I have new ringtones i can download, but i want to have them in the "messaging" tones as well. why are they not populating in both and why cant i set people up to have certain Message tones? it only lets me do ring tones.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAs of a couple of days ago, I haven't been receiving messaging notifications.I still recieve the message, they just don't show up on the live tile, the lock screen or make a sound.Also, whenever I recieve a call, I don't get their caller ID. It just shows a number even though I definitely have them on my contacts.I'm using a Lumia 920?
View 18 Replies View RelatedI added my Facebook account to the accounts on Lumia 920 so I can use the built-in Messaging app for Facebook chat. However, the app (I guess) posts idle status messages to my Facebook timeline in every 1-2 hours. An example message:"I've been away since 15:37."I have now 9 messages like this since yesterday.I went through all the settings but could not find how to stop this. I disabled the Microsoft application within Facebook but then you can't chat and won't get the updates.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI've recently bought a nokia 820 and am having trouble with the messaging app. In my settings-ringtones+sounds, I've got the ringer on, and the new text or IM set to a sound, the 'play a sound for' everything is checked. However when I receive an SMS neither the messaging live tile updates to reflect this, nor does any sound alert me. The phone is set to ring+vibrate, is there somewhere else I'm not checking?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a Nokia E71 just update to the firmware 410.21.010. I did not recovered backup after the upgrade and I formatted the memory card, so it's completely clean.
Now, Nokia Email has appear as new included application so I would like to use it, but when I configure my email account (form a supported services: ovi, gmail, etc...), the wizard only configures my mobile for the typical IMAP client. It's strange, because I have a different E71 also update to this same firmare and Nokia Messaging works fine and creates the Nokia Messaging account.How could use Nokia Messaging with my E71?. Is there some way to create a Nokia Messaging account form the web instead from the phone?.
When I edit a contact to assign it a ringtone or text tone, I get a different list than the sounds in the Notification center. It shows far fewer ringtones, and it doesn't even show me any text tones.
This is what the notification list looks like, and it has all the sounds- alarms, ringtones and text tones:
This is what I see when I edit a contact. Not only does it look like crap, it doesn't even contain any text tones when I select "+Text tone":
The two lists are different! Why I can't pick the same sounds for contacts?
Recently bought a 950 and the no previous messages have been sync'd. I have checked the Sync Settings and no luck.
Last time I restored a phone some messages started creeping through - on this occassion, no messages were restored.
I just got a Lumia 950, set up all my accounts, added Skype, and now my Skype messages show up in the app AND in my Messaging hub. I wouldn't mind, but now I'm getting Messaging alerts AND Skype alerts that I have new messages when I receive a Skype message. I did find a setting in Skype that turns off the messaging alerts for Skype messages, but they're still showing up, even when I'm using Skype on my PC. In two hours of work this morning this has gone past confusing to the point of being annoying.
View 13 Replies View RelatedOn my L930 (10586), I was able to go to the Messaging app and send a text to someone via Skype. That is, at the top right, there was a drop-down to select "SIM" or "Skype".
Now, it just says "SIM Text" and "No SIM", which I'm guessing means the missing SIM 2.
Is this another Dual-SIM thing (like VMM appears to not work with Dual-SIM phones) or am I doing sing wrong?
Both my 1020 and my gf's 1520 won't send pictures through messaging sharing, on our new att service. Idk if this is phone related or service related, It just says can't send message, try again.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just bought a lumia 950XL dual-sim from Microsoft, and it is a great phone. However, I am having a lot of issues with the messaging app right now. It takes a very long time to load the app and the individual conversations. When sending texts it takes 3-10 seconds before sending. I deleted all the texts on my phone, which I had backed up and loaded.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI think this has been happening ever since the first release of 8.1. Basically if the phone sleeps while a messaging conversation is open, when I wake and unlock the phone, there will often be random gibberish in the compose field. So if I want to send a message, I first have to erase the gibberish.
idk, it's just weird and annoying and I can't figure out what's causing it. My best guess is that it has something to do with typing in the pin code to unlock the phone... which I just realized I should try and test with and without having to type in the pin.
So has anyone any idea how I can change the annoying ringing tone to one of my choice [an MP3 from my media player preferably].
