i saw there are many switching from a rom to another and they waste a long time to set their tweaks like clear type, start menu sound....etc
so, just list your tweaks needed, then you will have a cab file ready with your settings (type whatever you want ), i'm sure you will need this always .

read the red words
Set Button 1 to <Start Menu> ( Done via Start/Settings/Buttons. On my MDA, it's the hardware button on the top left of the screen with the envelope picture on it.)
Change the DeviceID - I change it to <my name>Phone, but this is not that important... just listing ALL my steps
As for the Apps, I have the cabs on my SD card and they don't take that long to install. Mocha VNC requires a Windows installer so I have no CAB for it.
I also forgot about MS Voice Command - I install that as well.
T-Mobile cabs are attached

a cab for IE Cache to SD
I know you have this covered in your rom but I allways have to change the values of the cache and cookies and history to save to SD when I install a new Rom.
also if you have it change the value in the email section to save attachment to SD also would be great
Thank you

History:
I have the Telstra version of WM6 running on my Treo 750 (Australia)
I dont think much of the WM6 vanilla way of handling new SMSs and missed calls. At first you get a notification balloon and beep and vibrate if you set it. Fine, this happens at the initial point and then nothing - there is no follow up, no repeating and no flashing LED. The phone could be sitting in front of you and you would have no idea anyone rang at all. The settings in WM6 for missed call notifications has a 'repeat' option which is greyed out. Useful! whats the story there Palm/Microsoft ?
The next step for me was to get an add-on to give repeating alerts and tried SPB phone suite which works nice. (I wish it would incorporate the flashing LED as a selectable option). The problem then comes with double notification - with a missed call there you have to do multiple presses to acknowledge the standard windows notification and then do the phone suite thing so that the ongoing alerts stop. All in all it was a pain - albeit useful.
After digging up a number of write-ups on registry hacks here's what I worked out for WM6 on my treo;
There are two items to play with; both are in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications
The two items are the long strings that start with a bracket;
{283E0018-..... for the new message, and
{A877D660-...... for the missed calls
you can rifle through all the items and look at the default entry which will give you a description of what that item is for.
not sure if these are the same for all WM6 machines.
The string to work with is 'Options' which you will find in each of these two. (You will need a registry editor, by the way, plenty of entries on how to find one)
Previous info I found suggested the options worked in a base 2 summation using;
1 - sound notifiaction
2 - vibrate
4 - LED flash
8 - Message notification
e.g if you wanted sound, vibrate & message then options would be 11 (i.e. 1+2+8)
I tried this on my Treo but it didn't work properly. The solution I was after was to turn off the windows notification so that phone suite would look after it. Whatever I used, I could not stop the windows notification coming up.
Anyway here's what I found worked:
for the missed calls I set the options to Dec 536870919 (Hex 20000007)
this gives the sound and vibrate and NO windows notification for a missed call.
For the New SMS I set options to Dec 15 (Hex F)
This gives me sound, vibrate, message but also flashing LED! I dont no why the LED part wont kick in for missed calls - maybe someone can solve that part for us.
Anyway, I'm no real wizz on different phones so dont start peppering me with why doesn't it work on my xxxxxx phone. Just passing on what I worked out.
Nice tip.
Thanks!
great tip!
it works
thank!
i suggest to download Spb Phone Suite and you will never missed a call, voicemail, Sms, ever again
How to change all the setting for all Notifications

