I have a 8925 running WM6.1 pro and am looking for a solution to the email notification.
I get a notification evertime the there is a "change" of the number of emails in my inbox not just when I get a new one. I have it set to only show the last 3 days and if I have one roll out at the end of 3 days it goes off.
I have tried "inbox tones" and it works fine as long as it does not go into the "sleep mode"
I have also tried SEVERAL roms but they all seem to do the same thing, since I have 3-4 email accounts it goes off ALL the time...
Thanks BikerCVG
not sure, but kaiser tweak or advance config might have what you need.

For the first week I have owned the Tilt, Xpress mail seemed to work fine. It would push every bit of mail through. I had it set up for both Yahoo and Gmail. Over the course of the following week (up to date) I have made some minor modifications to the phone, and am not sure if they're responsible for the demise of my Xpress Mail service.
What I've done so far is to install Kaiser Tweak and am using almost every advised feature (Hiding SIM contacts never sticks though. after a reset it always goes back to default). I have also downloaded Comm Manager from here, because I was having bad 3G dropouts so this comes in very handy. Outside of those things, that's about it.
But for some reason, my Tilt has been displaying some very sketchy behavior, but the worst offender at the moment is the push mail not working. Even stranger though, is that when I sent myself an email from my Gmail account to test it, rather than the mail going into the yahoo folder, it went into the Gmail folder ?
At one point last night (it's vague, I was very tired) I had to reset the Yahoo password upon request of the program because it said that it needed to be updated. So I did that, and afterward, it seemed to work again. But now, as I'm testing by sending mail to myself, nothing is happening. Well, almost nothing.. .Something peculiar happens. When I send the mail off, I notice that the Tilt's screen gets brighter, as if an event is happening. This happens about 15-20 seconds after sending an email to the Yahoo account, and happens every time, so it's not a coincidence.
I'm still within my 30 day trial for the Tilt, and I'm getting frustrated with it, thinking about getting a (gasp) iPhone or perhaps a Treo 750 if it functions any better. I really want to like the Tilt but for one thing, I am not getting any HSPA service here in NYC (where I thought I would) and 3G is piss poor where it counts, so isn't even worth it. It's why I got an unlimited data plan, but now I'm thinking about canceling it.
I got the phone on the 8th and would like to sort this out before the 30 days is up. Can anyone please assist me with this ?
Thanks,

By the way, I'm running Win Mob 6.0 and the original ATT ROM that came with it last week.
CE 5.2.1622 (build 18128.0.4.4)
And, I'm not sure that this has anything to do with it but (or is useful info) when I open the Comm Manager, the Microsoft direct push button is greyed out and is not able to be toggled. I also have 3G set to off when I'm in my house. I've tried a soft boot, but that didn't do anything. I'm about to do a hard boot now.

Now the client is really bugging out. When I go to menu > tools> new account, all it does is go to the Yahoo Inbox (which is empty always). I can also access this menu through Options, then click on New Account but then nothing happens at all ? I just deleted my Yahoo account to see if I could create a new one from there, but nothing happens.
This is not boding well for the Tilt. I'd really appreciate some help. Things were just fine when I got it the first week. Is there a way to restore the phone to factory defaults and such ?

