I am not sure if anyone else has had this problem, but I have had the Tilt for a week now, and I noticed that the Time Zone was changing from PST to London time. I have my device set to automatically change to the correct time zone (under the phone settings)... If I disable it, there is no problem, but I travel a lot so I would like it to change automatically.
I am using the Standard ROM from AT&T. I think it could be a ROM issues since this problem would pop up every so often on different cooked ROMS on the Hermes. BUT I wanted to see if anyone else was seeing the problem.
Thank you,
I have the Tilt and switched to the HTC factory ROM. I have been experiencing this problem as well. It hasn't happened in a few days, but it is really frustrating when it is. My Outlook calander gets totally messed up along with the current time. When I go into Time Settings it is set as London. I'm not sure what was causing my problems or how I apparantly fixed it, but it looks like it went away.
Anyway, you're not the only one!
Ditto, I have a stock ATT Tilt and have disabled the automatic install of the bloatware. I'm in California and the phone reverts to Mountain time at least once a day. The optional cabs i have installed are duttythroy (DY) touch skin, DY task manager, DY HTC sim manaer, DY black 3g comm manager, DY HTC voice recorder, Equinoxe retouched dialer, and PCM contacts & keyboard. Any help or direction is much appreciated
yes, this has been happening to a lot of people...this also causes activesync to run in the background all the time and I always find myself turning activesync off in the task manager a few times a day...the one thing I which was posted in another post was I deleted a notification called repllog.exe "app run when time changes"...now i'm not sure if this fixed the time zone issue but it did stop activesync from running all the time...
Thanks strikeIII, I looked for repllog.exe using the search function and sifting through the windows directory, I can't find it. Would you happen to remember the path?
That would be a good find considering it should improve the battery life quite a bit.
Ok guys, what you need to od is:
Go to Start->Settings->Personal->Phone
Find "Time Zones" tab and untick "Automatic change time zone and clock".
That sorted same problem here in UK.
Also in California and was having the problem on my TNT 2.0 flashed 8525 and now my new stock 8925 does the same. was also causing havoc on my calendar and schedule. I went ahead and disabled the auto update for now and all is fine.

You'll not find the particular repllog entry (re "start on time change") that way. It's in the "notifications queue" so you'll need say SKtools or Memmaid (or Scarybear check notifications if you can find it). In one of these go to the notifications queue.
BE VERY CAUTIOUS.
Do not delete other Repllog entries because you can kill Active Sync altogether. I strongly advise a full backup before deleting Repllog entries. They can be re-entered using SKtools or Memmaid but it's straightforward.

Thank You, I used the "uncheck auto update" function. Has worked well since 11.35 pm 10-16-07. Chris

