Hi,
Couple of things:-
Anybody having slow ring problems, im starting to miss allot of calls!! When doing some testing the diamond doesn't start to ring until the 3/4 ring as the caller, then it rings twice, but by then it's been 6 rings and it goes to answerphone!!! The send and circle light start straight away, but the screen slowly changes and only starts ringing when the number is displayed etc. Fix??!!
Also Activesync, I have constant connection back to an exchange server. I seem to never hear the new email sound when the phone is asleep, but when i wake it up emails drop in. Is the power saving stopping this? My TyTN II didn't have an issue.
Thanks
SMS also have the issue that by default it does not wake up the device from standby:
Wake Up on New SMS --> HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL : DisableSMSWakeUpEvent <-- set to "1" by default. Change value to "0"
Fixes that... is there a registry entry for emails too?

Hi guys,
I have a strange problem with the TYTN II. I put it to vibration using the HTC home ant it is OK, vibrating when somebody calls. Then suddenly, without me changing anything, it starts ringing as if I changed it to "Normal" profile. When I look at the HTC home I see it still has the "Vibrate" profile selected. I have to press on the "Vibrate" again to make it go to vibration again.
This strange thing happens randomly (or at least I cannot find what causes it), sometimes when I have used the phone, and sometimes even when I haven't.
Any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks.

Have you gone to Settings>Phone and set the Ring type to "vibrate and ring"?
You can also use Settings>Sounds & Notifications>Notifications and set "Phone: Incoming call" to "Vibrate and ring"
Hope this helps
Yes, I have all the settings. I change between the "Vibrate" and "Normal" profiles when I am in meetings (vibrate only) or generally (normal, ring + vibrate). The problem is that when I set the vibrate profile, the phone automatically rings sometimes, with sound, which I don't want in a meeting.
reminders?
This problem has just started to appear on my Kaiser. It seems to show up after a reminder appears. I have turned off all sounds and reminders except calendar reminders but vibrate still gets changed to ringing. I have also used Kaiser Tweak to change the defaults.
I don't what triggered this but it seemed to start when I uninstalled FlexMail 4 and then installed Flexmail 2007 but that may be coincidence.
A real problem in meetings or in a hearing where an official can really get upset over a ringing phone.
I still don't have a solution. I don't use FlexMail (any version) so I don't think this is the problem. It could be the calendar but I have not found any connection yet.
Work around
This is by no means perfect but it will prevent embarassing moments. Try recording a "silent" ring tone and using that for your ringer. Then all you miss are phone calls. They, of course, go to voice mail.
I had a similar issue, however it was in reverse, by once choosing the automatic profile in the HTC home.
Basically the automatic feature remains active after selecting it once, so after the reminder, even if it doesn't have time if your next block of time happens to be "free" it will revert it back to ringing.
Unfortunately I never found a solution and now have a new Kaiser, which I have avoided selecting it since getting the phone.
bluetooth too
Yesterday while on a call using a handsfree bluetooth device, a calendar reminder popped up and my bluetooth connection was dropped simultaneously. The call was not dropped and I was able to turn on the handfree connection again using the menu.
Which has led me to search for these type of problems. I found a thread that addresses a way to turn off push mail notifications. I understand the same "fix" works with calendar notifications.

Here is a thread on notifications.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330872
I am now sure that the problem is connected with the calendar. It appears when I make some changes in an event (not always but in about 90% of the cases). I am synchronizing with Outlook and I think the problem appears when I change an event that was already synchronized. By "changing" I mean even dismissing the alarm when it goes off.
Any ideas what I could do?
Hi all,
Running my Orange UK (unlocked and on T-mobile) with Duttys 6.1 ROM and radio 1.64.08.21 and seem to have an issue when answering incoming calls.
I'm sure I've seen this reported elsewhere but can't find it for the life of me now!
When I recieve an incoming call and press the green answer button, there is about a 2 second delay before the call is connected. If you're not quick, TM voicemail takes the call. Seems to be a second of ringing on the calling handset before it starts ringing on the TYTN 2 as well.
Can someone confirm that I have seen this reported elsewhere and post a link or suggest if this is a ROM issue, radio issue or general Kaiser issue?
Only kept the orange rom for about 48 hours and went straight to Duttys so cant really recall if it happened on the orange rom.
Many thanks guys!
Not exactly the same problem, but I have a similar issue on my Tilt with my bluetooth headset. I press the headset button to answer and don't hear anything for about 1.5 seconds. Usually, the person calling is saying "hello? hello?" by the time I actually get connected.
The headset (Plantronics 510) works great for everything else.
Have you tried the following. I've seen this help some people including myself.
Start > Settings > Phone > Services Tab .. Highlight Call Forwarding and hit Get Settings ..
Forward phone calls only if: Forward After: there is a drop down box that some providers allow you to set the time before the call goes to viocemail. (5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 seconds) .. I think default was 20 on my phone/provider.
If your network provider doesn't allow changes from your phone you might have to call their customer service and request they manually change the network settings for you.
Same problem here as well! Same Rom (Dutty's), same network (Orange).
And I've only flashed last week and was on the standard Orange Rom before and there wasn't a delay. Any help is appreciated as this is a right pain.
I've changed to 30 seconds before diverting to the answerphone - so thanks for that response at least.

