Hello, hopefully someone can help with this problem. I have a Tilt, stock rom, nothing cooked. I have the HTC home, advanced config, and kaisertweak programs. I've searched for hours but I can't find a fix. My Tilt makes no noise or vibration for an incoming text message. The pop up doesn't come up either. The only thing it does is light up the screen and the icon changes on the home screen. All settings are set to work, start>settings>Sounds...., and advanced config sms delivery notification>enabled. Again, I have searched for a couple of hours and can't find a solution. I tried several cabs, wm6 sms fix (or something like that) and also the reg fix threadingdisabled and nothing works. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks
What are you running in terms of ROM and radio? Could be a radio problem.
Everything is stock. I haven't changed any ROM or radios.
I've got the same problem as you. It's only ever with incoming texts, everything else works fine. Many a time I've thought that I'd figured out the source of the problem but it just keeps coming back.
i've also discovered today that with mms messages the alert works just fine, it's only sms causing a problem. i'm going to keep trying, if all else fails there is always a hard reset.
Looks like a hard reset has fixed it.
Sounds like you had the same problem as me, which is the SMSAvailable key in the registry was set to 0.. No idea why this should be if you havent done anything to your phone. If it happens again load up a reg editor and search for that key and make sure its set to 1
I recently had this problem and my key is set to 1. After like 5 or 6 messages the sound will just stop working for SMS. I'm on CUSTEL 2.1 and never had any issues. This just popped up the other day.
I have no software that manages ringtones or anything like that.

Yes I have gone to Settings->Sounds & Notifications-> Notifications tab-> Messaging: New text message. After setting that to vibrate I have soft reset many times to no avail. Is there any kind of reg edit for this? I have searched for days on this topic and noone seems to have this problem. Is there any hope?
I just did a search and it appears there are many threads similar to this one. Try a search and see if any of the other threads have your answer.
Do you mind sharing a link? Because I'm having no luck.
i've not personally searched properly, but i'm guessing that Grizzley might recomend looking here
If you're problem isn't covered by a few google searches within XDA Devs, add a few more bits on info (rom, installed cabs, did it ever, when did it stop, etc etc etc)
If it did, and now doesn't, try soft resets - if no good try removing installed cabs (and change tone, why not! just use a default one for now)
If you still cant fix it, try a hard reset (see wiki for how) and remember to backup first. if you still dont get a vibrate.... maybe you have a hardware fault... does it vibrate on phone calls? have you installed a custom rom (ffs check the entire applicable thread if you have) if so, try a different one... or a stock one.
Searching is a good start - and saying you have is better still. But there really isn't enough info to help yet (yes, silly sh*t can mess it up, if my sd card gets removed & replaced my phone decides that my txts are now silent - with no ring or vibrate - even tho the audio file is on the device.... go figure!)
Ok I tried everything....even installed new apps to help with it....nothing. And yes it does vibrate on phone calls. So I decided to hard reset. NOTHING. Just calls. Gah, it worked for a little while when my phone was brand new, and I havent even flashed a new rom. ?????

Start -> Settings -> Sounds & Notifications -> Sounds Tab -> Make sure the programs check box is checked and then check the notifications check box as well
I had the same problem too, until I looked through everything.
Hope this helps.
Do you have any programs such as phonealarm or spb phone suite installed? It could be as simple as changing the settings in one of them to vibrate for sms.

