Nokia :: 5230 - New Message Notification Stopped - How To Fix
May 12, 2010
I recently switched to T-Mobile from Verizon and got the Nokia 5230 aka Nokia Nuron. After the first week my phone stopped alerting me when i received text messages. First the alert tone stopped.than the pop new text message stopped and than the little envelope that appears in the right hand corner stopped.Basically I'd be going to my inbox every 5 mins to see if i had any new messages. I called Nokia support and after trying everything else, we ended up reseting the whole phone.That worked...for about 3 days.Than the problem came back.So i called again,tried everything again and nothing. They sent me a new phone and its been doing fine up until yesterday.
I have had my nokia 5230 for about a week now and everytime I would receive a message it would pop up on the home screen that I had received a message and it would tell the name and number. All of a sudden it stopped doing that and now only the menu button flashes when I recieve a message how can i change it back?
I have a the T-Mobile version of the 5230 (the Nuron). I assumed that the notification light would flash after someone left a voice mail. T-Mobile Customer Service claims the Nuron does not do this. Under the Settings-Phone-Notification Lights-Notification Light-Events Notified screen, there are 3 options that can be checked: Missed Call, New Message, New E-Mail. I had hoped "New Message" included voice messages as well as text messages, but I guess not.
This means that I would have to turn on the screen to check for voice mails if I stepped away from my phone. (Note: I do get a flashing notification light for missed calls and texts. However, the missed call flashes stop as soon as the "new voice mail" message appears on the screen.) I've tried a soft reset with no improvement.
For no reason I can tell my email notification bar on my home screen has disappeared.I am left with just the shadowed bar where the text for the email count used to be. When I select this bar it flashes red as if I've selected it and I also get a select vibrate but nothing opens.I have tried switching off the notification in my home screen settings, and the good old turining the phone off and on again.
I am facing 2 problems in 5230 1. not able to create new profile, when clicking the "create new" option it is showing the existing profiles only. 2. E-mail notification option not showing under settings > personal > homescreen this all happend after I have restore my phone to factory settings.
I have bought Nokia 5230 on 10-Jan-2010, but I am not able to send SMS from my phone, I check the settings of message center (Airtel) and it is fine, but still I am not able to send the SMS. I throws "Unable to send message to <<contact namd>>.
I own a 5230, I want to assign one of my own music songs from library to be the message alert tone. I can find no option to allow for this, only to assign to ringtone or to an individual contac.
I have just got a nokia 5230 but cannot seem to get the message alert sounds to work. The sound is turned up and the ring tones work fine. does anyone have a solution.
After installing Nokia messaging on my Nokia 5230 phone, I'm trying to setup a gmail account, After giving the username and password, It says contacting email-server but nothing happens.Its an endless wait.But somtimes it pops up a message saying that I have exceeded the maximum number of connections terminate existing connection.
I just got my phone yesterday and everything seems great apart from an annoying little problem! When I am on the home screen there is a flashing message icon in the top right hand screen and when i click on it it says sim memory full - i have copied all my contacts across onto the phone. Can someone help me with how to get rid of it?
I have nokia5230 i send message that stores in outbox. if i delete or resend also its not moving out from outbox. the symbol near battery indication displays as outbox image. How to remove the message from the outbox?
I TRIED updating my nokia 5230 by using OVI suite and during update my nokia 5230 suddenly turned off and updating stopped. I disconnected usb cable and tried to turn on the set but it wont turn on. I tried to recharge it and restart it but it also didnt work. Now its still off and I don`t know what to do anymore.
I have Nokia E66 for a year. Since today when I get a new text message, it doesn't show a yellow notification on the buttom of the home screen. I went to the settings and I turned it off and on again, still nothing happened. I turned the phone off and on several times, still nothing happened. Anyone can please help me with this
for some reason my Nokia N97 Mini doesnt tell me when I have a new message, nor vibrate. I always have to go to 'Messaging' to see the red star by Inbox to see if one is there. Before I never had this problem but now I do.Is there something I did or a button I accidentally pressed?
