Email question

i use outlook on my Tilt, when i get email i get a pop like notification every few minutes, and i can selet dismiss or view(or something like that) is there a way to stop that notification popup? also i have my phone light set to turn off after 2 minutes, which it goes into a standby type mode, basically the same thing as when you hit the power button on the right side once how it stand byes until u hit it again, when it does that i cant receive messages, my send/receive is set to check every 5 minutes, but with it in this standby type mode it wont send/receive to get new messages until i basically wake it up, is that a way to get it to send/receive while in this mode?

for your first question: SEARCH THE FORUM !!!!!!!
just kidding (but if you do you'll find your question answered a few times...):
You have to go to Settings/Personal/Sounds and Notification, select New e-mail from the combobox and uncheck the box saying "Display message on screen"
For your second question: I don't know but there are more people complaining about this

thanks man, appreciate it, i guess i had to make things more complicated than they really are lol

I have the same problem. My device (TyTn II) is set to download mails "as items arrive" from my Exchange server. I always have my device in standby-mode using VJDevicelock. The problem is that when it is in standby it doesn't receive e-mails. I then wake it up and suddenly get a barrage of mail.

Search the forums, there was a long thread on this that has sort of died out. Basically, the fix has been identified (we think) and is in the KaiserTweak app. Basically, get the latest xml version of KaiserTweak, and in there are options for "Notifications": change the values under notifications to somehting other than 1 second, and it should fix the problem. Also, it could be a result of having the HTC Home screen installed (if you're using a tilt and installed it as a separate app), the Task Manager seems to contribute to this issue as well (disable it by going to task manager and uncheck the "Enable Quick Menu on Today Screen", and a third possible cuplrit is having the "automatic set time zone and dater" option checked on in Settings > Phone. (This has not bothered mine, but others reported that it did.) But, if I were you I'd start with teh Kaisertweak settings and remove the HTC HOme screen (if installed), and go from there.

Open email message and email closes

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?

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.

Deleted text messages still show up

A lot of the time when I clear my text messages (by going to the SMS tab > All Messages > then deleting them all from the inbox as well as clearing the sent/drafts/outbox/deleted folders), when I X out the window to go back to the TouchFlo I get a "tmail.exe error" and then I click "don't send" and it goes back to TF like normal. This happens A LOT, anyone else have this problem?
Also, just today, I deleted all my messages but when I scroll to the SMS tab, they're still there and I can flick them up and down to see the past 5 messages. Although when I go to "all messages" there's nothing there because I already deleted them all. What's going on?

No SMS notification, delayed

So i just got my Diamond 2, and it's great and all.
One annoying thing though, is that when i receive a SMS/text when the phone is 'sleeping',
the phone does not notify me by sound/vibration/LED blinking.
Often i have to wake the phone up manually, and first THEN the phone notifies me by sound/ring.
changing the SMSWakeUp setting in the registry helps,
but then it's wakes up unlocked (with CSDEVCTRL installed, other apps don't lock perfectly), which is a big annoyance.
Has anyone else experienced this problem, and maybe have a solution?
Regards.

Goto "Settings --- Sound ----- Advanced ----- Notifications ----- Event ---- New Text Message" and disable "Play Sound".... then "ok" for exit.. Then repeat this for enable sound for "New Text Message" and change default message tone..
This works for me.. Never missed message after this "weird" settings..

Doesn't work, thanks for the advice though

For the "New Text Message" event, just untick "Display Message" and it will wake up locked, play sounds, and flash the LED

This has been mentioned on other threads, quite a few people including myself are having the same problem and it doesnt appear to be a settings issue.
On about 50% of received messages all i get is the green light flashing, when the phone is woken the text alert sounds.
This used to happen on every message, a hard reset improved things but its still not perfect. I send and receive a lot of SMS messages and its really annoying not to be notified when i get replies.
Maybe this will be addressed in a firmware update.

Sorry, forgot to mention that I have also changed the SMSWakeUp registry key. I've had no problems in about 2 weeks with SMS since

Thanks, gonna read that.
I've enabled SMSwakeup and installed Pocketshield (slidelock only) as a temporary solution.

Firefox set image as to Contacts. Bug, or not smart enough?

So earlier today I was attempting to grab an online photo of someone to associate with a contact so I don't accidentally reject the call (I tend to just let people I don't know go to voice mail). So I looked up the number with Firefox/duckduckgo, found the photo I wanted, did a press/hold and the menu pops up. Select 'Set image as' and then selected Contacts.
Contacts then crashes (I tried it twice, with the same result, except the second time it asked to close app or send feedback, vs restart app and send feedback.)
So is this a bug? Or is it me thinking the phone should be smarter than that? I mean is Contacts thinking I'm opening it AS a Contact? And since all it sees is a jpg, it crashes?
This seems like it'd be good functionality. now I wonder if Bixby would look up a photo and put it into a contact for me....