Also, when I hit "send/receive" it says error synchronizing very quickly on the bottom. And if I try it again, I get an error message "S7900: Another update operation is currently in progress"
I had the same problem, however so did my wife. We both have Kaisers and were emailing instead of chatting all the time. Our emails sudenly stopped updating automaticaly. Happened on both phones so I called the provider. Turns out there was an update that killed the push function from hotmail, gmail, and a couple others. ATT suggested I download the BB Connect until the error has been corrected. Been about 3 weeks now and no fix made.
I recently Flashed a new Radio on my AT&T Tilt/HTC Kaiser device with Stock AT&T/HTC Rom running Windows 6.1 Pro. Recently as in 3 days ago. I haven't sent one text message until I tried to this morning. I have on my Today screen: Date, Messaging and Calendar. I can click on the date field as well as the Calendar..but the Messaging Field was Bricked! Now I received a Text notification from Tmobile around 3:45AM after I paid my bill. So I know my Text Messages were working at that time. This morning around 10:00AM..is when I noticed that it was Bricked and I couldn't check it. I couldn't even access it from Xpress Mail..it would not allow me to..and for that matter..Xpress Mail with my Hotmail Email is not working. I went into the Windows Folder and clicked on Tmail.exe and it does nothing. I rebooted the phone...I even took the battery out...still nothing. I'm getting an error message when I try and re-register my Xmail S770 something like that or to that effect...can someone help me!!! I made a backup file 3 days ago but whenever I used Sprite to restore my phone it always leaves me with duo selections in my menu options to which I cannot uncheck any of them.
Also to piggy back on that
When I had stepped out the Doctors Office to see if that would make a difference..I immediately had an H in place of the E...the H then switched to 3G as I was still yet walking to my car..."Bowie, Maryland" I get to the car then it goes back to EDGE. I actually tried placing a call and getting on the Net when I noticed the H and 3G and I was denied.
Hello everyone,
I already posted a question in another existing thread, but I couldnt get an answer so far.
My Problem is the following:
I have the HTC Kaiser, I bought it unlocked on ebay and put a AT&t Sim Card into it. Everything works fine but it wont vibrate on Text messages. It can play a sound on text messages and it can vibrate on phone calls but not on new Messages. Ive been to the Sounds and Notifications menu multiple times but everything is set on vibrate. I also downloaded kaiser Tweak, but there is only an option for sent Notifications.
I hope You guys can help me!
I have that too!
I have a tilt with the att branded 6.1 rom on it, and it would often reset the vibrate setting to no vibrate on text messages. Usually my own override lasted as long as I didn't reset the machine.
I assumed it was my company's activesync settings, but now I'm not sure. I'm reflashing it and will do the soft reset on the bottom when it says 3 (EDIT - it doesn't seem to work on the 6.1 distro) seconds until it's ATTified, and will try the official patch for the backlight hotfix (plus probably some tweaking from http://www.wmexperts.com/articles/howto/how_to_customize_your_tilt.html ). Hopefully this will fix it...
hello,
thank you for your anwer.
please let me know if it worked aftewr you tried it.
Actually, so far so good, the official re-image with the htc patch and playing with some kaisertweak settings (probably unrelated) corrected the no-vibrate issue. I'm seeing text that I type in the screen on IE not show up anymore though (think typing in to google search and not seeing what you typed), so I'm thinking of trying it kaiser-tweak-less. Also, when sending/receiving email, the status menu at the bottom is more often missing. I'm hoping these issues are all software and not hardware.
Hello!
I have a Diamond on the Sprint network. I had set up my Yahoo email account on my phone to download only messages from the last 3 days and automatically check every 5 mins. I got this phone back in March or so and never had a problem with this, but starting last week, it's been randomly downloading my entire inbox of 16,000 messages which includes messages from as far back as 5 years. (There's unlimited storage space on Yahoo, so I don't delete old emails.)
Anyway, this slows down the phone immensely, as you might imagine. And it takes me a while to be able to clear my inbox on the phone because of its slowness. I've done this a few times and tried resetting my inbox settings, and also once deleted the account on my phone and re-set it up, but the same thing will ultimately happen-- when left alone for a while, the stupid thing will just download the whole inbox.
Like I said, for the last few months it was working just fine. I didn't change any settings on my phone. Anyone have any idea how to fix this??
For now my temp solution is to transfer my older messages on Yahoo to another folder so that my inbox is smaller; in that case, if the phone decides to be stupid again and ignore my "download only messages from the last 3 days" setting, it still won't be downloading 16,000 messages. But I shouldn't have to do this as the phone should be following my instructions, as it was for a while!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
RS
EDIT: My temporary fix (moving old emails to another folder) didn't even work! My phone still downloaded all the folders and all the messages. Help please!
<bump> still looking for a fix...
Hey guys,
I have an unlocked HD7 from Bell and I'm using it under Rogers right now. I have a problem where my incoming SMS are behind by 5 hours. (They come right away but the stated time on them is off by 5 hours).
I tried fiddling with the timezone settings to match the times but then it messes up my calendar times.
Does anyone know if there is a fix for this?
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Joey
Anyone figure this out?
I am 2 hours out (thinking it has to do with where the Bell SMS center is located)
hoping someone can figure out a fix
I am in Calgary, AB, Canada and using Fido if that makes a difference. I am thinking I could update to a different ROM, anyone know if that will work and what ROM I should choose?
thanks in advance
This is a known issue at Microsoft i mentioned it to them when i went there for an interview as well the only way to fix it is by doing the following.
1) goto Settings> Date & Time>
2) Turn off "set automatically"
3) Set Time Zone to "UTC Coordinated Universal Time"
4) Manually enter the correct time in the "Time" field
5) Adjust the date if you have to.
And Save and restart your phone this should fix the issue its not an actual fix but it works.
Well I took your advice and changed the timezone to UTC - 03 (then manually set the time)
Seems to have done the trick; will just have to remember to adjust for time zones I guess
thanks
Wait; spoke too soon
that messed up all the times for my email, the emails are all time stamped 3 hours in the future.
Oh well, guess I will just never have that "Perfect" phone.
Just annoying as this HD7 is probably the best phone I have ever had but there are so many of these annoyances...

What email are you using on the device? Outlook or just a standard Hotmail / Live acct? I will be unlocking my Bell HD7 very soon to use it on Rogers as well and I do not use Outlook so if the fix above sorts out the TEXT issue and does not bother my "Hotmail / Live" email then I will be a happy man however... I dont really use my email on my phone that much anyways so I guess as long as this fixes the SMS timestamp issue then I should be fine.
At any rate... If you could let me know anyways I would appreciate it.
***EDIT*** I tried this today after unlocking my Bell HD7 and running it on Rogers and it did not work at all. Now instead of the time stamp being 4 hours slow, it is now 2 hours fast using Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). Anyone else know how to get a proper time stamp on SMS after unlocking and using on a different network?
I just gave up and am now licing with a 4 hour tamestamp issue on my text.
my email, calendar and everything else works so this is just something I guess I have to live with. Not that bad
Email via hotmail & yahoo using the WP7 email program
My EVO does the same thing. Only when my cousin sends MMS he's on cricket. It has also done it when the towers messed up in my area.

Ya... Same with me. I gave up as well and am now living with the timestamp issue on my texts, mms, etc... My outgoing texts go out at the right time and are being received by the recipients at the right time but when I receive a text it is out of wack.
What I dont understand is that when I get a text and I get the "toast notification" at the top of my phone, the time stamp there is CORRECT but when I open my messages and look at the actual message itself it is out of wack. WEIRD!!!
Does yours do this as well?
