I now have the push email up and running but I can't seem to get my device to wakeup when I have new mail. I have to keep turning it on to see if I got new mail or not. This can be very annoying. Is there any way around this?
I have looked in notifications and under "new email message" I have it selected to display on screen and vibrate. What else do I need to change?
Hi DanITman,
I've got the same problem here.
With my HP6340 this works perfectly so when I bought the wizard I expected the same, but not.
Seems to me that active sync can’t wake up the wizard even if you change the registry to wake up WLAN after standby.
So if there is someone else who could help as that would be much appreciated.

I have no problem getting mail while in sleep mode. I just want it to notify me when I do receive mail by waking up and vibrating. Or stay in sleep mode and just vibrate. I would be happy with that. I just think that the push email is useless unless I get notified when an email comes in so I can respond promtly. I'm glad to see others are having the same problem and hopefully a fix will come out soon.
So if I understand you correctly your device can receive e-mail when it's in standby?
Do you use GPRS or WLAN for push e-mail?
I think you might have checked notification under sounds in the settings screen?

I use GPRS/EDGE for all of my email. ActiveSync works fine in sleep mode. However, when mail does arrive I don't know it until I turn my device back on manually, making the whole push email thing useless because i still have to check to see if I have received new mail or not. Under notifications I have it set to vibrate and show on screen when new email arrives (which it does) but only if its not in sleep mode or once I turn the device on manually it will begin to vibrate to tell me new mail has arrived.
Sorry can't help you with this one mate.
But you’re right, why no notification when your device is in standby.
Seems to me that there is no difference i notification between receiving an SMS or E-mail when you use push e-mail.
Maybe a bug in the test rom?
We will se when there is an official one.
Same issue here. Was never an issue using the old psuedo-push sms system with the old ROM.
Anybody know what the effect of never going into full standby mode would be on the battery? In other words, the screen backlight off but never in standby?

I have never been able to get this to work even when I had ActiveSync set to sync every 5 minutes with the old ROM. It wasn't a problem if you used the old SMS push system because the sms would wake the device up. I was hopeing it was my fault and I was missing a setting but it seems its happening to everyone. Its a pain in the ass.
I did some testing and found out that I can get it to play a sound in standby mode when I have a new email but it won't vibrate. Since my device is only syncing when told too by the server I am going to see if I can get it to vibrate at the end of an activesync and that could possible work.
Setting ActiveSync to vibrate after its finished doesn't work either. Even when the device is on
I was hoping that the "Wake Up to Full Power Mode" tweak in Tweaks2k2 might solve this one, but alas no go. Bummer.

Thanks for trying that. I think MS needs to get this figured out if they want these devices to be BlackBerry killers. Push email is useless if I don't know that I have email the minute it comes in.
this may not help, but it's worth a try......
i put my Wizard (with the new Rom) into a car cradle which is always powered..........therefore the unit is always on.........if the current program on screen is Inbox, then new email coming in does not sound the notification sound.......
if Inbox is running in the background or not at all, then i get the notification sound.......
so........ i tried at home both methods and even when switched off, Inbox needs to be running in the background and not the current program for the sound to notify in an off/standby state
but........ i do get sound notification in standby as long as it is running in the background (ie, when you switch it on, Today screen or Phone or any other app is the 1st thing that greets you)
i regularly get the sound going off through the evening whilst in standby mode....
I know it doesn't solve you problem, but Goodlink got it right.
I will get sound and vib while the unit is in stand-by.
you would thing MS would be able to do the same...
I assume its a glitch that will be fixed soon. Does anyone know where in the registry notifications are kept? I would like to do some searching to see what I can find.
Same problem...
I have the very same problem. Had it before the AKU2 ROM and still have it now. I have taken to using MortSaver and never putting the device in standby...battery doesn't seem affected. Still, rather have this working like it's supposed to out of the box...hope someone can find a solution!

Thanks. I am going to try this -- do you know if the program, which I assume is running in the background all the time, has any impact on device performance?
I have the Cingular 8125 and I love it, but I also have the same problem. I have Goodlink installed and if my device is sleeping it will not vibrate when emails come in. It will make the sound but no vibration. I am currently using Mortsaver for now to keep the device running with the screen off, so that I can feel the vibration and know that I have received an email.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Can anyone verify if this has been fixed in the new Kjam ROM. I don't want to upgrade until this gets fixed. The qtek test ROM is working really well.

