No Sound for incoming SMS, No PopUp, Nothing | PLEASE HELP!!

Hello!
I did a Hard-Reset, since some things weren't working fine.
After having finished the installation, I recognized that there is
NO SOUND
NO POPUP
NO BLINKING OF LED
NO VIBRATION
when I receive a SMS.
I don't know, what I can do to "repair".
PLEASE HELP!!

have you tried
Start>Settings>Sounds & Notifications>Notifications>Event: Messaging: New Text Message

...of course I tried this.
Any other ideas?

Did you by any chance hide the ActiveSync (POP3) folder in your messaging application by editing your registry? I suppose the chances you did are quite small... Then again, it never hurts to ask.

First of all, are you getting other notifications? I.e. incoming call, etc?
What has worked for me when this has happened is to go to sounds/notification and select the sound to use when a new text message is received, then select the play button beside it to play a demo of the audio. For some reason, it seems like that helps my device to register the wake up action to take when a new call is received.
Hope this helps!

Yes, I removed the ActiveSync-account and the Hotmail-account in the registry.
Is there a connection between removing these accounts and hearing no sms-notifications?
@lulugirl896
For an incoming call it works fine.
I also played the sound in the options (like you wrote) but nothing changes.

Try returning the ActiveSync key the way it was. The Hotmail one shouldn't make a difference.

Could you write the structure of the registry-keys, since I don't know the old state... ?

Unread SMS not even there!

Hi, my JASJAM shows an unread SMS when there is no SMS there.
Not sure how to resolve.
I have the Windows Live WM6 cooked ROM installed, what info will i lose if i hard reset?
Any ideas on how to resolve?

Maybe the Message is in the SIM card, not in the phone...
Download and install SIM Message to browse your SIM card storage:

FixUnreadCount.exe
try this WM software "FixUnreadCount.exe" just made for this problem.

thanks
thank you a million. worked a treat . . . you made my morning.

I _think_ I've had this problem before, and I believe I solved it by using PIMbackup to backup my messages and then re-import them, chosing the option to clear down messages before impot.

thanks

Thank you so much for posting that file and to whoever made it. Found it using the Google search of the forums. Messaging was showing 1 unread message in my outbox which was really annoying me, but this tool worked a treat!

Import messages from SIM to my phone
Hello,
I have an imate Jasjam. My SIM card has a few SMS messages that do not show up on my Jasjam. If I put the SIm in another phone, I can read those messages.
Any idea if there is a software that lets me copy text messages from SIm card to teh phone?

fixunreadcount.exe didn't work for me either so here is what I did:
1) Backup using Sprite. Uncheck messages so they aren't included in the backup.
2) Hard reset the device
3) Restore using Sprite
4) Re-setup your email accounts
How to hard reset (from the wiki):
Hard Reset **NB** This cannot be performed while the device is connected/charging!**
* Press and hold both soft keys
* Using a stylus, press and hold the soft reset button at the bottom of the phone
* Keep all three buttons pressed until the keypad lights turn off and then flash
* Release the soft reset button while still pressing the soft keys
* Let go of the two soft keys once the message "This operation will delete all your personal data, to manufacturer default" appears on screen
* Finally, press the green call button to perform the hard reset, or press other key to cancel

will this work on an htc diamond? I have a pesky message that wont clear...

@willybean
I have a Sprint HTC Diamond and it's constantly showing me 1 unread email, even when there are none. I tried the FixUnreadCount.exe, did a soft reset and it didn't change a thing. It is an annoyance but I guess I can just ignore it. If you find/know of a fix tho.. love to hear it.

Thanks so very much
This worked great on my 8525. Copied the exe to the storage card, ran it and reset. Message cleared.

worked like a charm!!

Thanks dude. Worked like a charm on my Tilt2.

If your sms is in threaded mode, you should read this, if not just ignore it:
"I have met this before, the fact is you have an unread sms in some thread , and this unread sms is relatively old. You need to find this sms in a lot of thread. Or you can switch to normal sms mode, in this way it will be easier to find the unread one."

Thanks to You!
This worked GREAT!

Thanks!
Worked perfectly on my Touch Pro running WM6.5 Energy rom.
It was drivin me nuts!

Thank You!