My Tilt has the same problem with emails. It will vibrate when getting a call, but not when receiving emails. I checked all the Notifications settings and made sure that Vibrate is checked but to no avail. Not having it vibrate for emails is a major bummer for me.
I really love the phone except i`ve got the same problem as i did with the Diamond 1. When I receive a message the sound doesn`t go and it doesn`t vibrate but the green LED does flash. The second I turn on the screen using the standby-key it vibrates AND I can hear the ringtone. It drives me crazy. I didn`t have this problem the first couple of days I had the phone. I haven`t installed anything on the phone yet. Are there more people that have this problem?
Maybe it's a problem with other software? Does this happen directly after a hard reset? Mine plays a sound upon receiving a message...
have the same problem. but do not know if this started when i changed the melody for the message to one that is on the memory card.
have not tried hard reset yet to see f it helps
Do not store ringtones on the memory card, when the phone goes into standby it turns off the SD card interface to save power. The same goes for any programs that you want to keep running in the background when the phone goes into standby.
i face the same problem.... likely is the ROM problem..
not only that bluetooth also have some problem...
Are you using any call blocking / filtering software? Just a thought as I had the same issue after installing Magicall.
The device is as clean as a whistle
I haven`t installed any 3rd party software of any kind. I believe it is a flaw in the software. Perhaps this will be fixed a the next rom-update.
I also have this problem now. Yesterday I got an important SMS, but did know about it until 30 min later when I clicked the standby-key. The wierd thing is that this does not happen all the time. Usually I get notified within a few minutes of a new message. I do not have my sound files on the storage card. Any ideas how to solve this?
I get this problem too, and its rather annoying.. you could try setting the phone to wake on SMS, however, depending on your lock settings, it will probably wake up unlocked even if it was locked. I like my phone to be locked at all times unless I unlock manually or I get a call ONLY.
The reg key is
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\DisableSMSWakeUpEvent=0

