O2 pushmail notification sound

Hi!
I just installed the O2 pushmail cab so i can receive pushed mail. So far so good...
But theres one annoying thing: I cant set up any notification sounds for a newly received email in settings > sounds and notifications. I assume that is because of the fact that this whole pushmail thing runs per this cab/prog in the background, ... right? If a new email is received, it only gives out a short beep, the windows sound "default" I guess... which is not nearly as notifying as I would like it to be...
Anyone knows something bout that?
I attached the cab, mybe s/o can have a look into it

Mail and Text problems.

I have handcent (which I prefer to the standard HTC text) but whenever I receive a text I get alerts for both the HTC text AND Handcent. So I have to open them both in order to clear the notification bar. I've been looking for ages to find a way of disabling the HTC text but can't find anything.
Also I have a virtually identical problem with emails. whenever I receive email to my Gmail account, I receive two notifications, one for Googlemail and one for Mail. Again, I have to open them both in order to clear the notification bar.
Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

you don't need to open the message, just scroll down (pull down) the notification bar and on the top right it should say "Clear" and that will get rid of any notifications you have got exept for music when its playing or any other program you've got running that has an icon on the notification bar..
hope this helps!

Switch off notifications in the "Messages" app (within app untick Menu->Settings->Received Notification")
Switch off notifications in one of "Gmail" or "Mail" (similarly can be done via settings in Gmail/Mail.)

Thanks for that, I have actually done so but I still have a problem when receiving texts. When a text comes in, I'm presented with the text displayed in the stock messaging box, I have to close that and open handcent to reply - which is quite annoying.
Any thoughts?

This is the answer because that's exactly what myself and many others have done. I can tell you that it works.
You must have unchecked the wrong options.

When you say the "stock messaging box", are you referring to the HTC widget? If so, you need to remove this. Also, have you ticked "Enable popup" in Handcent's notification settings?

Email toast notifcations?

I've tried searching in mail settings, and then in app settings but i couldn't find anything regarding notifications for emails (other than playing a sound). But when i'm in the browser, or another app...i dont get any toast notifications. Is this just an OS thing right now, or have a missed a setting somewhere?

[Q] Change notification Sound using Warm Z TwoOoiontTwo?

Hi Everyone,
I am using the latest nightly's warm-z-twopointtwo-incredible-03262011 and lately I have not been able to change the notification sound when I receive mail on my ActiveSync and POP accounts.
I have changed to sound in the Settings->Sounds->Notification sound options. It changes for my Gmail but not ActiveSync and POP. I also went into Mail->Settings-> Notification Settings and checked the Notification sound check box. I do not see an option to change the sound in the Mail settings like I do in Gmail settings.
Is this an issue that I am missing? I have been searching the forums but did not see anyone else having this issue. Am I missing a setting?
Thanks for the assistance!

[Q] Is there a prompt or script to get rid of the voicemail notification?

It's getting really annoying, every ROM I flash, it appears. I've tried few things to clear from switching to Google Voice, to sending myself a voicemail, and then reading it to get the notification away but nothing helps..any suggestions?
Are you deleting the voice mails? I've never had an issue with the voicemail icon sticking. Every time I get a voicemail i listen to it and either save it or delete it by pressing "7" on the dial pad. Another solution would be to change the voicemail notification icon to a transparent image.

Voice mail notification
Hi,
I have the same problem here. It seems to be linked to Gmail account, as it appears on two separate phones as soon as I set up Gmail account. I wil try to do some more investigation. I deleted ALL voicemails from my Google Voice and the notification is still there. Restart of the phone does not renove it. Any settings changes in the Google Voice seem not to affect the notification. Maybe Gmail settings?
Did anybody found a workaround? It is annoying as it takes one more line of the notifications and I get a lot of texts, e-mails and ebay notifications and I would like to see as many as possible just by sliding down thenotification bar.
Thanks
Running Galaxy S2 T-mobile with 4.0.4 stock.
try downloading VisualVoicemail on the market and open it up see if its giving you any new notifications in there if so delete from the app and should be good to go after that its what i use to make sure they dont hang on my bar
