Guest chisel900 Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 My job depends a lot on me being on call and woken in the middle of the night by the work computer via sms txt message. This informs me of alarms that require my attention. Now this was fine with my old phone cuz if I slept through the first message I more than likely woke by the second, however my good old SPV only rings on the first message it receives, any subsequent messages I get there after are received silently. I am very pleased with the fact that my phone values my sleep by keeping quiet but I would like to tweak it so that every txt message I get (without looking at) come in making a noise. I use a long sms ring tone during the night but find this annoying during the day as i cant stop it going off. Any boffin with a solution?? :) :?:
Guest Brody Posted July 13, 2003 Report Posted July 13, 2003 Welcome to the site :) This is a well known problem with the phone and one that, as far as i know, is yet to be resolved unfortunately. The only advise i could give you was to maybe try a shorter but louder sms alert so that it was less annoying during the day but was loud enough to definately wake you in the middle of the night ;):D Sorry that i couldn't be of more help!
Guest nige Posted July 14, 2003 Report Posted July 14, 2003 you could use one of the other profile settings. For instance if you never use the silent profile, like me, simply change its name to Nightime or something, and then set the SMS notification to a wav that is very loud and very long let me know if you need more details on how to do this...
Guest chisel900 Posted July 15, 2003 Report Posted July 15, 2003 Thanx for replys, will use the profile setting as you suggested. Meanwile i think a word in Oranges shell like might be in order. :)
Guest Mr_Protozoa Posted July 15, 2003 Report Posted July 15, 2003 Why not try this sound.... http://homepage.ntlworld.com/mr_protozoa/s...phone/alarm.zip Should wake anyone up.
