SMS Notification periodic

Hello,
Before my Diamond I had a Motorola v3 Razr. The Razr did give a sms notification every minute or so. When I received a sms, it gives notifications until i read the SMS. The Diamond only flashes the led light. Is it possible to let the Diamond vibrate every 3 minutes or so when there is an unread SMS?
Thnx in advance

Anybody an idear?

A bit rude and not even an answer for his question......
He is looking for REPEATED notifications......something SPBPhoneSuite can do for example. There may be other programs out there for the same purpose, don´t know of any freeware, though....

1. sorry you think so. don't get it ...what's rude? my 2 last recommendations?
2. the notification stays on the screen until you dismiss it, so why repeat? as a matter of fact i am not so sure it is not repeating...
i do know for sure that reminders do repeat so i can guess that all notifications are repeating.

i think he is looking for repeated sound notifications.

I'm very sorry when i offended some of you with my question, but the last post sums it all up. I'm looking for a repeating sound/vibration notification. I will try SPBPhoneSuite, but i'm not font on installing an whole " heavy" program for such small things. So when there is an alternative...please let me know

http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=368137Kukuriku - arrogance and rudeness are sometimes difficult to distinguish, but both are bad.

I did a freeware solution - DmsisAlert
Hi, i did a simple application that works on Windows Mobile 5 or superior (.Net CF 3.5 is a requirement).
To download go to DmsisAlert page and click on DmsisAlert link, unzip, tranfer the .cab file and install. If you like (or not), i will appreciate some feedback (you can do that on download page).
With Diamond is a good idea not to use the minimize functionality because after that there is no way to get interface back (allthough it still running on the background). I will work on a solution for that (i'm busy enjoying my new phone ).
hope that can help, helps me a lot

Hi dmoreira,
I like your thoughts about the program. I tryed it, but it gave an error. Nullexeception or something...

Thanks for trying... the program requirements are: Windows Mobile 5 or superior and .Net CF 3.5. I tested on WM5 and WM6.1 (Kaiser and Diamond) and run ok for me. Maybe you device are missing some requirement?!

Dude, try Best Reminder:
http://best-reminder.en.softonic.com/pocketpc
It ain't freeware, but its light and does the job perfectly every time.
I did use SPB phonesuite before, and I found it heavy with other features I don't need. Also, the damn thing didn't work at times!

try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405071&highlight=sms+reminder+vibrate
and free, always check the 'Development and Hacking' forum

@dmoreira: What requirement can that be? I have an stock diamond, with latest romupdate en .Net CF 3.5?
@MasK: That's i very nice program. I tested it, and it does the job except for the vibrating!
@badaas: That's another very nice program. I also tested this one and it works perfect. Except that it turns on the screen with every reminder... And you have to reboot the device to configurate it again...

Ok it works just fine! Very nice program! But if i can say 3 things about it:
- The minimize function still doesn't work to well
- You cannot delete the program via the "delete programs" way
- I really like the phone to not only notify me via sound, but also via vibration? Is this possible?
thnx!

before anything thanks for trying my work... about your comments:
"- The minimize function still doesn't work to well" : You're correct, but in others devices without TouchFlo3D the minimize works a lot better. With TouchFlo3D this feature practically doen'st work (i believe that's the same for other applications that have a minimize function that puts an Icon in the Today Screen).
"- You cannot delete the program via the "delete programs" way": A fix for that will be available very soon
"- I really like the phone to not only notify me via sound, but also via vibration? Is this possible?": It's possible but i dont like the result of doing this with the easiest way, so this feature will be available not so soon (but i will adivise here when so).
I will make some changes and post here a new version with some improvements.
Thanks again for trying.

I like testing this program, because it meets almost my exact criteria for such a program! Nice work!
- That minimize function is a pity, but understandable with the TF3D thing!
- Ok if you can fix that 'delete programs' issue, that would be very nice. I don't have a clue how i can properly delete it now!
- I will wait on a fix for the vibrating! That would be very nice!
Keep up the good work!
Thnx!

