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

Hello all,
I dug into a few WinMo boards, including this one, but couldn't come close to what keeps bugging me. I think I'll give it a try, so mods please accept apologies if this is a repost or if this has been asked before.
I heavily rely on my calendar to remind me of all the stuff I need to remember. In the "sounds & notifications" options, I've set the reminders to play some wav, to vibrate the phone and to display a notification bubble.
The issue is the following: sound & vibrate work fine, but as soon as I perform a soft-reset, the notification bubbles don't show anymore, even if the "display message" option is checked in the settings. I get the little bell icon in the top bar, and from there I can click on it in the HTC action screen to open the bubble, but it doesn't pop up automatically unless I go back to the settings, uncheck the option and save, then go again in the settings, check the option and save.
I tried to clean up the notification queue with SKTools, but it didn't changed anything. I'm pretty sure this bug wasn't present when I bought the phone, about 4 months ago. Is there any tweak or reg hack that would help me circumvent this very nasty annoyance, or should I hopelessly head for an hard-reset ?
Thanks in advance for any help one can bring.
I have the same issue - be interested to hear of any fix.
Me too, also same problem on touch pro.

I get this as well, very irritating
Me too ! This is a very irritating problem, no fix found
anywhere on the Internet
Same here. Its a terrible bug that has plagued Touchflo 3D since the Diamond...
Isn't there a third party app that shows announcements to fix this TF3D issue?
It isn't a tf3d issue, I run a ROM wihtout tf3d and it still occurs. Works fine for a while and then the display bubble stops popping up.
I've tried galarm as a third party alarm solution but this must rely on the system popup to give it focus because the same thing happens.
Very irritating, affects me when my wakeup alarm goes off and I have to mess around for ages to get it to cease.
Are you using wktask ? If so, it is being hidden by it. In your preference under the first tab, check the option for hide the task list when there is no task.

No, although I have used it in the past and it is a very good task manager. Seems to be the settings under sounds & notifications for reminders which revert to unticked "display on screen". I tick it again and it is OK for a few days then it "unticks" itself. Weird. I am using Wisbar Advance Desktop 2 but I can't see that this should affect it.
Its not a wktask or wisbar issue as im not running either of those...
Same problem here.
Has someone found a solution?

I have the same problem - what's the fix???
same problem here
other problems with bubble...
Hi,
I'm having the same problem as above on my Touch Pro 2, but also, if the reminder includes a '&' it shows as a '_' in the bubble. A bit of an ASCII problem maybe?
If HTC is watching, the reminder bubble integration into TF3D has gained us problems and removed the ability to snooze the alarm... not really an improvement.
Problem I have, is that if HTC supply a fix at the ROM level (as with the GPS and SMS fixes) Vodafone won't take it up for months, if ever.

I have figured it out the Alarm & calendar notifications issue. These settings will display Alarm & calendar notifications on screen with out clicking the little bell on top of the screen all the time.
Go to Menu --> settings --> Sounds & Notifications under “Personal” tab --> select “Events” under Sounds tab then --> go to “Notifications” tab --> select “Reminders” option from drop-down list for Event field --> Select “Display message on screen” and then click OK on top of the window.
You can select other number of options from drop-down menu to display the notifications.
Hope this will solve most people’s notification issue.
Is there any way to stop the screen turning on when I receive a text, I dont always want to read it straight away and when the screen comes on in my pocket I find i press all sorts of things.
Very annoying.
start - settings - Sounds & Notifications - Notifications (tab at bottom) - select "Messaging: new text message" and unclick box for display message on screen.
Hi,
What about delivery notification ? It's not possible to change notifications about it, and it's always turn the screen on.
thats what i thought i have the box unchecked and the screen still comes on

Hmmm - I think this is a bug in the system because I have heard other people with this problem and I personally have the box checked to see the window but it does not always appear.
A soft reset should correct the behaviour BUT the problem will return.
Try at least the soft reset and you will see the correct behaviour (if only for a while !!)
how annoying is this an issue of tf3d overriding windows settings?
Also interested in dropping the screen wake up upon sms arrival and confirmation text. No need, the sound/vibration is enough.

Tried this, it still wont work.
Anyone had any luck getting rid of this issue?
Ultimately I dont want the screen to wake up unless
a: someone is calling me
or
b: i turn it on
Any ideas?
Try with HD Tweak. I enabled the option in HD Tweak, but found the same issue (I was making calls when the phone was in my pocket and I received a text message). Then, I disabled from the same HD Tweak and it didn't turned on the screen anymore.
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.
...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
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.
