[Q] Application searched: Screen fllash on unread sms - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
After hours of searching I gave up.
I have a Motorola q9h (Windows Mobile (Smartphone) 6.5)
It has, sad but true, no indicator led. I missed to reply to several sms because I haven't heard the ring tone or whtever. I don't look each hour on my cell phone.
Is there an application (best case freeware) that will flash the screen while there are unread sms? Such kind of a workaround for the missing led.
Or another, maybe better way? (except to have a look more frequently)
Thanks in advance

s2u2 has that where the device will wake up and show message on screen and then uses the windows backlight time out.
maybe an option.
OOOPPPPPSS!!!! just realized you had a smart phone and not a ppc.
good day.

Thanks for your reply.
Well, s2u2... I can't slide because the device has no touch screen
By the way, my mobile turns the display on on incoming messages, but after 5 seconds (if locked) it's off again and keeps off.
It is not 'flashing' like the indicator led on the most touch based devices

Screen light when receiving emails

This was a gripe with my orbit and is the same with my orbit 2.
Is there a setting for a new email to act the same as receiving an sms, ie the screen lights up and a preview appears.
Failing that just the screen lighting up.
I have my phone on silent at work so have no idea when an email has arrived.
Thanks
Have you tried Settings>>Sounds and Settings>>Notifications Tab
- Select "Messaging: New e-mail messaging
-Adjust your sound, screen, light and vibration settings.
Or are you saying this doesn't work for you?
Sorry, should have said that. No, just doesnt light up the screen. does it with other people?

message waiting indicator light?

So does the Fuze have a message waiting indicator light that flashes like a blackberry does when you get a new email or text message?
I just sent my self an email from my PC and the phone does not beep, flash or anything. I am using S2U2 if that makes a difference (slide to unlock like an iPhone).

Its in the DPad
The D-Pad is not lighting up on new emails, do I need to turn that on? If I send a text message to this phone while S2U2 has it locked, the screen lights up for a second and then goes blank. D-Pad still does not light up, could it be a problem with the S2U2 application not activating it?
Go to settings - Sounds and Notifications - Notifications and make sure 'flash light for __" is checked
I disabled S2U2 and sent a few more emails to my BB account and no D-Pad lighting up.
Also did an SMS text test, no D-pad lighting up.
On a missed call, it DOES light up.
Is there a setting in the phone to enable this for new emails and new text messages?

LED Notifications

Hello all,
I have tried to find any app and informations about ability to notify about missed calls, new sms and emails by blinking or red LED (from green one). Even the change of frequency of green one would be nice. I have tried fews apps but no success. Is it impossible due hardware specs ? Thank you a lot.
Nope. You are right ...Not possible.

Feature Request: Blink left LED with unread sms

Hello,
i own a now a bit aged Vox as second phone.
The point is, that it DOESN'T blink with new SMS arrived!
- the led works but it simply doesn't notify my, if there's a missed SMS/Email!
Any way to fix this?
tried notif blinker from i780, just activates vibration and can't be stopped till uninstalled!
seems to be wrong LED number set by default fpr htc vox. - vibration is listed as LED in i780 too!
im on "offical 6.5"
thanks for help!
Install the AutoKeylock from maniac - it supports many notification types and you can select what shall be notified and how: http://maniac.fschreiner.de/dmdocuments/Keylock_WM5.CAB
Main purpose is to lock the device - as the name says.
There is also "Don't Forget" something specialized on notifications - but I remember it had eaten some more CPU (in early versions - may be), check for yourself: http://magazin.softimage.cz/dontforget/download/

How to disable screen turning on for ALL text messages received (ALL SMS apps)

Hey guys,
I just got a ZMAX 2 and am loving it so far for the most part. Except, there's one little thing that's really bothering me. I often have my phone in my pocket and I don't use a pin/password on my phone. Thus, when the screen turns on in my pocket when I get a text, it often starts tapping all over the screen. In addition in is a waste of battery imo!
What I've tried:
Looking all through the settings. Couldn't find anything. I've tried putting it in Do Not Disturb mode, mute mode, nothing stops the screen from turning on when a text is received.
I installed other messaging apps: I've used Hangouts, Messenger, and Textra and explicitly said 'do not wake screen'. It still wakes.
I tried disabling ALL notifications by the SMS app that I have set as default. Guess what: the screen still comes on (and then shows a blank lockscreen).
I'm starting to think this is a setting baked right in, independent of the default SMS app at the time. Will we need root to fix this problem?
Any suggestions/thoughts are greatly appreciated!
