Haunted by message sent bubble - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I have looked and can't seem to find the right solution. Obviously it is well known the small issue with the "SMS/MMS Message Sent" Bubble. I edited the registry so it would go away. About a month later it came back after a restart. I went back and changed the registry but this time it didn't go away. I found the .cab fix and installed it and it worked fine. However, once I restart it returns and is unaffected by registry edits for some crazy reason. The only thing that works is the .cab fix but it returns once I have to restart. Is there any reason it would ignore the registry edits and continue to come back?

This is TP2 with Stock WM6.5

sometimes reg edits don't stick after a soft reset. Try changing the registry, exiting out of the reg editor app and then power off the device (hold down power button) instead of soft reset. then boot it back up.
Also you could try to install advanced config and set it to not show the message sent notification from that app and see if it does a better job

No luck, the registry is set so both the HTC and verizon bubbles don't show up but I still get it, not both just the bubble one whichever one that is. Makes no sense.

Tried advanced config. Was already set to all notifications disabled. Not sure what else I can do

sms notify bye bye

Just use the main forum search and look for "advanced config"
...which will lead you to THIS thread

Thanks for the link - it was late last night - sorry for being lazy

No prob, we all do the same sometimes, and I figured that might be the case, so I went ahead and put the link in too Let us know if it works for you!

I too want to disable the "SMS Sent" bubble.
But when I ran adv config, it said that that feature was already disabled, so I guess I will try turning it "ON", then off and see if that works - and report back.

Well that doesn't help me...idk why my phone feels like ignoring the advanced config and the registry...can anyone help. Cab doesn't fix it, reg edit doesn't work, and advanced config doesn't

Is there more then one cab file made for this? I never had this issue with 6.1

Anybody know the answer? This is driving me nuts

I don't know which ROM you are running, but try setting the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSNoSentMsg=2. That has worked for me in the past with the stock verizon 6.1 and 6.5 ROMs.

Wow looks like it worked. Why that works I have no idea. I am running Stock 6.5. Thanks a lot! Hopefully it doesn't come back again

+1 for the change value to 2! Thanks! I did it on my TP2 with 6.1 on it and since going to stock VZW 6.5 it was driving me nuts! Couldnt remember how to get rid of it again

Registry tweaks specific to WM6

I did a bunch of the reg tweaks while WM5 was loaded, and it all worked fine. Now Im finding several of them not working correctly, or values not being where I expected them to be. Are there any updated wikis or similar for the common registry tweaks for WM6?
Thanks guys!

why dont you post your tweaks your trying to use that way we can tell you if they are still relevant or not...
disable sms sent text and disable 3g startup animation are the two most annoying I can think of right now. I ran them thru registry yesterday but didnt seem to work. Thanks
Disable SMS Message Sent
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\SMSNoSentMsg=1
Disbale Startup Animation
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation\Enabled=0
Work just fine for me.
odd, I just did it AGAIN and yet it must not be saving as I did soft reset and animation still went off. When I pull up in Total Comm it doesnt save the settings.. any ideas?
Just did a power cycle and seems to have held. Weird.
Ok but are there any new reg tweaks specific to WM6 in general? thanks guys
There is any registry tweak to get Windows Live messenger connect through Wi-fi instead trying to find GPRS or 3G connection?
That will be nice .
My sms message stored in simcard show in inbox (not shown in wm5) . i feel that the speed of opening the inbox is quite slow and may be caused by reading sim sms. Is it possible to hide sim sms just like hiding sim contact?
Many Thanks!!
what are the settings to make ALL your outlook mail as well as all your POP3 mail go to a Storage Card. not just the attachments, but the whole message.
thanks alot.

Forgive me for my innocence, how can i perform a power cycle?
It's just that i want my font to be in the cleartype in the landscape view permanently. It keeps going back to the original non clear type font everytime i turn my phone off or soft reset. I keep on editing HKLM/System/GDI/CleartypeSetting/OffRotation/from 1 to 0

Ditto - which I don't normally clutter up the forum with; however, I want to stress: it did require a POWER cycle to get it to stick.
After that, works on WM6 just like it did on WM5

Uninstalling MS Voice Command

Does anyone know how to uninstall this? When i try to do it on the phone or over Activesync I get a warning message that it could not remove all of the program and ultimately the entire program is still installed. It takes up too much room for what it does (and I think there's a battery issue with it as well) Thanks

