Could someone please be so kind as to list the entires in the notification queue of a fairly clean JasJar for me. Just the main program, found using Pocket Mechanic, and excluding standard calendar entries.
I mistakenly deleted something, and I need to try and figure out what it was without going thro a hard reset...

Pls don't get angry on me.
I have the same sound/nomore calendarwarning at all/ and random alarm problem.
I downloaded, on you advice, pocketmechanic, and am now in front of the Notification Queue.
Can you tell me what I can delete and what I can't?
huib
You can delete CALENDAR and TASKS entries - they will re-add themselves. But rather not cos you have nothing to gain
\\.\Notification\.....SCRIPT... entries seem to cause problems. If they are due to activate soon, leave them alone. If they are due to go off in a few days, kill the little buggers. I think that many of them are registration checkers.
You WILL have duiplicate sddaemon entries with yellow icons. Kill them ALL and enjoy it!
You should find 1 of each of the follwoing:
- repllog
- \windows\calupd
- CALNOT
You will find 2 of each of the following:
- calnot
- clocknot
- repllog
ANything else is 'interesting'. Google it and kill it if it does not point to something u r happy with. I have never had one not sort itself out if it was required (eg weather updating - will come back when weather app next loads).
OK, so I did. Deleted 46 dups.
And than a soft reset:
Still 46 dups over there. But first:
The warning sound that comes up, starts before even asking for the Sim pin. Nearly immediately after soft resetting, this sounds comes up It keeps warning me for quite a time and then stops. I think it repeats about 8 times, but everytime with a slower interval between the (three tones) beeps. Do you think it should also be in that queue?
I really don't want to hard reset any more. It is so much work.
Before this problem started I had my battery drained , ignoring low battt warnings. Could that be the case? That the jasjar shuts down before properly handling the sounds?
The calendar does not warn anymore, so somewhere in this queue something is blocked?
Interesting, right?
Huib
Hell, not sure 'interesting' is the word I'd use. This sounds awful.
I did hear that running the battery empty is indeed bad for a Universal. But I think it was bad for the battery not for the ROM.
I don't understand why your duplicates come back! Post a list of the following:
- A few of the duplicates in detail
- An idea of what all these duplicates are (are they all the same)
- A list of progs in \windows\startup
- A list of installed apps (excluding games and things)
This is surely easy to solve. Let's see what we can do.

\windows\sddaemon.exe apprunAfterrestore action details: n/a
Notify when a device restore is complete. handle: 0x300056
and many more nearly the same but with handle 0x3a000055 or 0x3f000056 or idem but with 0x38000059 etc etc
Alle of the dups are in that list, close to each other. So they are more or less the same.
What about a suggestion to" Just remove sddaemon.lnk from \windows\startup\
then soft reset. it is ok"
from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=180017#180017
In windows startup: Poutlook and sddaemon + spb GPRS notify (GPRS is recently new, after the problems started)
progs: listpro, pbreeze ( But I did not have that installed when the problems rised the first time I had them) Pocketweather, Ewallet ( now removed) NR de Luxe,
Edited: oops , I forgot Agile. And I also forgot to say that I had many freezes, using Agile. So also here there could be a source of problems.
Huib
Create a new folder \windows\StartupDisabled, and move sddaemon here. Kill the duplicates, and soft reset. I can't imagine that they come back. Does this solve the startup issue. If not, you'll need to tell us exactly what else is running under notifications.
If it works, keep it like this for a few days and see if voice command still works OK. I'm trying myself right now after reading that post.

Sorry, but still dups ( 43 now)
And that stupiud warningn sound is still there. My right led keeps blinking, and I thought it should not blink.
A hard reset? (becoming suicidal)'

This does not make sense; we are going to check 3 things:
1) are u using PM correctly
2) are dups truly getting deleted
3) is the soft reset bringing them back
4) if so, let's stop it
1) Are you correctly using PM to remove dups? You need to TICK each item to be removed (each yellow icon), either manually or by clicking 'dups' button. You THEN have to click "remove" button. You MUST then check that dups have indeed been removed.
2) Exit PM, go back in and check they are not there. If they've come back, then you have a corrupted notifications queue that PM is not dealing with correctly. Hard reset I'm afraid - but look for another post I started on TIPS n TRICKS - it's not nearly as brutal as u think.
3) Now, soft reset - if they came back then it's the reset that's causing the porblem. If not, then you should be good. Is your SR going OK without the sounds now?
4) If they DO come back, then look for notification queue entires linked to "AppRUnAfterRestore" and tell us what they are.

