Just recently I detected that I do not receive any calendar notifications any more, which is really annoying. Device wakes up but no sound at all. Browsed some threads on this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1035667#post1035667) but only advise I found is to hard reset - which I do not want. I checked the registry instead and found some questioning entrys.

Could anybody USING PHONEALARM (www.pocketmax.net) on a Prophet or any other WM5 device please post some of his registry entries here?

- HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\Reminders

- HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications

Many thanks

I have no problem with these software. Did you have the last version already?

To me either pocket clock or PHONEALARM caused the same problem.

I went back to a sprite back-up point from before installing both applications. Then my reminders and alarms worked again.

I have not tried to reinstall either of them.

Could you help me posting your registry values please? Once I found a solution without hard resetting I will post it here, seems that many have this problem. And I feel it is connected to PhoneAlarm

The registry values?
I didn't manipulate the registry, I just put the user name and introduce the serial number.

Yes I did the same. And after more than two months I ran into the mentioned problem. And now I want to manipulate the registry but need to compare the mentioned values with mine. There is nothing critical about registry values and your would pretty much help me providing your info.

hase01 - here you go...

BTW, I had the exact same thing happen to me with my Magician, and had to hard-reset to get notifications back. I've only just been game enough to load pA on my newish Prophet and so far it is working OK. I am running pA Lite v.1.56.1 (Build 80).

PeterW,
many thanks. Unfortunatly it looks the same on my phrophet - but without getting notified. I am using pA 1.31 - no idea whether this will generate other registry entries than pA lite 1.56.1. On my my WM2003 device with pA 1.31 installed the registry looks different, in reminders I have:
* Default = "Erinnerungen"
* Duration = 10
* Options = 1073741855
* Wave = "Alarm4"

Anybody else having these entries in a WM5 registry?

Regards Hase01

Have found a solution using alarmToday, also a pocketmax product. Look my post on their support page:

No need for a hard reset!!!!! Hope this helps other users, for me phoneAlarm is one of the best tools I have on my PPC and to deinstall it would be of great disadvantage.

I used Freeware Task Manager from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280104 to fix this. Run it, go to notifications tab, select "delete duplicate" and reboot. All working nicely now.
