I'm a big fan of SPB's pocket plus, but the 3.0 version has some conflicts with the I-Mate K-Jam. While I can wait for them to work those out in most instances, I REALLY miss the ability to completely close tasks via the "X" in the upper right corner of the screen.
Has anyone found a compatible program that allows users to COMPLETELY close programs using the "X" button?
Thanks for any advice!
(As an aside, you'd think that after 5 versions and all the problems with programs/memory in WM2003PE, Microsoft would have included this feature in the OS.... but.... nooooo....)
wisbar advance 2
works for me.
NOT REALLY
IT WORKED FINE FOR ME TOO BUT.............
THE NAJOR PROBLEM THE WHOLE DEVICE HANGS UP AFTER A SOFT RESET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When you install SPB + 3.0 go to settings for SPB and uncheck "Safe Mode on Soft Reset" This is what causes it to hang. When you uncheck that everything runs fine
I have SPB + on my K-Jam
Me 2
yes but my k-jam don´t lets to install pocket plus ?¿?
regards?¿?
I installed Magic Button - worked fine when I actually tap the "X" icon. For some reason, though, it doesn't seem to work when using a hardware button assigned to OK / Close.
Any ideas?

Well, forgetting the broken English, I am having this same problem, too -- the CAB file only installs 10-15%, then just craps out, and the Windows "unsuccessful install" message pops up.
Any thoughts? Have I corrupted some registry entry or something, that after the first bad one, does not allow the Pocket Plus CAB to properly install?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
bit of an extreme suggestion, do a hard reset and re-install from scratch,
sorry all i can suggest. :?
i do but, it´s imposible
Anyone else experiencing notification queue dups on their JasJar? I'm getting this on an AppRunAfterRestore event. At first I blamed Pocket Informant (sorry Alek...), but I see that after a hard reset they still occur. I have installed the following apps, but cos this does not happen immediately, I have not yet figured out the culprit All latest versions):
- PocketPlus
- MobiPocket reader
- spb weather (will uninstall cos not updating)
- AeUptime
- GPRS monitor
- eWallet
- Pocket mechanic
- Total commander
- no skype, no eTrust AV
I'm keep to find a proggie I can chron to run at midnight that will clean the queue without manual intervention. Anything out there?
sddaemon is a service of the voice dial app. Look in your startup folder and the exe should be there. You can try moving it to another folder and see if it has any impact on voicedialling (my guess is it will). You can check Scarybear's website http://www.scarybearsoftware.com/ for two freeware apps; one will allow you to clear duplicate notifications manually and the other will go into your startup folder and will clear notifications on every soft reset. Hope that helps
Edit: the startup app may not get the sddaemon notifications, but give it a try and see what it does.
Thanks for that efjay - didn;t know what sddeamon was for.
Scarybear; I'm afraid it doesn't cover this dup:
Note, this startup program will only remove these events: "SSTimeChange" and "conmgr.exe", and "IA_Caller_ID.exe" (with an event type of "AppRunAfterRestore").

Dont forget to go to the settings and check the option to remove duplicate events. I tried it on my BA with WM5 and it cleared all duplicates i had.

I have Ewallet in common. I heard more about it but cannot find it.
Huib
eWallet is a ***** - not nearly as compatible as ppl think. If ur JJ won't turn on, it's almost definitely an eWallet notification set to run on wake-up. EVERY time I run eWallet I go to my queue and kill the app it adds. Main issue is that it's path is to the SD card, and card is not readable in those first few microseconds of wake up, so device cannot get past that point.
If u have this problem, soft reset, go to notificaiton queue, and find \storage...\program files\eWallet\.... - kill the little bugger!

