Qtek 9100 - reminder doesn't notify anymore - General Topics

Hi
A couple of days ago I realized that my Qtek 9100 no longer processed my reminders. My phone don't any longer play a sound and pop up a window at the time/date a reminder is due.
I checked the settings and everything is set correctly. Then I reset the Qtek and it still didn't go back to work normally. The last step was to switch it off, remove the battery and switch it on again. That did the trick, everything went back to normal, however only for a time. Next day same situation, reminders do not process. Again switch off, etc., and again it returned to working normally and again until some time....
I don't know if and what program I might have installed, and I surely don't know what causes this malfunction nor how to get rid of it.
Anyone out there who could give me a hand on solving this problem?
cheers...

May users have notification problems (in WM5 and WM6 devices). Search forum and you'll find FAQ about NQ and reminders problem.
My experiences: since I use pmClean (free) and SKTools (commercial) everyday my notifications and reminders work without any bugs for more then 2 months. Both applications have scheduling then you don't have to run them manually.
I don't synchronize my Artemis with Outlook on PC, maybe it's useful too.
Good luck.
PS. You could try Check Notifications, but for check only (suspicious notifications are in red color), don't use it's clean feature or you could have NQ cleaned too much

Hi
Thanks for you help. I installed the pmClean and the notifications came back after cleaning. However the next day again they were blocked again. May I ask you how you configured your pmClean? Do you run it automatically? If so, one or more days per week? Do you let it execute a soft reset after cleaning?

Actually I use 2 programs now - pmClean runs one a day (auto, with no reset) and SKTools - once a day too.

Hi.... I installed pmClean and even purchased SKTools.... but every day I realize that the reminders don't work. I have the pmClean programmed to run every day at 06:00... doesn't help. The reminders seem to works however always after I did a reset. However it looks that inbetween the next day something happens and the reminders again won't work. Any idea on what I could do? Is there anymore server reset like uninstalling all programs but mobile 5 itself and re-install everything?
cheers

Try not to synchronize with PC and see it it'll help. You may also use WakeUp Tweak to make every night cleanup longer.
I know WM5 and WM6 bugs in NQ are very annoying and MS ignores our prayers for years... I always think about new Android from Google when it happens to me

Hi
guess I finally figured out what caused the problem. It's not the Qtek 9100 but the ActiveSync application. I suspected this yesterday after reading some comments. So I decided to not connect my phone to my note which always triggered the ActiveSync to load. And since my last cleanup and soft reset yesterday all reminders worked. The WM5 sync at midnight didn't do any harm. Now the question is how can I fix ActiveSync? At least I'd like to be able to install programs on my Qtek which always comes with a sync. Any idea? Or do I simply have to always run pmClean followed by a soft reset after having my Qtek being connected?

You still can install programs without Activesync partnership (your device is seen as Guest).

ActiveSync Problem

I am having a problem with ActiveSync on my phone an Orange M700 running the HTC P3600 ROM. It was working with no problems until a few weeks ago when it stopped syncing. I have tested the laptop with another PPC and ActiveSync notices it straight away.
I have installed ActiveSync 4.5 to no avail so I returned to 4.2 and still nothing. I deleted all partnerships in both the phone and the laptop and when I plugged it back in the Windows saw the device as there was a pop up bubble in the bottom right corner but ActiveSync never kicked in.
I have had a look at the ActiveSync settings in the M700 but everything looks fine to me.
I have also been having problems with my 3G connection not connecting and doing the regular syncs it normally does e.g. my personal mail every 5 mins, my yahoo mail every hour and the weather every 2 hours. The only thing that has changed in this time is that I installed Fring, I can't imagine its related but I uninstalled Fring just in case but still no luck.
Anyone got any ideas how to fix it as I have some new appointments (I'm not sure which ones) in my PDA which I want to get synced before messing around with hard resets etc.
Thanks
Did you delete any notifications of any kind, usually replog files? If YES, then you just deleted your notification to activate Active Sync on your computer. You can solve that easily by returning the file. READ this for the solution: http://www.cs.pitt.edu/~jmisurda/ppc/blog/index.php?entry=entry051203-201515

I don't think I did that but I tried the file anyway, still no joy. I think my phone is also vibrating when I plug it into the PC now, very strange.

