I couldn't find anything already posted about this. Every day or so, my notification settings will clear. Specifically, the checkboxes for "Play Sound", "Display message on screen", "Flash light for", and "Vibrate" will become unchecked for every event. The listboxes for the sound file and the "flash light for X minutes" don't get reset, just the checkboxes. My ringtone settings are also unaffected.
This is driving me crazy because when it happens I won't get notified for new e-mail, text messages, or reminders until I realize it and check the boxes again. I haven't been able to figure out what causes this to happen. It's not after a soft-reset, as I can do a soft-reset and the boxes stay checked.
Has anyone else ever had this problem?
I'm using ROMeOS v3.1, Windows Mobile 6.1, OS 5.2.19214 (Build 19214.1.0.4)
TIA!

Opera 9.5 beta installed by any chance?
If so.. check the Opera forums it's a known issue. (one that drove me mad also!)
Ha! This is exactly my problem. Thank you so much.
--FCOD
Timing is everything!
I was going to search for that myself...pulled Opera beta, hope that takes
care of it. Was driving me nuts, since I get (work related) email & SMS, I'd
look at my phone and have missed messages.
Thanks!
The bug occurs when exiting Opera. When you exit, it wipes out the notification settings. I can't stand PIE, so I created a .Reg file I can run to reset my settings after I use Opera.
--FCOD
THANK YOU!
I've been trying to figure this out for quite a while. Time to revert to an older opera I suppose, and see what sound problems remain.
The annoying thing with the other diamond-leaked version is the hardware keyboard problem.. personally I can stand the notifications issue (also made myself a .reg file) better than not being able to type stuff with the keyboard.
WOW I just happened to glance this thread... THANK YOU!
i had the same problem. Found a fix here.
http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=243095
basically just create a .reg file to load after you exit opera. instructions on how to do it are in that thread.
Holy Crap! This was absolutely driving me crazy. I thought it was a radio rom issue... then I thought it was tom tom 7. I just happened to see this thread bumped up. Cheers
Excellent! I was just about to post about this too. For me it was always just settings for one notification, such as email or text messages. Also, today I noticed my backlight timeout was reset to 10 seconds instead of 5 minutes. That's only happened once. I hope not using opera fixes that, too.
How about just downloading the new Opera beta released a week ago? Notifications bug fixed in this build...
better solution
I took a punt on this one, and it seems to work... the general consensus is that this is an Opera issue... so rather than reloading reg settings, try opening Opera up then doing the settings the way you want them. Opera will then reset to those settings only, which fixes the problem...!
I tried it and it seems to work...
Let me know if it works for you.
Haha! K1sr your a genius! That works great! Thank you very much!

Hmmm... maybe not...
it seemed to work with opening and closing opera again, but after a soft reset, all my settings were blown away...
Well, not all, but the same particular setting that always gets blown away.
Damn....
So is this an Opera issue or something else...?? it's only with a soft reset that seems to effect my settings...

just download the latest official beta and be done with it
Background: the problem you are referring to only applies to the FIRST OFFICIAL BETA released late 2008. a few weeks later, a NEW OFFICIAL BETA was released which fixed EXACTLY the problem mentioned in this thread (among other problems). i'm surprised this thread has been revived in Q1 2009 when opera fixed this admittedly annoying issue back in Q4 2008 !!!

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...

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,\

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...
I"m using the Battery-Statue Today-Plugin and i started getting this notification that says that the program is freeware and i can continue to use it as long as i want. the thing is it pops-up about 5 times in a row and it has been doing it all day. Does anyone know how to disable this notification or make it not pop-up so often?
yup..i started getting it today...so ANNOYING..any way to disable it? im also using Duttys V4 rom
ha I just added a post at the end of dutty's v4 RTM 200 page thread about it happening to me today.
Me too!
Started earlier today and just uninstalled....
Anyone know of a diffrent one without the nag screen?
me too, it wouldnt leave me alone lol.
but everytime ill slide the keyboard or turn on the display it would tell me that.
check out the original BatteryStatus post

Opps, it probably not a good idea to have it inside our rom then ....
omg this battery status thing is horrible. Why did it happen to us at the same time. Weird stuff. Anyways, just hard reset and its worked for about an hour for me (so far). Otherwise it was every time i opened anything, turned the screen on, or slid the phone open.
ME TOO
Omg, me too! Just started today, does it all damn day. The link provided above, is it the same battery status in black/white that dutty always provides in his roms? Ive installed the program myself on schap's roms because he never cooks this in and the program is rainbow colored. I have a black and white theme so dutty's battery status icon is perfect, not the standard colored icon. Any help to make it like dutty's?
Hard Reset?! Talk about using an axe when a butter knife would suffice!
Ok, I am really not flaming. REALLY! Doing a hard reset for this just seems so extreme . . .
Simply reinstall it from the cab and "poof" all better. However, if it is date based (which would explain it happening on the same day) rather than based on a length of use, neither will fix it.
Anyway, we should support the latest build. Anyone have a link to find it?
Hard reset!? That just kills me!!