yeah, sorry but I used MemMaid to take care of the repllog.exe file. this may not cure the time zone change situation but it does take care of activesync running in the background. At least if you travel a lot the time will still change automatically.
I do travel alot, I'll give it a try thanks again StrikeIII, Chris
I'm having the same issue. I'm in Idaho and my phone keeps switching to Central time. I've likewise had to disable the automatic time zone changing in the phone settings to get it to stop.
I have had this problem on my Titan/Mogul since day 1. I think it has something to do with Windows/TimeWizard.exe not sending the correct queries to NIST:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\LockStream\Time\Servers
Server1: http://time-a.nist.gov:13
Server2: http://time-b.nist.gov:13
Server3: http://time.nist.gov:13
Server4: http://time-nw.nist.gov:13
Disabling time synchronization solved it for me as well.
I did search first, and my problem isn't the normal "multiple alarms at one time"...The reminders are going off like they should AND at the time of appt (not normal). Anyone encounter this? Is that a system setting I accidentally changed?
Things I've done lately:
- Loaded Kaiser Tweaks, made some recommended changes.
- Loaded the Tilt Cab for SPB Mobile Shell (enables themes to work).
- Some appt. times were off an hour, so changed time zone back and forth.
- Loaded Chartcross GPS Test
- Loaded then removed the HTC Keyboard/Dialer Cab
I do us MemMaid all the time and remove duplicated entries...
I don't know if this is the reason for your issue, but Windows Mobile by default is suppose to play a reminder X min/hours before the start time (whatever you set) and then if you DO NOT "Dismiss" that reminder it will play again at the start time of the appointment.
Are you maybe not dismissing the first reminder?
Thanks for the reply - Yes, I am. I even made a Test Appt - for 10am, with a reminder of 15 minutes. It went off at 945am...I dismissed...all was quiet until 10am.
happens to me too
I have a tilt, and I'm running the latest tilt unreleased official rom from the upgrading forum here.
ROM Version: ATT rom aku 0.4.4 build 18128
Radio: 1.27.14.09
Same exact thing happens to me. This was also happening with the rom that came on the tilt originally. when I dismiss an appt, I get a notification at the time it is supposed to happen too.
I checked under notifications after dismissing one, and I did not see the appt. in the list. I did see "enrollnot" at the appt. time, but that was it.
I haven't looked too much through the registry for a switch to turn this off, but it is pretty annoying.
This is happening to me too. It's not really a big problem for me even though I use my appointments constantly for work. It's just a minor annoyance. A fix would be nice though.
Then I guess this behavior is normal now, and I didn't necessarily screw something up. Having used a WM device since 2001, I just never encountered that - and I just got the Tilt this week and assumed it was me since I couldn't find any forums reporting the "problem".
Thanks for the replies, and I agree - it would be nice to have a setting to allow this "feature" or turn it off.
This is especially annoying for birthday reminders. I have them set to remind me 7 hours before (i.e. 5pm the night before). Problem is that even though I dismiss the reminder, I get woken up at 12am since these are all day events. Ugghhh...

I have the same exact problem!
mine too and I'm using the original AT&T ROM...
Unless this is a new feature to WM6, I've never seen this happen on any other version of WM.
For those of you having this issue, do you have the following software running:
AlarmPal
AlarmToday
PhoneAlarm
or some other calendar or reminder enhancement app such as SPB Pocket Plus w/ Repeating Alarams addon installed?

I am experiencing the same thing, and I don't have any of the mentioned apps running. Nothing more than the built-in calendar and tasks, actually.
FIXED on my tilt
I compared the registry entries for the calendar between my tilt and 8525. I found some differences between them, and modified the tilt registry settings. this problem has now gone away for me. I think it was because of one of these bits under DEFAULTS in this key, but you never know.....
Here's what I changed:
old tilt with repeated reminders at appointment time:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Calendar\Reminder]
"DEFAULTS"=hex:1e,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,04,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,a0,44,03,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
"WAVEFILE"=""
new tilt today that does not repeat reminders:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Calendar\Reminder]
"DEFAULTS"=hex:1e,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,04,00,00,00,00,\

"WAVEFILE"=""
maybe someone with access to the WM6 manuals has the decode for this key.

FYI.... make sure to use the CODE tags when adding registry entries. Look carefully and you will find extra spaces in your post above. If someone were to copy/paste that code, they would get the extra spaces making the key not work properly. By adding the code tags, this won't happen.
HMMMM....fixed? maybe, maybe not
I think I had this happen again today, after a few days of no repeats I got one today. Not sure if this fixed it or not. YMMV.
I'm going to let it simmer a few more days and see if it was a fluke, or if it really didn't fix the issue.
I think it's a WM bug because mine will do this off and on. I've never really noticed it until this thread was started but I've kept my eye on it and I get one that's multiple one time, then the next notification won't be. No ryhme or reason to it.
I agree, seems to be sporadic.
I'm on the stock AT&T 1.60 Tilt ROM and thought this was consistantly happening for me. So yesterday, rather than doing the Snooze for 15 mins, I just hit dismiss. 30 mins later I realized it never went off again and I missed my meeting . So yeah, it doesn't seem to consistent...
Just curious what people think about this app? Currently I am using Slueth v3.0 and love it but am looking for a little more customizability.
nothing exciting for me
I think it is great I have stopped using Pocketplus and InesoftAddressBook. I am very happy with it, took me a couple days to really get used to it.
-McMex
Me too
I think it's the best ready to use application. Install and enjoy
But on the now page, bluetooth and wifi state are missing
its ok not to wild about it
I tried it for 2 days and really like the fuctionality of it. BUT I had to remove it because it slows down the switch to phone enough that I have missed over half of my calls. It will ring only for about 5 seconds even though the caller can hear it ring for about 25 seconds. So even if I am fast in getting to phone it has already gone to voice mail. I removed it and now everything is back to normal.

