Hi. I am a novice when it comes to HTC. Have some questions that I need help. When I put the key lock is the entire screen black. Would like to see a clock and date as a screensaver.
How do I change sms sound?
and how to disable the volume buttons?
I hope someone can help me. A very good forum incidentally.
Try S2U2 for your lock. As far as sms, go to settings-> personal->sounds and notifications. Tick notifications at the bottom. On the next screen tick the drop down menu next to "events", choose "new text message" and below choose the sound. Also make sure "Play sound" is checked. I'm not sure how to disable volume buttons...you might try AEbuttons Plus. I believe that's what it's called.
a little more infos on screen lock.. the screen gets completely off because it would drain an infernal amount of battery if it was on displaying some clock like happened, say, in those good old nokias (n70 and the likes). yes, you can install s2u2 which will provide a nicer "unlock screen" with clock and sms notifications and everything but after some idle time (5 minutes max) the screen will turn off anyway.
s2u2 anyway, when enabled, will block the volume buttons.

Phonealarm 1.54 is superb, but it's casuing me a very annoying problem, and I don't know why:
I like to have my phone set to "Vibrate" at all time. By that, I mean clicking the little speaker at the top of all WM5 devices and where you get the 2 sliders for volume of device and phone, at the bottom it has "On", "Vibrate" and "Off".
However since I installed Phonealarm my phone always reverts back to "On" - but I can't seem to work out why, there's no pattern to it - sometimes it just sits there on Vibrate, then next time I use the phone it's back to On. I can't seem to work out if things like going into the Phonealarm setup menu causes it, or clicking an alert in Phonealarm, or whatever - it just seems that after a while it'll revert to "On" without me asking it to, and it's only been happening since I installed Phonealarm.
Any ideas?
phoneAlarm 1.54
Its hard to say with this programme. The developer has built so much into this excellent app for so may devices, there always seems to be one problem or another. I would post a question in the support forum (www.pocketmax.net). Bruce (the developer) is pretty responsive. He may ask you to send a log ad he will try and fix in next version. I am waiting for 1.55, due out on the next few days

I believe you need to put the option to vibrate in all profiles. For exampe in the settings screen, if you go to a particular profile then click on sms notification you need to tick the vibrate option. To get it working on the ring tone as well set the ring option in profiles to "Vibrate and Ring". Remember to do this for all alerts for all profiles!

