sms not receiving till i turn on screen - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi, i find a lot of the time my sms messages are not coming through till i activate the screen from sleep. it does not happen all the time but a lot. has anyone else had this problem/ know why its happening?
thanks

r u using the 'Disable screen-wake up on new MSG' from the XperiaTweak?
i had the same problem as you before and after i uncheck this from the tweak its seem to solve the issue.
u might like to try this if u r also using the XperiaTweak.

thanks. that solves one problem and makes another one. i will send a message to the tweak guy and see if he can fix it in the next update.
thanks for the help mate

No problem...
So it solve your new MSG issue?
Anyway i just post a reply to nelshh...waiting for his reply....

Shouldn't "Disable screen-wake up on new MSG" disable the new msg screen wake-up? I think the function of this setting is the same that you are referring to as a bug Or am I wrong?

i think the main issue is that maybe some of us interpret this as that when u check this option, it only disable the screen from waking up but the phone would still alert (vibrate/LED flashing) when there a new text message.
So maybe that y we figure it as bug.....my bad....

I am also having the same issue.
I have XperiaTweak installed and have the "disable screen wakeup on enw msg" checked.
Before I hard reset my phone, i had not problems with this function. If i got a new sms, my phone would play its jingle and start flashing its LED's. Now, the phone does absolutely nothing until I hit the power switch to wake up the phone, and only then plays its jingle and flashes its lights. The sms date stamp will tell me that I got the sms a while ago but it just doesn't alert me at the time. Any suggestions?

If you've got the "disable screen wakeup on new msg" option checked, surely that is what it will do? DISABLE the wake up function? So my suggestion would be to uncheck this option.
Also, if the problem persists, it can be sometimes be rectified by a registry fix.
Go to HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL and change the value of "DisableSMSWakeUpEvent" to 0.

Any hack to stop phone from returning to today screen after power-on????

Is there a way to stop WM6 from going to Today screen when I turn it on? I want it to just return wherever I was when I turned it off. Thanks.
I believe it only happens if you have the PIN setup, at least on my Tilt.
Nope, it happens all the time. I'm in messaging, I turn the screen off and then on and it returns to the today screen. It is incredibly annoying.
Mine does not do that.
Must be a setting somewhere because I know other people have the exact same problem.
I also own the tilt and have the same problem. It's very annoying.
It is a setting issue..
On my Tilt this works: To stop the screen from returning to the Today screen, just go to settings > Personal >Today > Items and choose the Today timeout period from the drop down list.
No dice for me. It was one of the first things I tried before anyway. Its especially annoying when I'm using PocketPlayer and I turn off the screen to save juice and when I turn it back on again PocketPlayer flickers for an instant, then it goes back to the Today screen then I have to retap PocketPlayer, then it has to redraw. Ugh!!!
Yeah,i have this same problem with my TyTn...but it does not happen on a fresh ROM...which leads me to say that it has to be a program installed that is causing it...i have a Kaiser (that is awaiting warranty replacement) on the stock ATT ROM, and it does not do it, considering, i have no apps installed...
pocketplayer has an option to stop this: disable switching to home screen
Even in PocketPlayer toggling that option has no effect on my problem. I am convinced it is a simple registry setting but I don't know what it is.
Anyone have a solution to this?
Just got a Kaiser and I agree, this is extremely annoying. I was hoping there was a registry hack to stop this.

Sure you can
Start->Settings->Today->Items->Today Timeout (Diable it).
This determaine after how much time it will display the today.
Disable it.
Enjoy,

Nope. Checking or unchecking seems to have no effect. Even when checked, turning the device off and on will immediately show the today screen, not in the 4 hrs (or whatever you have it set for) in the dialog box.
Have you tried removing the PIN Lock feature under Settings>Lock?
Aha! the pinlock was set to 0 minutes for some reason. disabling it has sorted the problem for me.

Happy to Help
Mine is set to 60 minutes. If that truly is the fix, it isn't an acceptable one. Thanks for the info, but HTC should fix this.
its definitely not the fix. Mine was set to 15min and that's what I want it at in case I lose it. I am 99% sure its a registry setting and I am also 99% sure that I saw the fix in some forum on another site once but can't remember where or find it again.

