Startup: empty notification - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General

Whenever I turn my phone on it shows an empty notification "bubble". Also in the top bar next to the G/3G icon is an extra icon, the one that shows up when you change keyboard input to numbers. It just stays there... Also the lower-left "softkey" turns to Notification instead of the usual Agenda.
I can only get rid of it by opening up a new sms/mms/email, because then the icon for t9/abc/numbers needs to be used, so it sort of refreshes the icon and it goes away when I exit the sms/mms/email.
Now I was just wondering if there's any way to fix this? It's bugging me, although not to a degree at which it would be frustrating, but still... I'd rather not have to go through the above mentioned steps everytime I turn my phone on.
I think it's too minor of a problem for flashing my phone. So, any suggestions on what to do? Thanks!

hi - tap start/ settings in personal tab tap "lock" untick box listed "prompt if device unused for" this sovled for me

Thanks! That worked. I'll leave it like this for the moment, but if there's a way without turning off the lock please let me know.

it's a known bug.
i haven't seen it since i flashed the niki project ROM.

Aww, ok.
Guess there isn't much else to do then. I'll wait for an HTC update.
(Anyone know when WM 6.1 will be here for the touch dual? )

Then Niki Project ROM runs WM6.1. Try it. I have it on my Niki and it's fantastic!

Phone app will not close / Programs window won't close

The most annoying thing ever!
The bloody app/programs window wont close!!
And not even hitting the k/b win logo > Today will work either.
Not even magic button works - only a soft reset will do it . then you are waiting till you either use the phone or venture stupidly into MyPrograms
Bloody infuriating..
anyone have a solution?
cheers guys,
LR
The phone app works best if you mark it as "Keep Alive" and "Don't show when inactive" in Magic Button. I've seen the "Programs" issue you mentioned, but selecting "Today" always gets rid of it for me.
Cheers,
Steve.
thx I will give the M. Button options a whirl!
Did you guys found a solution on the small blank square spot on the upper right hand corner of the screen where the OK button lies when using Magic Button?
Sorry - not sure what problem you are refering to...
Cheers,
Steve.
No problem with Magic Button...
For killing phone app, I found 2 utilities working...
First Xbar3...let you show the phone app and a trick to kill it.
Second one...http://www.vijay555.com/index.php?Releases:VJPhoneToggle works on 2003se and 2005 Qtek 9000.
Curious. Why would you want to close the Phone app?
Isn't it the whole point of the device?
If you use your pocketphone more as a pda than a phone, the phone app takes somme Mb of memory... Really closing it after a call give you the possibility to take some precious Mbytes back for running programs...
VJOkButt also has a specific option, -phclose, to close the phone after each use - very useful when assigned to the red hangup key with AEButtonPlus.
Note, closing the phone doesn't stop the phone ringing, so does save you some memory without sacrificing the phone's functionality, but it does cause a minor incompatibility - trying to dial from Contacts may crash out.
However, in day to day use I don't recommend closing the phone unless you're really tight on mem.

Actually, it is not a problem but an aesthetic concern on my part. I am not using any skin program. The last time I tried Magic Button, if I am at the today screen with no open application, the location on the upper right hand corner where the "OK" button is shows a blank square. I was just wondering if I am the only one who had this oddity.
I have no skinning soft and I don't have a blank square... The color of that part of the taskbar, when nothing written, is the same than the rest of the bar. But I read stuffs like yours on other forums...

I can't seem to find this option in Magic Button. Can you please direct me on how?

Wing locking itself

I swear I did not change any settings, but starting yesterday my Wing would just lock itself when the screen shuts off. Anyone know how to disable this? Thanks
*edit*
another odd thing I noticed - I don't have to unlock when the phone's charging. very weird.
what programs are you using? If you hold down the end key for a second, the phone will lock. Maybe you are accidentally bumping it when you put it in your pocket or case.
Sorry I wasn't more specific... I'm running ttran's OpenTouch 3.0. when I turn on the screen (using the power button) I need to press unlock twice to get to the main menu. It's annoying and I'd like to get rid of it. idk... I didn't change anything and it just randomly started happening yesterday. help?
I agree with you PharmacySchool...I'm running Ttran's 3.0 ROM myself and the "locked" feature pop-up on me this afternoon, out of the blue. It is very annoying and I'm not sure what caused it to start happening. Was getting an address out of the contacts list, X'ed out of contacts once finished, clicked the power button to turn the screen off...next time I went to use the phone, it magically was locked and has been since. A real pain to have to hit the unlock button twice just to use the phone. Have played around a little with it, but no success on correcting the problem yet.
Make sure you're not overclocking the phone. This can cause lock ups if the CPU overheats or if it doesn't get the required voltage or for other reasons.
The lock I'm referring to and I believe PharmacySchool...is like a "key lock". How some phones have an option to lock the keys so it can't accidentally call someone if numbers get pressed by mistake or while in your pants pockets. Nothing to do with the CPU or it being overheated. All you have to do is press the button to turn the screen light off and instantly turn it back on...it's locked. You have to hit the "unlock" button on the bottom left hand corner and the tap the unlock button on the screen. After doing such...you can once again use your phone.
I have the answer!!!

