OK, here's the thing - my Calendar button on TF3D home screen has stopped working. I don't know when exactly because I wasn't really using it - I'm running Second Today with Today agenda.
However, I wanted to get rid of it (Second Today) just to see if the TF3D was really as useless as I thought it was.
The Call history and the Alarms&Clocks buttons work well, the Calendar is the only one that doesn't. Soft reset doesn't help...
Plus, I'm not able to put the Calendar shortcut to the Start menu.
I copy it to the correct folder in File Explorer (Windows\Start Menu).
Everything seems fine in FE but it never actually shows on the Start Menu.
Can anybody help me out here?
Nevermind, I found the cause of the problem - it's actually the Background4AllTabs application that's causing it.

have you found the solution except deleting Background4AllTabs?
I installed the Palm Messaging App found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=385603 on a Symbol MC70 running WM5. Every time I warm boot the device, the program messagingapp.exe is started and brought to the foreground. Anyone know how to disable this? I would like to be able to reboot the device and have it come up to the Today screen. Thanks.
i would look for a shortcut to it in \windows\startup
and delete it
The only thing that was installed to the \Windows\Startup folder with this app was "Phone Service.lnk". I tried removing that and it didn't work. I also tried checking the registry but nothing stood out to me as causing this issue.
I've been having a problem since shortly after I got my Fuze, that sometimes on reset it doesn't want to finish starting up -- maybe on one out of three resets. It seems to hang just before starting TF3D. It's still semi-responsive ... the backlight brightness turns back up if I hit a button, and an on-screen button may react if I press it (though it doesn't get as far as launching the application or bringing up the start menu)
Usually forcing another soft reset via the pinhole button results in it booting just fine.
I'm currently using ROMeOS, but I've run into this problem with multiple ROMs, including the stock one. I don't think it's a hardware issue ... I haven't had any other problems that suggest the unit itself is bad.
I tried to figure out what I've done each time I've customized my setup. I stayed away from registry tweaks that affect things like caches or hardware performance this time, and still got the issue. I tried uninstalling some of the apps that I always use. No dice.
But I think I've narrowed down the issue. I uninstalled mun background4allpages, which puts the wallpaper you select onto every tab. After several resets, no problem. I'll continue to test throughout the day, resetting sporadically. But I haven't seen anyone else report a problem like this with background4allpages ... so I'm not sure this is it.
Anyone have anything like this, with any cause at all?
I have his problem every once in awhile with ROMeOS too. I'm not sure what causes it but I'll have to do three or four restarts before it continues on. I think it usually happens after I install an app that has a Today plugin with it. But I'm not totally sure about that but I do know if is after I install a cab.
Looks like a today screen hangup. I can fix it by going to the Today Items tab in settings->today then choosing ok (which causes today to refresh plugins).
imtribble -- I've never needed to do 3-4 resets to clear it. I'm not sure I've even needed to do 2. But I know in my case, it's happened without any cab installed since the last boot.
Sleuth255 -- I'd actually tried that (though not for that purpose) but it doesn't seem to have helped, at least not permanently.
With background4alltabs uninstalled, it seems like the problem is gone (at least so far). I wonder if it might actually be the collision of using both background4alltabs and manilla customizer to change my clock -- since I read somewhere that the files background4alltabs changes also affect the clock. If I can confirm after several more resets that this was the problem, I'll post something in that thread.
I'm just so confused that it only happens sometimes, not all the time. Odd.
Actually, Sleuth255, that may have helped after all. I reinstalled background5allpages, and the problem reappeared. But then I did the Today "OK" and haven't been able to make it freeze since ... so maybe. Will report back further after more testing.
It is not just on ROMeOS though, with my fuze the same thing happens and I am running elite ROM RC2. It is some kind of today screen hangup and sleuth's solution did not help me. It takes ~2-3 soft resets to get it working correctly. If I hold the power button to reset rather than pressing the stylus reset it boots up with no hangs though. Interesting.
mdow09 -- are you using background4allpapers? how about manila customizer (and if so, what have you used it to change)? anything loading in your startup group? trying to figure out what the common elements among people having this problem might be.
its happened to me on provens rom and when i had romeos
but a second reset always fixes it
Not using background4allpapers or manila customizer, the clsoest thing I am using to that is TF3D config. My senses tell me it is something to do with my secondtoday screen. My startups are as follows:
Answer key disabler
autoshortcut.ink
cleartemp.ink
filedlgchgs.ink
G-alarm reload
HTC startup
PKG.ink
poutlook.ink
startclean.ink
hmmm.... I've not gotten a permanent fix either, I occasionally hang up after a reset. When I have my issue, the start menu is operational and I can load programs etc w/o issues. It's only the today screen that's hung which is why I tried fixing it by refreshing the items list in today settings. I'm not running touchflo either if that makes a diff.
mdow09 -- It looks like the only things in common we're running are the processes that are always there. Nothing from an installed app.
