I have a HTC Desire hd and I work in a noisy environment as well as ride a motor bike I often don't hear or feel the vibrations

Question

I have a HTC Desire hd and I work in a noisy environment as well as ride a motor bike I often don't hear or feel the vibrations when the phone rings. One of my previous phones had a function where it would ring once every 60 sec until I attended to the message on my phone. Is there an app that will allow this or a setting on the HTC that will provide this service. Thanks for any help in this matter because another issue is that somtimes the volume gets turned down I must accidently turn it off when I put the phone on my belt clip. One day I had 20 missed calls when checked becuse I wasn't getting any calls. thanks John V

Hate missing txt messages?This will keep notifying of new unread text messages

Do you hate it when you are away from your phone or in a loud place and miss a text message? This app will keep notifying you when you have a new unread text message so you don't miss it. It is customizable to notify as often or as long as you want. The default settings will notify you every 5 minutes.

Answer 2

There's also Notification plus.

It's made for phones that don't have a notification LED to inform the owner of pending (unnoticed) events. From the Play Store description:

Notification Plus delivers recurring notifications via the phone's vibrator or notification ringtone. This is especially useful for phones which lack a notification LED, such as the Nexus S and Galaxy S variants.
Because there is no way for the application to receive all notifications in a uniform way, only certain events will trigger the recurring notification. Those events include:
- SMS messages
- GMail messages
- Missed calls
