Disable notifications?

Is it possible to disable the notification left soft key without turning off sounds? Basically, I just want my phone to sound and vibrate when I get an sms or email, without making that notification left soft key balloon thing pop up.

Start - Settings - Sounds & Notifications - Notifications tab - Select the event (Messaging: New E-mail, Messaging: New SMS, etc.) - Uncheck Display Message on Screen.

Bump on this. Has anyone figured out a way to get rid of the pop-up notification when receiving an email and/or sms? It's very annoying and unnecessary and changing the settings in Sounds and Notifications doesn't seem to help.

This has been discussed on others devices, at this time, there is no solution its part of the OS and can not be changed.

I see what you mean, the option I pointed out does not show the bubble on screen, however, it still changes the left soft key to Notification.

I thought you only wanted to get rid of the bubble popping up.

Here you go, this was posted over in the Kaiser forum at xdadev.

I assume you use Push email, apparently that is what causes the problem.
