REPEAT in grayed out in sound & notifications ? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

how to turned on "REPEAT" in sound & notifications ?
the box is grayed out (no accessible)
thanks

repeat is greyed out on mine too,
notice your signiture says your French living in Belgium,
I thought bad luck always comes in threes? :lol:
sorry only a joke, could not resist.

I believe its the continuation of what is a very annoying deficiency in the WM operation system. I had an xda 1, xda 2 and xda 2s, all without repeating, audible notifications. I really can't understand why MS have not fixed this by now... :x
Anyhow, Pocketmax PhoneAlarm (www.pocketmax.net) will fix this and give you profiles also. It worked great on my xda 2s, but has to be upgraded for WM2005. The developer promises a release in early December to support WM2005... Until then, you just have to check the phone regularly..
Regards
Chris

just started trying phone alarm, and as well as given the repeat function, in the profiles you can set a program to start when only power is plugged in without activesync.
eg when i plug the k-jam into the car lead tomtom automaticaly starts>

No sound on device

Hello,
Suddenly, I have lost all sound on my qtek 2020.
The system volume slider is on the lowest position and when I put it back on top, it goes back down.
Also when I try to play a ringtone a message appears saying: "The ringtone is not working properly".
I cannot hear the ring for incoming calls, or any other system sounds.
Can anyone help on this issue?
Thanks a lot
is the radiobutton in the slider dialog set to off ?
is it set to vibrate ?
how are the settings in sounds and notifications
did you try a softreset ?

If you have the Widcom stack go to the WIDCOM BT-manager Audio gateway tab and Disable this before uninstalling. Sound should then remain actve. Had the same problem
Very easy and simple fix!!, i had the same problem about a month ago and it took 3 weeks for me to find the solution,
click on start, then ultra profiler and untick the silent box and tick the normal one, select bluetooth as you want it, but make sure all the others are blank, tap the select button and its fixed !!
It seems that ultra profiler gets confused and forces the volume down from time to time for some unknown reason without you ever using it

I have not installed Ultra Profiler...
I yesterday made a hard reset of my device and installed it from scratch... Now it's working... :wink:
It seems BluetoothGPS is the faulty one, since after uninstalling all sounds are gone...
I followed instructions in this post to remove it but BluetoothGPS still shows in Remove programs section.
i havent installed ultraprofiler either, and i didnt want it because of this problem, but i comes preinstalled with the XDA2,
Maybe it isnt preinstalled on the Qtec version ??, not sure as i havent got one
just install bluetoothgps.cab again and all will be ok, i dont know the reson and appreciate if some one give a real solution.

Speed It Up

How can I somehow speed up my XDA? I miss so many phone calls, because it has to "boot up" when someone calls and by that time it's 3 rings in, so by the time I get it out of my pocket and am able to answer by pushing the "Answer" button several times, I'm lucky to get it. I had the XDA IIs, and it was fine. Yet this is just a joke.
Any apps out there available or advice?
Thanks
just curious.... I had a similar problem. I recently unassinged unique ring tones from contacts. and made sure to copy the ring I wanted to use into the main memory(i.e. not on sd card) and this seems to have fixed the issue for me. I have even reassigned the unique ring tones.
Mike
You can adjust the ringing time :-
1) Go to the Phone app
2) Go to the Menu and select Options
2) Go to the Services tab
3) Highlight "Call Forwarding" then click "Get Settings..."
4) Adjust the time in the "Forward after:" box to 30 seconds
I now get six audible rings with old_phone
simply upgrade to the latest radio stack, seems to have fixed alot of peoples universal with the same problem, including my own universal
mine always rings on the second ring and havent upgraded.
but i have changed the forward to 30 seconds by calling my operator and having it changed, 1 month later, I found the manual change capability.
i would be looking to configurations and settings on the individual devices and see what is actually running and going on, cause it aint the phone.
Test this File-perhaps it speed up your Telephone.
The Turbo-Modus on my Universal speed up the Telephone too !

O2 EXEC, slow to respond to incoming calls

HI all
Hoeping some one can help me,,, If my xda exec is switched on and an incoming call comes in it starts ringing stright away as you would expect. However if the xda exec is in standby mode, it takes 3 or 4 rings before the xda wakes up and starting to make the ring tone sound. Is this a "design feature" or is there somthing i can do to resolve it, As most people seem to hang up after 6 rings and my xda only rings after 4 I am missing lots of calls.
Hope you can help
Paul
You can try and install the Radio Upgrade 1.06.00. It doesnt require a hard reset (loss of all data), and appears to fix up that problem from everyone who has tried it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=38954
You can alter the duration the phone will ring for before it goes to voice mail or divert (depending on how your set-up is arranged) Go to Settings/ Phone, select the "Services" tab, highlight Call Forwarding, then press get settings, the phone will retrieve the data, in the midle of the screen is "Forward after" and a drop down box set this to "30 Seconds" - you might find it rings for longer now as the default is 10 seconds I think - Mike
Thanks for your replys, I have already put the 1.06 radio upgrade onto the device..
I will change the voicemail pickup time that should help thanks
I have found that if i turn of the power management settings so that the device does not go to sleep after 3 minutes then this problem is fixed, Calls come though to the xda within 1 ring,,, However I dont know if this is going to cause the battery to drain to quick, as the screen is on still (although backlight goes out)
isnt there a registry hack for this?

