[Q] Mango RTM Email alert when on the phone - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ever since I updated to Mango RTM on my Focus, I've been getting an odd 3 beep alert when when I get an email while on the phone.
So I'm talking to someone, an email comes in and I get a series of three tones while on the call. It's like 2 short tones and a longer third tone. Getting an alert about new email is pretty normal, but the 3 tones is annoying. I keep stopping the converstation to wait for the bings to stop.
Is anyone else having this issue? And anyone know a way to get this back to normal?
Thanks!

Message Tone

Hi guys,
I do not know if anyone else has this problem but when I receive a message on my phone and the ringtone rings, it keeps on ringing no matter what I do or whatever button I push till the tone finishes.
Does anybody have any solution or is it like this with every touch cruise?
Thanks

It's perfectly normal. The only interruptible notification sound (the WAV ones) is the alarm one.
Hi, thanks for the reply. But it is a problem for me because when I receive a message I want to hear it and then be able to stop it, but ofcourse it doesn't. I read my messages I close the inbox and the stupid thing keeps ringing. Btw, is there a software that has an option to stop the ringtone when you press some key/screen?
funny... i have the opposite problem. i don't hear or see anything when i get an SMS other than a mark that i have 1 unread sms. no sound.. no notification.. no vibration.. nothing. and i tried changing the notifications in settings but it didn't work.
i used RingToneManager but it has a problem that you can't mute SMS messages.. so i get this annoying tone in class all the time. somewhat uncomfortable.

Problem: Making call results in silence

I've been having a weird problem that has become very frequent in the past couple days. When I place a call, I will just get complete silence while the counter starts to indicate the call is being made. I thought it was just a failed attempt to connect to the network, until I did some testing and found out that the call is actually being placed and the other person can answer - but they also get silence. When this happens, I don't get that initial little digital S3 tone you hear to indicate a call is being placed, and also don't hear the normal phone ringing tone you hear when you are waiting for someone to pick up. This is now happening on 25-50% of calls I place, so when I don't hear that tone, I just have to hangup and retry a couple times until I get the tones to indicate the call is going to work. It seems like this used to happen maybe once in a very long while, like maybe if you hang up and then immediately try to dial out again...but again, it's now happening very frequently. Anyone know what is going on here?
FYI, I've been on CleanRom 6 for quite a long while with no issues, and I haven't made any changes to my phone setup in weeks that would seem to account for this new issue. Any help would be appreciated. If I can't figure it out, looks like I'll try to wipe everything and start from scratch to see if it'll get rid of the problem.
Update: Tracked this issue to Soundabout app I had recently installed. Verified by uninstalling and reinstalling that app to fix/recreate the problem.

[Q] No alerts during call even with option enabled

I've had my phone for almost two years now, and I've never been able to get sound notifications for messages, emails, or anything else during my calls. I've made sure my "Alerts on call" is checked and still nothing... I didn't see any other threads with this problem--only ones that wanted to disable this function. Why is mine so special?

I don't recall actually ever hearing notifications while on a call. I just made a phone call and while on that call, I sent a couple gmails to myself, had an alarm go off, and received an update from a sports app but I only receive vibration or silent alerts. The alarm goes off however its vibrating only unless I am off of the call.

[Q] No notification sounds during phone call?

Is there any way to turn on notification sounds (for new text msg or email etc.) during phone calls?
I find myself constantly taking my phone away from my ear during calls to check if there are any new notifications since the sounds get muted during call and find this kind of annoying. Seems like this should be a standard option, no?
Turn on pulse notification light in display.
You really talk on the phone so much and receive so many notifications that this is a problem?

Notification pulse is turned on - that has nothing to do with sound. It bothers me because notification sounds worked just fine during calls on my Galaxy Nexus.
If I talk on the phone for 40 minutes but I get an important text message 5 minutes into the call that needs a timely response, yes, it is a problem.
Anyone have any ideas? This is an annoying issue.
+1. I'm looking to see if there's a solution for this.
Yes , I need to know the answer to the same , because missing out on important messages are a fear when I am on long calls . Thanks .
Anything new on this? Just got my Nexus 5 and I'm having the same issue.
Use tasker. Make a profile that makes a short vibration upon receiving a notification. You could use a sound instead of vibrate, but imo that would be annoying for you and the person you're on the phone with.
Nexus 5 issue.
There's a simple solution for this., just go into your settings>sounds and notification >interruptions. Here you can edit what notification will interrupt you while being on a call.

SMS notification sound doesn't play if SMS arrives after screen turns off

My S6 and S4 did this too, so I'm wondering if there's a workaround.
If I'm having an SMS conversation with someone, while the phone is in my hand, I get the SMS notification sound as normal, but then I put the phone down next to me and if a new SMS arrives somewhere between the screen turning off and the phone locking itself, there is no notification sound and so if someone adds something to the conversation, I inevitably miss it until next time i check my phone.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about? is there a workaround? Thanks
it has been like that for alot of the samsung phone. I dont think there is a way to change it.
Normally i just reply and back out of the app before leaving the phone
