[Q] weird notification bar icon behaviour - HD2 General

In my HD2 when I try to fix my Home Layout/Main Home/Notification Bar, the SMS icon indicates message reception; but when I tap on it, it does not bring up the relevant message but opens the item "Word Mobile" ??
Any advice ???

I don't know what the heck word mobile is, but I know that you can go to Settings > Applications > Manage Apps> All > "Word Mobile" > Scroll down and "Clear Defaults" .. Next time when that icon appears and you hit it, choose messaging .

Thanks; it worked.
However I could not find Manage Apps, through your way but through the utility "CHT Editor"
In any case problem solved. Thanks again.

lol this thread is funny...
the OP was talking about WM6.5 and the only person to answer assumed the question was about Android

Strange question about open touch 5.3 biggy

Okay, so I have a weird issue, and I've been searching and searching all day here at work, and can't find any info on it. When I flashed to Open Touch 5.3 biggy, everything worked great. ....but, after a soft reset, I noticed something changed. When I first loaded the os, I could go to Start, and then select programs and it would tile out to the right. Now, after the reset, when I select start, and programs, it goes to the big icons page, but doesn't tile out to the right. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it right, but you could see how it's hard to even look up info on how to change it back so menu's will tile over. Any help would be appreciated.
The Program that Allows for the menu style Start menu is Called Quick Menu Look for it in your windows folder. when click on it there it open. then look for the "quick menu" item and click option. check your settings there and make sure it is set up to start on system start.
Hope that helps

Man, this is driving me insane. Quick menu is in the startup folder, and when I run the program, and look at the options, it is checked to start when system starts....but every time it goes back to the normal icon page. Even after a restart, it does the same thing. What could I be doing wrong??? Ahhhhh!
I don't know if this makes a difference, but I do have HTC Home Customizer installed.
Did you noticed if "replace system's start-menu" was checked or not... might want to also check it see if "register win key of device" is checked also...
if that doesn't work might want to try and reinstall the program again.

Yeah, I tried all those, and made sure everything was selected. I read somewhere about some weird issues with batterystatus and quickmenu. I think if you have the processor speed selected to show, somehow this messed with quickmenu. I ended up flashing back to a different rom and it works fine. It was just strange though.

Appointment reminder bubble not showing after softreset

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?

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.
Cheers

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.

Changing default launcher buttons

Lets say I wanna change the icon shortcut link to Handcent instead of the default Messanger, theres gotta be a way to change it. Hopefully without rooting.
No way to change them. This feature and app menu options where removed from the epic.

I'd call that a workaround rather than a solution: I'm hoping for a solution via root or some other hack. Maybe it'll be as simple as editing a text file?
Quoted from the thread you said didn't have the solution. This might work for the other buttons as well, if you clear the defaults in said applications. That is done under the Settings > Applications, find the app and hit the "Clear Defaults" button.
Just download Handcent. When you hit the messaging icon at the bottom it will ask you if you want to use the stock app or Handcent (then you can check - remember this choice). Now whenever you hit the SMS icon (it will still appear to be the same...). It will open Handcent.

I'd call that a solution if it also changes the launcher icons to whatever application you're setting as the default. Does it work that way?

The 'Default Messenger' is not listed under Manage Applications, there is one for Handcent but that only makes it the default if you go through your contacts and select the 'text' option.
Otherwise it doesn't change the default launcher icon to open handcent and it doesn't change the logo.
Thats the one thing that is crappy with sprint is how they default their stuff and hard lock you in on it, same with the market place. They must have 3 different versions of the 'Sprint Marketplace' that has the same stuff as regular market place.
They also changed the Downloads section you click in Market to the name of 'Sprint', its like "wtf are they thinking" and it just lists a couple of average free apps under it that are already available.
This is stuff that I hope can be changed without rooting in the future, but it looks like the roms might be the saviour of this phone. SCHEIZA!!!!
It's "sprint's recommended" downloads. Yes, it's annoying, but it's better than locking you out of a ton of apps like other companies.

Any help if you go to: Settings -->General --> Applications --> Choose an app --> uncheck "Show Notifications"
ps. Not exactly sure did I give correct names to menu, as my phone language is not english.
pss. You should get there also if you drop notification bar down and long press the notification --> It give something like App Info --> then uncheck "Show Notifications"

For some reason this does not persist after a reboot. Is this by design, or is it a bug? The toggle is switched off after a reboot, but the notifications are there anyways.
Root> go to es file explorer> delete or rename knox> reboot.
This is how I made it work on note 2.

It acts same way in my phone, so it looks like a bug, but it doesn't matter for me as I don't boot my phone so often it could get annoying..
If I need to re-check them once or twise a week, no big deal
Anyway I hope Samsung will fix it
Yep, it reverts after a reset.
An apology for bumping a thread older than my nephew, but has anyone found a non root method for 7.0 n. ??

[Q] Icons missing from Galaxy S5!

I'm frustrated!
I want to edit the order of my "Quick Settings" in the Notification bar, but there is no icon (the pencil icon on the right side up) where it should be!
Also, when I press the "Options" button (the three squares) in the Settings page, most option are missing!
The only one that appears is 'List view' (to a total of 2 views - 'Grid view' and 'List view'), whereas the third view, the 'Edit quick settings' and the 'Help' options are missing!
I've got pictures to prove my point and help you see my problem but, unfortuately I can't post them here.
What is wrong? Is it because of the edition of the phone?

Depending on the device model and also the firmware version, there are some variation of the Settings menu. So I cannot realize what is your Settings menu structure.
You can open the S Finder and enter 'notification panel' to search.

Same thing happens. I sadly think it is because of the firmware, as you say, and there is nothing I can do about it.
Thanks for your reply, though!

What does that mean? Did you find this menu using S Finder?
If you cannot find this settings, here is another way:
Install Shortcut Master app, open Menu > Search > enter 'notificationpanelsetting' to search. Finally tap on the search result to open this settings.

Yes and, again, the notification panel had no pencil on the uppermost right corner. :/

I had high hopes for this (on my search on the Net, I found no solution like this) but, alas, the search came back with 0 results. Searched both 'notificationpanelsetting' and 'notificationpanelsettings', and 0 results for 'notificationpanel' as well!
edit:
Oooh! That's why I thought I recognised the name of the app creator - it was you! Nice job, btw!
Sorry, I have searched on my Note 3, not S5.
However the function may be missing because of different firmwares.
You can bypass this problem by flashing another firmware.