Hi Rik_X, after a lot of work (i posted the issue in different forums, but got no answer) trying finding a correct solution to uninstall and i ended downloading SkTools (i downloaded from here http://www.clickapps.com/download.htm?pvid=1324) and use a feature called Installed Programs and then Dmsis Alert was listed and i was able to uninstall it!! After that i install the version attached here and then the Dmsis Alert will appear again in the Windows Mobile Remove Program list. Sorry about the troubles that error could cause you.
Anyway i'm posting the last version the doesn't have this uninstall issue. I'm also working on the vibrate feature (still looking a direct interop way to do that).

SMS reports eraser

Hi
I just downloadet the programm "SMS reports eraser" from here: http://www.jgui.net/black/smsreportseraser/index.html
The problem is, that option "no sound" doesn't function on my diamond. I hate this sound on sms-delivery-reports ;-)
Can anybody help?

Use Schaps Advance Config instead
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070

I'm author of SMS reports eraser.
Could you export and send me the registry of HTC Diamond? I will fix.
For now, you can just manually delete two sound files SMSREPORT... wav from root Windows directory.

Hi
There are no souch soundfiles in windows root directory...
I think the problem is, that delivery-reports have the caracter of a normal sms. And because of that, the sound appears. Erasing the corresponding soundfile may not be the solution because then, normal sms will also play no sound.
I try to export the registry this evening. If anybody else could do this, I would be very happy
Regards

if you instralled from my original setup file: exe or cab (directly from my above link web page)
and if you still hear the special sound prior to the default notification, you use for notify about new sms...
that means, absolutely, you have two SMSREPORTERASER1.wav and SMSREPORTERASER2.wav files in Windows directory.
because this soud file is listen. and because my setup file installed/copied these files there.
probably you have locked the view of some files inside \windows folder.
don't afraid to delete these sound files, because it does not use as the default notification about new sms or something others. these files are used by my program only.

No my mistake, in Advanced Config you can only turn sms notifications/reports off.
Sorry

Doesn't work for me too.
I have an WM6.1 ROM.
Normal SMS sound is the same has delivery report. No changes.
Did two soft reset... And it's the same.
Cheers

Working Ok on my Wizard, sound and delivery report to read
Installed in the SD Card
ps: Since this is generic app, I think that should be in the Development area ?

no, I think these theme should be in this thread ;-)
I hope the developer finds a solution soon, because this sound of sms-delivery is really annoying...

But did you noticed any changes or is the same sound has before?
In my case, i stayed with the same sound has before... Nothing changed...:S
Cheers

The only sound that you may activate or not, is the Woman/Man annouce, the other sound is the common sound of an SMS arriving, that probably you may change in Sounds and Notifications
I've mentioned that this app should be moved to Development area, since it is aplicable to any other devices

No. The other sound should be "No sound" and it's not working... That is what i was saying.
Cheers

Yesterday i've uninstalled the aplication, but today when i wake up it said "Cannot run windows/smsreporteraser.exe"
When i installed it i configured to erase all reports at 6 a.m..
Now i've changed the clock to 5.59a.m but there was no message.
Hope it was only once...
Cheers
EDIT: Tried again with thw woman sound. Now it's playng the woman sound and then plays normal sms sound...:S
Cheers