Is it right that there is no visual message notification except the menu button blinking? The display stays dark? And I just can be notified per ring tone or vibration? Is there any solution for this problem? Because I turn the ring tones off at work and with this stupid kind of "notification" I never see when getting an new message.Hope somebody can help me or there will be a software update soon.
Yesterday my N8 stopped vibrating when it recieved a text message , I enabled vibration alert in the profile and checked if it was a hardware problem by calling . The phone vibrates when it gets a call but it doesn't vibrate when a message comes ! I did not install advanced battery monitor also ! I reset my phone and re-installed the latest firmware also , but still the problem persists
The shortcut notification image at the bottom of the screen for my e71 has disappeared and each time I get a new message it doesn't show up anymore. I have to manually go to the messages at the top of the screen and then go to inbox to see the new message when before I could just click the little shortcut that popped up at the bottom of the home screen which would lead me straight to the new image. I've tried restoring the factory settings on my phone and it didn't set it back to the way it used to be. I'm lost on what to do in order to get it back.
I updated my NOKIA 5230 to the newer version of firmware (New software releases (version 50.x.00x) are now available for Nokia 5230, 5235 and 5238 *) after updating my phone with this great update my phone's bluetooth stopped functioning totally.I first checked the visibility of bluetooth of my phone to other devices; It was ok.I Switched off the phone and put it on many times But there was no difference.Then I did reset the phone by doing *#7370# ; there was the same problem.I got fed up and reinstalled the update. But the problem is same.I surfed on the net and found that many people are facing the same problem with this new update, so I thought that let me inform you about your BETA UPDATE version 50.x.00x
I had bought nokia 5230 recently. I have a problem in setting ring tone and message tone.When i trying to set ringing tone or message alert tone in the Profiles(General) it showing an error message as "Not enough memory to show all ringing tones. only tones in read only memory will be displayed". But my phone memory has 50.1 MB free space and My memory card has 1.2 GB memory space.
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 use E66 and E52 phones. When I receive a new message, notification light starts flashing on both phones. It is OK. But... I often use Nokia PC Suite for managing my messages. When I read all new messages on E66, notification light automatically changes its self from flashing mode to "breathing". It's fine. But it doesn't work on my E52. When I read all new messages, notification light is still flashing (no "breathing"!) on E52. I read manual and I know that it is necessary to use my phone directly to stop flashing. Why (if all messages has been read)? I think, it correct works on E66. What is the problem? I use latest version of firmware and Nokia PC Suite (not OVI Suite!). I contacted Nokia HelpDesk, but they told me something like "it is not a bug, it is a feature".
Previous phones I have had, have either beeped or flashed a light to let you know you have missed a message or call - great features!My new Nokia 6720 does nothing (that I can find). The breathing light seems to just breathe all the time in standby mode, which I find a little creepy... The little envelope that appears on the screen is hard to see in standby mode.Is there a notification like a flashing light or beep I can set up to have the phone let me know I missed a call / message? If so where do I find it?
When I receive a new SMS message, and read it. The unread message notification doesn't disappear. The only way I've found to get rid of them is to use Nokia Suite, and read them there. Otherwise the notification icon remains.
Right i have had my 5800 for around 3 months now and yesterday i came across a problem,i can recives texts fine but i get no notification, no tone, no vibrate not even the little message icon on the top of the screen,the blinking white light still flashes and i can go into my inbox and see them.
My Nokia maps navigation has stopped working for no obvious reason. It has been working fine since the Anna upgrade, but now it has just stopped. I can start the application OK, but all I get is the "waiting for GPS" message at the top of the screen. I have left it on for 30 mins+ but no change. The only thing I have done since last using it is install Shazam. However I have uninstalled this but it makes no difference.
Suddenly, my notification bar has stopped (vertical and horizontal), so, I cannot receive any notification.I did a dalvik cach, or even check in settings. But I couldn't see nothing that made it be stopped. I'm using XtraSmooth ROM.
After I updated to 2.3 the notification LED has stopped working.It just flashes white every so often, but doesn't flash green/blue for other notificaions (SMS/Email/FB) as it used to.It does still turn orange/green when on charge.