Thanks for getting me started. I mapped out all the options in the notification area.
I hatted that my brand new Sprint Touch Pro was beeping at me because of an appointment reminder and I needed to dismiss the reminder before it would quite beeping (the Repeat check box is grayed out, but selected for Reminders by default, so it couldn't be unselected). Not anymore
My phone uses MW6.1, so I have only tested these values on this.
First a list of the reminders in the Registry found in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications
15F11F90… - Reminder
695F6B37… - RSS-Hub:New Item
85ee47b2… - QuickGPS
8ddf46e7… - Connection established
8ddf46e8… - Connection disconnected
A877D658… - Begin Sync
A877D658… - Beam:Autoretrieve
A877D659… - End Sysnc
A877D65A… - Messaging: New Email
A877D65B… - Messaging: New Text
A877D660… - Missed Call
A877D661… - Voice Mail
DDBD3B44… - Wireless Network Detect
There are two important keys:
AvailableOptionsOptions
The values in these keys will determine what options are avaliable (AvailableOptions) and which options are selected (Options).
The values relate to the following (in the order on the Notifications tab):
1 = Play Sound16 = Repeat8 = Display message on screen4 = Flash light for ...2 = Vibrate
Just like donr said, you add the numbers of the notifications you desire. So if you wanted all of them selected you would put 31 in the Options key. If you only wanted a message and vibrate you would put 10.
Next step.
AvailableOptions determine which boxes are available and which are grayed out. (we will leave out Repeat until later). Options determines which are selected, and yes you can select something in Options that is not selected in AvailableOptions, it will appear as a grayed out check box that is selected.
So if AvailableOptions is set to 10 only the Display message on screen and Vibrate check boxes will be available, the rest will be grayed out. If the Options value is 14, the Play Sound will be grayed out, unselected; the Display message will be available and selected; the Flash light will be grayed out, but selected and 5 min (Duration key = 5); Vibrate will be available and selected.
So set the options you want to select and unselect using the Available Options key and use the Options key to specify which are selected. Changing the selection in the Notifications tab will change the value of the Options key, but will not change the AvailableOpions key.
The only values accepted for either are 1-15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31
Is is because you can't have Repeat (16) without Play sound (1), that's why there are numbers missing. I tested putting 16 in AvailableOptions and 31 in Options and all boxes were selected, but grayed out.
Now for the Repeat checkbox
Things get slightly more complicated when the Repeat box gets involved. The way the AvailableOptions values function do not change. Setting it to 15 will make each box, except the repeat box, available, with the Repeat box grayed out.
It seems that the Repeat box is governed by the Options value first and the AvailableOptions second. So setting AvailableOptions to 31 and Options to 15 would result in Repeat being unselected and grayed out.
The only way to un-gray the Repeat check box is to set AvailableOptions to 31 (it still matters) and set Options value to 1073741824 + (what you want selected).
So 1073741825 (1073741824 + 1) is only Play Sound,while 1073741855 (1073741824 + 31) will select all of them.
The only thing I can figure is that 1073741824 is 40000000 in HEX and that is needed to turn on access to the Repeat check box. The values added to that affect what happens to after that.
If you set AvailableOptions to 11 and Options to 107374185, all of the boxes will be checked, but Repeat and Flash light will be grayed out.
I have seen different values listed on the web, but the values I list here are what windows assigned when certain boxes were checked and unchecked. I did us one of the values I found on the web to determine 1073741824 was needed to open access to the Repeat check box.
Have fun setting your Notifications.
--Fred
It's nice to give back after gaining so much from the gifts of others.
for some reason my phone doesn't vibrate even though its set to vibrate as i recieve messages.
anyone have a clue ? and is there any notification software i can default to ?
No real answers here i'm afraid.... but you can try this:
1) i assume the vibrate works? when you get a call/txt etc?
2) Turn off the vibrate for e-mails, soft reset, then re-enable vibrate, then send yourself an e-mail and see.
3) If that doesnt work, try editing the registry for the notification (again, set it to not vibrate, reset, then change to vibrate and test)
finally, as i have disabled all notifications for e-mail (i manually check mine when required & dont need to to prompt me as i'd be looking at it!), i dont know if it will vibrate when you get a new e-mail if you already have unread e-mails.
Good luck!
try this, it worked for me
"With a registry editor go to
HKCU/ControlPanel/Notifications
Go through the keys till you find the one for the new email notifications, (look at each key and check the "Default" REG_SZ). You will see an Options DWORD with a number like 5362464 or something. Change the it to anything under 13 (mine is 5). Save and close then go to Sounds & Notifications to set how you want to be notified and it should work.
You can also delete the AvailableOptions dword to enable all options in the Sound & notification screen.
Please use at your own risk, this worked for me but may fail for you."
thanks for the feed back , im about to flash nrg's 52209 build and then try the registry because the first suggestion didn't work :[ thanks anyway !:]
I have the "Display Message On Screen" unchecked for each of these, but the left softkey still changes to "Notifications" when I have one of these. I would like to disable that.
When I use Manila, it appears to be disabled, but I also know it uses its own reg keys for those softkeys and not the built-in Windows soft keys.
When I use Titanium, I don't need that notification message since I can tap in Titanium to get the message.
I just think its kinda redundant and I'm not sure why Microsoft wants both.
Nobody has any ideas?
I found notification settings under HKLM\System\State\Shell\Notifications.
There are 3 keys in this tree that I think control the display of the Today SK.
I haven't played with the registries but possibly setting Active to "0" would stop the notifications.

Active is a key, not a value you can change (like a string, dword, etc).

Sorry, mine shows Reg_DWORD = 1
I did some research and found that for missed calls (the other types of notifications don't really bother me) one can delete - with resident Mortscript for example - the following reg keys/values (while the notification is active):
HKLM\System\State\Notifications\Active\
"CLSID={A877D660-239C-47A7-9304-0D347F580408}"
and
HKLM\System\State\Notifications\{A877D660-239C-47A7-9304-0D347F580408}\
This effectively removes the "Notification" from left soft key, but leaves the taskbar icon (and skin items / alerts for Phonealarm) intact - which is perfect to my mind.
Using Vodafone v1520 (rebranded Asus P550) with stock WM 6.0 ROM.
I have a HTC Touch Pro 2 from Verizon with all OEM software still. It is running TouchFlo 3D front end on it. Every time i send a text message the notification pops up saying the message was sent. This is annoying bc it wont let me type anything else till it goes. The notification comes up in a window in the center of the screen and it looks like its from windows mobile not from the touchflo. I look through all the setting and changed tons of things and nothing, i went into the registry and it was already set to disable it but it is still there. I think the touchflo is triggering it even though windows says not to.
does any one no how to turn this off?
Yh,
Search for these two apps here at XDA and install:
netcf3.5 & advanced config 3.3 (install in that order). Once these have been installed go in to advanced config, where you will find a setting to disable sent notifications.
If you merely wish to hide them, you should be able to go to sounds/notifications and untick display message on screen for sent text (although doesnt always do it)
great program! has a lot of nice options that i like.... but all the setting to disable the notification are already set to disable... grrr
i think the touchflo software is somehow overriding the windows setting and making it come up.
ok, i guess its not the touchflo... i closed out of touchflo, rebooted and sent a message and it still gives me the notification, even though all setting say not to and reg setting say not to
Ok i figured it out. When I was searching around i kept coming across this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox
* Click on Inbox and select Edit -> New Key
* Name the New Key as “Settings“
* Click on “Settings” and select Edit -> New String Value
* On “Value name:“, enter SMSNoSentMsg and in “Value data“, enter 1
* Soft reset your Windows Mobile device and test it with one SMS, and you will notice that the SMS Sent bubble is being disabled
Now when I went to that registry I was already there and already set to "1". The problem I finally found was that it was set as a DWORD and I had to delete it and rewrite it as a STRING. Problem Solved.