I think u need to check your phone... I've had 2.0 since the beta leaked and no problems whatsoever! Runs smooth, doesn't slow down my device at all, everythings perfect.
To be honest the programs more for an "oooh" factor then functionality, it'll always be easer to pull out the stylus and do it the good old fashioned way. BUT it does help a BUNCH when driving...
To the original poster, theres a 14 day trial from SPB, why dont u try it, see what u think. U don't like it? then simply uninstall it.. no harm done.
i like the interface but one thing i feel that the smart gesture doesn't work on my tilt somtimes, i need to try very hard to call out the interface (something similar to alt-tab in pc)
overall, i am happy with the functions
The gesture works best if you start at the 'start' icon at the top and drag your finger to the middle of the screen.
I think it's a great program, I keep finding things I like. It works better than HTC's touchflo in my opinion.
Cheers
Its a bit of a step down in some cases, You cant have as many tabs as pocket plus, and you cant add more than one plugin. In fact I found that if you install SPB Mobile Shell and remove it from your home screen, that pocket plus allows you to add many of the unique Mobile Shell tabs but with more customisation such as adding additional content to the tab.
I quite like the quick screen you get while switching on from standby but it doesn't always work and seems to argue with the homescreen about who opens up, also it would have been great if you could literally have this screen as a homescreen. Rather than having a hybrid of the two.
Im dissapointed, I think there are much better innovations being made to homescreen customisation that this, and it looks very little different from SPB MS 1.0.
a bit bum then really.
See the long running thread in the general section.
Redundant thread, killed...
This thread is for discussion among those of us TD2 users who have dumped, or might dump, TF3D in favour of either another Today screen replacement or the stock WinMo 6.1 Today screen.
Thus far I'm finding the TD2 a hell of a lot more usable without TF3D. Little things like being able to use a lock password with a 15 minute delay, getting auto-Capitalization when writing texts are good, along with a much faster phone, much less memory usage and....it even seems I'm getting better battery life.
Most of the bugs people are reporting are actually TF3D issues which are resolved by ditching TF3D.
So has anyone else taken the plunge and gone back to the standard WinMo6.1?
I used to installed Ultimate Launch then Spb Mobile Shell in my original Diamond. Now I am using TF3D in my Diamond2. I wish Mobile Shell 3 may upload a more bug free version for the new device such as HD and Diamond2 and I may switch back to Mobile Shell. Perhaps WM6.5 release may change my plan and look forward to what HTC still put their manila on top of those WM6.5 device.
As I said, the thread is for people who are NOT using TF3D.
Personally I think WM6.5 will render TF3D completely redundant by handling the one thing it's good at - gloss.
Another thing I've noticed about not using TF3D is that the phone's response to tilting it to landscape and back is a lot faster.
My case as well: I've got the feeling that TF3D is more like a heavy bag.
As soon as I deactivated, the phone became easier to be handled and plus, presenting extra memory/battery resources as well.
However, a Launcher is very much needed, since neither the TF3D, nor the WM's Today screen don't offer the possibility to get to your action choice with only one button-tap.
Is there a good free launcher which can do that?
cheers!
I'm finding judicious use of which apps you put into the Start Menu helps a lot - the apps I use on a daily basis are all there, others I can get to via their presence on the Today screen, such as Tomtom.
The start menu seems to appear quicker than the TF3D one does as well.
Another thing I'm liking is the Today plugin for the RSS reader - TF3D2 didn't seem to handle RSS alerts well, when you acknowledged them it didn't take you into the RSS reader.
Best of all though is the fact I can now password protect my phone properly and delay it for 15 mins so I'm not badgered for the password all the time.
I'm finding that I don't need the stylus much either, despite the smaller menus and so on.
I just can't get over the extended battery life and improved memory usage though!
Without TF3D and three apps running (calendar, contacts and file explorer) my memory is loaded only 38%.
With TF3D it never went under 50%.
As for the battery, I can only say that it seems that lasts longer, but I didn't really seriously monitor it.
I was using PointUI Home2 free version on my Diamond, it's great. Less memory usage, and huge customisability. I had 5 "tabs" with the homescreen (see attachment) calendar & tasks, comms, stock, and weather. Worked great.
The default Home2 theme is a little mucky, but there is a huge range of alternative themes. I made a nice black one that suits the diamond.
If I get rid of TF3D then
- can I alter by normal threaded SMS for to show more than 1 line that I have typed in my new reply (like TF3D does)?
- can I still create push internet sites without TF3D?
- will the hardware button for program files still work? Will this take me to the same screen?
Can I exit TF3D without disabeling it just to check out how things look?
I have disabled and tweaked so much of TF3D that I am also thinking that it is going to be off my device with the 6.5 ROM anyway .... why not do it now.

