Cannot eliminate background picture 'avatar 8' - Touch Pro, Fuze General

hello everyone,
this one is bizarre,...
i took my htc touch pro out of my pocket yesterday, pushed the power button, and found a silouette black and white figure as the background on the home screen.
when i slide to contacts, messages, email, etc. the image goes away, on the home screen, i cannot get it to go away,... i have checked and unchecked the box labeled, 'use this image as the background,' i've soft reset, i've taken the battery and SIM card out, i even found 'avatar 8' and deleted it, but nothing works and this image is still on my device while in 'touch flo 3D' mode, (when i uncheck the touchFlo 3D box, it disappears also,...)
i have no clue how this happened, but would appreciate any comments on how to make this image go away and get me back to the touchFlo 3D screen,...
thanks,
ek

I had the same thing happen. I got rid of it by setting a different picture as background.

thanks, but tried this, and it didn't work,...

can someone help with this,...?
thanks,

In TF3D... scroll all the way to the settings tab and select "Wallpaper". Click on it and a popup will come up asking if you want to use the default wallpaper... click yes.

crav4speed, thank you very much,...! back to normal now and no more 'harpo marx' silouette via 'avatar 8',...

TouchFLO-Once closed, It wont Re-Open unless I reboot phone. Any ideas?

Hey guys
New to TouchFlo - got it installed yesterday.
Having an issue though.
When I open it, by clicking the taskbar button, or in Start, it opens up.
When i want to go back to Today screen, I swipe up on it to toss it away, or even if i hold the right taskbar button to close it, it goes away.
If i try to access it again, nothing happens. screen stays on Today, but is not functional unless i press the END key, as if an invisible FLO is over the screen
Whats up here?
here is what i flashed yesterday
T-Mobile 2.26 ROM : MDA_software_update_226102_22610105_022511.exe
T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radinly

running old AT&T blue network on 8125
installed apps:

Xplore Keyboard

Contact Manager

I had the iphone phonepad and stuff installed, but i couldnt figure out how to switch back to the Today screen without clicking SETTINGS, and still having iphone running. it was slow and laggy. any way around this?
thanks
I had same issue, only solution for me, was to stop using TouchFlo
Touchflo will only pull itself up the first time period...
Afterwards when you push the button to access it, it will appear nothing will happen... however if you swipe your finger as if you were turning the cube, it will infact go to the next page..... try it out
that is stupid!
any hopes of a fix?
The various versions of touchflo on wizard require you to press a button before getting touch to work. Depending on the ROM, this could be button 4 or left softkey.
HTC Tocuh has a video of Touch phone on their website. I see that even here, a button is pressed every time the touch features are accessed. This may be a feature of touch itself, rather than a bug in the way touchflo works on wizard.

if you realy need the cube working 100% buy a touch

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!!
Touch Cruise - Contacts - Missing alphabetical list
I had same problem, checking and unchecking ths Show alphabetical index helped, weird...

Question on Slider home screen

Hello friends, I got the WM6.1 Plane Jane Final by Ricky installed on my Cingular 2125 and I'd like to change the tabs on my home screen.
I have used the CHome Settings tool in Settings tab to hide a few tabs that I don't need (My Faves, Internet etc). When I exit the CHome Settings program, it asks me whether to save and I always say "yes". When I am back to the home screen, I see it changed.
BUT, on restart, I lose everything ! All the default tabs along with default pages are back. So, is there a way I can make this permanent?
Is it a known problem, is there a solution for it? I tried searching, but didn't help much. Thanks for any help.
i have the same question
but sometimes i restart the cellphone it was still Ok

full use of text message menu

Does anyone have a way to get all the menu items to work on the text message screen
Stock Rom, Alltel Touch Pro
See attached screen shot
If I'm not mistaken, you're on the "Conversation" screen -- not in the Inbox. Therefore, I don't think that all of those grayed out option are relevant.
A little weird, but ya...
yeah, i wish it was possible to just have them gone, instead of grayed out. whats the point in graying it out?
I know this is a little O.T but how can you make that menu a bit smaller. If I open it up accidentally during a phone call the only way to close it is to press one of the options.

auto scrolling

I have a T-mobile wing with a problem. I was having a problem with the screen auto scrolling. Contacts, calendar, anything with more than one item in it will scroll to the top. I thought that I might fix it with a new ROM, so I installed 6.5 but still the same thing. The main home screen will scroll up to the pictures tab. I have to lock the phone to make it sleep because if I don't it will turn on and run my battery dead.
Any help would be apprieciated, Thanks

It honestly sounds like a hardware issue to me. I had the same thing happen to my old old Apache and it was the Dpad little button under the nub was out of place and was being constantly pressed and thus scrolling up all the time.
