Dinc text/email alerts too short....

I have the droid incredible. When I get a text or e-mail, the phone makes 1 alert/vibrate alert and there isn't an option to make the alert repeat ( say every 5 min or so) until you read the msg. Any advice/ recommendations ? Thanks.

+1 for missed call. love it. not only can you customize the reminder but now when i get a text i get the stock short vibrate and 3 long vibrates. i don't miss nearly as many texts anymore. and if i do miss it...i get it 5 minutes later.

  • The text/email/alerts sound volume has gone right down on my iPhone 4

    The text/email/alerts sound volume has gone right down on my iPhone 4, but the ringtone volume is still loud! Adjusting the volume in "Settings" only changes the ringer volume, I just can't find a way to increase the alerts volume! Help please!!!

    Hi ecsands,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To "Choose alert sounds, adjust the alert volume, or turn vibrate on or off: Go to Settings > Sounds."
    For more information, see Pg. 28 - 29 of the iPhone User Guide:
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#iphone
    If adjusting the volume doesn't help, see the "Acoustic-speaker/microphone/receiver" section of this article for some troubleshooting steps:

  • What data count is accurate?  My Verizon,  #data or usage text/email alert?

    Hi,
    I'm back with Verizon after 2 years with Sprint.   With Sprint the three lines never I had (two iphones and a HTC android phone) never exceeded 2gb so I opted for the 2 Gigabyte data plan with verizon.  Now I have two iphones and one Galaxy S3.  The way the phone are used is about the same....or a little less since now my mom's iphone runs off her wifi when at home.  The other two phones run off my home WiFi, plus I typically work at home.  The 2nd Iphone is my business cell, so its use is primarily for calls and a few emails.
    I monitor the usage ever few days using my verizon and the vz website.    Yesterday those counts showed 1.64 total usage.  However I received text messages and emails last night saying I used 90% of my limit.   This morning I went jogging (and used Pandora).  I received another text/email saying I had gone over my data usage.  I immediately checked the verizon app and website, and I was not over.  There are just two days left in the billing cycle.  I checked the my verizon app, my verizon website and #data just now.  They all show 1.78, which seems accurate.  Also online the last activity logged was less than an hour ago and included data from my jog earlier.
    So, how do I know if I'm really over.....or just being suckered into upgrading.? Is the text/email alert accurate? I've read several posts on this forum and others suggesting #data and the vz website are accurate and the texts are bogus.  Others claim my verizon show no overage but their bill does.
    Any helpful responses will be appreciated!

        I can understand the frustration of receiving different information about your data usage Gibb13. We appreciate you doing your part to monitor the usage and we can definitely help with the accurate amount. By dialing #Data on your mobile device, you will see the entire amount of shared data used on your account. The amounts you are viewing on your individual phone may be from your line only. You will need the entire amount used by all your lines which are higher than your individual usage. You should also get this information on via My-Verizon. We can also confirm the amount used if you contact us by dialing *611 or 1-800-922-0204. You can also send us a private message here with your name and number and we can call you to discuss the usage and help with changing your plan. Here is a list of current plans so that you can prevent overages on your bill http://bit.ly/xdDajD .

    Hello,
    I recently updated my phone's software from v21 to v51.

    It worked I set a 1 second long sound file as message tone and now it vibrates one full length vibration
    thanks Psychomania

  • HT1920 I have got a Activation Lock on my iPhone and I need to get it activated. I don't know what Apple ID I was using with my iPhone. It shows as U***@h******.uk which is too short to be my email address. I have reset all my Apple ID passwords and none

    I have got a Activation Lock on my iPhone and I need to get it activated. I don't know what Apple ID I was using with my iPhone. It shows as U***@h******.uk which is too short to be my email address. I have reset all my Apple ID passwords and none are activating my iPhone. I have also been into the apple store and they have tried to find out the Apple ID my iPhone was using but this was not successful. The serial number of my iPhone is: C32JN641DTWF

    You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

  • My iPhone 5 is not pushing through notifications for text/ emails or alerts in a proper fashion!

    My iPhone 5 is not pushing through notifications properly. The screen lights up but there is no sound alert or banner it may or may not be followed by a sound alert and / or banner or the sound alert may come twice even after the text/ email/ app notification has been checked. Or the banner notifications are being pushed through hours after I have checked the emails. I have checked the notification setting and all is in order and software is up to date as well. Called apple support but they want to charge me even to comment on what the problem could be related to! Pl help!

    Buying a bundle doesn't mean that your device will work aborad you need to make sure roaming is enabled on your account.
    If you have a EE extra plan you still need to make sure roaming is enable on your account your plan only gives you free/cheaper calls when abroad.
    If your wanting to enable roaming on your account there could be a deposit to pay if you haven't had the device for about 6 months.
    Unless you have paid the deposit then roaming is not enabled on your account.
    You need to activate roaming on your account by calling 150 from your device or from a landline 01707 315000 before you leave the UK.
    But you can still do this if you are abroad.
    If you have had the device/contract for 6 months or over you can login to your online account and turn on roaming yourself
    Manage this device>Usage controls>Roaming abroad - Allow and Call abroad and turn it on. If the option is not there you need to call
    It can take 24 hours to activate
    If you had this device/contract for under 6 months you need to call customer services on +44 7953 966250 from a landline.
    Once you have activated roaming you can then use this link to see what cost there is and what bundles you can have.