I reinstalled the cab (BatteryStatusExt.1.04.CAB) and even tried the beta version (BatteryStatusExt.1.04.203.beta4.CAB).
Still get the pop-up. Must be some kind of easter egg type Y2K thing that the creator put in there. I can only assume it is set for Jan 31 since it happened to all of us on the same day. I am going to uninstall it and reinstall on Feb 2 and see what happens. So far I ruined 1 spreadsheet I was working on when the popup came up and I closed it and the excel closed along with it losing my worksheet with all my typing on it. kind of pissed me off.
same here.... getting crazy... will try new version

BTW, this is on my T-Mo WING, so you guys know its not Kaiser specific.
hi have installed the new version and it seems to be ok now
It happened to mine for a day or so and today it has not happened at all... well yet... maybe its just for a limited duration? I havent done anything special to stop it and while I dl'd the latest version I have not yet installed it (waiting to flash a new ROM and get my 8gb card in)... but it seems to have stopped... *touches wood*
has anyone successfully installed the new version on a ROM like Dutty's that already had the batterystatus part of the ROM and it has successfully removed the popup?

Yeah I just got the message yesterday also...it must have popped up at least 20 times.
Mine seems to have stopped doing it now... which is a good thing as it was rather annoying...
I reinstalled the latest release and the annoying nag has gone.
I seem to be having an issue now and then when I start typing in landscape mode, the phone switches back out to the landscape home screen. I have to switch back to the app while in landscape mode in order for me to continue.
Is there a way to stop this from happening?
Thanks!
thank God i've found someone who has similar problem like me! hopefully someone can guide us how to solve this problem.. many thanks!
I get the same problem, it does it in all different programs.
yeah, but it's odd because it only happens after some time of usage. Once I restart the phone, it seems to be ok again.
Well I must say that's why I've quit using RomeOS' ROM's, I had the same issue but not on the PROVEN ROM so I'll continue to use that one...
I have this problem, too. I'm using the stock att rom. Instead of rebooting to fix, you can just disable and re-enable tf3d.
It's also worth noting that a guy I work with just got a new fuze, and he has this problem as well. He hasn't installed anything on the phone yet, so that proves it's a problem with tf3d.
How i fixed mine...
This happend to my when I tried to install a different
HTCvolumeControl.dll
Maybe your rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll
Try deleting HTCvolumeControl.dll and the rom will re-create after a restart.
If that doesn't work... maybe the rom has a bad HTCvolumeControl.dll
i have the same problem.. and i havent installed anything on my phone yet!
i have the same problem too,(i am running the stock att rom) mine switches back to portrait them back to landscape and back again a couple of time before stopping, i tried restarting a it works fine for a couple of minutes then it happens again, any help will be much appreciated
it has something to do with the customer taskbar icons, i only fixed it after removing sdkcerts, and the custom icons i had.

