Incoming SMS notification

Hi all.
How can I assigne a ringtone to incoming SMS or MMS? Right now my kaiser does nothing when I receive a SMS/MMS. The amber led blinks and that's it..
I tried PhoneAlarm, but it seems I can't get it to work. I assigne a ringtone to new SMS, but when I receive one, it does nothing..
Is there another app to manage profiles, besides phonealarm (and free)?
Thanks!!

Settings/Sounds and Notifications

guess i didn't serach enough
Thanks..
I'm a real noob reagarding both PPC and forums.. Guess I should serach a bit more.. Sorry for that..
Anyway I would still like to get a free profile manager..
Thanks

Incoming text message produces no sound anymore

Hi,
I'm not sure if anyone here can give me a hint on this, but here goes. I flashed my TyTN II with Dutty's 6.1 ROM a while back. I'm not sure if it's related, but for some reason my phone stopped playing the notification sound for when a text message is received.
In Settings > Sounds & Notifications, however, on the Notifications tab the "incoming text message" event is wired up to a sound just fine. Similarly, on the Sounds tab I have Events, Programs and Notifications all checkboxed.
Do you any other reason why this event wouldn't fire or why it doesn't play the notification sound?

Have you installed, or are you using Palm SMS?
There is a seperate option in Sound and notifications for Incoming Message (Palm SMS). You may need to change this to something else and then back again to get it to stick.

First of all, there is a thread about this rom, in which this problem is explained and solved at least 3 times, it's really not hard to search instead of making another thread that is just cluttering space for no useful reason.
If you disable the Microsoft Voice Command, your SMS sound will go back to a proper working order, you can do so In Start-->Settings--> MSVC

I think his question is legitimate. I have exactly the same problem and have also not found any solution in the more than 180 sides of the Dutty thread. And thanks for your hint with the Voice Commander. I tried it also but it still does not work.

Yeah, sorry. Didn't want to clutter up the forum with something that has already been covered. However, I don't even know if this is related to Dutty's ROM, but one seems to expect so. Searching for this problem has also proved a bit difficult. I just don't get any usable results.
I have not installed Palm SMS, unless it's installed on Dutty's ROM. However, I don't think so.
Furthermore, I don't believe I have Microsoft Voice Command, neither. As far as I can tell, it's commercial speech recognition software by Microsoft, and not standard with Windows Mobile 6.1.
I'll go through some of the many pages on the Dutty thread to see if I can find more information.

Have you installed any other software? Any registry tweakers like Kaiser Tweak etc? Dutty's ROM has AdvancedConfig installed by default. You may want to check the message settings in that.

Well, yes, I installed a ****load of applications. One could of course be the cause of all this, but I simply don't have any idea. AdvancedConfig has three messaging options:
- SMS sent notification: Disabled
- SMS delivery notification: Disabled
- SMS Unicode support: Enabled
Somehow SMS delivery notification doesn't sound like it's about incoming SMS messages, but it's strange that there is one for sent and delivery. So I'll enable that and see what happens.

Running low on ideas...but...
I take it all other sounds do work? If not try a new Radio.

Some time ago I had a similar problem. In settings/notification.... in the box for New text message there is a option to play to file. Even if I clicked the play, it didnt play the ringtone. Later after a hardreset I realized that it was someway connected to audio manager and playing wav files. The audio manager was not able to play the wav files. Maybe the file was not associated with the player. Just my two cents.

Alright, success! After setting SMS delivery notification to Enabled in AdvancedConfig, I tested it out. And there was both sound and vibration, too (which it didn't before neither). So I suppose that setting was the culprit, although I have no clue why it got set to Disabled. Also, I am amazed that apparently this really pertains to incoming text messages instead of messages I sent out.
Mikulec: I had some problems with ringtones before. Once it didn't want to play custom ones any more. Since I flashed my ROM, I never really figured out why it did that, but maybe it was because of some media player I had installed that took over some file associations. Who knows.

This setting is just for notifying u that the message u have sent was delivered. This shouldnt be tha cause.
But I am glad it works now.

This is annoying, then. It works now, but I'd like to know what fixed it. I did a few different things over the course of trying to fix my problem, of course, but nothing that I thought would be The Solution.
On top of this, I don't get a delivery notification for messages that I have sent after toggling that setting, so it appears to be not working correctly.
I suppose sometimes you just have to not ask questions and move on...

Thank you!
Thank you very much! After much time in searching, I've also didn't realized that is because of Advanced config. Now it's really works!

As above, delivery notifications would normally be a delivery receipt for messages that you've sent - when enabled you'll get a message from 'System Administrator' telling you when the SMS you sent was delivered to the receipient.
If enabling that has solved your problems, great. One thing to note though if you are getting receipts is that sometimes networks charge for these delivery receipts, and these generally won't be included in any allowances for SMS/calls etc. with your subscription.
In the UK I know Orange charge 0.9p for each one they send to you. ...My orange bill was £623 last month and one of their suggestions to reduce it was to turn delivery reports off. When I'd stopped laughing we agreed that wasn't really going to contribute too much!

Rob.

Hi,
I had the same problem with my Touch HD (Blackstone). I change cooked ROMs a lot, and sometimes I don't have sounds in notification area (new SMS, new e-mail, etc...).
I use the Free Mp3 Wma Converter to convert all mp3's and wav's to wma format. After that, just transfer wma files to the /Windows directory on Your device, pick sounds in "Sounds & Notifications" and it should work It's just that easy

helllllp plzzzz
oh , and sorry for my poor english help plz (

Try...
Apply the tweak.. and then restart your phone. (not hard reset just switch it off and then on again).
Might work, might not work.. but while you are waiting for others to come up with a solution, why not give the tweak another shot.
All the best

thanks for replay.
which tweak u mean?

