After rotate: HD switches back to manila

This drives my crazy: After rotating the screen with gyrator, gsen or manual-button, the HD switches back to manila or any other last used system window.
(There are some posts inside some big threads wich nobody replied, so I start a new one for this bug only...)
This is VERY annoying if you just want to turn the screen for reading or writing a mail...

i dont know if this is the right method to do it.. but
try adding all types of exceptions to the list in gsen window/class etc of your messaging window!
i came across the same problem and this seem to fix it!
try it and let me know if it worked!

what have you added? manila is already added...

sometimes the bug disappears...I added the exeptions, but have to wait some times to see if the effect lasts...But thanks!

im not talking about manilla.. open the window you wish you dont want to rotate.. then hit the home button on your phone. then go to gsen configuration and add all the windows/classes/process of that application!
that should stop the minimizing of that window when rotated.. hopefully!
if someone has a better solution let us know!

? in dont understand. I do want to rotate for example the mail window, so i added all the others to "dont rotate". correct?

Did you test MobileMagic?

yes, same effect + too buggy

It's top bar's icons related problem.
If you uninstall them you should not have that issue.

As described in another thread. This may be caused by colorful icons/battery icon in top bar.

ahhh ok I'll try. Thanks.
Do you know an other way to display some battery percentage?

If you look around, there is atleast two color top bars that do not have this problem. The problem originated from one of the first color top bars (which everyone liked and used), but now just look around and try them till u find one that u like and doesn't have the bug. (i'd give u mine but i can't find the cab for either one) good luck

Please let us know if you find one, and where to get it.
Thanks.

i now use aebuttons plus to show me battery-percentage at a btn-click.

SMS Scrollbar Tweak for WM6

When I had a Trinity I remember downloading a tweak to get rid of the redundant vertical scrollbar in WM6. I've spent hours trying to find it again and I came across it in AX3L's Tweak&Utilities which had a whole lot of other tweaks that I didn't want to apply to my phone.
Now I'm no developer (as you can tell from my posts!), but I've had a dabble with AX3L's cab and stripped everything else out of it so it only has the sms scrollbar tweak. It works fine on my Touch HD and can be uninstalled too; I hope this is of use to the community.
EDIT: note the vertical scrollbar is not needed and is therefore hidden. It will appear on longer messages when it is required.

Hi,looks interesting,can u post a before after screenshot,thx for sharing

I'm not sure which scroll bar you're talking about. Any chance we could get a screenshot?

Yes please!
It doesn't appear to do anything on my Touch... Or I don't know what I'm looking for

does this remove scroll bars period? As in set the scroll bar width to zero? (for system)
Or does this only apply to the messaging section.

Messaging section only. And no, it doesn't set the scrollbar width to zero, it simply hides it unless there is a need for it (like in file explorer). When it appears it is normal width.

awsome, thanks

hi Cool app but was wondering how did you get your task bar like that .
Please pm me and let me know

Great app !
But it seems that you have excracted the "no sms sent notification" at the same time :/
Could you remove this feature please ?

Thnx a lot mate, it works like a charm...

My i780 hanged after I typed many texts. The scrollbar just appeared afterwhich my phone went unresponsive.

Working just fine on the Palm Treo Pro (with RealVGA).
Thanks for this! Had a modified file a time ago when I tried SmileySMS that fixed the same issue. Forget it might be useful on the TP as well
Keep up the good work!

is it possible to do the same for windows media player?

Not working on my Touch Pro with Mighty ROM 4. Any suggestions?

You need to know that it only works on a new SMS. After somebody replied you will get the Threaded SMS layout. Now the scrollbar appears because the Threaded SMS layout has not been modified.

thank you very much

HTC HD2 how to disable SMS wake up problem?

Does anybody know how to disable HD2 from waking up upon receiving an sms? I would really love to do this because I carry my HD2 in my pocket. Often I didn't hear that there was an incoming sms and the screen refused to turn off after that due to the sensitive capacitive display which kept on rubbing with my pants.
Thank you in advance

How did you do it on your previous device?
Settings - Personal - Sounds & Notifications - Notifications - New Text Message - uncheck Display on screen.

With my previous device like HTC Touch HD, it didn't auto wake up upon receiving sms.
Secondly, the screen was not capacitive therefore not as sensitive as HD2 and never experienced a problem.
I also have tried your procedure "
Settings - Personal - Sounds & Notifications - Notifications - New Text Message - uncheck Display on screen."
and the problem still persisted.
My HD2 still kept on turning on itself upon receiving an sms.

Im with you on this one, mine always wake up too. Even when using BSB Tweaks

I have the same problem. I can't turn it off.
Danish Rom 1.48

I have this problem as well. Does anyone have a solution?

(bump)
There must surely be a solution to this...?

I have the same problem with my TD2,I already set the following item in registry
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"DisableSMSWakeUpEvent"=dword:00000001
but it don't work.

Install BsB Tweaks (search the forum for it) and there is an option to turn off the wakeup.

Odd... did you reset your device afterwards? Are you sure "SMS Wake Up" is set to off? My mate left it on "on" thinking it was a double negative sort of thing...

Yes, and yes. I even directly checked the registry to make sure it's inserting the right value, and it is; the phone is simply ignoring the registry value.

