reminder of unread msgs?

3 replies · 2,282 views · Started 29 December 2004

I just got my 6600 and like it so far. One thing my old phone would do is beep periodically to remind me of an unread text message or voicemail - in case I missed the initial alert. Is there any way to get this phone to do that?

Hmm. Towards the end of the install, I get a window labeled "AutoExecDaemon" and it says "File Not Compatible With Phone. Do You Wish To Continue Installation?"

I sent a note to their support, but I wondered if you had seen this before - would it cause any problems, and would SMS Reminder work?

Well, I decided to take a chance, went ahead and installed it, and it works great. I dont remember at the moment if it starts automatically on power up - I was having some problems with that on some other programs I was testing at the same time, and I cannot remember what worked, what didn't, and whether I tested that on this program by itslef - but the reminder function is GREAT! It fills what I saw as a major deficiency in the phone.

Great forum, also!
