Reminder snooze setting - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

On my wizard, with wm 6.1, I was able to select a number of different snooze lengths.
Now with my tp2 when I get a reminder all it says is snooze, and apparently for only 5 minutes! Aggravating.
Any way to get the old snooze options?
Thanks

REminder Snooze setting
Did you get this resolved?
If so how did you do it.
Thanks

No, I didn't. Wish someone had advice... very annoying. I need this for how I use reminders....
Thanks

Agreed. This is extremely inconvenient because I use my alarm to wake me up in the morning. Being the lazy bag that I am, I prefer to get a snooze or two in before I actually get up. I would usually do 10 minutes as it takes me approximately 4 minutes to get back to sleep.
Snoozing for 5 minutes feels so... wasteful. It boggles my mind why they would neuter this functionality since it was so awesome back on my Wing.

It worked! Thanks Mesquire! You define awesome!
On a side note, it also changes the GUI for all pop up notifications, like text messages. You lose some form, but gain some function.

I did the above reg change and I did get the old snooze menu but I lost my nice new soft keyboard. The one I now have is only has a number pad and a P and a W and some curser keys.
I removed the "new" from the file and no joy on getting everything back?
Thoughts?
TIA

Navigate back to:
HKLM/System/Shell/Notification/OEM
And change the value for "UseDefaultUI" back to 0. This should restore the modified UI. Also make sure that the value for "CustomUIDLL" reads "NotificationLayout.dll" verbatim (minus the quotation marks, of course). You might have deleted a letter or two by accident.
And as always... Soft Reset after performing any registry edits!

I tried both of those and still the same.

Which keyboard is this? And are you certain you are soft resetting your device?
I did this myself, but I chose flash over function and restored it to the default function. All my soft keyboards work fine (TouchPal, Full QWERTY).

It looks like a phone keypad. I have a full QWERTY but no TouchPal. I and using the stylist to push the reset button.

The only thing I can suggest is to install crackwhore's snooze options (found HERE). Then Soft reset the device by holding down the power button.
After installing it, uninstall it (so it can revert everything back to the default values), then make the necessary edits to UseDefaultUI and CustomUIDLL to restore them to the proper values. Soft reset once more and it should be back to working order.

Good try but no love from the TouchPal keyboard. I am going to try a Sprite Backup restore from 8/17/09. The check to see if that fixes things....then start to reload all the crap I had loaded since then.
Thanks for the help.

Phone Pad Vibrate

Edited an old cab to remove the version limits. It now works on Wm6.
Install and then dial a number from the standard phone dial pad to test! You should feel a short vibrate when you tap a number button letting you know that it's been tapped.
Add it to your CAB file collection.
Cheerio

What exactly does this do, with Phone Pad? Sounds interesting
It vibrates shortly each time, you press number in dial pad... or I guess, coz it did not work on my TyTN
but mayby is problem with some SPB products, because I have lot of them installed in my TyTN... e.g. phone suite, which can manipulate automatically with sound, vibration and light according to profile settings...
YUP! When you go to the dial screen and tap a number a small vibrate lets you know that a button has been pressed.
I'm also using bunches of SPB programs, but I still get the Vibrate from the standard dial screen.

It works on my Hermes but you have to long-press the key. Press for at least a half second to get the vibrate motor spinning.
Also, be sure to set either "short" or "long" tones in the phone options. It won't do anything if set to "none."
Hey thanks for converting to WM6 I had been missing it for awhile now!
Any chance this will work in WM5? Please and thanks.
Yeah this is soooooooooooo useful tip man, thanks a lot !!^^
Uninstall Issues...
I liked the idea, just didn't like the fact that you have to push the button for so long to get hte vibrate to react, just a fraction longer and it turns into a speed dial. So let's talk about the uninstall....
I unstalled the app, everything went normal. Now I have no keypadd tones at all.
hshortt, can you provide a fix or provide the registry keys that this install/uninstall modified?
EDIT: Nevermind, fixed on my own...
Works with the HTC Touch / Vouge. Just had to do a soft reset twice. For some reason after the first time, the touch screen stopped responding.
I'd like to know what you did to get your keyapd tones back, this program sucks!!!

guys i have tried the solution in the above link, it didnt work out.
if i exported the registry files from a non screwd device, and exported to my mine... will it work out?
This program is not very effective, cause when I tap out a phone number naturally I tap it quickly, and you have to hold for at least 300ms (I reckon) for it to even do a little vibrate.
it somehow needs to be much more sensitive, lower ms or something. Maybe its a limitation of the whole vibrate mechanism in the phone anyway.
Oh well.
Lost All Sounds
after installing i lost all sound output from my back speaker
no music, no ringtones, nothing
it only made my phone pad vibrate but screwed up all other sound output
tried to uninstall & still no fix
also hard reset & gflashing ROM again didnt fix
did it screw up my device completely !!!!!!!!!!
any fix please???
Vibrate dial pad
Thank you ! This is just what I was looking for
Sorry.Didn't find how to delete message
Hi pretty neat program, until I found a better one TouchResponse... This one allows you to even select the vibration time, and it vibrates on every tap on your touch screen. Well the problem is I un-installed Phone Pad Vibrate and now the the sound is gone when I press a phone number. The link for the fix isn't working, so how do I fix it so I can get the sound back???
Did the link for removal instructions get moved/removed for this?
The link from above is still broken. Anyone have instructions on how to remove this app?
could someone upload it on rapidshare, because i canĀ“t load it, thank you

