Text message notifications - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

When I get a text message while the phone is in sleep mode it does not wake up to notify me. The circle button lights up and flashes to indicate some activity but it will only play the sound and pop up the notification when i manualy exit sleep mode by pressing the power button..

fixed in the new 1.37 rom

Ok cool..
m in canada using Rogers.. so my question is do I have to match up the Radio version numbers or just grab 1.37 *** WWE for english and im good?

Just an update..
When I have someone send a text message to me that is on the same provider it works just fine, i get the sound notification. but someone on a different network I get nothing.

Vibrate for text message?

I'm maybe just being stupid - but I can't get my diamond to vibrate when I get a text. I think I've set it correct, but its not working.
Using TouchFlo - I go into "Settings", then "Sound".
I press "Advanced", and then choose the "Notifications" tab.
From the "Event" drop down list I select "Messaging: new Text Message"
Then I tick the "Vibrate" box.
Is there something else I need to do?!
BTW - my ROM version is 1.37 if thats relevant
If you mean that your phone should 'wake up' and vibrate when you receive an SMS, then have a look at the 3rd point from the link below:

If it won't vibrate at all, and only will make a sound I don't know the answer. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately it won't vibrate at all on receiving an SMS.
Even if the phone is awake and I get a message it does nothing apart from a little green 1 appears on the messaging icon - and the directional pad light flashes.
The other thing I've noticed when testing this is that the phone takes about 5 seconds to actually start 'ringing' when getting a call!

Yep ive noticed that on mine as well...im running 1.37 rom uk spec diamond and it takes a good few seconds before my phone will ring when i have an incoming call. Annoying but liveable i guess..also my phone wont vibrate either when receiving a text as well...just get the alert and notification.

Mmm, bummer... Just tested it with my phone. I previously used the 'wake on SMS' edit, and now selected 'vibrate' and unchecked the sound alert for Messaging: New text message. It worked like a charm.

Same here, even with my previous HTC Wizard. I guess it has to do with WM devices in general!?
Hmmm... now I've just realised that my phone doesnt chime or anything when I get a text - despite me having a tone set.
I tried a soft reset - but this did nothing. I dont really want to try a hard reset as I will lose all my proggies etc.
I've maybe give the tweak above a try!
I've tried the above tweak, but I'm still having no success.
I'm getting absolutely no alert at all when i get a text message. With the tweak, the phone comes out of standby and the screen displays the message - but it won't chime or vibrate at all.
Any ideas?
A phone that won't alert me of a text is no use as most of my communication is through texting!
Finally resorted to a hard reset - which solved the problem.
Spent the last few hours reinstalling everything!!
Now time to make a sprite backup whilst I have everything sorted!

How to stop the light from flashing when you've missed a notification?

How to stop the light from flashing when you've missed a notification?
For example, when the battery reached 10%, it gets a low battery notification. Normally, if you press Dismiss, the light on the navigation control button will not flash anymore. But if you don't press Dismiss, the light will keep on flashing. However, if you wait too long or if your device is locked, you may miss the notification and the light will keep on flashing. How do you turn this off manually after you've missed the notification? I still want the notification to be enabled for next time, I don't want it disabled permanently, I just want to know how to press "Dismiss" again so that the light will stop flashing for this time.
Thanks.
Someone please help, thanks.
my diamond had the same problem.
what's even worse, when the battery reached 10% and i pressed Dismiss, the light on the navigation control button keep on flashing about every 30 seconds until i had it rebooted.

What version of ROM are you using? I'm using the official 2.03 and as long as I pressed Dismiss, the light will not flash. The problem is, sometimes I will miss to press Dismiss. This also doesn't only apply for low battery, it's for any type of notifications, but some notifications such as missed call and SMS, I can still stop the flashing even if I missed to press Dismiss, I just have to open the missed call tab or read the SMS.
CE version 5.2.21109
rom version 2.03.109.1 CHS
radio 1.11.25.01
i'm using some kind of cooked rom from a chinese pda forum.
now i can see that this seems to be a bug from this non-official rom.
could someone be able to tell me how to solve this problem without
flashing my diamond ?

Strange sms notifications

Hi to all,
as you know, when new sms is received on Topaz and the screen is not active, green led starts blinking. That usually happens as well on my device, but sometimes there is no sound neither blinking when message is received.
But when I activate the device, the notification of new message appears. The problem is that the message is usually hour or even more older. Anyone has the same problem? Or is it just me?
The blinking light will stop after 5 min, by default. I changed mine to flash indefinitely.
1. Go to Settings - Sounds & Notifications - Notifications
2. Select Messaging: New text message
3. For the "Flash light for ..." option, change it to "No limit"
Message received sound notification
I have the same problem when it comes to playing the message received sound notification when my phone is locked. When I receive messages I can only see the blinking light notification then after I unlock the phone the sound plays. Its really annoying. Does anyone have a solution?
same here. But not always. I think it happens when the device is not locked and the screen is in stand-by
common issue...ROM issue!!! hopefully it will be fixed with the next ROM release
Yes I'm getting this to, it seems to be intermittent... And its annoying...
I picked it up yesterday off the table turned it on and Yep the SMS sound notified me and said it had a new sms and the green led started blinking, its like it goes into some sort of sleep mode and when you pick it up to turn it on, it then lets you know you have a message..... I hope there's fix for this soon..

Hi
I had this issue and fixed it.
I used Advanced Config and under the power settings changed 'Battery resuming from suspend timeout' changed this from 1 second to 10 seconds.
The problem is the device wakes up, often gets enough time to signal the LED to flash but the device suspends again too quickly for the sound to play.
Regards
Phil

The problem is that the device even does not start blinking. So it behaves like there is no new message until you press power off button and the screen becomes active. Not sure whether we are talking about the same problem

[Q] Anyone else unable to "end call"?

For some reason my "phone" app won't let me end a call now. It could be gingervolt related but I'm not sure, and I don't have enough posts yet to post to the dev forum.
I can hit the end button and it says call ended, but the icon in the notification bar still says connected and the call stays active. So far the only way I've found to fix it is reboot the phone, which is rather annoying.
Anyone have any ideas?

[Q] Vibrate when receiving SMS on ICS?

Maybe I'm just a complete idiot, but I can't seem to get my phone to vibrate when I recieve a SMS. I have been to Seetings -> Sound. My silent mode says vibrate and I have ticked Vibrate and ring. Below that in SYSTEM everything is unticked, but it shouldn't have any consequences.
My phone vibrates just fine when i receive a call. Any help please?

Exactly what I was looking for! Lol I felt like a complete noob.
Thanks buddy.
I have HTC One V and it looks like it is very lazy. It doesn't vibrates every time I receive a SMS, sometimes it vibrates 15 minutes later. Does anybody have an idea why?
Oh...thanks guys! Uf, I was almost sure that something went wrong with the ROM. Thanks a lot!
