I just want to add some more info I found out regarding this alarm/notification settings. Apparently there is a bug in this function. It's just ironic that MS screwd up one of the native functions for a PDA.
Anywyas, I am not sure if this applies to all the PDAs running wm5 but pretty sure most x51v have this problem since I"ve tested it on 3 different units.
Under setting --> "sounds & notifications" and highlight the "Reminders".
Now you'll see 4 sections: "play sound", "repeat", "display message on screen" and "flash light for"
For the "Play sound", it will play whatever sound file you choose.
For the "Display message on screen", no matter you check it or not, it will always display the notification msg. At least there is no way to disable that through the setting.
For the "Repeat", obviously the alert will sound continiously with a long interval. So far this is working as it should. But if you have both "Repeat" and "LED flash" checked, when the alarm goes off, the LED won't be flashing any more. Basically If you want the LED to flash, you have to disable the "Repeat" function.
Hope this will solve some of your's puzzle. If your alarm is not working then read my 1st post.
