Is there a way to adjust the "snooze" time on the Tilt 2? I was able, on my former phone, to adjust how long I wanted to set the snooze time for. On the Tilt 2, it appears as though I am unable to do this. Is there a way that I'm not seeing? Thanks for the help.
I am assuming you are talking about the snooze time for appointment reminders ?
There is a cab called Crackwhore snooze options that will give you that option back. It will change the reminder notification back to the standard WM mobile version, but it works great.
For your convenience, here is the cab

Thanks for the reply and for supplying the cab. I was referring to setting the snooze for when I set the standard alarm clock. (When I wake up in the morning, I never get up right away - I really rely on that snooze button...) The cab that you've given to me should work for this, right? Thanks again for your help.
You can all try THIS if you don't want to use the cab. It works fine on a Verizon TP2.

Not sure about the alarm clock snooze. I use G Alarm for that, you need to buy it, but can also look for the 1.5 version that is still freeware. It will give you different snooze options, and you can set various alarms and patterns.
Does the trick for me.
Here is the link to his site. For the freeware version, you need to search this site, I am sure the cab is floating around somewhere.

Thanks a lot for the tip; however, I think that your suggestions are way ahead of what I know how to do. All I could think of was to look in the Windows directory to see if I could find those files - I didn't. I did, however, do as someone else suggested and downloaded that "snooze options" cab. It seems to have done the trick. At any rate, I appreciate your time and suggestion. Have a good night.

Sorry it is not working for you.
I assume you have soft reset the phone after install.
So after install, when there is a agenda reminder, you do not see the snooze options ( remind in 5 mins, 10 mins.... etc)
I know there is another version for this floating around, however than one broke my status screen (when tapping at the top screen, the overview that shows battery status, and missed calls, reminders, etc)
Not sure what the name of that cab was.

Sorry 'bout that . . . That's a registry entry that would need to be edited with a registry editor. The cab file may have done that, or something similar. Glad you got it working.

I don't know if the cab forces a reset after installation. Since it probably makes registry changes, do a soft reset if you have not already do so.
This should lead you in the right direction...
I too was looking for this with the stock Verizon ROM. When the ulocker for the Rhodium was finally released, I loaded a custom ROM made by NRGZ28 called EnergyROM (or NRGRom)which has a little script file as a shortcut in the Tweaks folder on the Start Menu. It is basically a toggle to either turn on or off the "finger menus". Which alternatively will enable the default Windows Mobile menus.
However; this will do as a previous poster noted. It will also disable the phone status. (although, I could be wrong as I am not running the latest release of the ROM. Anyway, it will give you back those classic reminder, appointment, and alarm snooze options.
Good Luck! I hope this helps steer you closer to the exact fix you are looking for.
I do wish there was an option or fix/tweak out there which would just give you classic options while preserving the look with the finger menus. ("finger menus" are technically the Rhodium Notifications, or something similar to that.)

guys can someone help with a link for WM calendar?
after installing 2.1 touch i had an issue with the left soft key in an appointment saying reply instead of edit. ive reflashed original wm5 rom and then vanmilla and same problem - now the calendar itself is playing up with things missing like letters (no am/pm just a & p) it only shows 5 hours in the working day
im just wondering if another calendar will help
thanks
guys can someone please help with this
for time, there is not pm or am on call register etc etc as well, just seems a bit strange, i re-flashed, hard reset, soft reset dunno what he problem is
the stuff you said, should be able to be fixed by settings (i.e. Flashing not required). the am/pm issue, I think it is in the regional settings. And the 5 hours working one, I think can be set in.. the Calender itself.
i tried all this, no joy, as soon as i add another rom, it all changes, but still doesnt explain why it says reply in the left soft of a calendar entry???
do you have a screendump?

ive just flashed wm5 and the calendar is fine, reflashed 2.1 touc and then the same process with vanilla and again the soft key says reply??? it didnt with wm5???
I'm not sure what you are trying to say, but from the looks of it, it is a WM6 and WM5 difference, nothing much you can do about it.

I think he's trying to say the the right softkey in the Calendar program is set to "Reply" instead of "Menu". Basically, he can't get to the menu now. Can that be fixed with the softkey program in settings? (I haven't explored this application fully, yet) But that doesn't sound right. I don't know how you would correct the way softkeys change within programs - just the home screen.
He may want to try to turn off his firewall and download it again. Then reflash just to make sure.