Curious, how many of you are running skype? Try this

This is just something I stumbled across a while ago but haven't had the time to post it. I'm not making any promises so this is just a head's up.
If anyone remembers my last post on skype here, you'll recall me saying that there's a Disable Codecs key in the registry. Well I didn't know the codecs but SkypeSmart over at Skype forums posted this tweak for his iPaq and it works a treat.
I'm running my Mini S with the original ROM and skype with my key reading: ILBC G729 EG711U
As a result it only uses the EG711A codec and guess what, it works, at stock speed too. My phone is an utter mess but it works at an acceptable level that is to say both parties can hear the conversation without any hiccups. Tested over a WiFi link but be warned you'll lose connectivity with echo123 and it also seems to me that Skype Linux doesn't have the EG711A or EG711U or even the G729 codecs so you won't be able to chat with them unless you enable ILBC.
One thing worth testing is to see what happens in a conference call (with a Windows machine as host and a Linux machine and the wizard with some of the codecs disabled) but I don't have the time to test so be my guest and post the results if you do test it.
By the way, I use Skype v2 Feb 14 release. If anyone wants to post their overclocked results or anything, great.
Indeed it does work and VERY well. I just called across a very sketchy broadband connection and audio in BOTH ways was clear. Before, I could be heard by the other party but could not hear them in return. Once I overclocked, I could actually have a couple of pragrams running in the background and still have acceptable resources left. Bravo to whoever came up with this tweak.
How far did you overclock? Also, I know a lot of people are viewing this thread but only one response so far...does that mean the rest of you are enjoying Skype? :shock:
i use skype with my wizard very well and i can use skypeout as well.
i installed for the high cpu usage, not low cpu usage. but i also use omapoverclock.
what i did, just installed skype, then change the content of d shortcut using total commander in windows/start menu/programs/skype.lnk with this one:
46#"\program files\omapclock.exe" -clock 240 -launch "\Program Files\Skype for Pocket PC\Skype.exe" -restore?Program Files\Skype for Pocket PC\Skype.exe,
in this case, i put omapclock file in 'program files' folder, and don't forget to use "," sign in the last content of skype. because it gives u back d skype icon, otherwise u'll see omapclock icon.
Gut luck!!! and i hope this can be useful 4 u...

i remember trying this on my wizard...i placed a call to a land phone and i could not hear the other phone ring or anything.. but t did call..
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks Ricky, that trick with Omapoverclock works a treat. By the way not sure if it is my imagination but sounds like the I am getting the call playing through my handsfree speaker and not the ear piece. Does anyone else get this or am I going mad????

You're not. Apparently the M600 is the only phone which might support non-speakerphone chat on skype. I heard that its latest ROM does exactly what you want it do. I don't know if its a Skype specific issue or whether it's ROM specific but I have not seen any apps other than the phone app itself take advantage of the earpiece.
@guyver2077:
If you're referring to the tweak I listed, what does it do when you call PCs? I made a skype out call actually 3 of them and I could hear all of them clearly - 1 to Guam , 2 to HK and I'm in the UK.
@Ricky:
Does 240MHz eat away at the battery life, especially with WiFi on?
I just spent the last few days setting up a Linksys NSLU2 with DebianSlug and it works great; Samba works with the phone too 8). A little tempted to get a bluetooth dongle to stick to the slug so that I can connect to the net over bluetooth when possible but the BT stack on the mobile doesn't support BT networking does it?
ok.. so does this only work with speakerphone on?? i didnt hear anything through the actual phone ear reciever

When I said speakerphone I meant simply that the sound is coming out at the same volume as media player, etc if that makes sense. There's no reason for you not to be able to hear a thing though. :?
Thanks AsGF2MX, It works great with the headfones I just don't normally use them.

If you think about it, it makes sense. This is Skype for Pocket PC, most Pocket PCs don't have the phone built in.
Do you have a BT headset? If so open the audio gateway (either using the program posted in this forum or via Voice Command press BT button and just say "Open Skype", the Audio gate will stay open).
This should allow you to use your BT headset for Skype calls.