Assuming you mean the flag button, yes it still brings up the Start Menu, but you'll get the normal WM6.1 one, which contains your most recently used apps, your seven favourite apps you've selected to appear on the menu, a shortcut to Settings and a shortcut to all your Programs.

Just go into All Settings, Personal, Today and uncheck the TF3D box to turn TF3D off. Give it a few days of usage before you make your mind up. Don't forget to turn on and customize the other Today screen plugins to get the full experience.

My thoughts entirely. In a couple of months' time TF3D will be completely redundant anyway.
Incidentally, I've started getting right into Today screen plugins...TodayAgenda is frankly the best app on my phone. I use the Todo (Tasks) app more than any other app on my phone. TodayAgenda allows you to have your task list (with only the active tasks showing, huzzah!) right there on your today screen, so you don't even need to unlock your phone to see what you need to do next! And you can complete tasks and create new ones right there on the Today screen. It's awesome and I can see this becoming my new most-used widget.
Just this one plugin renders TF3D utterly redundant as far as I'm concerned!
The RSS reader has a plugin too, which is really useful.
Does anyone else have good suggestions for really useful Today plugins? I tried PointUI Home2 but that's more of a replacement than a plugin.
Hi Jim,
By TodayAgenda you mean the calendar inputs shown in the Today screen?
If this is so, I'm a little disapointed because it shows only the next one, not the next week ones, let's say...
Is there a way to have more than one event listed?
thanks

No I'm talking about TodayAgenda - it's a plugin, you have to download and install it. It lets you look as far ahead as you like and does both Todos and Calendat entries (although I only use it for Todos).
Also, try WMP Status 1.0, it shows you on the today screen the artist, album, track and track number that you're currently playing in Media Player. Very useful as you don't need to unlock your phone to see what you're listening to!

No problem. Check out WMP Status 1.0 as well, it's really useful when you're listening to music!
Ok, since I droped TF3D, I also dropped the phone dialer skin, leaving the WM one, which is fine for me but apparently it has a bug:
it doesn't show me the calls&contacts, in its scroll-down field, even though there is some information present, because if I tap, it opens the call's details window.
In other words, it's like a list on which the items have the same font color like the list's background.
Did anybody experienced the same?
Is it possible that another dialer skin would change this behavior?
I put Phonealarm and today agenda straight on my phone and removed TF3D its just too restricting. I can get to everything i need with one click on the home screen none of this swishing fingers to get to stuff.
I really don't know what some of yoy are complaining about...
Not Capitalizing the first letter... NONSENS, when i write a SMS the first letter of a sentence is capitalized..
Memory consumption.......
Why do you think this device has so much ???? Because HTC wants you to run TF3D and still have more then enough memory free to run Whatever app......
I was sceptical at first too. But if you give it a chance you will see that once you have seen every screen (without a reboot) it's VERY fast, and very comfortable...
I am sure i will keep TF3D for a while !

