View Full Version : Appointment alerts on powered-off 2215 cause system freeze.

I've been having a problem with my iPAQ 2215 and appointment alerts. If my unit is off when an alert is triggered, it turns on to display the alert. Many times, however, the alert dialog freezes the system, requiring a soft reset. After reset, the alert dialog displays properly. Please note that this kind of error occurred on a fresh-from-the-box unit.

Anyone else seen this?

Are you using Spb Pocket Plus?

Why, yes...yes I am!

Something to do with repeating alarms, perhaps?

Try removing it and see what happens...

I'll give it a try, but I think the problem existed before I installed Pocket Plus.

What are you getting at, BTW?

Thanks, guys. I've disabled repeating alarms. Hope that will stabilize things.

Actually, I've heard that, for now, you have to uninstall Pocket Plus completely. :cry:

It happens to my h2215 too, but I've never installed Pocket Plus... Headscratcher, huh? :?
