Hi guys!
I own a Touch 3g (Jade). After the last (and first) Hard Reset my phone doesnt play a sound or vibrate when an sms arrives.
after the hard reset it worked without problems. I already checked the windows settings, a sound is activated. As well i activated the LED and a notification bubble. Those work without problems.
I've already been searching the registry and found the values wich calibrate the sms notification, but they where correct (ive read a post in this forum about that topic as well).
has anybody an idea of how to make my phone ring and vibrate again when sms arrive?
I would rehardreset it had times when that was necessary
is there no other option? i really dont want to reconfigure everything again

You don't need to hard reset, because if you do you're just gonna install the previous programs that corrupted your settings for SMS sound notifications.
That's all you need to know really. Everything else is just trial and error from there.
i've solved the issuie via installing smiley sms
thx alot for ur help
just go into your sound/alert settings, and pick a new sound or set it to vibrate. (is this not common sense?) it is built into windows mobile. i cannot believe you installed a 3rd part application that will just slow your phone down more, when the fix is just a settings change
didnt work, as i wrote i checked those settings, tried to change the sounds and even searched the registry....
but its a good solution, now i got smilies in my sms too
cheers

There is Register setting as below (BACK UP YOUR DEVICE BEFORE CHANGING THE REGISTRY)
Repeat notifications for text , email messages and missed calls
Under HKCU/ControlPanel/Notifications find the following keys for Email, Text messages and missed phone calls:
A877d65Axxxxxxx
A877d65Bxxxxxxx
A877D660xxxxxxx
Also find Key 15F11F90xxxx for reminders.
Copy the Options value from the Reminders key and overwrite the options value in missed calls or both email and text message keys with this value (1073741853)
Once you have done this, go to start - settings - sounds and notifications - notifications. Under events, select new email message, new text message or missed calls and you'll notice that the repeat option that was grayed out is now enabled and can be selected.
Cheers (dont forget to backup your device before)
I have tried the similar approach (using other software that seems to able to hack the Notification settings) to enable the repeat option. With that enabled, I have a problems with my 5 seconds WAV sound for SMS. When I cancel the message while the WAV is playing, it is somehow not recognised as a 'dismissed' notification, and it keeps on 'bugging'. That's quiet a while ago, and possibly on the 1st versin of WM5. Probably you'll get lucky on the newer OS, but I think the may have the option greyed out for a reason.
Anyway, do that Bulldog said, backup your system, just incase you need a hardreset.
hi, im asking about the sms sent notification, i like it turned on but i dont like the beeping sound when the notification comes is there a way i can turn it off? the notification sound not the notification.
thanks
Go to settings---> Sounds and notifications. You can adjust whether you want sound or not for a specfic notification by ticking or unticking the box in front.
doesn't bother me but i think the OP is looking to turn off the sound when an SMS is successfully sent and not the one for delivery success. That is one of the few, if not the only, sound that can't be turned off. Don't know if there is a registry entry for it.
Advanced Config will disable the notification. But I think it is an all or nothing proposition. Sound and Visual or nothing at all
I actually tried to look for a solution to this thing a while ago.. and everyone told me it's both or none at all.
ive tried many methods but i havnt succeeded , althought im pretty darn sure that u can turn it off, when i flashed a rom onto my touch that rom had a advanced config that could get rid of it
so with the factory rom...I wont be able to turn the notification off? If so, where do I find this advanced configuration?
do a search for Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool. Install that and "have fun".

nono , the ability to customize that with advance config was only in that rom i cant do it with other roms so strange , the rom is called touch essential
Sms notification screwed up! Right after installing and uninstalling phone weaver. I use advanced config and the settings still display correctly. Any help would be awesome. Im currently receiving delivery notice went sent and no notice when received. I would like them reversed.
well, removing the sent notification is done thru:
start/messaging/menu/options/SMS \ MMS/request delivery notifications
now.. before anything else, check that in the Sounds And Notifications, you have your incoming text message set with a notification... if that doesn't work, maybe phone weaver's settings killed something in your registry.. maybe you should reinstall and change them..
hard reset is the answer to everything!
We already realized, in many other threads, that hardresets are last resort. we don't offer hard resets before we check for other possible solutions.
thank you
I am wondering if anyone knows how i can get my vibrate-ring to stay set that way, i can set it taht way but it always go's back after a few calls or resetting my device. i searched but could not find the answer i would appriciate any help. thanks
its a known bug for CDMA/Sprint... my friends Tmobile TP2 don't have this issue
I contacted HTC about it. They said:
We are currently aware of this issue and will be addressing it in the next firmware update. Please keep an eye out at www.htc.com/us under the Support Tab. Pick your device from the dropdown. When software updates are available they will be posted there.
So, it's not a big deal for me & will be gone when we get WM 6.5.
ok, well thanks for that info, atleast i know its not just my tp2..
I was having the same issue and found this fix over at PPCG, haven't had a call yet to test it but from what I gather it works.
EDIT: works fine for me.