Backlight comes on with any incomming text message or email message

Hi I am running Ruu_Signed_Duttys_WM6.1_5.2.19700_Hybrid_V2_1_64.08.21_CubeV2 ROM.
And everytime I get an incomming text message or e-mail the backlight comes on.
This happens even after you put it into standby and none of the other buttons will wake it only the power button.
i think that is by default and if u want the phone to wake by pressing any key than u have to make that change under settings.
It should not do that, the last ROM I used did not have that issue. It may not be the ROM I would like to know if anyone else has this problem.
Hi everyone..is there really no way to disable the screen turning on when a text or e-mail comes in. When using a WM6.1 ROM, I have tried different ROMs and they all the doing the same. It seems this should be something that can be configured.
Any input from the experts...if not I will go back to WM 6.0
I didn't have it happen with L26 v4 ROM - it does with Dutty's and it does with Death v3. I have heard from others in those threads who say that it does not happen to them. Some have said that the BBCONNECT program 4.0.0.92 is the solution - I have not bothered to search for or try yet. For me , right now, the common thread seems to be AT&T based ROMs
Arghhhhh....I hate to step back into the dark ages but that issue really bugs me. Knowing that my phone is in my case and everytime and e-mail comes in the screen turns on for 10sec....that accounts for the my short battery life.....And I only want to run the ROM's from Dutty he does really great work....wish I knew half of what he does. I might be able to fix it myself...That then brings the question why certain ROM's an not others...
I will leave that question to the experts.
I think it does this because it is putting an alert notification on the screen... I disabled those on mine and they still seem to come on the screen!!
It's so annoying to have to deal with your emails and at the same time have to dismiss countless notifications!!!
Same annoying problem here.
WM 6.1, and every setting in 'sounds & notifications' fails to show results.
Whether I disable or enable the tone, the showing of a message, or the vibration.. no dice: it keeps waking up from standby mode.
i remember some else asking this question as welll... and i think someone was talking about changing something in the the registry, but i am also interested in this. it would come in handy when i have to put my phone in standby for a long time.
bump
I too have this same issue. I've had my new ROM for several months and love it, but I would like to know how to stop the backlight from turning on everytime an email is received.
It never used to do this, however I am pretty sure the backlight always came on for new text messages.
I can deal with the text messages. However, I run blackberry connect for my work email. Having the backlight come on for each email obviously kills the battery life.
I know if can be disabled as it was before. The question is how? Is there a registry setting?

How to disable keyboard flashing light after new SMS

Hi,
Becasue of poor battery in our Diamond I want to disable flashing light notification on keyboard when new SMS has been received. This "light notification" is flashing as long as I don't read new message <grrrr>
Anyone has idea how to do it?
Thanks for help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=434620 my hack allows you to disable it too but an LED light does not take enough batter power to merit disabling it. they are the most energy efficent part of the device i dont think you will notice any gains disabling it but you can test for us
Juggalo_X - I will notice that baterry lives longer, because I often recive SMS and I read it after couple hours [even 10]. During that time LEDs are flashing and my baterry is running down.
I read about your hack, but I don't see any information that it allows to disable flashing notification after new SMS arrived. Are you sure it can do it? I installed couple of software that should disable it, but none of it worked properly, so I want to be sure
Ps. I already remove from the registry "AvailableOptions" from all of the notifications, to be able to use option responsible for repeat of the flashing notification. It didn't help :/
As I said your hack doesn't work. After new SMS LED are flashing all over again.
Any other ideas?

Can't use touchscreen when calling

Hi guys!
Everytime i want to make a phone call or when I'm in a phone call I cant use the touch screen on the phone, it only stays completely black. I recently updated my phone from leaked V20a to CM 10.1 and thought that maybe the leaked version was causing the problem. But the problem continued on CM and it's getting really frustrating. I noticed that my radio haven changed after update and says "LGP880AT-00-V20A-EUR-XXX-MAR-04-2013, is this causing the issue?
Cheers!
Proximity sensor...Calibrate it and it should be ok!:good:

Got to hiden menu (3845#*880#). Go to: Device test, All auto test menu - Full, ALC / Proximity test. After presing calibrate try to set it to Default. This helped me (DEFAULT option).
Now it seems like i'm not even able to access the hidden menu. When I type in the code nothing happens and when I press the dialer I get "USSD code running" + Connection problem or invalid MMI code.

you can't access the hidden menu if you're not on LG firmware. :silly:
I managed to get into the hidden menu by restoring leaked V20A. The advice above did not work however. When I try to press calibrate I get "Proximity Cal fail: 1023". Anybody know what to do? :crying:
Same here. I guess I'll have to send it back... :'(