I should clearer explain how this program works.
It tries to recognize, if the received SMS message is the delivery report.
If it is a report, it will play own sound (woman's, or man's, or nothing), and then allows system to process default Windows Mobile "new text message" notification. This one what you set in system's default Settings Notification dialog. There's no common between default system's notification and my program. My program just hold default notification (if this is a report message) for the time of own process, and then release it in normal way. Also, it set the timer to run deleting of all reports, in the specified moment in the future. If this moment will become, it will delete all reports in Inbox. This moment is calculated from the last received and recognized report message.
FOr example, you sent one SMS at 13:45 and then received report at 13:46. If you set the deleting time in my program to "2 hours" you can expect the report will disappear at 15:46.
But, if in the meantime, you sent some other SMS message, and got next delivery report, for example at 15:10, you should expect both reports will disappear at 17:10.
I think (and tested) this idea, these rules, are "logical", and very usuful for daily activities.
It's enough conveniently way to control, what your message was delivered, and what not.
IF you want to hear woman's or man's voice notification, it will play before the system's notification, but ONLY if: you set ring sound, you set "new text message" sound, and you set volume greater than zero. This prevents from hearing the sound when you use "silence" profile, vibrate only, or something like this. I've decided to include such rules, because different devices organize and use "profiles" in different ways, if any at all: most Smartphones use profiles, but not all touch-screen devices use. So my program checks the volume of notification sounds and ring sounds, to be sure you will not hear anything when you in the dark cinema. If you have better idea how to prevent the hearing in various types of mobile devices, please share.
So, if you use 6a.m. time for deleting, and even if you will uninstall this program, the timer will run up to this moment, and try to execute = delete reports. Only once.
There is no way to break the timer. What for?
Alternatively you can only use some special program, where you can review all your system's timers of notifications, and delete SMSREPORTSERASER manually.
... still awaiting for someone who send me HTC DIamond registry exported copy.
What I have to review inside, to fix sounds problem in this device.

I thought that we could have only your sound when receiving a delivery report.
When i receive a delivery report i ear both sounds (male/female) and normal sound, one after the other, and thought that was a bug.
Thanks anyway
Cheers

do you think, I should add option "not play the default sound notification" in case of delivery report received?

Yes! I think think that should be a good modification to the program.
Also think that mutch people whould apreciate.
Please do!
Cheers

That would be perfect!
I just tried out your app, and it works very well. Cleared out yet one more problem from the Diamond!
But that last option you mention - that would fit very well imo.

I would really appreciate too....
could somebody send the registry-file to the developer of this appl.? Unfortunately I am to dumb to do this :-(

ok. I added the option "don't play default notification".
if you use such option, the systme's popup notification or sounds will not in use when new delivery report will arrive.
please redownload the new setup file, re-install, and - don't forget - make a soft-reset.

Incoming SMS: no sound, no led blinking, no pop-up notification

Dear friends,
first of all, I'd like to wish you a merry xmas. I hope you're enjoying with your families, friends, lovers, and so on.
I have a quick question which I hope you can answer avoiding me to throw my Kaiser out of the window:
yesterday I upgraded to wm 6.1 but I've been experiencing this problem for two weeks now, even though I had wm 6.
When I receive a SMS I get no audio/pop-up/led notifications at all. No icon in the taskbar.
I checked the settings and everything is alright.
I think none of the installed apps inhibits the notification.
Any ideas mates?
Thanks a lot for your kind help.
Kindest regards,
Gian Paolo

Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications Tab. Under event, hit the drop down box and select, "Messaging: New text message". Now you will see your options for when you receive a new text message (i.e.- display on screen, play sound, vibrate, etc.).

Thanks lad, but I said the settings are ok. I checked the whole list.
And I also checked the registry and everything is alright.
I really dunno what could be...

Older builds of Opera seems to have this issue. Check..
Regards,
Carty..

Hi Carty.
I use Opera Mini 4.2... I think it does not affect the registry or something.
However I'll try to remove it!
Thanks and happy xmas

SMS notifications
Hi,
I'd the same issue on my tytn II after editing the registry to disable the chat like SMS inbox.
Reverting the change in registry makes the notifications work again.
I hope this can help.
Best regards,
micari

!!! Finally !!!
Been looking everywhere for someone with this problem, thank you thank you thank you for the solution, uninstalled Opera and it doesn't reset the SMS notification settings anymore.
Happy new year by the way !

Interested in what solved this as Opera Mini doesn't write any reg entrys and resides in appdb, so was it Opera Mobile that was causing the issue?
Please when you have reolved an issue post the exacts to what solved it as it helps other users who may face the same issue.

