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

Gpx85 · Dec 25, 2008

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...

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,

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.
