hi hi hi,
say, i was wondering, i found a tweak on this board to make the phone wake up on new sms, but is there a similar tweak for e-mail and mms?
thanks in advance
mine already does that, quite annoying indeed but the saving factor is the lock on the phone or else anyone'd be able to read my mail.

Hi there,
Installed the Crossbow version of WM6. It's really good apart from a few annoying probs.
- My backlight button doesn't work! So I can only turn on the phone using the 'POWER' button. VERY annoying!! Anyone know how this can be reprogrammed?
- When sending a SMS Text, the 'NEW' button has gone and now is replaced by the 'DELETE' short cut. This means that it more clicks to send a SMS. Again a bit annoying.
Any ideas how I can get passed these problems??

Not sure on your backlight issue as have not used that particualr rom.
Is there not an option to remap the buttons in settings?
As far as SMS issue, if you go to contacts, you can simply right click on a contact to send a new SMS, or if you are in messaging it's just one extra click, menu, new.
You can always install the "New Menu for WM5" applet which will replace your
calendar and give you the functionality you had in WM5, new note sms etc.
A simple search on the forums should bring up the cab for you.
Hope this helps

Thanks for that. I will have a look.
The 'NEW' button just meant I could create a text really quickly without tapping too many buttons. I know its only one extra click but its annoying
Also it means I might delete texts by mistake!

I use this app and think it really transforms WM6. Very useful, takes up no system resources significantly and is customisable (I have it as the left option button in the today screen, with new SMS, new Word doc, new contact, and a couple others).
Recommended.
OK will search for it
Anyone know how to fix the LIGHT button issue????

Hi,
Can you explain in more detail what your Backlight button issue is?
Are you syaing the backlight doesnt turn on/stay on I'm a little confused as to what you require. (maybe I need more sleep)
Cheers ,
Beast
could be a nice replacement for the now defunct videocall button..
but i think this is a really annoying problem, which by the way is not affecting everyone as far as I can see..it must be solved since these solutions are a good replacemente, but that's it, a replacement...are there any ideas about the origin of this issue?

yes i has the same problem not just with wm6 but also after i had downgraded my jasjar to wm5.0 latest rom so what i did was i searched and downloaded a program called button mapper or map or somthing like that or better yet if youve got the SPB pocket program it will allow you to reconfigure your hardware button for Backlight to switch to " Screen toggle" otherwise this function is not usually available to reconfigure.

Fair play.
I did try and search but found F-All. I'd like to see your search string that brings up this finding. I am not going to spend my whole day searching
Anyway the other problem still exists re: New Button
But thanks for helping regarding the backlight button, I can confirm it NOW WORKS!

I do not have any problems since i don't even have wm6, I was just wondering about the origin (not solution) of this problem another user had and begging for the expert to solve those annoying bugs; moreover I suggested a small and personal solution for his problem, so it's not my task to search for something I don't even need. please next time read carefully before reproaching who is not involved in the fact!
Moreover, I think I'll have a prize for having used since the first time the function "search", one of the few, and having always begged for pardon when many pointless researches obliged me to post about a topic already discussed

A lil work around to allow the video call button to be used to create a new SMS message.
I was going to tell you to use the search function too, and show you how my search for "new sms" or "sms" brings up that result...but when I tried using those terms it brought up nothing?!? Searching for "softkey" does bring up my post. Maybe you have to enter words with more than 3 characters for the search to work, which is a bit annoying!
Either way, hopefully the link provided will be of use...

my appoligies to you, i did not intend to qoute you, but once i did i was too lazy to change it..
however if you look at the second link...you will find the origin of the problem.
I installed the new official 6.1 ROM from HTC on my Touch Cruise. I is working gread, but there is one VERY annoying feature that I want to get rid off, but I can't find a way.
It is that foolish manner of showing the SMS messages as some kind of chat conversation. How can I get rid of that ? I want to use the old fashioned way of SMS being just an SMS, not a chat conversation.
Search the forum for the registry entry to turn off threaded SMS.
I have seen this new feature on the new ROM and I thought it was cool at first. It's starting to annoy me a little bit, so we'll have to see whether or not I get that annoyed I have to turn threaded SMS off.
yeah some parts are a bit annoying. like viewing the timestamp of a text was sent a couple of days ago. haven't quite figured that one yet. the other thing is the performance hit with threaded sms, as well as when the keyboard pops up combined with the area to write in, not much space is left to see the previous message anyways. maybe i should turn it off....haha...

