View Full Version : Multiple alert issue following upgrade (1.60.00 to 1.72.00)

I am on O2 user and have just upgraded from 1.60.00 to 1.72.00.

Since upgrading I find that when I receive single alerts in the start bar rather than getting the correct symbol (e.g. a message symbol if I get a text or a phone symbol for a missed call) I get the multiple alert speech bubble symbol instead. What actually happens is at the point the event happens the correct symbol appears and then it merges with the O2 symbol and becomes the speach bubble symbol. Any ideas how I can sort this? If I have to I'm happy to lose the O2 symbol all together as I can see that I need it!

It's only a small issue but it's becoming increasingly annoying and I would be very grateful if someone could suggest a fix.

Many thanks


David

go to the following folder on you PPC

"\Windows\Mobile Solutions\O2ActiveUI\Modules\Connections" and rename the connections.exe file (anythinig will do).

Then soft reset.

Thanks for the help.

I don't actually have a 'Mobile Solutions' folder in Windows. I did find "Windows\V2R\O2ActiveUI" In that I renamed O2ActiveUI and sure enough when I reset it the O2 branding had disappeared :)

However, I now get a warning message when the phone boots up complaining of the missing file. Can I stop it trying to load the O2 UI altogether?

First go back into file explorer and rename the file how it was before, then go to Start>Settings>System>Remove Programs and remove the O2Active software from there. You won't loose any phone/SMS/MMS functionality from the XDA by doing this, and as a bonus when you soft reset the device in the future you won't have to wait ages for the O2 software to load up. Hope this helps
