How to restore HTC Today Plugin - General Topics

Hi, Hope someone can help.
Sorry if this is covered in another thread - I tried to search and failed.
My HTC Touch Cruise seems to have lost the HTC Today Plug-in.
Where does WM6 store the plugins? I just want to restore the original one that came with the phone. It seems to have been broken when I restored a Sprite Backup.
Do I just need a specific file?
All I've found is freeware links to replacements, but i'd rather avoid any more 3rd party software breaking my phone..
Thanks in advance.
David

Go to Start > Settings > Personal > Today > Items > HTC Home. It should be there and unchecked, just check it and it will (should) be back.

How to Restore HTC Today Plugin
Umm. Sorry - I do know how to make things appear on today if they're available. That's my problem - the plugin is not there in the list.
As it happens I went and got a 3rd party version with extra features, so the problem's sorted, but I'd still like to know what file it was that I had to restore.
Thanks
David

Today Screen - Am I being Stupid?

Hi there, I have attached a copy of what everyone says the screen looks like. Mine does not it is missing the whole of the top! Am i being stupid? How do I have it so that it looks as attached please?!?
Kind Regards,
Will
htc home. U have probably branded Polaris (ie o2 orbit2) search for htc home plugin
No I don't but thanks for such a quick reply.....
I bought the HTC non branded handset! I did not get it either..........
Kind Regards,
Will
Chech the Today menu for it, if it's not there do a Hard Reset...
If that still doesn't solve the problem you still can use the search option on the forum
Go to Start>Today>Items and tick HTC Home.
If your device is really HTC you should find it, otherwise you may have to go the "hard" way

How can I display a new Program on today screen ?

Hallo to all, I want a helping hand.
I have put the SpriteBackup tool on my Polaris, now I want to display it on today-screen.
But I can it not activate, it don`t show in settings - elements.
I can activate so much Tomtom, Scype, .... but not Spritebackup.
How can I transfer this file to the right folder ?
Please no instructions, as use SPB pocket plus ore other`s, only the instruction to transfer on the original today-screen.
(I know, I have done it on my XDA II , but it is so long time ago, I don`t remember)
Thanks in Advance

try looking for the today plugin settings in sprite backup itself rather than on the today settings screen.

There are different versions from SpriteB ?
I take it from my friend`s Orbit2 -CD, there is original included, at his device, and free of licence.
But I want to display it on today-screen, here I can control , if it is working fine.
Who can I get a version, there is ready to my needs ?
Thank`s Hansi
Hey,
I use Sprite backup and it has no today plugin im afraid.

HTC Touch HD Problem

Guys,
I need your help. My HTC Touch HD cannot initiate the TouchFlo (3D), and I cannot view it the way it should be at all. I don't know what happened but it just doe sthe following when you restart it:
It will go to the TouchFlo (3D) Page and the message saying "Tap Here to Launch TouchFlo (3D)
I tap and it keeps saying Launching TouchFlo (3D) but it never does that
I can access the mobile from the Start Menu but I want my Touch HD Back to the way it was before.
Anybody has any suggestions please post them or email me at: [email protected]
thank you guys

Save PIM data (ex with PimBackUp or similar) then make an HardReset: HD off, Hold VolUp+VolDown then one click on PowerOn Botton.
D'rath
PS: The process erases all your data but solve the SW problems
Wait, hard reset is the last solution!
Have you installed an application or any graphics drivers? New rom?
If so then you could try to uninstall it and see if the problem is solved!
Sometimes I had this when installing bad drivers.
You could try to install these drivers. (at least before doing a hard reset)
helio is correct,
HR is the last resort (although it will of course fix the problem) as you wont understand what has caused the underlying problem, you will then install the same software/apps and end up with the same issue.
Look at what you have have installed recently, or changed manila files. An incorrect change if playing with a manila file will cause touchflo not to start.
Thanks Guys for your Comments and Recommendations, I really appreciate that,
I need to know how to Backup the PIM Data. I found a file with pim next to it and I already saved it on the Storage Card. Is there any other PIM File(s)? I also listened to you onnot doing the Hard Reset, and removed every software I have doubt about or had installed recently. But the problem still presists, TouchFlo (3D) Cannot launch. Help and thanks again.
Use this app, zip below, to back up your data (emails, contacts etc). The app is simple to use. Word of warning if you use Exchange to sync email and contacts, be CAREFUL....restoring your contacts and then syncing will duplicate all your contact entries (i know because i did it and ended up with 2000 contacts!!!)
You dont say what you had installed, just that you had removed them. Purely unistalling may not fix the issue if a registry change has not reversed.
Have you been playing with any manila files, or deleting anything you shouldnt be? Have you been playing with the registry?
If you really cant analize what you have done and without much more info, you have to decide if the HR is the only available option to you (ie you want the quick fix).
Dear Timmymarsh,
thank you for all you've done for me, I really appreciate that. I am sorry I did not mention what I did. What I have done is try a new ROM, I think it Was WWE but which one I don't remember. I downloaded a bunch of files from this site, thinking they would work without testing them first. But they did not turn out to be what I was looking for. I downloaded the Choco Clock, Sygic GPS, and others from the Manila....and other developers but when I unzipped and installed them they did not work for some reason. So I just deleted them, the thing is I know I should have uninstalled them first. But for some reason I just can't even find the files created by these add-ons or applications. No, I did not touch the registry at all. I am not a Software Man, obviously you guys are amazing in this stuff, I am more into infrastructure if you have any uestions about Wireless Network or Physical Security let me know. I am trying to learn more about this Mobile and want to be able to utilize it to the fullest. Thank you again. For this time I think I am going with the HR so I can erase everything that I downloaded and did not setup Properly, then I am going to install only trusted add-ons and softwares. thanks.
No probs my friend, its what we are here for yes
As for what you have done, its always best to uninstall first, just deleting causing reg problems hence the issues you are now facing. I would say on this occasion HR is your best bet. Best bit of advise i can give you is, install one app/software, test and if there are no compatability issues then add another, if there is then at least you know to safely remove by unistalling that app.
Have fun, the HD is a brilliant bit of kit and can be expanded/modded vastly

HTC Mail app config file??