...dont know what have happend. I dont get the alternative to turn of the alarm, i have to restart it to get it to stop. Is there a quickfix to this bug or an app that works better or something?
Go to Start-Settings-System- Clocks and Alarms-Alarms
Make sure none of the three are ticked.
well i am useing it as my alarmclock in the morning. So thats not the problem. The problem starts when the alarm goes off. I used to get a turn of alarm/snooze buttons on the screen to turn off or not, but that doesnt show.. and when i open de settings for the alarm and unklick in the checkbox it still dont turn it off.... wierd.
i belive i have a similiar problem.. the "pop-up box" asking you to wether to turn of or snooz your alarm has dissapered and won't come out again. yet you can (if accurate enough even though you just woke up) tap the small bell-icon in top of screen bringing up a larger screen with those present icons, click the bell icon again (less accuracy this time) that action will bring up this pop-up box and you get to choose, turn of or snooz. GL
I belive that
Start/System/Clocks and Alarms/Alarms
and from here navigate to the second tab.
Chose the event Reminder and check the event called 'Show alarm on screen'
I do have a danish ROM - I do hope and believe tha I'm on track with the naming of the menus/events.
I have trouble with it too - it seems that it now and then gets unchecked perhaps on a soft reset - I haven't figured out yet - but It's noticed when my alarm goes of in the morning, if I can or can not stop it easily.
As described, clicking on top i taskbar on the Bell is the way to hit the alarm if no popup is available.
Kindly
SOLVED (sounds & notifications settings)
Before when notifications (and most importantly the alarm) went off I am 99 % sure I used to get the popup menu at the bottom of the lock screen with options to either dismiss or pause the alarm. Lately this option on lock screen has now disappeared. Now when the alarm wakes me in the morning I have to unlock the phone, tap the notifications bar on top of the screen to get to the notifications menu and tap the alarm to get to the pop up menu for the chosen notification. If you just want to snooze the alarm, you'll be wide awake by the end of this series of touches.
Do people get the notification popup menu on their lock screens? I sure would like to get this back. Anyone?
PS: I think that this was OK on several occations between my last program install (I think this was updating the cookies home tab to 1.6) and when I first noticed the problem, but I can't really swear on it.
PS2: I have searched to find a thread with this issue, but have just found slightly relating topics (ie in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612775&highlight=notification+lock it seems a guy had to unlock to dismiss but I'm not sure if that was due to password lock. And I did try the "Clean notifications" with pmClean as suggested by post #6. I'm not really sure if this worked though, because it says that the number of notifications are 19 both before and after I apply the cleanup. Does this mean the program doesn't work?)
do you have bsb tweaks installeD? Turn on 'dismiss x notifications' tweak. That reenables the snooze and what not,
also,
settings tab - menu - all settings - sounds & notific - notifications.
call up teh notification you are interested in (new message, for example) and tick 'show on screen'.
Give those a try, see if they help. (Soft reset to make sure teh settings are changed.)
Thanks so much. It was the sounds & notifications settings that did it.
Feeling kind of silly now that it was just a simple setting . But I'm pretty sure I haven't changed it myself so I guess I just assumed it would be something more severe.
Anyhow. PROBLEM SOLVED.
Problem solved! I also forgot that I had already done this before I did a hard reset! Thanks for this post though!
Hi Guys,
I have got the same problem (no dismiss showing up in lock screen), but there is no option for alarms in the Notification Settings. How did you solve it in the end?
Cheers
Hey I am new to these forums and the CM7 ROM for the shift. I put it on last night and I am having some trouble with the notification settings. On the stock sense ROM I was able to set my notifications to vibrate when I got one, mainly a text message. On the CM7 ROM for notifications I can only put it to "no noise" at all or a ringtone, like a beep. I would like to have a vibrate option but I cannot seem to find one. I appreciate all the help. Let me know if you need any more information, thanks.
try this: go into settings then sound setting, then under general tap on vibrate and set it to always..
or u can open up ur messages then hit menu and then settings the scroll down to notifications make sure notifications are checked then go to notification settings and tap vibrate and set it to always

That worked! Thank you, I didnt even think about going about it that way.
I had this problem too...
Go to Settings>CyanogenMod Settings>Interface>Notification Power Widget
Now check "Notification Power Widget" and then go into widget buttons.
Pick whatever tickles your fancy, but make sure toggle sound is on. You can also change the types of sound in the bottom "Sound Modes" Category and you caan change the order if you hit "Back" then "Widget Button Order".
Now reboot your device and when it turns back on, slide down the notification bar and at the top there should be a toggle which looks like Vibrate/Sound/Silent and that's how you change the sound!
I am also having this issue. i have no vibrate on any text messaging or even gmail .
I have the newest cm7, have tried turning vibrate on where ever i could. Wiped and re flashed but have the same problem .
phone will only vibrate on call and when i change from silent to vibrate.
Hi all, before anyone bash me here. I've done some web search and forum search. Just can't find relevant topics of this problem. Hope some of you can feedback positively. Thank
1. Set an alarm, repeated on Sat & Sun with tones & vibration
2. It goes off on time. Nothing was display on lock screen, notification area or setting area.
3. Tap into clock, alarm clock screen, found nothing to stop alarm.
4. Volume rocker, power buttons are not able to snooze or dismiss alarm either.
5. Last option, POWER OFF DEVICE!
Tell me if there's some silly settings that I'm so noob to know.
Did you try and cancel alarm in notification menu?

Refer to my point #2, nothing was displayed in notification area nor status bar. There was no cancel or dismiss buttons anywhere!
what do you see on your device?
i just did a factory reset.
set an alarm. when it goes off, there is a bell icon at Lock screen.
the root cause was that I used multi users lock screen. it just disable the alarm dismiss/ snooze feature.
anyone faced similar problem?
