I have a samsung saga with windows mobile 6.1 and voice command version 1.6.20961. my phone will alert me via voice of upcoming events,appointments, and incoming phone calls. is there any app that will notify me of incoming text messages? currently if i receive a call from my mother for example, i get a voice that says "incoming call from mother". how can i get this same thing for my text messaging? when i text comes in from my mother i would like it to alert me the same way as my incoming phone calls. example...."incoming message from *****". is there an app that does this?
thank you
Hi, I can't think of any, but there is rather silly but working idea is that you either record your voice via notes, or downloading a sound, and under sounds and notifications in the settings folder, navigate to the notifications tab and select Messaging: New text message, and select your sound file, which is either Recording for the recorded notes file or your respective sound file. For the sound file, place it in my documents. This solution is only for all text messages and not for respective text messages from your contacts.
Hope I Have Helped!

In the normal HTC Touch Pro settings, its impossible to change the incoming SMS tune (as far as I know), and i couldnt find any good software to change it.
After some poking around with the registry editor I found a solution.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D65B-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}
Now you're supposed to see the options for Messaging: New text message
down the list you'll see 'wave', by editing the value of Wave you can set the file you want to use as your incoming SMS tune.
Hope it works for you, and PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE dont do anything if it says something else than Messaging: New text message.
setting/ sounds and notifications, select incomming new text, choose sound from drop list. tunes are plced in windows root for sms
My TP2 stopped making any notification of incoming text messages or e-mails. I thought that incoming e-mail/ sms was controlled by the sound control, and that when we turned single volume off, we were setting one volume for ringing and another for system.
Silly me, I thought that System was e-mail and SMS message. But it looks like it is only things like low battery. Am I correct?
Where the heck is the control for e-mail volume. Also, I am trying to make distinctive rings for some individual e-mails. I have been able to go into an individual contact, edit contact, and then go to ringtones. But will that give me an individual ringtone when they call, or can I also get an individual alert when they text or e-mail me.
Then net of my problem now is that e-mail reception is silent. Then when I get the sound back I want to know if it is possible to get individual alerts.
Thanks.
Settings>Sound>Advanced>
make sure Events and Program Notifications are checked.. and go into Notofications and go through the pull down menu and make sure new email and new txt and new mms have sounds selected and checked "play sound"
Thanks. I did not make it deep enough into Notifications.

I had a question regarding modifying incoming SMS. How would I go about intercepting incoming SMS and automatically modify the SMS before it is displayed in the text app. For example, I use Google Voice. The text always look like 'Contact Name - Message Body Here.' How can I have the text automatically intercepted and have all text including the space after the - deleted? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have tried a few notification apps, like LedMeKnow ... and there is a thing I can't find: voice message notification. Most apps do missed calls; issue is that there are technically missed calls the phone is not aware of: when it's out of network. Some providers send SMS in this case. When the other party leaves a message, you get a message icon.
All I want is a LED + vibration reminder when this icon is on. And I can't find any app doing this.
Not sure this has been asked before, but I was unable to find anything, so if this has been answered, please direct me to the right thread.
I receive message notifications from Whatsapp on my Gear 2, but nothing when I get a Whatsapp call, only a 'missed call' notification afterwards if I do not answer. I could not find any way to enable this. In fact the same thing happens with Skype, I receive message notifications but no call notifications.
I assume there is nothing that can be done, any ideas?
The Gear 2 Neo doesn't catch the calls directly, neither from What'sApp nor from Skype. The Gear Manager can only catch the after-call notifications when What'sApp and Skype generate them on the phone's Notification bar.
Until these apps support Wearable's from within the apps or at least generate a notification event when calls happen, you will have to live with that .
