E71 How to reactivate SMS onscreen notification

[ Edited ]
Dear all,
I believe I have by mistake deactivated the onscreen SMS notification (bottom of the screen next to missed calls), anyone knows how to get this one back?
Thanks,
/r

On the Personalization screen, press Home screen. On this screen, make sure that "Active" is enabled. Then press Mode settings, then Home screen applications, then Enabled applications. On that screen, you will see a list with squares some of which are ticked and others not. The ticked items appear on your active home screen. Scroll through the list and tick the Message notification box.

Thanks Alchemy,
The check box is already checked, I tried to uncheck, turn off, check off/on again. Still nothing happens. I get the missed calls as usual but no longer the useful sms notifications...
Great if you have any idea...
Cheers,

Re: E71 How to reactivate SMS onscreen notification

Oh dear! To be honest, I am not an expert beyond the obvious. However, it strikes me that you could try restoring your phone to factory settings - down the list on the same page as Personalisation. Back up phone first, and you may lose shortcuts and installed (unsigned)apps.

I have had the same issue. Does anyone have any fix? Because this just started happening recently when my inbox grew past 2500 msgs.

I am also having the same issue where my onscreen Email notification no longer shows - it worked up until yesterday and I cant seem to get it back.

Yes this is simply a bug.
Delete your sms to get below 2500 messages and it naturaly comes back. Let's hope Nokia will solve this...

Re: E71 How to reactivate SMS onscreen notification

Clean out your inbox, do you really need to hold onto 2500 messages? a lot of which are probably single or double word replies? I'm sure if you do whittle it back down to say 500 your phone might even get more responsive.....

Re: E71 How to reactivate SMS onscreen notification

This issue has nothing to do with the number of messages. It was working fine with me and it stopped working at 2200SMS. The reason why it stopped is that I hide it by mistake and never could get it back. restoring to factory settings wont do it, upgrade the software to the latest version wont do it as well. settings are fine, but the box is just not appearing.
