Does anyone know how to turn on the repeat notification for missed call or for messages waiting?
Because the company I work for in in BIG financial trouble I am getting many more calls than usual. And I'm missing more calls. I went into Sounds and Notifications and tried to turn on the repeat notification option for "Phone:Voice mail" and Phone:Missed call" but both are grayed out.
Thanks for the help.

I've set a very loud noise for notifications of appointments, missed calls, arrived SMS's and so on. But Amsterdam is a noisy city, so it often happens that I do not hear the initial notification. Of course I can see them once I see my Today screen. But I'm one of those rare people who's not staring at the today screen all day ;-)
appointment notification settings has a check box for "repeat". Very nice, but that doesn't repeat anything as long as the notification dialog is still on.
Missed calls and arrived SMS's do not have that repeat setting by default.
And I do not really understand what the use is of a loud notification right after I missed a loud ringtone. I want to be notified later on until the device sees that I take action.
I found out that I could turn that on by replacing a registry key value from 9 to 40000019 (I believe, I can check that later). Borrowed that setting from the appointment notification.
The bad news is that the notification after a missed call/SMS now doesn't stop repeating after I've read the SMS or followed up the missed call. It goes on and on till I either reset or till it drains the battery.
Any suggestions from different registry settings up to commercial software are welcome.

Lately I have had people telleing me they have called. But the phone showes no missed calls. Sometimes I also have calls from friend Ihave as contacts, but the sreen only keep showing Home-screen or just the locked screen.
Anyone with a similar problem and suggestions? I still run the 1.48.40.1 ROM - have had no reason for upgrade, until now??

Are you sure you have signal when they call, If there is no signal your phone wont show anything.
If you are having this problem when you have signal then I would suggest possibly a hard reset and see if that works.
You are right about the signal.
Problem is, to-day I had a call I didn't catch soon enough. It was ringing normally, but when finsihed, the phone showed no missed call, which it should have. So I had a clear "evidence" of some malfunction. But maybe I try a hard reset befor upgrading if no one else has other suggestions - seems a less fearful procedure...
do you have any mods installed like s2u2 or cht? or something similar that deals with calls or shows information on missed calls?
btw a hard reset will delete all your data so backup ( but dont use backups between rom versions)
not sure if this will help...but is your missed call notification disabled?
you can check in many ways, but the easiest is to go to the "Settings" tab in Sense...then choose "Sound & Display", then go into "Notification Sounds" under "Ring and Notifications" and make sure the "Missed call" option is set to "On".
Thanks a lot for the effort. Unfortunately, it was ON.. And it must be, if it does not turn itself on and off, then every other missed call does show up telling me so...
Hi, does anyone know how to disable the vibrate alert in the DHD when a call connection is established?
Go to Menu > Settings > Sound > Vibrate you can turn it on or off.
It also affects vibrations when Notifications come up.

Actually i did it, but it doesn't effect vibrate on calls
I actually have this problem too...if someone can give a solution to it...it would be awesome.
Just checking, you do mean the small vibration when you make a call and the other person answers?
Just tried it on mine and that option definitely controls the call connection vibration. Untick and the vibrate stops when the number answers.
Sorry if yours is different somehow.

Ya... I am referring to the small vibration delivered whenever a carrier notification is delivered. Call connect in particular.....
This was a helpful feature on my S4 that allowed me, when receiving a call, to swipe up the "Reject with Message" tab and choose a pre-canned SMS response. It worked really well.
A few months ago, this option simply disappeared.
I can still go into Call Settings and set the messages, but when I receive an incoming call there is no longer a "Reject with Message" tab option. So I am unable to actually Reject the calls.
Can anyone help me figure out how to get that back?
In case anyone else is having this problem (when googling I saw posts on other sites where people had this issue) I figured out what is happening...
Somehow my phone ended up in Driving Mode. That is what changed the Call Answer screen.
Deactivating this mode switched it back.
Hi, I thought Sidelight would do the trick, and it works great, EXCEPT for the fact that it only alerts once and then stops. Often I'm out of the work vehicle and I won't see that notification alert and will end up not knowing anything came through.
Is there an alternative option for this phone that will simply give a recurring visual alert on the screen for calls and texts that I've missed?
