Sound Notifications for Missed Calls and Text Messages

Aside from the very small green light in the upper right corner (Bionic) - is there a way to get audio notifications for missed calls and texts?  I'm missing a lot of calls and texts because I'm not checking the screen constantly.  Thanks!

I am not sure about the Bionic phone specifically but I am pretty sure there should be notification sounds.
My phone, the Droid 2 global has ringtons, and notification sounds separately.
Have you tried looking in the sound settings?

  • Why does my 3G iPhone no longer rings nor vibrates when receiving calls and text messages?

    Why does my 3G iPhone no longer rings nor vibrates when receiving calls and text messages?
    During a two weeks process, little by little I notice my phoe doesn't ring when I get a phone call.  So Far I have missed 22 calls that I am aware of.  Moreover, the phone does not alert me when I get a text message.  Sometimes I receive notice the next day that I received a call or a text message. 

    Follow the basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide... reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

  • IPhone 4 iOS 5.0.1 stops receiving calls and text messages

    Hi all,
    My iPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1) suddenly stopped receiving calls and text messages. However, I'm still able to send them.
    The workaround for fixing this issue is to make an hard reset to the iPhone.
    This only occured with 5.0.1 version. It's very annoying because I'm not able to know if it's working or not (I can only suppose that it's not working when I'm a long period without receiving calls/messages)
    Do you know how to solve this ?
    Thanks in advance!

    First, who really cares what you do?  I certainly don't, and I doubt the vast majority of users on this forum don't either.  Ridiculous statements like that just make you look stupid.
    Second, this is a user to user technical support forum.  I saw a lot of whine here, not a question.  What is your technical support question?

    You can call you're carrier and have them unlock it.

  • My phone displays numbers instead of contact names for incoming calls and text - how do I fix?

    My phone displays numbers instead of contact names for incoming calls and text - how do I fix?  It used to display the names if there was a contact listed, now it just shows numbers regardless of whether or not the number corresponds to a contact name in the contact list.  Can anyone help?  I googled this problem and lots of folks have experienced it, however there is not a consensus for a resolution.

    Alexandribill, I have been having the exact same issue.  I got a new phone and restored my contacts.  If the # doesn't have the area code first then the name isn't shown.  I just added my husbands area code to my phone and called my phone from his and now his name shows up...Ugh, I have to go through and manually add the area code to all my contacts....
    I'd say Verizon needs to rewrite their program to include the area code in the restoring from backup process!

  • Missing Calls and texts, seemingly at random. + Other problems.

    I just found out that my phone is not receiving many calls and texts, I figured it was just a slow couple of days.
    Several different numbers just get VM, some get through but don't ring and I get a beep an hour or so later and notification of a missed call. Some that couldn't get through go straight to VM or 25 seconds and drop or busy signal.
    I haven't received more than 2 text messages in the past two days which is quite out of the ordinary as that is how my friends and I communicate throughout the day.
    Just got off the phone with tech support and did all their stuff. At first I couldn't connect to their test line and the support couldn't call me, then a full reset and he could call me and I could connect so we figured it was solved.  Had one known problem number call again with the same result, so problem is not solved here at all.
    My calendar also wiped the other day without my command to, and then proceeded to sync back to my gmail and wipe that calendar as well. As one might assume this caused me some major problems with my business, work and school schedule.
    Last night I was having issues with sound, either my they couldn't hear me, or I couldn't hear them for about a half hour and a half dozen redials.
    This is already my second droid, I had to go through 3 of my last phone with Verizon and am to the point of just paying the fee to cancel because I have had nothing but trouble with them since the start. If there is not some solid answer to this problem, I guess it is time for me to be done with this company, because it's track record with me is very poor and getting worse as time goes on.

    I recommend doing a PRL Update.  You can do this by dialing *228 send and choosing option 2.

  • IPhone fails receiving calls and text messages

    Hi everyone, here is my problem.
    I have an iPhone 4 32GB. It was on iOs 5.1 (always worked perfectly) untill few days ago I have upgraded to iOs 7.1.
    The problem after the upgrade is that phone calls or sms messages fails to be received. Strange thing is I can receive at times calls from cellphones, but I don't receive calls from land line numbers. And text messages arrive all at once after hours.
    I have restored the phone in DFU mode twice, set up as new phone , tried a hard reset, network reset... nothing worked. It still fails to receive phone calls and sms messages.
    Before you ask, the "don't disturb" is disabled.
    I live in Italy and have a contract with TIM, i spoke with their cistomer service and according to them there's nothing more i can do on my end.
    Any idea?
    Thanks

  • Email notification while screen is locked similar to missed calls and SMS

    Hi
    I would like to know if anyone has found a way to have the iphone notify its user that emails are waiting for them to read on the locked screen similar to the way missed calls and SMS messages pop up when received.
    If not - can someone at Apple please come up with a way to do this? I don't like having to unlock the phone to check to see if new emails are waiting for me.
    Thanks,
    Oliver

    There is not a way since this is not an option with the iPhone. You can have the new mail sound and vibrate enabled for when a new message is received.
    You can use this link to provide Apple feedback.

  • Can i use iphone to iphone for free international call and text?

    Can i use iphone to iphone for free international calls and text messages?

    If both iPhone users are on iMessage, texting will be free, though there may be data charges if you do not have Wi-Fi. You can use FaceTime Audio in iOS 7 and later to call people but regular phone calls still count against your phone plan.

  • How do u block a contacts calls and texts without blocking them?

    I want to block calls and text messages from my ex boyfriend and his family members. However, I don't want to delete their contact information. I just don't want to hear from any of them for a while. Does anyone know how to do this?

    The blocking of calls and text messages is a carrier function.  Contact your cell phone carrier to see if they offer this service.  There are no iPhone apps that will block phone calls or text messages.  If your carrier doesn't provide call or text message blocking is to assign a silent ringtone to the numbers you want blocked and ignore them.

Thanks a lot for help me!!!!

    I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
    Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
    As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

  • What happened to the sound on incoming phone calls and other notifications???

    I have my sound on "Loud (Active)" as I always do and then all of the sudden it stops making any sounds or chimes when I receive calls, emails, texts or facebook notifications.   My calls and ect. are still coming thru, but just completely silent.  I have to look at my screen to see I have a call coming thru and wait for the little red light at the top to see if I have any text messages and whatnot.   Does anyone know why this could be happening?  Now during the workday I will probably end up missing important phone calls and playing phone tag with people. 
    Any help would be appreciated

    I have the same problem, the only thing by me is its on and off could be a few days that it should work and then all of the sudden it stops
