Red twinkling power button while power is less then 20%.

[Aquila]

, everyone! Finally I've got my axim x30 312Mhz :)
I'm in love with DELL company as it proved. :approve: I have had HP 3850, 3870, FSC Loox 600, HP 2215 before. And now I amazed about DELL's price/quality relation. I won't ever buy overpriced devices from HP, FSC or Toshiba. That's my point.
I also think that this site and community is most helpful and good-natured among other.
And one questions please. How can I turn out this red blinking twinkling power button while device's power is less then 20%? :rolling:

Thanks in advance.

Damn i have the same question. i hate the light. I would understand if it did it till u click ok but even after pressing it still there. well i hope someone has an answer and if not hope dell fix this.
my toshiba had it at 24% but after pressing ok the would stop blinking. and other MSG at 9% and after i press ok it stop blinking. while watching a movie it really suck.

there is a program that can fix that but thats 3 dollar..

but they say that you can fix it in the reg. (thats that program doing....)

so if somebody knows :)

could also be easy if wifi would auto shut of at XX %..

Yes, you're right. I would also want to change wi-fi cessation if power is less than 25% to another value.

Could you please give me the link to this program? or maybe its name at least?

Ah.. no. You've just changed the sound used for reminders to the use the "LowBat" sound....

Good try though!

but you can choose flash light...
and display message ...

but that would than also be for appointments i think :(

so this should do the real trick:

How to create a Low Battery Warning event in your Sound & Notifications Settings

This is the only way is to turn off the warning if you want. To do that you can go and change your registry key in this way:

Look for:


HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A87
7D663-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}

And create a String Key

Default="Low Battery Warning"

Then do a soft reset.

Doing this change you will have a new notification option in your Settings\Sound and notifications called Low Battery Warning.

tweak2k2 does the same thing, yes it stoped blinking ,only after 15 min. blinking was back :(

also at the notifications in registry you see 2 wifi notifications...

Thank you, although I did this registry changes I have no ability to stop this flashing. If I check on "flash light for" in "Low Battery Warning" in Sounds and Notification options then power button flashes by green and red colors by turns. If I check off this notification then power button flashes by red light as before registry changes were made. :rolling:

yeah, I think its a DELL thing...

so dont think it can be fixed with the reg hacks :(


and why am I the only one (well maybe 6) who thinks that flashing is really annoying!!! , you can use is prob. still 45 min after the blinking starts...

Yah man we should write a email to Dell. Please if any one is reading this can u just help for does of us the find this annoying with an email to dell. thank you.

I have tried everything to stop that light from flashing..but to no avail. Does Dell know about this "bug"

Also, when my Axim disconnects from active sync, I get a nice ring telling me so, but not when it connects to active sync...and yes, I have set my options in the sounds and notifications tab...probably another minor bug.

It's not a bug it's a feature. It might "bug" you but MS built it that way.

Tweaks2k2.NET does allow you to change when it blinks. Just be sure you have the latest non-lite version.

[Don't Panic!]

When you go to Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications click on the Notifications tab. The first thing you'll see is Activesync: Begin sync. Make sure the play sound box is checked and a sound will play.