Try using the Uninstall application of this program: http://www.dinarsoft.com/memmaid/ Once the program is uninstalled, just delete the remaining folders and then run the Quick Clean and that should remove all remnants of the Uninstalled program.
Thanks. It helped to remove mobitv and xmradio which were entirely useless to me and took up a lot of room. However, when I tried to uninstall memmaid it left a few bits behind - there are folders remaining in the program directory... in fact the MobiTv icon still exists in my program directory leading me to beleive that it's just deleting a folder and not removing the program from my reigstry, etc. It's a start though. Thanks again
Re: uninstall
This may be a silly question, but was VC cooked into the rom originally or did you install it yourself? If it was cooked in you will not be able to remove it. (As is true for any cooked in application.)
Best wishes,

Quick question; when using MemMaid, did you use the Quick Clean with all items checked? by default not all are checked.
Dead shortcuts
Dead Registry
Bad uninstall (files)
Bad Uninstall (Registry)
These are just a few items I would make sure are checked..
Thanks for the help guys. It was not part of a cooked rom and after checking the boxes on memmaid and rebooting a few times VC is gone (and 5 megs are free). After uninstalling memmaid (it's 900k - I can't keep that around ) it just left an empty folder called "Handyswitch actions" that I'm just going to manually delete. Thanks for the help. I was this close to deciding between keeping Skyfire and outlook

Sorry, during install of MemMaid you could of unchecked the handyswitcher and whatever extras you didn't need and they wouldn't have installed. Glad to see you has some success though.

You can't install MS VC to storage card and have it work correctly unfortunatly.
I've had same issue whilst installing MSVC to storage card and had tp install it to phone. I also had same problem trying to uninstall it. Luckily I wanted to upgrad my ROM which solved the problem
As I've been using my phone I learned there's a new glitch - if I use autocomplete to fill in text or complete an email address, etc it crashes my phone (I think pasting text does too). This didn't happen a day ago so I think there's a connection to the uninstallation of VC. I've reset it 5 times and it's always the same result. The screen becomes nonresponsive, switching to landscape mode takes about 45 seconds and doesn't solve anything and both the onscreen keyboard (Happy Tapping) and the hard keyboard fail to function. If I wait it out I can get the start menu to drop down and get to the Today screen but navigation is still brutally slow there and the email sits. I Use o2plus and it shows apps are running but doesn't state them (it's pOutlook that is frozen). Any ideas? I wish PPC had 'last good state' like Windows... thanks again
I have VC on my memory card and have no problem... Dont know why you have though.

TP2 showing phantom notication SMS inbox

Just started last night, my TP2 is showing 1 sms notification on TouchFlo3D and on the inbox folder. I have used Clear "Text/Multimedia" a billion times and also checked in another phone to make sure nothing is hiding on the SIM. Does anyone make a suggestion other than doing a master clear/reset phone?
Funny, I just solved this problem today and unfortunately, I had to do a hard reset (still backed up everything with with Sprie Backup thou.)
Well, you do have another option that didn't seem to work for me but it's worth a try, is to Regedit it. The location is HKEY_Current_User\system\state\Messages\sms\Unread and set the Count=0
When I tried, it would work, but as soon as I was to get another message, it jump back up to "2".
Good luck, Hope it works so you don't have to Hard Reset.
I will try, thanks for the tip
or this
find a program called fixedthreadcount and you just have to do a soft reset after running it.