I'm pretty knew at this but I ran into the same problem and I figured out how to fix it. I don't know all the fancy wording so bare w/me. On your main screen touch and hold your battery symbol/ 6th option down says DeviceLock with a green check/ uncheck that **** and your good to go.
NOW someone PLEASEEEEE create a slide 2 "answer" not a slide 2 lock. I am so tired of my phone answering its self in my pocket when I don't want it to.
A_C 's S2U2 has a slide to answer feature..... You should check it out.

I've installed S2U2-0.2-WM5 with Touch It v2.3 and had problems. I think I remember it having a slide to answer but I also remember it answering with the green button as well. Maybe there was a way to disable it but I don't know how.
Does it work better Open Touch v3.0. because thats what I'm running now.
WOW... thats an OLD version.... that version should not have the slide to answer.....Current Version is 0.99p. It can be found in the development and hacking forum. You'll need to enable the S2A feature with the settings program...Man the apps come a LONG way since your version...We got animated gif support, Random still backgrounds, an exceptions list so voice dialers will work properly and internet browsers will stay alive... Just try the new version.

Wierd message cancel thing

Hi there just wondering if anyone had/has this problem and knows how to fix it. Basically when i go to reply to a text message by clicking on it (from inside TouchFlo) the keyboard appears, then dissapears. When i click on the box to type, the keyboard comes up, then jumps back down. I have to press the 'Keyboard' button when the keyboard is down (to bring it up) then type somthing (which doesn't appear) and then press space...to even start typing anything. It's really odd, i've tried re-flashing both stock and a few other ROM's...same wierd problem...anyone?
THANKS!
I also have the same problem. If i double tap a message from within touchflo there is no problem but if i tap it once i have the keyboard problem. It has been bugging me for a while as well! Although it's not major, if anyone has a fix it would be much appreciated.
haha it's really annoying the double clicking things doesnt work for me...anyone got a fix? also what rom are you running? thanks
Deleted....
talking to some of my friends, i've realised that this happens on general windows mobile, not just this phone, therefore i will re-post in order to gain more publicity. Thanks
Fortunately for me, everything is working fine, as in the manuals, even after using this set for over a year now. When I click "reply" from within TF, it automatically gives a text/message typing area and a keyboard area at the bottom half which stays there. I can drop the keyboard down (and up) by tapping (once) the keyboard icon at the bottom centre. no problem.
ha! it's lucky for some! What ROM are you using? Thanks

hi just wondering if anyone has managed to fix this, it is getting REALLY annoying now ahha thanks

Hi all, got a question

I looked and searched (a few forums also) and cant find an answer. I have a TMOUS HD2 with their new ROM freshly installed (yesterday) and when I get a text message it will show the message but the only option I have is to "Hide" it. I tried clicking on it and everywhere else but it wont open the message unless I go to "Messages" so is there a reg edit I can do to get it to show "open" instead of hide...Thx...Tj
P.S. I would rather not install any programs but would like to work with what the phone has.
Hmm am I the only one with this problem?
no this isn't exactly a problem. This is a feature that is on the phone where if your at your lock screen or your display screen iss hut off thats what shows when you get to the lock screen. It's so you can view your text and who it's from before you unlock your phone and go into their threaded message.
I'm sure there is a way to disable it via reg but not sure.

OK but I do not have the screen locked. I can see the message and who its from but to open or reply I have to go to messages because the only option is to "hide" it...Tj
as with all things it can glitch. if you have your lock screen disabled but then you hit your right button for end call to turn off the display then touch another button to bring it back it could possible bring that up. I will see if I can find someone that knows the answer.

anyone know if this is possible???

hey Guys hope you can help..
Prior to upgrading to stock rom 1.72 - i remember everytime the device was connected to wifi or mobile internet there was a timer on the notification screen to show how long the device was connected. Htc have removed this on the 1.72 Rom i thought it was quite handy to keep track as you know the device is very sensitive eg its always connecting to internet if i forget to lock it properly so my question, is there anyway i can get this back working on the hd2 notification screen?
is this possible??let me knowTHANKS
is there a way this can be done
tap the signal/battery icons at the top, it should bring up a balck notifications screen, which shows connected time.
samsamuel, i have and its not there! it hasnt been there since the 1.72rom has been out..any idea why?
nope, sorry, its there on 2.x roms. COuld it be that you have uinstalled something that has an activation area that is covering that part of the top bar? (Ark switch for example)
Does anything come up when you tap there? or nothing at all?
When I tap I get the notification screen when connected to wifi or mobile Internet it just says connected where the timer use to be.. I'm sure most users on stock1.72 would agree?
i dont think i uninstalled anything -whats ark switch about?
ark switch is a task manager, which by default the click area is teh top left of teh task bar, but i know that you can configure teh click area manually, and i once did this myself and forgot, and i had put teh click area over teh top of teh icons, so the notification area stopped coming up.
However, its not that, cos you said the black screen still comes up. (Good task manager tho..)
I am on the stock 1.66WWE ROM. When I click on the top of the screen, I am taken to the black 'Notifications' screen.
If I am currently usiing my operator's data connection, it will show that I am connected and how long I have currently been connected for.
thanks both, i dont understand why htc removed this..can anyone else on stock1.72 confirm that this is not available so i know its not a fault on my device thanks

Why just not flash to a HTC 1.66 ROM, as it is the same as the 1.72 Telephone company ROM but without the telephone company's add-ons (bloatware)?
