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,

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 confirmation options

Hi,
for each SMS I send, I get a confirmation SMS, which is nice, and I like that. But I would prefer that those special SMS don't ring the same tone as normal SMS messages, as it gets annoying somethimes... Is there any way to change that, without completely disabling delivery notification?

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?

[Q] Notification Vibration While On Call

Guys,
I keep the vibrate notification on for my text/mms messages 'cuz i like to know when I get them if I have music on in the car or something, etc. Today I was on the phone with a friend and got a text -she likened the noise that the vibration made to a "truck horn." Is there a way to get the vibration to only vibrate when not on a call? I've so far only found a way to turn it either full-on or full-off.

This is one of the reasons I prefer handcent over the default SMS app. It has all sorts of notifications options including the ability to selectively enable/disable sound and/or vibration for notifications when on a call. I have both off so incoming text messages never interrupt my calls.

Delivery Report in SMS only shows in notification bar, if you don’t want delivery report then why enabled it? Just disabled it from SMS settings, it will not appear anymore. If Delivery report disabled no issues with sms delivery. It reaches to user instantly.

Not an issue, I do need this too and I also don’t like vibration notification except calls. You cant turn off the sound particularly for Delivery notification unless you root it and customize it to remove this feature.
Only if your phone is in silent mode the ring will not appear for delivery report. You can easily turn off the vibration from SMS settings.
I wont advice you to root and customize the phone. What you can do is, set a low sound tone for sms only, this will be applicable for delivery tone too. Or you can turn off the SMS ring if sms notification isn’t important for you. Try this if this help.
Blocking mode also could turn off this sound, but it will turn off every notification sounds.
