I bet I'm not the only one that finds the Menupop sound VERY annoying, specially in a crowded area. You need to do something on the XDA and you click the start button (CLICK!) and the crowd goes silent for a sec and turns to you, wondering wth is going on.
So, anyway of turning this sound off? renaming or deleting MenuPop.wav doesn't work. For some odd reason Microsoft has made this sound "an integral part of the pocket pc operating system".
you can disable this by pressing "settings" -> "sounds and notifications" -> then uncheck the box of "events" from the enable sounds for"...right?
What else does this turn off? It seems to turn off a lot of sounds, and not only the click and pop sounds.
Thanks though.
from what i remember it turns of the menu sounds, the clicking sounds when you press an app and other related items. it doesn't turn off the alarms, sms notifications, calendar / task notices, etc.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I have a T-Mobile WM5 MDA and just updated it to the shipping ROM that came out today.
All is well, except for whenever I expand the start menu or a softkey menu, it makes a click sound as loud as the ringtone volume, and whenever I select an item, it does it again. This didn't happen before, so either it wasn't the default or I had worked out how to turn it off. However I can't seem to now.
Little help? Thanks much.
Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Sounds and Notifications
Uncheck next to Events
Voila.
Brilliant, thanks.
Hello all,
I dug into a few WinMo boards, including this one, but couldn't come close to what keeps bugging me. I think I'll give it a try, so mods please accept apologies if this is a repost or if this has been asked before.
I heavily rely on my calendar to remind me of all the stuff I need to remember. In the "sounds & notifications" options, I've set the reminders to play some wav, to vibrate the phone and to display a notification bubble.
The issue is the following: sound & vibrate work fine, but as soon as I perform a soft-reset, the notification bubbles don't show anymore, even if the "display message" option is checked in the settings. I get the little bell icon in the top bar, and from there I can click on it in the HTC action screen to open the bubble, but it doesn't pop up automatically unless I go back to the settings, uncheck the option and save, then go again in the settings, check the option and save.
I tried to clean up the notification queue with SKTools, but it didn't changed anything. I'm pretty sure this bug wasn't present when I bought the phone, about 4 months ago. Is there any tweak or reg hack that would help me circumvent this very nasty annoyance, or should I hopelessly head for an hard-reset ?
Thanks in advance for any help one can bring.
I have the same issue - be interested to hear of any fix.
Me too, also same problem on touch pro.

I get this as well, very irritating
Me too ! This is a very irritating problem, no fix found
anywhere on the Internet
Same here. Its a terrible bug that has plagued Touchflo 3D since the Diamond...
Isn't there a third party app that shows announcements to fix this TF3D issue?
It isn't a tf3d issue, I run a ROM wihtout tf3d and it still occurs. Works fine for a while and then the display bubble stops popping up.
I've tried galarm as a third party alarm solution but this must rely on the system popup to give it focus because the same thing happens.
Very irritating, affects me when my wakeup alarm goes off and I have to mess around for ages to get it to cease.
Are you using wktask ? If so, it is being hidden by it. In your preference under the first tab, check the option for hide the task list when there is no task.

No, although I have used it in the past and it is a very good task manager. Seems to be the settings under sounds & notifications for reminders which revert to unticked "display on screen". I tick it again and it is OK for a few days then it "unticks" itself. Weird. I am using Wisbar Advance Desktop 2 but I can't see that this should affect it.
Its not a wktask or wisbar issue as im not running either of those...
Same problem here.
Has someone found a solution?

I have the same problem - what's the fix???
same problem here
other problems with bubble...
Hi,
I'm having the same problem as above on my Touch Pro 2, but also, if the reminder includes a '&' it shows as a '_' in the bubble. A bit of an ASCII problem maybe?
If HTC is watching, the reminder bubble integration into TF3D has gained us problems and removed the ability to snooze the alarm... not really an improvement.
Problem I have, is that if HTC supply a fix at the ROM level (as with the GPS and SMS fixes) Vodafone won't take it up for months, if ever.
Cheers

same problem here...

I have figured it out the Alarm & calendar notifications issue. These settings will display Alarm & calendar notifications on screen with out clicking the little bell on top of the screen all the time.
Go to Menu --> settings --> Sounds & Notifications under “Personal” tab --> select “Events” under Sounds tab then --> go to “Notifications” tab --> select “Reminders” option from drop-down list for Event field --> Select “Display message on screen” and then click OK on top of the window.
You can select other number of options from drop-down menu to display the notifications.
Hope this will solve most people’s notification issue.
Just got a TD 2. Really love it after using Eten M600 for years.
But, somethings got me stumped. Frequently the device vibrates for a few seconds without any connection to an obvious event. I've checked that the phone ringer is not set on vibrate. I also checked sound & notifications - theres no event that I can see set to vibrate. After it happens, I check the notifications - and there is no event listed there.
So what is causing this to happen?

does it vibrate when u touch the dispaly?
No, just vibrates for no apparent reason.
No calls or events or notifications.
There must be a cause - I just cannot think what it could be.

Did that - box is unchecked.
Still a bit of a mystery.
Thnx for your advice thou!
Does anybody know how I can get rid of this marks on display. They don't disappear automatically as they should. They go away only if I press x. This is very annoying
Go to the accessibility menu in settings, and turn off control phone via large menu and control device with switches.

Update: I disabled the live transcribe accessibility setting and it did the job
