Change value for CustomUIDLL from NotificationLayout.dll to NotificationLayoutXX.dll

When you do this you'll notice that when an alarm goes off, you'll now get a Windows generated notice box instead of the TouchFlo generated box. Not quite as pretty, but it's a pretty good tradeoff. You should now be able to select the time to snooze using the menu on the lower right.
Have you already done this on your TP2? Are there any other side effects that you have noticed since doing it?

Yes. A couple days ago. Other than the standard Windows dialog box instead of TouchFlo, nothing.

Also, it's easy enough to reverse . ..just rename the .dll in the registry key to it's proper name by removing the letters you added at the end.

Thanks for the tip. Do you recommend that I do a soft reset after making his change?
