such a great app and no feedbacks yet?? °_° very weird...
btw, this proggy is really attractive, especially the power-saving feature which avoid battery-consuming ping on notifications queue... wow great!!
there's only one thing left that is preventing me from trying this app, nad elect it as my favourite one: why can't I set a different sound for each different event?? should be easy (Ithink) to implement....?
apart from this point, wow you're great!!! if it's really so unique thanks to the ping and battery-saving option, you're the man!! I'll worship you forever!!
cheers
Different sounds is planned in the future. I've been busy with other apps, but will get back to this soon.
Basically, i'll have a sound for each event, plus another sound if more than one event is active at a time.
Thank you, testing could please have reminder time out in minutes
I am assuming by "time out" you mean that you want it to cease notifying you after a while? If so, that is planned in the future. Thanks for trying it out!
That's the one
Just to say works a treat, was using BestReminder on SP but for some reason never worked properly on PPC for me "thought it may be m2d related but gave up".
Look forward to future releases & thankyou

I found one problem and this will only effect Kaiser users, to be able to use the camera to the best of abilities we have to 1. launch camera 2. Sleep. 3. wait 5 secs 4. power otherwise we have a very slow fps to which the camera is blury in low light situations.
Last night tryed for first time to use camera since install software and found on boot the screen would flicker producing light and not allowing the tweak mentioned so went through the whole hard-reset and installed everything one by one "usually use SASHIMI" anyway cut a long story short with your prog it does above, then soon as removed fine even without a soft-reset, not sure if this is due to it being a service or?
Just thought i'd let you know as really like the software just a bit of a mission to uninstall everytime i want to use camera in low light, i know it will be hard to solve this especially as not going to effect othe users as device specific.
I will continue to use and will have to work out a way of quick removal, unless you have a better idea.

That's a very peculiar conflict. To be honest, I have no idea how ReRemind would affect that. All it does it create some callbacks for registry changes and a notification event (like dozens of other built-in apps/services do) and wait for a change. It's 100% idle due to WM blocking the thread while it waits for the event. And the callbacks don't execute until the OS directly calls them.
I don't doubt it's causing the problem, I just can't understand why or how it would. Good luck figuring it out.
You might want to try using the shortcuts included with the app to start and stop the service (in the program files folder) since uninstalling and reinstalling is a pain.
Maybe you can create a script (using like MortScript or something) that you use to stop ReRemind, launch the camera, then when the camera quits, start ReRemind.
Thanks for getting back to me and morts a very good idea that slipped my mind, will have to ask some other users regards mort
Hadn't thought about just disabling lolThanks again for great app like u said, it's peculiar.
If wasn't for HTC neglecting "not sure correct word to use?" Kaiser users wouldn't be an issue.
Update: Got it tweaked by Bupahs
Needs Mort Script installed to work:
The .mscr relies on ReRemind being installed to Device Memory
The Camera folder goes in \Program Files
The Camera App.dll goes in Windows "Provides the shortcut with Icon"
The Camera App.lnk wherever wanted in Windows\Program Files
I mapped the shortcut to HButton then Mapped to AEButton for Camera "Could just use Settings\Buttons"
Have attached files for other Kaiser users.

Ok, I've found the answer on
http://reremind.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=25699
It's mentioned regarding V3 and not V4 ...
BTW, in my case, the initial installation did not configure the startup process as silent. So I had to create a link, edit this link on my desktop and copy it to the startup folder of my PPC. I'd suggest a separate "silent" EXE or configuration possibility through the config tool "Autostart [With message box|Silent|No]".

