Hi all,
I've reflashed my Hermes (Orange M3100) a few times, trying different ROMs, but after using one ROM for a while, my voicemail notifications stopped working correctly. My device receives the message telling it to display the o_o (tape) icon or remove it, but rather than doing that, it arrives as an SMS showing Δ@ or [email protected]
When first flashed, it didn't do this, and subsequent re-flashes, including the original Orange one, didn't correct the problem.
Anyone come across this before? I did a search, and looked through the WIKI, but didn't find anything.
Thanks,
Rich.
this happened to me, i phoned orange up, after bout a week, rang me back and said it has something to do with orange voicemail, nothing to worry about but annoying, ps my voicemail was swithced off

I have a notification message telling me that I have a voicemail on my MDAPRO and it just wont go away! I have checked my voicemail on numerous occassions and ther eare no messages.
I have re-applied the OS and it just keeps coming back to haunt me.
Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

I remember reading a similar problem you had before. Did you recently transfer and use your SIM on another phone?
The other person used his or her SIM on another phone when he/she got the message, but transferred the SIM on his/her Universal, creating the same notification you now are experiencing.
The solution according to him/her was to put the SIM back to the phone where you originally received the voicemail message and delete it from there. Once that you are sure there are no more messages, then put the SIM back to your Universal.
I get this sometimes with Orange UK.
Just call your phone provider and ask them to clear the notification from their end.
It basically happens when you delete your last message in your voicemail and you lose reception in between the time you finish clearing your voicemail and your service provider sending the voicemail indicator clearing flag.
The problem I usually get is if I am on international roaming I sometimes dont even get the flag coming up so messages build up (even when I come back to the UK) and only know about it when someone complains that I havent called them back after they left me a message.
Maybe this is just a problem with Orange UK ... not sure
It's not a problem with O2, they don't use the voicemail notification system, they just send a text!
Hi first post on here so hello. I have a HTC TYTN which is on the 3UK mobile network and i notice that i dont always recieve SMS messages and in fact a collegue of mine has the Orange version (unlocked with a 3 SIM) and also gets the same problem. I used to get this on a standard build TYTN and recently upgraded the Radio ROM to 1.35 and the OS to WM6 hoping that it was software related, but i still get missing texts. I just sent 10 texts from another 3UK mobile and only recieved 2...in fact when ever i have tested this you do seem to only get 2 out of the messages sent.
I also dont get delivery notifications, but not sure if this is related.
Any ideas? I would suspect that is most likely to do with 3's Network and as the phone is not officially support doubt anything will be done about it, but i thought i would just ask and see if anyone else has had this issue and had any suggestions...
Many thanks
Drew

Welcome to the wonderful world of Tytn - A rewarding if sometimes frustrating experience
I've read about folks not receiving or being able to send SMS at all, I've read about folk missing texts if the device freezes while in sleep mode, but I have not read about only receiving a proportion of texts sent. Still maybe you'll get some posts to cofirm or otherwise whether it is the three network.
As regards notifications. Normally notifications will be set to on, but perhaps not in your case. The following is taken from the wiki see brown bar near top of this page. This refers to the registry and is the change necessary to turn notifications off (as many seem to want). In your case it would be a reversal of the settings:
Disable SMS received notification
The following setting disable SMS notification and sms recieved icon on screen
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSAvailable = 0>
To enable again
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSAvailable = 1>
Cheers

