i have the samsung galaxy s2. Just wondering where i find the notification for lost calls or incoming messages.i mean : when the phone goes into standby (batterisaving) and screen goes "black" , id like to know if it is possible to have a light blinking that notify my that i have had a missed call or got a text message. as it is now i have to press middle button to check.
My phone only makes noise when someone is calling, it doesn't play music out loud or ring when I get a text. It also has nothing to do with the mute switch on the side, I've flipped it on and off and nothing works.
trying to shut off the text message preview. Under Settings - General - their is no longer a "Notifications" tab.. it's gone ?
#2 - is their a way to shut off text messages.. My work send out text messages at all hours of the night, and I would like to disable all incoming texts at night?
My phone won't notify me of a text anymore. I haven't even had the phone for a week, and it's driving me insane. I've tried turning notifications on/off on Verizon Message+ (which is what I use for text), and I've tried changing the notification tone, too. For some reason, it still won't work. No notification light, no ring. I have to open my phone to see the number of missed texts next to the icon.
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 really love my new Verizon LG4 coming from a Samsung S3. It picks up signal clearly where I had complete drops on S3. However, one thing has really annoyed me and I need to find a way to live with this.
The ring sound and text notification sounds are either both ON or both OFF. I have to leave the ringer on for various reasons, but then I get the text notifications all night long. Various volume apps I downloaded did not separate out the sounds. This is a really bad idea to tie these together.
I have tried playing with Priority Interruptions, but can't quit seem to get the phone to ring and the texts to be silent.
my phone constantly is on vibrate. no incoming call ring tones or text message notifications. turned it on and off and no, it's not on the vibrate option
I run a business from my personal phone. I have people calling in a few times a day to order products, but I also text on it all day. I keep it on silent because I text alot and I don't want it to drain my battery and be annoying all day on ringer or vibrate. How could I set it to be silent for text messages, and ring for phone calls?
How do I customize the call notification to vibrate and the text message notification to sound at the same time for vibration mode? The vibration mode works fine for me (both call and message notifications vibrate only), but sound notification for text messages when I am in the middle of something. I am a new Android user and it seems that both settings cannot be done separately for the vibration mode.
I was hard resetting my iPhone 5 today (iOS 7.1.1).
Just as it was a millisecond from turning off, I received a text.
When it turned back on, I saw the text's body in the notification center, but there was no sender identification.
When I open the Messages app icon, there's no message, and the notification WON'T GO AWAY.Â
I've asked someone to text me again, there was a notification for 2 messages unread instead of one, but when I opened it and read their text, it went back to 1 and it still won't disappear. Furthermore, I've hard reset my iPhone once more, turned it off and back one, and tried syncing it with my computer, all futile attempts to solve my problem.Â
I guess it's worth mentioning that I cleared the message from my notification center.
in the text message conversation view,there's only a soft sound alert when new messages are received.even when the screen is off, you get no popup preview or a regular notification sound whatsoever.the only way to keep getting the regular notification & previews is to quit the app each time you send out a text.often times when you are in the middle of something and are unable to focus on the phone itself for the conversation, you forget to quit the message app, then you are totally not aware there have been messages coming in because it only gives you a soft sound alert that's totally unable to hear when you're outside walking, or other similar scenarios
It's been bugging me for years, it's specially annoying when the other person I chat with isn't aware of this issue and ocassionally misses out my messages.i mean,if apple insists that to avoid this problem, the users MUST remember to quit the conversation RIGHT AFTER EVERY SINGLE LINE, this is just absolutely unrealistic.I now do it every time because I'm aware of the issue, but not the other people I have conversations with.I've had too many situations where I had to wait for a long time to receive response only to find out that the other person wasn't aware the new text messages, because it was simply too soft to hear, and completely no other sort of things to notify you with.so i wonder if there really isn't a way to change the notification behavior, cuz apparently it's impossible that I make everybody I send text to change their habits just for this.
Everytime i get a text message there is no notifcation and even though i answer and open the message the red light still flashes. How do i get the notifcation back and the red light gone?
First the notification sound I get when I receive a text message is not the notification sound I selected in the sound settings. Not sure why that is?
Also, can you have a quieter text message volume but keeping the ringer high? I want to hear my phone at work, but don't need to be blasted with a text message notification ever time I recieve one.
Okay I am having problems changing the sound to notify you of new incoming text messages and I was hoping someone could help me.
Phone: Telus LG IQ OS: WM 6.5
-I have tried both mp3 and wav formats -Placed them in the root directory of my microSD card and the windows folder on my phone itself. -I don't have a visible application datasounds folder on my microSD card, which is the only other location I have read that I should put them in. (I have tried to show hidden files)
The problem is I cannot get any of the files to show up to select them in Message Settings > Notifications > New Text Message > Example.mp3
I have a blackberry curve 9300, and I love it excpet I'm having problems with text message notifiers. Usually, when you have a new text message, a yellow envelope pops up along with how many text messages you have. Well mine wont tell me how many text messages I have anymore, and it just randomly stopped working one day.
so I notice when I get a new blackberry bold 9650 I notice that I could receive a cool looking text message icon. However, I need to figure out how could I transfer all my data.The blackberry desk manager never did work on my old phone witch. After plugging in the new phone on my PC it asked if I wanted to transfer my data... So I did.I realized that when I was receiving text messages they were looking more like email icons. I tried to look up in my options and I can't find anything.
does anyone know how to change the sound for a text message notification?If I go to Settings, Sound and Display, Notification Ringtone, and change it, it will only change the sound for say email notifications? I cant change the sound of a text message notifcation?
When I get a text message from anyone, I get this notification chirp sound that is VERY loud. Once I was walking down the hall at work with it in my hand and the alarm went off. Someone jokingly said it sounded like a pacemaker alarm going off. Anyway, this notification usually startles me and since I share an office with 3 other people in a cubicle, I don't want this notification going off. I don't text a lot thankfully, but when I do this loud alarm really is annoying to both me and I'm sure to my co-workers.
Is there a way to change it to where I do not receive the notification when I get a text message without turning off the rest of the ringtones (i.e. putting it on vibrate)? Or is there somewhere on the phone itself I can change it? Or at least lower the volume of this notification? It doesn't seem to be in direct correlation with the volume of the phone because I've got the ring volume at 1 so I can keep down the volume, but still hear the ringtone when the phone is sitting on my desk. But this notification tone is REALLY loud. My choices shouldn't be "off" and "really loud".
I am having trouble figuring out how to disabel the text message notification screen that pops up when the Droid 3 is on the car dock. I find this screen to be unnecessary and annoying. It is particularly inconvenient while using navigation. I believe I have been through all the menus, but maybe I'm missing something.
Now that I've had this happen a couple of times and I know I wasn't hallucinating, I wanted to see if anyone else had noticed it.Sometimes, when I get a new text message, I pull down the notification bar, click the notification, and it takes me to a blank text thread, addressed to the person who sent me the message, just as if I was sending a brand new text in a brand new thread to that person. If I back out of it and go back to text messaging, their name is still showing in bold blue, indicating there is a new message, and I can click it and everything is there as expected.
