Hi all,
Can anyone help me please,
I used to leave my BA turned off at times and when a text message came in it would wake up and tell me me there was a message...now it does not seem to do that !......I do get the message but not until I switch back on so have I got a setting wrong or what ?.....
Thanks to everyone for all previous help.

A closed shop then !!
Waste of time asking questions by the looks of it....3rd question I have ansked without getting a reply...Have to assume this site is a closed shop !!!
There's nothing wrong with your PDA. Of course if you push the power button it won't tell you the message is received. Indeed, when I have new incoming message the Blue Angel notifies me with short sound stream. If your problem consists of not playing the stream then you should try preforming Hard Reset. If Hard Reset doesn't help, try installing Windows mobile 6(if you are not using it at the moment).
Hope this Helps. Good Luck!
I think it is how the phone works. You can install a third party software to alert you. I use phoneAlarm to correct the situation. It plays a tune when I receive an sms or a missed call and it will repeat itself every x minutes of your choice.

Hey guys. I've noticed that my new XDA2s is horribly slow and unstable in comparison to the XDA2 which it replaced courtesy of my insurance.
Anyway, thought that as its so appaulingly slow, the "close" feature of pocketplus would be brilliant for speeding things up a tad (and hopefully stopping the chronic crashing).
Anyhow, although it works, it seems to make sending text messages... well interesting. They take up to 4 minutes to send IF they send at all.
My friend with a 2s (with imate ROM) also experiences the same problem. Anyone found a way around it? Sorry if this has already had a thread, I'm a bit of a n00b and I dont think I understand the forum search properly lol.

Hiya Mike,
The trick is to not let Pocket Plus close the Messaging program. To do this, go to Pocket Plus options, select the close button options and select the "Exceptions" tab. Add the messaging program (should be "tmail.exe") to the list and this should solve your problem.
Craig.
that sure helps!
cheers!
I can't believe I didn't think of that! Lol. Cheers bud, I'll give it a go when I get back to my docking station
Perfect Thanks for the help.
I've just added Pocket Plus today and within 4hrs, i've soft reset it 3 times. Does anyone know why? I'm using XDA IIs with Pocket Informant and Pocket Breeze. My wireless standby light still flashes green but the Today screen is completely frozen.
Does anyone know why? or maybe offer some insite as to why?
Thank you.. !
Same for me until I stopped playing with SPB Pocket Plus options. Leave them alone and all should be well. I contacted SPB and they said they couldn't replicate the problem but many others on this forum have had problems.
My Xda 2s need resetting about 4 times a day regardless. It likes to freeze when I press the hardware buttons. I reckon if I do 4 different tasks (ie. recieve a call, send a message, listen to a song and open Word for example) I can rely on having to coft reset. Mina does th same as described above. It also likes to not bring up caller ID, or I get calls which connect, but hang up on the other person. I'm really surprised this thing passed trading standards :s
Hey everyone
Well, for the past 3 years i have been using the XDA 2 I and I really love it. Recently , however, I had considered buying a 3g handset. I managed to pick up the HTC TYTN on ebay.
Firstly, Active sync 4.5 just doesn't work!! crashes more often than i can count.
Secondly, for the first time ever the built in outlook program will chack my emails over WIFI, the 2i never accomplished this for me, I could ONLY do it on GPRS. but while there are favourable differences there are two simple ones which annoy me most and I am wondering if anyone knows how to disable , or registry hack the option.
1) after sending a text, and the little envelope appears at the top of the screen confirming the send, the 2i gave a gentle 'pip' where as the tytn make a loud tone noise... i cannot find a software option to turn this off... can it be done? if not how?
2) when checking my credit, i don't call vodafone 2345 number, I type *#1345# and get the balance displayed on my screen.. the 2i made NO noise as the commande succeeded, but the tytn makes a big song and dance with yet another tone... once more, can't find a way to turn it off... can anyone think of possible solutions?
Thank you for your time,
.........IB a n e
Has anyone encountered these problems? any ideas?
cheers
Dude, for the message tone, use Schaps advanced config 2.xxx(do a search and you'll find a .cab file). This allows you to shut off the message sent confirmation sound. As for the other, I cant tell you but is it the same as an sms recieved sound? If so you might have to look in your settings>sounds & notifications>notifications for anything that might cause this. also make sure that in settings>sounds & notifications>sounds that "events(warnings, system events) has been unticked. This gets rid of a heap of annoying sounds. hope this helps.... Cheers
wow, excellent advice, thank you. The snapps program was already on my tytn actually, and it worked a treat!
As for the other noise problem... its not the same as the text tone, and I checked all the tones, none correspond to it. That option in sound has been unticked already, i hate all those lil sounds!
but with the sms confirm gone, i can live with the text balance noise.. just mute for a second
cheers once more mate, i appreciate the help.

