I recently updated the firmware on my X1i and entered all my reminders again. The problem is that even though the correct check boxes are checked there is still the problem that the sound wont play and the bubble doesn't appear to notify me.
Any ideas?
fix reminders
i had this issue, and i dont remember where i found this solution, but im pretty sure its a common one. I dont know why this works, but it does
start/settings/system/clocks and alarms
switch your time to "visiting, hit ok and exit the clocks and alarms settings.
then open it again, switch back to "home" time, and viola!
I dont know why this works, but it does, and it usually sticks for quite a while, though i do occasionally have to do it again which is still unacceptable in my book, but I have yet to find a better solution than this.
Thankyou
This has fixed my problem, thanks loads.

Reminders no longer working, sound or pop up notification
Many thanks, confirm this fix of changing between clock 'Home' and 'Visiting' locations (along with saying yes to coresponding change of calendar times each time) fixed this issue for me to.
For reference I was using stock Sony R3A rom and believe this happened after I silenced an alarm set via the SPB Mobile Shell panel downloaded off Sony's own site. (Old WM, New X1 user so been holding off my re-flashing itch ;-)
Hi,
I've just updated to the new ROM and have found a few issues. One I think I've already seen on here where when you tap on an email it does not respond but instead you have to go to the inbox manually.
The other problem is with Skyfire 1.5. Since the update I'm having issues with certain sites such as BBC iPlayer and TVCatchup.com both telling me that I'm not in the UK.
These sites worked perfectly before the update.
Any ideas?
lock
Sometimes lock does not work - device wake up without lock.
Have to go to winmo settings and lock manually.
Yes me too!
Email doesn't open when tapped - inbox is only way
Also noticed that Volume up/down control hasn't been sorted - doesn't work
Screen lock sometimes activates, most of the time it is off now
SMS seems to be okay now
Weather Screen doesn't move as fluid as before
Still some work to do HTC
Yes I've just noticed my lock screen has stopped working and also when I go to reply to an SMS it takes 3 to 4 taps to get the screen to reply. It used to reply on the first tap!
Wish I had not done this update!

When I had the hero I had a problem with calendar reminders, can anyone confirm whether this is the case with the legend as well? Here's my original post:
When the screen is locked, and a calendar remidner pops up, is the an option other than dismiss or snooze? For some reminders, I don't want to keep snoozing, and I don't want to dismiss cause it'll disappear. On other android phones I would unlock the screen, check the reminder and then leave it or press home and it would stay in the notification pane until dismissed. But with the hero to even access it it seems I need to dismiss it. Any way around that?
cant you just snooze it and then check it ?
No, because i don't want it to keep bothering me, which is what happens when you snooze.
Basically when it beeps, and I see it on screen, I just want to silence it without snoozing (cause it'll keep coming back) and without dismissing (cause then it's gone).
On android phones without htc sense it works, you just hit the home button, which keeps the event in the notification bar until you go select it and dismiss it.
I tried to switch off the screen and it helped to me. The reminder was available in the notification bar and no other bothering occured.
good point, the hero didn't have a screen button if I recall correctly, thanks I'll give it a try when I FINALLY get my phone
Problems like this...

The power button on the far right of the phone does it.
Hi
This thread is about the new 1.72 OTA update for anyone who hasn't rooted, s-off'd etc.. Its for discussing changes, improvements, new bugs and such like. As there is no official change list, note it down and we'll get there.
If you own, or have questions about the G2, this is not applicable, the software is different. This is for the Stock Desire Z as shipped. Thanks!!
Downloaded over WLAN and it installed in about 10 mins and several reboots. If you can, try hard reset as its been reported this helps with the SMS notification bug.
My observations (UK SIM free):
New Android build (2.2.1)
New Kernel (2.6.32.21-g540976a Dec 1st)
New Radio (12.28e.60.140fU_26.04.02.17_M2)
Fixes:
Battery life better (mixed reports, but probably slightly better)
Rear speaker louder (again, needs to be tested in the wild)
Wireless LAN seems a lot quicker
Camera application improved.. (Stuttering improved when recording 720p Thanks, monomer888 & tbalden)
Snappier / Smoother menu transitions
More characters in hardware SYM list (like < and > )
Annoying Text message bug seems better but not solved (type screen jumps down as msg's load)
The delivery receipt now shows the contact name instead of the phone number. (Thanks missparker76)
Adding linked (Phone + Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) contacts to groups (e.g. Favorites) now works - they appear in the list of contacts when trying to add them. (Thanks Darthmelk)
BUGS:
SMS notifications.. Occasionally doesn't notify, sometimes cant dismiss until you go to the notification screen (Thanks Algobardo) HTC are aware..
Its lost my notification settings, sounds, volumes but that easy to put back. Kept themes, backgrounds, widgets and most other settings.
[RESOLVED] HTCSense.com not connecting to phone. Messages and Contacts still sync but unable to get location, lock or ring phone.
Slightly increased lag when rotating sense (Thanks knoeki )
Gallery showing unviewable files as a broken icon, sometimes not updating (Thanks moolash)
Changes:
New Dock menu item in settings?? (I thought it was new too Darthmelk)
LinkedIn and Picasa updates are either included, or working properly now. (Thanks Darthmelk)
Discuss!!