Wake Up on New SMS --> HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <-- set to "1" by default. Change value to "0"

Also when you disable threaded sms; notification breaks!
See thread: WM 6.1 how to disable threaded sms without disabling sms notifications?

Don't use the tweak put up in the thread you quoted. Set that value to the default value.
There is another way to disable threaded messages
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Setting s\OEM
Create Registry entry
SMSInboxThreadingDisabled
Set Value to 1
Restart the phone
This way.. the Wake on Sms Tweak does it's job
implying..
unthreaded texts.. and notification on Sms

i make the changes in registry and the threaded mode is disabled but still have the problem.
i wonder why my device has a such a problem ?!!

no one have new idea?

that's not fair heeeellppp plzzzz (

thanks for replay but i try that before.
i don't know what should i do with this silly problem

i had the same problem but it was becouse of registry edit. I wanted to turn off threaded sms (chat) in registry and thats why i had no sound for new message. Maybe its also a solution for you.
P.S
mayby one of programs u have installed disabled chat function. check in registry this: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/software/microsoft/inbox/
mark SETTINGS (but dont enter) and there you have value SMSAvailable. must be set 1. then restart
Good luck

Messages go with SYSTEM VOLUME, and no with RING VOLUME

I have the same problem before
Firstly, you can try the following registry to disable the threaded sms:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Setting s\OEM\SMSInboxThreadingDisabled
DWORD value set to 1
Then, set the following registry and restart your phone, now the sms alert/sound/vibrate are also existed.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Setting s]
"SMSAvailable"=dword:1

I fixed the SMS alert problem on my Touch Diamond
Hi,
I managed to fix it on my touch diamond
I installed SPB phone suite from here
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/phonesuite/ and did the soft reset when requested.
The problem disappeared after that.
I then un-installed it and the sms alert still works properly.

No notification sound of "new MMS" even though one has been set

Hi guys, I am using Dutty's 4 ROM and I noticed that whenever a new MMS comes in for my Diamond, there will only be a short beep once and thats all. Even thought I have set the ringtone for new MMS and I can hear it when I press the play button, when a real new MMS comes in, only a beep is heard.
Anybody have any solution? Thanks.

Check settings...
First, just check your settings. For MMS there are two notification tones... 'New MMS received' and 'New MMS downloaded'. Make sure you've set tones for both. If this isn't the issue, post in Dutty's ROM forum and ask the man himself - you may not be the only one with this issue

I had the same problem. Set both the received and downloaded notification to the same tone as suggested and it works ;-)
Thanks!

No SMS Ring Tone - Tried everything and still does not work

Hi,
after searching for weeks around ways to make the ring tone for text messages work, I found that even though there exist several proposals to solve the problem, many htc diamond users still apparently don't succeed in getting it done, myself included.
The problem is that if a message arrives, the phone returns to normal mode if on standby, the lights flash, but NO TONE is played. No matter if in standby mode or not.
So far I tried the following which at least made the phone wake up and the light flashes. However, no sound is played and moreover the message is not displayed. (I am not using Manila but SPB Mobile Shell (tried 2.15 and 3.0 and without, but does not change).
things tried:
1) I did several Hard Resets including using a totalling of five different ROMs (including one with 6.5)
2) Trying all possible settings in the alerts and Notifications menus, Vibrate, Program Sounds, built-in sounds,...
3) edit the registry to make the phone wake up on Message
4) Install the HTC Hotfix for the greyed out REPEAT option
The strange thing is, once I flash the phone new, it works for about one day, but then stops (however, I used to install some programs during that period, so far could not 8for the lack of time) find out what was the particular reason.
but after about 10 complete new Flashs I am really desperate that one of the most simple features of cellphones, an text message beep, seems not possible with the HTC Touch Diamond.
In any case, I know there are a lot of discussions around this issues but I tried all of them and it seems that they don't work for many others as well, while it does for some.
It would be great to have a final thread getting this issue fixed ultimately!
Thanks for your experiences / ideas !
cheers,
Playagiron

Solved
So after long trials and errors, I found one more reason why one cannot hear text message sounds:
I had deleted the Activesync Registry Key in order to get rid ot the Outlook Email Account as suggested in several threads. Apparently this made the sms sound not work anymore, for whatever reason.
Just restored the backup of the Active Sync key to HKLM Software Microsoft Inbox Svc and voilá!

well i think this is one of the most crucial and important problem with HTC phones...i had the same problem with my HTC Touch before...hopefully this should not start with my new diamond.
solution of that i found was something similar what u stated. i tried deleting my smses..i had more than 3000 sms in inbox and in outbox around 2500...so i deleted say around 1000 sms ..which might played some trick and then sms sound started...unfortunately my htc touch then got stolen ...i wish i would have not fixed that problem for thief to go with same misery of not getting incoming sms sound

it didn't work for me....grrrr

any new solutions?

Same problem here.
I was hearing sounds in incoming emails a few days ago but suddenly no sound is played when i receive an email.
I didn´t delete any registry value, so i don´t know if your solution can help me, but... do you remember the registry key to review, please?
Thanks!
Still looking for a solution anyway
EDIT: I have found a pseudo-solution: if i check the box "Display message on screen" (Sounds & Notifications), new email notifications sounds normally.
I don´t like seeying WM notifications pop´ups, but... it´s the only way new email are notified with sound.
