notification bubble

Hello All,

first off, I am really enjoying this ROM - it is packed full of items, I really dont have to to install any program as they are all included in the ROM which is great should I need to hard reset :o)

I was wondering though, is anyone experiencing an issue with the notifications bubble for appointments?

I for some reason, am not getting a notifcation bubble pop up for meeting - it seem to be working for task, but not appointments.

Device: 6700
ROM: BigJ 1.1r
Carrier: Telus Mobility (Canada)
Storage: 2Gig Scandisk (no programs installed on it)
Programs installed to device after ROM Flash:
- SPB Mobile Shell (1.0)
- SPB Backup (1.6.1)
- SPB Phone Suite (1.1)

Thanks.

Please read the first post. It lists a reg edit you must perform to make the vibrate work again.

Love your release but occasionally I would get system lockups or sometimes my storagecard would disappear. So for the hell of it, I decide to try a Colonels release and build one without all the bells and whistles that you have in yours. As it turns out, it was quite stable no problems at all. Then I decided to install the colorful battery status that you have above your start screen. "VistaHide Battery Gauge.exe" (you have this on your ROM) I then again noticed the random lockups and storagecard started disappearing.
You may want to take a look at this..

I think you are on to something here. As per the previous page of this thread and my post... Add to the soft-reset/lockup upon initial bootup this problem with my storage card also disappearing requiring two soft resets to get back up and running.

? - What is the best way for us to remove this app completely since not in Add/Remove as its integrated within this rom? Going to look into atleast removing it from startup now for further testing.

Thanks

You can just stop it from starting by deleting it from your windows\startup folder, The shortcut is called battv, then soft reset.

However, I'm not conviced that is the real problem, as I've been using it forever, and have never had any sorage cards disappearing or strange lockups, and I'm even running PhoneAlarm as an OEM, and it all works fine... Maybe I'm just lucky. who really knows.

I have also experienced a lot of lock-ups or freezes especially when trying to answer a ringing call. I don't use any custom ring-tone or anything but I do have a company-specific push-mail system installed. I noticed that this seemed to occur more often since I started using the BigJ ROMs - but I still loved them.

I removed the startup for the battv three days ago and have not had a single lockup since. Don't know if that is really the cause - I thought more likely it was the push-mail system, but I'll go a few more days to see if it holds. If not, then I'll disable the push-mail to see if that is it.

I am on Verizon and use a 2gb Sandisk SD card. I don't really have any other programs loaded and I always disabled the handyswitcher too.

WeatherPanel icons

Does anyone have the DEFAULT (non-animated) icon set for WeatherPanel? It's not available for download on their site. I'm assuming BigJ removed them to save space.
