Alarm! - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi everyone
Does anyone use the Windows Mobile alarm on their Diamond? I use it and there doesn't seem to be an easy way to dismiss it when it goes off.
With other WM devices when the alarm goes off the bottom left soft key is the dismiss button. With TouchFlo 3D the dismiss button doesn't appear automatically, instead you have to tap the notifications area, tap the alarm symbol and then tap the dismiss button which appears.
Anyone know a way around this?
Only a minor niggle but it is winding me up first thing in the morning

I don't have that issue with my Diamond. Works jusy like any WM device.
Martin

Yeh me too. First time i used it i couldn't turn the bastard off! Not good at 6 in morning!

So are you saying that when your alarm goes off the left soft key becomes the Dismiss button?

Glad it's not just me that this took by surprise - girlfriend was not impressed

You need to go into Sounds and Notifications and tick "Display Message On Screen" under the Reminders tab For some reason it seems to be off by default?
Cheers
Simon

BTW....in case you go to Sounds & Notifications and don't see this checkbox...you have to select Reminders from the drop-down, or Alarm etc. before that checkbox appears.....might be unclear at first but it's there.

Brilliant - thanks for that!

What Reminders tab? There's no Reminder tab in Sounds and Notifications...

There are two tabs - it's not the first one called 'Sound', but the second one whatever it's called in english OS

I have two tabs "Sounds" and "Notifications" and none of them have anything about Reminder settings, nor a "Display Message On Screen" setting. No "Reminder" tab.

"Reminder" is no tab, it's an item in the dropdown list in the Notifications-Tab ... or it's called Notifications ... just go to the second tab, dropdown the list on the top and select the one that sounds like notifications
... hard to give tips with not having an english OS, so sorry for the confusing answer

Okay, found it now. Thanks for explaining. You are GOLD!

For quick mute use VolDown HW button for all kind of notification. Then you can click around in silence...

Yes, except that the alarm will then repeat again and again and again until you finally dismiss... Sorry, I'm not that patient.

Scroll wheel adjustment

Is there a way for the scroll wheel to "scroll" within rows. For instance, I have SPB Mobile Shell and Phone Alarm installed. Both apps have multiple icons in a row. I can scroll to a row, but I can't scroll along a row.
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks in advance.
i'll take the silence as a no

You might be right but it's generally considered reasonable to give it at least one if not a couple of days before bumping a thread.
So ironically, here's a free one on me!

i noticed that when i click programs or settings and use the scroll wheel it scrolls through every item in those areas. it just won't do it on the today screen.
i'll be a guinea pig. does anyone know the registry keys that govern the scroll wheel?
I am also interested in figuring this Horizontal Today Screen Wheel Scrolling...
It's a Scroll WHEEL, not a Track Ball!

Isn't this why we have a D-Pad?
How can you expect a 1-dimensional control to work in 2 dimensions?
In Schap's ROM, the scroll wheel does scroll across the HTC Home.
2-dimensions
Geez chill cushcalc. I don't think he wants the wheel to be able to scroll up/down and left/right at will. Instead I think he wants it to scroll through each item in each today plug-in, instead of just scrolling from one today plug-in to the next. I.E.- scrolling down goes from the 1st item in htc home for example, to the second, to the third, etc... and then from the last htc home item to the first item in the next today plug-in. I know, I know, there are tons of retards posting tons of uber-retarded questions on this forum, but diar is posing a valid question.

Here's a free bump. Would love to have this feature as well, cuz I'd really to have one-handed use on the PDA. Using the D-pad requires thumb gymnastics which may result in dropping the phone
Even better, if there'd be a way to switch the scroll mode from line-by-line to page-by-page in certain cases, i.e. while browsing a document, or a web page.

Batti Program

Hi all,
I recently added a battery bar program called Batti2.1. It is a really great program and i like it a lot. There is, however, one small bug...
When using the program it remaps the Calendar soft key to "Notification". Rather it does not remap it but always displays the "Notification" word. I guess this is so because it gives me a setting asking me if i want the battery indicator in the top bar (which is what i want). When i click on the notification icon it gives me detail about the battery etc. When i am done and click on hide, it goes back to saying "Notification".
When i recieve an sms or missed call, it then resets the soft key back to the original "Calender" and does not come up with the "Notification" key i usually get when i have a missed call or sms notification.
Is there a registry setting to disable the batti program's notification icon or am i stuck with this for good (so long as i have the program installed)??
Has anybody else used this program? Had this same problem? It is a really good piece of software and does not affect anything else.
Can anybody help please. I have included screenshots and attached the batti file incase anyone is interested in looking at this useful program.
yep...that happens...i remember when i used that program...get...um...damn i cant remember the name of the program i used..

