any ideas?

Moderation: Link removed - no longer valid/exists

The link's Dead, use this instead. FixUnreadCount.zip. This will remove all messages from the Today screen. Works like a giff for me.

The file downloads as a zip file.
Extract it using winzip.
It will unzip to an EXE file. This is an exception to the usual rule that you run EXEs on the PC, in this case move it to your device SD Card using active Sync explorer button or by using a PC card reader. Once on the device tap it to run it.

I get 1 undread sms message after i installed the palm message app.. Tried this and it didnt clear it.. Any ideas how to get rid of that?

yea i get that palm 1 txt too.. i have to delete all my palm msgs then make sure the app is closed out then start it and that fixes the issue

fixunreadcount.exe didn't work for me either so here is what I did:
1) Backup using Sprite. Uncheck messages so they aren't included in the backup.
2) Hard reset the device
3) Restore using Sprite
4) Re-setup your email accounts
How to hard reset (from the wiki):
Hard Reset **NB** This cannot be performed while the device is connected/charging!**
* Press and hold both soft keys
* Using a stylus, press and hold the soft reset button at the bottom of the phone
* Keep all three buttons pressed until the keypad lights turn off and then flash
* Release the soft reset button while still pressing the soft keys
* Let go of the two soft keys once the message "This operation will delete all your personal data, to manufacturer default" appears on screen
* Finally, press the green call button to perform the hard reset, or press other key to cancel

Whew...
Thanks for this post. This has to be one of the most annoying glitches I've encountered with my phone. For the first couple of days, I'm like; ok, no big deal. I'll figure it out, or I'll just get by with the dumb little message showing a text. But after 2 days, I had to figure it out somehow. ATT tech support is useless. I'm not going to factory restore!!! That's simply not an option.....
Long live this board and it's contributors. This find was GOLDEN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!

1 unread sms on Rhodium (TP2)
Hello,
I've got a stuck SMS message since the end of November, I find this very annoying and I've tried everything! I even dumped out all the messages once, after I've clicked 'm all..
Anyway.
I'm an owner of a Rhodium with WM6.5 (1.88.404.3) version, I've installed it around 20th Nov. jl
I hope someone does have a solution for me,

"I've tried everything" doesn't help us much.
Did you run http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=219102&d=1250917002
If not then try it.
If you have, run it again, possibly twice. Following each attempt do a soft reset BUT NOT by sticking the stylus in the hole. Soft re-set by LONG pressing the power button until you get the warning message.
(Just ramming the stylus in the hole can actually delete the changes that runnng the program has just made - so don't do it. The program makes some changes to the "registry". Unfortunately registry changes are not "written back" immediately - thus doing a stylus in the hole reset may be too quick and the changes lost forever. Doing a "long press" ensures all pending write backs are done before the reset is executed - which is what you want.)

Thanks a lot for this contribution.
FYI: I ran it twice, but it didn't fix it. Then I restarted. Then ran it again. Then it fixed it.

sddaemon.exe / cnt_event

I got around 50 of those sddadeamon. And check notification wont remove it either, anyone else got problems with those?
tap and hold on the item and then tap delete. That worked for me, just clearing the list with the clear button did not work. As you have 50 of these items, have fun
hum did that now, but i did a reset after and now all of the sddadeamon.exe is back damn
Hmmm, for me only one sddaemon event is created every soft reset, which i then kill immediately. I am sorry, son't think I can help you here.
I get one with every soft reset, but I think using the voice dial also creates one.
I use MemMaid to remove all duplicates, always leaving one.
I haven't come across more details other than it is part of the voice dial app...or how to stop it from duplicating.
aaa fixed it =)
how?
anyone know where to get memaid?
I too use MemMaid for my K-JAM.
Excellent software.
But still, what does sddadeamon do?

PocketCM Noob help

i searched a ton of the threads and have found a lot of these questions asked, but not answered. so please if anyone can help me i am clueless with this. i dont like to touch registry stuff unless i absolutely have to, but i am willing to DL other programs like SIPChange to get stuff to work. anyway:
1. i am able to send texts via PocketCM which i think is awesome, but when i get a text, my phone no longer vibrates like it used to be4 PocketCM took over. is there anything i can do to fix this?
2. related to that one, can i make PocketCM my default text app? cuz it still pops up as new text notification and if i hit reply it goes to the WM default one
3. since ive been screwing around trying to solve these myself... i held down the phone icon, bringing up a new set of tabs, and went to the one all the way to the left. that brought up the default contacts page. now when i click on contacts on my screen, it brings that up instead of the incredible PocketCM! this is heartbreaking since i want PocketCM to be my default everything. even if i restart PocketCM it now defaults back to the Windows Contacts page...
any help at all is appreciated, thanks in advance
put this command inside the settings.ini of the skin (.cmt) file.