I used to run 2 Today pages using Second Today.
Weather (SPB Traveller) , CLauncher and SPB Phone (can't beat the options here) on the 1st Today. SPB Diary full screen on the other (2nd) Today.
Custom links to Internet and GPS Navigation complete the productive config.
I travel for business. Calendar and Contacts and the most important.
TF3D Calendar can't make top 20 on market I would say. Contacts in TF3D are death by scrolling (by default). The new D2 Dialer is more productive for contacts than any of the TF3D contacts screens!
I agree that all these other UIs that don't allow Today plugins are missing the point. People want to pay for and use specialist programs where certain functionality is important to them.

With a WVGA screen, I really wish there were a work around to be able to place more than 7 apps in the start menu. Can't believe I've never found a hack for this.
Alternatively, I love to be able to route the start button to the All Programs folder but never been able to find this either. Two simple things that must not be easy or else we would have seen them before.
BTW, I unchecked TF3D within 24hrs (a month ago). I use SPB Mobile Shell for the shell. For the today screen (WM 6.1) I use Today Agenda, Google Search, Elecont Weather (paid) or WeatherBugDirect (free). I also run all my tasks and appointments from the traditional today screen via TodayAgenda.
This Right Here Is Revolutionary!!
Have you ever been out and about, and checked your task manager and saw that Activesync has started up randomly, and is running in the background sucking down your battery?
Then this is just the program that you need!
ASKicker is just a few different simple scripts that I molded together.
What does this do?
Well basically this program scans a registry location on your phone that tells your phone whether you have a USB cable plugged in or not.
Based off of that information, if you do not have the USB cable plugged in, then the script will close out of ActiveSync everytime it runs. When you plug in the USB cable (Or place the phone on a dock), ASKicker will then open ActiveSync and wait for you to unplug the phone from the USB cable so it can kill ActiveSync from running.
This should not affect push mail. I do not have nor use push mail, so everyone that uses it, please give me feedback if it does affect it. But according to everything I've read online about Activesync and push mail, ASKicker shouldn't bother it at all. Infact, that's part of the main reasons why I've created this solution.
What are the requirements?
Only two things are needed:
First and foremost you'll need this registry location:
HKLM\Software\OEM\USB
"Cable_In" "0"=No "1"=Yes
(My Vogue and TouchPro Have This,
So I'm Sure Most Of PPCs Have This!)
Secondly you'll need Mortscript.
You can get a copy of this
and the manual and a few examples
at the Download Link in my FAQ(Link In Signature).
Tested On:
* Touch Pro (CDMA) - Working
* Vogue (CDMA) - WorkingNotes:
This Is Still In Beta!
There are two shortcuts that are created in the start menu.
The first one is "ASKicker"
This shortcut will either start the script, or if it is already running, it will ask if you want to end the script.
The second one is "ASKicker Settings".
With this shortcut, you will be able to choose a few different things. There is an option to open the Instructions and ReadMe documents. You're also able to turn on and off the AutoOn at StartUp option(Default On). Aswell you're able to choose the amount of time that the script waits to run again, you're able to choose from either 5,10,15,20,25,and 30 seconds (Default 15).
**Please keep in mind the higher the amount of time,**
**the longer that ActiveSync could be open before the script runs again,**
**and also the longer that it could take for ActiveSync**
**to start up when you plug it into the USB.**
This is VERY light weight.
The biggest part about this program is the Instructions and ReadMe Word Documents and the Icon Dll.
Coming Soon:
Custom user input for the amount of seconds the script waits to run again.
(Currently only have a choice from the presets).
App-To-Date Support.
Better User Interface coming later.

Hey man -
Any chance you can make this into something which runs Activesync once a day or something? A lot of folks here use AS for Google Calendar, and it makes no sense to sync every 3-4 hours (which is the max allowed) when all we want is once in the morning or something. The rest of the day AS just sits there and eats our batteries.
And maybe have the functionality of syncing using GPRS and not strictly USB.
THANKS though - was really looking forward to some AS tweaks.
I don't have GPRS so I'm kind of screwed on that part.
(I have a cdma phone.)
but I can try and see if I can figure out the stuff needed for that through the internet.
Also, I think I have an idea on how to do that first part (the once a day)
when would be the best times for everyone? like midnight, one am? etc.
(I'll eventually make more times once I get the hang of it!)
fixed the initial problem. forgot to replace a file with a newer version.
woops.
Can you describe the problem this application is solving?

