I followed these instructions
------------------------------------
1. Under HKCU/ControlPanel/Notifications find the following keys for Email and Text messages:
A877d65Axxxxxxx
A877d65Bxxxxxxx
2.Also find Key 15F11F90xxxx for reminders.
3. Copy the Options value from the Reminders key and overwrite the options value in both email and text message keys with this value (1073741853)
4. Once you do this, go to start - settings - sounds and notifications - notifications.
5.UNder events, select new email message OR new text message and you'll notice that th repeat option that was greyed out is now enabled and can be selected.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Most of the time after i check the message it still makes the reminder sound.
How can I correct this?
NOTE***
In step 3 its says
"Copy the Options value from the Reminders key and overwrite the options value in both email and text message keys with this value (1073741853)":
My options value on my phone is 1073741855. Would this be the issue?
I cannot help you with the reg hack...but this is what I did...
I really hate that the 6800 does not continue to notify you on a missed call, voicemail, text, etc...
What I did was bought a copy of pA - phoneAlarm. If there was a cheaper way I missed it but I love the app. I can set it to sound/vibrate every 3min, 5min, whatever interval I want and i can set it to stop after 30min or 60mins, etc...
Great for me because my phone will be in the office after 5p and I can here it beeping when I missed something. Could not get this with the pda as it was...
Hello all,
current version is 1.4.1 beta
my own attempt to add the missing "missed call" and "missed sms" reminder to WM 6, WM 6.1 and WM 6.5
the idea here was to keep it simple. the program can vibrate and or generate a chosen sound at a set interval, to notify the user that there are missed calls or unread sms messages. it will wakeup the device if needed to give the notification.
Note: The program has been created and tested on PocketPC phones only. This program might or might not work correctly on Smartphones.
to use:
install the cab on the device or the storage card.
launch the application and set your preferences.
click apply, the program will minimize. it is neccessary to keep the program running to have it generate new reminders, but it only uses the cpu when needed it does not poll every minute or so to see if a notification came in.
hope that someone will find this usefull
The program currently offers the following:
missed notification for missed call/ sms / mms and e-mail
No reminder when call is in progress
Option to set sound per reminder type (the sounds will,if needed, be generated all at once for the moment, this could be changed in the future)
option to "minimize to taskbar" or "minimize and hide"
Lock screen on phone call connect (I am using this myself and decided to keep it in. it locks the screen using the windows lock when a phonecall is connected. it unlocks the screen when a phonecall is finished. Default this is off, and you do not have to use it if you do not want to.)
Option to set vibrate time in seconds
LED vibrate number can be chosen from 0 till 20
Option to not wakeup the device
Option to not give reminder in set timespan (if you specify from 2300 till 0700, it means that the program will not generate a reminder between 2300 and 0700 each day)
About box
Should display in QVGA/VGA/WQVGA/WVGA
The program uses almost no cpu time, only when it is needed
one "advanced user" registry key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MissedCallReminder:
debug: Default is "False", if set to "True", the program will generate debug information in a logfile. to help me indentify problems.
NOTE: apparently Omnia devices use the sms count for both SMS and MMS, that means that the program should generate a MMS reminder if SMS reminder is selected. I would like to hear from Omnia users if this is true.
1.4.1 beta release
bugfix: Reminders are given for a notification even if the notification is not selected in the notifications tab. (second attempt )
bugfix: If no reminder between is used the program does not correctly follow the time rule
bugfix: program still vibrates the phone if phone sound is set to silent
TODO (Things that will be in a next version):
Multi language support
WISHLIST (Things that might be in a next version, if i have the time and can make it work)
Option to stop generating a reminder after x minutes
option to stop generating a reminder after x times
KNOWN BUGs (things that,if possible, be fixed in a next version)
A small FAQ
Q: what does Vibrate LED number mean?
A: The LED number specified here is used to vibrate the device. This is different per device. Using the "Menu - Test vibrate" you can test if the number entered in the vibrate LED number field is the correct one for vibrating the device.
Q: what does the menu option "No icon in taskbar mean?
A: the option "Menu - No icon in taskbar" controls the "minimize to taskbar" or "minimize and hide".
When "No icon in taskbar" is NOT selected the program will minimize to the taskbar. the program can only be reopened using the icon in the taskbar. it is not visible in the taskmanager.
When "No icon in taskbar" is selected the program will only minimize. it can be reopened by relaunching the program. it is also visible in the taskmanager.
TouchFlo user should select the "No icon in taskbar". when doing this please close the program and relaunch it for the setting to take effect.
Q: What does "Lock screen on call connect" mean?
A: it locks the screen using the windows lock when a phonecall is connected. it unlocks the screen when a phonecall is finished. Default this is off, and you do not have to use it if you do not want to.
Q: I cannot relaunch the program when it is already running using the program icon.
A: please see post # 2:

Further explanation for the program does not start from program icon
I'll try to explain with some pictures how the program behaves when the no icon in taskbar option is selected or not selected. Just to be sure that it is not the cause for users who are experiencing problems with reopening the program using the program icon:
first situation:
You have installed MissedCallReminder and you start it for the first time, If you change nothing and select Apply the following will now happen:
Menu - no icon in taskbar is NOT selected (noiconintaskbar.jpg)
The program is not visible in any Taskmanager's application list
The MissedCallReminder icon is visible in the taskbar (Iconintaskbarnotselected.jpg)
When this is happening the program will not react to clicks on the program icon in the programs list, it can only be reopened using the taskbar icon.
second situation
You have installed MissedCallReminder and you start it for the first time, you select Menu - no icon in taskbar AND completely exit the application using Menu - Exit. You then restart the program and select Apply and the following will now happen:
Menu - no icon in taskbar is selected (Iconintaskbarselected.jpg)
The program is visible in any Taskmanager's application list (visibleintaskmanager.jpg)
The MissedCallReminder icon is NOT visible in the taskbar
When this is happening the program will react to clicks on the program icon in the programs list.
Request: If users experience this and are certain the above situation is not the case then i would be very interested in what the program registry settings are. if you are able to do this could those users please open a registry editor and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MyMissedCallReminder and tell me the value of the key "minimizetotaskbar"
cool.. i'll be using it
FootPrint?
What kind of a footprint or memory usage does it require?

Looks neat
Throwing in an idea, hope it's ok. It would be good if you could have reminders for only missed calls and not messages (or the other way around for that matter - looks like you will get the same reminders from both on the screenshots).
I'm biking a lot and don't always won't to stop to read a new message, hence reminders can be a bit annoying. On the other hand, I'm wearing my headset so I always pick up calls

i am currently working on some "improvements" like having it minimize to the taskbar. i think i will also include the option to turn a reminder on or off for unread SMS or missed call
OMG thx man very much,i was looking for a prog. like this for a while now,thx again great post
Good Job, it works on my KS20
I like it, it is simple
No Vibrating
No vibrating on ASUS P535!
How do you HTC people cope with the reminder witch turns on the screen. In your pocket, an unwanted touch on the screen could run an application?
The Asus P535 has an HOLD button!
Too bad the button apply can't be reached with a 240x320 (landscape) display like the one used on the IPAQ 914C

when applying the settings you can also specify the LED number to vibrate (default is 1) . please try this. perhaps it will be usefull to have a test option.
regarding the unwanted touch problem, i personally use S2U2, so when the device wakes up i do not have this problem.
what i can do is add an option that the device does not wakeup when a reminder is given. but that does mean that you will not hear any reminder until the device wakes up.

There are programs that still work in SLEEP MODE (for example, autoflight is always telling me the time....even in sleep mode).
*Memory heap size = 1Mb (OsRemindMe = 1,6Mb)

i think the LED number for vibrate could be any number between 0 - 5, but i do not know for sure, it is 1 on my Touch. i must admit that setting the LED number is not very clear for first time users. I do not know how to make it so that it automatically uses the correct number.
I'm in the impression that you can not hear a sound if the device is in sleep mode. but perhaps i am mistaken? Autoflight generates a sound without waking up the device?
Thanks it's great
Always wanted an app like that for my WM6.1
nice piece of work
pretty nice work.. however, it would be good if following things can be revised?
--> can you plz add in a feature "number to repeat". FYI, i'm now using Throttle Launcher. So, i can't trigger off the reminder alarm. it would be good if it stops automatically after x-times (which can be set by user),
OR..
whenever i read/aware the missed call/msg, this reminder program would detect that missed call / unread msg = 0, thus OFF the reminder automatically. (This would be preferable)
Many Thanks....
add in some extra information..

regarding above statements, perhaps i shall further clarify....
a) add in "number to repeat"..
example: reminder will give notification every interval of 2mins for 5 times
I'm now using Touch (with Throttle Launcher interface, 240x320), perhaps this reminder program need user to off it manually? yet, it's too bad that i can't trigger this button... so, i suggest 2nd option which stated above....
Thanks...

