4.04 Stock: Unable to Dismiss Reminders - HTC One X

Hi,
It's weird that no one still hasn't posted this.
After upgrading to stock 4.04 ROM, it is impossible to dismiss an all-day event from the Lock Screen. Snooze works fine.
You draw the 'Dismiss' button towards the lock ring, you see some animation then, as though the reminder is going to be dismissed, and then you see that the reminder just won't go from the lock screen. It keeps reappearing no matter how many times you "dismiss" it.
So far, I only experienced this with event reminders from People Calendar (birthdays and anniversaries), but I'm pretty sure it can be reproduced on all types of all-day events.
Also, two notable things:
1. After you unlock the display and dismiss the event right from within the calendar app, you see the notification bubble at the bottoms of the screen saying "The event may be deleted". WTH?
2. No matter if reminder settings for People Calendar are set to "none", when you create or even change an existing contact, then the reminder for the corresponding event will be set to "12 hours".
Anyone?
PS: On 4.03 stock ROM, everything was perfect.
PPS: I even factory reset the phone and this didn't help either.

Guys! Shame on you
Even Football confirmed that the issue does exist.
Pity there is no reaction or feedback from the community.

It's a feature, not a fault.
It's always been the case that 'all day' events in the calendar will display on the lock screen 'all' day.
Personally, I find it handy, and make use of the fact it stays there on the lock screen all day.

I'm afraid you are mistaken.
The reminder "pops up" on the lock screen 12 hours before the actual event starts.
Also, it wasn't the case on the 4.0.3. stock. Everything just worked as expected.

Yep, same here, the reminders are always to early for 12 hours and i'm unable to dismiss them.

Same here.
Anyone sent email to HTC?

Tilt 2 wakes up with every text -- I don't want that!

One thing I really liked about my T2 out of the box was the fact that receiving a text message did NOT wake up the phone.
All of the sudden, it is waking up with every text. I checked to make sure that somehow DisableSMSWakeupEvent hadn't been changed to '0', but it is still set to '1'. Did a soft reset, rechecked the registry value (it's still set to '1')but the phone continues to wake up with every text. I also checked in event notifications to make sure I hadn't inadvertently checked the 'Display message on screen' box.
I had installed Advanced Configuration Tool a few days ago, but uninstalled it the next day after only checking out the options and didn't change anything with it. My only other recently installed software is SPB Time, but it's been in place for more than two weeks so I don't think that's doing it. And I'm *still* using the stock AT&T rom.
What gives? I don't want my phone to wake up when I receive a text!
I only fixed this when I used advance config to tell it to wake up on text, softreset, don't wake up on text, soft reset, and then it finally worked how I wanted it.
try deleting the string and then recreating the dword string. and then soft resetting.
i dont understand why you dont like your pro2 to wake up when the SMS comes in, how will you know a message has arrived????
this is a must feature of a phone,each person who are involved in thw world's business will require.
Hope you are not a spooky person,

It will still vibrate, beep etc, just not turn on the screen until you press the button.
Mine is doing the same. I agree with the OP
Why?
Because my phone lives in my pocket, and when I'm seeing patients or have my hand somewhere you probably don't wanna know about, I can't check every text as it comes in. If the screen turns on in my pocket, then I begin pocket dialing or other bad things. And THAT'S why I con't want my phone to light up when I get a text.
Besides, I have the LED set to flash with new message notification, as well as to vibe so I'll know I just got a text.
The good news is that after the problem has suddenly disappeared just as suddenly as it appeared. Guess I must have bowed down properly to the phone gods in my sleep last night...
You could try using S2U2...
That way you won't start 'pocket dialing'.

I do want my Tilt to wake up with every text and it isn't. I am new to this, can you tell me how to make this change?

Calander Notifications

So i am using the go widgets calander, was previously using jorte on my mytouch4g. i am used to being able to setup a default notification time for any appointment i put in my calanader (ex: 15 minutes.) However i noticed i didnt get any notification today for 3 things. upon further review you only get notifications if you go and set them manually for each event when added. i searched all around the phone for a spot to adjust this so i can go back to normal of just throwing a quick start time for my appointments and go. no luck. anyone else having this issue? anyone got any advice?

