Hi I am running Ruu_Signed_Duttys_WM6.1_5.2.19700_Hybrid_V2_1_64.08.21_CubeV2 ROM.
And everytime I get an incomming text message or e-mail the backlight comes on.
This happens even after you put it into standby and none of the other buttons will wake it only the power button.
i think that is by default and if u want the phone to wake by pressing any key than u have to make that change under settings.
It should not do that, the last ROM I used did not have that issue. It may not be the ROM I would like to know if anyone else has this problem.
Hi everyone..is there really no way to disable the screen turning on when a text or e-mail comes in. When using a WM6.1 ROM, I have tried different ROMs and they all the doing the same. It seems this should be something that can be configured.
Any input from the experts...if not I will go back to WM 6.0
I didn't have it happen with L26 v4 ROM - it does with Dutty's and it does with Death v3. I have heard from others in those threads who say that it does not happen to them. Some have said that the BBCONNECT program 4.0.0.92 is the solution - I have not bothered to search for or try yet. For me , right now, the common thread seems to be AT&T based ROMs
Arghhhhh....I hate to step back into the dark ages but that issue really bugs me. Knowing that my phone is in my case and everytime and e-mail comes in the screen turns on for 10sec....that accounts for the my short battery life.....And I only want to run the ROM's from Dutty he does really great work....wish I knew half of what he does. I might be able to fix it myself...That then brings the question why certain ROM's an not others...
I will leave that question to the experts.
I think it does this because it is putting an alert notification on the screen... I disabled those on mine and they still seem to come on the screen!!
It's so annoying to have to deal with your emails and at the same time have to dismiss countless notifications!!!
Same annoying problem here.
WM 6.1, and every setting in 'sounds & notifications' fails to show results.
Whether I disable or enable the tone, the showing of a message, or the vibration.. no dice: it keeps waking up from standby mode.
i remember some else asking this question as welll... and i think someone was talking about changing something in the the registry, but i am also interested in this. it would come in handy when i have to put my phone in standby for a long time.

I too have this same issue. I've had my new ROM for several months and love it, but I would like to know how to stop the backlight from turning on everytime an email is received.
It never used to do this, however I am pretty sure the backlight always came on for new text messages.
I can deal with the text messages. However, I run blackberry connect for my work email. Having the backlight come on for each email obviously kills the battery life.
I know if can be disabled as it was before. The question is how? Is there a registry setting?
Hi,
does anybody here use PocketShield?
I experience a strange problem - time to time when I unlock my phone the whole top bar disappears. The Start button, the Close button...everything.
I can't do anything with the phone - the only solution seems to be to navigate to the programs tab (via TF3D), select All programs and run the Lock - this locks the phone again and when I unlock it then suddenly my top bar is back. It seems to be completely random.
I know that there is a forum on the developers site but I was wondering if any of the bright minds here could help me ;-)
I am running the 2.0.6.2 free version.
I will try to post it to the official forum as well.
Cheers.

Mine locks up when Gyrator2 tries to rotate the screen on incoming calls. Really annoying. I want to be able to rotate my screen in most programs, but it always seems to screw up my incoming calls and creates more lag...I'm gonna try to go back to sensorlock instead of pocketshield...
I will try to post it to the official forum as well.

I had to same problem. I had Gyrator2 running which rotated the screen and screwed up Pocketshield screen.
I put an Event in Gyrator2 to disable rotation when in PShield screen.
The Event should be the same as Manila's except application/window title is "PShield"
That fix the problem.
i get odd issues as well
I agree, I get odd issues as well. I get the occassional hang, crash, missing bar etc. I uninstall pocketshield and I don't get issues. I'm using NATF 2.3 rom. I paid for it and it worked ok for a while until I noticed these intermittent problems...

I created a rule in Gyrator almost immediately after installing PS - I didn't want it to rotate the PS screen.
I left it up to Gyrator to get the window name and now my rule is set for the window #NETCF_AGL_BASE_.
But my problem is not in rotating, my problem is in unlocking (at least I think so). Anyway, will try to change the window name to PShield and see if it makes any difference.
EDIT
Nope it didn't. The top bar disappeared again during the first seconds of my testing :-(

Thank you my friend for letting me know. If this is indeed fixed I don't mind paying the $13. Will check it right now.
New version available today - but it's not working correctly. after I use the slide bars one time to ignore a call, every call after that is missing the slide bar (answer and ignore soft buttons are there though) and when caller hangs up before I take any action PS just sits there, like it's stuck. Sounds like the same problems you describe earlier.
Im using PocketShield, but I was wondering - the phone always locks after I insert the stylus (I have Touch HD), after a while PocketShield kicks in and after that if I want to unlock the device, I first have to unlock the "normal" lock and then the PocketShield. Really annying.
Is there a way to disable the lock after stylus insertion?

