New text message notification problem [help please] - XPERIA X1 General

Hi,
I just bought my experia phone and encountered this problem where the phone does not vibrate when a new text message is received.
I have selected the vibrate option in the sounds and notification settings, but it does not work.
The phone vibrates when there's an incoming call though.
Is there something wrong with my phone?
Help greatly appreciated.

Did you set the vibrate option for the point "Messaging: New SMS" (you can chose it in the drop down menu in the "sound and notification" settings).
If it does not vibrate then, some other program seems to change the registry value for this setting.

Hello... I have the same problem... What can I do to slove this problem???
Shall I install a new ROM???
Thank you...

did you marked the items of "event","progams,"notification",
I think,that must be the problem on ROM,if you have been marked that three items and selected the correct option.try to flash other rom.
BTW,the strength of x1's vibrator is too weak,sometimes you can hear it vibrating clearly but can't feel it. good luck

Here's How To Disable The SMS Notification Bubble.

In Regedit, create a new key' Settings' so that it looks like this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings]:
Create a new string value under 'Settings':
"SMSNoSentMsg"
Value: 1
tried that still got the bubble.. does that work for the xdaII?
Do you guys means this:
Go to Start/Setting/Sound and Notifications/Notifications
Select SMS:New SMS Message (point 1)
Uncheck Display Message on Screen
Why on earth do you want to disable the notification bubble? I reckon it a highly appreciated icon

That's for incoming SMS. The one I posted deals with the SMS notification bubble that appears after a message has been sent.

Yes, it's specifically for the XDAII cos there's no notification bubble for the XDAI. You probably entered it wrongly.

i appreciate the notification too. But preferences are individual, I know there would be some out there who'd prefer not to see the bubble after sending an SMS.
it is importent issue, yes I do not want my I-Mate to power on when I receive a SMS. How can I do that. why because I got a lot and want to save power and the most importent is when the I-Mate in pocket and off than it is powered on by SMS some time I-Mate calls others while it is in my pocket.

I remember that someone once posted a message in this forum asking how to disable the SMS Sent notification. His problem was that he was sending an SMS message to a very large number of recipients and the continuous stream of SMS Sent notifications was very annoying. I also experienced the same problem when I changed my phone number and notified via SMS everyone in my contacts list. The barrage of beeps and SMS Sent notifications that followed was really annoying. It would have been good to disable the notification at least temporarily.
NOTE TO EVERYONE: We're talking about the SMS Sent notification, not the SMS Received notification.
Why I can't see any Settings in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings]?
Try to create that "Settings" key ... then create the SMSNoSentMsg string...
I just tried this and it DOES work...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings]
The only thing to maybe note is SMSNoSentMsg is a numeric value, not a string value like the above says.
SMS sent bubble settings...EUREKA
I have posted this sometimes back and here it is again...
[HKCU\ControlPanel\Notification\Default\]
Creat a new key string and name it for instance "System Notification"
:arrow:
goto your Sound & Notification settings and you shall find the same there with the default check boxes.
:arrow:
Uncheck the display message on screen...
:arrow:
Bingo.. there you go and you wont get the bubble anymore..
Feedback's appreciated...

Well, in that case there' a way to control this "inconvenience" by a registry trick..
\HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\
Give a value of "35" to the DWORD string "WakeupPowerOff".
This controls the # of seconds following a non-user input event wakeup such as an alarm, the # of seconds without user input activity before the system suspends. But mind you to keep it close to 30 secs because of Alarm settings otherwise you screw up the alarm power on and off which is not appropriate 8)

My question is:
Will the SMS-Notfication sound still display or not? I want to hear it, but i don't want the screen to power on when receiving an sms.

After when you have edited the registry. You can modify the display, sound and duration of red LED from the Sound & Notifications thru the Control Panel..
Any luck... :?:
I think it works! Although its stupid to post yourself, i tried - and there you go! If you get an sms, the notification Is still there, but the bubble only pops up, if you tick the notification icon. That's just what i wanted.

on my imate JAM you can have (talking about SMS IN) this even without the registry edit. it is in settings sounds & notifications just untick display on screen message and you will only get the envelope when an sms comes in.... tapping the envelope will show you the message. As for the SMS SENT reg edit I will be trying it now... I'll report how it works out too.
Ok I tried this out (SMSNoSentMsg) and it works for me
SMSNoSentMsg

Incoming SMS no notification ...