Hello everybody (First post )
I have a stock HTC magic (32a) and have been using the HTC mail app for about 5 months without any probs... until now.
My accounts suddenly disappeared yesterday. I could recreate my hotmail without a problem but exchange was a different story.
When i try to create the account again, the app acts like I'm editing it (all parameters are there in disabled mode). The only actions I've got is save and discard.
To keep a long story short, i've been searching the file system for a config file containing the accounts so i can clear them. After 20mins of Astro'ing , i gave up.
Seeing that you guys include the app into the ROM's, maybe someone here knows where the app keeps it's data?
I really hope someone knows an answer, closest HTC support is gonna get is a wipe...
ps: i tried uninstalling the Mail app but i can't, suppose that's because it's "baked" into the htc ROM.
Did you try Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > HTC Mail > Clear Data?
(I know - Its very obvious - but since you haven't mentioned it in your post, sometimes the obvious is a good place to start)
OMG thank you...
Thats some serious android basics 1 on 1 there

tarecordexecution????

i hope someone can help me out here, i've been using my rom for quite some time now with no problems, then, all of a sudden i get an error called "TARecordExecution.exe" and it says [ Cannot open 'TARecordExecution'. A critical component is either missing or cannot start because program memory is unavailable. Tap Start>Settings>System tab>Task Manager, stop programs that did not automatically stop, and try again. ] this messages pops up every few minuets or so and can't seem to find anything around the net to help me solve the issue.
same issue here. and i'm using the stock rom. it's maddening!
A hard reset is probably needed
I got the same problem some time when i soft restart my T-mobile touch pro2 with cook rom, but after restart again, the message normally with not pop up, i guess it may cause by some software install on storage card.
i guess Bruce Inman is probably right, the only way around it for now is to hard reset. i took it a step further and changed my rom and radio. unfortunately, due to the amount of applications i install ( 64 to be exact and growing ), i can't say i'll ever find out which one is the culprit. i hope someone else will have better luck in finding the program behind this.
not sure if it's related but mine began after I uninstalled an app, TripCase.
I have started getting this message. I get it at random times.
I got it once after I sent a text message.
I got it another time after I restarted my device.
I went into the file explorer and noticed TARECORDEXECUTION.exe was created 11/27/2009
Then I checked when I downloaded a program (their install files) and the only one was SPB Mobil...
I doubt this is the program that did it... I really don't want to have hard reset my phone.. I really don't feel like losing my Apps...
Any help?
Each one that have this issue should post their apps for process of elimination. Are you all on the same ROM, Carrier, etc...?
All of this info will assist in identifying the culprit
Ive got it to. I deleted the c:\windows\TARECORDEXECUTION.exe and removed the enties from the registry(keyword shearch on TARE) and deinstalled: the today/tab customiser.

so are you saying that today/tab customiser was the cause? because i never had that program, i did however have home screen customizer which was downloaded through windows marketplace. are we talking about the same thing here? by the way, i no longer have this issue after changing my rom from dutty's hg r1 to tess leo I, even after installing all the same programs i had before.
TARecordsExecution.exe
Regards
Have the same problem. I installed 2 programs on Marketplace. (HomeCustomizer and TreeSize) Either it is a Marketplace Bug or spins of the customizer, now uninstall the customizer! Let's see.
I had also downloaded the Home Screen customizer from Windows Marketplace... I have a feeling that is the culprit.
I run Sprint...I have a Samsung Intrepid. No ROMS...just stock Winmo6.5 professional.
I have deleted the TARECORDEXECUTION.exe and uninstalled the Home screen customizer from the marketplace...How do I get into my Registry to delete the TARE files?
same here, the Home Screen customizer from Windows Marketplace ... and as i recall it had an update just before this issue began (btw, i'm on the standard rom)

search xda for regedit, download, install, then use that program to search for tare.
Seems kind of weird to have home screen customizer as the problem because i have it installed now and it's giving me no problems on tess rom. i guess the problem only happens on certain roms.
i uninstalled Home Screen customizer through Windows Marketplace this morning and have not had the issue all day, and previously it would have already happened a bunch of times by now (again, i'm on the stock rom, at&t tilt2)
Same here, I have the stock at&t rom on a tilt 2 and started seeing this error after I downloaded the homescreen customizer. I am using the Titanium interface not TF3D.
Hi all, I wrote the Home Screen Customizer app that's on Marketplace.
A workaround for this issue is to:
1) Uninstall Home Screen Customizer
2) Restart the phone
3) Reinstall Home Screen Customizer
4) When adding panels, don't use the "apps" panel for now. You can keep using other panels safely.
Now, I personally haven't seen this issue on my Raphael. Could you please tell me when you get this issue? Is it with specific programs that you're trying to launch?
Thanks
I have not necessarily experienced it while trying to launch a program but it appears to pop up randomly and I am forced to do a soft reset. I guess it is trying to do something in the background. I have Opera, tasks, calc and notes in my apps panel.
BTW an Opera panel with bookmarks would be useful!!
Thanks for your efforts.

I don't use the new Windows home screen at the moment (just some "normal" plugins and MS3.5), but I get the error every time I sync my device.

no, nothing specific, actually i won't even be using wm6.5 default when the problem occurs, it happened when i had htc sense 2.5 active. however, like i mentioned before, the problem happened on dutty's holy grail r1 rom, no problems with tess leo.