Hello,
I attempted to post earlier but it did not seem to work, so go to this link it should fix your problems:
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/samsung-i700/23911-1-unread-sms-count.html
Simply download the zip file, copy the exe file to your SD card, run it, and do a soft reset. Hope this helps...
Ok, so forget the link, simply download the attached file.
awesome, thanks a million for the prog. i tried the regedit 1st with no permanent fix, but the prog fixed it.
it worked. 2nd time i had this problem, first time i had to do a hard reset. thanks for the program!
Just had the same issue with my phone wouldnt delete a phantom message and the program worked great, thanks ARHMogul, appreciate it bruh
Man, I am just having no luck with this - mine is showing "2" unread - I have deleted all msgs - done a reg edit to "0" and I have done the fixunreadcount with a soft reset. What else can I try ??
@jurgy1, I just ran the attached exe and a soft reset but the unread bubble was still there. Ran the exe again and it disappeared.
@ARHMogul, thanks a ton! I'd hate doing a hard reset for such a small problem yet I'm sure I would've done just that if not for your help.
TY! worked for me......... even after doing a soft reset I "thought" it wasn't going to work, but I also had to click on the icon to get the 1 to go away.
fixunreadcount.exe worked like a champ. Ran the program, soft reset, opened the sms inbox and the (1) count was gone. Returned to the TouchFlo home page and touched the SMS bubble and the offending number vanished. Nice. Many thanks.
Just wanted to say thank you. I've search on xda and ppcgeeks for a bit now and didn't find this post until today. Sometimes the wording really matters when finding threads.
This solved my problem and I thank you. Little things like that bug me and I didn't want to have to hard reset the phone.
Thanks again, I'll be saving this little guy.
Verison TP2 and Resetting the SMS Icon to 0 - Forever
Has anyone tried this on Verizon TP2 and if so, does this program work good enough so when you get the next message, it doesn't re-appear. Mine started when I got a two part message from an T-Mobile customer that spread it over two messages. I read the first one, but the second one had already disappeared so it says 1. I reg hacked the counter back to zero, then the next message (even if it is not multimessage) goes back to 1 of course, but does not reset after reading it. It will go up to 2 and 3 and so on but after reading it, it never goes back to 0 without me going to a PMedit and resetting the counter to 0. The question is, does this fix count stop this from happening in the future, or just solve the problem now. If it just solves the problem now, I can PMedit it each time as easily. If it solves the problem forever, I am eternally greatful. Any thoughts? BTW, this only started happening when I got the multi message and it hasn't gone away since.
Thanks.. Rick
Thank you so much. This worked for me. I didn't want to hard reset. Anyone know what causes this?
Just a reminder - after you run the program and perform the reset you have to OPEN THE INBOX for it to "refresh". I was dismayed to notice it was still there after the reset, but after opening the inbox it cleared right out. I noticed this was a problem before on my original tilt, and am glad to finally have a solution!!

YOU ARE DA MAN!!! I called HTC and the lady told me the only way was to do a hard reset. I told her if i was about to do a hard reset because of their crappy software, then I should at least get a new damn phone out of it....
Thank you so much! Great work!
Excellent piece of software
fixunreadcount.exe works exactly as described in this thread. Thanks very much indeed.
fixunreadcount.zip is the best thing I've found!!! I tried to solve it whole weekend on my Touch Pro 2, but only this app works correctly. Editing registry was useless and other tools too. Thanks a lot for that small useful app

Titanium Weather

Hi Everyone,
Just a quick question on restoring titanium weather to my home screen.
I went through the trouble of finding my code etc when i set it up, but then i accidentally hit yes for the "do not display summary page" in the setup options. (This is NFSFAN's latest 6.5 ROM on a Bell HTC TOuch)
Now, I am unable to get it back. What is the easiest way of getting this working agin?
Any help is greatly appreciated
QUick addition
I also should have added that I looked at the Titanium registry key for summary and it was set to disabled. I set this to enabled, but still no luck.
+1 on this issue. I have the same problem!
I think I figured it out!
You have to go into your windows folder. Scroll down to Titanium Weather. Once you get there open up titaniumweatheroptions.mscr and reset everything to enabled (even if they are already set to enabled). Then go back to the windows folder and double click on titaniumweather.exe and it will run! It now shows up in it own panel and in CAnalog Clock for me. Just to be sure I wasnt kidding myself, I turned off Titanium and moved CTitaniumWeather up and down the list to be sure it is there!
Let me know if it works for you or if you have any Q's.
EDIT: I have actually had a ton of issues with things just disappearing from the Home Screen, after a few more issues with the weather and other panels, I just reflashed my phone.
You're Brilliant Gersonian
Your advice worked like a charm. I kept on playing with the registry entries and never even thought to look in the Windows folder. Really glad I didn't have to resort to reflashing again

Unread text message notification will not go away.

