Hi all,
i have an htc hd2 with the original windows mobile 6.5 rom (italian).
As I have written in the subject, is there the possibility to activate the led notification when a new email arrives?
With an "app"/mod or simply editing some keyword into the windows registry?
Many thanks
no help?
:/
i am writing this from my memory, so i'm sorry i can't be very clear about the exact steps.
press the Start button, look for "Settings". you might have to find "All Settings". once there, look for something like "Sounds & Notifications".
in the sounds and notifications settings, there will be a combo box where you can choose the event you want to configure. in your case, you want to configure the "new email" event. so choose it from the combo box.
once you've chosen the event, its current configuration will be populated in the bottom half of the screen. one of those settings will be something like "Flash light for" against which you can give a value like "disabled", "1 minute", "2 minutes", so on.
the above instructions might be a bit ambiguous but i KNOW for a fact that WM6.5 can do exactly what you desire in this thread.
Hi and thanks for your answer.
I watched this setting before writing this post and unfortunately in that tab there isn't any check relating "Flash light" or something similar.
...and it's strange 'cause for example when a new sms arrives, the led blinks. And selecting in the combo the voice "New text message" the voice "Flash light" still doesn't appear...
I'm confused
Incredible...
I have watched on my "old" tytn with wm6.0 and this setting is present.
No one knows if there is some key into the wm registry?
Maaany thanks
Have it on my NRG ROM.
Have a look into BSB Tweaks app as this has some LED Notification adding options.
Will look into my registry & see what I can find.
It is indead as easy as adding reg keys ...
do a search as got to be a few threads on this but as always XDA search is ****e, best doing direct in Google.

Adding registry or adjusting current "AvailableOptions" Dword value should do the trick .
As an example: my New MMS alert had LED option greyed out but by setting the AvailableOptions dword to 0 eneable the drop down menu of time selection & the check boxes to be ticked/unlicked as required ....

Copy your complete registry (CEReg Editor) for Notifications & post it so we can take a look.
All works on mine & as registry based should on yours if done right ...

no solutions?
Try manually changing dword values as shown below.
Example is based on new email key;
Your current values are:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65A-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:0000000d
"Duration"=dword:00000005
"AvailableOptions"=dword:0000000f
"Wave"="\\Windows\\Alert-Twitter.wav"
@="Messaggi: Nuovo messaggio e-mail"
My working values are:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65A-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Options"=dword:00000005
"AvailableOptions"=dword:00000000
"Wave"="\\Windows\\Alert-Notify.wav"
@="Messaging: New e-mail message"
"Duration"=dword:00000000
change the "Options" value= 5 "AvailableOptions" value= 0 & "Duration" value= 0 and see if you can get it working.
You could also try copying your values from a notification that has correct LED function if above values do not work.
Also compare check box status box availability (greyed out) in sound settings for the key you adjust before & after adjustment to see if changes are showing.
Could always be a bug with something else on your ROM causing issue even when registry is correct ! perhaps !!

if you feel a bit adventurous, there are many guides here on how to change your rom.
you can choose to stay with WM6.5 if you want, in which case i would suggest looking in the HD2 WM6.5 development forum and try out NRGZ's "energy" rom.
and you have a whole lot of other more "modern" options like android and WP7, etc.
i know for a fact that all of the above options will give you the kind of notification options you desire! i used the stock WM6.5 only for the first 2-3 months after buying an HD2. then i switched to NRGZ's WM6.5 roms, and then i switched to SD android (the only kind of android available for HD2 at that time) and then finally to NAND android when magldr was launched in Dec 2010. when i used WM6.5, i used NRGZ's rom longer and later than the stock rom, so thats where i remember seeing the option for new email notification with led flash.
I too can recommend NRG 6.5.x ROMs, huge improvement from standard factory ROMs & for me so good I have not bothered with Android.
Thanks to everybody for the support!
Does the NRG 6.5.x ROM have italian language?

Yes. 29022 is latest 6.5.x build available in Italian & several choices such as close to stock or themed & with or without sense & CHT mod ...
Make sure you read up on requirements prior to flashing & follow tips such as hard reset after initial flash & first boot, small points but make big difference to bug free running ...
Good!
Now i have only to find "a little" of free time to read, flash and... reinstall again all my applications...

