Yes there is? Go to the Notifications tab under Sound & Notifications, then use the pulldown menu at the top and go to Phone: Missed call and Messaging: New text message, and click the "flash light for..." box.
Hope that helps,
Petrov.

Whenever I press the start button, and work with pulldown menus, there is loud annoying click which I am unable to switch off or lower its volume, because if I lower the volume, I will also lower the volume for the ringtone. I found the file which does the "click" but am unable to delete it. Any suggestions?
Goto Settings -> Sounds and Notifications -> Disable sounds for Events

This is obvious but not good. If I do this, there won't be any notifications for all of the events, like missed phone call, new text message etc.

Thank you, it worked. I installed mute files, and clicks disappeared!
Hey fellow Heroes (that's what Hero owners are called, right? )
Does your screen flash for notifications?
In the Sound & Display settings, there's a setting called "Notification flash", subtext "Flash screen for notifications" and you can set for the screen to flash for calls, messages etc.
Now I have all the boxes ticked, but when I get a text messages or email, the screen doesn't flash, only the trackball (for text msgs) or trackball and LED (for emails).
Is it just me or do other people experience this too? Would be nice to see the screen flash and get a quick little text message preview or something.
Thanks for any replies!
No screen flash here either - stock Orange Hero.
wheel
Only the wheel flashes IMHO
So what's that option in settings for then? Nothing? Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding what the option is meant to do?
I have my wheel flashing as soon as some new email or notification arrives. Clearing notifications clears the warning.
Is the screen not a different beast entirely from the trackball / wheel / round spinny thing ?
If the option says Screen Flash then surely we should see the screen flash when its on and a notification happens ?
An option for trackball flashing would be called Trackball Flash.
IMHO
Thanks joemax, that's exactly what I'm talking about!
I'll try again and rephrase my question: You know how when you get a call, an alarm, or a calendar reminder, the screen turns on and shows you the call/alarm clock/calendar screen? I thought that was the notification flash of the screen. So why, even when you turn said setting on, does the screen remain off when you get a text message/email and only the trackball (and LED for email) flash? Is that a bug?

Only the wheel will flash. I've looked into a lot of Android forums for this and all the users report the wheel as flashing but not the screen.
Ok, but do we agree that the screen should light up for messages and emails based on the options in the settings menu?
There is a program that turns the screen on when you get a message, and also one that pops up the text message on screen. If thats any help!

SMS Popup from Market! GET IT! Cracking App!!!!!!
Yes, it's called SMS popup in Market. I'm using it and it works fine for text messages. No popup/notification for email though.
The screen does not flash, it is probably just a mis-translation.
If you go into the 'Notification flash - Flash screen for notifications' settings it lists 6 tickboxes for things like Missed Call and Email etcetera.
Basically think "trackball flash" where the menu is reading "screen flash" and it works, this is the page where you decide which events warrant your trackball flashing a notification.
I leave mine to flash only on Incoming Call, Missed call and SMS.
Having it light up for every work email that comes in is a pain.
The screen does not flash as was configurable on some older HTC Windows Mobile units.
Kind Regards.

Sorry been away, peeps have already named it for you..
Just got a TD 2. Really love it after using Eten M600 for years.
But, somethings got me stumped. Frequently the device vibrates for a few seconds without any connection to an obvious event. I've checked that the phone ringer is not set on vibrate. I also checked sound & notifications - theres no event that I can see set to vibrate. After it happens, I check the notifications - and there is no event listed there.
So what is causing this to happen?

does it vibrate when u touch the dispaly?
No, just vibrates for no apparent reason.
No calls or events or notifications.
There must be a cause - I just cannot think what it could be.

Still a bit of a mystery.
Thnx for your advice thou!
I have reverted back to the old messaging app that came standard on the G1 but I can't get it to show a green LED light when I have a text message like it use to. I go to settings and I don't see an option for it. As a matter of fact the options seem rather limited, and I thought there were way more before I went to Handcent SMS. But since that has given me problems I went back to the old messaging app but there is no options at all really . Any help?
You posted in wrong section but open the message app and click menu and notification settings and there you go!
Ah sorry about that. But when I click menu all I see is Notifications, Select Ringtone, and Vibrate. I am running Dwang's ROM if that makes a difference. I can't click Notifications to bring up a new menu, it's just a check box.

Go to the main screen where you see all your message threads click menu check notifcation and under should be notification setings there should have blink led and led color
Hmm think it had to do with my ROM. I went to the Cyanogen ROM and now the option is there. Thanks.

I´ve searched in every forum but I cant find out how to change the vibrate?
Now when I get a calls i vibrates for like 10 sec, is there anyway to change it to shorter vibrate?
I am also looking for an answer on this question.
Anyone ?
I tried a cooked rom and it has a alternative vibrate pulse and ringer, but not both...
I think there should be a way to change the vibrate type...
Anyone has an idea??
umm not that difficult ...
from the home screen slide all the way over to settings,
Sound and Display and scroll down and tap Ring type
settings > Sound & Display >Ring type
