sorry it was a bit vague.

Right, for example i am in a pub and my phone is sitting idle on the bar, my mother decides to text me to ask if i have clean underwear on, this message then shows up on the phone and all my mates get to see it before i can sheild it from their view. This is not on as i am 48 years old. What used to happpen is i would get an alert to tell me there is a new message in my in box which i would retrieve using the normal method. How do i revert back to this message being private and settling nicely in my in box. I am old and dont really understand this phone or how to operate it. If you can please explain using language and instructions a 3 year old would understand i would appreciate it, thanks in advance. The phone is an x10 by the way. Cheers

first go to

your messaging app -> press the MENU button -> tap on settings -> uncheck notifications and notification vibration

download Handcent

open Handcent -> press MENU -> settings -> notification settings -> notification settings -> make sure Privacy mode its unchecked

you can also play with the LED colors, specific ringtone per contact etc
