Further explanation for the program does not start from program icon

I'll try to explain with some pictures how the program behaves when the no icon in taskbar option is selected or not selected. Just to be sure that it is not the cause for users who are experiencing problems with reopening the program using the program icon:

first situation:

You have installed MissedCallReminder and you start it for the first time, If you change nothing and select Apply the following will now happen:

Menu - no icon in taskbar is NOT selected (noiconintaskbar.jpg)

The program is not visible in any Taskmanager's application list

The MissedCallReminder icon is visible in the taskbar (Iconintaskbarnotselected.jpg)

When this is happening the program will not react to clicks on the program icon in the programs list, it can only be reopened using the taskbar icon.

second situation

You have installed MissedCallReminder and you start it for the first time, you select Menu - no icon in taskbar AND completely exit the application using Menu - Exit. You then restart the program and select Apply and the following will now happen:

Menu - no icon in taskbar is selected (Iconintaskbarselected.jpg)

The program is visible in any Taskmanager's application list (visibleintaskmanager.jpg)

The MissedCallReminder icon is NOT visible in the taskbar

When this is happening the program will react to clicks on the program icon in the programs list.

Request: If users experience this and are certain the above situation is not the case then i would be very interested in what the program registry settings are. if you are able to do this could those users please open a registry editor and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MyMissedCallReminder and tell me the value of the key "minimizetotaskbar"

FootPrint?

What kind of a footprint or memory usage does it require?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
memory usage is currently around 235 kb
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MTM:
Looks neat :)

Throwing in an idea, hope it's ok. It would be good if you could have reminders for only missed calls and not messages (or the other way around for that matter - looks like you will get the same reminders from both on the screenshots).

I'm biking a lot and don't always won't to stop to read a new message, hence reminders can be a bit annoying. On the other hand, I'm wearing my headset so I always pick up calls :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
i am currently working on some "improvements" like having it minimize to the taskbar. i think i will also include the option to turn a reminder on or off for unread SMS or missed call

No Vibrating

No vibrating on ASUS P535!

How do you HTC people cope with the reminder witch turns on the screen. In your pocket, an unwanted touch on the screen could run an application?

The Asus P535 has an HOLD button!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tesselaar:
Too bad the button apply can't be reached with a 240x320 (landscape) display like the one used on the IPAQ 914C
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
when applying the settings you can also specify the LED number to vibrate (default is 1) . please try this. perhaps it will be usefull to have a test option.

regarding the unwanted touch problem, i personally use S2U2, so when the device wakes up i do not have this problem.

what i can do is add an option that the device does not wakeup when a reminder is given. but that does mean that you will not hear any reminder until the device wakes up.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
the next version will hopefully have better support for non portrait display.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sudist:
I've tested on 1 and 10 (seconds I think)

There are programs that still work in SLEEP MODE (for example, autoflight is always telling me the time....even in sleep mode).

*Memory heap size = 1Mb (OsRemindMe = 1,6Mb)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
i think the LED number for vibrate could be any number between 0 - 5, but i do not know for sure, it is 1 on my Touch. i must admit that setting the LED number is not very clear for first time users. I do not know how to make it so that it automatically uses the correct number.

I'm in the impression that you can not hear a sound if the device is in sleep mode. but perhaps i am mistaken? Autoflight generates a sound without waking up the device?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] killer_metallica:
Thanks it's great

Always wanted an app like that for my WM6.1
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davidfvk:
nice piece of work

pretty nice work.. however, it would be good if following things can be revised?

--> can you plz add in a feature "number to repeat". FYI, i'm now using Throttle Launcher. So, i can't trigger off the reminder alarm. it would be good if it stops automatically after x-times (which can be set by user),

OR..

whenever i read/aware the missed call/msg, this reminder program would detect that missed call / unread msg = 0, thus OFF the reminder automatically. (This would be preferable)

Many Thanks....:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davidfvk:
add in some extra information..

regarding above statements, perhaps i shall further clarify....

a) add in "number to repeat"..

example: reminder will give notification every interval of 2mins for 5 times

I'm now using Touch (with Throttle Launcher interface, 240x320), perhaps this reminder program need user to off it manually? yet, it's too bad that i can't trigger this button... so, i suggest 2nd option which stated above....

