I just did a hard reset with my phone. After that, I messed something with the registry. I guess I did something wrong, because I don't get SMS notifications anymore, only the screen is waking up and the LED is flashing. I just want the little icon in the top of my screen and I want to see the preview of the message.
Is there any way to set this in the registry?
Settings -> Sounds & Notifications -> New text message ; check box "Preview message on screen"
I already checked that box
I solved it with a hard reset...

I remember before that when there is a next text message, one of the LED's blinked orange. Was that my imagination or can we turn that feature on?
I would like to look quickly at the phone and know if there is a new message without having to turn on the phone.
TIA
Yes
Settings -> (personal tab) Sounds and Notifications -> select in the list New Text -> check blink ... ...
thank you!
Is there a way to stop the screen from turning on when a Text Message arrives on the TP2? My old Wing did the same thing and I would end up pocket dialing someone because I got a text message but couldn't get to it right away and the screen was on. I searched but didn't find anything about it in here and walked through a few pages of stuff.
Thanks,
Lance
Use Advanced Config Tool
(However, by default, my TP2 doesn't wake on new SMS...)
Thanks, must be a Tmobile default. I'll check this out and get it changed.
EDIT: I downloaded it and installed it but it's complaining that the .NET version is outdated. I'll have to download that later.

is the sounds & notifications, you can choose something like "display message on screen" for Next Text Message
go to HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL
change DisableSMSWakeUpEvent to 1 (0 will wake up the device)
On my Rhodium, it does not wake up by default. I hear the notification, but my screen remains dark
Morning all, got my desire 2 days ago and still trying to get used to it after leaving my HD2. 1 thing i am annoyed at is the apparent inability to turn the notification bar off for sms, received/sent and STILL get a sound/vibrate.
I have found the settings in messages and handcert as i use that as my default sms now.
If i remove the tick from notification bar (in messages menu) and the sound 1 is ticked but then grays out. Nothing is shown or more importantly HEARD even though its ticked but grayed out. I have done the same for the handcert but it seems the notification settings in the messages program override the handcert ones.
Basically i want to have NO notifications on the notification bar but for it to make a sound and vibrate. Can it be done?

You could try duck tape?
Seriously its only fully visable if you pull it down, can't you just ignore it?
no really helpful that, i can ofc course ignore it. but being a non winMo i thought you could edit it so it just never showed up. i'd just prefer not to have to drag the thing down and click clear every time i send/receive a msg.
not asking much for such a customisable phone or so i thought.

If you read the message the notification disappears...
And you can change your whole ''desktop'' except the notification bar as far as I know.
Maybe a rom cooker can edit the android files but out of the box? No you can't change it. Sorry
And many people see the notification tab as a plus, and I do to I really have
a hard time imaging getting annoyed with it so sorry for my first response but it goes in the list of (for example)
1. I hate androids open source way of doing things, wich really is a virtue of android. 2. I hate htc sense (then don't buy it)
thanks for the reply.
I am just slightly annoyed that changing the settings in the original messages settings conflict and over ride the handcert sms ones. gonna try chomp and see if those settings can take priority over the default messages app.

You can set the settings for each program, if you want to turn off notifications, you can do that.
I have turned off notifications from the deafult messaging app and uses hancent's notifications.
If you dont want any og those apps notifications you have to turn them both off
Hello, everyone;
I've got a TP2 on WinMo 6.5 Pro, and would like to modify it a wee bit to do the following.
First, the signal lost, call dropped window that pops up. I'm an over the road truck driver, and this happens alot in the mountains. Is there any way to disable this silly message?
Second, the backlight always comes on whenever it looses/regains a signal. This is an extreme annoyance, bordering on dangerous, situation when driving at night and I am constantly distracted by the sudden glow from the screen. Can this be disabled?
Finally, emails. Is there a setting that will force the entire email to download, doing away with the tap-here-to-download-entire-message thing?
Much appreciated, everyone, and best wishes for a great day!
Fred
Not sure on 1 or 2, sorry. For 3:
-Launch the inbox (Microsoft version, not Sense). Scroll to Email tab and tap Inbox
-Menu --> Tools --> Options
-Tap on the account
-Tap on "Download Size Settings"
-Message download limit dropdown --> Entire Message
-Download Attachments dropdown --> All attachments
Edit: Not really a solution for the second issue, but if you turn on the "Automatically adjust backlight" feature it won't be quite so bright when it does turn on. Start --> Settings --> System --> Power. Check "Automatically adjust backlight".
Perfect! Issue 3 solved. Thanks, bud.
Anyone for the other two?
entire message
From the inbox of an email account - tap the soft button to the right of the keyboard one (menu?). tap on tools then options - tap on the account you wish to modify. You should see an option for Download Size Settings - select "entire message from the bottom drop down menu then click done.
If you are going through an Exchange Server then run the Activesync app on the phone. Click menu then options. Hightlight "email" then tap on settings. Change the download size limit to "entire message" and ok your way out.
I can't help with the other issues as I am new to this phone too.
Ok. Someone beat me to it.
No worries, mate, thanks for chiming in. You did illuminate another method, and thankfully you two have solved one annoying issue. The others will require entering the registery, I'm sure.
Thanks!

On the Email Issue, go to the inbox, tap and hold to bring up the context menu, select Tools / Options, and you can modify the download settings.
settings\sounds and notifications\ notifications tab... in there you can change what different 'events' do.
If there is a setting in your phone for what you want it will be in there.. if not It's likely a registry change you need to do. That I cant help you with as I wouldn't know what you need to change specifically.
Hi, I have a Gmail account setup on my GN, which is set to show a notification icon, but the notification sound is set to silent. Even so, when I get an email it sounds my ringtone (not even my default notification sound!).
The only way to stop this is to turn off new mail notifications completely, which means I don't even get an icon, so I'm constantly opening my gmail to see if I've received anything.
Does anyone else have this problem, or am I doing something wrong?
Hi, I have been trying to do the same thing but no luck. How did you turn off the gmail sound notifications in the first place? I looked everywhere.
By the way there must be a way we can control all the incoming notifications. I would like them to be displaying but silently. How is this achievable?
Hi, I thought this thread had been forgotten about!
I bodged mine in the end, thus:
1. Go to gmail and use the menu to go to 'settings',
2. Select the email address you want to configure,
3. Tick the email notifications checkbox,
4. Tap 'Ringtones & Vibrate',
5. Select silent for ringtone and vibrate only in silent mode.
(now the bodge)
6. Go to the phone settings screen and select 'Sound',
7. Set vibrate to never.
Told you it was a bodge! If you find a better way, please let me know
