BB Curve :: Emergency Alert System Test Messages Waking?
Nov 5, 2012
I got an emergency alert message this morning (2:30 AM Pacific time) which totaly sucks.Subject was: Channel: Monthly Test Alert Message From reading other forums , I know this must be a bug with the OS. I have been getting these same test message on and off over the past few weeks.Blackberry needs to issue a fix. I have to keep my phone on because I use my phone as a pager.I know RIMM is almost bankrupt but come on guys, you gotta get this fixed.

I have a Verizon Galaxy S5 for a few weeks now. When I set up the phone I set the notification for the Emergency Alert System to notify me for all but Amber alerts. Thought it was a great feature since I'm not home alot and always have my phone with me.
Since doing so there have been several National Weather Service extreme and severe weather alerts in my area which were broadcast on both TV and radio however I never reveived any alerts via my phone. I contacted Verizon who were basicly useless with giving me an explanation or solution, I spoke to three people and I got three different answers. One rep I spoke to said that it depends on what angency is sending out the alert and that verizon may not have been notified of any local alerts. So at this point I am a bit confused as to how the system is suppose to work? If both radio and TV media are sending out the alerts why am I not getting any via my phone? Isn't the point of this feature to get alerts through your phone should you not have access to a radio or TV?

just getting to grips with my new android phone ( dragging myself into the 21st century as my daughter informs me ) so using the functions is still new to me. However one thing I have found is that, unlike my old Samsung Monte, I can't assign individual test alert tones on a contact basis so that all have the same alert. Looking through forums it seems the way to go is to use a separate app that will do that and seems that there are three mainly recommended - chomp sms, handcent sms and Go SMS Pro. So I have two questions, firstly does anyone have recommendations as to which may be the better to go for of the three or have a better sugegstions. Secondly anything I need to do when installing an app on an android phone, probably a dumb quetion to some but I'd like to have use of my phone for more than a week before managing to blow it up

Under my message general options I have set, "Days to keep messages:" to Forever.Does that mean they stay where they are or do they get saved to another location on my device?Also, recently my Curve 8520 went caput so I was given a replacement handset.Not in my BB Desktop Software, I have backups for two handsets.I need to get access to texts and e-mails BEFORE I set the above setting to Forever which may mean thos texts / e-mails are in earlier backups on the old device.Q: Am i able to backup my new/current handset (also a curve 8520) with the very first backup from my previous curve 8520?If not, is there any way I can get into the backup file and interrogate the data within it to get texts from in there?

Every now and then, I will send a text message to a friend, and somehow, the message and the following conversation, seems to be copied to my wifes phone. An interesting scenario!! Also makes me wander who else might be aware of my sms conversations!I cant put my finger on when the issue first started, it does seem to have started fairly recenlty though. At first i thought i must have done something wrong...but now i am sure there is some sort of anomaly here. I have done an iphone reset (ie..hold power and home buttons down for 10 seconds). That did not seem to resolve. My friends is using an iphone 3GS (not sure of iOS version) and my wife and i are both on iphone 4 with 5.1.1. My wife's and my phone are managed by the same itunes account / pc (not sure if there is some sort of confusion between phs somehow?)

My droid X is still in version 4.5.605.MB810. When I try to do much of anything with the phone, the notification bar will disappear and the green light at the top starts blinking. After this happens, I cannot receive any test messages or phone calls. the only way that I can get the phone to work correctly again is to cut it off and reboot it. Yesterday it showed the update for the new software but wouldn't download it.

Instead of giving me an error message Itunes is now beginning the restore process only to stop with no error message or failure message, just a small portion of the progress bar filled.

So I'm running a 100% stock tmobile htc one, I get the system ui has stopped message every couple hours and every time I adjust my media volume. Even more annoying is the fact that my notification bar is completely missing, applications and wallpapers are even stretching to fit the whole screen as if the notification bar never existed. My device is completely unmodified, I've tried factory resets multiple times and found no success, and not surprisingly neither tmobile nor htc cs were any support whatsoever.

I just purchased a Droid Razr M and can not find out how to set the notification alert for messages and missed calls. I want to set the alert and have it remind me every two minutes of so that I have new messages and or missed calls. This is how my old phones used to work... I would get an audible alert every 2 minutes until I viewed the messge, etc.

My IPhone 5c stopped alerting me to text messages. I have gone into settings, went to sounds, scrolled down to messages & selected an alert tone. IPhone will only vibrate on texts, volume is turned up. It stopped ringing for phone calls too and will only vibrate.  It is super armored with an Otterbox and has not been dropped or broken.Â
I turned off vibrate. I have even went to Settings General and Reset the Phone totally.Â
Volume is turned up. Text and Ringtone for Calls was set in settings. It plays them fine when I choose them.Â
I have no more updates available for the phone   Update is current OS 7.1.2

I currently have a BlackBerry Curve and has been working fine for a while now, but over the last 2 hours i cant send or recieve txt messages! If i try and make a call i get ''Supplementary service error: General error''. I couldnt find much about this on Google except a hard battery pull while the phone was on, which i tried but still no luck. Anyone got any idea's for me to resolve this issue ? I'm also getting 'Phone not allowed MM#5' when i try an emergency call.

I updated my Xperia Ray a few hours ago, it's telling me I have two new text messages, but when I go into the message folder there is nothing new. It's like the message thread from that person has disappeared. Any one know how to fix this/uninstal the upgrade?

I upgraded my N8 to Anna. Could not do the 1/2, everything else worked fine. Finally got the 1/2 to work, ever since had nothing but problems. Whenever I start the phone I get 3 or 4 system error messages. After hitting ok, I can access most of my phone. I cannot access my contacts from the home screen. I can only go into the call screen, which does not allow me to add a new contact or edit. I have tried both the hard and soft reboots and tried to re-install but it has only gotten worse. I kinda need to access my contacts for work.
