N73 sms tone stopped working

once again the sms tone on my N73 has stopped working AGAIN. My phone does not inform me at all that I have a new sms. Inorder to check I have to go into the messages section of the menu to check. Here is what I have tried
- Soft reset (settings->restore factory defaults)
- Firmware upgrade (i have the latest version now)
- Hard resets (using some code I found)
- Changing profile settings with different tones
- Changing profiles all together
With the exception of the firmware upgrade all of the above have been tried several times.
Any more suggestions. I am sick of this phone and I am about to throw it away. How is this so hard to fixed

Since you have did, that would normally solve the software issue if there is. It is highly provable that you got an intermittent hardware issue, a visit to Nokia Care Center would be a good idea.

  • My sms tones stopped working, why?

    My sms tones were working fine and then all of a sudden they stopped.  I've checked my alerts, sounds and all that good stuff and still nothing.  All it does is vibrate.  Does anyone know why this happens? or what can I do to fix it?

    My iPhone has the very same problem.
    I found that this is only happening with original (old) sms sounds (Tri-tone, Chime, Glass, Horn, Bell ou Eletronic). New sounds work fine (Anticipate, Bloom, Calypso, ...). But when I set to any old sound, it only vibrates.
    I've already reseted the iPhone. Didn't work.

  • .99c Alert Tones Stop Working After Sync

    About 4 weeks ago I purchased three .99cent alert tones (R2D2: Happy, Chewbacca: Roar, and Lightsaber: Power Up).  However once I synced my 4s with my macbook the tones vanished from the phone, and no matter what I do (resets, de-selecting sync tones then reselecting it, manually dragging it over to the phone) these 3 tones will not get onto the phone.  All of my $1.29 tones still work however. 
    I re-purchased them (hey Apple - how about not making people pay multiple times for tones), and again, the tones worked until my Iphone synced with my macbook, then the same vanishing act occured.
    Does anyone, especially someone from Apple, have any input on a REAL fix for this?  I would think if itunes simply let me re-download them without having to but them again, just like it was stored in icloud, would be a cumbersome, albeit useul fix.  It wouldn't be perfect, but at least that would let me have my tones.

    I was able to fix my tones not syncing. Right-click one in iTunes and choose Show in Finder. Change the extensions from .m4a to .m4r, and choose to use the new .m4r extension for each file. Re sync and they will show up and work.

  • Email and SMS notifications stop working occassion...

    I recently updated the firmware on my E71 to the latest.  I now have an issue where the email and SMS notifications on the home page periodically disappear.  Once the notification icons have disappeared, I need to restart my device in order to get the icons back again.  This never happened with the old firmware.
    Is this happening to anyone else?  Thank you.

    Sounds like an software issue..
    Perhaps you may wanna try reinstall the firmware on your phone or do the following:
    - A soft reset by keying in *#7780# when on standby - This will not delete any data but will restore all the settings back to default.
    If that does not help then you may wanna try doing a hard reset by keying in *#7370# when on standby - This will reformat the phone. DO NOT FORGET TO DO A BACK UP AS THIS WILL ERASE YOUR ENTIRE PHONE MEMORY.
    The security code by default is 12345

  • SMS Relay stopped working

    Ever since upgrading to iOS 8.1, I've been using SMS relay, no problem with my iMac. Today not so much. When I try to message someone without an iCloud account, I get an error that says they are not registered with iMessage.
    Both devices are on the same wireless connection. Text Message Forwarding is turned on on the iPhone and it is paired with my computer. I have rebooted both devices and logged out and back into iCloud on both devices.
    Very frustrating!

    In Yosemite, deleting the cache from Macintosh HD/Library/Cache and rebooting fixed the problem.

    Hi,
    It looks like the following bug
    https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCup27560/?referring_site=bugquickviewredir
    MeetMe Party Entrance Tones stop working
    CSCup27560
    Description
    Symptom:
    - MeetMe party entrance tones stop getting played to participants when they join/leave
    - The issue will go away for a few weeks if the CCM service is restarted, but then will come back.
    - When the issue comes back, it fails 100% of the time.
    Conditions:
    This problem would occur when we have user having a call from user in different node initiate transfer and also initiate MeetMe and dial user in different node. When transfer completes, we will have a leak in current node MeetMe. This issue should have been there in all CCM versions.
    Workaround:
    Restarting the CCM service will correct the problem temporarily.
    You can either try the workaround or upgrade to one of the fixed versions.

  • SMS relay only works with one iMac or Macbook Pro, but not both?

