Can I get a SOUND alert for voicemail - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok I must be brain fried but for the life of me I cant find the setting to get a Sound alert that I have a voicemail. Can anyone tell me how to set up a sound alert for voicemail??

it should be whatever you have set for notifications.

All I can find is the blinking indicator for voicemail messages. I can have audible alerts for text and email but I just cant find the one for a Sound alert on a voicemail message ARGH

I'm probably not much help, but I noticed a nice simple beep beep after I installed the youmail voicemail app. Not sure if it was there earlier.

Check your sound settings. Whatever you select as "notification sounds " is what you will hear when you receive a voicemail

yeah it' the general sound notification. there isnt one specific for voicemail. it'll share the sound whatver you set it to.

unchangable notification tone

Hi there..
I have the t-mobile G2 TOUCH, hero that is, and I cant seem to find out how I could change the ringtone for my notifications.
The thing is. When I change it like it should normaly work, it keeps on giving me the lousy and way to loud t-mobile notification sound.
when i receive a mail it does give the chosen sound, but when i receive a text message it gives me the **** t-mobile tone again.
I did i guess everything i could (to getting the maps on the root for ringtone, alarm and notifications. I can see the files, but like i said before, i only hear them on my email receiving and not my text messages.
anyone familiar with this problem and if so, got an answer, or should i go back to the store and swap the fone now it is still possible...
thnx
The message tone is different to the notification tone. Go to messages - menu - settings - sound and change it there.
you most definetly are my hero
alsmost returned the poor thing haha
i never guessed that nor would i have found that one!
many thanks
Your welcome

[Q] Missing sound notification?

For some reason this only applies to K9 mail
When I get an email, there is no sound notification. At first I thought it was a bug with the sound file I selected (so I got rings extended) and that didn't help. Keep sending/receiving emails and still no sound. I checked my sound settings, there are bars on everything and the phone is not on vibrate/mute
I also got E-Mail notifier thinking a different program could call the sound but it doesn't play it either! What is going on? Stock sound files won't play... is there a problem with my rom? (axura 2.2)
When I click on the sound file it previews properly. Notifications work properly with sms. Not sure what is going on, any ideas?

Text alert tone LOUD in my ear during call

For some reason while i'm on a call, if i get a text or sms message, the message alert tone goes off at full volume on phone speaker, deafening myself and even the person on the other end of the call can hear it.
On my old captivate it made an alert tone through the ear piece notifying me of a text message, not via the loud speaker.
is there a way to change this? i've searched the forum for similar complaints but found none... thanks for any reply.
anybody have any ideas?

AHH gr8hairy1... you have shed some good light on this for me. I've never even went into Settings/Call before. Thanks for your time and reply.
Indeed.

App for filtering calls while phone is on silent ?

Hi,
I remember seeing an app a couple of months ago that, when set, would let you filter incoming calls while your phone is on silent, the problem is that i have no idea what the app is called and have tried searching with no luck.
Now what i mean is this:
If i put my friends number in the settings of the app and he calls me while my phone is on silent he will recieve an automated SMS from my phone saying that my phone is on silent but if it's an emergency that he should call me again and if they do call me again within a certain period of time the app makes the phone ring normally instead of silencing the call.
Anyway, i have no idea what it's called and would really appreciate any help in finding it
EDIT: Never mind, found it, it's called Dindy

[Q] How to disable vibration for EVERYTHING EXCEPT FOR CALLS

Hello all,
I have a problem. I'd like my phone to only vibrate when I receive calls, and nothing else. Text messages should not trigger the vibration, nor any incoming emails. Only when someone else calls me.
Right now, my phone has vibration COMPLETELY disabled, meaning that even when people call me, it doesn't vibrate.
How can I mess around with the settings such that calls trigger the vibration?
I'm using the stock rom, if it makes a difference. Thanks!
I have disabled the test message vibration, as i use Go sms pro and i have disabled the vibration in it...
so only for calls my phone vibrates.
and for email.. I dont check mails in my mobile usually.. so u can disable vibration in ur email client app too
Individually go to each app settings and disable the vibration
Be Kind everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle
I never knew that you could individually change the application's vibration settings! That should do the trick.
I currently have the default Messenger App. What I've done , is go to Settings>>Notification Settings>>Select Ringtone>>Silent. I've left the notification under Settings>>Sound to "Vibrate to always", so hopefully that works?
And on a side note, what are the advantages (if any) of using Go SMS Pro over the stock SMS application, besides customizable themes?
Edit: Doing what I've described above does not give me the desired results. The phone still vibrates when text messages arrive.