The normal behavior of the app is to NOT notify you while the device is on and you are using it. You can override this behavior by checking this option. When checked, it will chime at every interval, whether your device is on or off.
This is a work-around for those who are using older devices where the sound driver does not work in unattended mode (the low-power state that audio chimes normally occur at when the device is off -- like ActiveSync new email sound). What this workaround does is power the device to the highest power state (awake) before playing the sound. This is the behavior that Reminders and Alarms use. Only use this if you don't hear sounds or feel vibrations with this feature off as it will eat battery a bit quicker.
great apps!
it work on Omnia I900 + W.M. 6.5 rom (ITA London Naked by stefano92_100)
but it need a 'silent startup' .... we waiting for update

It's notifying you on startup? Are you using V4? The installer should put a link with the silentwait option. It should read,
57#"\Program Files\ReRemind\StartReRemindSvc.exe" silentwait
Args are...
silentwait - waits ten seconds and silently starts service
silent - silently starts service immediately

1Although I do read every post here in this thread, it would make my life easier if people submitted bugs and requested features on CodePlex and saved this thread more for general discussion and peer-to-peer help. Thank you!

Overview
ReRemind is a simple Windows Mobile service that will play a sound at a specified interval when an event is waiting your attention. This is particularly useful for devices that lack standard amber/green notification LEDs (like the Diamond / Touch Pro), but can be used with any WM device if you want audible notifications.

Current features
- ReRemind will notify you when reminders (calendar) are active, there are missed calls, new voicemails, unread SMS, unread MMS, and/or unread email.
- You can be reminded at any interval you specify, in minutes.
- Rereminders can be turned off during a time span (such as overnight).
- Play any WAV file! But sound must be less than about 10 seconds long, or it may be cut off as the device moves from UNATTENDED power state back to SUSPENDED power state.
- Optionally vibrate device in addition to playing a sound.
- Specify that ReRemind stops reminding after a certain number of rereminders.
- AppToDate support
- Very power efficient. All checks are done using the State and Notification Broker and Named Events in the notification queue. Playback is done (by default) in unattended mode. The service does not periodically "ping" because it waits for events, so it's completely idle as long as the state of the monitored events are not changing.
- Cleans up after itself! Don't you hate it when apps use the notificaton queue but leave stale notification events lying around requiring you to run something like MemMaid to clean it up? ReRemind always checks to see if a notification is waiting when it is signalled to exit. If a notification is waiting, it clears it out.
- TRUE SERVICE! Does NOT use one of the precious few 32 process slots on Windows Mobile. The app you see in the StartUp folder is simply to turn on the service. This is due to unsigned services being unable to autostart.
- Can optionally work around the bug in Windows Phone 6.5 noted here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=469186
** If you edit ReRemind's settings in the registry directly, you must restart the service. This is most easily accomplished using the StopReRemindSvc and StartReRemindSvc EXEs in \Program Files\ReRemind
Planned features
- A different WAV for each event
- Maybe custom events by monitoring arbitrary registry locations for changes
Known Issues
- None right now...
History - More details at CodePlex
V7 - Added notification: unread MMS. Config app supports wav and vibration preview. Works around bug in WM6.5 where all-day reminders will not make a sound or vibrate. There are limitations, however: sound file specified in Sounds and Notifications for Reminders MUST be a WAV; AutoSnooze is not supported.
V6.1 - Fixed a bug where VGA devices no longer could see the "select a folder" button.
V6 - Added support for standard devices to use the config app (untested); Fixed a bug where some pre-6.1 devices detected as 6.5 devices, leading to alarm notification problems.
V5 - Startup bug fix, WM 6.5 bug fixes, vibrate support, stop reminding after time (optional), AppToDate support.
V4 - BETA - Fixed SMS/Email notification bugs. Deletes stale notification queue entries on startup/exit for if device crashes. Added 10 second delay to start service on boot.
V3 - BETA - Fixed (very) minor resource leak. Silent service start options.
V2 - ALPHA - Added Unread SMS and Email notifications. Added config app. Added messageboxes for starting/stopping service.
V1 - ALPHA - Initial release

I don't have any plans to work on this project any more. I'm getting close to ending the Windows Mobile chapter of my life (bitter/sweet) and migrate to Android. As such, this is one of the projects I don't plan to continue working on as I ride off into the WM sunset (not enough time).
The source code is open source licensed and is available for download on CodePlex, so if you want to add this modification, have at it!