Wow... that is annoying. Nice program, but I see your dilemma.
Whenever there's a notification (such as wi-fi detected), the left soft key is remapped to it. PocketPlayer does that on mine. I don't mind because I can use the today screen plugin to access the calendar.
Use VistaHide battery gauge instead.
Thanks to those who replied.
Tinkering around with the program i discovered a solution. In settings option set the following settings:
<PLEASE SEE IMAGE CAPTURE NUMBER 3 IN THE ATTACHMENTS>
I then click ok and hide the diolog box (hide button). The notifiaction and icon on the top bar are gone. However, there is a small bar right on the top of the top bar with graduations along it. This is the battery bar and each graduation represents 5%. When you tap this bar once, the notification box comes up and displays all the info. When you tap on hide, it all goes away. No more remapping.
Thanks to those who tried to help out.

Kaiser Dialpad changing to Status page

Does anybody know how to change the setting for the dialpad during a phone call? I need to have the dialpad on all the time, even during a phone call.
Thanks.

Hi,
KaiserTweak can do it:
Call -> disable both "Fast Sleep" and "Sleep" options!
Try this great application, with many other tweaks!
PS: Nex time, however, use better the forum "search" feature!!
Ciao
Thanks for your help. But I have KT installed and the first two settings are disabled. The only thing it did was solve the phone going black after 10 seconds. My dialpad is still replaced by the status page. And I need to have the dialpad up all the time.
I also check the registry settings that KT changes, and they were changed. So I don't know if this is an issue with my phone or all Kaisers.
Any registry tweak that you know?
oh, i get it........you mean the keypad dont you?

Ok, sorry, but i didn't well understand your bug, or requirement!!
What do you mean for "Status page"??
Can you post some screenshot?
Sorry, again, dude
don't need screenshots, i understand now!
But only one question: after you start a call can you tap the left softkey and show the dialpad? if so, you would like to always show the dialpad tab, and not the status page, also when the call start without pressing any key, right??

I believe this is exactly what he meant, and I for one would like to know also.
Dom; that's exactly what I meant. 99% of my calls I make through my pbx, and because of that, I need to keep inputing numbers. The fact that I need to click on the "show keypad" on every call is annoying and dangerous (when I am driving). Yes, the show key pad is on the left corner, but it would be more convenient to have it on all the time, and when and if I need the status page, I would press the show status page button.
I am sorry I was not clear on my first post.
Thanks.

I tried looking it up but only came across a GProfile by mobileSRC that changes the ringtone when you face the diamond face down?
http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=gprofile/about
To turn wifi on and off, I put a shortcut to Comm Manager in my Start menu. So I have to press the physical Windows button, then Comm Manager, then WiFi. Three presses.
Go to the settings tab in TF3D, choose communication. On the bottom there's data connection, hit the on/off button.

Hi man
I did that, of course!! Simple its not working ...
On Data conetction opens automatically configuration for the operator.
On WiFi does nothing
I tried GProfile but works fine in TD1, not satisfactory in TD2
Tell me more of your TD2 ... ROM version?
I'm using the standard NL WM6.1 ROM. Maybe a stupid question, but do you tap on the on/off button part of the bar? Tapping on the main part of the bar opens the configuration window.

I apologize, if English is not your first language, but every time I try to read this, it simply confuses me. You might need to try to reorganize your thoughts before you get a coherent answer.
First, there isn't a call button at the top of any screen I can find. There are call buttons at the bottom of several screens, mostly in the contacts apps. You need to be specific about which screen you are describing.
Total Commander is a third party application that has to be installed by an individual or cooked into a home-made ROM, so its integration into any button combination is automatically suspicious.
It almost sounds like you're talking about the Task Manager, in that you can switch between active programs using that tool. If that's what you were talking about, you should already have it. Go to Start > Settings > System (usually) > Task Manager. It usually has a white icon, and in many home-cooked ROMs there is more than one present. The one you want was written by/for HTC, not by DotFred or anyone else. Click the third tab of this app, and check Enable Quick Menu on Today screen.
