Hi,
I am not being notified by an alert sound when I get am sms or voicemail or any of the notifications.
I believe everything is turned on to make the tone sound but it's silent. I am getting the notification in the with the flashing green LED and the notification icon in the title bar.
Please don't tell me I have a fault!! Grateful for any help.
Thanks
Same issue here.
Hard Reset solves it.
I found what trigger this problem for me is installation of a language pack.
I've read somewhere that someone said what triggered it for him was something about playing with location (country). What I saw is that after I install the language pack, my location is changed too (when I check in regional settings). Maybe this is the trigger...
I solved this by going into the Windows interface which can be damn tricky without a stylus!!
My Sense UI wasn't picking up the Windows settings, so the notifications were ticked in Sense but not in WinMo, and WinMo was the setting being used.
Possibly a fault with the Sense UI??
Thanks
Hi can you tell me how you mangaed to solve this
because i have been through the phne with a fine tooth comb and i cannot get that sms sent notification to work.
On closer inspection of the registry i do no think there is even a string for the notification (HKCU/ControlPanel/Notifications ect.
In the windows sound settings there are settings for sent MMS but not Sent SMS or Sent Message.
On My old Blackstone it seems there ere far more notification options to be enabled or disabled as you wish. If anyone has an idea what string or information we could add to the above registry setting then i think we might have nailed it?
HTC are you listening

I recently modified the registry on my ATT 8525 to eliminate the SMS Sent notification message (thanks to those that posted the info here, it's a god send!)
Anyways, during the process I inadvertently modified the wrong notification line and now I do not get any notifications when my alarm clock goes off (other than it going off to wake me up). I can't snooze it or even turn it off though, as the notification prompt doesn't appear.
I now have to turn off the volume, modify sounds/notifications to all off, and wait about two hours for the system to stop activitating the alarm. Needless to say I've missed many a phone call during this two hour "silent" timeframe.
Can anyone tell me where this is and what the setting should be?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hmmmm... after looking over the wiki I can't see that you affected anything else in that directory...
Was the change you made in the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings directory???
You might need to hard reset to get rid of the problem (resetting the registry back to stock). But I would wait to see if anyone else here has info that could help you.
I suggest you look around and get the palm threaded sms app (you can warez it well!).... Its the best thing since sliced bread! (Just make sure to change the default mms settings, original .cab was based on sprint network, but its very easy to change)
My two cents...

I don't recall. What I did was change what I thought was the setting. Then I sent a text. It didn't work, so I changed it back and started over. I did this three times. I think I changed something and forgot to change it back? Problem is I don't know what I didn't change back
I really don't want to do a hard reset, but I'm getting to that point. Now my phone alarm won't go off -- I think there are too many notifications back logged. When I soft reset it sounds like it's trying to play 100 alarms all at once
Can anyone else help out?
Indeed it may have happened anyway as the notification queue does get clogged. So before a hard reset you could clear duplicates using the likes of Scarybear Check Notifications (freeware) OR Sktools OR Memmaid neither free but have many other features beside clearing duplicate notifications.
Mike
Thanks for the advice...however, I can remove the notifications HKCU\System\State but it's only temporary. (scarybear does not list that program on their site any longer)
I really need to find out how to get notifications turned back on!
I know it's a reg edit that I missed changing back, I just don't know which one as I didn't realize the problem for a couple of days.
Anyone else have any help? Surely someone out there knows where these notifications are in the registry
Personally I say just take an hour of your free time and hard reset. Make sure everything is all good.
You might also use a program like HTCustom to do the regedit for you next time. That way you won't inadvertantly change anything.
Well I was really hoping to avoid a hard reset when all I need to do it make one simple registry change But it does appear that I may have to do it since no one seems to know where this change needs to take place.
I've probably spent an hour going through the registry looking for anything that could possibly be the alarm notification, but I've had no success.
Thanks to those of you that offered advice, I do appreciate it. Guess it's time to bite the bullet.
does vibration or popup notification of new messages/new mail work (both active and sleep state) on touch hd?
i do not get anything even i set it accordingly in the notification settings. all i see is a number pop up in touch flo tabs. deactivating touch flo does not help either.
any ideas?
Same problem here.
It worked sometimes, not it doesnt anymore and I dont know why (perhaps a confict with a program??).
Ascenca
sms notificatian not working anymore.
Same her not working anymore
its a bug that has been there since the HTC Diamond
fix?
anyway to fix it?
Please Help.
I cant live without sms notification!
There is a Registry tweak for the Diamond that fixes this - it should work on the HD too :
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\DisableSMSWakeUpEvent
set to "1" by default. meaning NO wake up to SMS message
set to "0" to enable wake up
EDIT : This was referenced from a Thread on the Diamond Forum
EDIT : Actually, having re-read your problem, this may not fix it - sorry.