Have you ever used Check Notifications? It is a free software to clear away JUNK notifications.
Link: http://www.scarybearsoftware.com/cn_overview.html
Sometimes, our PPC just creates duplicates of certain Notifications that can cause conflicts with some softwares. Maybe this is what is happening in your device. You can try and download Check Notifications, even though it says it is only compatible with WM 2003, I use it for my HTC Universal (WM5). Just go to Check Notifications settings and tick the 3 choices, run it and CLEAR those pesky bugs.

Right I ticked the three boxes and cleared the issues but still nothing
Normally I'd just hard reset but I am worried about losing appointments I've forgotten I have made since my last sync.

I don't know what else to suggest.
If you do decide to HARD RESET, take a look at this FREE BABKUP program for contacts and calendar events: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705&highlight=backup
I hate doing hard resets myself, that is why I have SPB Backup configured to do automatic backups everyday at 5AM.
Good Luck...

Thanks for your help.
I'm not sure how I am going to progress this. My major issue is that we use GroupWise at work with a third party app to allow the PocketPCs to sync with it. When you set it up it blanks the device before you can do anything, if I wait and import everything after this it usually can't cope with the levels of changes and kills the system on the server.
Oh joy, why wasn't someone looking at the "bigger picture" when we choose an e-mail system.....

Problem with alarms

Hello,
Please help me with my problem: I had the alarm set at 6 am in the morning and it worked well. A few days ago I set it at 7 am... just one alarm. Now, even if the alarm is set to 7 am, the alarm starts at 6 am and at 7 am. What can I do do delete the old alarm ? When the alarms starts I see 2 remainders. From where can I delete those reminders ?
Thank you for your time.
I had the same problem after the clocks went forward last weekend. i put it down to a custom rom i was using but i couldn't find a solution so ended up hard reseting my device.
I have the Original WWE ROM (English) and nothing like this came up...
Using the original ROM that came with the device. If I stay and think well this sitution is from the last hour change... Hmmm, could this be a bug in WM ? I don't want to make a hard reset...
I find that whenever I sync my WM device to my PC, I get duplicate reminders/alarms.
Use a tool like MemMaid or the freeware AlarmFixWM to clean up your notifications queue. That should do the trick; it always works for me (until I sync again).
This is a stupid, very old Windows Mobile bug that hasn't been fixed across several new versions of the OS.

thank you from the bottom of my heart. Installed AlarmFixWM and found 58 prblems. Soft reseted the PDA. I guess tommorrow morning I'll see the result. Is there some other software wich I could use for alarms ?
SPB time 2.2.2 is working great for me
I had the same stupid problem with the alarms. AlarmfixWM wouldn't install on my PC. SKTools Lite did the trick for me.

Stability issues...Cannot find a long lasting Rom!

Hi guys, I've got a little problem that I need some help with.
Whenever I download and intall any rom on my phone, I use it for a while, maybe a few weeks or sometimes it lasts a month or two (most recently, lasted only a week)....it then freezes up at some point and I have to do a soft reset...sometimes instead of doing a soft reset it does a hard reset on its own....or it even sometimes freezes up on the boot screen and I have no other options but to perform a hard reset.
I'm sick of losing all my data and programs and then having to replace them.
I've tried numerous roms varying from Romeos, Laurentius etc....but I still get the same problem. I haven't had a stable rom since Dutty, but even with his, I would get this problem sometimes.
Any Ideas what I can do, this is getting really really annoying.
My phone spces are:
HTC Kaiser, 3.56 Hardspl (recently updated a month ago), Radio 1.65.24.36.
Apps that I always install:
SBSH Pocketweather, PIM backup, tomtom 6, z2 R2PC client (remote desktop program) and PT Travel alarm.
I sync all my previous emails, notes and call logs with PIM backup, and all of my calendar appointments and contacts I sync using Activesync through my PC.
Any suggestion would be extremely helpful, I'm ready to pull my hair out here....I'm sick of getting stranded having to do a hard reset then coming home and spending two hours fixing my phone to the way I like it,
Thank you,
P
I don't use any of those programs except TomTom, and even TT is used rarely.
BUT
I do/have used pretty much all the new ROMs and have had no stability problems. Obviously one or more of the programs are disagreeing with with the newer ROMs.
Is it because of wm6.1?
Are you getting the freeze when one of the programs are running?
I had that happen to me too the other day. I'll get the details of the ROM and post in here as soon as I can.
Try the ROM in my signature - never have a lock up. Only turn it off when I fly. Used it since it was released. I use TomTom and several of the others that you say and LOTS of others that I have installed.