Help!!! All the programs in my add and remove program list has dissappeared. I can't uninstall any programs. Any suggestions?
hey bud i have the same problem if anyone can shed some light on this please do i know its happended to me where every i have it connected to pc with active sync and try to install programs then active sync wont find my unit so any help will do
Hmm, you guys can try to use SKTools to see if it see your installed files. Just download the trial version, if it works, but it, trust me. Memaid have the unistall feature also.
I had this problem once on when I had my 8125. It was from installing a program onto my 8125 and the computer froze. I unplugged the USB cord and reboot the computer. After that the 8125 couldn't install or remove any programs (Nothing in the remove section).
A hard reset cured it.

Unfortunately, SKTools' trial mode is pretty useless. Nevertheless, it's one of the very few apps that worth every penny - that is, you all can safely buy it, you won't regret your choice.

Just noticed I'm having the same prob. Mine won't even sync with outlook so i can save my contacts. Any Suggestions? And I'm not sure how to do a hard reset.
I have an O2 xda Neo (PM300) running Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC.
All of a sudden I noticed I no longer receive notifications or reminders of appointments or tasks on my "today" page nor any audible sounds. Even though I have:
1. Enabled sounds for reminders in "sounds & Notifications"
2.checked the "display message on screen" and "play sound" boxes in the "notifications" submenu
3.Checked the "set reminders for new items" box in the "appointments" sub menu in "options" in "calendar" (and done the same for "tasks"
My clock is correct. I have soft reset the unit a few times, I have set sample appt's and tasks and attempted to set a reminder for 5 minutes prior just to test and still nothing...
It was working fine upto maybe a couple weeks ago and just stopped working one day. I am at a loss, as the sheduling/task/appoitntment aspect is the main reason for me going the pocket pc route.
Now, I have no advance warning of tasks or appt's other than the calendar displaying the next few or so the day of or day before.
Very frustrating!
Look for Check Notifications ScaryBear Software. This program might be you solution
I had the same problem this week.
In my case it was either the (failed) installation of pocket clock or pocket max phone alarm that did it.
I loaded a previous week's sprite back-up (program part only) and that fixed the problem. I have not tried to reinstall pocket max phone alarm.
Will not reinstall pocket clock because that did not work anyways.

I sync'd my data, did a hard memory reset, deleted that ActiveSync partnership,created a new partnership, sync'd all my data back onto my handheld and it seems to be working again!
Thanks for your suggestions!

I have exactly the same problem - but unfortunately cannot remember when it showed up the first time. I do not want to try a hard reset, also checking pocketmax seems that they only advise to do a lot of reinstallations. And I worry the problem will show up again later as I want to continue using phone alarm. I rather would like to change registry entries.
- Anybody has some idea what to change?
- I found an empty string value WAVEFILE in HKKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\calendar\reminder - can anybody tell me their value here
- same empty value is in HKKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Tasks\reminder
Thanks Hase01
I had the exact same problem 2 weeks ago on my JAMin - suddenly noticed that I had not been receiving reminders/notifications.
I had not installed any new software, etc., to cause this, I had simply been using the PDA in the same manner as for the preceeding weeks/months.
Hase01, unfortunately the way I fixed it was with a hard reset. Why do you not want to try this? I found that once the reset had been done, it took all of 5-10 minutes to reload all the files and to reinstall the software I had previously been running. It's not that big a deal......

I am not a friend of hard resets, that's why I am hesitating. And I am not sure how far I have to go back, as I was in vacation for some time and only afterwards started missing the reminders.
Could you do me a favor and let me know your registry settings for
- HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Reminders
- HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Sounds
- HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Defaults
Do you use phone alarm?
Thanks in advance

Just download my Free Task Manager found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280104
1) Launch it on your pocket pc
2) Select Notifications tab
3) First try to remove duplicates
4) Try to remove SCRIPT:0x000...
If it still doesn't work, select all of them and disable them.
Do a soft reset and create a new notification, if it works, I suggest you to enable only the necessary notifications, so those like:
CALENDAR.EXE
\Windows\calupd.exe
replog.exe
calnot.exe
clocknot.exe
and delete all [none] notifications
Cheers,

Glad to hear that... Anyway, this is another solution that works.
One of my colleagues had the same problem, about 570 notifications. We tried first to remove duplicates and SCRIP:0x000 events, but the problem remained.
After the remove he still had more than 400 notifications. So I selected them all and disabled them via TM. After soft reset we created a test notification and it worked. So as I mentioned in my previous post, we enabled back the needed notifications and we removed the rest. Now everything is fine.
I have noticed that most of the time, this problem appears when you synchronize your calendar with multiple pc's.