1. I click DUP: 44 found Then I click DELETE and I read : 44 notificatons succesfully deleted.
2.I leave PM an start it again to be sure : I click DUP: 0 found.
3. Soft reset directly after that, goto PM etc and: the same 44.

Hell, this sounds awful. Only thing I can think of is to kill ALL sddaemon entries (you MIGHT then lose voice dial functionality) and try again. If they come back again, a hard reset may be the only solution. Sorry.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello All!
After 3 weeks of usage of my Qtek9000:
- all the Calendar notifications dissapeared (no text, no sound);
- the Alarms did have sound and vibra, but no text and Notification softbutton on the screen;
- alarms sounds could appear on their selfs on a random time and no Text on the screen.
I've searched the forum and it learned out that it is a Notification Que Issue.
It looks that upon a time, that que is being oversized or some mess (duplicates?) happened in it.
So, after that the "Notification Que" Issue appears.
HOW I FIXED IT:
1. Get the MemMaid \ PocketMechanic app;
2. find and delete duplicates, SoftReset (SR) (no success so far);
3. delete up to 200 CALENDAR.EXE entries, (SR) (no success so far);
4. delete up to 100TASK.EXE entries, (SR) (no success so far);
5. delete .\\notificatiopn.....script... entries, (SR) (no success so far);
6. delete all repllog.exe entries (2) and SR- IT WORKS AGAIN !!! ;
From this case - I dont know which of the manipulations actually brought my notifications back alive (is that really the repllog.exe entry?)
The possible longterm solution may be a 3-rd party App, which performs scheduled Notification Que clean up?
This is a very annoying and awfull BUG in the WM5 !!!
As I don't believe the fillowing ROM releases will fix this critical bug, the only way out - is developing the system app to perform a scheduled Notification Que clean up.
All, please, give your feed back: your experience, knowledge on the subject, etc.
Thank you.

My exec seems to be getting worse daily, I have latest ROM and run in corporate mode and I have nothing else installed and yet the Notifications are really annoying me, half the time they appear and there is no dismiss button to clear them, and even when there is, they keep coming back, over and over, on sms text's, alarm's, missed calls anything and everything. I have soft reset over and over and they still come back. Now I notice my Exec was on charge all night, I have not used it other than for waking me up this morning and already battery is down to 30%, It's only 10:45am! Normally I can go home with my battery at around 70% that's after being on battery all day from an over night charge.
Not a happy chappy!

doesn't sound too normal there matey..time to ring up O2 to do some complaining? mine's an Exec prototype (ROM v: 0.61.00 WWE) and it doesnt' have such problems. i've downloaded the latest rom update but haven't done it yet coz i'm lazy and coz it remaps my keyboard (my prototype has a couple of different key locations)
looks like the latest rom update could have nasty aftereffects...i think i'll put my update 'on hold' for now~~
have you enabled repeating alarms? i find it dodgy and not really well used so had to disable it.
even spb still doesnt support it well
i believe memmaid and or pocket hackmaster has the ability to fix your notifications, or some other bear product but i dont need or use them as i dont have this problem.

Are you using any of these editing tools that aren't WM5-compliant/compatible?
It's curious, because I (and certainly the majority of Universal users) aren't experiencing the problem you're having. I've been using mine since I set it up in November, and only did a hard reset yesterday because the device started getting a bit odd in the syncing department (my docs filenames being cut off).
In your case I would suggest doing a Hard Reset and not fiddling with the notification queue again, as teh only reason people fiddled with it before, was because of the alarm problem in WM2003.
My notification queue never filled, and I used a LOT of different programs, including beta testing for some PIM management tools.