Thats the way wm6 works
edit is in menu\edit different to wm5.
ahh ok, so its just set like that?
your both right - menu is on the right soft key and edit is in there
i just thought it may be a problem with my rom or phone as the left soft key says reply and its not clickable. its not a big deal im not that fussy and love the software - setlled with touch 2.1 in the end. only reason i was panicking s i thought it maybe a bug or somehting and ruin my phone
thanks so much guys
Is there any way to select the snooze interval on the pro2?
Right now, when I get a reminder, the snooze only has a duration of 5 minutes. There is no way to select a different interval.
On my Kaiser (and many other phones) I could select a snooze duration (ranging from a few minutes to a few days).
This one is driving me nuts. If I want a reminder a few days in advance, only being able to snooze for 5 minutes is ridiculous!

I miss this function too, i was using my kaiser as my morning alarm clock, and it was great to be able to sleep 15 more minutes or 1 hour if i was really tired just by snoozing it...
But now with the TP2, i cannot do this anymore (5 minutes is not enough, and then i dont want to be late for work )
If i recall correctly Windows Mobile 6.5 has functionality for setting the snooze time
This solution for the Blackstone works also fine on the Rhodium.
Thanx to CrAcKwHoRe
Sorry, but this solution still doesn't work for me... before (Ipaq 914c with WM6.1), if I received an alarm notification I could choose a time of 5-10-15-30-60 or som minutes for snoozing time... now I can only choose "snooze" (for 5 mins) or ignore...
DUTCH ROM
Try changing it manually:
Start a registry editor and navigate to key:
HKLM/System/Shell/Notification/OEM
Change the value of CustomUIDLL from NotificationLayout.dll to NotificationLayoutNew.dll
Just add New, it won't find that .dll and starts the old interface, with the snooze option.
Don't forget, after the registry change, turn the TP2 off and back on to activate.
Works for me like a charm (TP2 WWE, but should also work on a dutch machine)
Have you tried using gAlarm? www.ageye.de
It's pretty good! I also use gProfile to automatically switch the phones profile (silent, vibrate, etc.) depending on the time of day.
This fixed work perfectly with my TP2.....Thanks very much.
NJV
This helped a lot, thank you!
But, isn't there a way (registry?) in order to add custom values like 30mins, 2hrs, 4hrs, 8hrs?
Thank you!
Yup, confirmed working on TP2 :> Thanks!

I agree! I don't like the need to install separate programs while this functionality may as well be available out of the box!
I would love that too, but I'm afraid that's not a reg change, but build into a dll
If someone knows how to change that, please tell us!

cRaCKwHoRe's Snooze ...works, but...
it looks ugly - it introduces piece of old interface into new environment... it is not finger friendly...personally, I am pissed enough even to be reminded that to have to use this old ugly dialogue to get rid of it makes me feel even worse - it is hard to believe that there is no solution to this - mabe some app that would handle all alarms including the appointment and task ones...or at least dialogue (6.5 looking) with more times to select from...I spent literally ours googling it with no success - does anybody know some solution? Thanks in advance

I agree, I installed it thinking it would use the Touch Flow interface and allow me to set a longer snooze.
I like how Touch Flow lets you see the info if you have a con call number in the appointment, it makes it easy to dial.

Can't find that key on my T-Mobile [GER] ROM... But I'm not even sure I my snooze is only 5 minutes
Ok, T-Mobile ROM has got it by default.
I sure liked the feature of being able to select, right in the reminder window, a variable snooze time, such as 15 min or 1 day. This was under WM 6.1 on my Tilt. It seems this feature disappeared in WM 6.5. Am I missing something?
I use cRaCKwHoRe's Snooze Options: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3716251&postcount=2280 -- check it out
^ cool. That does not look like a specific Tilt2 cab. Just to clarify you do use this on your Tilt2 with no problems, correct?
Finally got around to using this (after a new ROM install). I am still using a basically stock AT&T ROM on the Tilt2 and this works wonderfully. Back to the same functionality in the regular Tilt.
One step forward and two backwards, thanks Microsoft...
Wow. Sorry I completely ignored your question on 17 November -- I never saw it! Glad to know, however, that all is well now.

Same here.
I too can't understand why such a usefull function would be removed from
the new WM6.5???
I installed this cab on my new Tilt 2 but I don't see anywhere to make adjustments or activate the app?? Maybe it won't work on my model? I did a reboot but I still don't see any app listed in Program Files.
Any instructions would be greatly appreciated!!

Really? Uhm, it isn't an app, but a regedit. It simply adds more different choices of snooze times to your alarms.
Hmmm...
I thought I edited this post to let the thread know I now have it working. I am not real familiar with all the ins and outs of the files, cabs, patches, regedits etc here, but indeed I have my sleep timer back!