Had no idea that screen was there... Thanks! I've changed my call forward to 25 seconds, 'cause I had always felt it was going to vms too quickly.

I had this issue myself with Dutty's V4 RTM (WM 6.0) rom. Pressing the Green button would result in a 2 second delay in being able to answer the phone, but if I used the left soft key to answer, there was no delay.
Same problem here. T-Mobile vanilla ROM. Can take up to 5 seconds for the call to reach my earpiece.
Solved it!
I had seen elsewhere that turning off the kepad sounds and turning off smart dialing could help, but I can't find a smart dialing option in the phone options.
Just tried switching the the Windows dialler rather than HTC and turning off auto Audio record on the Resco recorder which I had forgotten about.
After bit of playing, it appears (quite obviously now) to be the Audio recorder!
Used to use this on my wizard without any notable problems, but seems to be an issue on the Kaiser. It answers and hangs up in an instant now
A bit specific, but if any of you guys have this kind of thing installled and configured, try turning it off?!
Thanks for the replies and suggestions and hope you get it sorted too!
I don't have Resco audio installed and it only happens occasionally but when it does it usually happens a few times in a row.
Sometimes I also get the ringtone coming through the BT headset while the kaiser sputters into life. Then a 2 second delay
before the BT headset beeps and the caller can hear me.
Occasionally, I can hear the caller at the same time as I can hear the ringtone. Just another 'feature' I guess.
"If you're not quick, TM voicemail takes the call"
There's usually a few seconds delay between 'hearing' the other phone ring and it actually ringing. Can be up to 5 seconds.
some default ring tones are timed 3+ seconds apart. Choose the wrong ring tone and ring tone type (increasing volume) and
it's possible to miss the first 2 rings which, if the answer after x seconds delay is set to 20 seconds gives someone about
5 seconds to answer the phone or miss the call. My GF suffered 'missed call syndrome' after fiddling with her Hermes.
You can adjust the voice mail answer after x seconds time in start/settings/phone/services/call forwarding/get settings
Forward calls only if [no answer should be ticked]
Drop down menu Forward after ..
Mine is set to 30 seconds.
Has anyone else seen an issue with the ATT Tilt where it will vibrate to indicate an incoming call or email and lock up (still vibrating) until the user either removes the battery or the battery just dies and the unit resets? I work for an organization and have had two different units do this on multiple occasions. The second one was recently RMA'd and replaced and has only been back in service a few days. We are running the factory ROM which may be part of the problem, but I hate to send these guys out with anything experimental. Any help/advice/co-misery would be appreciated.
Cant say this is something i have come across with my many ROM's flashed onto the kaiser. Sounds like just a bit of bad luck to me

Have not seen this reported for a while now, but see here:

