Calendar/Tasks/Alarm popups disappeared?? - HD2 General

Hello
I have looked around the whole of the HD2 forums for a solution and I have come empty handed. I have found forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537878 Remove HTC Notificaion Manager and forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632170&highlight=lost+popup+notifications How to disable HTC notifications screen but there doesn't seem to be anything in there to help, or that at least explains why this has happened. My problem is that I have lost the Popups to dismiss/snooze calendar events as well as the Alarm Clock.
I do not have a cooked Rom, I do however have Cookie's Hometab, BsB Tweaks, gfreek's Brians's icons and several other little mods. Everything was working fine until I am not sure when
I noticed a few days ago that the popups no longer appear with a Locked phone. When the Alarm goes off in the morning, I have to unlock the phone, tap the taskbar, get into the HTC Notifications screen, click on the Notification and finally Dismiss... It's a little bit of a longwinded way of doing things when the popups where so handy. No need to unlock anything either for Calendar tasks/reminders nor for the alarm clock.
Needless to say when I wake up in the morning the last thing I want to do is fiddle with tapping things... I want to wake up without swearing
One way around the Alarm Clock is G-Alarm, but I would rather not have to resort to that. There still remains the problem of my many tasks and reminders!!!
Are any of the Tweaks/Mods/Hacks responsible for the popups' disappearance?
I would LOVE for my popups to come back. As a last resort I will Hard Reset the phone, but as a lot of you will agree, it's a bit of an inconvenience since we all spend so much time making the phone our own.
BTW: I uninstalled BsB Tweaks (one of the last things I installed) to check if the popups would come back, no joy.
This is the phone info:
OS version
5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Manila version
2.5.19211619.0
ROM Version
1.66.405.2 (76641) WWE
ROM date
01/11/10
Radio version
2.06.51.07
Protocol version
15.30.50.07U
if any more information is needed please let me know.
Thank you.

go to settings/sound and notification/notification/ reminder and tick the option to "display message on screen"

Ha!
it must have been the coffee...
I think I found it!
will test and see if it makes a difference.
Thank you so much.
------
final edit to say IT WORKS!!! Thank you so much! you have given me peace of mind!!!

U are welcome.

Same problem on my touch pro2
I found it on settings/menu/all settings/sound&messages/messages(tab)...A bit anoying that HTC hides those settings. Even the HTC support could not help me with this problem...
I found it after reading this post.
Thanks!

No screen tap sounds with Ausdim v3 (full) ROM

Not sure if this should be in the Trinity WM6 forum or not, but here goes:
I'm using the Ausdim v3 (full) WM6.1 ROM on my Trinity.
It's great and does everything I need, but I have one small problem:
I like to have screen tap sounds switched on, but even when I check 'Screen taps' in Settings->Sounds + Notifications (Soft or Loud), I get no sound.
If I check 'Hardware buttons', I get sound for the buttons no problem.
So, does anyone else have this problem with this ROM (or any other ROM) and does anyone know a fix (registry perhaps)?
screen tap sounds not working after installing slither's cube with touchflo
First and foremost, all you guys at xda-developers and ppcgeeks freaking rock!!! Not to mention, there are so many other people also helping out. You really do contribute so much to the world in your own way and make us all look cool with our suped up phones.
After installing Slither's cube 1.62 and TouchFlo 1.41, I am unable to get screen tap sounds working. The Hardware buttons sounds work fine as configured in the Settings>Sounds and Notifications section. But Screen Tap, eventhough set to Loud, does not work.
Your help in this matter would be most appreciated as quite a few people have reported this problem. I am using a Verizon XV6800 with the original rom. I also have iFonz 0.99.0 installed. But the issue is noted even when iFonz is not running. FTouchFlo seems to be auto running on start.
Thanks.....

Confirmation of calendar events/reminders

Hi folks,
searched around this forum (and others) unsuccessfully for hours now, maybe someone knows what i'm looking for.
I don't like the procedure of confirming appointments or tasks provided by WM6 in combination with tf3d.
If you can't confirm the alarm instantly it disappears after a while and the softkey is overruled by tf3d.
As you all know you have to press the top bar and after that the bell in the upcoming screen to bring the reminder in front and if you want to be reminded later you need two more fingertips.
What i am looking for (or what i'm dreaming about) is a fingerfriendly dialog (maybe in a transparent curtain style corresponding to tf3d or so) popping up and staying in front of the screen until it is confirmed, containig the information about the task or appointment, maybe the current time, buttons for confirmation or repeating after a while.
By the way a big thank you to all the developers and contributors, this forum is No.1 and helped me a lot for years now.
Thanks in advance
Me too!
Yeah, I'll second that! Bloody annoying when the pop-up disappears before you get a chance to interact with it. If anyone has a solution to this, I'm all ears
Pop up stays put when using S2U2

Thanks my friend... been using another screen lock app, S2U2 is alot better I have to say - and FREE!
Hmmm....., S2U2,
i followed the developing from on the beginning and used it on my old prophet (at this point a lot of thanks to A_C for this excellent piece of work) but found that the handling of appointments when popping up wasn't as good as the rest of the app.
The appointment comes up (as the native windows dialog, which is, let me say, not very beautyful, also the top bar comes up, cutting of the S2U2 clock) and stays on the S2U2 screen but if you don't recognize it and the device goes into stand-by and you switch it on later the pop-up is gone (at least on the prophet), which is no problem on a classic today screen, but on a tf3d screen the softeys are overruled and you have the "problem" described in my first post.
And as a locking solution you have some other opportunities today, SlideToAnswer and TouchlockPro are fitting my needs better on the diamond.
Also in times of eyecandy i think this dialog is a missing link in the chain of beautyness.
So i'm still in hope that someone has a recommendation, but maybe it's not a problem for the most.

