Menu Problem - General Questions and Answers

I have a Sprint Mogul phone with Windows Mobile 6.1 running.
Hopefully others have had this problem and I just didn't use the right terms in my searches to find the solution.
This started when I clicked on 'live search' in my Start Menu (under Today) - nothing happens. So I went to Settings > Menus and brought up the long list to see what was checked to show up in the today list. I have 2 'live search' items in the list and the first one is checked. I tried unchecking it and a pop-up tells me "cannot move that item". I get the same message when I try checking the 2nd 'live search' item as well.
My guess is the first one is an old version and that's why it doesn't open in the start menu. How do I get that Menu Settings screen cleaned-up?
Thanks!

Anyone know how to clear-up my menu settings problem?

Lost Short Menu

I do not have any more the Short Menu on the right upper corner (X) after I installed and removed another start menu program.
Any suggestions which registry modification would solve the problem?

Do you mean the task manager quick menu?
If so, you can re-enable it by going to Settings>System>Task Manager>Button and re-check the "Enable Quick Menu.." box.

I had this problem too, for no apparent reason eventhogh the settings were untouch
A simply soft re-set will bring back the icon to close "running programs"
A soft-reset didn't work but the quick menu could be brought back by re-checking the box - quite easy

Contact List problem with Touch Cruise

Anyone experience the following problem ?
I tap onto the "Contact" button at the main screen and instead of showing me all my contact numbers, it was all blank. I fired up the HTC Cube and surprisingly, all my phone numbers that are stored under the "Favorite Contact" were all missing! There were no numbers/pictures. I had to do a soft reset and then all my contacts are back again. But I had to manually add all my favourte contacts back in to the Touch Cube again. This happened twice to me.
Another issue is that when i press the "Contact" button at the main screen, usually my contact list will appear and then on the right side it shows the alphabetical order right ? Just like the following :
#
A
B
C
D
E
.
.
.
.
Z
Today, it somehow disappeared. Did i disable it or anything ? Is it possible to disable ?
I noticed that my contacts disappeared whenever I disconnected from the Internet. This was because Windows Live Synch Options were configured to "As Items Arrive" and I also synchronized my contacts directly from Hotmail. After I changed the Sync frequency to "Every 15 minutes" my TC was much faster and contacts stayed in the contact list everytime I was offline. Don't know if this is the problem in your case but hope it helps.
Hmn.. I don't think thats my problem because I don't synchronize my contacts directly from hotmail.
Anyway, thanks for responding still!
Under contacts, go to
Menu > options
The first option is "Show alphabetical index".
Make sure it's UNCHECKED. This should bring the HTC random access back (the grey alphabetical strip).
If it's already unchecked, check it, go back to contacts and then repeat the process, unchecking it this time.
Good luck.
Ok.. that works... but how come it happened it the first place ? I didn't check it. It just disappear.

Genius, fixed it for me, thanks
i have the same problem with the alphabet scroll bar. sometimes when i open contacts from the contacts soft key it appears as a nomal scroll bar i do a soft reset and its back to normal. not sure why it disappears though.
Yeah I've seen the alphabet scroll bar disappear before, haven't noticed a pattern yet. I didn't need to soft reset to get it back though, not 100% sure so don't quote me.
Polaris - Touch Cruse not keeping certain settings.
I have the same issue and the fix work for me also. I lose the A – Z list on the right side when I shut the phone down. I also lose the selected keypad and TomTom from the today screen even though it is selected to be there and the same kind of fix works. I don’t even have to uncheck it and recheck it. I can just go to Start, settings, Today and then Items and see the list but just hit OK and then it’s back. For the keypad I have to select the one I want again. This seems to happen every time I have to power it all the way down.
I had the same issue; now it's fixed... THX!!

I had same problem, checking and unchecking ths Show alphabetical index helped, weird...

[Q] Typoclock

I really like the look of this clock but despite appearing to download successfully onto my HTC Desire running Android 2 it simply refuses to function. After dowload I am asked if I want to install it and I say yes, but when it has finished installing, the 'Open' button is greyed out and I am only left with the 'Done' button which doesn't launch the app. The app doesn't show up on the screen either on the 'All Apps' screen, but it does appear in the list when I go to settings and select 'manage apps'. Any ideas anyone?

Settings Suggestions keeps stopping

When I tap on the "Search settings" field in the Settings dialog, the search screen appears for a split second then disappears, bringing me back to the Settings dialog, and if I tap in the "Search settings" field again a popup appears saying:
"Settings Suggestions keeps stopping" https://19216801.onl/ https://routerlogin.uno/
and gives me the option to see "App info" or "Close app". Neither of these fixes the problem.
I've tried clearing the cache of the Settings Suggestions app, and tried restarting my phone, but neither helped.
This is on a Sony Xperia 5 IV phone running Android 13.

Question [Fixed (I think)] How Do I Get Rid of the Gmail "Tap to set up" That's On My Home Screen?

So I turned my Pixel on and the Home screen shows a brown box with the words "Tap to setup" and a Gmail icon. I don't know what I did to get that. I checked my settings but did not find a way to get rid of it. How can I do it?
In trying to resolve my problem I opened Apps, tapped Gmail, and found "Open", "Disable", and "Force stop".
When I tapped "Disable" I got a warning that Android and other functions may no longer function as intended, so I tapped "Cancel" and backed out of that option.
Next, I tapped "Force stop" and got a warning that the app may misbehave, so I tapped "Cancel".
Then I tried "Passwords & accounts", tapped my google account address, but all that had was a "Remove account" button so I backed out of that.
If I long-tap the message on my Home screen, a "Remove" button appears at the top of my screen but if I tap that, nothing happens and the message remains on the Home screen.
So I fiddled with the message box, swiping it to the right/left/up/down and finally, after 3 or 4 swipes to the right, the message disappeared. When I turn the phone off and back on again, the message does not reappear, so I think that the problem is resolved.
I think.....
Only other think I could think would be remove and re-add the account, but hopefully it is fixed.
maybe try to clear your launcher app data.
Just as a matter of curiosity, how does one clear one's launcher app data?

Hi,
Go in Settings > Apps > and look for the launcher app.
Force stop it and go in "Storage & cache"
Click: Clear storage > done.
You may click on the 3 dot menu on you upper right corner and tap on "Show system" if your launcher is installed as a system app...
Good luck,
Sébastien.
Okay, I followed your instructions.
After I tapped "Clear storage", I tapped the center arrow on the bottom of the screen to get back to my Home screen. My 4 shortcuts (that were at the top of the screen) were no longer there, and the bottom row of apps "bounced" up and down every 2 seconds for around 10 seconds and then stopped bouncing. This happened each time I went back to the Home screen.
After a few minutes of fiddling around with the cellphone, the bouncing stopped when I went back to the Home screen and so far it has not returned.
Why did the bottom row of apps bounce up and down?
