No Texting alert while on a call?

xvipx

Newbie
I notice that when im on a call and someone texts me I don't get any alert whatsoever. I have to look at my phone to see the text alert on the top bar. This is pretty silly and im hoping its just a setting that needs to be changed. Can anyone help me out on how to get the phone to beep for a text while on a call please.
 
I hate saying this because I feel this is something that should be available in the stock software. You can use Handcent and it has the option to sound a notification during a call.
 
yeah that is odd to me that it just doesnt notify you of a message when you're on the phone...Handcent does work though?
 
I like that it doesn't audibly notify. Nothing more annoying than having people hear my devices going off or vice versa. The lack of noise makes it easy for me to text while talking without the other person knowing.
 
If you open your messages and click Menu then go to Options there are alot of options to set to notify you when messages come in whether its a vibrate, notification alert, LED alert, and audible alert.
 
I downloaded the Handcent app and it doesn't notify me when I have a text massage while on the phone. Help.
Look in your settings it's there. Menu--Settings--Notification Settings--Notification Settings(again)---Sound On call(Its the second from the bottom. Check it)