Thanks for sharing.. Would you mind to explain more detail?.. where is the "sdkcerts" ?
yeah, share information with us =)
I can't believe more people aren't talking about this problem. I deleted HTCvolumeControl.dll with no luck. I also uninstalled sdkcerts and even my custom icons. The problem still comes back. A second guy I work with got a fuze, and his has this problem straight out of the box. So that's 3 that I personally know of.
To clarify, the programs don't actually close, they just lose focus when the keyboard is opened, and then go into the background as the landscape menu comes to the front. Today, I noticed that opera goes to the background when I rotate my phone... the screen turns to landscape, then the task bar shows up, then it kicks back to tf3d.
Another way to test if the problem is happening is to goto the messaging tab, click to create a new message, then just open the keyboard. Sometimes I start typing, and then the phone comes up accepting the keys I'm typing. Then the landscape menu comes up on top of that.
I also changed my registry to disable landscape mode in tf3d. I thought that solved the problem (I didn't miss having the stupid landscape menu), but it still happened, only when I opened the keyboard, the phone came up. If I didn't hit any keys, it would disappear and whatever program I was in would come back. That was only slightly less annoying than before.
The past 2 days, I've been constantly testing to see if the problem was happening (restarting tf3d makes it stop for a while), and it didn't happen for 2 straight days. It started again today, and I hadn't touched my phone since I had last tested for the problem. In between that time, I received 2 emails. I didn't test before I opened the emails, but one had a link that I clicked on, and then the problem happened in Opera when I rotated the phone. So something happened when I either received the email, opened the email, or clicked the link to goto Opera.
I'm sure if we can pinpoint exactly what is causing this problem to start happening after a restart, we can fix it... or figure out some sort of workaround. So to anyone that has this problem, please post as many details as you can about what apps you were running or anything that could help determine the root cause of the problem. Only then can a fix be developed. I'm already digging all over the registry trying to find something to change that would fix this, but it's hard to fix something when you don't know what's causing the problem.
Is this only a fuze problem or are other TPs are experiencing this??
just to confirm im having the same problem on the normal version of the Touch pro (stock ROM)
a little pointer too: When you want to send an sms do the following. Start new sms, open the keyboard. Then WAIT a second (dont start typing immediately). Then start typing.
For some reason this does not seem to exit my messaging. If i start typing immediately it sometimes closes

The exact same thing happens as soon as i slide it back away. Very frustrating is the "g" rated way of describing this issue. FYI - even had this problem before any installations on a brand new device fresh out of the box.
yes.. i'm having that dialer problem too.. everytime i open my keyboard even in SMS mode or Opera, my dialer will pop-up.. very annoying...
i've also tried disable TF3D and use normal Today screen, the dialer problem and programs exit problem when opening the keyboard are still happen !!! wtf is wrong with the landscape mode??!! i've tried searching anything can be edited in registry but i'm too afraid i'm going to break my TP or cause me to hard reset

as the thread says, i'm not getting sms notification...and emails aren't coming through as well. i'm not sure if its a program thats causing it that i download. not too sure cuz i added like 8 new ones after i hard reset my phone a few days ago. i tried searchign and found HIM 2k5 and 2k6 neither of these have worked. does anyone know if there are reg edits or dll files that i can simply edit or add to fix this? most threads i've read have said that they have the problem when i guess tmail.exe closes, and when the phone is in sleep mode. but even when my phone is on, with the messaging application open, i dont get a audio or vibration alert. any i tried finding this tmail.exe to add to the exclusion list for the end key, but i dont think thats it, because it doesn't even alert when messaging is open.
anyone have any ideas, this is starting to get very frustrating

i totally forgot to mention this because i read a lot of people having problems w/ SPB, but i AM NOT running this. i should have disclosed this earlier, thanx for the reminder though.
Manilla is showing that I have 1 unread sms, when I check there is not. I click "all messages" to get to the WM inbox but there are no unread messages in there.
I have tried to go to tools and "clear SMS/MMS", this wipes all messages, and when I look in the inbox it's empty, but when i click on the "inbox"tab to show the whole sms tree I see inbox with a blue "1" in brackets. I have also tried a sof reset, with no effect.
Any of you guys come accross this before?
BTW this has only started since I recieved an SMS while TomTom was running, and I had to ignore it.
Cheers for any help you can offer
Perhaps the mail still is on the server. Try to delete the mail configuration and then configure it again.
no luck
I tried to do that, but was unable to delete the "SMS" account. I also tried inserting a SIM card from a different opperator, but this did no good either.
Hey all,
i've got the same problem since yesterday... posted it already in the topic where aqll post their problems with new WM6.5
hope someone has a solution!
I've got an official WM6.5 HTC german ROM
I'm having the same problem mate (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=579772) but now manila home screen is showing i have 2 new messages when in fact i have none. I had a good scoot in the registry but there's nowt there to reset MS's inbox (as far as i could see but then again i'm not a reg buff).
I've read elsewhere that this "new message" is a known issue in WinMo 6.5..
Hoppe there's a fix for it soon...or someone here can help us out
Cheers
Mo

For those who fixunreadcount did not work for "ghost" messages.
Try using Ceregeditor it is simple to find, works very well... I used it for my HTC pure. If you have a problem unlocking your phone, there a few threads on forums i read on how to do it. If your phones already unlocked.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\sms\Unread
Double-click on COUNT and change the number to 0 (zero). You should see the change immediately on your phone -- you don't have to do a save. If it works then save.
Worked for me instantly! Thanks to rdphoto on ppcgeeks.com, any questions on anything ill try and help, hope it works