1. Not sure without looking into it further.
2. On my device I disabled the new text notification. Its now setup that whenever a new text msg comes in it goes to the pocketcm sms screen. The most recent msg's are at the top. Not sure how to change the reply button though.
3. Happened to me.. did a soft reset and it was back to normal again. Give that a try.
Also pocketcm has a forum on their site (www.pocketcm.com). Might wanna try there if you don't get the answers.

2. thats a good idea ill do that and if anything it will trick me into thinking that PocketCM is my default
1. soft reset actually fixed this too, but im wary that it might change...
as for shekhar, what issue is that addressing? making PocketCM the default text app?
thanks a lot for your help

PocketCm

I have uninstalled PocketCM from my device and run a search with Resco to get rid off all files. The problem is when I open my phone up (green phone button) and hit the contacts soft key I get a message saying that the POCKETCM.exe can not be found I get this also with the contact button while on a call. THis is weird because from the home screen the contacts takes me to the random access version of contacts. Any thoughts?

I never encountered that problem, but to get rid of that notification queue, or completely wipe that app from your device, you can perhaps use something like pocket mechanic to delete that notifcation. Or you can install a small app called cleantemp to delete all dead shortcuts hope this helps
i think there is the "old" link to PocketCM on the Contact Button..
go with an Registry Editor to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS\" and change the value of "1" back.. i think it was ":MSOUTLOOK Contacts".. but not sure
Thanks that did it! Wierd the "search" did not pick that up.
Thanks, everyone, for the help.

Touch screen delay after wake up

Don't know if its only me:
- Press END key (goes to standby)
- Press any key (wakes up)
- Quickly tap any icon --> Won't react
You need to wait about 1 second for touch screen to be enabled. No big deal but sometimes you are quick and this kind of "retards" your intention and forces you to do a 2nd tap.
Anyone?

Works fine here. At least I need a second to reach the top of the screen.
here the same but you must be really quick
Yup, annoyes the hell out of me, unlock the phone and use my other thumb to slide to unlock, nothing happens, have to try again and it works.
I am getting that, but is not a show stopper for me. have you try to use the 3rd party locking screen app?
i use s2u2. same problem here. no unlocking in the first one or two seconds after wakeup... does the processor maybe take some time to speed up...?
I don't think its the processor because its actually fast. Must be some internal software delay, maybe the touch screen driver 'wake up'...
Similar problem existed in the HD, i have it, and i tried out a fix posted by one of the forum members, as follows:
1.Make a file named - "welcome.not" and place this in the root of your storage card.
2. Hard Reset your device.
3. You will not be asked the screen calibaration thing, and this will solve your problem.
(How to create "welcome.not" = open notepad on your computed, and safe the blank notepad file with double quotes as : "welcome.not"
This will make the extension of the file as .not
Hope this helps!

Did you mean reset? or clearing the storage
CLEAN STORAGE. (A hard reset, my friend!)
Before making a hard reset i would wait for maybe other fixes or something as i cant imagine that HDs and HD2s problems are the same... Also i didnt figure out this bug on my old HD, even without "welcome.not"...
You can even start the screen alignment whenever you want. So what happens if you do an alignment after applying your fix? Problem back again?
Last thing: I would not recommend a hard reset with your SD-Card in the device as it ruined all my data on it. At least backup all you stuff from the card somewhere on the PC and try this fix with an empty storage card.
EDIT: I completely forgot: there is no screen alignment taking place after a hard reset on the HD2

Well that's weird because I read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2139034&postcount=5 that it only needs a reboot and people confirmed it work that's why I was confused.