Sounds like it was the well known bug of that Opera Mobile beta that was clearing the notifications.

i struggled with this problem for days.
when you turn off threading, you will hear no sound, vibrating or other notification.
i found a way to use the function and also show sms in the "old" not threaded style.
now my phone rings and vibrates on new text messages. hallelujah!
i edited my registry with "Schapp's registry editor"
first i changed the "SMSAvailable" value to "1":
["HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings]
name="SMSAvailable" value="1" datatype="integer"
i don't know why but it is required for notification sound and vibrating again
now i wanted to have my messages in the "old", not threaded style.
for this i created an new key "/OEM" with following value:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Setting s\OEM]
Name: SMSInboxThreadingDisabled
With: dword, 1
after editing my registry i did a soft-reset. not sure if necessary
yeah! now i have my text messages shown in "old style" and notification works fine.

New Text message - no sound

Hello all,
sorry for my bad english
Some how, my diamond doesnt makes alert sound when a new text message is recived. Every other event makes sounds perfectly.
I set it to make a sound and vibrate in the old winmo interface.
I found no option like this in diamond tweak or advanced config
(thos programs has only ringtone change option - and my diamond ring just fine. I used advanced config to set it to wake up when a new message arrives.
What can be the problem.

Same problem here, but with new MMS. SMS notification works normally.
MMS work with the new ROM.
But the MMS notification has no sound and no vibration, even if checked in the settings.

I just found out that the same problem happens when I get a new Email message - the device makes lights but no sound even though I set it to at the events area in windows mobile settings. When I press the play buttin there it playes the sound perfectly.
HELP PLEASE

Had the same problem, I managed to set an inbuilt ringtone. Maybe it is not as good as my own, but at least I can hear anything. Search for it.

actually, i ever had this problem before, it is:
in the events area in windows mobile settings. if you press the play button, it playes the sound perfectly, but when a message is received, there is no alert sound...
that's because i changed the sms mode from "chat mode" to the traditional one (i just don't know how to express this, but i think you can understand) and when i change this back to normal, the sound comes back again
hope this can be helpful

No SMS notification in standby mode.

Hi,
New to this forum - hello everyone.
I'm sure you know what I'm talking about and I'm sure it's been tackled before on the Diamond forum - but search isn't helping me out here.
Basically i'm reffering to the issue where I get no SMS tone when the phone turns off the screen (powersaving/standby) - only the ring of light flashes.
Is there a know solution? I've already edited the registry (disablewakeon something??), and sms notifcation on screen! No luck!
Any help would be appreciated.

have you tried Start->settings->Sounds&Notification->Notifications and then from drop down choose new SMS and set accordingly

i think you want to say that there is no notification on screen when the ph is in standby mode,but when u wake up ur ph or recieve a call then it shows the sms notification.....if thats ur problem then try downloading tweak pack available in the forum.....in that tweak pack there is an option to show notification whenever u recieve a sms,no matter if the ph is in stndby mode

Tried setting a ringtone to a waveform file (for example WAV, WMA or MP3)?
My TD refuses to work with MIDI so I just replaced them with WMAs.

i'm actually playing a midi (the nokia sms tune) but it works fine when not in standby .... did yours do that too? (i.e. work when not it standby and vice versa!?)

I've also tried the registry fix:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <-- set to "1" by default. Change value to "0"
This didn't really do much apart from truning the screen on - still no sms tone if the phone was on standby on recieving the sms.
If there's a specific know fix for this issue your help would be appreciated as would a link to it!.
Cheers!

i have a similar prob, i get no vibration if device is set to "vibrate" by recieving new sms. if i check "vibrate" in settings - sounds - notifications then it vibrates properly in vibration mode, but then it vibrates also in normal sound mode.. rom is stock 2.03 rom

Bump
Bumping,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <-- set to "1" by default. Change value to "0"
Worked like a charm for me!
Changed the value and restarted the device.
