when my alarm goes off in the morning the "notification" has stopped popping up so i can disable it, I have to let the alarm go on for the entire time. How do i fix that irritating problem?
not to steal your thunder but i can't find a way to silence text message sounds as they occur.. any ideas?
OK, this is really pissing me off here, i cant stop my alarm now. it goes off and keeps repeating, i have to reset the phone to stop it. the "notification" window used to pop up and allow me to dismiss it or snooze for a selected periond of time.
First deactivate any alarms and go to settings/sounds & notifications and make sure that "notifications" is not selected, for now...
Then I sugest using "Check Notifications" program (google for it) to clean your memory from duplicated reminders and alarms
And then soft reset...
Let me know if that helped...
perhaps your problem is that under settings / sounds and notifications "notification" for alarm is NOT selected.. doesnt it have to be for popping up??
I have the same problem with the noticiations. I have to click them on every day. They turn off all the time. Any idea's
got it working, took what you guys said and put it together.
settings/all settings/personal tab/sounds and notifications/sound tab - then CHECK "events, programs AND notifications (alarms, reminders)"
then go to the "notifications" tab and go to the event drop down list and choose "reminders" its near the bottom, and make sure "display message on screen" is checked.
solved it for me, thanks for your help
I've done all that. My problem is that every day all my notifications get unchecked. Why?
perhaps you need to make those changes and then soft reset the phone?
other than that I have no idea unless your running a diff program for your notifications and it is conflicting with the stock notification settings
I noticed the same issues. Then, I switched to gAlarm and everything was better. It's a better alarm program anyway. Way better.

This is probably me just not being used to the PPC version of Windows Mobile (I've been using non-touch screen smartphones too long).
For some reason, my calendar reminders are not showing on the screen. I hear the notification sound, but unless I bring them up manually using the icon bar at the top of the screen I never see the text so I can't dismiss them.
What have I done wrong here?
I have the same problem/frustration. I don't think it is anything you are doing wrong. I think it is (crappy) functionality of the TouchFlo interface. IMHO the TouchFlo interface renders meeting notifications useless. The home page does not show enough information and the issue you described. Interested to hear form others how they deal with it. I turned off meeting notifications because of this. Luckily for me I have a Blackberry sitting right next to it to remind me.
Yeah, same here.
Please check your settings:
Start -> Settings -> Sounds & Notifications -> Tab: Notifications.
I would bet that for the Event "Reminders" the option "Display message on screen" is not checked. Right?
HTH
Go to settings, personal , Sounds and Notifications, select the notifications tab, pick Reminders in the event drop down and make sure "Display Message on Screen" is checked.
DeepThought and JoeWilcox nailed it. That was the issue. Very strange to not have that as a default. Thanks guys.
Nope, still no reminders popping up.
Does anyone know how to turn these off? I remember reading the advice on how to do this, and now I can't find it.
I get the audio notification, but then, I have to go and drag down on the toolbar to show notifications and then tap the one for the latest sms, even if I've already answered it.
I'd like to know how to NOT have toolbar (taskbar?) notifications trigger with every sms.
I think going into the app, menu, settings, notification settings, and checking "privacy mode" will get you what you want...
Not sure if anyone else is having this issue but I'm getting constant notifications on my A9. Doesn't matter if it's an email, text, twitter, missed call, voicemail, snapchat, etc. I'll get the initial notification and every ten seconds later I'll get it again until I clear it from the notification bar. It's getting to the point where I'm about to just turn off all notifications and just physically check every so often or just go back to my M8.
Anyone else have this issue or know how to stop the re occuring notifications?
**edit**
Nevermind, I'm an idiot. :embarrased:
- goto settings
- Accessibity
-scroll down to 'Notification reminder'
- Press this so that it is OFF
Life is always more complicated than you want
This is true, I seem to do that alot lol.
I was having the same problem, thanks for posting the fix as it is not obvious to go into accessibility to turn off these notifications and PS I did turn off all notifications and that did not stop them.

It has been like this for awhile, but it hasn't really been bothering me I guess until now I realized the importance of it, which I should of done this long ago cause it's been like this for a couple of months. Notifications are on, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
So, with notiication, do you mean just the sound and vibration? Or also the message in the upper tray?
It's not much information. So here are some possibilities:
- you have installed a skin and have not selected any sounds.
- in the accessability men you have set: play no sounds/feedback at all (it's for deaf people)
- You have some kind of do not disturb mode on, without the notification in the tray saying so.
- You have backgrond syncing of, and now apps only sync when you use them. So you get no notification.
- sound settings and vibration settings are off (not likely of course)
- the phone is instructed to play notifications to another device (watch or some other bluetooth device)
- your phone is not working properly. Try to restore to factory default and see if it is something in the software, or hardware. If not working after reset, ==> waranty
EDIT: in the title you say: when I get a message. you mean text message? NOtification sounds can be changed. Sms messages can have their own sounds en settings. It's in the sound menu.

Alright this may help or not, but let's say you message me thru the default standard messaging thru the phone. Usually, the recipient would get a notification of that message, shortly after being sent depending on the area's signal. I, however do not get a notification, vibration, ring, I do not get anything that notifies me in any way that I got that message, so I could being doing whatever on my phone, receive an important message about work or something, and never know about it. However I do have Smart Launcher and the messaging icon does have notification numbers to the top left of it, but that doesn't help really.

Where did you check if notifications were enabled. In settings AND in the app itself? you can also try to clear cache and storage of the app.
Ok I'm dumb notifications were on when I went thru messaging, but when I went thru the application manager they weren't on. Honestly don't remember how that'd happened, but thanks for the help bro.
So I upgraded to OOS12, i did a factory wipe as well to start fresh. Noticed odd stuff, like I wasn't getting text message notifications, they were coming in but notifications were set only to show up in the status bar not notify me. Then weird stuff like my alarm didn't wake me up this morning- the clock app was set not to notify me at all!
I found the manage notifications, almost all apps were set to off. A few odd ones were on, Facebook was on, "My Files" was on...is there some reason why this is? I know there's a big push now to not have so many notifications on our phones...but it's very frustrating as I actually use my phone for work and productivity, and most of my notifications are important. I'd rather have them all on and turn off the ones that are annoying, but I don't see a setting?