I posted an updated fix here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=587931. If you don't want to hardreset, go into the registry and find HKLM\Hardware\DeviceMap\KEYBD and look for the entry "First Calibration." If it's there and the dword is 1 then change it to 0 and manually softreset. That achieves the same thing as bypassing screen alignment. Manually aligning the screen creates this entry, which is why if you use welcome.not and then later realign your screen, the problem comes back. To solve that you have to change the reg key again. I don't have an HD2 so I cannot confirm if the reg is there or if this would work on it, but it may be worth a try.

dont have my hd2 here at the mom (repair) but would be excited about testers and answers. Just cant figure out how screen alignment and wakeup-delay go together...but the thread mentionend in post above makes me hope

Neither in WWE Rom.
But there is a PassCalibration already with value 1.
Mines has the same problem, not very often but the problem is there. After wake up the tap just does not move or register my touch and because hd2 has such a large screen, they should have put the slide to the middle or at the bottom and not all the way to the top to slide unlock the phone.
@Skywatch:
For getting the slider on the bottom, search for Dusk lock screen in the HD Apps forum, and install that and u will get it on the bottom, it looks lovely! and I have 100% belief that it will work on the HD, as its the same OS and Screen resolution.
@All:
Regarding the Welcome.not, i read in the HD forum regarding the tweak, and it clearly said to HARD REST, or Re Flash your device and only then it will work. not with a soft reset.
This is to skip the Screen Calibration which happens after a Hard Reset and that has to be skipped.
if you have done this, and later you re align your screen, then the tweak will fall off its place. Another HardReset or ReFlash will be required.
No problems doing it with a mSD full of data as i have been flashing that way since past 4 years, without any problem. But, up to u!

pckshd, what are the other key entries besides PassCalibration?
It is actually at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH\
Other values are AlignScreenNeeded=0, CalibrationData=287,479 57,96 57,864 518,864 518,96 and some more...
These values are from a fresh hardreset, never calibrated, and actually HD2 does not prompt for alignment. So I don't think the issue is related to calibration.
Delay still there

1.48 ROM appointment calendar bug!

Hi all,
About 2 days running the new 1.48 ROM and found an unexpected bug on the calendar.
Bug is: Try to open a date for example 5 January 2010.
The "New Appointment" tab appears.
Press it and you will have a page where you enter the info about the appointment.
There is a button says "repeat",if you press it you have a drop down menu like that:1)Does not repeat 2)Every Tuesday(or the day of each date you select at the beginning) 3)Day 5 of every month 4)Every Jan.5.
So if you select the first one (does not repeat) and press DONE,ok there is no problem here and the appointment is set ok.
But if you press repeat every Jan.5 (the last option) the appointment is being set on the 5th of December 2010!!!This is happening on every date if you press new appointment and set it repeat every e.g. Mar.16,it will be transfered on December 2010!!
I have checked it also on my friends Diamond2 with custom ROM manila 2.5.19202525 and it has the same problem!
This is a bug with HTC 's calendar application. I've tried this using the HTC application and I too get the same issue you describe. When I try the same exercise using Pocket Informant or directly withing Pocket Outlook the recurring appointment goes on as it should.
Have you reported this issue to HTC? It's significant enough to raise as a genuine error within their software application.
The HTC application is a good attempt at a finger-friendly calendar application, but it's not too good overall if it records appointments incorrectly.
Yes,i think you are right.I will report this error to HTC.
Yes,i think you are right.I will report this error to HTC.
So here is the answer of the HTC for this problem :
Code:
Dear Mr.Lazopoulos

Dear Mr.Lazopoulos
Thank you so much for contacting HTC.
Plese follow the trouble shooting steps below.
1.Kindly check that time and date settings are correct.
2.Please perform Soft Reset to the phone.
Soft Reset :
1. With your thumb or finger, open the back cover by lifting up from the left side of the cover.
2. The RESET button is located at the bottom left below the battery compartment and SIM card slot.
Use a small object with an unsharp, pointed tip such as a toothpick to press the RESET button.
3.Try to create the device from the HTC calendar itsel, not through the touch FLo.
4.If still the same issue, kindly try to perform Hard Reset to the device.
Please assure that you have a copy of all your personal information in order not to loose anything.
If the above steps do not resolve your issue, we invite you to visit the support area on our Web site.

Thank you once again for your continued patronage.
Best regards,
HTC TEAM
I have tried soft resets and hard resets but the problem remains.
Whoever has the same problem please refer it also to HTC!!
This is true, i do have the same bug on my Leo! It does not matter whether i open calendar through touch flo or from Windows Start menu!
My "workaorund" until now:
I set a new appointment with NO repeat option. Afterwards i click "edit appointment" und then i change it with the "repeat every XXX" option. This seems to work properly but cannot be a solution for the future!
Any solutions found yet?
