I have a problem with the sound for when I get a new message. It just won't play. I go into Start>>Settings>>Sounds & Notifications on the Notification tab I scroll down to "Messaging: New text message" and choose some sound... When I press play nothing happens, and neither when I get a message.
Has anyone had this problem or has anyone got any ideas of how to fix it?
Best regards - Oskar
I suggest you do a hard-rest after a fully backup...
It's ok now, I found what was wrong...
I had unchecked the box that says: "Enable sounds for Programs -> Notifications"
My bad, thanks for the tip though.
Is there any program that makes a new sms pop up in standby screen, like a preview? Like Handcent sms for android?

I found this in another post, but it seems to be buggy... I get alot of squares in the popup and the name of the sender only.
Have you ever tried changing the options in Settings->Sound and notification->Notification tab and checking the box "Show message on the screen" ?

Exactly what I wrote above... and it's not working properly!
So I did the "upgrade" that TMO put out on their website for the HD2 and now I do not get the popup message window when a new text comes in. Before the upgrade it my phone was dormant and I had a new text message the display would come to life and a box would display at the bottom of the screen with a preview of the message (in addition to the normal audible notification). Now the display comes on and the audible notification occurs but there is not popup box anymore. Any thoughts?

Go to settings...sounds and notifications....notifications..go to text message and put a check in display message on screen
Thank you for the reply zelendel. My menus do not have that exact string. If I go to Settings I have a Sounds & Display option, which has the following options - Profiles, Volume, Ring and Notifications, Display and G-Sensor. The only place in these menus that I can alter the text message is teh sound that plays. I do not see a checkbox.

Ok sounds like those are the manila style settings. In the settings there may be a softkey marked all settings and that should take you to the WM settings. if not then disable sense and then goint settings and that should give you the WM settings as well.

Wrong "settings" area. When you're on the settings tab there, click "menu" in the bottom right, then "all settings", then "sounds and notifications" On the 2nd tab ("notifications"), pick "Message: New message" from the first drop-down, then you'll see the check box you need.
Thank you Phunk! That was what I was missing!!!

No prob...it was the same place zelendel was referring to, but HTC did nobody a favor when they created a 2nd distinct set of "settings" and kept the name the same
Yeah sorry I disabled the manila settings thing long ago and forgot about it.
Issue resolved.

I have noticed that the call log shows text message history along with the calls. I remember on my Nexus One I had an option in setings to filter out the messages. I don't see that option anymore. Any help would be much appreciated. I have looked through the forum and all over the net trying to find an answer. I'm currently running Quantom Rom 2.0. I've tried numerous roms and had the same issue.
Tapping menu will reveal options for filtering.
