hello,
I'm having a strange problem where my sms notification just won't happen.
when i recieve an sms, all that happens is on my today screen, the "no unread messages" will change to "1 unread message" (or whatever the text is), and thats it.
in my sounds and notifications screen i have it set to
1) play a sound
2) vibrate
3) flash the top right light indefinitely
4) display on screen notification (i assume this is the bit where it pops the bubble down with the message text in it)
it doesnt do any of this!
and it doesn't seem to make a difference if i turn off all the notifications, or turn some of them on, it still doesn't work.
it seems to have happened since it hard reset itself a couple of weeks ago... i dont think it's worked since then..
thanks guys.

Hello,
I've got the same problem, when I check sounds and notifications screen and tap the PLAY icon the notify sound sounds ok, I select another sound for testing.
Sending a sms doesn't trigger the newly selected sound.
Can someone post the registry hive to check if something went wrong in the registry?
Thanx in Advance, annoying that SMS notifications doesn't work anymore..

I Didn't hard reset whatsoever.... so little difference.
In the end i think i fixed this by hard resetting again.. sorry! it was a few months ago now.
I have my phone set in vibrate mode. For incoming calls and text messages the phone vibrates accordingly. However when I have an email notification (Exchange push) the phone displays the notification but does not vibrate. I have set the notification settings up identically for text and email.
Has anyone else had this problem? Or does anyone know a solution?
Try this
Start-settings-sounds & notifications-notifications tab
From the event menu press on the down arrow and select messaging: new email message
Untick Play sound and tick vibrate then hit ok on the top right
Hopefully that will work
I tried that, but still no luck.
Oddly though, when the device is on it vibrates ok. It's only when it's off that it doesn't vibrate.
The problem was fixed in WM5 AKU 2.2.
Sadly it has returned in WM6.
I tried Wizard Love, which I believe is AKU 2.3 I can't remember if this fixed the issue? I don't think I had it working..
Hi,
Upgrade to WM6 for the BA, but when there is an incoming sms the device won't notify and LED light no indication at all when the device in standby mode. after wake up the device then i can see there is new sms there. anyone can help ???
same problem here.. not even a sound to know of an incoming sms...
Yep, I get the same thing.
No red light, no sound, nothing. Then I wake it from sleep, and the message appears with sound and led.
Very annoying.
Same prob
Same problem with my BA
Use some app which replaces the SMS notification with its own for example freeware SmileySMS - you can find it in the Development and Hacking section of this forum.
i've already test with my XDA IIs and it work fine, when i receive sms in standy mode, i still receive notification by red light, sound notification, and vibrate.
It seems to be random with mine...sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
hi.. the problem of flash red l ight and sond cant be corrected on "sound and notifications"
for sms work fine (inclusive on sleep mode) you must let the messaging program run on memory on the ba. if you close the program, you could not for mose times recive sms . this issue is on wm5 to..
sorry for the ingles
Gee ! i have the same problem . i noticed that after reading this thread Duhh.. hey wtf ? how to fix that ? i understand now why ive been missing all ma messages . ANY FIX PLEASE ????
I had the same issue, and I managed to solve it by going to Sounds & Notifications->Notifications
Select Event: Messaging: New text message
disabled "Play sound", pressed OK
enabled again "Play sound", pressed OK (I also enabled Vibrate)
Don't know if it was because of this, but it is working now (Made reset and it still works).
Didnt work for me
Sorry to hear that. As I said, I don't know if it was that (try different enabled/disabled combinations for Messaging: New text message maybe?).
I also installed WM6_SoundFix_.cab from the AddOn.rar file.
I think this trick worked for me too... But when the BA is on sleep mode.. the alert will only trigger on the second incoming SMS. I have tried this several times.

I am not sure if the notification tone will cause this problem. I try alarm5 (which is in ROM), it works. With other tones, sometimes it only sound halfway. Also, the text messaging program must be running in background.
If you switch off BA when the screen is in text messaging, it will sound on incoming sms, but LED not red.
u need enabled this in "Sound&Notification-New text message-flash light". Red led work, no problem
please cheque returns your program
is there software contra
example smile sms

i just installed SecretSMS and i think it helps me with this SMS notification probelm tho not completely. It manages to play the sms notification but doesn't show up the screen.. well i think it's better than nothing, right?
however, anyone know how to set rules for SecretSMS? i try to find a manual, but, ... not found - -~
There are two files,SoundFix.cab & WM6_SoundFix.cab
I have installed those,the sounds very well
My English is veeeeeeeeery pool ...................

Hi guys
I wondered how I was missing all the texts my mates were sending me and then I found that when I get a text the sound is not working for some reason.
I've checked the sounds are there and working - it's set to "Rooster" sound which is fine (have tried others too) and the volume is turned up (ringtones work fine) but it still won't make sound when a text comes in.
I've done a soft reset etc but still not fixed it. Is there some other setting it could be?
Everything I can think of is right but there must be some other reason why there is no noise when I receive a text.
Any ideas please?! Thanks
try settings / sounds and notifications / enable sounds .... check if the box for events is ticked and the notifications too...
hope this helps
Notifications was switched on as that's what controls the sound settings for texts/MMS/email etc, but Events shouldn't need to be on and I don't normally have it enabled.
Cheers for the suggestion and I've turned it on anyway just in case but I don't think it's that.
Disable the New SMS notification option on "Sounds and notifications", then reset your device, after you reset try to go and enable the new sms notification again ! then try and see if iti works !
i had the same problem with my HD 1.14 with arabic poackage rom, I flash it with 1.19 and the problem didnt go till I made the disable-reset-enable !

Thanks folks - have tried/checked both those options and no result yet.
What is the ringtone you have selected ? Make sure that the file for the selected ringtone is available under the Windows folder.
By trial and error, I found that SMS ringtones are picked up from Windows folder only, whereas all the other tones (incoming call, reminder etc) are picked up from Windows/Rings or My Documents/My Ringtones folders.
Hope this helps .....
Cheers !!
For some reason, I did another reset and it seems to have cured it. Weird!!
Thanks very much for the help guys.
Strangest thing happened today.... all reminders failed to sound on my HD2. The items I set on the calendar and has reminders turned on - the HD2 failed to sound the reminder - there's not even a message bubble on the top bar to indicate I missed a reminder. It's as if I never set a reminder. This caused me to miss meetings today.
I have not installed anything or edited the registry yesterday and it was working fine till then.
Items I checked -
1. System clock - it's correct
2. the calendar item - it's today.
3. settings\sounds & notifications\sounds\"Enable sounds for"
Events checked
Programs checked
Notifications checked
4. settings\sounds & notifications\notifications\reminders\
Play sound checked
display message on screen checked
What could be the problem?
missed calendar reminders
Ive had the same problem
It was working fine just until yesterday and all of a sudden the reminders just stopped.
Any solutions out there would be very much Appreciated .
reminder alert
My reminders seem to be working again
The only thing I did in between it not working and when it started working was to sync the phone with my calander on my computer
Seems ok for now
Hello,
I've the same problem.
My reminders don't work... Even if I create an event now, that should remind me in 30 minutes, nothing happens.
Settings are similar to what you described in your first post.
So, does anybody have a solution? How did you solve it?
THANKS!
