Missed call/SMS alert

OK, am I the only one who can't believe that there is no missed call alert on the iPhone? Does anyone know of an application that might perform this very basic function?

My wife and I just got an AT&T account with an iPhone 3g and a Nokia 6085. I'm not happy to read this thread. Our Motorola's with Verizon (we just switched to AT&T) had the continuous missed call alert - every 2 minutes they would beep if we missed a call, text message or voice mail. Until we opened the phone and acknowledged the message.
I thought, Ok, I may be able to live without this 'cause I absolutely LOVE the GPS. So I thought I'll just call AT&T to get my wife's phone setup.
Well, I just hung up after an hour. While very helpful and courteous, basically the final word was "people are looking at the screen more, you don't need that". She said she called Nokia for me and Nokia said that none of their newer phones have that feature. She also called one of their stores for me ('cause they work with these phones every day) and the answer was the same.
That's ridiculous. Enough to make me think about going back to Verizon. I wonder if they'll tell me the same thing.

No Voicemail But Missed Call Text Alert

Hi EE, I'm new to EE, previously I've been on Vodafone and O2. With them I always had a feature where I revieved missed call text alerts when ever my phone was unavailable with no signals either in Underground Tube, Indoors or if the phone was swithced off without having to activate voicemail. Do you have anything similar or can you please provide such feature at your earliest. Thanks.

Yes, EE do have this, but I think you do need your voicemail enabled to allow this as the setting to switch this on or off is in the voicemail settings menus.

In the short time I have had this phone there have been three occurrences where the phone will not receive calls or SMS (the screen shows full carrier signal). This usually lasts a few hours after which you get a whole lot of missed call SMS from the carr

If I notice this problem (eg. someone calls me on another phone) and I make a call from my phone to someone else (which DOES work) then all the missed calls and SMS will come through. Almost as if the phone put the cellular radio to sleep and only wakes it up when I try to make a call.
I havent called Apple support yet, thought I would see if anyone else was having similar problems with their 5 (or maybe IOS6).

Bring your phone into Apple for evaluation

Reminder sound for missed calls, SMS or voicemail????

I would like to find out whether the iPhone 3G has the capability of generating a reminder sound or vibrate when a call, SMS or voicemail was missed. Right now, I have to "wake-up" the screen to see. My old phone had that capability, and I thought it was very useful. If the phone itself can't do it, is there an application that can compensate for that missed feature? Thanks for your help.

I was just thinking about that the other day. On my former phones (treo, samsung flip, well ANY other former phone I've ever had) there was at least an led that would blink to tell me I missed a call, had a voicemail, etc...
With the iPhone I have to wake up the screen to see if I've missed a call. Pretty annoying. I love the iPhone but this is just one more thing on the list that makes it stand out from all the other phones out there (and not in a good way!)
Oh well.

6700 slide missed call & message alerts problem

If there is a missed call or message when the keypad is locked I dont see any lights blinking or D-Pad lights blinking. Is there a way that phone gives us a alert on missed call or messages as how it is in 6700 classic (D-Pad lights blinking untill we take a look at the alert)
Any suggestions

I've finally got an ap called Miss Calls Reminder - this is for missed calls and texts. It is on the Ovi store. You have to ID your phone etc., then it asks you to send to phone. The problem is when you get a text with a link for the ap from Ovi and click on it it says it's not available for your model. Instead go the webpage which is mentioned Tektronic - you will see the ap, download it to your pc. It's not free - think it's around £4.00. Once you've downloaded to your pc, then plug your phone in - can't remember what I did next - something to do with Nokia Application Installer on Nokia PC Suite. Anyway you will see the logo - so transfer it from pc to phone. Then you will have option for a trial or buy. Took me three goes to buy it. When you have it on your phone under menu, applications you then enable it and change the settings. What a god send. I nearly missed a really important job 'cos I didn't here text coming in and didn't check phone and had 5 minutes to accept the job. So you can change the settings to get a visual reminder and an alert tone for calls and texts, or just texts. You you can set it to say 15mins and then set the warning tone as long as you want.

6300 Missed Call LED Alert Settings

Anyone knows how to adjust this feature? Like turning it off in silent profile? Or make the blinking more frequent in Outdoor profile? Thanks!

Nokia phones do not have that feature and it's not something that you can add to that model.
I've only seen this feature on some motorolas and samsungs.