Hi Mike,
Cheers for your reply, but what i meant by delivery notifications is when i send a SMS to someone and i get a sms back saying it got delivered. I think to be honest this is all part of the same problem. I know someone who works within the 3 messaging team so might ask him to trace the SMSs for me and see what happens.
Cheers
Do you get a notification saying "message sent"?
I have heard of cases (not on 3) where texts have been sent, and then the messaging application closed before this notification appears, and then when the app is opened again, 2 identical texts are sent.
It seems that if the app is not left open for sufficient time after sending (ie before the 'message sent' notification appears), the device can get confused.
Having said that, on t-mob, texting to and from o2, over the past 6 months there have been 1 or 2 occasions when the text sent has not been received for about 3 hours!
Hi,
Yea i have had the odd instance where friends have recieved multiple texts also occasional get the SMS was not able to be sent message.
I don't seem to get delay in recieving texts just never get some. Interesting a friend bought a newer TYTN last week (mine is august/september last year) and he doesnt have the issue and we both have same ROM versions.
Did another test today and out of 10 only got 6. Very strange, it is starting to drive me crazy LOL. Even more so that other people i know have same issue (out of the 6 people i know who have Hermes phones 5 have the issue all on the 3 UK mobile network either TYTN or Orange one unlocked). The 5 of use did buy the phones all about the same time.
I can only assume there has been some very minor change in the hardware or firmware between the earlier Tytns and the later ones.
I have logged a call with HTC Tech support europe and he said never seen this before but he will pass it to the dev team to look at...so be interesting what they come back with.

Hi guys,
I have the o2 XDA Neo for a week now, thanx to the forum I got the wireless working too, so everything is great. I do, however, have another strange little "problem", although I'm not entirely sure if it is a problem.
On the first day, at one moment, I heard the Neo beep, as if it had received a short message, and when I went to the phone, the LED was blinking orange. However, when I turned on the screen, there was no new message, nor there was a missed call, missed alarm, appointment or anything like this, just nothing. I later talked to the person that I thought would have sent me a message, and he confirmed that he did send a sms, but I never got it.. Not only it wasn't on the today screen, it was not to be found in the message folders too..
Today, I had my phone with me, on vibration, and Ï didn't feel it ringing, however at some point I checked it to see my battery status (it was ok, around 40%), and I saw the LED blinking orange again. There was again no message, no missed call or anything. The only calendar event was a birthday, for which I had received a reminder the previous day around 23:00. Also the strange thing was, no matter what I did, the LED kept blinking orange, only after a soft reset it returned to the green standby blinking...
Has anyone else experienced this? What do you think could be the cause?

It could just be a coincidence....
but ever since I've had my HD, I'm losing text messages. I've had people say they've sent me a text but I've never received them. I've even sat next to someone and got them to send me a text (with delivery reports turned on) and it says it's been delivered, but the text never arrived.
it happens randomly though so difficult to trace.
Like I said, it could just be coincidence, but this morning I went to my phone and found 4 text messages sat in my outbox that hadn't been sent...no warning, no alarm, they just never went. I had to reset my phone before they would go.
I'll give O2 a call but I know the response I'm going to get...nothing wrong that they can see!!!
starting to get frustrating as I could have missed lots of important texts
This is strange indeed. Have you also tried looking in the full inbox? Not just in TouchFlo 3D...
I don't use TF3D so it wont be that. I've just set up bluebook on o2 so if messages appear in there but not on my phone then I'll know it's a system problem and not a phone problem.
and since the O2 customer service system has been down ever since I got my phone they can't even help me look into it!!
I got my HD2 about a week ago, and from the moment I turned it on it's been telling me that I have 1 voicemail waiting. Except that I don't. I've checked my box multiple times just to be certain, nothing in there. I've tried dismissing the notice, it comes back. It constantly displays "1" in the lock screen. I've even flashed a custom ROM (Energy 23569, Jun 8) and it STILL says 1 voicemail waiting! How do I get rid of this phantom voicemail and have it report accurately?
I had that same problem for a while. I just fixed itself after I flashed to a certain energy rom.
I was having the same problem with mine. It was showing that I had a new voicemail from the moment I bought it. I just called T-Mobile and asked them to reset my voicemail box. The girl was very nice and when she tried to explain to me about the new HD2 update they had released, I hinted that I didn't have the stock ROM on my phone and she explained that was totally no problem. They know that with the current technology that people are doing that. She reset my voicemail box and the notification went away. You will have to setup your voicemail again after they reset it, but that takes no time at all.
same this is so annoying! any fixes will be much appreciated.
**** I just found this, might help. I have not tried it yet.
I had the same problem when I got mine. To fix it, all I did was go to the T-Mobile store and ask them for a new SIM card, they did a quick switch and it was gone, but im sure a custom ROM works too