I suppose you're right, that would explain things but is there an option to actually channel audio to the ear piece? If not, then it's definitely an issue with the way the device ROMs are designed (assuming that there is a way for software to utilize the ear piece).
Well, I'm glad a few people found it useful and I hope it's working for the rest of you as well. I might just pick-up OMAP clock a little later and try to see how well an overclock fares on my device but first, I'm going to try a few apps I've been wanting to try for a while.
Great tip!
I have previously tried Skype on my Qtek 9100 but have always found the audio quality quite bad, even when overclocking to 240.
After changing the DisableCodecs as suggested here, the audio quality is now really good, also when using SkypeOut to a Fixednet phone.
Thanks for the tip!
Yes Great tip, thanks
Can someone point me in the direction of the program that opens the audio gateway?
I don't have MS Voice Command, I only have the default "Voice Speed Dial".
EDIT: FOUND IT!!!
Therez two actually. one is btAudio, and the other is VjVolubilis
After Skype Install - Alarm clock chaos
Hi
I have been reading this thread with interest. I own an old XDA (one with aerial) and now the XDA Mini S. Have had it now for about 6 months and sync up to 2 pc's, have multiple email accounts, use the Wifi/msn - so use pretty much all of functionality. Happy so far!
I installed the pocket pc version of Skype last night - and found that this morning my alarm went off - but with no options displayed on the screen to snooze/dismiss alarm! Consequently - the alarm/vibrate goes off every 5 minutes - and only thing i can do is remove the battery -so phone basically unusable. Soft reset does not help - and would rather not hard reset as then will have to redo email settings etc.
Anyone out there had this problem before? Your help would be appreciated (think you are calling the XDA mini a wizard)
OS Build: 5.1.70 (14406.1.1.1)
ROM: 1.5.4.2 WWE
ROM date: 11/8/05
Radio: 01.09.10
Protocol: 4.0.13.20
ExtROM: 1.5.4.103
Have you removed the Skype software already?
After Skype Install - Alarm clock chaos
Hi - Yes, I have removed Skype from the XDA Mini. Soft-reset again - no difference.
I had that alarm problem once.
I'd had my cingular 8125 (HTC wizard) for a week or two and had been putting apps on it and messing with the registry, then one morning my alarm went off, I reached over to silence it, pushed some random button accidentally, and the alarm kept on going. I opened my eyes and sat there for a minute waiting for my brain to boot up because I wasn't seeing the notice showing me which softkey to press. After awhile, I realized that I was completely awake, and there really was no way to turn the alarm off!
I messed around with that thing forever. Scrolling through menus, doing soft resets, etc. Nothing would silence the alarm. I tried reseting the time/date and doing a soft reset, but every time the device booted up, it would go nuts with alarm tones (they kept multiplying! Every time I would reset the time after having set it back, another alarm would go off and they started piling up!).
Boy, that really ruined my morning.
I ended up having to do a hard reset to fix the problem. And when I ran my latest backup, the problem came right back! So I had to do another hard reset and roll back to an earlier backup.
I really don't know what the problem was, but I think I might have a slight idea. I had downloaded some program called CheckNotifications by Scarybear software (I now know it's not meant for WM5) and I think I must have deleted that alarm notification from the "notification database". (No, I don't actually know what any of that means, I'm just regurgitating words I read online in a manner which seems to make a little sense). So some parte of the OS somewhere remembered the alarm, and turned it on at the right time, but the part of the OS responsible for giving you the facility to turn it off was screwed. But that's just a wild guess.
Maybe you also have some issue with your notification database.
Good luck! Of course, if you were anywhere near as annoyed as I was, you probably already said a few (dozen) choice curse words and did a hard reset.
(edit: clarified phone)

My Trinity stopped ringing

In between testing Karmba and Schaps ROMs on my Trinity I realized that it was not ringing any more. Income calls get through, I can see the pop un in the screen but no audible ring. Music and every other audible notification is working fine.Last night I flashed back to Karmba a7.2 elias, and it started ringing, but this morning problem was there again. Any idea? Will be that soft or hard problem?
No ring
I have the same problem. I cannot get my phone to ring. I what WM6.1 and when you try and change the ring, it will revert back to "Ring-WindowsMob" and you can not exit the screen by hitting the "OK" button or the "OK" on the screen. Any help would be great.
Scott
I just have the same problem after a couple of moths using Faman 4.0 with no mayor issues, it stopped ringing, all other sounds or music are ok.
I had the same problem, because tha wma file format was associated to another player and not to the standard player...
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-pmclean-v1-06.html
The Notification bug in Windows Mobile 2003 / WM 5.0 that causes slowdowns and alarm problems, i have resolved my problem with pmclean .
See also in main menu "Tools > Automatic Start"
sorry for my bad english,i'm italian people
Happened on my Xperia
I lost the incoming rings and the ability to change ringtone when I associated wma files with mortplayer.
I unchecked it in mortplayers settings and now everything is fine again.
Thanks speederi.
guys, it might be a 3rd party software that causes the issue. Did you guys install any other softwares that relates to audio before the problem occurs?
Like myself, i installed SRS WOW (and might did something wrong to it) - sounds were ok but after i turn off the device and wake it up, sounds are gone - actually it still plays, but very2 soft and you can hardly hear (even if i set the vol on max).
Doing an uninstall doesn't help at all. Luckily i had backup (using SPB) before installation, so i just restore back those data and got everything working back as normal.
Maybe more info would help for the rest to troubleshoots?
