did any of you guys and gals XDA II, MDA II, Qtek 2020 and i-mate Pocket PC owners noticed that after few days of use of your device it becomes slow in showing the caller's names even though it is stored in the contcats list. If so here is the fix.
The Pocket PC 2003 OS appears to have a bug that can slow down the performance of a Pocket PC device, and can potentially cause ActiveSync delays. It has been identified that after every soft-reset of your device, a few extra "Notification Events" are added to the Notification Event Database on your system (This database holds system notifications such as alarms, timed events, etc.). After several soft-resets, a device can have several hundreds of extra notification events that can reduce the performance of a device
The offending notifications are labeled "SSTimeChange" and "conmgr.exe". Since the developers of these great tools did a lot of soft-resetting when they develop their software, and they discovered one of their 2003 devices to have over 600 notification events (when it should only have 50!).
The two applications below which was developed by scarybearsoftware will allow you to examine your system for these "extra" notification events, and will allow you to clear them from your system. they provide both utilities for free, for general public use.
Version 1.4 of Notification Checker will also remove the "IA_Caller_ID.exe" events from the Notification Event Database that seem to be duplicated on the Pocket PC phone-based devices. Only those events associated with the "RunAppAfterRestore" event status will be removed.
This application will display all the notification events in the system's database and will give you a total count of events. You will have an option to clear out all the "SSTimeChange", "conmgr.exe", and "IA_Caller_ID.exe" events from your database and get a new count, or create a log file of all the events.

Notification Clear Fix
This application will install in your "/Windows/startup" folder, and will be executed after every soft-reset of your device. This will ensure that the offending events described previously will not be present in your system's notification event database. This is the best way to clear out these events automatically.
