setting for sms sound notification

So here's the thing, on any cellphone, whenever an SMS comes in, a sound or tone can be set for it, and when you open the message, the sound stops. On an xda2, the sound just continues even though you already opened and read the SMS.
Can this be altered in the registry?
I cant use long SMS sound notifiers because, every time an incoming SMS is received, the whole sound clips plays and its annoying.

mate, you saying that the sound played for your sms is continuous but not repeating? that's what happens when the sound/wav file used for the notification is too long; i think the unit will keep on playing it until the whole file is finished. similar to your alarms; unless you click it off the unit will finish the sound or loop it (if you want it too). if this is the case you can just change the wav file assigned to the sms notification...a shorter one would help..
cheers

yup, its continuous, even after opening the SMS. A long SMS notifier would be okay, but as ive said, its annoying if while im reading the SMS, the sound still plays. Hope theres a workaround for this.

Yeah its really annoying when you can't stop the sound while reading the message! :?
I was forced to assign a 1 sec length wav file instead of my favourite sound
I wonder why they didn't solve this issue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Turning the sound off when you go to look at the message usually works for me

well, its not that practical way to do so....!! :!:

It could work, but its still a 2 step process. DCS? Waxx? ZeroExtreme? Any answers to this?

[REQ] End SMS notification after read

i have had this problem since i got my touch pro....i have a .mp3 as my notification for SMS and its about a min long. after i read a message, respond, and close it the .mp3 keeps playing..i would prefer the sound to stop after i open the message.....is there some tweak or perhaps program that can resolve this?? Any responses are welcome and thanks in advance

im guessing no one else is having this same problem....come on devs im sure there is some way to resolve this...im sure there are a few people with SMS notifications that are longer than a min....on my old MOTO a1200 i culd simply push the volume togggler either up or down and be able to silence the ringer immediately..and this phone is far more advanced

I am guessing most people just have shorter notification sounds. I never made mine longer because i never thought there was a way for any device to cut off the sound.

No sms notifications!

Hey Peeps,
My windows mobile has a little bug. I don't get any notification anymore for receiving a sms. Only the count works and gives me the icon that 1 sms is received. My phone doesn't vibrate or make any sound when receiving a sms.
Can someone please help me.
I searched for it in HKEY_CURRENT_USER . didn't find anything?
does someone know what the problem is ?

i asume you looked how the recieve sms
settings are in
sounds and notification ?

one would hope so

yep i tried to alter them but no result.
What has to be the input to get a notification like a sound or vibration?

[Q] No notification sounds during phone call?

Is there any way to turn on notification sounds (for new text msg or email etc.) during phone calls?
I find myself constantly taking my phone away from my ear during calls to check if there are any new notifications since the sounds get muted during call and find this kind of annoying. Seems like this should be a standard option, no?

Turn on pulse notification light in display.
You really talk on the phone so much and receive so many notifications that this is a problem?

Notification pulse is turned on - that has nothing to do with sound. It bothers me because notification sounds worked just fine during calls on my Galaxy Nexus.
If I talk on the phone for 40 minutes but I get an important text message 5 minutes into the call that needs a timely response, yes, it is a problem.

Anyone have any ideas? This is an annoying issue.

+1. I'm looking to see if there's a solution for this.

Yes , I need to know the answer to the same , because missing out on important messages are a fear when I am on long calls . Thanks .

Anything new on this? Just got my Nexus 5 and I'm having the same issue.

Use tasker. Make a profile that makes a short vibration upon receiving a notification. You could use a sound instead of vibrate, but imo that would be annoying for you and the person you're on the phone with.

Nexus 5 issue.
There's a simple solution for this., just go into your settings>sounds and notification >interruptions. Here you can edit what notification will interrupt you while being on a call.

[Q] Ring Tone and Vibrate only last for 1 second, help....

Hello, I have a problem with my Nexus 5 (stock) ringtone and vibrate, I also had the same issue on my HTC One, which I had changed to Google Edition.
If someone calls the phone will ring and vibrate for about 1 second only and then it goes silent and stops vibrating, the call is still there ringing on the screen but just no sound or vibrate. This iv very annoying as I keep missing calls, can anyone please help with this issue.
Thanks

Did you ever find a solution to this? My phone has started doing exactly this, and I don't really know how to even begin troubleshooting it.

Yes I did. It was a 3rd party app causing the problem. A call control app that lets you accept and block numbers.....

Thanks for replying. That was my problem too. You saved me going through app by app to figure this out.
