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 Audio Notifications

Does anybody know how to turn off the annoying SMS sent audio notification?. Even with the phone set to silent or sound off setting it still generates a jingle when sending SMS messages.
Have trawled the web for a solutin to this problem and had a look through the registry but to no avail.
Kinda makes it impossible to answer text messages when in meetings or when trying to be discrete.
Well, there is a registry tweak to turn off notifications altogether. If you want the visual notification alone, this would not help.
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Inbox/Settings/SMSNoSentMsg to 1

Missing Text Message Sound Notification

I have lost the sound notification for incoming text messages. All the boxes are ticked in the settings - sound and notifications - notification window but nothing happens, it doesn't even vibrate.
Works OK for incoming voice calls, Anybody got any ideas please?

[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.

Serious problems with incoming text notifications

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?