Hello!
Yes, I will do the Hard Reset, but anyway - after some usage time, the queue will fu**k-up again.
I have 1000+ contacts (most of them with Birthdays Reminders), about 50 appointments per month, and all 3 alarms for wakening up in the morning.
The best solution, IMHO - the tool like "Notification Clear Fix - v1.2",
http://www.pocketpcfreeware.com/fr/index.php?soft=866
(Thanks to bonisalive for information)
Originally, this script is developed for WM2003 to fix its notification queue problems.
Now, we need a same tool for WM5 (the script, or no-GUI exe), which could be scheduled to run at 03.00AM evety Sunday

What I use is ScaryBears Check Notifications. After a missed call or txt, I just run this small application on my EXEC to check if I got a script 000 notifications or any notification added to my original ones. All I have to do is press clear and it errases the script notifications and leaves the original notifications intack. Works fine on my EXEC: http://scarybearsoftware.com/ppc_cn_overview.html

Gooroo, I had exectly the same battery problem, after upgrading to the latest o2 firmware. It made the phone virtually useless unless plugged into a power source. The fix was to upgrade to version 1.06 of the radio firmware. Version 1.06 is on this forum somewhere.
I can now use my Exec all day and have bluetooth enabled all day as well
I've just got my bt headset working to take calls from my exec but when I want to dial using a voice tag I press the button and nothing happens ... the button works to hang up and put calls on hold but not to activate the voice dial thingy
Help!!
Anyone else still have this problem?
OK, I found the solution to this problem. It started when I myself began having problems connecting using voice tags, and I just finished installing everything after a hard reset. I thought at first it was related to the sddaemon.exe file from the start up folder that I deleted because I noticed every time I soft reset a duplicate notification que was created for it, making me decide that it just causes more harm leaving it alone on the start-up folder. I was so worried that I might have to do another hard reset. AHHHHHHHHHHHH! I have too many applications to install and setup. So I decided to fire up Scarry Bears Check Notification and noticed a new duplicate notification was created for windows\sddaemon.exe. No big deal cleared it performed a soft reset. Tried voice tags and still won't call out. Now I'm really worried at this point. I again reviewed all my notifications and noticed that even though there was no duplicate file I now have 2 notifications pertaining to sddaemon.exe file, namely:
\windows\sddaemon.exe
\WINDOWS\SDDAEMON.EXE
Now, I've never seen this file before: WINDOWS\SDDAEMON.EXE......... So I decided to delete it and performed a soft reset afterwards. Assigned my tags and paired my HT820. IT WOKED! HOOOOORRRRAAAAAAAYYYYY!
Solution to the problem: delete \WINDOWS\SDDAEMON.EXE from the notification que.
Conclusions:
1) It is safe to delete sddaemon.exe file from the starup programs as it only causes duplicated notification que after a soft reset.
2) The following notification que are important for voice tag dialing to work properly namely:
\windows\sddaemon.exe
\WINOWS\SDDaemon.exe
Now I am at PEACE. I hope this can help someone out there.

Hi,
It sounds as though I am having the same trouble.
I have a Motorola H3 headset which works fine with two other devices. But with the Exec it is very flakey on the voice dial.
Sometimed I can press the button and it works, othertimes it doesn't.
Last night I tried it about 10 times and noticed that I have to press it twice. Once and it does nothing. then the second press brings up the voice dial software.
Do you think your fix would help me out here? If so, where can I find Scary Bear software (apart from Google) and what is a ntoification queue.
many thanks,
/Mad
You can find check notifications here with a description of what notification que's are: http://scarybearsoftware.com/ppc_cn_overview.html
I think your problem is different, so be careful in deleting anything.
My exec has gone nuts.
First, alarms stopped displaying the message boxes, and as I couldn't dismiss them, they went on for ages.
Now, I get my reminders through from weeks ago through, with no messages, all at once, in a mishmash of notification beeps, and voice command reading them out.
I really have no idea what could be wrong.
I haven't changed anything.
I'd love a fix which doesnt involve hard reset (and yes, I have soft reset it!)
Thanks,
Skelly

Check out MamMaid it has an option for clearing notifications.
Read my step by step guide in the following thread to fix your device - this guide does NOT involve a hard reset.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=60036
And do not use the built-in Clock/Alarm application any more, it is VERY buggy and almost certainly what has caused your problems (as it did on mine).
Thanks: it helped me also: at last solved a irritating problem. You are a great help!
What do people recommend as the best alarm clock program to use?
My alarm clocks stopped working so relying on the Universal atm to wake me up every morning but today one of my calendar reminders didn't go off and I nearly missed a 3 hour conf call (tragedy I know!!!).
G
I'm using SPB Time, a bit bloated at over 3MB just for what is basically a clock but it has everything you will need (clock, WORKING alarm, stopwatch, etc).
Seriously people stop using the built in clock/alarms app completely, it messes up your notifications queue over time making reminders not go off properly and all sorts of other unpleasant bugs which just get worse as your device gets older, which is why I suspect we are seeing more and more of these cases a year after the device was originally released.
It is unknown at this time whether or not these bugs are fixed in later WM5 ROM releases, although I suspect not...

