Anyone know how to "fix" this problem:
You can set notification ON when a new rss feed appears.. but i can´t change the tone for it! The standard tone for it is horrible i think.. so is there an option to change this tone or to set it that just the rss icon appears on the homescreen without any sound?
Slightly late reply to this one, but the settings for RSS Hub's notifications are in the registry, in HKCU\Control Panel\Notifications\{695F6B37.....}. There's a String value in there called Wave, which points to the sound file used for the notification.

How to refresh the speaker icon on the taskbar?
You know: when you change from sound (on) to vibrate or silence (off), this icon changes its image.
I can change volume levels programatically, I can change this three radio boxes programatically too, but in this way the icon does not change.
I tried to send message to HHTaskbar to refresh the window - nothing,
Send message to Desktop, Send broadcast message - nothing.
Any ideas?

I'd try fiddling with the registry. Dump it to files while the different icons show, and see if you can find the difference. That's how I change the phone volume programatically on WM2003. How are you changing the system-volume (because I can't get the registry fiddeling to do that for me)

The clock of WM stop ring after 1 or 2 ring... can I set it continue to ring until I stop it please?
Up,
Is there a hack in the registry to change the repeate of the reminder/alarm please? The alarm default of WM is too poor, it ring 1 or 2 times and stop (the distance between 2 ring is also very long), it's impossible to wake up with that.
I don't understand why, to this version WM6, crosoft do not fix this problem and let WM user look for always an alternative software solution
Ya I don't know why WM has such a crappy alarm interface.
I'm finiding the ringer to lack mp3 support and also repeating the alarm.
I know about 3rd party programs SPBtime/Chronos, but I'm afraid its going to kill battery for something that WM should already have been doing.

How to Enable Repeat Play Audio Sound Notifications in Windows Mobile
How to Enable Repeat Play Audio Sound Notifications in Windows Mobile
=====================================================
In Windows Mobile Pocket PC smartphone device, user can configure and set sounds and notifications alert for various events and activities that happening on the device. The notification alerts can be playing a custom selected sound, ring tone or tune, display message on screen, flash keypad light, or vibrate.
And user can customize their favorite alert music audio and notification method for events such as incoming new e-mail messages, MMS messages, SMS text messages, missed call and voice mail the phone received. However, the notification alert for each event happens just once for one time. Supposedly, it’s possible to set the notification such as beeping and playing audio sound recurringly and repetitively until user acknowledge the e-mail, MMS, SMS or other events.
There is an option of “Repeat” for “Playing sound” in “Sounds & Notifications” control panel of Windows Mobile. However, the “Repeat” check box is always grayed out and disabled for most events, except few events such as Reminder. So user cannot select “Repeat” option in order to make notification alert recurring and repeat.
There is registry hack that able to enable the “Repeat” check box in “Sounds & Notifications” control panel. To perform the change on Windows Mobile registry, a registry editor such as PHM Registry Editor, Mobile Registry Editor or CeRegEditor is required.
In Registry Editor, navigate to the following registry key branch:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications
There is a lot of registry sub-key inside the Notifications folder. Search through one by one to find and locate a registry entry that has its Default (REG_SZ) value as the name of the event. For example, Messaging: New e-mail message, Messaging: New text message, Messaging: New MMS message, Phone: Missed call and etc.
Once found the correct registry sub-key that represents the event that you want to enable the “Repeat” option, edit the value data for Options value name. Change the value to 1073741835 (in Decimal base) or 4000000B (in Hexadecimal HEX base format). Save and exit from registry editor.
Now the Repeat check box is enabled, and user should be able to set repetitive and recurring event notifications.
The alerts appear to completely stop at 10 minutes.
For example a text message comes in, you get an alert
You get an alert every 30 seconds for 3 minutes
You get one alert at 5 minutes
You get one final alert at 10 minutes
Tweak and Configure How Notifications Work in Windows Mobile Notifications
Tweak and Configure How Notifications Work in Windows Mobile Notifications
=========================================================
Windows Mobile powered device (including WM5, WM6 and WM6.1) has a registry key that allows user to tweak, control, configure and customize how notifications work in the mobile Pocket PC (PPC) device. For example, whether a notification should shows or hides the icon in taskbar, play notification sound, pop up notification bubble for user to dismiss or vibrate.
One notification that can be configured via the said registry key is SMS sent notification, other than the SMSNoSentMsg registry key. Then Options registry entry, under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\Default registry branch, when changed to reflect user own preference, may affect other notification in Windows Mobile device too, especially those unable to configure via Sounds and Notifications control panel GUI.
To perform the registry hack to configure different settings for notifications in Windows Mobile, run any registry editor on Windows Mobile device (such as PHM Registry Editor) or remotely access mobile device registry with CeRegEditor from desktop PC, and then navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\Default\Options
Then, change the DWORD value to any of the following value, which also shows its corresponding results on notification respond, depending on user’s preference:
• 0 - Show icon
• 1 - Show icon and play notification sound
• 2 - Show icon and vibration
• 3 - Show icon and vibration and play notification sound
• 4 - Same as 0
• 5 - Same as 1
• 6 - Same as 3
• 7 - Same as 3
• 8 - Show icon and notification bubble
• 9 - Show icon and play notification sound and show notification bubble
• 10 - Show icon and notification bubble and vibration
• 11 - Show icon and play notification sound and show notification bubble and vibration
• 13 - Same as 1
The change takes effect effectively.
I'm using a Japanese Hermes and for some reasons I can't find Message sent (SMS) notification when I go to Start - Settings - Sounds & Notifications - Notification Tab.
I know the registry tweak is somewhere in HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\ but I don't know which one because the Default key is missing as well. I need your help guys.