HTC said something about camera improvements, notice anything there ?
Erm, there seems to be more settings to play with. Maybe a bit quicker to focus and flash timing improved..
And it fixed my menu button

What was wrong with your Menu button ?

It wouldn't work... The phone would vibrate when I pressed it but nothing would appear, although the one on the keyboard would open the menu
Got me scared at first... thought it was a faulty phone
I think there's a new "Dock" option in Settings, to start the Car Panel automatically when the phone is mounted in a holder. Was it there before? Probably there are lots of very small bug-fixes we don't notice.
Battery seems as bad as always for now (using push and 2hr syncs), the hardware keyboard still doesn't have the romanian symbol "ă" when long-pressing "a". Btw, is there a way to install other languages for the hardware keyboard? I only get English.
after the ota mine has a quite annoying problem.
When i read a sms message the notification on top doesn't disapper unless i access the messaging application through the notification itself.
Anyone with the same problem ?
Suggested solutions ?

Confirmed.. Thats annoying. [EDIT] SOMETIMES!!!! Its now working.
It did it for me initially when I got the phone with stock 1.34 but never did it again.. Maybe its while it refreshes / builds the back end database.
Just now I sent about 4 messages (from external devices) where it would not dismiss or in one case not even notify!! But i've sent about 10 now that work flawlessly every time.
Maybe worth clearing all the messages out after upgrading. Its clear they've been working on the SMS app as I don't get the jumping text box any more

I think you need to change your locale to ro_RO (Romanian (Romania).

Cant say I've every had that one! perhaps a bad flash from factory or a hangover from rooting??
Thanks

Ive had that annoying notification bug (Hi, 1 week into desire z ownership btw), and I have definitely had messages without notification too. Does seem to be a bit random tho. Will see how it goes. Otherwise, it's a pretty good phone. Nice to see a section with ppl who don't root the lives outta their phones, i'm trying really hard not to for a while if i can, as you just end up changing things and re-setting everything up on a weekly basis else, and i've had enough of all that.

Nope, that will only change all the text into Romanian, but it will not add a Romanian hardware keyboard option (so no "ă" character when long-pressing "a").

At last - I'm not going mad - mine does this too after the OTA update - it's really really annoying. It's actually worse than described, because if you clear the notification by dragging the notification bar, any future SMS messages will *not* actually be alerted - no sound, no notification icon, no notification button number.
We need a fix...
I don't have this problem. If I get a new SMS, I can slide to the SMS widget and the notification clears instantly (but the SMS is still unread until I get to the SMS app, of course). If I clear the notification after dragging down the notification screen, I will get a new notification when a new SMS arrives.
"When i read a sms message the notification on top doesn't disapper" - where do you read the SMS if not inside the SMS app?
As i've previously posted, I haven't had the no notification or clear problem since.. I've been sending and receiving messages so it seems to clear itself. I use the messaging app from a shortcut.
See if it just clears by itself..
Yeah, ok. If it persists, I may use SMS Backup and clear out the database and start afresh. It is behaving at the moment...
Anyone notice the new teardrop caret/cursor when moving the cursor in a text input box?
Also, camera is still pants compared with my old Desire and the update doesn't seem to have done anything to improve quality.

I got this for Xmas, I openen the box and before playing around with 1.34 that came with it I installed the OTA 1.72.
I am amazed, have no bugs to complain about. I do not see a reason to get root or so. Sense is fine, I love it.
I came from WM, pretty many tweak skills, but i don't need tweaking any yet.

I have definitly noticed issue with sms notification too ... Undoubtly there is something wrong and it triggers just sometimes.
Another thing which may have changed is in menu where you choose your ring tone - I think there wasnt option to choose any mp3 from your phone. I had have to google some instructions how to do it which involved copying mp3 to the specific folder.
Yeah, updated fine all seems good, only thing to complain about is the SMS problems, doesnt even let me know i got a text most the time.
Tried factory reset erasing everything ect nothing helps
Just have to wait for a fix then i guess...
Need help as my phone became barely usable aftaer OTA update.
The top end of the screen (about 1 cm top to down) is not responding to touch. I cant tap any input in common use cases like using google search box widget, answering a call while in app using the new call feature, tap Send when composing an email and so on...
The only case this part of screen is active is when pulling down the notification bar, tapping objects like the clock (time display) Setting icon etc'. So I beleave this is not a hardware issue.
I did wipe the catch with no help and reset to factory setting with no help as well.
Did anyone experiance the same issue?
Any idea how can I overcome this except down grading back to 4.4.2?
Any easy trick for some one who is not a developer or deeply technical?
THANKS!
