Xperia PLAY :: Can't Seem To Change Text Alert Tick Is Next To New Alert
Aug 9, 2011
I can't seem to change my text alert the tick is next to my new alert when i try to change it but the old alert still sounds when i recieve a text, any ideas?
Phone doesnt ring or set of tone when texts come in anymore. I push the volume button and everything stays quiet, the volume bar now says incoming call volume for some reason too. Its not in silent mode either.
As my ID staes, I am an old lady and I can not figure out how to change the text alert on my Curve 8530! One post said to go to "profile" tp change it!
I cannot get my SMS text or MMS alert notification to change. No matter what selection I make on the Ringtone/Alerts menu, it always alerts with the BBPro_Sanguine tone.
Somehow my iPhone 4s has changed my text alert tone from horn to minuet and when I try to change it back it won't let me, I go into setting and select text tone but its locked and so are the other options - why and how can I change it?
I recently downlaoded a bunch of ringtones off of the internet, and I also recently added another email account to my tour. I Assigned different alert tones to the 2 email addresses, sms messages, bbm messages, and facebook alerts. I have found that when I get a message, and the assigned alert tone is activated, as soon as that tone turns off anoter different alert is then activated. I cannot figure out why or how to prevent this from happening.
This is only the second time this has happened since I got the phone a few weeks back.I have all of my messages set to different specific ringtones. My SMS to one, my MMS to one, my email to one etc. So tonight I rcvd an email and instead of playing the tone it always plays that it is set for (one of the generic preloaded notifier tones)... it played my SMS tone (which is an actual song tone) to alert me to my email.
And NO I didnt recieve a new SMS at the same time. That folder is empty and the only red star alert was on my email envelope. Like I said this is very, very few and far between but why would this happen??I went over every one of my sound/alert settings and they are all the way they should be set for my liking.
I cant play saved videos that I downloaded from the internet. The only thing that works is to turn the phone off and then pull the battery for a few seconds. I'd rather not have to do this all the time.
I bought a Verizon Bold 9650 in June when they first came out. About 3 weeks after I received my blackberry, I started having some alarm issues. The issues are:
1) The alarm goes off, but no sound nor vibration is produced (it only shows the Snooze/Dismiss Dialogue) 2) Occasionally, it will start sounding off and vibrating 5 minutes after the alarm is scheduled to go off. 3) The same symptoms from #2 apply when i press "snooze".....
I have the latest software and have repeatedly reformatted the memory cards and wiped the device. Another issue I have been having is that when I try to play music it will sometimes say "Cannot play music while alert is active". I can get around this by opening and closing the camera, but I was hoping there is a more permanent fix.
I just got an 8520 that originally came from the UK. I cannot figure out how to change the alert sound for BBM. My daughter has the same phone but the menus are different from mine.
I ve lost my text icon and alert from my Curve 9360 . I ve tried following all information on phone - troubleshooting etc- things they say dont seem to appear on my phone.
Have a 8310 & can't work out how to change tones for SMS and calendar alerts? SMSs happen with no tone, so if I don't look at the phone I don't know if I have them & calendar alerts sometimes have a wierd tone, sometimes just vibrate, for some reason...
I know we can change the call alert sound. That's easy enough to find. Has anyone found a way to change the chirp itself? I am speaking of the Talk Permit chirp. I figure if the DuraMax and DuraCore can change the sounds, we should be able to. They have like 6 or 7 changeable chirps in the event you don't like a loud beep. I personally would like a subtle tone when I have my ear piece in driving down the road or when I'm at work. An 80dB blast to the eardrum at 4000 Hz kind of stings.
Is there a way during a workout Run or Weight Training to get a notification or Alert when I hit a zone. This would be useful especially if I am doing interval training.
recieved a new text message sound alert and the symbol showed on the menu page to indicate a new text message had been recieved but when I went into the text message folder there was no new text?
My N97 won't alert me to new text messages. It is set to play a sound (message 1), and i've had it for months it used to beep normally but now it doesn't anymore. and the phone is not on silent. It doesn't show the new message icon either. Only way I know I've got a new message is by going into the messages screen and seeing the red inbox sign.
I've had my X6 for about four months now and have never encountered any problems until the last 24 hours. When I recieve a text I am no longer alerted on the home screen and no noise will be made when I am on the 'General' profile. I can only see if i have recieved a text my going to messaging on the Menu and checking Inbox here. I am not alerted by an icon at the top of the screen either in the corner as i was before.
A few days ago, the text message tone mysteriously disappeared from my phone, along with the little envelope that would pop up on my screen to let me know there was a text message. I only know if I have a new message by going into the messaging screen and checking my inbox.
Is there a way to set a custom text message alert like you can a ringtone? (I'm already 90% sure you can't because I searched and found 2+ year old threads that say no, but I just want to know if there is any possibility of this now.)
As since the answer is likely still no, why do you think Apple still hasn't implemented this, especially since we now have iOS4? My concern is because while I love the default (tri-tone I think it's called), with so many friends and family with iPhones, it starts to get confusing for people (since nearly everyone around me uses this one as the others are meh).
I recently bought the Nokia X6 and I am wondering if it is possible to have the alert repeat itself after a couple of minutes when receiving a Text Message ?
Is there anyway to enable this feature like on the c3, When i get a text it just comes up saying 1 new message, With no name or number with who its from, Is this normall for the E5, Why did they leave this feature out?
I already get a vm symbol showing me I have vm but i get a text message too? How can i go in and disable? I have tried going into profiles but nothing seems to work.
Alright so everyone knows how your text messaging app will show a little '1' by it if you have a new text or whatever. How to get that on my new nexus 6. Whenever I get a new text it scrolls across the top of the screen but it doesn't show up on the actual messenger icon.
I have a need to have text (SMS) messages to wake me, but I dno't want general emails to wake me at night. My iPhone 4s spends most of its life in silet mode, but I need all text messages to be obnoxious so that they will make me. When I had a BLackberry I could set different message notification types for example I can always have text messages loud but could silence anything else. I'm toying aroudn with setting the contact SMS to be the Alarm tone but I'm not sure how this iwll work when I have it in silent...
I've read articles on Google where I'm not the only person seeking this functionality; the most recent article was a doctor that was on-call. While I'm not a doctor, I do work an on-call position.