Sleuth -- How long does the today/ok seem to fix it for? Do you do something in between that could be re-triggering the problem? I've done 6-7 resets since I reinstalled background4allpapes. I got a freeze on the first. I tried the today/ok and it hasn't frozen since. Been running various apps and doing various tasks in between the resets.
I -MAY- have solved this, or at least worked around it.
Previously, I tried uninstalling Background4allpages. That seemed to solve it, but I only had it uninstalled for a day or so. No conclusive word on whether it was involved.
I tried Sleuth's Today/OK trick. That seemed to stave it off for a while. Still came back. Possibly after installing new apps or doing other things that affect the Today setup. Not sure.
But here's my most recent attempt -- I moved TouchFlo3d (almost) all the way to the top in the list of Today items, with everything else (as normal) unchecked. You can't go all the way to the top, because the date entry is there. My working theory (based on nothing concrete yet) is that the plugins are loaded in the order in which they appear in that list, and the Today function isn't getting to load one that's problematic. Perhaps it's a similar issue - when the problem appears, Touchflo itself won't load because of another plugin that loads first, but each would be fine independently. In any case, pushing it to the top priority seems to be preventing the problem -- at least for now.
Obvious holes in my theory -- It seems strange that Today would still load unchecked plug-ins at all, though maybe it still does some sort of cursory scan of them. And wouldn't the problematic plugin still then load AFTER touchflo in my new setup? Maybe it is, but it's only causing a problem if it loads before TF3D?
As before, will report back after more observation ...

Its intermittent for sure. I've not been able to peg down what causes it yet.
This is certainly a pretty basic issue but I can't find help for it.
ATT HTC FUZE unmodded aside from a couple app's added like torch light and battery monitor.
BACKGROUND:
TouchFlo is okay for basic browsing of texts but when I do most of my navigation by clicking ALL MESSAGES for the threaded "all at once" glance.
PROBLEM:
Often when I delete messages/threads from in the normal WinMo All At Once view it doesn't remove them from the TouchFlo screen. This has resulted (over time) in a massive backlog of messages in my Touchflo that can't be killed by conveniently dragging over a ton of threads and deleting all at once. It has started to cause serious lag and now I've got "phantom unread messages" that are deleted from the WinMo interface but are still stuck in TouchFlo limbo
I could clean it out by clicking MENU > DELETE > YES 2000 times but there has to be a better way.
Suggestions?
Alright I think I figured it out...
Go into Messages.
MENU > TOOLS > CLEAR MESSAGES
I kept screwing with other settings and whatnot.. its' right there.
Just posting this in case someone else has the same issue.
My HD2 is behaving very weird..! When I received an SMS, there is no notification tone. Had tried to restart the device, the notification tone comes back, but for some reason, there is no notification tone again after a while...? Does anyone knows the reason? Help! Thanks~!
I have had this on a few occasions, & most recently 2 days ago. I dont know what the problem is but a soft reset seems to do the trick. It does bug me though!
start> settings> sounds and notification> notifications tab> set dropdown list to message: new sms, and check the settings there.
I got the same problem and I did what you say, but it even doesnt work.
try searching Google. or a hard reset
Same prob with my phoneAlarm pro, for a few days it wouldnt play a damn thing
and if you click the setting will only play the default sound not ur sound
its working now but i dont know why
same problem... make hard reset but it is not working.
what is the solution???
Same problem here. Went to settings changed the sound for new sms even made softreset but when ever I receive a new sms I have no notification.
I had the problem with notification sounds when I changed my manila language from default (via registry) to other. Going back to default language brought back the tones.
Have you been messing with the language (using registry) recently...?
I have had the same problem with my Atrix. It seems a virus attached to one of my yahoo emails and fried the sd card. Try removing the card and reformating it on your computer. If that does not work then the only way to fix it is a hard reset to factory settings.
Hard reset
I have same problem - hard reset and then OK
