HTC Notification Manager: How can the handlers be changed? - Windows Mobile Software Development

Does anyone know how to change which programs are called when clicking on notifications in HTC's Notification Manager?
I've been trying things under the HLCU\Software\HTC\Notification manager keys but haven't managed to get anything to work.
I'm running ROMS without Manila, and I'd like my text message notifications, as well as e-mail notifications to open tmail.exe when I click on them.
Has anyone had luck or can provide insight with this?

SMS Alert.

Is anyone aware of an app on WM6 that will allow a decent screen displayed alert of an incoming SMS? Possibly with a picture of the contact displayed too? I find the standard notification crap to be honest along with how SMS is handled in general.
Thanks in advance.
anoyone developed / found a similar app as im looking for one too

Nice theme - what is it? Is it a proper theme or a collection of individual hacks?

I like this. But do you need to let VITO SMS-CHAT running in the background for this new sms popup to be displayed? Is there a way to make this the default Windows Mobile SMS App?

The threaded sms reader that comes with PocketCM Contact is the best looking that i've seen (once you install the Dark Diamond II - 0.3 skin). And it's free!

I use this app, and you don't need to open it for the notification to come up. Just install it and turn off your normal SMS alerts, and it's your default. It's a really, really great program for threaded SMS. It even lets you export all chats into a word file. I just wish they'd come up with some better skins.

Thanks! The TF3D theme is from Lagunadub which is a proper theme. The task bar and bottom bar are Wisbar Advance 3 and I'm using a compilation of a couple different skinners work for that look. I can't take credit for any of it other than customizing it to my likings.

Agreed. What I originally started looking for was a program that had a nicer notification than that of the stock windows notification. I really liked how Vito SMS Chat looked and I've been very happy with it!
now aint this sad, i'd use vito smschat for all features NOW except well.. the threaded sms

I've installed SMS-Chat on a LG Incite and it freezes when trying to use, but if my phone is connected to the computer it works fine. Also, how do you turn off normal SMS alerts. Please help.
For me, the default TF3D threaded sms is just fine.... Can't be bothered to pay for a sms application ffs...!!!

Maybe the newer Manila 2.1 with an own SMS/Mail dialog?
This is in most of the ROMs from here.

However, it does not install on NRG's rom Maxmanila 23554? but I think that the idea is good and it needs some tweaking (other graphic files perhaps) to get it installed on other roms.

Notifications

Hi guys just wondering if its possible to have different tones for various notifications like sms,emal etc or is it just one tone for everything.Thanks.
If you already have some music on your phone that you want to turn into tones/notifications etc, download Ringdroid from the market. Worked well for me!
thanks mate will give it a try
I've got the unbranded Desire from Carphone Warehouse.
On this device, if you go into gmail app, you can change the notification sound for just that app in the settings. The default choice is "use default [notification] sound", but you can chose others.
You can use any sound they just have to be in the right place.
On SD cards root make folders. Then they will show up when looking.
Alarms - For alarms obviously.
Notifications - For message tones.

I'm not sure if your question has been fully answered; but I was wondering the same thing. How to have a different tone for sms, emails, facebook etc.
I know some apps allow for this in their settings but I can only see one place for 'general notifications' and this applies to all types of notifications.

For facebook open the app press menu then settings. You can choose a sound in here.
I think sms and email has to be the same. Someone prove me wrong please.

OK, got ChompSMS and now can uninstall SMSPopup as Chomp pretty much does the same thing. Great app.

[Q] Sms notification behaviour?

Quick question:
I seem to remember that when the little new SMS icon in the notification bar would appear, a drag down and click on it would take me to the whole SMS thread. However after flashing a new standard ROM, when i do this it goes to compose a new message. I also have SMS popup installed but cant see any setting in there that would cause this.
Any ideas how i can change this, so clicking the notification shows the whole SMS thread?
Edit your title so that people browsing can see what kind of help you need. Simply having [Q] as the title isn't really acceptable.
Hmmm, no idea how the title didnt go through first time...
Thanks for the heads up!

[Q] How to change notification vibrate pattern?

I want to change the notification vibrate pattern so its not so long. I'm not talking about using a 3rd party app to change an sms vibrate pattern. I am looking for a way to change this at the base of the rom so any notification, whether it be for email or other apps like wordfeud, it will be my custom pattern. So if anyone knows what file I need to edit I would really appreciate it!

can anyone please help me out with this? i tried looking thru the rom but couldn't really find which file i'm looking for...
does anyone know if it takes editing an xml? or maybe build.prop? or framework-res? i have chompsms custom vibrate pattern to what i want it to be but i would like my regular notifications (wordfeud, google voice, gmail, facebook, etc) to be the same as my chompsms custom vibrate pattern but without using a 3rd party app because those are usually limited to phone calls and sms notifications.
Not sure where this can be set in the ROM itself, but I do know you can use Tasker to vibrate any pattern you want whenever you have a new notification (along with other things). Not as clean a solution as being able to change the default vibrate pattern (and Tasker is a paid app), but if you can't find anything else, could be a solution...
try sms popup, it isnt anything like chomp or handcent simply because all it is notfication and a really simple popup window. you can set the vibrate pattern, change the blink rate of the LED and change the icon. its really nice and i think youll find it great. there isnt a different inbox like chomp. its free in the market
Check out "led me know".
It does a lot of what you've mentioned on a "per app" basis.