    I recently got a new iMac (5K). I already own a Macbook Pro 13" (bought in 2013). When I got the new iMac, I wanted to transfer all my data from my Macbook onto the new iMac, so I used the most recent time machine back-up from my Macbook to install onto the new iMac. No issues there. I also own an iphone 5s and ipad mini (1st generation), all with the most recent software updates. Approximately 1 week ago, SMS relay stopped working between my iMac and my iphone. I could type an SMS text message on my iMac, send it, and although it would transmit to the recipient, it would say "not delivered" on my iMac (it would show up as delivered successfully on my iphone). Consequently any SMS messages received would not show up on my iMac. I use the same login for my macbook pro and my iMac and for some reason my iphone stopped listing my iMac as one of the devices for SMS relay. I was on-line with Apple support for 3+ hours yesterday trying to figure out why this wasn't working. I did an SMC reset which temporarily fixed the problem, but as soon as I tried to use SMS relay with both the macbook pro and the iMac, the phone would only recognize one of them and ultimately always choose the macbook pro.
    iMessage chats still sync just fine but the SMS chats do not any more. I was wondering if anyone else had the same issue, and if they did, are there any fixes?
    Thanks,
    Jon

    Both the mini-displayport plugs and TB plugs are physically compatible which is why you can plug it in.   But if the iMac has a mini-displayport for video it won't work with the TB display.
    Check your System Profile to see if it tells you whether you have a TB port.  And if there is no information about that post here or look up for yourself the kind of ports for that model of iMac.  System Profiler will give yo that information (click Hardware on the left).  From the model information it can be definitively determined whether that imac supports TB.
    Also, so long as the Displays system preferences is not showing an Arrangement tab then it is not detecting the second display.

  • Sms Tone just stopped working (X6)

    So all of a sudden the sms tone on my x6 stopped playing when i recieve texts.
    im using the same profile as usual, the same tone.
    ive tried to restart the phone,
    ive tried to remove the battery for a while
    i tried to change to different profiles, where all tones works as usual except the sms tone,
    ive tried different tones,
    also its an original tune and not a downloaded one so.
    and while writing i just noticed its actually messing with the blinking menubutton aswell from time to time. Any suggestions?
    i want to save the hard reset as a last resort since im guessing that will clear all stuff i have on my phone.
    thanks in advance for any suggestions.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    @jimmyireland
    how could clearing my inbox possibly be "most likely the cause" ? or well, dont even tell me, its not like i will understand anyway...
    but i gave it a try, deleted about 4000 texts in my inbox
    didnt bother with the sent folder since x6 only saves the 20 last sent.
    but surprisingly this solved my problem, im really glad that i went here b4 i made a hard reset, also i really appreciate you took your time to help me out.
    also go to /t5/Xseries/Nokia-x6-message-tone-problem/td-p/688289 found that b4 i made this thread but couldnt find a answer, not sure wether the thread is dead or not. but if ur lucky u might score one or two additional clicks on that star of yours.

  • When my iPhone is connected (via the Lightning cable) to the usb port in my car, the alert tones are no longer played through the car speaker or the phone.  This previously worked, but has randomly stopped working, help!

    I took my iPhone to the Service center of M/s RSG INFOTECH PRIVATE LIMITED on April 17, 2014.
    Why are you posting in this forum about what occured with an independent service provider?  How is is at all relevant to Apple??  In fact, service by any person or business not authorized by Apple voids any waranty.

  • TS2634 My iPhone 4s does not ring for incoming calls. Ring tone is set/settings/sound. It used to ring. I think it has to do with updating to IOS 7.0.4? After updating IOS 7.0.3 my microphone stopped working. Had to clear/reload.

    Start with your finger at the bottom of the screen (about even with the home button) and swipe in an upward motion.  There should be a row of icons at the top of a grey field.  if the quarter-moon icon is bright white, tap it.  If it was (and still is) dark, take the iPhone in to be evaluated by a qualified technician.

  • Message Alert tone/ringtone stopped working?

    My iPhone's message alert tone/ringtone has stopped working. My iphone4 firmware has been upgraded
    to 5.1.1.  i've also reset the phone, but it didn't resolve the issue.  Pls. Help... thanks...

    My alerts sounds work briefly after a restart. Then at some point (can't say how much time passes with certainty) they no longer work. The volume adjustment sound is gone as well as the alert sounds such as an incoming mail message.
    A restart temporarily returns the sounds. I've zapped PRAM but that doesn't solve the problem.

  • Ring Tones/Alerts stopped working

    My ring tones & alerts have stopped working.  I only get the vibration. When I go to "Sounds" and try to reset ring tones, I get the following error message: "Invalid ring tone selected, please make another selection!"  That happens no matter what ring tone or alert I try.

    Pull the battery and let the device restart.  Try it again and see if it works better.  Let us know.

  • I cannot download zedge tone sync.  It says it has stopped working.  Tried to re install it but it said it had stopped working again.

    My computer will not download zedge tone sync.  It says that it has stopped working (tone sync) so I tried again and it said the same thing. Any ideas?

    When I contacted apple they told me to uninstall an reinstall iTunes on the computer. That worked for allowing me to look at things but didn't solve getting back my stuff that just seems to b gone. :(
