Here is what you need to do:
First, make a blank voice recording. It can be 1 second, trust me and do it :)

Second: Go into your menu and go to ringer types for text messages.

Select voice recordings (or reminders) it is the second one on the list.

Select the recording you just made (the blank one).

Make sure you have a vibration selected for the texts.

And there you go! Put the volume on max and have a text sent just to make sure it works and you do not hear anything.

I just did this as a solution for a customer who did not want any noise for the texts, just the vibration. For it to vibrate, it needs to have a ringer selected. Something a tester overlooked, no doubt.

Rumor 2 only beeps when the message is received - no reminder alerts that the message is waiting to be read

Update:

Mine does work after all. You can't make it vibrate but it will make a sound every five minutes after a missed call/text. The only problem is that the audible sound isn't very loud and I see no way of increasing the volume for it. I just assumed it didn't work because apparently it was too low for me to hear at the time. BUT IT'S BETTER THAN NOTHING!!! I'm just glad it works. Make sure your message reminder is set to "ON". Go to --->TOOLS & SETTINGS>SETTINGS>MESSAGING>MESSAGE SOUNDS>MESSAGE REMINDER> CHOOSE ON OR OFF. To test it.. Send a text to your phone but don't acknowledge or touch any buttons. Wait 5 minutes and your phone should make an alert noise. Keep the phone near you the whole time so you don't miss it. It will continue to alert you every 5 minutes until you acknowledge it.

Samsung i616, Ringtone file corrupted

Best way I have found is to use explorer and browse into your mobile device and search for a folder called "volatile". I copied every wierd looking folder that started with XME or such. There were like 999 of them on my phone. Once they were removed, everything went back to normal!
