On each BlackBerry device, customize the alert profile to notify
users when a new Hybrid Web Container message is received.
By default, Hybrid Web Container messages do not
trigger BlackBerry sounds and alerts. The only indication of a new message is a change to
the home screen icon. To add notifications, each BlackBerry user can create a new alert
profile.
This topic describes how to configure alert profiles for
Hybrid Web Container messages on two supported BlackBerry devices.
The steps are similar for other BlackBerry devices. For information about all devices,
see the BlackBerry Manuals page at http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/categories/?userType=1&category=BlackBerry+Smartphones
