Since Build 23017...When I start my blackstone...in background pops up a window which appears as "Message" in the taskmanager. I can't see what it is, because wm home or manila is in front of it. But before I can use the phone I always have to press the "X" button. This happens with every phone start...what can I do to solve this issue? Any Ideas? Is there a registry entry to avoid this window?
after a reboot, i wait it out for a minute or so.
Change this setting in BootLoader Pkg
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\TMail]
"Module"="\\Windows\\tmail.exe"
"CmdLine"="-RunInBKG"
I think it is required for periodic mail check and push mail to work.

It is still there it just runs in background. Your right if you remove the entry you might have problems.
I think it's caused by windows live set to push mail. No real biggie for me as it only pops up now and again and doesn't cause any problems.
I checked the reg entries and for me it works fine!!! Thanks!!!

For some reason my mail icon on the HTC home screen occasionally launches SMS/MMS. It seems to happen only after I launch SMS using the text message button. Is there a way to make the mail icon permanently launch Outlook, and the text message icon permanently launch SMS, like it should work? Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I have found a solution!!!
1 - Make sure the "E-Mail Sample" account is deleted out of your accounts.
*** NOTE: If you don't delete this account first, this fix won't work! Changing the registry key below won't work. The only thing you can do is hard reset. I found that out the hard way. At least that's how it worked for me.
2 - Make sure Outlook is set up to check your mail
3 - Using a registry editor, go to HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Home, and change "AlwaysOpenMailFolder" from 1 to 0.
Using the above solution, the Outlook icon should ALWAYS open Outlook, and the SMS icon should ALWAYS open SMS.
I had this issue when I disabled "Display account picker when opening Messaging".
If this is disabled I would suggest enabling it and seeing if you still have this problem, although I didn't suffer from this randomly occuring, mine always went through to SMS after disabling this.
The option is available in messaging under
Menu -> Tools -> Options

Yea, Ive tried that. The only problem is that if I re-enable that option, then I have to choose Outlook from the list. I just want to click the icon and go straight to Outlook e-mail.
Sorry Mike - I didn't mean to post in Kaiser Upgrading.
Anyone else have this same problem with the Outlook icon?
Same thing here
Running the HTC Rom. Does this work correctly for anyone, where you hit the Outlook button and it opens Outlook, and SMS/MMS opens the correct folder?

No, I seem to have the same issue.
I have seen this on all WM6 roms I have used on Hermes and Kaisers
So there's no way to force it to always open Outlook? There has to be a reg tweak or something. Maybe there is a way to change that icon's path so that it points to Outlook. If someone knew where that icon's path was stored, maybe we could look at it in Resco and see what it points to.
Anyone else have ideas?
I don't know how to fix it, but I can add this - it takes me to the account I last had open when I go to Messaging. So if I was last in the GMail account, that's where I land.
Yea that's true. But the design is just akward. I mean, the SMS icon ALWAYS takes you to SMS, without exception. But the Outlook icon just opens up the last messaging app you used? Weird. I need quick access to Outlook every time HTC!
Here, copy and paste this in notepad and make a new link the way you did the SMS one and it should take you to the outlook inbox. -
99#\Windows\tmail.exe -service "ActiveSync" -to "" -body ""

Great! I actually used:
99#\Windows\tmail.exe -service "ActiveSync"
because the whole thing was taking me to a new outlook message. By only using the above it takes me to the Outlook Inbox directly every time even if I had previously chosen SMS/MMS.
So, now the question is, how do I remap the Outlook icon on the home screen so that it uses this new path? Any ideas?

It's actually supposed to open a new email message, but so is the SMS one and it still only takes you to the inbox so I didn't figure it needed to be edited. Glad you figured out how to edit it though.

That I don't know, I don't even like the HTC home app so I never use it. I'm guessing it has an xml file somewhere that if you find it you'll be able to edit the icon to point to that link, but I could be wrong. Somewhere on here theres an app that will allow you to edit the look of HTC home, I think it's in the development and hacking forum in the top area of xda-devs (hopefully you understand where I mean) and you might try asking the developer of that app if he could help you change that, or at least tell you where you can change it and how to do it.
Yea, I messaged the developer and haven't heard back. Anyone have any other ideas on this?

jackjohnson or xeno1: Can a similar approach be used to get a "single click" shortcut on the today screen that opens a new, blank SMS? If so please provide just a bit more detail. I tried the procedure above just to see if I could get it to work and nothing I tried did anything. Thanks in advance.

