How can I get my xda to make a sound when a sms message arrives ?
Have ticked the box in sounds and notifications for new sms message but still it remains quiet when a message arrives.
When you select the soundfile for a SMS-message and press the "play-button" to preview it, does it sound then?
If not, the file could be in a format that your PDA can't play.
It sounds absolutely fine using the test button, just doesn't work for an incoming message.

Problem solved, the previous page also reqires a box to be checked !

put your sms tone in the \windows directory. not in the \windows\rings directory.

Hi,
When sms is sent, there's a notification of it. Is there any way to turn off the sound notification, while still leaving the popup one? The 'trrring' sound on every sms sent notification is very irritating.
Thanks in advance..

i read sumwhere 2day dat mring has the ability to "silence" the incoming ringing sms tone, if sum1 choses 2 do so, however, its a paid app w/ trial.....
I've unfortuanatly never seen a fix to this, happened to me when I set a full MP3 as a message tone on my Diamond, I just use th default alerts or MP3 Trimmer.

its the way windows mobile operate, its not device specific, a workable solution is to make a ringtone 5-10sec something short just go give you an idea of the song..thats what i use to do but im tired of the whole music for sms(on any phone), plus it annoys everyone around me so i just stick to the generic alerts
I'm not an HD2 user, but this caught my interest, the HD2 has the ability to set a call ringtone and a sms ringtone seperate for a contact? Would anyone know if this is an HTC setting or a something? I'd love to be able to do this with my TP2 without using a 3rd party app if at all possible.
are there any tweaks to this problem?
angeldeath, i am sorry i cannot help u on your question. maybe u can ask in other threads.
I will check this out on my phone right now..
My brother just called me and said that he added a whole song as his sms ringer and now his HD2 TMOUS freezes half way thru the song.. He has to soft reset after that..
My GF says that if she gets one sms song starts playing, then gets another sms 4 secs later, same song starts playing but initial sms song doesnt stop so they overlap.. Once she actually open the sms is when they stop..
There should be an option where u can just hit any button to stop the sms ringer as you can silence an incoming call.
Ok so here is what happened.. I added a super long mp3 song as my sms ringer.. send me a txt.. phone started ringing sound doesnt go off unless i actually open up the message. i left it ringing.. phone went to sleep more and ringer still ringing, then once ringer was over, phone didnt wake up anymore..
had to soft reset..
Another observation was that if you fo to Setting> All Setting> Sound & Notifications.. Notifications tab, Select Incoming Message, and select Display Message on Screen.. Then the ringtone will only sound for 3-5 secons...

My problem is that SMS does not ring. I have set a tone and it will never give me the alert.
Any help on this?

Come on guys!!
Take a break!!
If u really need this particular song for a sms, just trim the hell out of it making it less than 10 secs max!! U could do that by any prog on the PC (i use acoustica mp3 audio mixer) or simply by using mp3 trimmer on the phone directly which i also use!!!
For ppl who will be asking about where to place the ringtone for sms to work, just place it in the root directory of "my documents"!!
I've trimmed my mp3 to a few seconds.
Sometimes it works and sometimes it does'nt.
Most of the time it hangs on sms.
My supplier changed my ROM to Energy ROM. The ring tone will stop when I access to my sms but still it's not functioning properly. It still hang now and then.
I then us the standard avaliable ring tone. I found out that if the ring tone (even with the standard avaliable) is too long, the sms will still hang.
I now use a short standard ring tone, with vibrating on and it looks like it's working, but I'm not 100% sure if the sms will hang again!
But I still have a problem with charging. I hangs sometimes.
Pls help.

photo contacts pro can awake your device if there an notification. can manage any ringtone and sms tone too. i use on my x2, and useful for the notify.
Try to change the message tone...
i tried already..ya, it awake my phone when sms come in..but the problem is the sound is still to small although im using the loudest ringtone in my phone(the annoying high frequency sound)..how to make it sounds louder???
Use this free service: grab-tube.co m/mp3-volume
If still not loud enough, resend the file.
Hey guys,
Anyone know how to fix/address or is having troubles with muting incoming sms/text messages?
Eg. when i receive the text and i open the message and the ringtone still plays until it finishes. i can't mute/stop it and it get's annoying as i want to quickly silence it at times!
Any info/advice would be great!
Thanks.
Press the volume key when the tone is playing