I really need to be able to play an extended ringtone and it seems the Blackjack II had a registry tweak to handle this. That tweak doesn't work on our TP2s tho.
I am honestly surprised more folks haven't inquired about this.
do a search on this forum for "NoRingToneLimit" - it is .cab file and it works.
I searched the forum and did not find any hits, so I did an advanced search which took me to the archives.
There is a reference to a fix for 6.1:
mikefordmustang.com/downloads/NoRingtoneLimit.cab
Can anyone confirm this works for 6.5?
Found this as well but I haven't tried it personally. Seems easy enough to test though if you want to give it a go.
- Go into HKEY_Current User > ControlPanel > Sounds
- Delete the key of FileSizeLimit
- Done, You should now be able to set any MP3 as your ringtone.

That is the same tweak I found on a google search that was said to work for the Blackjack II. There is no such entry for WM 6.5 on my gsm TP2.
I did add the entry, using a larger value, and it did not work for me.

You might have already tried this, but did you search your registry to see if that key existed in some other location maybe? I have 6.1 or I'd go look myself...

You know, I did do a search, but it just occurred to me that I searched for files, not strings within the registry.
I am going to do a search on both FileSizeLimit and NoRingToneLimit as strings and see what it comes up with. Total Commander is proving to be invaluable right about now!

I do like TC and can't deny its swissarmyknife-like utility, but for when I just want to zip around in the registry, I like the look/feel of PHM_regedit better.
thx for the tip! i'll look into that ..
Use ceregeditor and browse your phone registry form your computer making it 100 times easier.
so I grabbed ceregeditor and yes indeed, it makes it sooo much easier to search/edit registry entries.
so ... my findings:
Installing NoRingtoneLimit.cab did put an entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds:FileSizeLimit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The default Value Data was set to 0 .. this did not work.
I increased the value to a high # .. i saw 10487200 as a possible value when I found the blackjack ii tweaks .. that too did not work.
Im guessing everything Im doing works just fine for WM 6.1 .. but nobody has figured out why it doesnt for 6.5. I hope there are others out there with more insight into this. I really dont want to go back to my old phone when I go OnCall this weekend!

It works on my AT&T Tilt 2 with 6.5 - Have Hallelujah Chorus (eleven minutes) as a ringtone.
well now i'm bummed even more!
i am going to uninstall the .cab .. reset .. and then re-install .. and reset to see what happens.
iv'e tried different things to come up with a solution and nothing appears to be taking: repeat notifications, filesizelimit, notificationlayoutnew.dll ... i get zilch on each!
wow .. 11mins!
well i am just so frickin' dissapointed in this thing now. i just cant fathom as to why a GSM model would be that much different than an ATT Tilt2.
I guess perhaps using one of the many available ROMs on this site could help? Any advice, anyone?
And that made all the difference!
It finally works!
I knew there had to be something weird about my setup that was causing this not to work for me. I was timing the length of the ringtone and while the longest was at 20 seconds, there were times when it was a little as 10.
I started thinking that perhaps something was intercepting or disturbing the process that killed the ringtone. I never thought to uncheck DISPLAY MESSAGE ON SCREEN.
This is what made the difference. Once the txt message screen timed out and disappeared, the ringtone died as well. Unchecking it allowed the ringtone/vibration to play fully. WHEW! I swear, of all the things to check last ... when will I ever learn!

Hey ppl! Finally got my touchpro2/tilt2...good thing I waited...got it for 1 penny! + the taxes cause I made a new contract! woohoo!
Anyways, I was annoyed with the lack of snooze options, so I added the CrackWhore...whatever patch.
I was wondering if there is anything else? That actually looks good?
The Original Notify Bar that popped up was aamzing w/TouchPro3D, the one that comes with CrackWhores snooze options takes us back to the OEM WM look...which is pretty bad.
ps. Added the Crackwhore Snooze Option cab to this message...in case someone wanted to take a look at it.

# Windows Notifications
* - Enable dismiss X time in windows notifications.
At least I think that is it.
The Screen Rotation feature, for programs other than the Internet browser and teeter is a must have!
Got it working make sure you upload the cab on page one too, for it to run. NetCF 3.5 is required
The reminders option does work...so I removed Crackwhore program.
The crackwhore program "looked" a little bit better for the reminders...but they both still use the old windows mobile look...not the good looking htc look...I might just reinstall the Crackwhore program for this particular function.
The screen rotation option is great, I can now get the whole screen to rotate without having to open the keyboard.
Nvm about the different look of the two programs...I had a "classic Windows Menu" option on, after turning it off the two look the same.
The HTC original one still looks better, but lacks snooze options.
I added the CABS for it BsB Tweaks and NET... it has the same things as the CrackWhore patch, but with a lot more benefits...led lights reminder options, screen rotations in other programs, in case someone looking here wanted them.
Just noticed that the device isn't waking up for E-mail... although I have the "wake-up for SMS" feature for BsB on...any thoughts?
