BJ II- How to bring back Message icon? - Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other

Hi, I am on Samsung Blackjack 2, AT&T, and recently I updated into 6.1, everything is well and fine.
With the new sliding panel layout, I do not see the message icon that used to come on the topmost row when a new message or email is received. You know, just to the left of battery, reception signal and 3G indicators.. Its not coming on anymore. Only thing I see is in the notification panel, where it is easily missed.
Is there any way, registry hack or otherwise to re enable the message symbol on the top row?
PS: I am not using rinku iconbar, just the default view
Much thanks

switch your home screen
switch your home screen to sliding panel media and you might want to grab a copy of chome configurator available in the excalibur forum

How to remove Email Sent icon from top bar?

Hi all
I have a QTek 2020i (Alpine) and recently when sending an email, I get an icon appear on the top navigation bar of the Taday screen (icon looks like an envelope).
when I tap teh icon I get a box up saying Message Sent...but i can't seem to get rid of the icon?
this is anoying as when I want to check if I've had any mail I now have to open up the messages app rather than simply looking at the screen.
Any ideas if this is a known issue with a known fix?
I haven't updated any of the ROM's or Radio stuff but please don't suggest this unless you know that this is a known fix - I don't really want to start messing around with the unit unless I have to as I haven't had any other problems with it.
Cheers

if you use pocket plus or some other program which really close applications insted of the std WM way where applications are just minimized then you
need to
1 change the program so it dont do it when it comes to outlook
2 wait unless the icon is gon before you close outlook
Seems to have worked...I'll keep an eye on it over the next week or so.
Thanks for the help Rudegar.
Cheers

Touch Flow 3D Hack Wanted

I have the new HTC Fuze phone. AT&T has an icon on the main slider bar, how can I get my own icon on that bar? According to the manual "You cannot replace a slot in the AT&T tab with another program", so makes it seem it is not just a registry entry or config file somewhere.
I have an app that when running is in the system tray on the today screen, but with the flow 3d enabled I can't get to it and bring it up. I have to turn off flow 3d.
I'm sure there is someone out there that can give some sort of direction.
Thanks.
I think it is baked into the manila.exe for the choices of the menu. I guess I will have to just live with adding apps to the Programs section, just wanted a quicker method.

Help me can't see notification throught softkey

I have a problem since i use smartphones with notifications and reminders : when it came no problem i can dissmiss it etc but if i see it after ,the softkey shows "notification" only few millisecondes then shows the normal softkey for 3secondes (i will soon try without custom softkey) and it loop. Futhermore when it happens i can't see any notification icon in taskbar (i don't known if icon should be there) It append for all notification and reminders (task calendar missed called) and in my two device htc p3450 and etenX800 and with both wm6 and 6.1 the only app i have always in the two device is QuickMenu 2.7 (very nice) (i will try to remove it). the problem is not always but is geating worst when i install more apps(maybe one of them is the problem).
Does somebody knoes how to fix this. or at least.
Is there a solution to make a notification window active without the softkey and without icon. Is there a solution to always show notifications Icon.
Thanks and good work(very good site full of information).
help me please
if something is not clear i can even try to send a video of the pb
What phone, OS, ROM, and reminders? If you are using custom softkeys, try removing them.
thank to help me
Curently my phones 3450 WM6 latest official rom
and EtenX800 WM6.1 CustomLight Rom(i had official before)
i have this problem with all these configurations and quite all notifications and reminders (ex : missed call, task reminders,the notification a the first windows startup who ask for sending info to microsoft ,etc...)
the notification which is the most blocked is the one generated by quickmenu when i tap on his battery icon.Futhermore as i haven't seen this problem in any forum and as i have this problem whit very diferent configuration (OS PHONE ROM PROG)i think this probleme come from Quickmenu which is the only common point i see.
I am asking myself if somebody else has already seen this? answer will be welcome
I have removed custom softkey and i have seen the problem again
I Have Found
I have disabled the QuickMenu taskbar icon which indicate free memory and battery and the problem has disapeared.
But it's a shame i loved to see my free memory ram in the taskbar.
Is somebody know a app or a way to show free memory ram in text and in Mb on the taskbar. (i already found wktask which doesn't work properly)
Hello,
I discover this topic which is close to my small issue: since I migrate to a Manila 2D based Rom (HTC Polaris / P3650), the reminders notifications pop up as expected but aren't anymore replacing the left softkey on my today screen (when the notifications pops up, everything is ok, but if I don't immediately press any key, it definitely vanished from the today).
The taskbar and menu bar icons are ok but since this notification disapears from the today's softkey, I'm not anymore abble to directly open the notification's menu, nor the text notification.
Is there any registry key where I could fix it ?

