Hi,
I got struck with one problem in Windows Mobile 5.0 Today Screen Custom Plug-in application.
I created a small sample Custom plug-in which retrives system time and displays on the today screen.
Iam able to make entries in registry success fully , place the .dll file in the path mentioned in registry. Now after re-starting the device i am even able to see my custom plug-in.
Now the actual problem is as i navigate each time to other windows (say File Explorer or any window). and come back to today screen, my custom plug-in is disappearing. When i go back to settings and Today items and click 'OK' each time, i am able to see the custom plugin.
Other examples down loaded from net are working fine but my application is having this issue.
Can any one please help me by suggesting or finding what the actual problem is?
Thanks
NiZE!!!!!!!! lol

I have installed applications around 45 (less than 50 for sure) but after installing the last three - four apps I found that Remove Program list is not showing anything. Immediately I removed the lastly installed four five programs using SK tools but the Remove Programs list is still blank although the programs were successfully removed. Everything is working alright though. I think something has crashed in Registry.
It also happened earlier and I had to hard reset to get it back. But this time I am seeking advices from anybody if there is a way to get back things anyway - probably by a Registry Edit.

this is a bug in windows mobile. we found it on the shadow on tmos stock rom.
there is no fix for it. just gotta use active sync to remove programs or like you used sktools.
OK, so I have to stay with the blank menu only till I hard reset.

I had the same problem after installing a bunch of programs and tools. But I think I found a solution: after removing VoxOC Setup.CAB "remove programs" is working again. I'm not sure that it was VoxOC Setup.CAB but give it a try....
Infact I dont have VoxOC installed in my device. So it might be something else. Anyway, thanks for your suggestion.
I installed the following programs from this thread:
- HTC_Task_Manager_2.1_34837.5.cab
- AudioManager_2.0_1819.1228.cab
- Dr. Gonzo s730 Audio Manager.cab
- Vox_BlackSecondHTCSplashscreen.cab
- Vox_BlackCommManager.cab
- Contact_changer_v1.3.cab
One of them is the villain and caused the remove program menu to appear empty! I would suspect the Second HTC Splashscreen as I had troubles removing the program...
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.
Hello there,
I'm using PPC's since more than three years, but I never experienced such a problem like this! I'll try to reconstruct what happened:
I was coming home with my Diamond Pro in my pockets and playing music over A2DP like I do everyday. I laid switched off my headphones and BT on my Raphael. Then I connected the charging cable because battery was already low. I realized that the Raphael did'nt respond properly and made a SR (via the hole). While booting I did something else waiting for the screen for entering the PIN, but then I had to see that there was a notification like this (on a german Raphael, I just translated it to english):
audiobooster_remain.mscr
The file "audiobooster_remain" couldn't be opened. It is either not signed with a trustable security certificate or one of its components couldn't be found. If the problem keeps existing try to reinstall or restore the file.