I still can't believe that MS has screwed this seemingly fundamental feature up.
In any event, the workaround I am trying at the moment involves the new version of AEPButtons plus. Using this program, I set a double click PIE button action to turn the screen off. In settings, I have unchecked the "Turn Device off after" button so the device never goes to sleep. When I holster or put down my K-jam, I double click the PIE button to turn off the screen and save battery life/prevent accidental key presses. Since the device never truly goes to sleep, the email notifications still come and I get the vibrate telling me an email has arrived. At night or when I don't want notifications, I press the power button. It's not a perfect solution, but it seems to work OK and I don't seem to be missing as many emails coming in.
Hi there, due to the fact that the search option doesn't work with less then 4 characters, i can't search for "sms".
But here's my real problem:
I've flashed different roms into my mda vario, after unlocking it. First the Molski.biz rom, then the last original t-mobile rom, but it was toooo slow, i've imediatly deleted it, en flashed the mr clean rom.
But in all roms i have some delay in recieving sms-messages.
Half the time they appear directly after they were sent by my friends, but sometimes i get them after a few hours. for example: it was sent at 15:00, and i received it at 17:30.
And sometimes i don't get any sms-messages, and after an soft-reset, i get 10 at one time, all delayed.
does anyone know what to do about it? or what causes it?
Regards,
Twan
i sometimes get this too though not often its usually when my phone loses signal and when it comes back into signal it wont recevie txt messages until i soft reset or send another txt out then ill get like 4 all at once lol.
Wizard isnt the best phone for txtin i must say as i send a good 1,000 txts a month and so far its poor.
Sounds like a network issue to me...
The network isn't registering the phone or something similar. For SMS the towers "push" the messages to the phone. Queuing them when they don't detect the phone on the network. If the phone is on the network and not getting the messages until it is reset and forced to re-acquire its signal than it is a network problem.
I've seen this problem on a few networks regardless of phone make and model.
I would agree with the above, its a provider issue not a phone issue.
I have a debate with Orange about 10 years ago about not getting text messeges when I loose and then regain service. I was told that when a text is sent to a phone that is off or lost a signal the message is stored until a set time has passed and then delivery is retried, thus getting all the messages at once. The way 'around' this is the disconnect the phone from the network and re-connect. This forces a scan of the message queues and again you will get all messages in one go.
I would assume going in to Flight Mode and back will do the same thing as a soft boot, but I have not tested this.
Okay,
so i could suggest it's not quitte an rom- or wizzard-issue, but a network-issue.
I also think going to flightmode and back will solve the problem. So we will hear from you if that's a solution?
I'm busy reflashing a new rom into my wizzard.

I've tried, but now there's nobody who has sent me an sms
ghehe, i'll wait....
but i do think it will work.
i'll keep you posted
This is happening to me all of a sudden and its not a network issue. I have 4 phones on my account and i texted between all of them and only my phone won't get the messages UNLESS I reboot my phone or use smartskey to close a window.
Here is the strange part, when a text message is sent to my phone, the screen turns on, but doesn't show the message pop.
Is smartskey blocking it?
Also, closing a window by clicking on the X also kicks the message to come through
Could I ask a mod to get this thread sticky!?!
I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to get all the Software/Hardware bugs that comes on our Nikis together on one thread to make it easier for everyone to find fixes to their problems!

I would say, we should also add a little bit of explanation of the bug.
I dont have any of the above mentioned bugs!
Should also add the ubiquitous Qualcomm 7200 driver issue, resulting in poor scrolling performance (most noticeable on large pages in IE) and below par video performance (unless you get the special QTV version 1.13 of Core Player).

