Screen does not turn on when new email arrives

[tut00]

Hi all,

I can't seem to get the screen to turn on when a new email arrives, however it does for new text messages. I have tried all the settings, and can't seem to find anything.

Thanks in advance.

Same problem here... I'm also looking for a fix....

I believe this problem has been resolved with v2.3 ROM update. I've got the same problem and T-mobile UK have only release v2.0

The screen will never turn on with Direct Push enabled. This extensive coding was done to allow email to be received when the device was in power save mode.

Why? Prior to direct push, email sync was maintained by a special SMS message which did turn on the screen. Battery life suffered dramatically because of this due to the hundreds of time per day the device would "wake up".

Microsoft did, however, fix the vibrate issue. In AKU 2.2 and greater, vibrate still works if its selected even when the device is in power save mode.