Hd Tweak allows you to turn sms notification on.
Also make sure you have done
start--->settings--->phone---->services
then click on voice mail and text messages and then get settings.
Missing New Mail Missed Call Notification
I have the same problem phone does not display an new message or missed call icon in the upper tray. Seems to have happened after using HD Tweak and trying to hide the battery Icon, which is now in place of where the New Mail or Missed Call Notification Icon is normally displayed.
Anyone else expereincing this problem and any ideas for a solution?
Thanks.
Notification Problem Solved
Disconvered that I had an extra battery icon in upper tray from SPB plus. Removed thatand everything is now working fine.
My partner received his shiny new HTC Touch HD last week and after a few hours realised it was giving no notifications of text messages. Absolutely nothing as people have described here! It was new out the box and was making no noise, no notification on the Touch Flo, not even the standard Windows Mobile icon at the top. We tried every setting we could think of, and passed it to a friend whose had his HD for a couple of months now, who also couldn't find any good reason for its silence.
We gave in and hard reset the device (since it was only a couple of days old and he had yet to fill it with stuff!)
I'm glad to say, the hard reset solved all! No idea what the problem was, but it now gives all the correct notifications and obeys settings.
Just thought I'd share this in case others happen upon this problem since the thread gave us hope (in that others had the same problem) but no solution. I realise a hard reset isn't an elegant solution, but it did fix the problem
Fixed mine
Pauls suggestion for the diamond worked for me. My Touch HD running Energy ROM (WM6.5). I hadn't even noticed since my last ROM upgrade (i pressume) but my phone only alerted me to a new SMS when I had it switched on (not in stand-by). When I did notice I checked all the settings I could find for alerts and notifications, sms etc. The following registry tweeks fixed mine:

Hi,
long time lurker, first time poster.
Using the shapman configurator I've switched on sms sent notifications on my Touch HD. So now i get a little default windows beep (+ little notification pop up on screen) when i send a text.
However, I'd like to change the default beep to a custom sound, but in the sounds section there is no SENT TEXT message option to choose a new sound.
Is a registry amendment required to sort this out ?
thanks in advance.
It was possible to change the notification sound on my TytnII so I would think there's a way of changing it on the HD as well. It may need a registry tweak.
After updating my ROM to WWE 2.53 from HTC official web site there is no sound notificiation of SMS when the screen is off. Only LED blinking. I have tried to install the same hotfix released by HTC in the past but it is not accepted by this version of the ROM.
Any solution will be highly appreciated.
If you go to Settings/All Settings/Sounds & Notifications you get back to the "old" style setting screen, and can set sounds for any events.
Hope this helps.
No way
Unfortunately everything seems OK under those settings. Boxes are checked there, but still no sound when the screen is off.
Hadn't spotted your reference to the screen being off, sorry.
What about using TD2 Tools to check whether the SMS Wakeup Event is disabled, and if so resetting it?
hardreset
After not finding a solution I have hardreset the phone and everything is corrected. That means it was not from ROM update but a bug occured during my modifications to the registry I guess.
neverthless thanks a lot for your effort and interest to the subject werdna72.
This is an odd one. HTC's answer is to do a hard reset but if there is a reg entry or something I would rather try that first.
I have an alarm set with a sound I have placed in the windows directory. That works fine...
But when the alarm triggers it plays my default alert sound almost at the same time as my preferred alarm sound.
Has anyone come across that before?
Cheers
Rus
Yes mine does this - it plays an Alert sound right before the alarm tone rings, i think it's my text message alert sound..
It's not really an issue i guess just a 'quirk' ... doesnt bother me in the slightest..
i saw this on the stock ROM, and there are still quirks to the alarms in later winmo builds.
if you set an alarm from the home screen, i.e. the htc alarm, then go to all settings clocks and alarms alarms tab, you will see the sound changes aren't always carried over.
it doesn't do the dual sound on the later builds, but the settings pages still don't match.
Dual Alarm Sounds
Does no one know if there is a reg hack to cure this?
Having just got my phone set up the way i like it, I dont really want to have to load a new ROM just yet!
I was annoyed by this as well. For me it worked to disable the first entry in settings -> sound+display -> notification sounds. I don't know the exact term on english ROMs but I hope you get what I mean. It's where you set the sound for incoming mails and messages.