actually i just experience this an hour ago.. also every time I slide the keyboard to unlock my Fuze the screen freezes on the landscape mode. all keys on the keyboard besides the windows key. I hope they fix these bugs right away..
I have the same problem with the top bar disappearing. I'm not running Gyrator or anything like that. I'll try a new version when the bugs mentioned have been ironed out. It is a great product though. I do like it.
Are any of these being posted in the PocketSheild forum? They need to know the bugs.

yes many people posted on the pocketshield forums with same issues...
i dont know if anyone else is having this issue... but
i seems that when slide to answer is activated PSPP some calls get answered automatically... and it takes me to the "talking" screen immediately.
any help on this issue would be super!
I'm having other issues with PocketShield. I didn't have this same problem with version 2.0.6.3, but with version 2.1 I started to have problems with my alarm notification. When the alarm goes off, it just quickly vibrates once and just stops if it's in a locked state. Also, I noticed a heavy battery drain issue--the battery charge would drop about 10% each hour. Once I uninstalled it, the problems with the alarm and battery drain stopped.
Even with the new version (2.1.0.1) I still have problems answering phone calls. I'll slide to answer and the phone just keeps ringing. I hit the "Send" key and nothing happens. I hit the "Answer" soft key and still nothing....
Anyone else still see these problems?
I have a different issue, when phone is not locked and I have an incoming phone call, pocket shield kicks in and shows me "lock screen" where I have to slide to unlock the device and only then I get the standard "Incoming call" screen...
v2.1.0.1
Major Problems
Well I was gonna pay for it but their payment server seems to be phishing site. Also it crashed SQB and when I uninstalled it, the program removed my outlook email account. Sorry but looks like malicious program so going back to an old sensor lock. I did like the software interface but Paypal confirmed me, so I shouldn't need to give you my personal information to pay for the software. No shipping means I am not giving you my phone number and address, etc. Sorry too many questionable things going on for a screen lock... rule is KISS and since this programmer isn't doing that then dump it off my device is my rule.

Hi all.
I have discovered a problem with an X1.
When recieving a SMS, It will not display I have a new text message...or sms icon on the top title bar.
However, If I go into the messaging.. I will find.. that i have indeed had a new text.
sometimes.. i can check my phone front screen many times..and then only if i go into messaging, will i see the text has actually come ages ago..but no notifications on homescreen or titlebar...but once into messaging... it will show...in blue.. one new sms.
It the stock r3a rom..and no hardspl/anything else installed or on.
I have hard reset, and tried it with zero apps installed...however, it still does it.
Anyone else come across this issue? or more so.. a fix?
Same thing here
I also experienced the same problem. So, if i received a message, but i don't wake my phone, it wont give any sound or any notification. But if i wake it up, there will be a notification about it, although it was sent an hour ago.
Has anyone find the solution for this?
THx
I had a problem a while ago in which the the notifier in Xperia panel would say I have new messages but when I open the message-inbox there's nothing there. So I only recieved texts 10% of the time, very very annoying and I had T-Mobile send it back because it wouldn't work properly even after using SE update service.
Seems like nobody reading this post. LOL
Or nobody has the same problem...
Is everyone experiencing this problem using T-Mobile?
Maybe this is the issue?
Maybe some app you installed is causing the problem. My notifications are working fine and Voice Command even reads them. I have the new Christian WM6.5.

Stock Rom
nothing installed at all. It has just been to SE for repair on Keyboard sticking issue... keys would re-repeat..and have to really depress the space bar.
This is now resolved...but the SMS notification issue still exists.
I wondered if those others suffering also... had A T-Mobile sim.?
Mine is a Generic_UK device and was purchased outright for £500 from expansys...and has not been flashed in anyway except official upgrades. (work device... my personal device is flashed more times than i would care to admit.)
For what it's worth, my boyfriend has the same problem, and he's on AT&T.

