Can we fix this bug once and for all?

Can we please fix the stupid bug that has plagued HTC Touch flo devices since the Diamond..
The fact that notifications dont display on screen. This could be email, sms, tasks or reminders. You have to tap on the icon on the top of the screen, tap two more times just to display the notice. Before the notice would just appear on screen.
I know in sounds/notifications you can set the option 'display on screen' - this works until you soft reset your device, then it reverts back to 'dont display on screen'. What on earth is causing this? something in the registry?

Strange, I don't have this bug using the stock ROM.
The notification bubble is always here. However, when I use WKtask, it can be hidden behind it although no task is running. I can make the bubble visible if I tick the preference/general1/Hide the task-list when there are no tasks option.

Sorry, but dont believe you. This bug has affected Touchflo 3D since the beginning.

i'd reccomend switchin to GAlarm (or Klaxon) and then (if u'd like) link it to the clock so it launches instead of the wm6 alarm settings

how is this done?

G-Alarm looks very promising. Linking to it from the today screen sounds like a good feature.

This is caused by TouchFlo.
You can disable this behaviour:
Start -> Settings -> System -> TouchFlo -> disable the third option (I'm on a German ROM so I don't know the exact name, but it should say sth about status).

I'm sorry that you don't believe me. Hopefully one day you will realise that I've never lied to you in any way.

There you go. This is why I had never experienced the bug because the first thing I do after hard reset is to didable that feature. Never wanted the extra screen.
So, anyone still saying that he did'nt believe me when I said I never had that problem?

Oh thank you all!! This problem was bugging me a lot, now it's working great! I can see the notifications directly on my screen, as I expected! It was annoying to make 3 clicks to get the messages.

You dont even have to. I use Duttys rom and there is still that annoying bug! Sometimes the icon looks like the message.. sometimes like a baloon tip. Cant figure it out.

The balloon is when you have more than one notification I believe, it uses the balloon as it cannot fit both icons on the top bar, ie email recieved, missed call etc.

darthbane2k, search the forum for SSMaPa and you'll have it working in no time

Even though I dont own an HD2 (yet).. try going in settings tab then down the bottom choose "menu/all settings", then choose personal, then phone and sellect keypad "off".. take care

Thank you, that worked (can't believe I missed it).

no worries... Its easy to get lost some times in wm, even more so when this is masked by htc sense ui

Great, thanks for the tip! I thought I had been through all sub-menus but I somehow missed the "Personal" one

I know there are some things that I just missed that were staring me right in the face ...

Anyone know how to disable this through the registry? I'm trying to sort this out when XDA_UC runs.
I flash A LOT and it's a pain to do this every single time.

How to change the vibrate?

I´ve searched in every forum but I cant find out how to change the vibrate?
Now when I get a calls i vibrates for like 10 sec, is there anyway to change it to shorter vibrate?

I am also looking for an answer on this question.
Anyone ?

I tried a cooked rom and it has a alternative vibrate pulse and ringer, but not both...
I think there should be a way to change the vibrate type...
Anyone has an idea??

umm not that difficult ...
from the home screen slide all the way over to settings,
Sound and Display and scroll down and tap Ring type
settings > Sound & Display >Ring type

Really, in a stock ROM That's what I'm running...
Is there no personalize option on your settings tab, or no vibration option in the personalize screen...?

Ok this one is gonna drive me batty until I figure it out
(Pardon the questions, just want to be sure)...Are we talking about the same thing, the "Settings" tab in Sense, not the "all settings" screen (the WM settings group that looks like the start menu)..?
And, when you're on the settings tab, are you sure you're scrolled all the way to the top of that list?
How in the world does my stock ROM have it there, and yours doesn't??

MINE DOES

I am running the Stock ROM as well and it is exactly as you stated sirphunkee! These guys must be a little confused. That is the first thing I stopped. It saved a lot on battery life.
HERE IT IS AGAIN. START/SETTINGS/PERSONALIZE/VIBRATION!

If I knew how to track registry changes in real-time, I'd just change the setting and see what change gets made as a result. But, I don't

Hit the keyboard so swype comes up.... Hit the "SYM" Key, then hit the shift key/the arrow pointing up/then hit OPT then you will see it listed and uncheck! BINGO!
Thanks

Sir Phunk have you seen anything on the boards about disabling or turning off vibration during call waiting? I'm running Core Cell V3 ROM and when you are in a call and get another the handset vibrates which 1.) Isn't pleasant to your ear, 2.) Whoever you are talking to can hear it really loud. Figured you might now, thanks ahead of time...
Nevermind, found it on the boards

I have another question related to vibration on the HD2. This has been asked before, in another thread, but has anybody found a solution to the stuck vibration issue? I usually get it from time to time through e-mail notification vibration. It will vibrate in pulses 3 times. On the third time it will hang until I press a hard button. This is very annoying, and I have disabled the notification vibrate for now.

Honestly, no, I don't know off the top of my head where that setting is, I might have guessed in the notifications settings? I'm curious to hear what you found out...

Click and Menu Transition Sounds

If this has been asked b4, then I'd like to apologize as i could not find it. In the HTC HD2 Promo video there are menu click and transition sounds while navigation the phone. By default i have noticed that is disabled. How would i go about enabling those sounds?

Never saw the video, but I've seen the sounds in the phone and didn't find any place they were actually applied...

if you go to settings/allsetings/sounds and notifications under sounds you will see screen taps and hardware buttons,their both unchecked and if you check them both the physical buttons as well as screen tap will make a click sound. hope this is what you guys are talking about
