Ok here is the problem, I hope someone can help me this problem is frustrating.
I was looking for a program that could help me manage ringtones for contacts / SMS. I started with PhoneAlarm and it worked good. Then I saw MortRing and I thought I would give it a try. I uninstalled Phone Alarm and then installed MortRing version 0.993. I played around with it and didnt like it over PhoneAlarm so I wanted to go back. I uninstalled MortRing and then installed Phone Alarm. I setup my settings again how they were but now SMS ringtone is not working . I have the right town assigned to SMS under each profile however whenever I get an SMS I get the old MortRing notification. I also set the SMS under the Settings->Notifications to the one I want and that doesnt work. I have done a soft reset several times but no luck. Any idea? I dont want to do a full reset as my backup is out of date
Thanks for the help!

Hi all,
I've got a problem with Messaging. I can receive text messages (SMS), but when I click on NEW or REPLY buttons in Messaging, nothing happens. No error messages, no crashes, no windows appearing and disappearing, nothing!
It used to work perfectly, so I seem to have done something wrong, but I don't know what.
I have a Himalaya with WM5. It happened to one of my friends with a Magician with WM2003 so it's not machine or ROM dependent. Hard reset works but I want to solve it without having to resort to that. Any ideas please?
At some point recently, my WM6 phone stopped playing its ringtone (normal WM6 ringtone sound, haven't changed it). If I go into Settings->Sounds & Notifications and check the Phone: Incoming Call sound, it is correct and plays. If I check in Settings->Phone and check the sound, it is correct and plays. But it doesn't play when I actually get a call. Changing the ring tone to something else doesn't help either. Anyone have any idea how this can be fixed, other than a hard reset (soft reset doesn't work)?
hi
this happened to me wayyyy back when i still had my xda2. although i'm pretty sure wm se2003 and wm2006 are completely different =)...what happened was i installed an app that's causing the conflict. i forgot which app was causing this problem but after i uninstalled it, did a soft reset and the ringtones came back. for your case, you might want to check if you installed recent apps. if yes, perhaps one of them is causing this. i think it's mostly the old applications that affect the system. example, installing an app made for se2003 devices.
or, is your bluetooth on? it's possible that all sound is being rerouted to the headset. i think it's a bug for a lot of devices.
hope that helps.
cheers

Thanks for the reply.
Fring is the application in this instance (I wanted to use Skype over my 3G connection, but the Skype client itself is a no-go, unless you go back to an old version that only outputs via the speakerphone). As far as I can tell this happened after installing it.
Problem is, after uninstalling Fring and doing a soft reset, the problem remains. I figured maybe the issue is a registry setting or the like, but have no idea where. So I turn to all you knowledgeable people in the hope that the answer isn't "do a hard reset." :-|
Hi guys,
I have a problem, that from time to time my WM phone (Hermes) freezes and then I have to do a reset with the stylus and all the unread SMS that I´ve received in the meantime are gone..
Is there a way to prevent this, please? (e.g. a program that would automatically mark all incoming SMS as read so that the WindowsMobile system will actually store them even in case of a reset?)
Thanks for any help!
Pteropus.
nobody knows a solution..?
please..
please, help meee.. isn´t there a way to stop the unread sms-s from getting lost after restart..??
No idea.
I tried and mine works normally. I sent myself an SMS. I didn't open or read it when it arrived. I just left it unread in the inbox. I performed a soft reset using the stylus. When the device rebooted the SMS was still in the inbox showing as unread.
yeah but when the phone freezes it will delete.
it happens on my wing and on my old excalibur.
exactly
thanks for your replies..
so what can be done? i am thinking of a soft that would either keep the unread sms in its own memory on the memory card or a soft that would save it right away as read.. it is such a bummer, it´s a feature of Windows Mobile but I am wondering why this doesn´t bother anyone else...
Yes believe me this is a major pain in the a#@*! Has happened to me quite a few times and even made me miss an important appointment once...
I take it that this is simply a "feature" of the system but it could be down to a rogue program somewhere. Not for me to say anything of course but some of the third party programs available do seem to make my machine freeze more than most. Remove them and it works ok for long periods.
Funny that...
same here
that is the same source of madness for me.. last week I got an SMS from a horny girlfriend but the phone froze, sms is gone and she says that she will not say what was in it, beacuse she is ashamed how open it was and wants to play a dame now.. aaaargh....
Hello,
I'm quite new to the windows mobile phones, got an LG KS20 some days ago, and I'm liking it a lot. There's just that sms program that I really dislike.. So I googled a bit and found SMS-chat, so I downloaded the trial and installed it coorectly on my device,
Receiving Sms's works perfectly , and it synchronized my old ones immediatly, and I liked it right from the start, but when I tried to send an sms, the message simply stayed in my 'outbox' and it wouldn't send.. Even when I tried to send an sms with the normal sms-app, it didn't work anymore, and when I de-installed the program , it wouldn't even work before I rebooted my phone..
Anyone an idea? Couldn't find anyone with the same problem on google, but maybe those are my poor google-skills.. anyway I hope someone can help..
just throwing it in the air.... try smileysms instead of vitosms... which is ... much better (at least in my eyes)... try uninstalling Vito-SMS and install it again to your storage card. heard it helped someone once.
Hi all,
Whenever i get a new text message, the phone does not notify me by ringing ringtone or SMS tone sound or audio alert, nor vibrating the device when there is any incoming text message or SMS message.. This is happening with new ext message or SMS only..
I have checked settings-->Sounds¬ifications. I have checked the play sound option.. Still its not workin..
Please help..
Thanks in advance

I have a HTC Touch Diamnd P3490
ROM Version : 1.93.720.4 WWE
ROM Date : 03/16/2009
Radio version: 1.13.25.24
protocol version : 52.62.25.34G
Have also had this problem, everything was working fine for about a year, then the sms notifications stopped. I tried all the settings to no avail.
I reflashed the ROM and all was fine again.
try with:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <-- set to "1" by default. Change value to "0"
SMS notification not working
I have the same phone and the same problem. It was working but I have made loads of mods and updates and now it is not working. Cannot find out why.
Tried the reg tweak above but that has not worked. Will try the ROM reflash later and see if that does the trick.
Any further help greatly appreciated as I have not been able to find a definitive answer to this one.
TIA to one and all.
Well I've been through everything I can.
One person suggested installing SPB Phone Suite, restarting when asked, then deleting it and that apparently worked for him - but not for me.
Someone else suggested to change the reg key to disable wakeup on new message. Again that apparently worked for him - but not for me.
So after a couple of hours of research and trying all sorts, I did a full backup with Sprite BackUp then reflashed the same ROM. Reinstalled the backup and Hey Presto! It now works just as it should.
I can only assume in all my playing with new programs and unstalling them, something has screwed up this feature. The clean ROM install has finally done the trick. Hopefully I will not get in trouble any more for "missed texts" which I never heard or noticed.
SOUND AND VIBRATE ON SMS NOW WORKING! PROBLEM SOLVED!
Good luck to anyone else who has this annoying problem.
here are the full reg settings for this sound notification taken from my device
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65B-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}]
"Wave"="\\Windows\\Your Sound.wma"
"AvailableOptions"=dword:0000001f
"Options"=dword:0000000f
"Duration"=dword:00000005

I think the sound must be .wma
