No SMS Delivery reports

Hi,
i have searched many sites looking for the answer but cannot find it. I have a new 750v from vodafone, but there is no option for sms delivery notifications under messaging options as it states in the user manual. there is an option for mms delivery reports, but not for sms. I have tried the registry fix in the forum for other wm5 devices, but to no avail.
Any ideas?

same problem, no idea

have you tried this one by Raymonds
his is what we have on ppc-phones. maybe the setup is similar
Use a registry editor and go to:
HKCU\control panel\notifications\default\options
change the dword value to whatever suits your needs.
here are the following dword value and corresponding results:
0 - show icon
1 - show icon and play notification sound
2 - show icon and vibration
3 - show icon and vibration and play notification sound
4 - same as 0
5 - same as 1
6 - same as 3
7 - same as 3
8 - show icon and notification bubble
9 - show icon and play notification sound and show notification bubble
10 - show icon and notification bubble and vibration
11 - show icon and play notification sound and show notification bubble and vibration
I set mine to 4

That's very odd. I'm using a treo with a vodafone rom & it's the other way around. I can set delivery notifications for sms but the same setting on mms is blank???
BTW I'm using the following...
SW ver. : TREO750-1.15-VFE
HW ver. : A
FW ver. : 1.12.0a.00
The treo I have is unlocked.

Anyone have any idea how I remove the icon from new sms received ? All the dwords suggested has the icon, and I don´t want it.
Thanks

Missed Calls and New SMS notifications on Treo 750/WM6

History:
I have the Telstra version of WM6 running on my Treo 750 (Australia)
I dont think much of the WM6 vanilla way of handling new SMSs and missed calls. At first you get a notification balloon and beep and vibrate if you set it. Fine, this happens at the initial point and then nothing - there is no follow up, no repeating and no flashing LED. The phone could be sitting in front of you and you would have no idea anyone rang at all. The settings in WM6 for missed call notifications has a 'repeat' option which is greyed out. Useful! whats the story there Palm/Microsoft ?
The next step for me was to get an add-on to give repeating alerts and tried SPB phone suite which works nice. (I wish it would incorporate the flashing LED as a selectable option). The problem then comes with double notification - with a missed call there you have to do multiple presses to acknowledge the standard windows notification and then do the phone suite thing so that the ongoing alerts stop. All in all it was a pain - albeit useful.
After digging up a number of write-ups on registry hacks here's what I worked out for WM6 on my treo;
There are two items to play with; both are in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications
The two items are the long strings that start with a bracket;
{283E0018-..... for the new message, and
{A877D660-...... for the missed calls
you can rifle through all the items and look at the default entry which will give you a description of what that item is for.
not sure if these are the same for all WM6 machines.
The string to work with is 'Options' which you will find in each of these two. (You will need a registry editor, by the way, plenty of entries on how to find one)
Previous info I found suggested the options worked in a base 2 summation using;
1 - sound notifiaction
2 - vibrate
4 - LED flash
8 - Message notification
e.g if you wanted sound, vibrate & message then options would be 11 (i.e. 1+2+8)
I tried this on my Treo but it didn't work properly. The solution I was after was to turn off the windows notification so that phone suite would look after it. Whatever I used, I could not stop the windows notification coming up.
Anyway here's what I found worked:
for the missed calls I set the options to Dec 536870919 (Hex 20000007)
this gives the sound and vibrate and NO windows notification for a missed call.
For the New SMS I set options to Dec 15 (Hex F)
This gives me sound, vibrate, message but also flashing LED! I dont no why the LED part wont kick in for missed calls - maybe someone can solve that part for us.
Anyway, I'm no real wizz on different phones so dont start peppering me with why doesn't it work on my xxxxxx phone. Just passing on what I worked out.

Nice tip.
Thanks!

great tip!
it works
thank!

i suggest to download Spb Phone Suite and you will never missed a call, voicemail, Sms, ever again