I take this back. It's pretty annoying now!
After digging about, I found this superb fix in a .cab file:

U cud use Mod SMS V 2.0
Maybe you could use this:

Hi guyz,
Googled it with no real solution, nobody in the Touch Pro forum seem to have it either.
Is there any way to disable waking my ppc or at least lock the touch panel on notifications like low battery, appointments etc. Message notification is easy to disable, Answerkeys Disabler works like charm when it comes to incoming calls but I want to disable waking up the device on any notification and have only audible alerts.
Often when in pocket or case my TP wakes on low battery or appointment reminder and starts random dialing, texting, etc. which is getting annoing.
Thanks in advance,
dEM
there may be a registry key you can delete so that you don't get notifications at all.... i'm not real sure about which ones though. i'll look around.
EDIT: SHNotificationRemove at msndn :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa455968.aspx
Good question,hope someone has an answer
how about usin s2u2? doesnt solve it exactly but maybe a workaround?
There are some locking solutions over there. I'm looking for one that doesn't lock my device all the time but only on these notifications. The best will be if it doesn't even wakes up.
Just great! More than a month I've been trying to find a solution to this problem with no success!
Hi,i hope this keeps the thread alive,i would also like to know if its possible and how
Me Too!
I have this exact same problem. When a reminder alerts me on the phone it wakes up the unit and turns the display on. If this stays in my holder it just keeps the phone on because it senses all the pushing... We have a PIN enable so it won't do anything major. But there are times I've pulled out my phone to find it awake (on) and there are * in the password field - so I know it is sensing touches when in the holder. This definitely drains the battery.
HELP PLEASE! Any Fix found?
I'm having this problem as well - anybody out there got any ideas...?
I hate how there seems to be no solution to this! It didn't happen to me in WM6.1, so it must be buried within 6.5 in some dark, fetid, unreachable place :-(
I keep accidentally dialing people with my bum when one of my reminders goes off. Grr!
EDIT: I did finally cave and install a slide to unlock feature (S2U2) which I got from http://a2-s2.com. I was surprised with the level of customization you can do with this program, and I do love how I can have the slider's wallpaper change randomly, so I am greeted with a different image each time I unlock the phone. I know it's not what any of us were looking for, but it's a workable solution for now.
I've since gotten round this by using PocketShield - works well for me. Doesn't work well with the PIN lock though....
I'm using Smartlock for locking the screen; incoming call and stand return from suspend.
It has an option "suspend after lock".

disable wake on notification
finally figured it out, a few years later.
still can't find a factory setting for it, but i downloaded NILS (notification lock screen) and it gives you the option to disable wake on notification. hope it helps
Hi people.
I've spend a couple days searching and trawling around google and various fora (including these ones) but can't seem to find exactly what I want... which is:
I want to be able to disable email, SMS and MMS notifications at night when I'm trying to sleep. However I still want to be able to hear the alarm I've set to wake me up in the morning...
I realise I could do this manually through the "sounds and Notifications" menu in WM6 "settings", but its a right pain in the arse.
I've tried the PhoneAlarm free trial, but it doesn't let you switch off specific notification types like e.g. just email and SMS, but not general alarms.
Anyone got any ideas or can suggest a program. I don't need lots of bells and whistles and other unnecessary control features - just a quick way to set the profile to a setting that turns off email and SMS notifications, but keeps on alarms - I'm even happy to press a button for this each night and don't mind if it doesn't automatically switch at my preferred time.
thanks in advance for any help guys.
ps. I'm running stock O2 WM6.0 UK ROM - I've never changed it... so please, please, please don't tell me I need to upgrade the ROM to 6.1 I'm way too busy and need my phone and pda working at all times to be dealing with flashing a new ROM and re-installing all my progs and entering email settings etc...
PhoneWeaver
I use a timed silent profile that switches back to normal before the first alarm of the day
hi
use spb phone suite for this, it allows you to switch. There are other programs that do this that may be free but i cannot for the life of me rememeber they were i somewhere on here i think... someone started a thread on it
and for alarm use g-alarm as its by far the best out there, if your not already using it that is
Hey all,
I've been using go sms for over a year, but I'm just getting annoyed at the old school look and increasing lag. I love the options but am finding myself drawn to the inverted stock sms app on cm10.
My questions is, does anybody know of a way to automatically turn on the screen when receiving an sms like I could with go sms? I've tried it with tasker and can't figure out how to do it, but I'm a total tasker noob. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've googled this and can't find a good response that sticks with the stock app.