The smart thing with the alarmtoday solution was that I did not need to take care about notifications, deletions etc. I just installed AT and all notifications came back. And btw, I usually sync only with one PC, seem to be a WM5 problem.

I was not lucky - while replying to this post the problem came back again after 3 months. My Alarm today fix did not work again. Before I tried your task manager I checked my notification queue with sk-Tools: I don't have too many notifications. So - any Idea what I can do instead.
Thanks Hase

I was almost in my bed!
1) Try to disable all notifications (don't worry, they are stored in the registry, so you won't lose any of them, except if you do a hard reset, or delete the reg entries).
2) Soft reset and make a test
3) if it works, just enable the notifications as mentioned in my first post until the problem is back (or not).
Cheers,

May be I have to install your task manager, sk-tools is not able to disable notifications, only delete is possible. Do you think this might help, I won't be able to install you tm before the weekend? I don't have duplicate entries and no SCRIPT:0x000.. entries.

By disabling all entries, it's like cleaning the notifications database. So it will surely solve your problem (temporary anyway).

I tried to use you TM on my WM2003 SE ppc as I always do before I run a new program on my Qtek S200 (it's nearly impossible to deinstall a program only manual deletion of all files works). Unfortunately it does not run on my IPAQ. It starts but dies after 0.5 secs. Did you ever had this problem?

You're not the first one telling me this. I don't know why it doesn't work on IPAQ with WM2003SE.
But, you can launch it on your Qtek s200 without any doubt. I already tested it myself on Qtek 2020, 9090, 9100, Mitac Scoter A701 and HTC P3600 without any problem found.

I got the notifications back. I think it was basically repaired by installing alarmtoday again from backup. I think the problem could have been caused by the new sktools version. Strange.
B.t.w. do you need a beta tester for oyur TM on IPAQ. Then just sent me a pm

Ok. I have the same problem recently.. unsure what is the problem, but it seems that softreset *cause* (not solve) the problem, some what.. during my testing.
Anyway, I tried a few solutions listed, and the easy one is to use the TaskManager (freeware) to find the notification with 'Status' is in 'signalled'. These are passed notifications and it seems that these are causing the problem. As soon as I've removed them, the problem seems to have solved.
Then, I tested it again, by removing the 'Init_tray' from the startup and do a softreset. I tried it again, and it doesn't work. I check again on Task Manager, those 'signalled' stuff are back.
Shortcuts all have the same 'icon'.
Here's is what I did, I installed G-alarm and I get a following message after installing this app. "your device seems to be at risk to have the windows alarm bug". I told me to restart so I did.
Nothing weird happend after that but I didn't test the application.
I installed sprite backup after that and made a backup.
All went well and backup was made.
Now I was installing Western Europe maps for TomTom. The process was fine and when I unplugged the HTC from my PC for testing TomTom I saw that all my shortcuts changed in the same way. (shortcut icon blue outside, white inside)
And I tried the Icon but it didn't launch any program so ... I went towards the install dir from my appz and all normal .exe files where still working so something f**ked up my shortcuts.
I tried soft reset but when starting up the HTC i get much errors from application G-alarm.
Anyone knows my problem?
I removed all programs who'd give errors. Replaced all shortcuts also.
Seems to be working so far.
Anyone has an id where I can remove registery entries from uninstalled software?
Because some software didn't uninstall correctly.
Hi murda187,

SK Tools can do the job quite well, as far as I have used it.
