My previous phone gave a number of options when snoozing a reminder - e.g. snoozing until the due time, snoozing for an hour, snoozing for a day, etc. Is there any way of configuring the TP2 to offer options like this?
TIA
What was your previous phone? Also a Windows Mobile device?
BTW, I'm not sure I can help you, bug maybe this offers some help:

Not exactly what you want, but at least some options to the reminder interval.
Yes it was an Eten Glofish M700 (WM6.1)
The DontForget app looks interesting, but I'm not sure I'd want to pay for this feature! - Thanks

Hi
I have had my unit for a week now and although I have to do a soft reset about twic a day as it gets slow or locked up, I do love it.
One thing I do have to change though, is the fact that the notification sounds are limited and for me not good enough to "Alert" me.
They seem to be more like gentle nudges rather than a "YOU HAVE A MESSAGE,,DAMN YOU".
Ive missed messages and only seen later on the envelope icon.
Is there a way to change this?
Maybe new tones?
or maybe continuous bleeps telling you something has happend and not just I little light you will not see when in your pocket.
Thanks
TK
May have answered my own question.
found this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=27074&highlight=mp3+ringtone
Will give it a try.
Hi TK London
Check out www.pocketmax.net for the alarmToday and PhoneAlarm applications. They will give you highly customizable AUDIBLE and REPEATING alerts for all phone and PDA functions.
The built in repeating aler functions in the PPCPE are not very reliable, but these fime apps fix the problem, plus give you some very useful profile set ups, which alloe you quickly switch between different alert profiles (slient, loud, what you need at home, at the office etc) without having to go in and modify all the settings each time
Hope this helps
Regards
Chris
yeah how do you get it so it the message tone bleeps every so often ???
Hello everyone. I've used this forum for a number of issues, THANKS! Now I seem to have one that I can't find anywhere else.
I have the Siemens SX66 with Windows Mobile 2003. I use reminders for Tasks as well as Calendar events. I have tried on numerous occasions to remove the reminder sound, both through the Windows Mobile Sounds settings and by turning the volume off. Somehow, the alarm (really annoying dinging) still sounds any time there is a reminder, even if the "reminders" are off in Sound settings.
Any help would be appreciated. I'd be glad to provide more information if necessary!
Thanks so much!
Hi I wonder if anyone can help, I've searched the forum but not seen a similar problem, I recently upgraded my orbit to WM6 and everything seemed to be fine but I am now having an annoying problem with the alarms. I have three alarms set 06:00; 06:10; 06:20 for everyday of the week but after I dismiss these when they go off on a morning, I am still getting alarms going off for 7:00; 8:00 and 9:00? Can anyone advise on what I can do, I've tried a soft reset but that hasn't fixed it, has anyone seen anything like this happen?
Thanks
Andrew

I had something quite similar happen after the clock change last year. I had to be sure I was up on time on the Sunday morning of the change so I manually set my clock back instead of waiting for WM5 (NOTE: WM5, not WM6) to adjust automatically. I ended up with duplicate alarm an hour apart - not at 'odd' times like you seem to have.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, I have MemMaid and I used that to identify and delete all alarm reminders in the system after having turned off all alarms in the Time Settings page. I then re-established the alarms at the proper times and all was well.
Might be worth a try?

Hi, would you kindly explain in a bit more details? How do you identify & delete the alarm reminders using memmaid? I have memmeaid installed - pls guide me through. I am having double alarm issues.
Hello,
I have an Orbit with WM6 (original latest german o2 ROM) and it does not turn the display off after an SMS arrived or a missed call. hours later then I hear the tone, that the battery is low. This is annoying. I use spbphone on of two devices I own, newest beta, but it doesn't help.
Is it possible to fix this? I can't live with that...
Setting a time for this is not helping anything...
Is it possible to set another ringtone for SMS, one I can hear? not the original one...
Thanks for your help!

the problem is with power saving configs not with the ring tone - play and manipulate the power settings a little & see how things get!!
no need for 3rd party apps spb phone or another - they are more headache than good (my personal opinion)
Hello,
But I need profiles as the cheapest mobile on market has, but Win CE not...
But spb phone is the best program I could find, but it is unable to turn freespeech on/off e.g. when in car mode.

Dear All,
I found that the above option is not working anymore for the last couple of days.
Not sure if it is because of one of the following cabs that I installed.
1. Spike's Mic Neo Task bar
2. [email protected] color tf3d
Any ideas what would be the cause. Help is greatly appreciated

I don't see how my theme would interfere with that. The CAB package only replaces several manila files and png files. No registry changes.
Have you checked your Sounds and Notifications settings?

Sorry mate, no offense, I am not at all saying that yours did it. I just mentioned that these are the things that I installed off late.
Yes I did check on it and the setting is 'Set to vibrate during appointments' which is not working. Any help?
By the way, I am not a techie guy hence seeking some help here
No offense taken. Just trying to help. As you can probably guess, I have both of those items you mentioned installed on my device. And I've just did a test.
I've set the Sound Profile to Automatic. Then I've created a new appointment so that it would occur right at this very moment I'm testing. As expected, my device switched to Vibrate mode as indicated on my taskbar. I made a call from my home phone to my TP2. As expected, the ringtone did not play while the device vibrated.
So, if you have your Sound Profile set correctly and you indeed had an active appointment, your device should be switched to vibrate mode automatically. If not, I have no more ideas for you mate, but it's definitely not my theme or Spike's taskbar.

Thank you.
But I also later realized that I changed my ring type to 'Vibrate & Ring' and as a test I changed it back to 'Ring' and guess it seems to work ok. So may be that it was the reason.
Thanks for your inputs.
If you have touchflo disabled. Where do you set this option to vibrate when you have an appointment setup ?

Hi Yogam
On investigation, I *think* the Automatic Profile might fail if there's no reminder set for the appointment. Does that help?
Also noticed that all-day appointments cause problems: when I add an all-day appointment for tomorrow, the Automatic Profile switches to vibrate straightaway. Don't know whether it'd switch tomorrow if I set an all-day for the day after, though.
Incidentally, the Automatic Profile seems not to switch for "Free" appointments.
So see, too, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525533 where agentdr8 recommends ageye's G-Profile. I've not tried it but it looks good
Hmm... I've had a quick look and from the forums G-Profile seems to suffer from problems inherent in WinMo such as problems with all-day appointments and Wi-fi in standby
(http://forum.ageye.de/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=735&p=3274&hilit=all+day+appointment#p3274)
So I think my solution at the mo is to stick with WinMo's Automatic Profile functionality remembering:
1) set a reminder for an appointment during which I want a little vibration (sorry)
2) mark all-day appointments as Free, unless I want a little vibration...often (sorry)

Hi Mate,
Sorry, didnt look into this thread for quite a while as I got it sorted out, probably due to some up mess ups in my appointments. But it was working fine after the day.
Thank you very much for taking the effort to send me a PM
