I have a brand new Cingular 8125. I have it checking for email updates from 4 different (POP) accounts every 15 minutes. ROM Version 2.25.11.1 WWE (default). I have every possible Notification in 'Sounds and Notifications' to beep, ring, flash and vibrate when new emails, sms and mms come in. Text messages make a sound and vibrate. I can't for the life of me get the emails to notify me when they come in. I've tried Inbox open, Inbox Minimized and Inbox Closed.
Does anyone have any idea on this? I've searched this forum for a good answer to this question but I haven't been able to find what I'm looking for unfortunately.
Thanks!
On My Wizard if I go to Settings > Sounds and Notifications>Notifications I only get the option to add sounds to "Messaging: new email message" I don't get any other options for emails (Many more for other events). I'm not sure where you are seeing the options to add sounds for "Inbox open, Inbox Minimized and Inbox Closed."
I apologize for not really being that clear. What I meant was that I tested whether it would vibrate with the Inbox open on the screen, with the Inbox minimized and with the Inbox completely closed. What appears to have happened is, after setting those parameters in the Sounds and Notifications settings, the Wizard wouldn't start vibrating for emails until I Soft Reset it. Once I soft reset it later that afternoon, it appears to have worked fine.
Thanks!

Is there anyway to add a alert to other events not listed in the alerts menu.
At the moment there is no alert for when pop3 mail arrives.
TIA
Hi,
Try: control panel, personal tab, sounds and notifications, notifications, then click the dropdown box and look for "Messaging: New e-mail message" then choose your sound, let me no how u get on!
tried that already...no joy :-(
Hi
I had to do a complete ROM reload after a complete crash / lock-up.
All fine and dandy, but now I get no notifications of email / VM / SMS - either audible or visual. This is a right pain in the proverbials, as I now have to open the beast up to check for anything rather than just listen out or look for a red flashing LED.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Thanks
have u tried start> settings>personal tab>sounds and notifications>notifications, then from drop down menu anything you need a sound for, such as Messaging:New text message,
Yes - I've set everything as before
e.g. permanent flash for a voice mail or email
This sounds like what ended up being a corrupt notification on my device. Search for 'check notifications' software, it will find and delete all your duplicate notifications.
I was screwing around in HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Inbox/Svc trying to delete my outlook account, and when i deleted the folder i noticed that my phone stopped vibrating when i received text messages or emails.
I have since updated the ROM from the HTC website and the outlook account has come back, but i'm still not getting any vibration on messages.
Does anyone know how i can get it to vibrate again?
And i'm still looking for a way to remove the outlook safely - any ideas?
thanks
i know this is simple but is worth a shot if you havent already;
check sounds and notifications (in settings)
check in the notifications tab using drop down menu
Yeah - i have vibrate checked there. it totally sucks because i have to keep looking at my phone to tell if i have a new message
Try installing third party apps like phone alarm and use their profile settings to set vibrate - see if that works.

Hi
I've gout my Touch HD syncing with Exchange Server, and so constantly get a 'Notification' on the screen that requires dismissing, as new e-mails arrive.
(I thought I would be able to go to Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications, then find the Messaging: New e-mail message and uncheck the 'display message on screen' but this isn't checked)
Are you only able to switch notifications on or off globally? I guess you still get an icon to indicate a missed call or sms.... what do other people do?
Thanks for any advice / comments
Try one of the Tweak software packages out there, I am sure there is something in there for notifications.
Regards
Tweak HD lets you switch SMS sent notifications on/off, but that's all.....
this has been asked previously, but went unnoticed. has anyone figured out the way to wake up the device if you receive an email while in standby. i use hd tweak to enable wake up for sms, and to enable wifi on standby, but there's no point in that if the device doesn't wake up on new email.
I have the same problem with all the ROMs I've tried.
Never seem to get notification of new emails as and when my hotmail account is automatically checked as per set schedule.....
do you want the light to flash
if yes you should go to sounds& notifications and click on new email were it allows you to change tones display message on screen and flash when recieving a new email.
if i receive an email in standby, the sound plays, but LED doesnt flash, nor does the device wake up. i was hoping since it was made possible for sms, we can make it happen for email as well.
I'd like this too... I have trawled through google search and these forums but no luck yet....
Have you tried going to Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Event "Messaging: New e-mail message" and then selecting 'Display message on screen' & 'Flash lite for...' etc?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, but that doesn't work either. Only the LED flashes, but the device doesn't wake up. The reason why I want it is that the LED doesn't flash if the device is being charged at the same time.
