No LED Notifications on Tilt - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Something has been driving me crazy about my Tilt. I loaded the latest AT&T ROM, bypassed the configuration step, but I just realized that I'm not getting a blinking LED when I have a new e-mail, text message, or voice message.
Any ideas? Did I miss something somewhere that will let me turn that on?

Start, settings, Sounds and Notifications, then switch to Notifications TAB, click down the list to new email (for example) and then enable "flash light for x minutes"

OK ... I thought that was for the SCREEN. Thanks ... I feel like an idiot now.

No "toast" notifications for emails!

The title says it all. I don't get any visual indication that I've gotten a new email other than the counter on the email tile going up. There is no pop-up/"toast" notification. The audio plays, the phone vibrates, the counter changes, and that's it. I'm syncing to an Exchange 2007 account. Anyone else experience this?

Same here when I had email notification sounds turned on.
I turned them off becase it kept going off when I was trying to sleep, and the dev device didn't have it on and I didn't miss it. The email tile is pretty high above the fold for me so anytime I hit start I'll be able to glance the number.

Email Notification Sound

okay this maybe a dumb question but its sure is annoying. Whenever i get an email the phone led light start to blink and the Email Notification Sound play like it should, but after 10 minutes it plays again and again. Like if i don't touch the phone it will ding every 10 minutes.
Its not an event reminder or alarm as email sounds are very different then anything else and only happens when i don't touch my phone. Like i got an email late last night and it kept dinging all night long until i unlocked the phone and cleared the notification.
Its super annoying, It just play the email notification sound and then let the led blink for 10 minutes but not play notification sound sound every 10 minutes.
Does anyone know how to stop this?

Open you HTC mail client (app drawer and select Mail), hit the menu button > More > Settings (then select your email account) > Notification settings
Now you can uncheck Notification sound
Will it still ding when i first receive the email, I want the sound to play the first time but not every 10 minutes.

Unfortunately, this will take out the sound altogether.
yeah thats what i thought, you guys don't find this weird about the phone?
not sure about the native HTC email program.. but here's how to achieved what you're after using GMAIL appz
/ open up Gmail
/ menu button
/ More-->>Settings-->> Account Settings-->> [email protected]
/ Scroll down to "Labels to notify"
/ select "inbox" then a pop up notification settings box will appear
/ There is an option at the bottom for "notify once"
That will do it
when a new email arrived... you'll get a notification... you get to choose to have SOUNDS/VIBRATE...etc
and subsequence mail arrival won't have any more sounds
Just curious what ROM you're running that's giving you this issue?

I sent an e-mail to my G-Mail account. When it came it, I left it alone to see what would happen. As described in another post, the alert sound occurred only one time. The LED flashed for a while but eventually stopped. I confirmed that the G-Mails allowed a once only notification.
I have had situations occur, but not always, where I will get alerts from both G-Mail and the native HTC e-mail app. However, it did not occur this time. So, I can't say for now what the native e-mail account will do.
I'm running stock ROM and have not had consistent email notifications. I have it set to sound every time I receive an email. But I may hear it only once for several emails and then once for every email received. I may also get a sound for emails that I don't seem to have received.
Just one of those things.
I'm running stock rom and using the native htc email app
Not to mention, it gets frustrating after habitually only reading the SMS from the lockscreen notification.
Any way to change the email notification sound?

Changing it is specific to the application you are using. Check the settings for the application in question. I'm using the Gmail app. The settings for each account has an area for changing the sound and frequency.
Was this issue solved?
I have the same problem with my HTC One S...

For a regular (non-gmail) account (which uses the stock Mail app), I could not find where to set it's specific notification sound... BUT, everything else has its own notification sound setting (GMail, WhatsApp, Text Messaging), so I just go into phone Settings, Sound, and pick a notification sound there (which will play when I get an email in my regular mail). All the other apps have their own sounds assigned, so I guess technically, my Mail has its own sound.
It is under personalize click the sound tab email is there

SNAP. That is so simple. I suck. LOL
Also under the mail app you need to go under settings notification and check the box that says play sounds too

[Q] I need a good Voicemail Notifier

Hi.....I need a good Voicemail Notifier
I don't know if this exisits, but I need a screen, or app, or wallpaper, or something that tells me when I have a voicemail. I don't like the basic notification that comes with the phone.
If there were something that had 4 big icons on the bottom or top of the screen, and next to each icon there would be a number, letter me know how many Texts I didn't read, or Calls that came in, or most importantly, how many voice mails I have. I miss so many calls because my phone will be out of range, and I wont even get a notification that a call came in, but 3 days later, when I'm checking voicemail, I see I got a call.
I'm don't mind pay for a good app/widget, I just need some help and suggestions. Anything with a BIG ICON indicator to let me know I have voice mails waiting.
I am using Android 2.3.7 - Miui 1.12.9
Thanks in advance!
Chaz
Missed It! has a built-in voicemail notification.

Google Messenger not turning display on ?

I started using Google Messenger recently, and one thing I noticed, is that when the phone is off to the side, and I get a new text message, the screen doesn't pop on, like it did with stock Messages and Textra.
Is there some Settings somewhere I need to enable that ?

From my experience, you need the Tasker app and set up a profile to turn the screen on. That is the only way I have found that works consistently. You will also need the Secure Settings app.
The Tasker app can seem overwhelming, but if you take your time and read some of the help files, it is actually pretty easy. I use the same app to turn my phone to vibrate when the phone links to my work wifi.

Android notification

Hi, every time I get a Facebook message from a messenger, I get an alert from the Android system that this is a "floating" application. The alert also appears on my screen and everything appears to me on the alerts screen. No matter how many times I cancel it, it's not saved and I do not know what to do!