if the user dismisses the missed calls and marks the unread sms as read while the program is running ,the program should know when not to give the reminder anymore.
however problems can arise if the program is not running and the user dismisses the missed call/unread sms notifications. the set reminder will then not be cancelled. this should be fixed in the next version. the next version will also have an option to clear generated reminders.
Hi,
Thanks for your prompt reply. Personally I think this program has great potential. Just wish it could be revised to a better software.
I tried it yesterday. It rings to notify me that i have missed calls / unread msg.. somehow, I went to read the msg and checked the missed call.. yet, the reminder won't stop.. (and i din see any button to be pressed to stop, if there is any? )..
plz advise?
Thanks
Is there some way to change the tasks and appointments notification system behavior in WM? Mine is already tweaked for use the classic alert interface,instead of the HD2 default one, and which I can choose between several predefined options for delay the task reminder, but from my point of view, this is very unpractical, because, in most of cases, this predefined times are not the ones I need. Other think that annoys me a lot, is the behavior of this notification interface when I choose the option for edit the task -> if I edit the task and change the hour of the reminder for, let's say 2 hours later, after press the ok button, WM doesn't closes the notification (as it does if, I choose the "delete task" one); it remains opened, and if I push the the dismiss button all the changes maked in the edition will be lost.
Moreover, most of all PIM apps, like Agenda One, ThumbCal, an so forth, use this built in WM interface for throw it's alerts, so this apps, in some way become unusables too.
SO... The questions are:
1. Is there some way to change the WM behavior with the alerts?
2. Is there some way to via cab, registry hack or so, for to get a menu where you can choose a desired delayed time for the task, alert or appointment in a precise way?
3. Is there some way for auto-close the tasks alert popup after edit it?
Thanks in advance and sorry if I didn't express mysell better. English is no my home language.
So is not possible?
Hey,
I'm new to android and i have used this forums a lot,
But now after i've searched for like several hours (Both here and in google..) for a solution and haven't found it i decided to sign up and ask it...
I'm using "Minimal Text" widget for my lockscreen (WidgetLocker)
and i want to add a Unread SMS Count number,
I Understood i need to create a Locale Variable for this one and read the tutorial on the "Minimalistic Text Wiki".
I Must add i'm also a complete noob with the "Tasker" app and just downloaded it for this particular use of creating a Variable.
The problem is, even after reading and doing exactly what the tutorial says,
And even trying to create a Variable manually in Tasker i just can't display it on the Minimal text widget no matter how much i try..
What could be the problem?
Are you setting the minimalistic text variable? For example, on your text received profile you should have two actions. The first sets a variable, lets say %SMSUNREAD. The second is Minimalistic Text variable, under plugins. For this you configure the variable name to be something else (%MNMLSMSUNREAD for example) and the content is %SMSUNREAD. You then configure Minimalistic text to use %MNMLSMSUNREAD.
Also you need to make sure Tasker is selected in Settings>Accessibility as an Accessibility Service.
Lastly, there seems to be reported issues with Tasker and deodexed roms. Are you running a custom Rom?
Hope that helps.
First of all thanks for the reply,
I noticed i Don't have tasker checked on Accessibility, Neither "Accessibility" checked.
I've checked them both but still, it doesn't show the amount of unread SMS...
here is what i have:
Tasker -
"New SMS" profile:
Received Text,*,* -
Variable Set "%SMSCOUNT" to "%SMSCOUNT + 1"
Minimalistic Text variable settings "%MNMLSMSCOUNT = %SMSCOUNT"
"Reset SMS" profile:
Messages (stock android messages app) -
Variable Set "%SMSCOUNT" to "0"
Minimalistic Text variable settings "%MNMLSMSCOUNT = %SMSCOUNT"
And of course a locale variable in the Minimalistic Text widget of "%MNMLSMSCOUNT" but still, Shows nothing.
I have just done some testing with Tasker and it seems like Nothing i try work,
For example i made a new profile with the task of showing some custom notification when i receive SMS,
or Display a popup when i turn my BT on, and Nothing happens....
What can i do to make tasker even work?!
PS. in my notifications bar i have "No Active Profiles" under tasker although it's all On...
Alright just wanted to update you, got it to work,
Well i just made it from the beginning Not following the tutorial,
Instead of the "%Variable + 1" i used the "Variable Add" oprion and WITHOUT the "Do Math" check.
