Is anyone's phone not sound notifying you for a text message?

thats cause you prob have the no ringtones thing they havnt fixed. Get mabelo rintones or something and download one, your volume control and stuff will work then. just get some from there to notify you and see if it works

The preponderance of evidence on the ringtones problem points to it being caused by a failure of the tool in Android that scans the media on the sdcard. This usually happens if it encounters a filename with characters it can't recognize. The solution is to clear the weird files off the sd card. Once it fails, I don't believe it tries again, so a new data.img is probably required.

It's possible that moving your android install to /sdcard/andboot/ and grabbing a new initrd.gz will cause the media folder to get read earlier in the process (under the As instead of under the Ms) and thus get loaded before the scanner fails.

All that said, I think if your ringtones don't load, you get a generic sound for a text message, instead of no sound, so this might not even apply to you, ajskhan. Have you checked that you have a notification ringtone set and working, that the volume is up, etc? (All this is in Settings -> Sound & Display)

Downloaded and installed latest zimage from the autobuild site. Things seem to be a bit smoother.

I'm seeing the same thing. I get a 3G icon, but trying to browse or access fails. I've tried updating the rootfs too. I'm on Verizon as well and I've tried some APN settings, etc. Nothing seems to work. Can't get wireless to work either.

verizon and cellular south are sharing towers in roaming areas now. So i guess 2 main companies are down for now

Any others?
