I've moved my post over to this section of the forum (out of the General Section)in hopes of finding one of you really intelligent tech guys who can solve this problem. I do not want to be out of line in posting this on the wrong board and apologize if I have done so.....I'm just really looking for a resolution to this problem.
I have a new Verizon XV6800 with NOTHING installed on it that would cause this problem. Stock out of the box.
On the Verizon XV6800, if you have received(missed) a MMS, the Flashing Amber Light will not appear so you can be notified of missing the MMS.
To the best of my knowledge, all XV6800 owners are experiencing this same problem when missing a MMS??
Under Start>Settings>Sounds & Notifications>Notifications>Event[Messaging: MMS Downloaded or New MMS], the phone will not allow you the option to check "Flash light for" to turn on this feature?? See the thumbnail
I have gone over this with Verizon and ETStarcomm several times and every XV6800 that they have tried does the exact same thing and they really don't care at all.
Again, the issue: On the Verizon XV6800, if a MMS is received/missed, unless you are right there at that very moment with your phone in hand and receive a ringtone(if you've set it up that way), then you will NEVER see a FLASHING AMBER LIGHT notifying that you've missed a message. Only the normal GREEN FLASHING LIGHT will be displayed and leads you to believe that you have not missed a MMS. This only happens with MMS. Any missed emails, text messages and/or phone calls will all cause the FLASHING AMBER LIGHT to come on.
Can anyone on this forum tell me if there is there a way to fix it??
Thanks for your help. Mark

Thanks for your response. Yes, I did see that post and it seems that it could possibly be the solution I've been looking for. I even sent nuchem a PM about that possiblity and he suggested that I install his program to give it a try. I would definitely do that, but his post has references to renaming certain files or registry entries. Yikes!!! I am such a newbie that the thought of even doing such a thing really scares me. Not even sure how I would go about editing the registry and if I did something wrong, well.....I've already got one disabled light so I sure don't need another one, or even worse, a non-functioning device. But, it does seem that his program is very straightforward and really slick. Just remarks about changing the registry and/or file names is causing me to hesitate 'cause I sure wish I knew more about this sort of thing.
I am though, growing extremely sick and tired of hearing Verizon tell me that there is nothing they can do about it. I'm all but positive that someone on this forum has the expertise to resolve what Verizon says they can't. Just need to find that person (I'm really hoping!!).
Thanks again for your response. Regards, Mark

hiya, i'm using Sleuths Developer Rom v3.0, and its all been going fine untill just now ... completely out of the blue!
its easier to explain with pictures. So read my storey thingy:

}
*Explains*
whenever i receive a message, or tap to view one, it automatically scrolls to the bottom of the message (Panel 4) and so i have to scroll up to see my message each time (Panel 5)
this happened completely randomly and it has happened to me before on one of JJ's roms.
i have searched, and done a Soft Reset, i've uninstalled the last application i installed (HTC Custom) to no avail!
i really do NOT want to hard reset as i have everything PERFECT on here now anyone got any ideas????
i must add that this happened randomly while receiving a message and it does it every single time!
would be greatly appreciated as hard reset is not my option ...
Thanks in advance
EDIT:
Ok Kasual has said that its the "D-pad fix" which can be disabled by downloading HTCustom (search it) and then go to "Pocket IE" tab and disable the Dpad fix, then soft reset and its fixed!
Yeah, I'm actually having the same problem. If anyone's got advice, I would appreciate it as well.
Great illustration
I also have that issue...
A hard reset fixed it for me. I have no idea why it happened, but a hard reset fdixed it. YMMV.
ah i foresee a hard rest then =/ argh didnt want to do that!! must be SOME explanation for it surely!!
thanks for the replies guys
I've had this problem with my 8525 since the day I upgraded to WM6, it has never gone away either.
D-pad navigation.
I am pretty sure this is caused by the "D-pad navigation" tweak. I also seem to remember that one of the newer roms is backwards (enabled is unchecked, disabled is checked). Try changing that tweak setting.
D-Pad Navigation
This is the behavior that comes with the D-Pad navigation tweak. You might want to make sure the tweak program is actually setting the registry to NOT have the tweak. I will look for the reference and post unless some one else beats me.
WOW many thanks Kasual!!! it is the D-Pad fix!
i'll edit my main post with a cure
many thanks
Although I never had this problem, I really appreciated your illustration of the problem (and the solution), which is really great!! Had a lot of fun studying
I wish many other users would be AT LEAST so kind to explain their problems with more than 7 words, such as "my dopod won't start anymore, suggestions??"

Stock Tilt2. Every now and then there will be a bubble notification on the top of the screen, and when I tap on it the Notifications screen that comes up shows (underneath Medianet and battery) simply an exclamation point inside a circle, with no accompanying text. Clicking on it does nothing, and Dismiss All doesn't remove it. I have to soft reset to get rid of it.
Any ideas? (Other than flashing a new ROM! I'm actually perfectly happy with the stock ROM.)
This problem is happening on two separate Tilt2s, both with stock AT&T ROM; any ideas? Screenshot attached.