That's not a Niki specific issue and there is no (and probably there will be non) fix for it, so I believe it shouldn't be posted as part of the above list
Few more...
I have a few more over here, well.. different ones to be precies:
On receiving an sms that includes country code (+31 in my case) I can response once, when receiving an answer on That sms msg.. I cant anymore, phone keeps failing to send the sms.
Fix: no idea.. currently just create a new sms msg with the same number and send my sms's.
thought it was a glitch at first but has happend alot lately, reset doesnt solve the problem.
This might be a software depending problem though as I havent tested it after a hard-reset yet.
2nd.. a feature, mentioned earlier by others. The Slider reacts to magnets!
(good to know if you like having a case with magnetic clips on it)
with reacts I mean it invokes the slider functions when a magnet is close to the back of the phone, results in unwanted calls etc.
3rd.. Phone polling..
When someone calls me it takes 4-5 rings on their side before my phone actually rings, which isnt a provider feature it seems (different phone, same sim no problems what so ever).
Leads to alot of missed calls and.. hell of alot of voicemails.
Workaround: Disable your provider voicemail.. still annoying though.
Fix: well.. yes actually.. I found that on my Niki model setting the GSM/3G band to 900+1800 + 2100 Instead of Auto solves the problem.
App. the Niki also likes to roam the 1900 band when on auto, which seems to be causing my polling problem. My country doesnt use the 1900Mhz band.

Hello!
Thank you for the update!
Added two of your requests. I would say that this problem really comes from your provider. I never experienced a similar problems and I don't think there are any other counts of people having it neither. Please check with your provider
Agreed, fully, I do suspect the provider, but also found a few other posts about it on the net and some here, which is why I figured i'd share the info.
link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351082&highlight=voicemail&page=2
for some providers its possible to set the amount of rings before voicemail kicks in, also a good workaround I think.
So indeed, not a Niki specific bug, more provider + niki bug :S
Thnx for posting the others!

wow thanks.... gave that a go... and it seems to have improved. Before it was about 3 rings before the phone reacted, after changing the settings, its only about one ring.

I don't think it actually stops responding. The thing is, Windows folder is a very big folder and it takes quite a few seconds for the explorer to open it. Try again, but be patient, wait like 30secs max. If it doesn't work try Resco Explorer, its the one i'm using now and it's faster

On the note about the phone thinking the slide has been opened when it's near a magnet. I've got a magnetic car holder and stick the phone to that when I use co-pilot. Everytime I mount it, it opens the quick list for a few seconds before it times out. If I then slide the phone open with it still mounted, nothing, then when I slide it closed the quick list comes up.
I'm assuming the slide uses magnets of some sort to work out when it's opened. Is mounting my phone on this magnetic holder going to do any damage do you think?
Hi Guys,
as I am a noob on this forum, i searched around, but couldn't find anything related to my problem.
I do have my brand new Treo Pro (aka Treo 850) and I am having some trouble. When there is an incoming call, I answer it, but after a few seconds - just from nowhere - the flightmode gets active and the phonecall is droped. Maybe even only the phone is switched off... I can not see any difference. While the call is incomming there is no bluetooth active, the batterystate is good, no wifi connection...
I am really sad and frustrated, I switched from an older treo 650 where this problem happens, too. I thought there it has been due to his age, but now – with the same looking problem on my new Treo Pro (850) I am going mad.
Some more Info:
The touchscreen is locked at this time. The callduration was about 10 seconds max.
Could this be some incopatibilty with some of the installed programms, like TCPMP for example?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Yours JamFX
Hi JamFX, I'm a heavy user of my Treo Pro for work and have lots of apps installed; I've never experienced this problem.
You could try uninstalling one app at a time and hope you find the problem that way.
Otherwise try a hard reset if all else fails?
Good luck.
I was having the same problem...
just found that was my mistake...the phone let the touch screen active during calls and it's too sensitive so, your ear hit the signal info icon, hit the comm manager and there activate the air plane mode...you need to answer the call and hit lock that appear on the screen options and there is, no air plane mode active again...
Hope this work for you!
Thanks so far...
Hi Everybody,
thanks for your hints so far. What I've done so far is:
- Uninstall TCPMP
- checked if "lock screen during calls" is active -> was activated...
So I think, that the last solution was quite a good hint, but not for my case. I thought of this, too, so i tried this ;-)
Until now, I didn't had problems, but until now I didn't have so many calls to check. Lets see. I will report them here. If there are any similar cases known please don't hesitate to post.
Thanks
Yours JamFx
