NO REMINDER SOUNDS, FLASHING OR VIBRATE IN CALENDAR.

START > CALENDAR > NEW > complete SUBJECT,LOCATION, STARTS, ENDS, ALL DAY = NO, OCCURS = ONCE, REMINDER = REMIND ME = 1 MINUTE / 15 MINUTES (tried both, CATEGORIES = NO CATEGORIES, ATTENDEES = NO ATTENDEES, STATUS = BUSY, SENSITIVITY = NORMAL
The above is how I create a new appoiuntment I then see a little bell icon but I get no reminder sounds, flashing or vibrate.
I have checked in START>SETTINGS>PERSONAL>SOUND & NOTIFICATIONS > SOUNDS and checked EVENTS, PROGRAMS & NOTIFICATIONS I have then gone to the NOTIFICATIONS tab and checked to make sure that from the scroll down list Reminders has an associated sound to it and that all other check boxes are ticked.
Also with the appointment visible I select OPTIONS and ensure SET REMINDERS FOR NEW ITEMS is checked.
Can anyone tell me why my reminders are not working
Kind Regards

Hi!
Does a soft reset work?
I had the same problem sometime back on my O2 Mini. I used to get the bell icon but no notification on the screen. A soft reset did not work and the only thing that worked was a Hard Reset.
On my phone the problem was due to a software called Fingerclix. I uninstalled that and hard reset the phone and its been working fine since then.
What software do you have installed on your phone?

Thanks
I only have the standard softwaere installed

Alarm keeps on going off after soft reset! Help please!

Hi,
My prophet's (M600) alarm keeps on going off when I reset the device. There is no notification and no ways to stop it. I have to mute the device for an hour or so, then it "forgets" about it. Any idea why this happened and any ways to stop it apart from hard resetting?
Thanks in advance

Hi,which alarm ? Alarm clock ?

Yes, I think it is the alrm clock. As I said there is no notification saying what alarm it is, but it is the same sound as I used for Alarm clock to wake up in the morning.
Thanks

Maybe a scheduled task registered every day no ?

No. Infact there is no alarm set now. I dont even use it to wake up in the morning. I have turned off the alarm. Still it starts after a soft reset.
Thanks for reply

Do you use a plug today in your today screen ? Next message in pm.

The problem will be a notification in the notify queue that should not be there. For a calendar reminder it will be a calendar.exe notification. Use the attached program to check the notification queue - find the one and delete. For the alarm notification - turn off alarm and check the queue and delete any clock.exe notifications which is the one for alarms. Also goto options/settings and tick both boxes and check for duplicate notifications which will be marked in red - delete those. Do not delete the other notifications they are needed for the normal running of the device.
Activesync your device and run exe from pc.

Thanks for the reply. I tried this using memaid. But no cure. So, I had to hard reset my device. Thanks anyway :roll:

hey, I was having the same problem - and it worked! MemMaid will open the notificaiton queue; from there, I had to look for any "CLOCK.EXE" type notification - I found several that were set for daily alarms, even though they never rang (and I don't remember setting them.) Deleting them did the trick!
THANKS!

help please
So it gets rid of the notifications.
but if i want to use the windows alarm, why does it not show up on the screen when the alarm is going off? I want to be able to snooze.
should i just use a 3rd party alarm?

Worked for me
Yep that program worked for me to. only problem was i had so many clock.exe in the list and you can only select one at a time and it takes its time. but still quicker that reseting my phone up after a hard reset.
cheers

I had the same problems as others listed on here and so I am trying this fix. During the fix I noticed a lot of "null" applications.
What do all the "null" lines mean?
Example: Application - Null
Notify type - CNT_TIME
Event Status - Active
Event Type - NONE
Arguments - (none)
Thanks

MemMaid worked for me too
Hello,
I had the same problem, every notifications didn't display.
I installed DinarSoft MemMaid v2.3, in the QuickClean tab I checked the 4 Notifications-related lines and I performed the cleaning process.
Then a soft reset with the stylus & the small button next to the usb connector.
And then : no more orange led flashes, no more unwanted alarm sounds. And I can use the alarm or calendar notifications again. It works.
Thank you for your posts.

device wake not up after receiving sms

Hi,
my HD2 is not waking up after receiving a sms. The green led is blinking but the display is still "black".
I changed in the "sound & notifications" the setting "Message: New message" -> "Display message on screen" to "yes" but nothing changed.
Installed programs:
Resco Explorer+Registry add-in
Background4allTabs
custom Taskbar Icons
CleanRAM
Duttys Task Manager
Chobit SmartLock
ROM Version 1.43.405.1 (70124)WWE
I uninstalled the SmartLock but the device is not waking up
Is there any other option i forget to set?
Greetings

wakeup on SMS is disabled as default for some stupid reason.
Edit the following reg key (from memory)
\localmachine\drivers\builtin\ril\disablesmswakeup - change from 1 to 0
My device now wakes up perfectly when getting a new SMS

thanks be_vigilant - works great now. maybe you can help me with the vibrations, too.
on my hd the device vibrates if a new sms received. i also set the setting "vibrate" in the sounds & notifications option. Is this also a registry "hack" to activate the vibration for sms?

Hi,
I want to do this too - where is the registery stored???
Cheers

Rewrote the key and still no sound, what could be the reason?

Task notifications disappearing

Hi all,
I use to have a bunch of Outlook tasks with notifications to remind me of various things to do.
With my previous phone (HTC P3300), the notifications stayed there (until dismissed) whatever I did: reset the phone, move from an application to another, whatever. In the Today screen I always had the left soft key displaying "Reminder" indicating that I had some notifications active.
In my new HD2 this is not hte case any more. I am glad I am not wasting my left soft key just for the reminders, but the problem is that my notifications keep disappearing: if I reset the phone, they are gone. I got the habit of snoozing them before resetting, but this morning my 4 notifications were gone, even with no reset!
Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a workaround? Anyone knows what is purging the notifications?
Ciao,
Giovanni

I want to know this as well.
Also is there a app or a way to change the snooze time? For example, to remind me again in 1 hour, but more important notifications, in 10 min...

Hey, i had (have) the same problem. First of all please report this to HTC cos this is a BIG error. What i did is unable htc notification manager, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=631449. That worked for me, also brings back the snooze option. Only problem now that the active reminders dont synx with my exchange or home outlook, but thats something i can live with. Good luck !!

i use the following three reg settings to tweak my notifications.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Shell\Notification\OEM\Reminder
change EnableAutoDismiss from 1 to 0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Shell\Notification\OEM
CustomUIDLL is probably set to NotificationLayout.dll
change it to anything else, (example NotificationLayout2.dll) basically a name that doesnt exist.
UseDefaultUI set to 0
Also, go to settings - menu - all settings - sounds and notifications - notifcations tab - in the dropdown choose 'reminders' and make sure 'show on screen' is checked.
hope these help.

SMS notification disappear after 1 sec

Hello
i have an issue with the sms notification, everytime i receive a new sms/mms, the notification pops up and then disappear after only 1 sec.
This does only happend with sms/mms, not with email or calendar.
can someone help ? can i change something in the reg ?
i have artemis 8.0 (great rom )
Thanks

there is a key that may be worth you having a tinker with.
HKLM/system/shell/notification/OEM/reminder
the key is called 'EnableAutoDismiss' and i think defaults to 1. I set mine to 0 using my personal config cab.