Call - SMS - e-mail warning software

Looking everywhere for app that will warn me about missed call, SMS or e-mail. Most of other phones have LED or short beep as reminder until you check the message or call log. It must be something like that for iPhone.
Hope programmers take notice of this. Yesterday i missed important SMS for half day and that one was one too many I missed so far. Never happened to me with Blackberry.
Thanks,
Zack

None that I know of, since it was not added after year on the old iphone I wouldn't count on it. You should get used to just checking the iphone once in awhile for new messages, they will show up the home screen (sms and calls will). Since I use my cell phones as my watch that is what I do, but a simple beep or something indicating a new unread message would be nice when I am at home and don't check it as often while its sitting around some where.

I don't have any missed call but my black berry 8100 says that I have two.

Hi, I have a blackberry 8100, one day I did a reset of my blackberry removing the battery and then putting again and turning on my device, then, one person called my two times, but I didn't answer, and then like it's normal, it shows me an icon with the number 2 and an icon of a phone with an x, that means that I had two missed calls. I checked and were the lost calls that made that person, but the ERROR is that happened 15 days ago, and the icons stills here, for example if somebody calls me and I don't answer it shows me that I have 3 missed calls, and no 1 missed call like it will be normal. What can I Do? after that I have made resets of my blackberry but the number two stills there, please help...

If you have a rogue New Message icon on your Homescreen, or a negative count (-1), any one of these solutions could clear it, or reset it to zero:
Try these options:
Hard Reset the BlackBerry by holding ALT, CAP (right Shift key), and DEL (or pulling out and reinserting the battery)
View Messages > Saved Messages
View Messages > View Folders, check each folder (missed calls, SMS in and out boxes, MMS in and out boxes, Saved, browser, phone logs etc)
Scroll to top of message folder, over the date heading, click or press menu to MARK PRIOR OPEN
Change your theme and see if it persists, and change back to your desired theme. (Options > Theme > select.)
Wipe and reload your OS.

8330 Missed call alerts

Anyone know of a program like Blackberry Alerts that will work with Verizon 8330 Curve? Handango says not compatible. I downloaded one off of handmark that seems pretty pointless.
I am looking for audible missed call alerts.
Thanks!

Unless they show up on your online account, probably not. Not on the missed calls anyway. The sms should come through once you turn on your phone or get into coverage area.

Is there a setting or an app that shows e-mail notifications without having to unlock the screen...like SMS and missed calls?

Is there a setting or an app for the iPhone 4 that allows you to see that you have new mail messages from the "lock screen" like SMS and missed call messages? My primary e-mail account is MS Exchange and I'm running iOS 5. Thanks!

Nokia E6 - missed calls, new SMS

Hi!
One question about missed calls, new SMS...
Is it normal, after I get new SMS and missed call I can't see that on my screen.
I use default Screen saver (Big clock and I have to push "middle" button to see notification about SMS/call.
I even don't see clock if i lock phone...
Is this normal behaviour of E6? Very confusing...
Thank you

Hello, you could try resetting you mobile by taking the battery out and putting it back in, You should get a flashing light when you have a message or missed call. Normally around the center key.
If you have ongoing problems then take your mobile to the nearest care center to be assesed.

Io7 on iphone 4s hangs when i receive missed call alert in lock screen?

io7 on iphone 4s hangs when i receive missed call alert in lock screen?

my son had this problem. I went to the apple store and they wiped out and restored the phone.. They said that was all they could do but that I should call our phone carrier and ask them. I did. They asked if in the top left side, next to battery power there was a icon of a half moon. There was. They said to go in to settings and go to "Do not Disturb" and turn it off. I did.....problem solved!!! Somehow "do not disturb" was turned on and that is what happens if it is!!
I hope this helps.

I need a ringtone to alert me when i have a missed call? can someone help?

i need a ringtone to alert me when i have a missed call? can someone help?

THere's generally some type of default notification for a missed call - I'm not sure the point though, if you're not with your phone to hear it ring then how are you going to hear the missed call notification?

Call establish alert - missing feature

Hi,
I'm using 6300 and wish to hav a new, basic and simple but imp feature for Nokia phones. not sure if this is already available in other Nokia models.
You would agree that there is a time delay (min 10-20 seconds) from the time the caller hit the green button till the call is actually established (till you hear hello from other end).
This delay is due to the time taken to establish the call from network. Sometimes the called party is busy with other call and takes even minutes to answer the phone. Sometimes the caller has auto-redial enabled for bust tone.
When the caller is extremely busy and do not want to hold the handset to his ear during this delay. So I wish to have an alert (vibrate+sound) whenever the call is established.
This is a very basic feature that is available in the low end version on Motorolla handsets, why not NOKIA?

Also, go to the market and search for "missed call alert" apps. There are several. Be she to read the reviews on the ones that look interesting to you.
And I agree...for as awesome as this phone is, I can't believe that there no such feature included with the phone's apps.