Hi all,
Sometimes my Touch Dual when gets a new SMS doesn't sound and/or vibrate. Even if I change the profile or do whatever it still keeps the same. If I reboot or just after a time it starts with sound again.... it just happens with SMS received, if I got a phone call it still vibrates and sounds. Any ideas? Thanks a lot!
No ideas? Can anyone please help?
Same problem here... can anyone please help?
Most of the time the light goes on and no sound or vibrating... other times it plays a standard sound and not my selected one for SMS receiving...
ya. same to me.. after I upgrade my htc touch dual to WM6.1 and change back to "old sms look" from the regisry.. it cant get any sound at all...
and I was try to go setting-> sound & Notifications - >under Notifications page, the Event part [Messaging:New text message] I was set the wav sound, same to all the MMS setting.. I try to set all the msg to alarm3, but also no sound at all
I've solved my problem by changing the register:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings
In this folder the value for SMSAvailable is 0. Change it back to 1!
In a thread I was told to change it to 1 to get conservation style sms, I believe.. never worked

What do you mean with "the new style"? After 5 o 6 SMS sound & vibration vanishes
I've got a such problem on my HTC Diamond

Hi,
when i receive a new message a very little windows appears on lower left side of the home windows. This new stupid one probably replaces the extended normal one which appears when a new sms arrives and the text inside quotes the sms text.
Simultaneously when i set the ring off or vibration mode however the diamond ring with a new sms but at the max volume. It's crazy !!!
I tried to remove the last apps installed but the problem persists.
What can i do?
Thanx

Thanks. This worked for me. I've outline my steps on my Sprint Htc Touch (htc 6.1 rom):
1. in regedit path KEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSNoSentMsg, change DWORD data existing Decimal value=1 to 0. Perhaps for some people, if existing value=0, then change to
1. Some forums indicated value from SMSAvailable. But I didn't see that entry in my registry. I saw only SMSNoSentMsg under the above path.
2. On tab Settings: Sounds & Notifications\Sounds, check both on Programs and Notifications
3. On tab Notifications: Event\Messaging\New text message, choose an event(s)
After all 3 steps, text message inbound should work. I changed the value in step 1 back to original value of 1. Sound still works. I think step 1 somehow "wakes up" the notification sound config
Hey peeps
I've found this registry tweak in the Kaiser forums, but worked like a charm on my original Iolite too:

You have to create the OEM folder yourself but apart from that it seems to work okay.

I didn't even had to reset or delete my device to see the changes. Just close all programs and I made the tweak with Total Commander (from Ghisler).

U can dissolve this with advancedconfig 3.3
.NET 3.5 must be installed.
Greetings Mirko
one step ahead
Thx for the information.
After adding the reg key, my device playes the "new sms arrived" sound. Great.
But if I miss the sound, or the ringer is turned completely off, I do not see an indication for the new message unless I manually activate the screen.
I would also like to have the LED (on the top of the device) indicating that there is a new unread message.
Any idea?
Greetings!

The iolite have only one LED, the other is a light-sensor to correct the brightness automatically.
Try this: Start - Settings - Sounds & Notifications.