Thanks...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
if the user dismisses the missed calls and marks the unread sms as read while the program is running ,the program should know when not to give the reminder anymore.

however problems can arise if the program is not running and the user dismisses the missed call/unread sms notifications. the set reminder will then not be cancelled. this should be fixed in the next version. the next version will also have an option to clear generated reminders.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davidfvk:
Hi,

Thanks for your prompt reply. Personally I think this program has great potential. Just wish it could be revised to a better software.

I tried it yesterday. It rings to notify me that i have missed calls / unread msg.. somehow, I went to read the msg and checked the missed call.. yet, the reminder won't stop.. (and i din see any button to be pressed to stop, if there is any? )..

plz advise?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
You have to manually set the correct LED that is used for vibrate. Please change the number and use the menu - Test vibrate.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
Thank you for your reply. i will look into this.

No Vibration on diamond

I have choosen #1 for my Diamond and done the Vibrate Test successfully. However, when I get a Missed Call, only the Tone is heard but no vibration...

I think post #161 from another user who is using Diamond stating is facing the same issue. Maybe anyone who is using Diamond can share with me which LED# you are using? Thanks in advance!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] optiknerv:
having the same issue as touch hd users on my diamond running 6.5 rom in that have to kill the process with task manager before i can open the program to edit. The key you asked is set to "true"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
Thank you for your reply.

True means that the program will minimize to the taskbar. This effectively means that the program can only be reopened using the icon in the taskbar (the icon should be in the lower right corner.) If you cannot see the icon than some other program (perhaps TF3D) is on top of the icon.

You can change this by using Menu - No icon in taskbar . After you have changed this, please close the application and restart it. The program should now reopen if you use the programs shortcut.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ray1234:
I have the same problem on a Samsung Omnia. I am on the right LED#, as it vibrates in the vibration testing, but when the reminder comes there is only sound, no vibration. The vibration works in version 1.2.5.2, so I think it is a bug in version 1.3.

Also, I wonder what's the use of "do not wakeup device" option? I suppose it should be an option to remind with sound/vibration but without turning the screen on. On my Omnia however, there is no sound nor vibration when this option is ticked, just like no reminder, I think this is another bug.....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
As you already suspected, when the "do not wakeup device" option is checked, the program will not wakeup the device to give the reminder.

I have tested this out and the reminder is given without waking up the device. however, there indeed seems to be something wrong with the vibrate function. I'll look into this.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] voided:
Any bug maybe..

Hi,

For me, if i check the "do not wakeup device" checkbox, no reminder will be given. And if I turn on my phone, all the "missed" reminder will all comes all together... :confused:

For example, I set to remind me every 5min and have the "do not wakeup" checkbox checked. When there is a missed call and i left my Diamond in standby mode for around 15min, the phone is completely silent. But the next time i turn on my phone by pressing the "On" button, i get 3 reminder(tone) at one go.... :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
Thank you for the info. If the phone hibernates, it does generate sounds (and when i have fixed this, vibrate), but they are only audible when the device is woken up. However it seems that not all phones have this behaviour. This might well be because of the way i generate sounds, but i really do not know how to do this in a way that it will always work without waking up the device.

If you experience this then i'm afraid you must uncheck the "do not wakeup" option.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
small update regarding no vibrate

I have looked into this a little bit and version 1.3 does not vibrate when the option "General Tone" is used on the Sound tab.

When "Tone per reminder is used", the program does vibrate.

To be continued....

Thanks for the update! Will try that 2morrow. Now it's already 1am here.. don't wanna to wake the whole gang up... :D

Could you please see if the following registry key is present on your device: "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\MMS\Unread"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RdBrd83:
There is no MMS under Messages, but there is a Messages\MMStemp that has an Unread value in it.

Edit: Adding in the MMS\Unread key made it run. I don't have data though, so I don't know if the MMS reminder actually works. But everything else seems to be functional for me for what I need it for. Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
Thank you for the info. in WM 6.0 and 6.1, this key is used by WM to notify that there is a new MMS message. This is only used at startup, so i would think that it will work when the program is active and a new MMS message is recieved. i'll see if i can also make it work with the WM 6.5 key that is supposed to be used.

I've installed the tool today, but i can't re-open it on my Touch HD.

I've tried to run a regedit but i don't know how i must do that on my phone :-) I only have it for 3 days now.

How can i solve the problem so i can re-open the program again?

btw : What is the "Vibrate LED number" function? What does it do?

