Avoid sound signaling for SMS receiving acknowledgement?

Hmm i use SMS receiving acknowledgement by standard.
Can i turn off the signaling for it?
I think just a popup is enough. I dont need a "beep beep" on my phone immediateley after sending a SMS to another.

Hello messia,
As the SMS notification is a simple SMS you recieve from the network when the recipient get your SMS, you have to deactivate the sounds for incoming SMS's.
You can controll all notifcations in the settings:
Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifcations
(Start > Einstellungen > Sounds & Benachrichtigungen > Benachrichtigungen)
If you choose "Messaging: new SMS" (Messaging: neue SMS) , you can turn off the sound for incoming SMS messages.
The downside of this is that sound notification is disabled for all incoming SMSs, not only for the send notifcations.
Greetings,
BGK

thx but that is not the problem, the problem is that i want a sound for a new sms i get, but i don`t want a sound for a sms that someone receives from me.
A popup for this is sufficient

I remember turning OFF the notification of sent messages previously, i think the info is in the forum somewhere, but it turns it all off. Both sound and popup.
I think it was a registry hack too. Was a long time ago, im fighting wm2005 now so havent got time to check back how i did it sorry.

yes i know how to deactivate completely but i just want to deactivate the annoying sound

it`s impossible, isn`t it?

Yes, it is impossible. The SMS you receive from the network looks the same as an sms from one of your contacts to your phone. The device cannot distinguish one SMS from another, so you can only choose to switch of the sound for all sms-es. You can also choose to disable delivery notification entirely, but then you will only get a pop-up that the sms is send, not when it is received by the other party, since the network will not send you an sms to notify you of delivery.
However, even when I am writing this, I consider two issues:
1. There is some program floating around that enables blocking certain senders of sms. That means however that the sms will not reach your phone, so this is bascially the same result as with switching sms delivery notification off.
2. BUT! Darek, the creator of DKToday ( search for him on this forum with the term DKToday, or his name dkot) uses the SMS delivery for counting the number of sms send this month. Basically, he could not find a way to extract sent sms info from the system, so instead, he chose to count the returning delivery notification sms from the network as a measure of the no. of sms sent by you. So, in some way, he must be able to distinguish delivery notification sms from normal sms, as sent by your contacts. I recommend you to contact him and ask him how that is done, maybe he can tell you what the distinguishing feature is between normal incoming sms and network sms.
Edit: After re-reading your first post in this thread, I may have given you an answer to a problem you did not have. Do you want to cancel out the sound for the incoming network delivery notification sms, or the sound from the pop-up after sending the sms ( the system sound)? For the delivery sms, see my answer. For the system sound: I have no clue...

I have written to him. Maybe he can help

sms alert problem

hi guys
I find problem whenever an incoming sms comes. I can't hear any alert or sound which i assigned. when i go to notifications & alerts. Its weird I notice that the "PLAY" checkbox is unchecked automatically for "Messaging New text mail" but perhaps I had checked option to play the alert. I don't know why its happening.
I have installed the following applications in my Today screen.. Phonealarm, claunch & Vitosoundexplorer. I have a doubt is it due to phonealarm settings.. its causing problem. because I saw the settings for phonealarm, where it as option to alert for SMS. and alert assigned is "system" I tried to change that and assigned my own alert. but even then only when sms comes. it only beeps once. is it the phonealarm taking over... kindly suggest what to do.
thanks and regards

unread sms notification

Is there a way to set up a sound/message to remind me of unread sms?
Maybe something similiar like "Phone: missed call" event under Sounds&Notifications but for SMS.
Ofcourse blinking LED changes color when there are unread sms, unanswered phone calls or reminders but still it would be nice to be reminded with sound of unread sms.

I use phonealarm its great.
You can set it to alert you every so many seconds for a maximum time etc.

threaded sms app

I have the threaded sms app and for the love of god i cannot make it vibrate when i receive a text message. Can someone please explain to me how to make my phone vibrate when i get a text message through the threaded sms app.

any help would be great

have you tried going to sounds and notifications and turning on vibrate for palm sms...start-->settings (personal) -->sounds and notification-->notification-->select the one for the sms threaded text and then select vibrate.
let me know if this helps

i selected vibrate and it still doesnt vibrate.

try this
try going to start->setting->sounds&notifications->make sure the programs and notifications(alarms, reminders) are checked off.

I cant get mine to STOP vibrating on the SMS. It also makes the noise i chose, but vibrates first. now thats annoying!

Did you do the hack to turn off your LEDs? That also stops vibration. Is it just with SMS or with all vibration?

you can fix it with using an application that has feature
Something to note (as a result of the tweak)
1. Missing Unread count on the Messaging tab
First thing you will notice if you do not execute step 3 (as above), is that the messaging tab will never show any unread count bubble, even if there is a new incoming SMS. That said, you will still get SMS notification (i.e. notification sound, notification icon in the taskbar, etc)
Step 3 basically is a workaround fix utility, that fixes the problem by monitoring new incoming SMS and set unread count appropriately. It'll monitor the notification queue, and unset the read count once you processed the SMS notification. However, due to the way HTC implements its notification manager, which takes over standard Windows notification management, in some rare cases, the notification queue might be missed, and as a result you might see the read count not unset even though you have taken the necessary action (i.e. open the new SMS, dismiss the SMS notification, or set new SMS to read). When this happens, just soft-reset your HD, and you should be fine.
2. Missing MMS function
I have a temporary solution to enable MMS function in the Windows text messaging application. However, there's abit of problem in the time of the message transmitted, so I'm not posting the solution yet. You can however, do a google search on "arcsoft MMS" application, if this is one area you cannot live without. Originally Posted by zenkinz