I'm honestly not sure, but have you tried something like this?:
99#\Windows\tmail.exe -service "SMS" -to "" -body ""
or
99#\Windows\tmail.exe -service "MMS" -to "" -body ""
or some variation thereof?
No

Thanks for the tip. I have not tried it as I am unsure of the basic method. Do I copy an existing shortcut .lnk file and edit the location it goes to or do I make a text file with this content and then rename the file and extension.

You could do that. I personally just make a text file with this information in Notepad. Make sure to choose "Save As Type: All Files", and for the filename, make sure you end it with ".lnk". Then copy that file to your PPC (usually to "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\" - which will show up in the programs list). From there, just tap it once and it should run.
Since you're a noob at shortcuts (as I am too), you may want to create a test shortcut that you KNOW works, like the one I made:
99#\Windows\tmail.exe -service "ActiveSync"
That should launch Outlook. This will just give you a feel for whether or not you've got the shortcut thing down. Once that works, you know you're doing it right. I only say to do this because if your shortcut is invalid, it usually won't do anything when you click it (no errors, nothing), so it's hard to tell if you got it wrong.
Also, I just did a search. I haven't looked at all these threads, but have you guys seen them? They are all related to SMS shortcuts. They may be able to help you all:

Ok, for you SMS shortcut guys, I tested this shortcut and it works. Turns out it was:
99#\Windows\tmail.exe -service "SMS" -to ""
You can create your own shortcut, or use the one I uploaded. You can rename the file to whatever you want (the shortcut filename is how it actually appears in the menu). If you stick it in "\Windows\Start Menu\Programs", then you can add it to Start Menu using the "Menus" control panel app, and it will always be right there when you want to do a new SMS.
Hello
I have 2 little questions that bug me a little bit and which i cant find a solution for (and yes i know where the search button is located ).
Situation 1
When im at the today screen (http://www.cryptex.be/tytn2.jpg) and i press the sms icon (the one in the middle under my clock), it goes directly to the inbox of my sms messages, which is great.
Now when i press the email messages icon (the one on the left under my clock), it doesnt go to the inbox of my emails (which i would like it to do). Instead it shows the menu SMS/MMS - Email example - "my emailaccount" - New email account. So i always have to press "my emailaccount" to go to my inbox. In the options menu i already disabled the option "show account chooser when opening messages" but then i always get redirected to the inbox of my SMS messages.
So in a nutshell, i would like it to go to the appropriate inbox when selecting the icons on the today screen:
- SMS inbox when i press sms icon (which already works)
- mail inbox when i press mail icon (which doesnt work atm)
then question nr2
When im calling the screen always, disables within like 10sec or less, which is very annoying when calling your voicemail and you have to press some numeric options. I always have to turn the screen on.
Maybe someone can point me how i can keep the screen enabled ?
I solved my problems now. By searching in the registry and then hitting the words in the seach option on this forum, i found a solution to both of my problems
I've made myself a little textfile where i keep my registry tweaks now
Its very hard to look for something on forums when you dont know what you actually are looking for, so for those who also want the solution for my 2 problems:
Code:
- Launch the e-mail inbox instead of the account chooser when clicking the mail icon
* Make sure the "E-Mail Sample" account is deleted out of your accounts.
* Make sure Outlook is set up to check your mail (only if using Outlook).
* Edit the registry key HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Home\AlwaysOpenMailFolder
from "1" to "0".
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1658855
Code:
- Prevent Screen Going Off Durning a Call
* Edit the registry key HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastDormantDisplayDuringCall
from "1" to "0".
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=339309&highlight=EnableFastDormantDisplay
PS: my respect for all the people on the forum putting time and effort to make it possible to do all of this
I wonder if these tweaks could make their way into the next upgrade of Kaiser Tweak? I'm sure many people will find them both really useful.
Rob F
Woops, I've just noticed my device doesn't have a Home folder under HTCHome.
I've done a search for "AlwaysOpenMailFolder" which I don't see to have anywhere else in the registry either.
Should I create the \Home\AlwaysOpenMailFolder key and then set the value? What sort of key is it (e.g. binary, string, dword)?
Many thanks
Rob F
Try this and see if that works