Does it flashes the led in the on-off button of my Touch HD?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
At first notice i do not see anything strange, could you please describe exactly when the error appears?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
You can use this one: http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/ to check the registry on your pda

The LED number specified in Vibrate LED number" is used to vibrate the device. This is different per device. Using the "Menu - Test vibrate" you can test if the number entered in the vibrate LED number field is the correct one for vibrating the device.

Update on development

Hi all,

just a quick heads up that development is still going forward, but has currently been at a crawl because of personal matters.

Also i currenlty do not have a working PDA phone so testing things out is currently very difficult....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cyberspace217:
temporary solution

I'm using it on a diamond and i have a workaround. In order to get it to run again just soft reset the device and than you have an interval of about 3-4 seconds while tf3d is loading when you can see the icon in the taskbar on the bottom right corner. clicking on it will open missedcallreminder in the background, when tf3d finishes loading you can open in again... :D

I am running it on a wizard and currently on a 21222 build from XDA2, bit low on memory and wondered if some of the missed call setting could be set in registry keeping memory space a bit lighter. the main use for me is to set one sound for all call/sms/mms/email reminders.

Help with Error - trying to remove

Hello,

Trying to remove the program, it works as designed but made me realize that i really don't want a lot of reminders so I un-installed it. Now I get the error "Notification Error - Cannot execute \program files\missedcallreminder1.3\myplayreminder.exe" like every 15 minutes.

Tried re-installing, turning off all the reminders and removing again, no joy.

The biggest reason I wanted to remove it was I was getting email notifications even though i really don't want them, even with the box unchecked. I JUST want the missed call alert.

Thank You

JB

Same here (didn't test with 1.2.5.2). Touch Diamond2.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
This is indeed a bug, i have already corrected this and am hoping i can release a fix soon.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
Please try this:

install the program

Use Menu - Clear Reminders (answer yes)

this should remove the still present reminders
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Stefan Krueger:
I noticed this, too. I'm getting notifications of unread e-mail, but I unchecked the "Missed email reminder" checkbox on the Notifications tab.

BTW minor visual issue: The text for this checkbox is truncated - it's broken into two lines and there are some pixels missing from the bottom of the second line. I think the control should either be higher (to completely display the second line) or wider (so that the text fits on one line).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jbrady33:
From another thread, here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=330872

Since a few days I have the problem that when I get an sms.

It alerts me about 15 mins later with the standard windows beep and directly followed by be beep I set in the program.

so the problem is that when I get an sms and my device is in standby it doenst let me directly know that I got an sms

Any idea what this could be?

This is correct, this is added in version 1.2.5.2. what message (if any) do you get when the latest version crashes?

I have got CurrentUser\System\State\Messages\MMS but there is no key in there called Unread. I did a full search of the registry and couldn't find anything similar, although there is a key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\AuxDisplay\WMMessageNotification\RegNotifyKey2 which has that path as its value, so your not the only one looking for that entry. MMS is set up and working okay on my phone.

I suppose you could just put a try/catch around that bit of code and disable mms notification if the key isn't found. Is the source available anywhere?

Thanks for all your hard work on this program.

First. thanks for this great app! I actually use SPB Phone suite for my call management but I was in search of an app that allowed me to lock my screen (Samsung i760) when in-call to avoid inadvertant screen touches producing unwanted results. Therefore, i turned off all the settings related to notificatin for SMS, call, etc. and am only using this featire. BTW, thanks for keeping in the program!

However, one issue: I have the option set to start with windows and get message on teh screen attached. It works fine if I start it from WM6.1 start menu.

Pls advise. Thanks

Uninstall buggy

On my phone, XDA Orbit II (=HTC Touch Cruise) with Manila Rom, the reminder 1.3 wont work properly.

1. I can only start it once (didn`t check the registry settings,sorry)

2. It reminds me of "something" all 15 minutes, cant see it properly because it seems to interfer with S2U2. All Calls, sms, mms and mails are on status "read" so there shouldnt be a reminder...

3. So I uninstalled it, but after reboot there seems to remain something in the autostart settings, because there comes a failure message "cant load ....reminder...")
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] daipob:
thx. i'll try it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mb286:
Thank you for your input

1) It should work correctly if you check "Menu - No icon in taskbar" after first startup.

2) There is only an audio reminder, there is no visible reminder generated.

3) The program creates an entry in the \Windows\Startup folder. you can delete this file manually. (Missedcallreminder.lnk)