They're multiplying:

Give this a try ..
You should find a use for them, let them breed and then corner the market and sell them.
WarlockW's post should help you out.
If that cab does not fix it, are you running ActiveSync with Exchange?
I had a similar issue with my old phone. It was a problem with my account on the exchange server. I had to have my profile recreated.
No I dont use exchange. I have read around here others having the issue as well though.
I've only experienced with issue with cooked roms. The stock Verizon 6.1 rom never displayed that issue. Unfortunately, I've yet to find the cause.
Thanks for the help with this. I actually am using Exchange. I was using 2007 and updated to 2010 since posting (which involved rebuilding my mailbox), and haven't had the problem since. So perhaps it was that, but I'll post again shortly with an update after I've had some time using it.

Dagordon,
I think its a defect on some of the phones they rolled out. I called HTC support, and they did not have a solution. Good thing for me is that the phone was less than 30 days old. The guy at the dealership took it back with no questions asked when I showed it to him.
I would think that your only option is what you mentioned above (flashing it with stock ROM).
Damn. The problem persists, even with a new Exchange setup. And the fixunreadcount program doesn't fix it -- it'll run successfully but the empty notification will remain.
So rfrancoi, you're saying that this problem only happens on some Touch Pro 2/Tilt2s, as in a different one might not have the problem?
Hey Fellas, i just wanna start by saying yes i've read the previous posts about some people having the "thin line" across their screen but my situation is very unique to theirs.
And as well, this is -- as far as i know the first problem with the Epics, mine at least ..
Ill provide the pictures at the bottom,, i tryed my best to capture them (its a webcam lol).
Any help would be appreciated it ..
Running Absolut's stock deodex'd with bubbys kernel .. This morning i was about to revert back to completely stock to see if that changes it but i just wanted to take it easy until the good ol'e folks here at XDA help me out.
http://i55.tinypic.com/24g0qvs.jpg (during lockout)
http://i56.tinypic.com/289hpuf.jpg (after lockout, as you can see it dissappears)
I've also done the LCD tests, and i have NO line during any of the red or blue or white images, very strange indeed.

I...have no idea. My immediate thought is that if it disappears then screw it lol, it only occurs during lockout. I did not have this problem when I was testing my rom out, but I'll re-flash it in a little while and try to re-create your problem.
---------- Post added at 05:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------
Well i was able to re-create the problem on my rom.
Then I nandroided back to pure stock (even erased root...back to nothing lol).
Low and behold here it is again.
Got a screenie from my nandroid backup (which is untainted stock + blownco's honeycomb battery mod + crt).

Glad to know this isn't a problem with my rom, it's a problem with stock in general. I haven't the faintest idea how to fix it though, sorry
There's always a chance it was supposed to be there, like a way to separate the time, etc part from the lock pattern part. So it could be intentional. Sorry I couldn't be of any further help.
No problem, so far we got about 4-5 people able to confirm this, so this IS "problem" embedded into the phone itself ..
relieved to know it wasnt caused by myself!
I'm looking to build an flashlight app with the LED flash. I know this has been done before, but I'm planning on making the most basic, Metro-style app possible, with really well fitting icon and interface. All the other apps out there that do this are ugly or have ugly interfaces. I'm planning on putting it out for free on here, and if Microsoft accepts it, on the Marketplace.
Only problem is, I'm not sure how to active the LED flash. According to this post, it's something to do with this:
Code:
ID_CAP_CAMERA
. So how do I use that to activate the flash? Having trouble figuring it out.
Thanks.
Please post in correct section.
Firstly this is a question
Second, its about software development.
Moved to WP7 Software Development
I know it is in the undocumented Mango APIs somewhere under System.Reflection. Somehow you capture video without really saving it (with the flash setting on).
Anyone have any more insight into this? I dont really care for any on the market they all have too much "extra" crap or terrible looking icons so I just figure I'll make what I want myself but I too need to know how to get the constant on LED. Anyone care to help?

It was discussed here a long time ago (should be in archives, available with forum search) but also take a look to the Dave's article and app http://www.daveamenta.com/2011-01/led-flashlight-for-windows-phone-7/
So, the key points are:
- you should delete recorded videos by yourself;
- to bypass marketplace validation, you should use Microsoft.Phone.Media.Extended assembly with dynamical load and dynamic function references.

Welcome to the forums! Have a look around, try out the search button.
As WiredPirate mentioned, this has been discussed a few times.
The good news is that it's more of a "not officially condoned" as opposed to a "not going to work" type of support. Continue to use Wallet to your heart's content, just understand that there are certain risks on a rooted device - and Google won't be responsible if you run into problems.
Yea I can confirm that it still works. I only saw that message once... then never again. It just means that if you run a Rooted rom, you won't get support if something goes wrong or your money becomes missing.

This is not true. I spoke with Google CS about this and the man I spoke with assured me that the message meant if the app doesnt function in the way it should, ie. not transfering data via NFC or pressing a button doesnt work, that Google is not responsible to help you troubleshoot it. Not that you cannot cancel your card or retrieve your funds if you loose your phone. The phrase he used repetitively was "Your money is still your money", if for some reason your cash 'disappears' just call and they will straighten it out. But if the app is not transmitting or if it is spazzing out, do not expect them to help you troubleshoot it and get it working properly again, which I imagine they would initially try to do anyways or atleast give you suggestions on things to try but would eventually say "we are not responsible" if you are taking up too much of their time.
I hadn't planned on replying to this question since it has been covered several times but I had to clear up the misinformation.
Today was just the first time I ever noticed this warning in the app like that. I've been rooted forever, but I thought it might have been due to a recent update (and no topics showed up in the little "topic title search" thing).
Been like this for weeks. Its effectively a "user beware" notice.