This was a huge irritation for me. THANKS for posting the fix!
yeah, seems to happen if you put it on ring and vibrate, then later turn your volume down to vibrate only and then turn your volume back up. it will then be Only set to Ring. Doesn't seem to affect text messages though. I will check out this fix and see if it works but above is how you reproduce. Set it to ring and vib, then go adjust volume to vib, then back up and then go back in and see what it is set as.
Works great! thanks!
thanks for the quick fix find, lwrdrchvy2.
Ring Vibe Fix Doesnt Work on WM 6.5 Sprint ROM
I have the same issue. My HTC Touch Pro 2 with Official 6.5 ROM will not stay on VIB for ringtones and will not VIB for SMS. I can 'check' them and then I can go back into settings and they are unchecked! This 'fix' is not working for me although it DID work for WM 6.1 on the same phone. Any help? Please! I need VIB & RING for calls and SMS!
Thanks!

Chaohliu, I see this but I'm unclear what it does?
Bengermino, did you load the cab before trying to set it in WM6.5 with the new ROM functionality? That is the impression I got when reading your post. I apologize for being 'mr obvious' but I haven't experienced this issue [with "notify me...." checked] since I flashed WM6.5 onto mine. If my impression is right, then try the following steps. If I'm wrong, don't waste time reading further down this post.
Settings
Menu
All Settings
Sounds and Notifications
Notifications
Select event I selected Messaging: New MMS, and the following steps are related to that choice.
Check 'Play Sound'
Check 'Vibrate'
Click OK in top right corner.
Good luck with resolving this!
once you uncheck that box, it seems to make ring and vibrate stick. i wouldnt bother with the cabs and stuff when this is the most effective solution. not sure why that is, but ive done it many times and it works.

Cool, thanks for the explanation!
The name of the thread says it all, i'm not getting any more notification for the sms i get.
No sound, no icon in the notification bar, nothing...
I'm just able to see that i have a new message because i set Handcent to display the number of unread sms on the Launcher Pro dock.
Yes, i have checked all the settings, yes, i have tried other application, yes i have tried to change my rom (tried the stock 2.3.4 , reseted it, didn't work, so i installed the CM 7.1 RC...).
It's kind of annoying, i have to wake up the phone now to check the new sms, it's killing the fun!
Anyone has had the same problem? Anyone knows what could have caused it? I didn't change anything at all, it started with no reason.
FYI i'm french, living in france, Nexus S i9023, and getting pissed off because of that thing XD
Thanks for you help guys!
Come on mates, don't tell me i'm the only one having this issue???
Even on the french forums nobody's ever had it, i can't have that much bad luck! XD
ok, one more try.
My provider kept the phone for one month trying to fix the problem, which they did by "updating the software"... bulls**t as it was already the latest version of anything available on my phone. The problem is still here, i can't get any notification for my SMS!!
The thing is, while they had my phone repaired, i used my old HTC Hero... And i got the same trouble! It seems the problem is my google account! BUT i tried with a new adress i created just to check it out... And i had the same problem...
To be honest, i'm fed up having to wake up the phone to check the sms!
I can't find a reason why my notifications are off now!
I tried a non-android phone (samsung player one) and i got all the notifications!
It's driving me crazy, does anyone have a clue???
i had the same issue ever since I bought my Nexus S but the setting for vibrating when you receive a text message is in the Messaging app after you press the menu key and go into settings
Messaging App --> Menu Key --> Settings --> Notification Settings
Hope this helps!!
Helped on JB4.1.2 by turning SMS notification off (yes, it was on by default, but no Notification) and then on again after exiting the sms app.
I had the same problem...
fullwiped, reflashed gapps, worked again.
If you're not willing to wipe, I remember that Go SMS was the only sms.apk able to notify me of incomming text at the time. You may give it a try