Edit: if you go into Sound -> Notifications -> Messenging: New Text Message and ensure "Display Message On Screen" is unticked, it stays locked when a msg is received
i have this problem but with a hardreset solve my problem
Im having the same problem, ive got all the alert tones saved in the phone memory and have tried a hard reset too.
The reset improved things but still getting some messages being received without the alert sound being played, im assuming its a fault as several people are having the same trouble.
I got exactly the same
It seems that the problem only occures when you're not in the home screen. When i'm in the front (home) screen the sound works fine. But if i'm in the contact look (personalized look) its silent.
Can someone confirm this?
The same problem also with vibration....
It must be a softwareflaw, i can`t wait till HTC gives the first rom update...
Does somebody know how long it took before the first rom for the diamond 1 came available after its release?
I've only used Radio 3.44.25.27 from the new HTC Asia ROM for a day so I can't be sure, but the random problem of no audio/vibration alert that I used to face with Radio 3.43.25.19 seems to have gone away.
Having the same problem except mine plays the tone but doesnt vibrate!!!
Any news about this topic?
I had this problem also until I enabled SMS wakeup as per craiglay's post
These things should be fixed by HTC if u ask me. Workaround is great but I;ll wait till a hotfix is released
hello xda, ive posted a previous msg about this issue b4, along with others who have the same problem. ive done searches on here and have found that the issues have to do with some version of OPERA. my issue on the other hand is i dont use opera i use SKYFIRE. Does Skyfire use some sort of OPERA? ok now to my issue, (back when i first got my tilt, i had att oem rom 6.1) i now have duttys 6.1. after about a week after i first got the phone, ive been having problems with the phone notifying me of a new msg after about 5-6 sms. ive also noticed that when it fails to notify me, the alarm fails to sound as well. only after a soft reset does it fix its self, until another 5-6 msgs. ive also done the enable/disable threaded msg cab and it doesnt work, both cabs try to disable it. the programs that are installed are. A_C S2U2, bejeweled 2, boz quick menu, s2u2c, phm reg edit, skyfire browser, spb backup, and tilt keyboard fix for cooked roms. <-THESE ARE ONES IVE ADDED, if you need to know all thats one there that was cooked in, please pm me. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME. im gettin tired of this issue. att no longer carrys the phone for a insurance claim and im not sending it to HTC and being without a phone. im starting to think its more of a hardware issue than a software issue, if flashing it doesnt solve the problem. Thanx in advanced and sorry for such a long post. also b4 anyone says anything, everything is still checked to sound and vibrate under notifications and sounds.
John
One option you could try is to disable then re-enable the sounds.
Are you sure theat the phone is not temporarily muting the sounds. You could try manually switching the sound off on the volume icon next to the top right X and then re-enabling it.
Have you tried the hard reset?
That will determin if it's hardware or not.
to gilligan8
yes i have done the hard reset several times and it also does it with every rom i flash to the phone
to Elwyn M3100
thanks for the fast reply. no i havent switched the phone volumn to off and then back on. next time it messes up i will do that be i soft reset. if it is muting its self what could this mean the issue is?
But it doesn't do it till you flash it with a rom?
not a flashed rom issue
I have had this problem from about a week after getting my phone. I had this issue with the att oem 6.1 rom after I noticed the problem I contactecd att for a replacement, only to find that they have disscontinued it. id had to trade in the phone for something diff, cuz I love everything about this phone except my sms issuse. trust me I've searched and searched hard about how to fix this and have had quite a few good solutions, but nothin seems to work. I believe this is a hardware issue and not software. I just hope someone has the same issue that I do and nows how to fix it. thank you all for ur help
Being a computer guy this really doesn't sound like hardware... why would a hardware failure be so consistent? 5-6 times then soft start brings it back.
i do believe it is hardware related because i still have the problem even when i reflash to a new diff rom. after i receive anywhere from 5 to 6 msgs it then fails to sound on the following msg. the only way i can get it to resound is to perform a soft reset.
I had exactly the same problem and realised it was just the radio needed changing.
what radio are u running? i have 1.65.14.06 i also had this same issue with the stock att rom and radio
I hope someone can help me with this before I go stark, raving mad.
I tried to search for this problem but it's hard to know just what to search for. I don't think this is Raphael specific but was unable to find a general software forum.
When an alarm or reminder goes off on my Fuze, I don't (usually) get the normal popup dialog. To get it, I need to tap on two tiny icons, which is a major pain. I've been fighting this for months. I've tried a hard reset followed by installing my software a programs one at a time with an alarm test after each install. I've tried restoring several old backups. I've still been unsuccessful in tracking it down.
After a hard reset, it works like it's supposed to, but as I continue to install software and use the device, it eventually stops working.
Can anyone give me a hint as to where I might be able to begin looking?
Thank you in advance!
Not a single reply. :-( Am I really the only person who has experienced this?
I've been fighting with this problem for literally months. I just recently went through several hard resets and restores, trying to find some specific application or condition that causes the problem. It started happening again a couple of days ago, and I'm absolutely sure that this time I had not installed any new applications. The only change from the time that reminders were working properly to the time that they stopped working was that I had downloaded some applications data (email, etc.).
If anybody has any ideas at all, I will be forever indebted.
Thanks,
Keith
I have the same problem, I think. I will go into my settings and tell it to give me pop ups for new SMS, MMS, notifications/reminders, and then they stop happening and I go back into settings and have to recheck the boxes. I'm not sure what's causing them to quit though. I just flashed a cooked ROM to my phone, but I don't like it so I'm trying to find something new. The problem was on the factory ROM that came with my phone.
I have the same issue, im using the ROMeOS 6.5 ROM and i dont get notification too...
gonna try and fiddle around the advanced config app
I gave my Kaiser to a friend. Total n00b. Great guy, but he's the kind who can't program a VCR.
Anyway, when he receives an SMS, he gets the little pop-up notification, but it will not play sound or vibrate. Changing the settings in Sounds and Notifications has no results.
In the 2 years I used Kaisers, this never happened. And I used the ROM he's using the longest.
Anyone have any idea of how to fix this without a hard reset?

Have you at least tried a soft reset ?

Of course. I also tried the tweaks from Advanced Config, disabled sound for SMS notify and rebooted, re-enabled sound and rebooted. No result.
more details needed...which radio ROM? which SPL?
Fail to see how that suddenly matters when I've used this ROM close to a year with multiple hard resets and never encountering this problem before.
Something in the registry or else where is mucked-up.
Just going to hard reset.
