SMS slide to unlock inconsistent behaviour on lockscreen - HD2 General

If I receive an SMS while my HD2 is locked, occasionally I have seen an additional slide to unlock button for the SMS. However, it is very rare that I see this additional button when I receive an SMS. Why is this function so inconsistent? Shouldn't this button appear on the lock screen every time there is a new SMS notification? Does anyone else see this inconsistent behavior too or is it just me?
Cheers,
Richard.

It appears when you tap the unlock button - it never just appears of it's own accord.
Hope this helps

Thanks, I'll give that a try. It does seem a bit silly why it doesn't appear without interaction though!

I quite like it not showing, to be honest. It would clutter the screen if you had a few different locks there by default when you had some unread texts and emails.
Each to their own eh?

Voicemail - popup nofitication dismiss does not dismiss

I know there is a standard feature in the wizard where when a new voicemail comes in, it does a popup notification saying you have 1 new voicemails, etc.
I also know that when you click "dismiss" the popup notification is hidden, but no new popup notifications can come in until you actually listen to the voicemail.
Since I don't like to listen to my voicemail, is there a way to change the behavior so that it "clears" the popup notification and I can get to my other popup notifications?
I too HATE this problem. I have not yet searched the forums for a resolution, but I will see what I can find.
BTW: I had forgot about that problem (must have just been ignoring it) until you brought it up again! :x
Later; Lew
As far as I have been able to determine, there is no way to make it go away. However, new notifications do come in (but do not pop-up automatically). You can access the new notifications by clicking the notification balloon on the top of the screen. I use this quite often to get to the missed call notification without checking my voicemail first.
i too am having this problem and was wondering if there was a fix for it, it is quite disturbingly annoying.
Sometimes i get a slew of notifications and since i cant see them all since i am at wrk and i get time to see them usually voice mail is the "TOP" one and will not dissapear until i LISTEN to it, EXTREMLY annoying.
Does anyone have any fix/work around?
It's because of WM5

I just posted an ongoing email thread with Cingular/HTC support for the Cingular 8525 (Hermes) about the exact same issue. Included in the emails is a verification that this is also a confirmed bug on the Cingular 8125 (Wizard). I am going to stay on their asses about the 8525, and post any replies I get. Here is the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299865

I have this happen but not with text messages but rather with new email messages. The exact same thing happens as you say. I will open the email and it will go back to the today screen but once I press the email messaging button it will open up to that email.
If you say your getting this problem with text messages and you press the messaging button I'm assuming your not using the threaded sms hack. I'm using the threaded hack so thats why I don't need to press the messaging button to open new text but I do need to press that button to open emails.
I've never tried a threaded sms before, how is it, and can you post a cab or a link to it for me? thanks man.

i'm having that issue as well, assumed it was the threaded sms for wm6 that i just installed. could be related to something else though as it sounds like you're not using the threaded app...
yep, count me in as well, that happens in both SMS and Emails
so did anyone find a fix, or solution to this? kind of aggravating at times. tia.
oh and medic or anyone else using the threaded sms, is it worth it to you all? can I remove it if I dont like it? tia again guys.
I have ContactCM installed and hav e the same problem. All in all it sounds like a bug in Windows Mobile 6 because I haven't heard of anyone on 5 having this problem.

Rogers Touch not notifying my of SMS messages

Hello All,
I have a Rogers HTC Touch running WM6.0 (the default software). Text messaging typically works but on occasion when i receive a text message my phone screen will light up, but no sound and no vibration will be produced. And the icon on my Home screen that indicates text messages will still say "0". But when i press the icon and the messaging tab loads up i see that i have a text message.
This is really annoying since I constantly miss text msgs. When the phone is in my pocket I have no way of knowing i have been texted. To make matters worse when i pull the phone out of my pocket the icon on the home screen telling me how many text messages i have will still display "0" until i press on it.
Again this only happens sometimes.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Just an update?
Any thoughts? It's a really weird bug. This is my second Touch from Rogers and it suffers from the same issue as before.
Anything in the registry than can be changed?
Thanks.
I had the same problem.... i hard reset, it was the only way.
Rogers as well...
Check this Thread.
Check your sms reminder settings.....this could be of help to you.
Are you using Opera? Their older builds seem to cause this issue.
Regadrs,

How to disable autodial when previewing e-mail/SMS ?

One of the most annoying "features" in almost every ROM I tried (and I tried a lot!) is that if you are in Manila's SMS or e-mail tab and press the call button (in order to open the dialer).. then the dialer will automatically dial the displayed e-mail or SMS sender's number.
Does anybody know how can this be disabled ?
Bump!
I start feeling that I'm really special - am I the only one having a problem with this ?
I have the same problem. And it is soo frustrating, i press the phone button and immediately have to press the end call button. Then type in the number i want to ring.
Someone notice this thread! It is probably an easy problem to fix for you experts...please help:d
Bump!
I would appreciate the solution as well.
Bump!
This problem is driving me nuts....I keep ringing the wrong people by mistake

**NEW** SMS Problem

I recently bought a HTC HD2 and like the phone a lot. I have a problem with SMS and whenever I search for the problems with SMS they are all old and about lag which obviously was a big problem. Mine isn't as big of problem but is extremely annoying.
When I get a new message, whether on the lockscreen or not. If I use the navigation tabs to view the SMS (which you have to do from the lockscreen), I am 90% of the time directed to an older message in the conversation and not the NEW message. So then I have to scroll up to view the new message.
This is extremely annoying and I know I cant be the only one to have this problem, but it is definitely hard to search for this because it is hard to describe. Please someone help.
Also, would there be a way to go from the new SMS slider on the lockscreen directly to "All Messages" so you can bypass seeing the sms on the white sheet of paper and then having to click that to answer. Its a lot of steps for nothing.
same problem here, on Miri's ROM. it is annoying (as is the fact that when i start writing a text, after a couple of seconds the focus moves out of the text entry field, and hence i can't type any more without clicking in the field again.
not found a solution to either of these.
I've seen a thread about this yesterday I think
Anyway, just disable the SMS tab... If you do that, tapping the notification will open the Messaging application.
i suspect going to an old message from lockscreen is caused by the same thing that makes appointments stay on the lockscreen for a while after they have ended. basically the lockscreen controls poll the registry for the info that is displayed, but it doesn't update itcontinually.just now and then
I disabled the sms navigation tab and that seems to work better. The SMS app is still not as smooth as i would like it to be but what can you do...
Dear, This thread already posted. search for smstimestampfixer 1.3.cab. gud luck