Good day.
I tried to look up for this in google and search here, and got everything else except answer for my inquiry.
I wanted my 8525 to beep or do something each time I went one minute during a call or a certain time was reached. Is there any way to do that by changing a setting, or would I need a certain software for that?
Thanks,
Anyone?
I really need to be in track of my minutes made in a call, and I would really like to have my 8525 alert me every time I reach a minute or a certain second is reached.
Try Spb Phone Suite !
Try Spb Phone Suite !
I cannot seem to find any option for that on the software =S.
do some searching noobs

PEACE!
Good morning,
I seem to have a slight problem. Whenever I take my phone off the silent mode (which is not a lot) and put it either on notify with a sound or buzz it does not do anything when I get a text unless I leave the screen on. Strangely enough it does work when I get an incoming call.
Is this because I have it on silent for days on end? Or is there something wrong?
Even though its not a massive problem for me, it is somewhat annoying sometimes, as at times I want to be notified
Hope someone can help me!
Regards,
priscilla
I believe this the same problem I am having! Was just about to make a post about it.
The message tone doesnt go off when the recieving a new message. Never really wondered whether it had anything to do with turning it off silent before though.
I've had mine for about a week and this issue is really frustraing me, as I've recently had a major ear operation which has rendered me half deaf. So its not helping much
Any help would be great!
Notification Reminder
I was having a lot of trouble with my new TP2 because I was missing all my notifications. The thing is in my pocket always but I had to pull it out and look at the screen every 15 minutes just to see if I was missing anything.
The solution for me is a program that I use on my Treo Pro:
http://discussion.treocentral.com/treo-pro/177846-treo-alert-pro-treo-pro.html
This nifty little thing will keep bugging you (if you want it to) until you pay attention.
giving this a bash, cheers mate
i had the same issue. i found two different problems. 1 touchflo would not enable all the sound when taken off silent. i disabled touchflo and had this problem again. after some research i went to settings/sounds and notifications/notifications tab. the box was unchecked for programs and alarms. checked the box no more problems

Ah, I think that that is my problem! I'll give it a try later as I'm off in a few minutes
A big thanks to all the other people that gave a solution too If this doesn't work, I'll try the program.
I don't get my texts while my screen is off. Once the screen is turned on, they come through, but not while off. HELP!

Same problem here. I'm running 6.5 WWE

Nope not for me.
I havent notcied that problem with mine. Also att stock rom on the tilt 2 only have the newest radio installed 4.4.9 (i think it is). and no issues with sms or mms not coming in when the screen is off, never noticed an issues before updating the radio either though.
Try this: Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications > Event:
Reminders > check "Display message on screen."
new text message > check "Display message on screen."
new MMS message > check "Display message on screen."
Ect ..
Also .. try this cab ..
I spoke too soon. I have recently been encountering this ever since I flashed the htc stock rom 1.86.401.0. it doesnt happen often, but it has caught my attention. before it would come thru with the screen off and when it did come thru the screen wouldnt turn on which was great, but now sometimes it will come thru and sometimes it wont until I turn the screen on, and I have events notification unchecked, I like the idea that the screen doesnt come on to avoid accidential touching of the screen when in the clip. So has anyone found anything to make it stop? Using tilt 2 on ATT.
this sometimes happens to me but a soft reset helped a bit i have no clue as to why this happens but id like to get an answer if anyone can post back
same thing had happened to me. i found out it was the new pocket shield that i was running that kept me from getting the they r suppose to come in.. hard reset will kill it and should b up n running... im on sprint running stock rom!
Werll I dont have the pocket shield. And mine started doing it after flashing the stock rom on HTC site for EU. So I know its not any programs I put in or any custom roms. I think what happens is the radio possibly falls asleep at times and doesnt wake up.
this happens to me as well, but not all the time. Im on official WWE 6.5 Asia ROM.
Strangely, this happen whenever i use custom ringtones (not from windows). Whenever i switch to any ring from windows, the message comes all the time. Can anybody confirm this?
I have the same problem. I have an official Eastern Europe ROM 1.86.401.1. (clean install, no third parties soft installed).
The problem appears even with windows ringtones. I hope there will be a hotfix soon! All my friends think I am ignoring them