Ho YES I know this problem well!!! It is a total Pain in the But.
I have tried most tings and the only thing thatw orked for me was a hard reset a finaly a ROM upgrade seems to have stopped the problem coming back AGAIn & AGIN . Well for now anyway.
I think SL9 has the answer I have not tried the exact method given But Did try Memmaid and It did not help. I did not however deselect the alarms first and did not do a Soft reset straight after. These may be the secrets to success. I have not had the problem recently (please NO MORE) so unable to try SL9 method but seems to have worked for many
Here is SL9s method Good luck and thanks to SL9
================================
Yes, I had this problem also. You can perform a hard reset, that will solve it but then you loose all your data and it is a pain! So I spent all day trying to find out how to fix it without doing a hard reset, and here are the results:
1. Open the Clock & Alarms app, and click on the Alarms tab. Make sure everything is unticked and unselected.
2. Install and launch MemMaid (http://www.dinarsoft.com/ - Note: MemMaid is shareware that expires after something like 30 days, or you might use another app which allows you to edit the notifications queue), and then press the Jump To softkey and click on the the Notification Queue option.
3. Press the Find Duplicate button, and make sure you say yes to deleting all duplicates.
4. Now you have to scroll through the list slowly, you must find all the ones which have this text in them and check the tickbox: \Windows\clock.exe.
5. Now you have located the rogue alarm notifications and ticked them, press the Delete button and confirm in the next step. Make sure you have NOT ticked/selected any other notifications except the clock.exe ones before you do this step, otherwise it can easily make your phone stop working!
6. Soft reset your device. When it has finished booting, you should notice that it doesn't vibrate madly with alarms for 20 minutes like it used to do before, and you should have a flashing green LED on the right instead of orange
7. Stop using the built-in clock & alarms app if you don't want this to happen again - it is too buggy! Find a replacement alarm app, there are loads of free ones out there!

hi all,
been testing quite a bit of software (spb mobile plus, omapclockplus, batterystatus-plugin, etc) and i often find that sooner or later my notifications are screwed - i don't get popups reminding me of meetings etc. i've tried cleaning the notification queue, removing duplicates etc, and always end up doing a hard reset and reinstall of all my software.
this is getting *annoying* - can anyone point me at an explanation of what's going wrong and how I should try and fix it?

have just used a variety of tools, none of which did anything with automatic deletion. what actually *worked* was using memaid, and searching for all notifications with an action of "NONE" and deleting them all. soft reboot and all appears well.
now, how do i stop this happening again?
I would like to know too But, it seems to be gone so far. It seems like installing uninstalling software will cause this problem?

i've seen that (can't install it right now as at work and exes in zips are blocked) but it's nothing particularly new. installing the battery_status plug in borked my calendar reminders last night and clearing all notification type "none" entries using memaid hasn't fixed it this time. i suspect the answer is to stop using plugins like spb mobile shell and battery_status. just restoring my wizard now via SPB backup to see if it helps...
From the software that you have mentioned, the only common software you and I have is this battery_status. However, it just doesnt seems right as I don't think battery_status mess with noti q.
Well, if you want to keep battery_status, you may want to take this drastic approach. The last time, when I've noticed the same problem, I've searched and try to solve the problem by clearning the noti q. However, accidentally, instead of removing doubtful noti, I removed EVERYTHING. However, to my surprise, after a soft reset, the system seems to have rebuilt the q, each and every reminder.
Do a backup first before this drastic approach.

i've seen that (can't install it right now as at work and exes in zips are blocked) but it's nothing particularly new. installing the battery_status plug in borked my calendar reminders last night and clearing all notification type "none" entries using memaid hasn't fixed it this time. i suspect the answer is to stop using plugins like spb mobile shell and battery_status. just restoring my wizard now via SPB backup to see if it helps...

