Hi,
I've just got an XDA mini S on O2. Despite the check box in the messages section being unchecked, the sound being entirely off or on vibrate and the setting in sounds and notifications being left off, I still get the really irritating SMS sent message and ring tone. I don't mind the pop up but I want the phone to actually be silent when I tell it to be. I've tried the Reg changes using Total Commander - both SMSNoSentMsg and SMSDisableNotification neither seem to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is driving me mad.
Thanks
Tom

I'm not sure what version of Windows Mobile you are using on your device, but there is a way to correct this in WM6. Download and install the program I have attached below and then configure it however you like.

It is called Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool. It will allow you change a number of settings including the Message Sent notification.

This should work for you. Good luck!

Dan.

Would that tool work in wm5?

To tell you the truth, I don't know. I have never tried it on WM5.

The only thing I could really tell you is to give it a try and if it didn't work then what do you have to lose? If it doesn't work then just un-install it.

I tried it and it didn't work.
Thoroughly annoying.

Hmmm... I don't know any other way. Sorry man. Try flashing WM6 to your phone and then install it. This way I know it will work.

Nice one, I'm using WM6.

I'll try this one this week.

First download totalcmd (another file browser)

Create a blank wav file.. call it notify.wav (sometimes notify.wma)

Use totalcmd to replace the one in the windows directory with the one you created..

It works with some versions of wm5 though, so good luck..

I finally got it to work using the blank wav method above. Took a while as I forgot to change the read only bit. Bizarrely I can't delete the original so currently have 2 versions according to some explorers but only 1 according to others. Either way a test proved that I no longer get the tone.



HURRAH

Fantastic stuff guys, this has been annoying the hell out of me for ages. It is the notification of how much credit left on the PAYG card from O2. Does my head in!

What about notifications of the network?
There are some notifications (i.e. network messages) that still notify with a sound even when the device is on silent mode. Is there any workaround on this?

Great program! I was wrecking my brain trying to figure out how to disable the notification sound on my Htc Touch, none of the registry hacks worked for me.

Awesome app! I can't thank you enough for posting it--that noise was getting really irritating.