I have to add that I have this script (Tip #20 from here) in my autorun folder. There was behind of it the same notification for AEButtons Plus and my other autorun-apps.
But what made me wonder was the following:
The whole screen looked like the green HTC-standard design and then there appeared this screen with introductions and display calibration as we know it from hardresetting.
After that I was stunned and of course I knew that the Extended ROM setup would shortly follow. So i quickly made a SR although the o2 installation hadn't shown up until that. But after rebooting it did show up and let it do his job.
Since that everything looks like the standard o2 design and the named notifications show up after every SR. But what makes all this really weird is not the fact that all this happened automaticly and suddenly, but the fact that the device hasn't really hardresettet (although it seemed so because of the calibration and introduction screen and the standard designs)!
All of my programs are still installed and my modifications on the TF3D (e.g. I had deactivated all tabs but the music tab because I use Mobile Shell) still remained. But strangely enough my programs aren't anymore registered. Well, this alone would'nt be so bad, but the programs don't work like they should: e.g. I can't run the Mobile Shell, GScroll isn't configured anymore (as in initial state) and all the other programs (e.g. Pocket Plus) too. For most of the programs I have to confirm first before I can run the exe (e.g. Resco Explorer, which also is in initial state).
But it seems that the internal storage has been flashed, becaue the My Documents folder is also in initial state, my files aren't there anymore (but that doesn't really matter because I had the most of them on my storage card). To sum up, the Raphael really acts weird.
Something I almost forgot: There several times appeared another notification in between which I've never seen before:
It was white text on a black background (it filled the whole screen) and there stood something (in english) about that my device couldn't boot properly and probably should be hardresetted by pushing SEND and I did, but nothing happend. BTW: It wasn't the screen you know from hardresetting!
I don't know what type of screen that was and what all this is supposed to mean, but it's definitely weird! Does anybody know why this happened or does anybody know similar cases?
Of course I'm aware of the fact that flashing the device would probably be not a bad option, it would be an opportunity to update. I don't have a backup because till today everything went fine since I bought this Diamond Pro as a new device almost a half year ago. I don't remeber the ROM Version but I think it probably would be the o2-Version from a half year ago.
I really would be grateful for any good advice... Best regards
Hi
I've got a strange problem, that appeared last week, without any particular reason. Actually, I just launch a program (Scumm, an emulator for some abandonware games) on my HTC Touch Pro 2, then I quit.
After this quit, here's the problem :
Some icons on the task bar are masked by a sort of box. I say "masked" instead of "disappeared" because one of them is just masked at 50%, and the "sound icon" (mute / volume) appears for 1 second when I raise up or down the sound. I still see the button for closing or switching applications, and I see the Wifi icon.
When I change the wallpaper, the "hiding box" changes color too. So, it's not really black.
Finally, the problem appears also in "landscape" mode.
Soft reset doesn't solve the problem. I've tryed to restore a recent backup... but my version of "Sprite Backup" is finished, so I can't restore any backup made with it... :-/ I don't wan't to do a hard reset, because I don't have other backups.
Have you ever meet (and solved ?) this problem ?
Thanks in advance
PS : sorry for my poor english
A screen shot would help. You've probably got some program starting up automatically and running in the background. Check your Startup folder.
Ok, I'll try to make a screenshot this evening (I'm at work now, and I don't have my USB cable).
Or, is there a way to do it directly with the phone, without additional software ?
In the windows/startup folder ("démarrage" in french), i've got this :
- BTTtrayCE.lnk
- poutlook.lnk
- PKG.lnk
- HTCStartUp.lnk
- DelWMPTempFolder.lnk
seems to be normal.
Here's some screenshots in attached files.
Notice 3 things :
- the network icon is cut
- In the third screen, I've succeeded in displaying the "sound icon" by pressing the "volume button". But the icon just appears 1 second.
- there is not enough place to put the "battery icon" or the Time/Date.
Any idea, anybody ?
have you tried un-installing the programs you are suspecting that is causing the problem?
Actually, I've removed every program I had installed these few days (not so much : sprite backup trial, skyfire and The Core Media Player).
But it didn't change anything.
The problems appears just after launching the software "scummVM" (but it wasn't the first time i was launching it), but this software wasn't "installed". I directly launch it from the files in my storage card.
All of a sudden when I select the Internet Explorer Tile from my home screen on my HTC Mozart nothing happens, it just refreshes the home screen tiles, usually when apps do this rebooting the phone fixes the problem, but not in this case, I cannot open pages from Bing or open links. My phone has been updated to Mango and I have tried to revert back to an older software version but on my Zune there is no option to reinstall the update. I dont want to factory reset my phone because I will lose everything I have downloaded and purchased.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Does it happen if you hit the arrow and select it from your full application list?
If it doesn't remove from home screen and re-pin it.

Thanks for the reply, if I open it from the tile of from the application list it still doesnt open, I have tried unpinning it and pinning it, opening it through links in text messages and through bing but nothing works, I have cleared the history and cookies but still nothing, I dont understand what has caused it.
In the hacking sub forum download my Supreme Shortcuts app and see if the two IE shortcuts open for you.

How do I deploy a .xap file to my device?
Do you have htc connection setup?
if not can you download it from the marketplace and run it?
You won't lose everything.. just saved games. You have to redownload from marketplace but when you click buy, it will tell you you already bought it and download it for you. You can see a list of what you have downloaded at www.windowsphone.com. Sign in with your hotmail id.
not sure what else to tell you from there.
IE will not open on my Samsung Omnia 7 too!

I have the same problem, like like you described. I was using my omnia 7 (wp7.5 unlocked, latest firmware) and suddenly i couldn't open IE, nor launch it from any app. Besides you, i haven't found anybody with the same bug...

Solved mine on Microsoft forums, switching IE settings from "open in new tab" to "open in current tab" miraculously fixed it

I was facing similar issue. I guess I know when it started (but not sure about it).
I had opened Google Search app. I was searching some images. In results displayed, I clicked 1 image. It opened Internet Explorer. When I tried to open "Tab" from Menu to close tab and exit IE, IE was simply not getting close and it was opening continuously. I finally pressed Power button to switch off phone. After phone restarted, it wont open IE. After changing from New Tab to Current Tab in Settings, problem temporarily resolved. But I observed that while internet explorer is open and I open the tabs, it shows absolutely nothing, it doesn't show the tab for the page that is currently open or none of the other tabs that are open. Rather it shows Blank page with symbol to add new tab. But even new tab is not getting added. I tried several reboot on phone but somehow "Tab" thing is broken.
Hope this bus is fixed in 7.8.
(After I reset my phone, now IE is functioning normally with tabs working as well).
