[Q] HELP! I desperately need a WP7 reminder app for missed calls/sms! - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I cannot believe no one has developed a reminder app for Windows Phone 7!
Not everyone wants to wear their phone on them at all times. For example, if I want to leave it on the counter, end table, charger, or go mow the lawn, it would be nice to have a reminder chirp and/or vibration let me know that I'd missed something.
And, I supposed my phone would appreciate not having the power/wake button exercised so frequently when I check for missed items. Yes, I'm frequently in environments that make it easy to miss a single audible and/or vibration alert.
Please tell me this app already exists and that I've overlooked it! =)

Me too, I always have to keep waking my phone to check for calls or messages.
This especially worse when I am out say walking in town, even with the volume on max and the options set to vibrate quite often I dont notice calls or messages.

Not sure if I understand what you're asking for, but I really think you're asking for a feature that can't be implemented.
Anyway, this subforum isn't for app requests, please have this thread moved by an admin. Thanks

This would come in handy for Dell Venue Pro users such as myself since there is no notification lights on the device.

If you don't feel WINDOWS PHONE 7 DEVELOPMENT and Hacking --> WINDOWS PHONE 7 APPS and Games isn't an appropriate forum, how about offering constructive feedback as to where it might best be served?
-------------------------------
Never mind, found a forum you might approve of.
FYI, as far as my desired app not being implement-able, I seriously hope you are wrong! But, I'm guessing there *is* a way, like if an app can access the same info as is presented on the tiles when there are missed/unread items.

Greetings, and welcome to XDA-developers
You may notice you might not exactly get the desired answer on this forum. Mainly because you're asking basic questions about the operation of your device that can be answered on a forum more geared for new users. This forum has a format set up more for development questions, bug reports, new development relases, etc.
For basic questions about phone operation, you may try:
* http://forums.cingular.com
* http://cellphoneforums.net/htc/
This forum is first and foremost for development on the Windows Mobile Platform, and to be specific, development on HTC devices. General questions about phones and their basic operation may be better handled on those forums linked above.
You may also ask the question in the "Kaiser" general section, although that format is mainly geared towards development too. I'm not trying to be rude, or trying to scare you off. I'm just showing you where you could go to get better help for the type of question you're asking. I hope you enjoy the site, and await your contributions here. Thanks!

Your opinion about Windows Phone 7 UI!

Hi All,
It's all great to hear Microsoft officially announces the "Windows Phone 7 Series". Another Mobile OS, put there to compete with other OS's.
But I want to know one thing =>
Am I the only one that find the general UI of "Windows Phone 7" unattractive, "nothing special" and bore-some?
The moment I saw the "Start screen", I said to myself: "Damn, is this the UI Microsoft wanna use to show its competitiveness to other OS's??? ". From my point of view, the look of winmo 6.5.3 on the freshly announced HTC HD mini is WAY BETTER than that of Windows Phone 7.
This is just my opinion, now, what's your opinion about the UI?
There's a whole forum about WM7 in the Developing and Hacking section. You can post your thoughts over there and see what other members have to say.
The administration likes to keep this site organized so please check if your post is where it belongs.
Welcome to XDA.
Please us existing threads, many conversations going on in Windows Phone 7 Series
On that note thread closed.

Hi, is it possible to make a sticky of the CHT thread... I constantly have to search this forum to check for updates.

You could subscribe to the thread. That way you can always find it by checking your subscribed threads.

You will find all your Subscribed Threads there..
The thread was moved to Windows Mobile Development and hacking - Windows Mobile Apps and Games.
It's usually on page 1 so there's no looking involved. At the most, it's drifted to page 2(haven't seen this happen yet).

Vanilla Lock Screen Only

I have found this great add-on for any android/windows mobile lover out there its just the basic screen lock look as a android phone. Just download the .cab file below to the device memory, soft reset and you enjoy. As far as I know it works for windows mobile 6.5 with any WVGA screen. I'm not sure who to give credit to but you are out there somewhere

xda needs a "no thanks" button lol, but i believe this does not belong here
Um your wrong on that, because this is an android file so therefore it belongs here even though its not development. So next time keep your comments to yourself.
Um, actually you are wrong so the comments from the previous poster are valid. This is an Android "style" lock but by your own admission it is for WM and therefore should actually go under the WM Themes and Apps section where I'm sure it will find a lot more hits. Android roms don't use cab files, but rather apk files for installations.
There's also no need to attack someone merely making a valid observation.
Thread moved to HD2 Themes and Apps with a 24 hour redirect.
Please next time do not post WM apps in the Android Dev forum. Regardless of what the WM app is designed to LOOK LIKE.

Actually, since I am the Author of the App, and the first place I posted it was in the "Other" thread, I would have to say that this is, in fact, the Otherthread.
Though I appreciate that others enjoy my work, and wish to spread the news about it, it is best practice not to duplicate threads. Thank you for getting my work out to more people, but please next time search the site before posting.
For further information on AndroidLock and updates on my progress for future patches, please visit the apps homepage at drakesart.wordpress.com under Windows Mobile 6.5.

HTC HD2 DFT UltraFruit WLAN not working nor marketplace

Installation went smoothly but WLAN keep asking to re-enter password. It is the correct one, tried different networks. Also marketplace nor people menus work? When pressing them it just goes back to home menu?
Thanks in advance.
Why are you posting here? Isn't there a thread (presumably on the HD2 section of the forum) for this ROM?

no idea, though it was wp7 related.
I assure you, most WP7 devices can use WLAN and the Marketplace. ROM-specific issues should be raised in ROM-specific threads, not by creating a new thread in the Q&A forum for the entire OS.
There's a section of the HD2 forum that is devoted to WP7 on the HD2. If you want to post a WP7-on-HD2 issue somewhere, that's a better place. There's nothing wrong with asking whether a specific problem you're having with an HD2 ROM is a ROM bug or a universal one, but for something like this the answer to that should be obvious.