Just a quick note of thanks for taking the time to document the solutions that you found. I see too many threads where someone tracks down their own fix but they don't take the time to share it for posterity.
When I get a new message and press the action button to open it email/messaging closes. Then I press the email button again and my message is open.
How do I fix this or what have I done to mess it up.
OK
Any ideas
WHenever I O open "messaging" and click on a received email "messaging" closes
I reopen "messaging" and presto my email is open.
What gives.
There have been a number of posts on this, with no solution. AFAIK, it's a bug in windows mobile. Mine does it too, it definitely gets irritating but after I go thru the process you mentioned once (after a soft or hard reset), it seems to open them correctly thereafter.
have either of you tweaked the location of the email attachments Some of these tweak programs allow you store email attachmetns on SD card. Have you done this?
smittyofdhs -
Yes I do store on card, but I sue the default method, no extra tweaking.
I will undo and post results
That may have done it
May also qure why some pictures do not show in HTML in messages
so far I agree with snooginsguy.
After once it works till a soft reset.
Hello all,
Normally when I open an e-mail in Outlook on my Tilt (WM6), the beginning of the message is initially displayed and I can scroll down to see the rest of the message. I installed KaiserTweaks on my Tilt last night and tweaked to the recommended settings. Now when I open e-mails in Outlook, the font looks different (I can't find how the KaiserTweaks would have changed my Outlook font) and Outlook now opens e-mails initially displaying the middle of the message and I now need to scroll up to see the beginning of the message.
Does anyone know which particular tweak may have caused this? I looked through the explanation of all the tweaks and I can't seem to find it. It is quite annoying to now have to "scroll up" on every single outlook e-mail I open just to see the start of the messages.
Thanks!

Guys, can anybody help me with this one?
I'm running Touch-IT 12 on my Xperia but have always had the following issue.
Basically, whenever I receive a new Email message, my phone will not come out of standby to tell me. I have to bring it out of standby myself and then touch the screen in order to see the message number go up.
I have the notifications turned on and have an alert and vibration set for new Email message.
I reads somewhere to change the "AC resuming from suspend time" and "Battery resuming from suspend time" from 1 second to 60 seconds. Done this and after a soft reset, still no joy.
Can someone help with this VERY annoying problem? All I want is to be told when I get an Email! Any help would be very much appreciated.
Regards
Sonny

Nope, still no joy.
Also, I've now noticed that if I get a new message on the phone, but don't go into my inbox, when I receive another new message, I will get the notification.
Very strange. I thought it may be down to doing a send/receive in Outlook rather than Live, but still no difference.
Very weird and so so annoying.

I don't have push email. I'm talking about Windows Live sync being set to update whenever a new message is received.
Works fine in pulling the message, just won't sound the message tone or vibrate.
Work Around
Okay, after a lot of testing I've found a work around for my problem, not really a fix.
If I go into one of my other inboxes before going into standby, the notifications work fine.
If the last inbox I went into was Hotmail, then the notification won't work. If I move over to the Outlook inbox or SMS/MMS inbox, and then do whatever I like (except go back into the Hotmail inbox), the notifications work fine.
Not sure if anyone else has this problem. If so, I hope this helps for you too.
Again, this is when setting Windows Live to sync whenever a new message is received. The results seem as good as push email to me.

Sonny
One question: Do you close your inbox properly or do you just press the OK Button?

I close it properly, ie press the X in the corner.
That being said, just tested the other possibility... not closing it properly and just pressing okay. With this leaving Hotmail running in the bakground, it works!
So we've come to the conclusion that minimizing Hotmail by pressing OK works and going into another inbox and properly closing messaging works also!
We're getting somewhere..!
Now only if there was a way to close Hotmail properly and not have to go into another inbox to have the notifications work!

That's strange, I had expected the opposite... Perhaps there is a problem with the "wakeup" of tmail.exe... But I really have no idea how to fix this. Isuppose you have tried Softreset?
Ha ha! Tried very many soft resets!
I've had this issue with all of the custom roms I've used (all Itje's). Not sure if it's the roms, or the phone.
Oh well, at least I have a work around for it now. Better than nothing.
hey, i consatntly receive error page of ocurring with my tmail.exe.
what is tat and why is it appearing? what is happening?
i still cannot get mail notification at all..........
Now I have an issue with the notifications engine, but the reverse!
I use Manila which reflects perfectly new emails on the email icon in the slider tab, so I don't want the envelope to appear on the bar at the top. I've disabled all notifications for email (activesync), and of course the little envelope still appears.
It also remains there with a logic I haven't been able to define, even after opening the email, so I find myself going into the notifications screen to "dismiss all".
Would anybody know how to definitively stop the notification appearing at the top of the screen in the first place?
oh. wat i wan is opposite of urs.
any1 care to help?
