What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install StatusNotifier 2.11 
2. Turn on some sound notifications in the system Settings app

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expect sound notification, but they don't happen.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

StatusNotifier 2.11, iPhone 3.0.1

Please provide any additional information below.

The property in the prefs file that is changed when you enable a sound
reminder in the system Settings app is not the same on the StatusNotifier
is reading. 

Here's a workaround: Go to
User:Library:Preferences:com.otyo.StatusNotifier.plist copy the file to
your Mac. Edit the file with Mac's Property List Editor or any text editor
such as BB Edit or Text Wrangler. For each notification, you will see two
entries: "enableReminderXXX" and "reminderXXX" where XXX is a notification
such as Call, SMS, etc. Change the enableReminder XXX setting to Yes (or
true) for those you want on. (These are the properties that StatusNotifier
is reading.) You can ignore the reminderXXX properties since even though
these are the ones being set in the system Settings app, they are ignored
by StatusNotifier 2.11. 

While you’re in the prefs file, you can set the precise numberOfReminders
and reminderInterval that you desire (much easier than the sliders in
Settings). If you want to turn sound on or off, you can still do this in
the Settings app and your chosen reminders will be unaffected.

Copy the plist file back to your phone and don’t forget to ReSpring after
making the changes. You should be good to go.

Hey,

you are great! Works!
How did you find that out? Is there something similar like ktrace for the iPhone?

thanks!

No tool. Once I found that the prefs are being set in the Settings app, it just
dawned on me to look for look for a prefs file and see what was going on with it.
When I saw that there were two entries for each reminder type, the light bulb went on.