    And this

    Also sending a text to 150 with the words of RO country your going to i.e. RO Spain will get you a reply of what the costs will be from that country.

  • Vendor email-address in SUS too short

    Hello guys,
    following problem:
    When I send the PO from MM to SUS (SRM 5.0 on Server 5.5)
    the email adress of the vendor is cut in the middle in SUS.
    The Idoc of the ECC is fine, it seems that the problem
    could be found in the Mapping of the XI or in SUS.
    Is the field in SUS too short?
    What can I do?
    Hoping for answers,
    Barbara

    Hi Barbara,
    Did you search OSS?
    This certainly sounds like something wrong in the SAP standard.
    Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

  • ALERT Category Lont Text (email) fomatting

    I have Alert Management configured to send an email alert correctly. I need some formatting for the email and therefore I choose to edit the alert category long text using SO10 ( remembering that the Text-id is ALRT ). while editing the Alert's Long Text using SO10, I add bolding, paragraph formatting and some IF statement as I would in a sapscipt for as commands. Print Preview of the newly updated standard text ( example used ALRTFRMWRKTESTL for SAP supplied alert category ASRTFRMWRKTEST ) show the formatting looks great, but when we triger the alert and view the correponding email based on this long text, we find the formatting is lost. Is there a way to hae the formatting show in the email?

    Hello,
    I Think you are able to send the email with HTML tags.
    You can also use the famous FM ZOUTLOOK to send email with the format you want, but you can only do it with you oulook client.
    hope this helps

  • Is it too much to ask from apple, an option for different volumes levels from different apps, including alarm, text, email, basically from every posible app?

    Is it too much to ask from apple, an option for different volumes levels from different apps, including alarm, text, email, basically from every posible app?

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • Paragraph Rules Run Too Short Under Text

    I've noticed that when I select a paragraph rule to run under some text (instead of the whole column) that it runs a little too short if the text has been tracked. If there's no kerning or tracking, the rule runs the width of the text just fine. But soon as the text is stretched out the rule doesn't quite extend the entire way under the text. Is there a way to fix this? I have InDesign CS5 for Windows (ver. 7.0.4).
    Ed Hedemann

    @ Lilia,
    Forced line breaks are special characters, too.
    But here's the good news. I tested your theory this morning about not applying the tracking to the last character and it DOES work for all alignment options, and it does not move the last character's position, so it is viable, in fact excellent, when applied using the GREP style. So for headings (or any other tracked paragarph that needs a Rule Below set to text width and where the text is tracked with a positive value) you want to create a 0 tracking character style and apply it to the last character inthe paragraph using .$
    The tracking value should be added to the basic character format of the paragraph style:
    The character style should do nothing but assign a tracking value of 0:
    And that character style should be applied as a GREP Style like this:
    No special characters and comletely automatic, and the text can be edited at will, or the formatting in the style can be changed and it will continue to work.
    Well done.
    By the way, welcome to the forum. If you want to learn about GREP, and you should, both as a teacher and an obviously talented user, I highly recommend Peter Kahrel's primer from O'Reilly: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596156015.do which is a real bargain at $9.99 and available as PDF, Mobi or ePub. GREP is incredibly powerful, and actually not terribly difficult to learn (and the Find/Change dialog in ID has most of the commonly used metacharacters in the dropdowns if you have trouble memorizing). There are many users here who will be glad to help you learn GREP, including Peter K, if you run into a stumbling block and post a question.
    I'm also going to update my bug report from last night to include your workaround. It might point the engineers toward an easy way to fix the code so none of this will be necessary someday.

  • Why doesnt the Iphone come standard with a missed text, email or call alert

    Why doesnot the Ipone come standard with a missed text, email or call alert, after all it is suppose to be a smart phone

    The only visual aid the iPhone has for missed calls, text, email, etc. is the Notification center. After opening notification center, you chose each of the desired areas, i.e. phone calls, mail, etc. and select your notification. This can be badges, etc. If you miss a call, it will display a notice on the screen for a period of time and the screen will then go dark again. If you wake up the phone and you have missed calls or texts, they should show up on the screen, depending on your settings. The iPhone does not, and never has had a flashing light as some other phones have.
    Check the manual for setting the Notification Center. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf

    For each mail account, along with designating a primary SMTP server, you should be able to just turn off any and all other SMTP servers you have listed.  In that case, if there is a problem with comcast, the message send should just fail.
    Also make sure your comcast smtp settings are correct (port, likely 587 but might be something else for comcast, whether you should be suing SSL or not, do you need authentication or not).
    You might find the comcast forums useful for getting the settings right - I found this:
    http://forums.comcast.com/t5/E-Mail-and-Xfinity-Connect-Help/iphone-email/m-p/66 1151?view=by_date_ascending#M131151
    The second poster notes, SSL should be on, authentication should be "password" and you should be using port 995

    Since updating my Iphone 5 to iOS 7.0.2 I'm not getting any text or email alerts.. All my setting are set to receive them but I'm not and it's really frustrating!!

    Are you receiving the actual messages?
    I wasn't receiving any text messages once I updated to iOS 7. I received messages only from iPhone users.
    I called AT&T this morning. Turns out, the update cancelled my text messaging plan.
    I recommend you check your plan!!!