Got exactly the same problem here too (Stock 1.48.405.2)

I think HTC's latest revision of the SMS hotfix, posted yesterday, may have fixed this problem. Needs a bit more testing to be sure....

I've been running Tom Codon's 1.1 ROM for a couple of days with the BsB tweak applied and my screen stays off (still get notification sound).
I only applied the SMS hotfix today, so it wasn't that. Tom's ROM is 2.02 based, this might have something to do with it working ok.

Yes, after installing the SMS Hotfix, I notice that my phone did not wake up upon receiving a sms anymore which is not happening before the SMS Hotfix.

The hotfix says it is for ROM versions 1.66 and earlier, so later ROM versions presumably already contain it.

My device also doesn't wake on SMS after the Hotfix

i was looking the reverse solucion, because, mine was like yours, but after i installed the hotfix sms "2" ,of 14-01-10 my hd2 dosent wake up no more after reciving a new sms, and i am thinking after i read this to leave it like this..... hope to help with something

Viewing messages from Notifications bar...

On my old Touch Pro when you recieved a message whatever program you were using at the time if you clicked at the black bar at the top for notifications then on the view message icon it would display in a little bubble at the bottom of the screen overlayed ontop of the program you were using so you could quickly view the message and then minimize it an contiue what you were doing or click reply and it would enter you into text messaging. Is there anyway to enable this feature for HD2. Because I miss it!
Cheers

have you recently flashed a rom? if so what back up program did you use to backup/restore PIM data? When i flashed my first rom i was using SPB Backup and when restoring PIM data, it would loose the bubble you talk about, I have since used PIM Backup and not had an issue.

Its always been like it, with first ROM, i upgraded to 1.66 and now im on 1.72, by the way big mistake! My phone is now slow as hell and doesnt send texts or recieve whether updates!
I assumed that it was the new stly of notifications menu and hoped there was a way to enable the other style?

About to flash myself. I'll come back here if I get any problems.

Ok let me know ive found its not so bad now 1.72 I am currently on a personal record(this is not a joke this is the longest ive ever been able to run the phone without reseting) of 17hours 23minutes without needing to soft reset however i have had to do funny things to make that possible see here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=666458
Can anybody tell me if in any ROM version when u get a text in and click in the notifications menu it opens the message in a bubble at the bottom rather than taking u too messages tab??
Thanks

Anyone know how to display message in the pop up bubble from the notifications bar rather than sending you straight to the messages tab (useful for reading the message while in another program)???
Many thanks

Still after a way to get this working really want to be able to quickly read a message while in another prograam like i used to on my toch pro. Help would be appreciated thanks

Very easy: Start, Settings, Menu, More, Sounds and Notifications, Choose New Message from DropdownMenu, Check "Show Message", Done
Greets

If i am in the right place it is greyed out and doesnt let me check the box although for me to get there it is:
start/settings/menu/all settings/sounds & notifications/ then click notifications tab then select New Message from DropdownMenu but the "Display message on screen" is greyed out?
Thanks for the reply

Hmm strange maybe it is ROM-dependant...? Or there are other settings need to be made in order to use this option...? Which ROM are u using? Have you got BSBTweaks installed?

No i dont have bsb tweaks installed i dont like the way you cant reset to defaults, i do have hd2 tweaks installed though.Will bsb tweaks make it work? im running latest voda Rom 1.72.

Actually i dont think that this has to do with BSB. I relly dont have an idea as the checkbox "Show Message" is a standard function of every windows mobile version Anybody else got an idea why the box is greyed out...?

I went searching through the registry and found keys which were in the NOTIFICATIONMGR bit which had a path linking to Messaging_Client which i guess is what directs it to the manilla messaging bit when you get a message. I tried deleting the path and deleting the values in the CMD bit but it still does the same. I restored the key after just incase it affected something else but presumably there is a key somewhere which controls whether or not you can click that check box but i have no idea where i would find it? Anyone know.

Screen wont light up when sms received while on standby...

Ive used SSPL a few times to change the ROM of my Mini and now when I get a text message my screen doesnt light up while in standby. Is there any fix for this apart from hard reset or reusing SSPL to see if an error occurred?!
It used to light up before with previous installs.
Thanks for any reply.

Use Advanced Configuration Tools.

doesnt seem to work on my mini, installed it onto the storage card - cant see option to change notifications.....
thanks anyway

You must install it in internal memory.
The app contains tweaks.

I used the exe from the developers site - got the cab now.... shall see how it goes; thanks!
my mistake

Okay I couldnt find any option within Advanced Configuration for the screen lighting up when a text is received but there was a lot of options - so if someone can clarify its there I stand corrected!
I also installed BsB Tweaks and there is a SMS wake up option , I activated this and it does what I want!
Thanks again to fighter7139 for pushing me in the right direction - appreciated bro.

By the way, in ACT the option is:
Messaging--->Wake up on new sms.

Yeah I saw that on a site but it appears not listed on the v3.3 I installed!

ALSO just noticed that all I needed to do was...
Window Icon - Settings - Menu - Sounds & Notifications - Notifications - Message : New Message AND
tick Flash Light
-
Man, I feel dumb for not noticing that!

Fourth option in "Messaging":