Thanks a lot for this nice hint!
I really started to dislike the threaded way already.
But I had to reset my Iolite to swap to unthreaded sms.
On friday my trusty MPV M3100 decided to give up the ghost, so as I was in London I decided to look for a new phone and picked up an Touch Diamond 2.
And I have to say; I love it.
Best phone I've had and even the lack of a hardware keyboard hasn't bothered me.
There is only one thing which has caused me some bother; on all my previous phones when an sms/mms has been recieved the screen will turn on for a while to alert me of this, however I can't find a way to do the same thing with the TD2.
The reason I would like this is down to me mostly leaving my phone on silent but in line of sight. The silent factor is because I'm often doing things with headphones on (such as at work) and I'm not going to hear the tone anyways.
So, while the green light is nice and all being able to have the screen turn on as an option would be nice..
As a coder by trade I've been poking around to see what I could do to let me do this myself, however if someone has a better solution or knows of an app which can already do it then I'd appricate it if they could tell me
There is a setting in:
All Settings->Personal->Sounds & Notifications->Notifications
Then select Messaging: New Text Message from the drop down list, and there is an option there "Flash Light For: x Minutes"
This might be what you're looking for?
thanks for the reply, however I'd already found that option and it only effects the green light which flashes when you get a messag; nice and stuble in keeping with the device but not what I'm after
Look for this registry value
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\DisableSMSWakeUpEvent
It should be 1, set it to 0
ah, excellent, thanks
just curious what program you guys are using to edit registry values...
sorry if this is a stupid question, but i'm new to Windows Mobile.. up until the D2 i've always have symbian phones.
I just did a google for "win mobile reg editor" and installed PHM Regedit to do the job.
Although I'm going to write a quick app to let me toggle this particular setting I think (i'll probably post the resulting cab/exe here encased others want it)
I'm using Total Commander (I just started editing the registry). What do you guys use for making a CAB file?

Thank Oruam, great tweak.
I currently have the option selected to display a new sms message on screen as soon as it arrives, is it possible when i hit reply to get the device to go to the touch flow threaded messaging system rather than the WM6.1 default?
Thanks guys!
Is there any way to have it vibrate & play a sound, but not enable the touch screen? The reason I ask is that I dont want the screen to come on while it's in my pocket etc, and things start to get accidentally pressed!
Awesome! Thanks!

I'm sorry ormz.
I'm interesting for that option to have flash light blinking when sms/mail arrives, unfortunately I haven't got the option you mentioned into my settings referred to "new SMS".
I've got the original rom installed (italian version).
May I arrange same setting/option into register also if I haven't it on display?
Could someone help me?
lock the device:
"real lock" - press the hang button (the one on the right) until it shows unlock at the bottom left side
stand-by - press the power button only for 1 second and the screen will go off. When receiving a message, the screen stays black. To see menu-s again, press again power button for 1 second
someone could tell me how to make it works with email event?

What are you looking for? Are you tryting to navigate to the registry through file explorer? If so, you need a reg editor to do that...
You know this is an old thread, right?
yeah i know its a old thread... i had a registor editor.. actually acouple. i found what i was looking for.. just didnt start with hkml.. thanks though for replying..
does anyone know how to make the notification led stay on for more than 5 mins for example when receiving an sms? I've looked in settings but the option is grayed out.
Yes go to your settings icon, then go down to the right and press and hold the quickmenu at the bottom right, it's called ""menu" all settings" , there's a bunch of legacy settings to be found there including all the notification settings you and I were used too.
Reply greatly appreciated
You need to edit the registry in order to get access to the settings for LED notification. Look in the thread "hints and tips" for the reg settings. Once applied, you can then change the LED notification time under windows settings.
Is there also a way to make the LED flash when you receive emails?
Did you guys read my post at all, there is no need for registry hacks, the menus are already there. You can do everything you used to do in 6.1 or 6.5
lucid yes we read it but the option for how long the led runs for is grayed out so you can't change it in the legacy settings.
anyone know the registry hack needed?
post by mistake
My sincerest excuses. I went to that screen to verify it existed, not to verify it
was customizable.. my bad..
So... where is that registry hack ?

On my old Nokia 5800 when i typed any kind of text (especially SMS) the cellphone vibrated. In HTC HD2 i'm not able to find any option that enables this kind of functionality.
Is there something similar to this functionality in the HD2?
Thanks in advance from Argentina,

If you have sense turned on scroll all the way to the end (settings) then hit personalise, then vibration and turn it on
you can, because mine does it..but i cant find for the life of me where the option is. sorry. ill keep looking.

Get a Registry editor

add a DWORD key names "VibrationEnabled" without the speech marks. and set it to 1 for vibration or 0 for without.
I hope this is helpful cos i accidently renamed the Software folder to "d" and it wont change back! o well, excuse to flash
And... is it possible to create a folder to save sent sms?
Best regards!