REGEDIT

I was wondering why the regs in a rom keep changing back to original settings
I use regedit to change things, but everytime i change the push mail to 1
after a couple hours it back at 0. so push mail is off again.
I thought that maybe theres a reg that keeps restoring the settings.
But with other settings it doesnt change back, like the wake up at sms.
Because i found a reg in HKEY/local_machine/RegPersisted and its set to 1
i dont know for sure if this has something to do with it, but i think that this whats keep turning back the reg settings.
I also found the same regkey in HKEY/current_user
Could someone explain this to me??before i turn it to 0 and mess things up
Thanks in advance
Are you by any chance using the keypad lock feature by long pressing the "end call" button? It seems to set some settings back to default. I'm not sure if this is the case, but you could try not using the keylock and see if the settings keep their user set value.

What's the problem? If you mess things up, just do a hard reset...
Give it a try, and let us know about the results
HastaSSSS
regedit
i changed the regkey for the persisted reg to 0 but no effect. after couple of hours when i check its back to 1.
same for the push mail,its back at 0.
How the f*#k can i keep the settings i make.
i find it so strange that that reghack for the sms wakeup event is good , but every otherthing i change keeps going back to standard

Threaded texts are not threaded

I have my text settings set to be threaded but instead of putting my text's in a nice orderly thread (like the original TP did) I get all the messages from whoever is sending them at the bottome and everything I sent at the top. Has anyone else noticed this? If so has anyone discovered a fix for this? PLease? it makes it hard to track where my discussions are going and/or where we've been (like when some references a previous text from me I have to search through all the texts from me that are slammed at the top).
The other problem I have is on my touch pro it had the time of the text for every text not just mine, can we fix that too?
Thanks ahead of time. I tried searching but came up with nothing close to what I am having.
Are you on the stock build?
Yes, just got it last night, I like everything about it except this...well, not everything. the start menu takes time to get used to as well...
I forgot to mention that the keyboard doesn't have a CTRL button...who would design a keyboard without a CTRL button? How am I supposed to copy things? especially now that touchflo doesn't wanna let me press and hold and select copy (or what have you)?
most text fields you should be able to straight highlight and copy. For other text you may have to go into menu and set it to "Make text copyable", or something along those lines I don't quite remember the exact words.
As for your SMS, I haven't run across this issue and am unable to find anything via searches. Have you tried disabling and re-enabling? Soft Reset? Hard reset?

You can find an app in these forums called "Rhodium Key Remapper" that will allow you to assign one of the other keys to the "CTRL" function

[Q] Sliding Lock Screen Gone?

My phone was in my pocket, a reminder went off, I left it, thinking I would just let the phone go back to sleep and dismiss the reminder later.
When I got out my phone, the sliding lock screen was gone, and now when I lock the phone by holding the end call button, the Old WM unlock appears as a soft key in the bottom right corner. After pressing it you get the gray screen asking if you want to unlock.
How do I get the Sliding Unlock Screen back?!
been trying to get it back for hours now....
(phone has stock Tilt2 Rom)
no one sure what happened...
Ditto!
This happened to me today! Cannot seem to change it back to the slide lock. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Please help!
I installed HD mini lock. Not bad...

I ended up doing a Hard eset to get it back...cause no one responded...annoying but it works.
I then installed the trial version or PocketShield...and it happened again...but pocketshield is working great to keep away accidental pressing of stuff in my pocket.
I tried Pocketshield, but just kept getting error messages. I want the end call button to turn on a slide lock... and I'd prefer to not do a hard reset...

try anista endkey:
http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709124
or else smabergs action screen, which give a similar set of options to anistas end key only you access it by holding down the power button. Both of these should lock with your default lock application.
If you're looking for an alternative program to the default, try s2u. you can find a link in the continuoulsly updated apps worth installing on the tp2 thread.
Edit: OK, smabergs action screen doesn't have a lock option on it... but whatever it was based on did. There is a link to that application in the smabergs thread, i think.
I know the OP has hard reset his phone to fix the issue, but just in case anyone else is having this problem, the following reg key is probably to blame:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\LockScreen\Enable
Default Value: 1 (for Sliding lock screen)
Changed Value: 0 (for soft key lock a la wm6.1)
I found this because I actually WANTED to disable the default WM6.5 lockscreen as I prefer the soft key unlock, partly because of the memory the sliding lock uses, and also because I want to be able to see the gorgeous sense 2.5 interface when I turn my phone on to see the time
There's also a "ShowLockScreenPicker" value on my phone that is set to 0, not entirely sure what that does though.
Bit late I know, sorry! :/

Tried this & I still haven't gotten my slide to unlock back, any other possible solutions? Besides a hard rest that is.
It is related to pocketshield, everytime I install an update I have to go into the system lock settings display tab and switch it from windows classic to default.
