I posted this in the other sub thread but got no response so I thought I'd try here. I recently installed the palm threaded sms app. I love using this for text msging except for the fact that I get no sound or vibration when I recieve a new txt. I have checked the settings in the sound notifications and everything there has sound applied to it. Any help would be great. I want to continue using this program but won't be able to if I can't tell when I get a sms msg.
you should have a separate entry in the notifications list showing Text Message (Palm) or similar. You need to set this to the sound/vibrate you want. The only problem I've found is that none of the usual profile managers that allow you to switch between quiet/loud/normal/vibrate and such will change this notification as they are all hard-wired for the standard notification name only.
There is one for text msgs but no matter what I put there it doesn't give any kind of notification.
Edit: Found the one you were talking about I guess I just overlooked it testing it out now.
Hi Guys,
for some reason when i receive email to my phone it doesnt seem to vibrate or ring. It pops up on the email tab to say its been received but theres no kind of indication. Its sort of like its on silent. Ive checked all my sound settings and notifications, events e.t.c are on but still no joy.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Have you change manila language ?
Right,
It seems that sometimes I am getting problems with my sound notifications. Basically the SMS or Email notification sometimes works fine, like normal. Then other times, I get a SMS or Email come through on my HD2, but the sound notification doesn't go off? I don't have the phone on silent, nor vibrate. So I Have to reset the HD2 in order for the notifications to work again.
Anyone else coming across this problem? If so, how did you get "around" it?
Cheers.
Bump.......

No, I can only understand English, so wouldn't have changed the language settings in Manila.
Go to:
Settings>All settings>Sounds & Notifications>Notification Tab.
And see what you can do with all those settings there,it took me some time to customize them all to my liking,it is working very well now.

All the same settings since I set the phone up from new (about 2 weeks ago).
Dunno what it is, but I can remember I used to have the same problem on my HTC Kaiser (aka : MDA Vario III)
Grr..
Do you use the 3.5mm jack often? (ie. headphones, speakers, etc. for listening to music/movies) If so, when you unplug them from your phone, your sound settings will automatically turn off/slient. Not necessarily silent or vibrate mode, just off/lowest volume setting. This has been happening to me since day one even with custom ROM. Don't know how else to fix it. I just always change the volume settings right after I unplug.

I've found that since upgrading to the most recent T-Mobile ROM on the website, when I get a text or email the phone will play all of the message or email alert, even if I open the text or email, it continues! Very annoying.
My legend is running froyo and I have an issue with the sound notifications when I receive texts.
I do not want sounds when I receive a text. So I went to settings in the messaging app and disabled sounds. But I still continue to get sounds. I've had to mute notifications for now. I am not able to turn off vibration either.
It's like its linked to the main notification settings.
Help please ?
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Okay i managed to fix that issue.
notifications working as i choose them to now.
But one thing still bothers.
i have a prepaid connection. my service provider sends me my remaining credit notifications after every text i send.
and i receive those messages with a sound, which is dependant upon the ringtone volume i think.
any way to turn THAT sound off?
Hi. My MT4G is rooted and unlocked, running gingerbread 2.3.3. My problem is that I have no email notification sound, although it is set to alert me. I am using the stock email client, and would really like to stick with that due to the integration with contacts and faves. I have tried every angle I could think of: global settings, email settings, my modes, etc. Has anyone found a solution to this problem?
Many thanks.
Same issue
What happened to the option to set the email notification sound? Right now it defaults to using 'Alpha' as the alert. However, I didn't even set 'Alpha' as the system notification sound either.
