Notification light question

[pconyers]

I have the Siemens SX-66 and it has on its top right corner a LED light that blinks certain colors to give information as to whether it is charging and if it is working and such. Anyway, when I am away from the phone and I return to it is the light is blinking red that means I missed a call so I turn the screen on and see what is up. It does not do that for a text message, though. After being away from the phone I have to turn the screen on to see if I missed a text message. What I want to know is there a way I can make it to where if I miss a text message while away that the red light wil blink then too and not just when I missed a phone call?

THANKS!!!

yes u can, go
"Start">"Settings">"Sounds & Notifications"
Select "Notifications" tab
On the "Event", select "Messaging: New text message"
then u can c "Flash light for", check it then select the desire amount of time to flash after u "missed" a text message.

I have the Siemens SX-66. I did what you suggested and went to Start">"Settings">"Sounds & Notifications. There was only a box that was already checked that said events (warnings, system events)

The other stuff are options I do not have. The stuff you told me, could it be for a different phone, or version of OS?

I just had to bump this. This person gave me what was probably the correct answer but for a different phone because these instructions do not fit my phone. Can ANYONE help me? PLEASE!!!

[pconyers]

Can't anyone help me here? The directions I was given was not correct for the model phone I have and I just HAVE to think it is feasable! PLEASE HELP! THANKS!!!!

Have you tried the software PhoneAlarm?

I do not have a clue as to what that is. What is that? Is it software you add-on or something? If so what does it do and where do you get it? All I really want to do is change what I think would be a simple setting.

Thanks!!

Although you only need a simple notification setting, the LEDs can be tempremental.

Phonealarm is custom software, which is pretty much indispensible for any Phone user. I highly recommend it. Tell Bruce I sent you :)

It will give custom notifications depending on the kind of event, eg sms, missed call etc.

This is not a huge deal and so I am not willing to spend money on it. I just want to change a setting or mess with the registry some how to make it where when a text message comes in while I was away from my phone that the notification light blinks red like it does when I miss a call in the same scenerio. It can't be this difficult and I have to think it is possible.

You have to click on the "Notifications" tab at the bottom of the screen to get to the notifications area, you are looking at the "Sounds" tab.

Now THAT is what I wanted. THANK YOU!!!!

The third line of the first reply to this post does specify the "notifications" tab, maybe you just missed it, but the answer was there.

have fun adjusting your notification settings hehe
if you want to use a wav file for a sound notification, place the wav file in your windows directory and it will allow you to select it. I have Hal from space odyssey tell me when "there is a message for you"