Do you ever look at your task manager and find that activesync start running out of no where, then this is what you need.
I'm not sure if this is more towards CDMA version of phones,
but there has been tons of posts and threads started because of this and they wanted a way to stop that from happening, well that's what this does.
it's a SMALL script that runs and stops it from hogging up your memory or wearing down your battery.
All of the fixes for this problem have eliminated push email from working,
or eliminates activesync from working on the phone period(even when connected to computer). etc.

Also, I think I have an idea on how to do that first part (the once a day)
when would be the best times for everyone? like midnight, one am? etc.
(I'll eventually make more times once I get the hang of it!)

How about 24 hours from the last time it's launched (automatic or manually)? If that's too much of a hassle, midnight is just fine.
FYI-
The way I do this right now is to choose sync every 4 hours for peak and manually for non-peak and set the peak-time as 12-1AM.
The problem still is that the rest of the day - it's eating eating eating ... battery.
For me, to get rid of ActiveSync always starting, it was enough to remove all of Notifications (with Dotfred's Task Manager) except the one for RNDIS, and setting following registry key: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\KeepAlive to 0.
Cody which version should be used on a sprint touch. I downloaded them all, but not sure which one to install on the phone.

Interesting,
does this affect your push email?

All versions can be used.
The vXXS at the end of the names mean v=version
XX-the amount of time it waits to loop the script again.
S=seconds.
so if you want it to check every ten seconds get the v10s,
every twenty seconds get v20s,
and so on.
Battery consumption with AS

There is some debate about how much resources AS uses when running in the background. Some say practically none. It just seems reasonable that ANY program (including ASKicker) will consume SOME resources (memory/battery).
I did some tests on my Tilt using the Battery Guard program to measure the battery drain at any particular time.
According to those measurements, AS appears to be consuming about 20mA of battery during its idle time. Your mileage may vary. See the full results here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4078369#post4078369

But then you wouldn't have meeting reminders, nor automatic updates say to your weather software, rss news, etc, right?
I would really like to get this working on my tilt.
I use codyppc personalizer which I believe uses Mortscript too.
After I installed askicker and it didnt appear to be working, I installed mortscript 4.3b2. Now (in advanced task manager) I show two processes of Mortscript.exe running, one in \program files\mortscript and one in \program files\personalizer. Is there a conflict here?
Active sync is still running. Does Mortscript have to be installed in a specific place for this to work?
Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't then.
It screwed mine all up when I did what he did.

I just replied to your message with this same exact thing.
I forgot about this thread.
I have been REALLY busy lately,
and hurt my back at work,
so I've been out of commision on here for a while.
I plan to have it finished and fixed by friday/saturday.
But it might be delayed depending on my website I have to get finished ASAP,
and I've already been put a day behind schedule with the website after I came up with the friday/saturday deadline.
So only time will tell.
Sorry it's taken so long people.
This was in hardcore beta stage when I initially released,
and had a BIG problem with my cab program and computer,
and it's just been one thing after another. haha.
so yeah, this will be done friday/saturday hopefully.
cant wait till this is fixed so I can use it on my TouchPro and Titan!!!
Active Sync Master
i couldnt sleep all night trying to figure this out. THANX ALOT!!
I thought no one wanted it, but I have been messing with a UI for it,
that way you'll be able to specify the amount of seconds between each time it runs, and a few other things and will be able to update with future components that I am working on myself.
I have about another week of summer left, so hopefully I can get my website I've been working of FOREVER(I've been going wakeboarding and going out too much). but I want to fix this sometime this week!!
Just thought I'd update you all!
Sorry I've been MIA from alot of my forums lately.
Bump!!!
This is new!!
Just got finished!!
Read all of post one before commenting please!!