Here you go the cab files
Careful
What the Scarybear notification removal software, it sometimes clears out them all, leaving activesync failing. If this happens run 'FixASRunAt', you can find it by search in the forums, this will ensure Activesync does not fail.

much appreciated, dude!
I had the same problem. Suddenly the tasks did not remind me anymore. The device turned on at the scheduled time but there was no notification popup or sound.
What I did was delete every task from the device, delete all the notifications related to TASKS.EXE with the tool found on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280104, sync with Outlook and move the deleted tasks from the Deleted items folder to the main Tasks folder so they're back, and that's it. It's working again!
Hope the tip helps someone!
guys need help..
got one annoying problem bout my alarm... ive seem to disable all my alarms but the phone still recognizes my old settings.. how to explain this errr,,, well previously ive set the alarms at 6.00 am , 6.25 am and 6.30 am... after a short while the phone hangs so i soft reset it, then after that i've set the alarm to 7.00 am,7.25 and 7.30 am, (max 3 alarms can be set) but the prob is everyday the phone alarms set off at the 6++am time... even tho ive change them all to 7++AM and there is no way to disable them since only the 3, 7oclock alarms is avaible on the list...
so now i have a total of 6 alarms...
guys how to fix this without hard resetting,,,
TQ,
Do these 'phantom' alarms show up in your notifications queue?
You need something like Memmaid or Scarybear's Checknotifications to see these.
Look at the ones called calendar xxx or clock xxxx
Make sure from the descriptions that these are notifications you want to keep, if not delete them, also delete any duplicates.
DON'T delete any other notifications, these could be needed by the system to function correctly.
When I had similar alarm problems, I did this and found I had around 500 alarm/reminder notifications, some going way back, and some for May 2047!
When I got rid of these and the duplicates, it came down to around 40 and my alarms and reminders worked properly again.
Hope this works for you
ive downloaded Scarybear's Checknotifications but i do not know which to delete..zzz calender.exe or clock.exe?

I am more familiar with SKtools and Memmaid than Scarybear, but the ones to avoid deleting are any titled repllog. If Scarybear has a delete duplicates function then you should be safe to use that. Entries for alarms may have a title such as windows\clock.exe. In sktools I can click such entries and it tells me what alarm it is and when it's set to go off (not sure about Scarybear)
Good luck

PS Get a good Full backup programme like SPB Backup and then you would not need to worry about deleting the wrong thing.
When you first run the app, it marks all the duplicates in red, just press clear to get rid of those.
The ones to look at individually are the ones like:
Clock.exe - then scrolling to the right, these should have an entry under dialog title like "daily alarm" and then dialogue text like "Alarm: Wake up 10.30"
Make sure that all these are for alarms you want, delete the ones which aren't.
the others are:
Calendar.exe, in the dialogue title these say POOM xxxx and in the dialogue text, there is a description of the appointment you have set the reminders for.
You should be able to tell from these if any are in the past ie reminders you thought you had dismissed, or indeed from ridiculously in the future like 10 years time.
Delete the unwanted ones of these.
Also worth checking are Tasks.exe entries
Plus any other apps you have which can put alarms on the system eg some notes applications
Then use the exit button to exit checknotifications and see if this improves things.
The problem seems to arise (on my device) in 2 ways.
Firstly, in the past a reminder will have come up, and I think I dismissed it, or while I was dismissing it, something else happened on the system, incoming call, another alarm, crash, anything really, and somehow the dismiss instruction never seems to have 'taken'.
The other way is using Windows mobile live client. It seems to put notifications in every time you soft reset, so you can end up with a lot of WLM duplicates. It also seems to sync a whole load of old 'stuff' to the device, together with old notifications
If you find this helps, do consider getting Memmaid or SK Tools. I use Memmaid every day to clear junk out of my device. It's not free like checknotifications, but it does a whole lot more and has repaid the investment many times over (they do a free trial). SK Tools does even more, but is also I think easier to do something 'silly' on.
Also, the one thing I couldn't do without is a good backup program. I always take a series of backups. That way a hard reset needn't mean hours of re-installation. Usually about 20 minutes max.
all right..
I did as you said and i think it worked.
Thank you so much for helping.
No probs.
Remember, this isn't usually a 1 off problem. If it does fix things, keep an eye on that queue for a while and make sure things don't build up again.