Sorry for multiple posts... seems there is some server bugs

Alerts vs. menu bar

I'm not sure if this is a setting or a byproduct of TF3D, but I can't stand the way that alerts work.
If I have a reminder for an upcoming appointment, the notification toast doesn't appear at the bottom like it did with my Mogul and other WM devices. The chime goes off and the alert icon appears on the menu bar, so I hit that, I get the menu bar selection screen and then if I hit the alarm bell, the toast displays at the bottom.
I'm running the default Sprint ROM for now, with some of the basic tweaks. This (and the inability to use a 4-pin headset) are my only real remaining beefs.
Is there a config or tweak I can do, is this just the way it is?

I have a ATT fuze so I dont know how much of difference the set up is...Did you look in system, sounds and notifications then notifications then scroll to reminders and make sure display message on screen is checked...What else have you installed that could be interferring?
Slawcops hint did the trick here.
After upgrading to the newest HTC official (dutch) ROM, TF3D was always in front of such system messages.
By going into the setting menu, sounds and notifications, notifications tab
then selecting "Reminders" (I guess thats what's it called in the english version) in the dropdown box and enabling the "show message in screen" my problem was solved.
Hope this helps!
edit: It would seem this action is needed every time after a soft-reset...if anyone knows where and if this value is stored in the registry, I would really like to know.

start menu bar replacement wm6.5?

I was wondering what the simplest/best start menu bar replacement for wm6.5 is... i can't seem to search for the right thing.
I want to replace the entire start menu bar... w/ teh start button, the time, the sound, and notifactions (like wisbar or gigabar used to do back in teh day)
the reason why i want to replace it is because I don't like how my notifications are displayed. Currently, if I have one notification, it shows teh correct icon (missed call or email). But if I have 2 notifications, it shows the generic "notification" icon.
I'd prefer to see separate icons... i.e. a missed call icon, followed by an email icon to indicate these are my 2 notifications.
Moreover, on my phone (ipaq glisten), if I receive an email, the notification will show up on the start menu, but if hte email gets cleared on the server, the ipaq will also clear it (and it won't show up on my today screen), however, the icon remains until i go to the mail app (even though there are no longer any new mails). This is annoying.
Any suggestions? I don't need anything fancy... it's really just the nofications that are bothering me.
Moved as not software release.
i guess my question can be simplifed to:
if i have more than one notification, how can i get them to display separate icons for each type of notifcation (instead of a generic "balloon"/notification icon)?
If anyone has used Windows Mobile Standard (non touch screen), you know what i mean. If i get an email and a missed call, i see 2 different icons on the startmenu/status bar.
my second question is:
if i receive an email, my phone will show the email icon on the start menu bar. this is great. however, if i don't touch my phone (so the icon is still there indicating unread email), and i check the mail on my computer, so it's marked as read, it will also be marked as red on my phon. this is also great. HOWEVER, it will still show the mail status icon in the start menu bar, even though there are no new messages anymore. To clear it, i have to go to the mail app...
bumpity bump... seems like this subforum is dead!
the email thing is still a really annoying issue... after clearing emails on my desktop, and i take a look at my phone, i think i still have new emails.. but i don't... it's just the icon isn't going away until i go to my inbox.
lol already on the third page... i hope i get banned for bumping again.
really, no one knows of a) a fix for my described problem or b) a program which shows all the notifications?