I was enjoying my new Touch Pro 2 from T-Mobile for over a month now and suddenly I noticed that Touch Flo 3D said I had a "new text message". I usually just check "all messages" so that I can see all text message "discussions" instead of one at a time or "read only" mode when you tap a contact and slide over to "sms". So this time I checked "all messages" and none of my messages were "unread". I even went through every conversation to make sure nothing was missing, not even an mms message.
I even turned off Touch Flo 3D thinking that was causing the issue, no dice. Everytime I go into the SMS app for Windows Mobile and look at the folder tree, I see "inbox (1)". So I downloaded a cab file from xda that allows "mark all as read" in the sms app. After installing/softresetting and choosing "mark all as read" from within the WinMo SMS app, this issue did not go away both in Touch Flo 3D and in the WinMo SMS app.
Finally I came across a link of someone having an issue with their HTC Hermes (Kaiser?). They made a program called "FixUnreadCount". This app shows that it is checking all mailboxes (including sms/mms) on the WinMo message app and determines which messages are actually "read" or not.
Once I got to the "sms" portion of the scan, it found that all messages had been read, but the notification was set to "1". It fixed this and moved on to check my other messages on the phone.
After the scan finished, I noticed that TF3D still thought I had an unread message so I softreset my Touch Pro 2 and that was it. Touch Flo 3D had synchronized with the WinMo messaging app and determined that there were no "unread" messages.
I felt I would post this up here since I know there are a lot of Touch Pro 2 owners out there and none of the other fixes worked for me. I also hope that this can be found easily in a search because finding the fix in the hermes forum was almost dumb luck.
I posted a link to the thread that has the file available for download. It's a zip file. I just downloaded the file via Opera directly onto my storage card, then extracted the file and ran the file after extracting. You may get a warning that says "unknown publisher" just tap allow and it should run just fine.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1519862
Thank you, I've hard reset twice already because of this annoyance.
Thank you. Ran it once and after a soft-reset, all was fixed.
This fix worked for me to.
Much appreciated!
Thank you for the post!
Glad I could help. I know this was an issue that wasn't covered too well when I first learned about it. Making it easy for others.
Just use SafeInboxExtender
Once installed, go to your inbox (windows default, not TF3D), click menu, scroll down and click 'mark all as read'
That should do the trick, and its easy too.
i have been having this issue with my phone for months thanks so much for posting this, yur a life saver... really!!!!!!!!
Thanks for this soo much. I was about to flash my phone again cause I had this problem the first month I got my TP2 and looked online a lil' and could not find an answer... dat is why I luv this forum
I had this same issue and stupidly started a new thread without a thorough search (sorry).
Any ideas why it happened in the first place?
Well, I installed the SafeInboxExtender and clicked on Mark All As Read and the phone still says that I have one unread message. It didn't work for me. Any other ideas, guys?

So did you try FixUnreadCount followed by a soft reset, as in the first post?
Can someone please help me! I have downloaded this zip many times and it works for a few days then the phantom message appears again somedays totaling to like 5 new text so it says. Is there anything I can do to keep them away for good? I love my phone but this is driving me crazy!!!
NeoDMD
Thank you! Awesome fix. I've had this problem with several WinMo phones from time to time, usually after receiving several automated texts, and always had to hard reset the phone to fix the problem, which in this case, with the Tilt2, would have been a major hassle getting it just the way I like it again.
I changed my settings to the default UI and then ran the exe file, then switched back to TouchFlo 3D, but the count was still wrong, so I performed the soft reboot like you suggested and again, it was still there, so I just ran the zip file again and it was gone with out another reboot.
Thanks again.
=)
works great thx a bunch

Unread text in message fix
and easy fix for this Is safe inbox extender it gives you the option to mark all messages as read something the original option fails to do so download it and no more hard resets
Laters
thank god it freakin worked! ive had to deal with this for months now!
the first time i ran it, it said it had taken out the message on the scan so i exited the scan and did a soft reset, and it didnt work. so then i ran the scan again and this time did the reset before exiting the scan, and that worked like a charm. so if your havin issues with it try that. thank you again so much for that, im glad someone finally figured this issue out

go to tools, then file explorer and find the file, select it then press the menu button, one of your selections should say "extract" (select it), then youll get a screen askin where you want to save it, just to make it easier on yourself save it to your storage card, once this is done go through your program files again and you should see 2 files with "fixunreadcount" (one is the folder logo which you just extracted from, the other is a little window logo thing which is the actual file), select the file with the window thing and it will then run the scan, after that press the reset button on the side of your phone. if it doesnt work the first time (it didnt for me), run the scan again and reset again and it should work