It was driving me insane too. This program saved me from throwing my phone against the wall as hard as I could.

MS voice command waking device

Installed MSVC a few days ago and now every time I get a text message the Diamond wakes up, even though I have it set in registery not to wake on SMS. I know I could probably stop it from speaking text messages and this would probably fix the issue but I do like voice notification for the texts and I'm sure when I first installed MSVC it didn't wake the device, has only been doing this for a day now.
Anyone know how to fix this or am I gonna have uninstall MSVC
Thanks in advance.

Use SKTools to clean up bad entries or hard reset the mudderfugger..

Hard Reset!!!! a bit extreme lol, will have a go at SKtools though
Does anyone else have this problem?

SMS/MMS/Email ringtone problem (and vibration)

Hi everybody, i have a very big problem
I bought a HTC Touch 2. Very cool phone, works fine, looks great BUT... when i want to change the SMS or MMS ringtone to my own, it doesn't work... no sound, no vibration...
I try it: send an SMS from an other mobile, and it doesnt work. I get my sms, but the phone dont alert me (no music, no vibr.) another problem is: i choose the: sound and vibr options, BUT when i save this and go back the menu, the phone change automatically to ONLY VIBR... but it doesnt work too... (U know: settings, sound, and the bottom (alert sound, not the special) and new message -> vibr on-off. its only appear when i set an own ringtone)
If i choose a basic ringtoone, its fine, dont change automatically to only vibr, i can change it to every option, BUT it doesnt alert me too...
summa summarum: SMS-MMS-Email alerts doesn't work on my mobile. No music, No vibr.
HARD RESET done: doesn't help
I hope somebody can help me.
Love 'n' Peace
(And sorry my very bad english )

Pls help me, im afraid that my mobile is faulty
everthing is okay, only the ringtone is bad.
Incoming call works fine with my own ringtone.

Nobody?

have you tried different mp3's?

I tried everything, its doesnt work. No sound, no vibration...
only incoming call is okay

sorry, I was wrong, I didn't read correctly.
I think SMS sound only works with .WAV files.
have you tried this?

Well i dont know what the basic sound format, but i think they are wav. And the other problem is, my phone dont vibration, and is set on. (Its only SMS)
So i don't know when i received an SMS, only the Green LED lights on the top

I haven't heard of this prob before.
have you logged a call with HTC?

No, i think there isn't Hungarian HTC corporations., so i think i go back to my service and i hope they solve my problem..
but thanks a lot.

Some rote questions:
1. Volume-setting: vibration or silent or on?
2. Settings (start - settings - "sounds and notification"): notification - new sms ?
3. Have you made a hardreset?
4. Does your TD2 make any sound (incoming call)?

SMS delivery notification

Install "Advanced Config", under "Messaging" you could it enable.
If Advanced Config shows an error message when you start it, then install NETCF35 afterwards.
But be careful with the settings in this tool!

Ok thx a lot. I did it but still no sound.

I would wonder if you would have sound after that ...
Make a hardreset. And if the problem persists, it's a hardware fault.
And please remove the sdcard and the sim-card bevor you make the hardreset.
Does your TD2 have warranty? - if "yes" then let it repair.
Is the rom the original one? - if "yes": what version?

i used to be with the first 6.5 wm version after i got this problem i downloaded the latest rom and updated. Already done the hardreset.

Interestingly my phone developed a similar problem over the last weekend, the ring tone plays fine, the htc start up works fine but no other sound will work. (Callers can't hear me and I can't hear them, even with the earphones plugged in)
I tried a hard reset but had no luck, contacted HTC and they reckon I'll need to send it in for repair (but as I think it's out of warranty I bet they'll charge me for the joy of it... )

Had a similar problem before this. Happened after I installed the SRS WoW HD cab.. 1st install said there were no drivers. 2nd install didn't show the error but on both instances, phone made no sound whatsoever. It'd just vibrate.. uninstalled it and everything started working again.. So, worth a look. The ROM might have a failing sound driver..
First course of action, naturally, get a new ROM. I'm on Photon with Sense. And thru sense, you could assign a ringtone to both calls and SMS without needing Advance Config..

For some reason this also happened to me, so with the help of some of the excellent guys on XDA, I wrote a Mortscript. See here
