Adding to the "Sounds and Notifications" control panel - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I'd like an entry for my application to appear in the Windows Mobile "Sounds and Notifications" control panel, so users can set their notification preferences to their liking. But I can't find any information about this at all.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

my info background pic

does anyone know how to change the background of my info?
If you're referring to the "Today Screen" where you see stuff like calendar appointments, unread messages etc then do this...
Start -> Settings -> Today -> tick "Use this picture as background" then click "Browse" and browse for an image.
No, the reference is more likely to be for the "my info" screen displayed if the user chose so when the device is awoken or rebooted.

WM6.1 - How to remove wifi connection notification?

Hello everybody,
I recently flashed my Qtek 8310 (Tornado) to WM6.1 Standard.
Whenever I loose wifi connection it gives an annoying audio notification.
I've disabled exclamations, questions and warnings in sound setup but the beep is still there.
Anyone know how to disable it?
Thanks
Ms Vibe
It may be dependant on the ROM you are running, but I have the option in the "Sounds and Notifications" control panel in the "Notifications" section. Find it in the pull down menu: "Wireless Network Detected"
I used this:
"Update June 18 2008 - New WM6.1 Standard ROM from XDA-Developers, made by illi & rickywatt
Download link - http://karhoe.net/myfiles/illi_WM6.1_remade_by_rickwyatt_v2a.zip"
I then installed the connection manager HTC Connan IR+WIFI+VOIP from the Extras.zip Nitros posted.
In Settings -> Sounds I don't have anything about wifi. I don't have a "Sounds and Notifications" menu either.
In Settings -> Connections -> WLAN Settings -> Wifi Networks -> Menu -> Advanced I switched off "Available Network Notification" but that seems to be only about visual notification.
Maybe there is a reg. hack for this?
Which ROM version are you on yourself?

Sorry, I'm using a PPC (T-Mo Wing). I'll look through the registry, perhaps I can find something else. You might try posting in the groups for your phone.
So you're trying to disable an audible notification? <-------- Nevermind... I forgot you already said that.
I wonder if perhaps you have that control panel, but no link to it... might be worth looking into, because if it is indeed present you could still launch it via a shortcut.
Yep, that's right. Thanks for your time.
I have to get some sleep now, but I will dig further tomorrow.

I have this same problem with the recent version of RickyWatt's ROM (not sure if it's specific to his). If I turn on Wifi and let the phone rest for even 30 seconds, it gives a loud beep as if Wifi has gone to sleep (it reconnects when I interact with the phone).
I can't seem to find any corresponding notification for that. I'm considering turning off all notifications because of it.
The notification checkbox switch in "Menu-Advanced" in WiFi settings won't work (I tested different systems). The menu option "Don't show this message again" that is available upon notification's delivery won't work either.
I guess this is the 931,528,149,367,652th bug in WM6.
The only solution is to let the notification to be processed, and set a quiet notification action to be associated with it:
1) Open Menu>Settings>Personal>Sounds&Notifications>Notifications
2) In the events' selector, choose "Wireless LAN detected"
3) Make sure that both the "Show message on screen" and "Switch screen on" options are unselected, BUT SELECT AT LEAST ONE OTHER NOTIFICATION ACTION: IF YOU LEAVE ALL OPTIONS BLANK, THE DEFAULT NOTIFICATION WILL STILL BE PERFORMED. I recommend setting the vibration as the only action.
4) Close options' mask
With these settings, your machine will still vibrate when a WiFI-LAN is detected, but at least it will stay quiet and no annoying messages will pile up in the pipeline of notifications.
At the same time, the networks for which you may have set up an automatic connection will simply hook up as soon as they get detected.

Alerts and Notifications sound panel bug?

I noticed yesterday that after looking at the sound and notifications panel in the 'Windows Mobile' Control Panel, all of my alerts had been set to the main ringtone of my device.
I set them to their correct values then opened the Windows Mobile Control Panel again. Those items I looked at here (Message, Reminders etc.) had once again changed to that of the main ringtone when I checked their settings in the HTC Sounds and Notifications panel.
Has anyone else noticed this? I am using the most recent ROM released (28th?) May 2010.

[Q] NFC tag to mute only the email application?

I want to be able to mute the Samsung "Email" app (work email) when I'm at my desk. Reason is, I don't need three devices alerting me that I have an email when I'm already sitting there starting at outlook. However, I don't want to completely mute my phone. I still want other alerts, ringtones, and notifications to work. I just want to turn off the notifications for the default "Email" app. Is this possilbe? I have a handful of writable NFC tags. I couldn't find any app in the playstore that offered this as a standard option. The only option I could find is muting the entire phone.
I see the Email App can be muted two different ways, could be many more:
1. Settings > Sound > Samsung applications > Email > [account name] > "Email notifications"
2. "Email" app >Settings > Account Settings > [account name] > Notification Settings > "Email notifications"
Any help would be great! Thanks!

Bypass Do Not Disturb for specific app/s

Any way to do this? I need to bypass do not disturb for a home security app. Can't see it anywhere.
Settings > Apps & Notifications
Select the app you want.
Tap Notifications
For each of the options that have a check box, tap on the option name, not the check box.
At the bottom of the list is Override Do Not Disturb. Toggle on.
Wow thanks. I guess that's how you bury something into the menu...