SMS notification sound gone after ROM 2.53 update

After updating my ROM to WWE 2.53 from HTC official web site there is no sound notificiation of SMS when the screen is off. Only LED blinking. I have tried to install the same hotfix released by HTC in the past but it is not accepted by this version of the ROM.
Any solution will be highly appreciated.
If you go to Settings/All Settings/Sounds & Notifications you get back to the "old" style setting screen, and can set sounds for any events.
Hope this helps.
No way
Unfortunately everything seems OK under those settings. Boxes are checked there, but still no sound when the screen is off.
Hadn't spotted your reference to the screen being off, sorry.
What about using TD2 Tools to check whether the SMS Wakeup Event is disabled, and if so resetting it?
hardreset
After not finding a solution I have hardreset the phone and everything is corrected. That means it was not from ROM update but a bug occured during my modifications to the registry I guess.
neverthless thanks a lot for your effort and interest to the subject werdna72.

set time zone popup

I am stuck on a problem. When I flash a ROM that I have cooked I am getting a popup right when the ROM loads the first time asking me to select the timezone. It would not be that big of an issue but it causes havoc on occasion with the startup customization and/or UC. It can cause these to hang. A soft reset usually clears the issue but it is an annoyance. The ROM I am working on is a 21898 build with Manila 2.1 built for the Tilt2.
Anyone know what package is causing this popup and/or how to disable it?
Thanks

I think its oobe.
so... whats so oobe?
In one of NRG's threads, there's a link to a thread on welcome.exe. If this is occuring because of the welcome screen, there are reg entries in welcome that you can change to keep the time zone page from appearing (as well as other stuff, like email setup). If it's an htc bug, I can't help you.
I used to have customization freeze up on me all the time near the end. Another 'customization will start in 3 seconds' window would pop up, and it was all over at that point. I first just put my .tsk at the end of the queue, so if that got messed up, it was no big deal. But I found that removing sdautorun/UC from customization fixed everything (I don't used UC, anyway). Now, I end customization with sk tools backup popping up; I restore my pim data and then sk tools soft resets. It's pretty dang sweet, lol (not that it has anything to do with your issue).

COokies Home Tab v1.8.0 screwed my HD2

Following an update from UK o2 stock ROM 1.43 to stock ROM 1.72, CHT 1.8.0 possibly caused BIG problems with my phone. If anyone can come up with another explanation I would be more than willing not to blame CHT 1.8.0.
Prior to update I'd always had CHT & CHT Editor 1.7.1 installed and never had any probs.
Following the update, and after a HR, I decided to install CHT 1.8.0 after a particularly nice looking breitling clock caught my eye which would only work with cht1.8.0 installed.
After installation I set about setting my home screen up. After an hour or so I'd got my home screen pretty much set up how I wanted it. Was I happy? Yes, Yes & Yes!! Which is why I can't explain why I went back into the editor and decided to change the lockscreen from Windows to Manila.
I came out of chteditor back to home screen and my HS was screwed. All my nicely laid out and painstakingly selected 4x4 (plus 4 extra pages) prog icons had gone as well as my very nice breitling clock, in its place was the standard flip clock, and a blank screen, that wasn't actually operating. All it showed was 3 fat zeros, which never moved. I was left with a screen that resembled a home screen after a HR, ie. nothing on it!!!!! Sresetting several times made no difference at all!
My only option was a HR, after which my first task was to install CHT & Editor 1.7.1 back on to my phone and un-install 1.8.0. Since then I've had no probs. My question: Did I do something wrong? Has this happened before to other members? I would be intrigued to find out.
Looking forward to replies.
Same here!!!
Yes I had similar problems to you, both with CHT 1.8 and later with CHT 1.8.5.
I actually reverted back to CHT 1.7.1 as it works flawlessly.
Shame though!
I really like the speed and ability to change the text colours and the lock screen wallpaper.
Anybody who knows how to do both either please post.

I cant really explain what happened mate but i no there was some bugs in 1.8 with a white screen they have been fixed now in a new version,

Do you connect to an exchange server?
There are issues with Cookie and exchange servers enforcing encryption policies. I use the NRG ROMS and he explicitly tells you NOT to use the CHT lockscreen as it will screw the phone and to use the windows lockscreen...
SO advise would be that if your going t oupgrade to the late cookies then stick with the windows lockscreen.
Guys, can I suggest that you stop posting issues for CHT in a new thread in a different forum? Co0kieMonster will want to know about any issues, but it's not likely that he'll see them here. You should really be posting this in the CHT thread so that he's aware and can resolve any issues raised.
I know you're just discussing your own issues, but his thread really is the place to do it.

Thx for the reply.
No I don't connect to an exchange server, but now you come to mention the CHT lockscreen, that is what I did select, I thought I'd selected the manila lock but it was definitely the CHT lock. Thanks for pointing this out.
If I decide to re-install CHT 1.8.0 or the newer 1.8.5 i will bear this in mind.
Thank you, much appreciated.