How to change all the setting for all Notifications

Thanks for getting me started. I mapped out all the options in the notification area.
I hatted that my brand new Sprint Touch Pro was beeping at me because of an appointment reminder and I needed to dismiss the reminder before it would quite beeping (the Repeat check box is grayed out, but selected for Reminders by default, so it couldn't be unselected). Not anymore
My phone uses MW6.1, so I have only tested these values on this.
First a list of the reminders in the Registry found in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications
15F11F90… - Reminder
695F6B37… - RSS-Hub:New Item
85ee47b2… - QuickGPS
8ddf46e7… - Connection established
8ddf46e8… - Connection disconnected
A877D658… - Begin Sync
A877D658… - Beam:Autoretrieve
A877D659… - End Sysnc
A877D65A… - Messaging: New Email
A877D65B… - Messaging: New Text
A877D660… - Missed Call
A877D661… - Voice Mail
DDBD3B44… - Wireless Network Detect
There are two important keys:
AvailableOptions​Options​
The values in these keys will determine what options are avaliable (AvailableOptions) and which options are selected (Options).
The values relate to the following (in the order on the Notifications tab):
1 = Play Sound​16 = Repeat​8 = Display message on screen​4 = Flash light for ...​2 = Vibrate​
Just like donr said, you add the numbers of the notifications you desire. So if you wanted all of them selected you would put 31 in the Options key. If you only wanted a message and vibrate you would put 10.
Next step.
AvailableOptions determine which boxes are available and which are grayed out. (we will leave out Repeat until later). Options determines which are selected, and yes you can select something in Options that is not selected in AvailableOptions, it will appear as a grayed out check box that is selected.
So if AvailableOptions is set to 10 only the Display message on screen and Vibrate check boxes will be available, the rest will be grayed out. If the Options value is 14, the Play Sound will be grayed out, unselected; the Display message will be available and selected; the Flash light will be grayed out, but selected and 5 min (Duration key = 5); Vibrate will be available and selected.
So set the options you want to select and unselect using the Available Options key and use the Options key to specify which are selected. Changing the selection in the Notifications tab will change the value of the Options key, but will not change the AvailableOpions key.
The only values accepted for either are 1-15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31
Is is because you can't have Repeat (16) without Play sound (1), that's why there are numbers missing. I tested putting 16 in AvailableOptions and 31 in Options and all boxes were selected, but grayed out.
Now for the Repeat checkbox
Things get slightly more complicated when the Repeat box gets involved. The way the AvailableOptions values function do not change. Setting it to 15 will make each box, except the repeat box, available, with the Repeat box grayed out.
It seems that the Repeat box is governed by the Options value first and the AvailableOptions second. So setting AvailableOptions to 31 and Options to 15 would result in Repeat being unselected and grayed out.
The only way to un-gray the Repeat check box is to set AvailableOptions to 31 (it still matters) and set Options value to 1073741824 + (what you want selected).
So 1073741825 (1073741824 + 1) is only Play Sound,​while 1073741855 (1073741824 + 31) will select all of them.​
The only thing I can figure is that 1073741824 is 40000000 in HEX and that is needed to turn on access to the Repeat check box. The values added to that affect what happens to after that.
If you set AvailableOptions to 11 and Options to 107374185, all of the boxes will be checked, but Repeat and Flash light will be grayed out.
I have seen different values listed on the web, but the values I list here are what windows assigned when certain boxes were checked and unchecked. I did us one of the values I found on the web to determine 1073741824 was needed to open access to the Repeat check box.
Have fun setting your Notifications.

Issue with Twitter notifcations

So on the htc 10 which is what I am coming from I am able to choose silent notification or different notification level for each app, that seems to have changed. I cant find any way to get rid of vibration or sound just for specific apps within the notification setting panel. In the Twitter app theres nothing specific and if there is I have it off and in the app settings within the phone it just gives me the type of notifications such as direct messages, news etc. No where does it let me turn off sounds or vibrations for the app.

Within the Twitter app in the settings the only option is under Display and Sound, second from the bottom you can turn off in app sounds.
If you go to the app settings (where you would force close or clear data) and tap Notifications it lists multiple categories such as Direct Messages, Related to you and your tweets, etc. Here you can disbale ALL notifications (but moving the slider at the top to OFF) and the checkbox next to each of these turns them on or off completely.
If you tap on the item like Direct Messages (or any other item) you can again toggle them off for that function (same as unchecking on the previous screen) and set the behavior. I have most set to Show Silently, which will not vibrate or make sound. If Make Sound is on, vibrate is available under the Advanced roll up. Review settings for each type and turn vibrate off or change all to Show Silently if that's what you're after.
Hope this helps.

Duplicate/No Notifications

I have two annoying issues with notifications:
1. Any time I receive an email at Gmail or stock mail app it is displayed in the pull-down notification area twice. The same with downloading things, for example from Google Drive - I see two similar lines.
2. When I receive an SMS (service number or even my contact) there is no sound and no notification in the top bar.
I checked the settings - SMS is set to sound and display.
Latest stock Android 9.

The only time I had this happen was when I accidentally had two of the same accounts configured on my phone or in the gmail itself. or just delete the account on your phone and reconfigure,, or reset the phone.. Hth.

[OPPO A53] Possible bug with notifications after Android 11 update

Hello,
I'm currently having an issue with notifications on my OPPO A53 phone, after the v11.1 ColorOS / Android 11 update.
The problem is that I can't see the notification bubbles from Whatsapp nor any other app anymore, in the status bar, while the lock screen is on.
I've tried every possible combination of settings I could think of, but they still fail to show. Whatsapp has all the permissions and notification settings activated too. If the option "Wake screen when a notification is received" is activated, the screen does wake up (lock screen is on), but nothing is shown in the status bar.
Also, is there any way to change the color of the black semi-transparent background that appears when you pull down the notifications' drawer? I don't believe it was like this in the previous version (think it was fully transparent), and honestly I don't like the "new" one.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

I updated to ColorOS 11 and my notifications works fine.
but have you encountered a problem with refresh rate?. mine is randomly changed to 60hz even though i set it to 90hz and on the same app.

Nope, the refresh rate is at 90 for me (just checked the settings).
These are the steps to reproduce the notifications' bug:
1. Open/unlock your phone.
2. Receive a whatsapp message from anyone
3. Check that you do see the bubble in the status bar since the phone is open
4. Press the power button to lock your phone
5. Press the power button to unlock your phone
6. Check the screen/status bar -> there is no bubble nor any other notification related to that unread whatsapp message.