The SPB Pocket applications are known to cause headaches with WM 6.1 ROMs. I would suggest running without it installed and see if the problem still occurs.
You think this has anything to do with what hardspl version i'm running? Even when i was running the older hardspl with duttys it still crashed on me once or twice.
As for software, i'm not running any spb programs...the only one i can see maybe causing a problem is pocketweather(by sbsh)...but it's a pretty simple weather app...i sure hope it isn't the cause.
I might have to give that Shogun app a try and see how that goes.
Thanks for the replies so far.

Try removing the weather app. As for HardSPL, the only known issues with running an incorrect/outdated version of it are occasional device freezes that generally last from 1-5 seconds.
I recommend flashing the AT&T OEM recent WM6.1 ROM. I am using it now and have no issues thus far. I also installed all of SPB Suite and Resco Suite, iGO8 and many other programs, NO ISSUES so far.
This ROM has been released and it is posted here on this forum.

Active Sync problem

Hello!
Since I had battery problems and the active sync always active was the main cause (now I can use the Pro for two days, otherwise at dinner time it was dead already), I read a lot about it and people told to kill the notification with taskmanager called replog.exe, or something like that.
It worked well, the problem is that I still want to connect to activesync to install programs and sync with outlook and now I cant. device is not connected at all.
how can i start activesync manually or solve this issue?
please help! this is getting me nuts!

iFonz very slow / crashing

I think I've put this in the right place, but Mods please feel free to move it if I haven't.
My O2 XDA Ignito (HTC Touch Diamond in a different housing) has worked perfectly with iFonz for many months. I'm on version 1.1.2. I am very, very happy with iFonz and would not want to go back to TouchFlo which is nowhere near as good.
Yesterday, iFonz suddenly started operating extremely slowly. I thought I had crashed, but in fact it responds to commands but takes anything from 15 seconds to over a minute to do so. Until then, it has been virtually instantaneous.
The first command I issue after it's been left for some time will work as normal, but if I open (say) the PI Calendar, then close that - the nothing else will work for about 15 seconds after the keypress.
The only change I know about is that I had a problem with ActiveSynch to a new desktop installation (the familiar 0x86000107 problem) which I fixed in the usual way by deleting and reinstalling the pairing. Activesync worked fine after that.
I have S2U2 running - but that's always been there.
I noticed from the time I first installed iFonz that it would not update its header bar for several seconds after starting, but everything else worked OK.
Can anyone suggest a cause or a fix? I'm reluctant to uninstall and reinstall because I've set up 4 pages of icons and don't want to lose all that work.
I never used iFonz but i'm pretty sure the settings are kept somewhere so you can export them and not have to set everything up from the beginning. I always suggest uninstalling to check what causes the problem.
Thank you. Indeed, that is what I would have expected. I've searched the machine carefully, and found the iFonz software but no settings file.
I've PMed the author, and meanwhile I've taken iFonz off the startup list and running Touchflo instead. I don't like it anything like as much as iFonz, but it works.
Well, there's been no reply from the author, and everything I've tried (including uninstall and reinstall) has made no difference. Sad, because I liked iFonz.

Please tell me how to fix the above a bit more specifik...
I don't understand what you mean by: "pairing"
"Pairing" is setting up the ActiveSync connection between the PDA/phone and the PC so that they will synchronise when you connect them.
If you get the error, you have a problem. I fixed mine for a few months, but then the problem came back worse, and the fixes that used to work stopped. Basically, I don't think ActiveSync is capable of doing the job reliably. It deleted all my contacts (losing me a load of names and addresses that I needed and couldn't recover). I threw it out some time ago.
I now use an iPhone which doesn't have any of those problems.