Why is it we are having multiple problems with this issue... and no one really has ever addressed it?
Seems to be an issue that is fundamental to a phone nowadays..
I once had the problem that indeed the notification popped up but the message was not stored in the sms directory. Anyway, installing a new rilphone and radio solved that problem for me. Why don't you try different rilphones or radio if you did not already?
Sorry that I can't really help here...
Hello,
I've been having a problem with a few of the custom builds (Timor, AthineOS, CellPro Evo), and one problem I've noticed with each of the ones I've used is that when I get a text it doesn't notify until I wake the screen back up. Once I do that it vibrates and rings, but its up 30min after I got the text. Is this a known problem with a fix or am I better off sticking with a stock ROM?
Thank You
Funny you mention this, because I'm having the same problem. I thought it may have been a tweak I'd done and was going to do a hard reset today.
The only cab I've installed is Microsoft MyPhone. And had to edit the reg to allow the changing of the notification light timing in the Sounds & Notifications settings.
Do you know if this happens before you've made any changes to settings or installed any software on the phone? I don't recall having any problems like that myself with Timor installed, but I'm also not sure I received a text in that time. I haven't tried the other ROMs you listed.
It seemed to happen after I edited the reg settings.
Doesn't seem to be a constant occurance though. I happened to me 12 hours ago, even after a soft reset. But now I just sent a test message to myself, and all is ok... weird
Well I've regularly installed My Phone, Marketplace, Bing, Groovefish, and MP3 Trimmer, but I'd rather not delete and hard reset everything to do a test if someone knows a fix
I haven't had this issue...I am using the Valkrie Firestorm 5 and even when my phone is sleeping my phone vibrates as I get SMS messages and emails...
Well I have hard reset and held off installing using the My Phone. Everything seems well with recieving on time...but now the screen turns on everytime i get a message. It didn't used to do that and I find it quite annoying..I looked around my settings and Advanced Config and couldn't find anything.
It happens in the stock HTC rom too.
It normally doesn't happen if you come out of the text messages and go back to the home screen after you reply to someone. It's a really annoying bug
Me too...
I thought it was the result of all the hacking, tweaking and breaking I've been doing on this flash since I've been using it as a "scratch pad" but the problem you are all describing sounds identical.
I will also second the Home screen suggestion. Hit 'End' after you are done messing with the phone to go back to the Home screen. There is definitely a notification bug related to not alarming/vibrating when not on Home screen.
Though I have observed this issue, this does not completely explain my problems. Sometimes I don't actually even receive the SMS or MMS until the next day or after rebooting my phone! Most of the time it's fine though. I'm going to do a clean flash and see if that gets rid of that issue.
Same Here
I have run across the same problem with a number of the cooked ROMs. I never really noticed the problem with the stock ROM though. In my experience some of the cooked ROMs are having a problem handling the text messaging. I have over 3000 text msgs in my backup and as soon as I try to view an older text, the systems tend to lag and freeze up to the point that I need to soft-reset. Im using Athine right now and so far it has handled the text msging just fine without freeze or lag, but it also seems to have the same notification delay bug that the other ROMs have.

Yeah I'm familiar with that bug. But I go back to the home screen 99% of the time then shut the screen. I'll get a message and the LED will start blinking, but only when I turn the screen back on will it ring and vibrate.
Same problem here with the cell pro rom

I have the problem with almost all of the ROM. Does anyone know if it could be a result of not using the right radio?
I could be wrong.. but I don't think it has anything to do with the radio. There doesn't seem to be any problem is receiving the message from the carrier, it's more-so the OS not notifying. This has only happened to me since trying the new WM 6.5.5 builds with Sense 2.5. Previous to these builds I have never had any issues, and only used EnergyROM with a COM2 build, and Sense 2.1

Im not sure about all the technical stuff your talking about...I just know that on almost every ROM I flash, when the phone goes to sleep, they seem to not do anything. Its only when I wake it up do I receive text messages, notifications and the weather doesnt update on its own in the prescribed time its supposed to according to the settings I have selected.
The radio version may affect the quality of your reception. So if you have no reception then that will obviously delay texts getting through, and stop you being able to get to the weather servers. But I can't see why it should have anything to do with delayed notification of texts that are already on your phone.
I realise this might not help you much, but on my EnergyROM (see my signature for full details), my phone gets texts fine when it's asleep.
The weather isn't designed to get automatically updated when your phone is asleep though. There was a recent thread on how to change the registry to make it do so, if you haven't done that then your weather stuff may well be acting correctly.

WHY DONT YOU JUST USE A ENERGYROM????? I dont have any issues with those roms and i just updated to the .88 radio. no issues as of yet.
Hi folks,
i cant really explain it better in the title, sorry for that.
Sometimes my phone acts pretty weird.
If it's in standby-mode and i press the Power-OFF/ON button to awake it, it takes like an eternity for the phone to actually wake up.
Same goes for the Home-Button at the center.
When there is an incoming call and i anwer it, i cant "close" the call by myself, because i simply cannot access the menu once the phone is in standby-mode when talking longer than 20 secs.
The strangest thing happens when I call somebody else: i cannot close that call e.g. when nobody answers, i have to push home-Button or On/Off-Button a thousand times in order to get a short response from my phone where i see the dialer menu for like 2 seconds...
Somebody got an idea?
P.S.: Is it normal that LauncherPro-Background is bugged in Gingerbread-ROMs? It sometimes shows a black background while only the dock shows the part of the background i actually set.
Regards.
Aww i really want to get these problems solved :/
I'd realy like a solution on that aswell, it's very anoying
Well the launcherpro bug is because ram memory is full and launcherpro needs to reload himself. I don't have the first problem on cm7, which rom do you use?
I was on Darkys 9.5 extreme edition when this problem occured. In addition to that problem also occured when i was on a doc rom - irealy have no clue why.
I am currently on Darkys 10.1 but couldnt test if the bug ia still there when calling or answering a call.