I've been wondering why Samsung didn't put this option in also. I miss notifications sometimes and then I realize I never set a reminder to go off. That's the one thing I miss about htc's calendar. Just have to program myself to remember to add the reminder.

I love my GNex, but here's my two minor annoyances

I'm loving my Galaxy Nexus. Stock 4.0.2, not even rooted!
I was hoping XDA could help with a few minor ICS problems I'm experiencing:
1. What's with the Phone Application theme not matching the People app?
2. How do I activate the screen when I receive SMS or have an Calendar appointment reminder? I love (!!) the Notification LED and with Light Flow but sometimes it can be annoying not seeing the real pop up on the screen. (I'm using a 4 digit pin code, if that helps).
3. How do I stop the unlock button hanging up on an incoming call? I find this happens A LOT to me and really annoys me off. I don't know if this is expected behaviour but the unlock bottom silences the ring tone and blacks he screen. Pressing it again to bring on the screen, and the call is gone.
PS. Google. Please hurry up with the high resolution GMail Contacts =)

1.) This is just how it was designed. You'll have to install a theme in order for the people app to match the phone app (i.e. black + ics blue color).
2.) Not sure about calendar popups, but you can install SMSPopup and it will integrate with the internal messaging app to show a Popup whenever you receive a text message.
3.) Could you be more specific?
Okay so, you can pretty much fix all of this with rooting.
#1 you can install a custom theme, like said above.
#2 You can choose what happens when you get a notification. Any notification, mind you. Not just SMS.
#3 With my AOKP ROM I have the option to choose what the lock button does during a call.
Hopefully this helped.

1. They do match - halo dark and halo light. Go look up android development if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
The rest has being solved by replies before me.
#3. Not sure if this helps, but I have had this happen when I had tasker set up wrong. If you're running tasker, look at all your profiles relating to calls or phone idle.

1. They are meant to be separate apps, hence they have different Holo themes.
2. I've always looked at this as a feature, but oh well, do what the other say and install an app.
3. This happened on my Nexus S, but I haven't noticed it on the Galaxy Nexus yet, locking and unlocking usually works.

1. Thanks. I didn't realize this was as designed.
2. I used to like it, but because it's my work/daily phone I need to be immediately . I just want it as it is right now, but a popup for SMS and Calendar reminders.
3. Thanks, I've tried the settings suggested in this thread and will everyone know.
For high res contact pics, edit the contact on your gnex and attach a new pic. Works fine and looks beautiful. I find that cropping the pic at the top of the head to just below the shoulder looks the best.

Dismissing calendar even at lock screen launches calendar?

Is there any way to disable the dismissing of an event from launching the calendar? It seems like it doesn't happen 100% of the time, so maybe I am swiping to dismiss it in an odd way. But most of the time when I open my cover and there is the red 'X' to dismiss the event or snooze and I dismiss, it unlocks and launches the calendar. It's kind of annoying.
Does anyone else even see this? It is still bothering me. Sometimes it dismisses the event without launching the calendar but most times it is launched. I have tried swiping the 'X' different ways and it doesn't seem to change anything.
Just tapping the X should work. Which ROM, or are you stock? I haven't seen this issue, after having used a couple different Sense ROMs.

home screen reminder notifications

Has anyone been able how to figure out how to do this yet?
I can't figure it out for the life of me.
The "Dinner with Layla in 30 mins" home screen notification
Someone posted how and when it appears.
It only appears if you have a calendar event WITH a reminder. It has to be in the Google Calendar app natively, if you have calendars synced to it from other services, those don't work. And the reminder has to have a notification. I think it said if you have a 30 minute reminder it will show up 30 minutes before that, so an hour before the actual appointment.

I just tested this again, small correction to my original post.
It shows up exactly on your appointment reminder.
So appointment at 10am with reminder 30 minutes before, home screen will show it at 9:30am.

This works for me as described, however how to remove it.. I have pressed it and it opens the calendar, where I am given the option to delete it, I need to keep things on the calendar for the IRS but somehow swipe or have a "done" option on my Pixel 2. Searching the internet brought me to this feed, maybe someone knows?
