How to enable "SMS Delivery Notification"?? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Just got a new TP2 replacement for the TP1 I dropped, it came pre-loaded w/6.5, and im still running on the stock Sprint ROM w/no other apps, etc.
Ive read other posts, but maybe im just retarded or missing something.. I installed advanced configuration tool 3.3 > enabled "sms delivery notification" under messaging > soft reset > send text to gf > get reply from gf... *** no delivery notification!!
Anyone know why? Do I have to disable threaded layout or something? Or do they go somewhere other than the standard sms inbox?
Thanks!

If you're using the HTC messaging app you need to enable delivery notifications while writing a message. Menu -> Tools -> Message Option

thanks for the reply. but i cant seem to find 'tools' under any sms menu button.. and I assume by htc messaging app, you are referring to the one that opens if you select the sms icon in TF3D nav bar and then just tap the screen?
sorry for the n00b question lol.. but ive only had this phone for a couple of days now and am still trying to get the hang of it.

You're welcome. The Menu appears when you writing a message.

Follow the screenshots. . .

my menu is identical to yours, only it ends with 'recipient phone number'.. there is no 'message option' in the menu.
i also reopened advanced config and verified that 'sms delivery notification' was enabled.. and indeed it was. is that all you did to enable it on your phone, or did you use a different method?
thanks again for the help!

Maybe the Sprint stock rom doesn't support this feature. No idea.

hmm any idea how i could find that out?

Maybe try this?

Message Notification - "Flash Light For: x Minutes" is disabled???

this option is disabled/grey/not clickable for textmsgs, emails and missed call... it was available in 6.1! what happened? any chance to enable it again?
Another question about text messages.
On my tilt when the text message bubble came up there was a reply button also. Is there a way to get this option on the touch pro2.

Disabling HTC Messaging Problem

I was wondering if any of the cooks know of a workaround for this;
I will automatically always will disable HTC messaging as I find my phone becomes unusable after sending about 5 - 10 texts to a contact (when I click on the text tab where it says 'tap to type' my phone will just hang).
The problem I've found whne disabling HTC messaging I can not use 'texting' as the main shortcut in the faviourites tab. Also even if I click on the contact name, then select 'send message' nothing happens, I also have to go into the messing tab and send from there.
I know it sounds a little trivial but I like being able to send texts in one click right than several!
Sorry if I'm not explaining this well.
EDIT: Sorry, forgot I was in the ROMS section of the forum.

Im wondering the same thing...?

Text messaging problem of a different kind...

Okay, I searched and searched but could not find a solution to this issue. A very minor one, but a quite annoying one, at least to me.
I know a lot of people have been having problems with phantom text message notifications, but I actually want to be able to mark messages as "unread". In the Windows text message application, I select a message (or conversation thread), then when I go to "menu" > "mark as unread", that option isn't highlighted and I'm unable to select it. I'm also unable to select the flagging options in the "follow-up" submenu, though those are less important to me than the "mark as unread" option.
PLEASE help! I'm a heavy text messenger (part of the reason I got this phone), and I really need that feature.
Is there a registry hack or cab or something for this? Where would I look?
I am running a stock T-Mobile ROM.
Thanks in advance for your help.

sms notification

Im running the sprint update to 6.5 and i am wondering what happened to the popup of the sms. I seem to remeber getting to see the message briefly on the bottom and being able to choose to reply or dismiss. All i get now is the taskbar notification which to me is pretty useless. Any ideas?
Thanks

go to start->settings->sounds and notifications
then go to the notifications section. from the drop down box for "event" select "New text message" and then under that make sure the "Display message on screen" option is checked. That should solve your problem.
Thanks. Wow that was easy, I should have known that.
no problem glad to help!

anyone?
same problem here i am a contractor and get most jobs via txt need help asap where are our senior members
Hmm... I'm not sure. I've not encountered this before. Which ROM and lockscreens are you using?
HTC Tilt2 (AT&T) Official ROM Update newest from htc site
To display the preview you have to do two things:
1. Wake Up on new SMS
Use a registry editor and change "HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIN\RIL" "DisableSMSWakeUpEvent" from "1" to "0"
2. Go to Start Menu > Settings > Personal > Sounds and then go over to the Notifications tab. Chose "Messaging: New text message" from the drop down menu. Then check the boxes that say "Play sound" and "Display message on Screen."
That should do it.
thanks soft reseting now
no go on the fix the screen lights up but no notifacation until the phone is unlocked
If you're using the stock or HTC lockscreen, then that's how it's supposed to be. If you want the message to pop up on the display à la iOS, then try a different lock screen like S2U2. There is a setting in there to make the message display on the lockscreen and either view (reply) or dismiss it.
still didnt do the trick phone has to be unlocked to get mms sms notify
about to give up and hard reset out the window

Right, that's how the stock lock screens are designed. That's why I suggested to install S2U2. It does what you're asking for.
i have had this phone for over a year it always notified me when a new sms came through whenn the phone was looked did i mention it notifies me off email but not sms
Hey,
Ye those things dont work.
I did a hard reset, and now it works propperly again, and my phone is way faster.
To bad this was my sollution.

Well, if nlueray112 got it working after a hard reset, then my guess is that something you've installed or tweaked has disabled or broken the feature. If you aren't comfortable doing a hard reset, then simply try S2U2 as I suggested. It does what you are looking for within the app, without calling WM for a pass off.