Ok, maybe my first post was difficult to understand. Here's what I'm trying to say.
This is the notification key for battery low warning:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D663-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}
For new MMS message:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\{29C3570E-5483-4cb0-9B57-5CFED893AC45}
For sending MMS:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\{29C3570F-5483-4cb0-9B57-5CFED893AC45}
Please help me find the key for sending SMS. Thank you.
I finally found the solution.

Hi all,
I can't seem to change the settings for the notification of SMS and e-mail messages. Both seem to make the device come out of standby, play the notification sound, and show the blinking green light. It's annoying, and I can't seem to be able to change it (even with the TD2 tools).
Any one with the same issues?
Thanks
Have you turned off notifications for SMS in Sound Settings? Also, there's a cab floating around called SMS tools or something that may have this tweak.
or
Use a regsitry editor and go to the key:
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL
Set DisableSMSWakeUpEvent to 1
If the entry does not exist, you will have to create it.
A few months ago I moved from Windows Mobile 6.5 to Android. A feature I miss a bunch is the ability to have my scheduled tasks alert me. Using Android the task alert is the text message alert. I have been unable to find a way to make my tasks have a separate alert. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Thanks!
Are you referring to the notification ringtones? because you can change that through the settings in the calander app to make it something different than the default.

yes that is what I am referring to... however if I change the notification ring tone it changes the text message ring tone.
Tasks
I have all my schedules for work in my phone set up in my calander, since i also came from a Windows phone (Q9C) i was using outlook for all my apts. THere is a exchange program u can use thru google that will link the 2 and bring all your tasks into your new calander on your phone. U can then set each event to alert u a set time before, just like in WINM0b. I set mine up to alert me 1 hour before i work and if the phone is on silent, theres a icon on top left screen telling me theres a event. u can also set up sounds. I hope this helps, and hope the info helps u. I am running Dk28 Froyo and there are some differences, so if some of this makes no sense, thats prob the reason. the program thru google is google calander. seach for it, it works

When you change it through the calendar app, it only effects notifications from that app, the default notification ringtone will remain the same. Also, you can specify a specific notification ringtone through the messaging app, and gmail as well, and have them all be something different than the default notification ringtone that is set through the main settings->sound menu.
Open up the calendar app, hit the menu button, select settings, then change the ringtone for that app.
All my appointments are through google calender. I am running Froyo (Bonsai MOD). The one hour thing is what I have as well... the issue I am having is my text msg alert seems like it has to be the same as the task alert. I liked having my task alert long(like a ring tone) and I like having a short text msg alert.

wow... just wow. I really feel like a noob. It was so simple. Thanks!
You can also DL tone picker from the market. It will give you a few more selections when trying to change notification tones, including the use of music found on your SD card. Just a lil FYI if you're not too big on system tones only.

Thanks for the heads up however "Select music" is installed by default and will let you do the music from your SD card thing(all my ring tones are there)
You can also just create a directory on your sd card and place your audio files there. On your sd card, create a directory with folders as such
sdcard
|-media
--|-audio
----|-alarms
------|-random.mp3
------|-random.ogg
----|-notifications
------|-another.mp3
------|-another.aac
----|-ringtones
------|-you_get_the_picture.mp3
------|-insert_audio_file_here.wav