Same here. but I also found another bug, I know I should make another post, but I think XDA will kill me
But if you happen to notice that along with this, you will notice that at times, the txt will come thru but you get no alert. And I am using the same rom your using. Its been happening since this rom, and also happens with nrgz rom so its specific to the rom not the tinkering. But I was txting someone today and after about the 3 or 4th interchange I noticed the person hadnt txt back in like 10 mins, when I turned the screen on there was a txt msg that didnt notify me, didnt turn on or alert me, so there seems to be two bugs with it.
Unless anyone has looked into this, I am going to look further and see if this is only when using HTC's enhanced msg program, if it happens thru WinMO going thru all messages. I'll let you know unless someone has looked into this already.

so far im using the ringtones that is provided by default from the windows and everything is good. Will report back though if i do find the problem again.
Oh and btw i had the stock 6.1 WWE Asia ROM before i upgrade to the official 6.5, the 6.1 behave the same way too. Perhaps it is the manila messaging that cause the problem
edit: I contacted HTC via email and they said that they "have no special setting" for this isssue. They suggest me to perform a hardreset. I replied back, "i have and the problem still exist". I'll see what they send me tomorrow and i'll share it with you guys.
I do suggest that we all report this bug to HTC via their email customer service thing so that they recognise the problem and release the hotfix.

I think they are going to have a difficulty with this one because its not repetative and is intermittent. I can say I never noticed this with the HTC Fuze and dont think I ever had this problem.
And being that it doesnt happen often enough I dont think people are going to catch it and they are going to think that they just didnt hear it, unlike us nuts
Hi guys i have posted this on another thread but it has similar symptoms, below is what i have posted in the thread.
I am having a problem with the notification system.
Lets say a person Name "A" sent me a sms, the phone will ring and the light blinks if i did not attend to it.
However the problem starts whenever I replied "A" but left the phone in the TF3D threaded msg screen with "A". After sometime the phone goes to standby. But when "A" replies my msg again, they phone only vibrates and does not ring. The Yellow Led does not blink as well.
I am currently using a stock ROM and i am not sure if you guys experience this as well.
This is Rather annoying as most of the time after replying a person's sms, i would just hit the standby button straight away without bother exiting the threaded sms screen. But if i do that, the next sms that comes in from the same person will not ring or trigger the LED.
I am not sure if this problem has been posted and fix, but after many days of searching i cant seem to find a solution for it.
some basically it means the notification did not come through only in the manila threaded msg screen with the specific person, because i guess they somehow got tricked to thinking that we are actually reading the msg when in reality the screen is off and we are not reading it. Please Check if this describe your problem.
I still need a solution for this
pukipuki,
Seems based on what your saying this might be the htc manila msg program, can you confirm if the same happens if you go to all msgs and bring up the person your talking to thru there and see if it happens that way too? My suspicision is that it wont do it, but I want to be sure, cause thats been my guess all along.
Or can anyone else confirm that it is only happening in the htc threaded msg and not the winmo threaded msgs.
My suggestion would be to try turning System Event Sounds on in the Sounds section in the Settings tab in TouchFLO/Sense. (Alternatively you can acheive the same effect by ticking the Events checkbox in the Sounds tab in "Sounds & Notifications" in Settings for WinMo.)
I came across the 'no sound alert' problem for new texts and found that the audio alert tone came back when I made the above change. (Funnily enough when I was having this problem, I had enabled vibrate for new texts and the phone vibrated even though there was no audio.)
Even with that setting on, the problem still exists.
