Text message - recurring notice

[Capheine]

Hey guys.

When I receive a text message, my Q beeps one notification and then never beeps again. I'm used to having a phone that beeps every five minutes when I have a new text message (the beeping stops when I check the message, of course).

I can't for the life of me figure out how to get my Q to notify me more than once about having a new text message. Anyone know if this is possible and what steps need to be taken?

I appreciate any help. Thanks!

go to start > settings > unread message alert. Turn that on (it will also alert for emails)

aaand welcome aboard.

ps. above advise is for Q1... didn't the Q9 do away with Unread message alert ?

[Capheine]

Thanks Paco!

Is there any way to do that WITHOUT getting an alert for emails?

[PacoJr67]

oh really.... i thought i read somewhere that Q9 owners had to use DontForget, too much to remember with all those Q9 models.

haven't used dont forget, will that do it for text alone?
I don't use the unread alerts anyway, all I need is one notice to remember...

oh yes! DF is the bomb for people who absolutely cant afford to miss a message. This is mostly an audio alert to the extreme...

Can check out LEDAlerts also for visual reminding!!

I don't think the 9m's built in reminder is that great. Its only for missed calls.
I want to use don't forget, but my cab file may only be a trial.
Also, why use LEDAlerts, if you are looking at the phone wouldn't you notice you have a message, etc.

LED Alerts comes in play and is handy if you just glance over to the Q....

of course it's all based on what you like/want or not.... what some find handy, someone else can find it obnoxious :}