Hi,
Upgrade to WM6 for the BA, but when there is an incoming sms the device won't notify and LED light no indication at all when the device in standby mode. after wake up the device then i can see there is new sms there. anyone can help ???
same problem here.. not even a sound to know of an incoming sms...
Yep, I get the same thing.
No red light, no sound, nothing. Then I wake it from sleep, and the message appears with sound and led.
Very annoying.
Same prob
Same problem with my BA
Use some app which replaces the SMS notification with its own for example freeware SmileySMS - you can find it in the Development and Hacking section of this forum.
i've already test with my XDA IIs and it work fine, when i receive sms in standy mode, i still receive notification by red light, sound notification, and vibrate.
It seems to be random with mine...sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
hi.. the problem of flash red l ight and sond cant be corrected on "sound and notifications"
for sms work fine (inclusive on sleep mode) you must let the messaging program run on memory on the ba. if you close the program, you could not for mose times recive sms . this issue is on wm5 to..
sorry for the ingles
Gee ! i have the same problem . i noticed that after reading this thread Duhh.. hey wtf ? how to fix that ? i understand now why ive been missing all ma messages . ANY FIX PLEASE ????
I had the same issue, and I managed to solve it by going to Sounds & Notifications->Notifications
Select Event: Messaging: New text message
disabled "Play sound", pressed OK
enabled again "Play sound", pressed OK (I also enabled Vibrate)
Don't know if it was because of this, but it is working now (Made reset and it still works).
Didnt work for me
Sorry to hear that. As I said, I don't know if it was that (try different enabled/disabled combinations for Messaging: New text message maybe?).
I also installed WM6_SoundFix_.cab from the AddOn.rar file.
I think this trick worked for me too... But when the BA is on sleep mode.. the alert will only trigger on the second incoming SMS. I have tried this several times.

I am not sure if the notification tone will cause this problem. I try alarm5 (which is in ROM), it works. With other tones, sometimes it only sound halfway. Also, the text messaging program must be running in background.
If you switch off BA when the screen is in text messaging, it will sound on incoming sms, but LED not red.
u need enabled this in "Sound&Notification-New text message-flash light". Red led work, no problem
please cheque returns your program
is there software contra
example smile sms

i just installed SecretSMS and i think it helps me with this SMS notification probelm tho not completely. It manages to play the sms notification but doesn't show up the screen.. well i think it's better than nothing, right?
however, anyone know how to set rules for SecretSMS? i try to find a manual, but, ... not found - -~
There are two files,SoundFix.cab & WM6_SoundFix.cab

Customization question?

Does the x1 have a way to customize the sms(email,mms) notification sounds because in Sounds&Alerts there's one option: to change the ringing melody only.
when i got into settings sounds & notifications notifications

options like what sound to play and if it also vibrate
both sendt sms and recieved sms and ... also for mms

Really? I have the stock ROM and it allows both alarms + ringtones + mp3s etc.
Which ROM do you have?
i'm not sure...how can i see what rom i have?
...and one more thing-there's a logo VODAFONE at the back of the phone?Does this mean that they've messed up the menus?
i found it ...but i stll don't know how to check the rom...
THis is a basic part of Windows Mobile, I can't see Vodafone messing with it. You are going into "Settings" then "Sounds & Notifications" correct? Or I suspect you haven't chosen the correct event in the drop down box, as for Messaging:New Text Message you don't get a Ring to change, it asks you which sound to play...

how can i activate vibration for a new message?

Hi,
my HD2 dont vibrate if i get a new sms. is it possible to activate this feature?
In "sounds & notifications" i set the option in Message: New Message "vibrate" but nothing changed.

Maybe you already did that, but to be certain:
you'll need the sounds and notications from WinMo 6.5 and not from HTC. Go to settings tab - menu (bottom right) -more - sounfs and notications - notications tab - new message - tick vibrate and it should work.
Hi kuzibri,
thanks for your help. i did this but if i get a new message the hd2 dont vibrate

[Q] SMS no vibration

Good morning guys!
my problem is, that I dont get a sms vibration wheather the vibration is checked. have anyone a solution? I'm very thanksful for any ideas.
with best reguards.

Do you get vibration from other things ? e.g. if you turn the ringer volume down until the phone is in vibrate mode, does it vibrate when you press the volume down button then ?
What ROM are you running ?
I had the same problem when I installed Handcent SMS (I suppose conflict between stock sms app and handcent)
try "Sound Manager" on the market.
Run it and go to "vibrate settings" you will be able to activate the vibration to your sms app again
So Guys,
I found the solution. Sound Manager is practicable but it doesnt helped.
After change of a few settings, I found the solution.
You must go to "Messeges" (Nachrichten) -> Menue -> Settings and check "vibration". The checkbox in "general settings" doesnt help, only the checkbox in "messeges". I hope, that can help other to solve the problem.
With best reguards