You may want to consider changing the vibrate ring string to avoid the third vibrate that appears to cause the lockup.
Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics
If you would like more control over how your device rings/vibrates/flashes its LEDs on events, you can can change the Script values of these events. For example, for an incoming call performing 'activate device, play ringtone, wait 3 seconds, repeat':
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "apw3r" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
For performing 'active device, set volume to 33%, play ringtone, set volume to 67%, play ringtone, set volume to 100%, play ringtone (no repeat)':
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "ac33pc67pc100p" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
The following are the full codes available to you. Please note that all the codes are executed simultaneously except after a ringtone play / wait code. E.g. 'v1p' will vibrate and play at the same time, while vibrating for 1 second. But 'pv1' will play the ringtone through all the way first, then start vibrating for 1 second.
a = activate device
cN = set volume to N in percentage max volume
fN = flash notification LED for N seconds
p = play ringtone. Note that this will play the ringtone all the way through before continuing with the next code.
r = repeat. Note that this should be the last code in your Script string, if used at all.
vN = vibrate for N seconds
v0 will vibrate continuously;
v3 will vibrate for 3 seconds;
v3p will vibrate for 3 seconds, then play the ringtone;
v0p will vibrate and play the ringtone at the same time, and when the ringtone stops, the vibrating stops as well;
v0p3 will vibrate and play the ringtone at the same time, and stop after 3 secondwN = wait for N seconds. Note that the device will wait this long before continuing with the next code.
Some more examples
Display - a
Flash - af1w60f0
Ring - apw3r
Ring Once - ap
Increasing Ring - c50apw3c150r
Vibrate Then Ring - v3w3apw3r
Vibrate - av3w3r
Short Vibrate - av1w3r
Vibrate Long Then Ring - v3w3v3w3apw3r
Vibrate And Ring - av0pw3r
Increasing Ring And Vibrate - c50apv3w3c150r
Fast Vibrate And Flash - af1v1w1f0r
There are several notification sound settings in the registry – examples:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RoamingRing0]
"Script"="apw3r"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\KnownCallerR ing0]
"Script"="apw3r"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0]
"Sound"="\\Storage Card\\My Documents\\Trout.wma"
"Script"="av0pw3r"

Hey,
I´m having a little problem: I´ve set the phone to vibrate when an email arrives (in the sounds menue). Also the phone is set (via the buttons on the left side of the case) to only vibrate when a call or an email arrives.
The vibration alarm works when the phone is on. But if the phone is in the sleep mode (display is turned off), it doesn´t vibrate at incoming emails.
What am I doing wrong here?
Secondly I´d like to know if there´s a way to e.g. let the phone only vibrate on system events and to let it actually ring, when a call is incoming.
As far as I can see, I can only set it to vibrate in both cases.
Thanks for your hints,
Thilo
Ok, Question #1 is solved:
is seems that the phone/os can only execute one option at a time: either ring OR vibrate. Now, if you have marked both, playing a sound and vibrate, the last marked item wins.
E.g. if you first click on "playing a sound" (I don´t know what it is called exactley in the english os version) and then on vibrate, the phone vibrates when e.g. an email is received and vice versa.
But how about the two different settings for "System" and "Ringing"? Is it possible to set "System" to vibrate and "Ringing" to a certain volume level? I talk about doing this with the volume up and down buttons?
so long,
Thilo
This is a workaround for getting missed call notifications in addition to SMS notifications whilst using STAMINA mode.
Note this only works for anybody who hasn't upgraded their firmware yet. Upgrading apparently "fixes" this (useful) bug and you don't get notified at all any more.
The notification LEDs only appear to stay flashing in STAMINA mode if the event occurs when screen is off. This is why SMS notification works, as an incoming SMS doesn't wake the phone. Phone calls,on the other hand, cause the screen to come on, so the notification LEDs don't remain flashing after the missed call. It's the nature of the "bug" it seems.
So, missed calls have to be converted to SMS. The free app "Missed Call Messenger Lite" does this. If a call is missed it fires off an SMS. If you put your own number as the SMS destination, you send yourself an SMS which comes back shortly, time depending on how busy your network is, usually 2-5 seconds.
The problem is, if your network returns the SMS too quickly it arrives whilst the screen is still lit from the phone call. Luckily the app has a delay setting ("call log timeout" - under "Advanced Settings") which delays sending the SMS. Default is 5 secs. If you set 15 secs or longer it should work, the SMS being delayed until after the screen goes off. You need to include Missed Call Messenger in your STAMINA mode exception list,or the SMS won't get sent!.
There's one more thing you need to do. There is already an automatic entry in contacts, right at the top, called "Myself", and the bounced back SMS will be from "Me". Unfortunately you can't set the illumination for "Myself", so you have to create another contact with your own number.
You could name it "Missed Call" or similar, and if you begin it with an underscore it will end up out of the way at the bottom of the contact list. Luckily the system picks up your new contact rather than "Myself" when your own number comes in, and the LED bar flashes.
It sounds a complicated workaround but it actually works without any fuss,so you can now have phone and SMS notifications.
Just to repeat, this only works for the original firmware.
