Hi guys,
recently I tried a CJK SIP called Ma Lan Hua by hansvision.
when it became problematic (basically stopped working) I uninstalled it.
Then my touchscreen became disabled.
Is there some REG entry to enable it again?
Thanks!
Hard Reset will probably fix it.
lol and it will "fix" everything else too. Is there anything non-destructive?
yes. ALWAYS keep a backup.
i can't mention this enough i guess.
maybe you can use MyMobiler to plug in to your device and search for registry keys revolving around that SIP... even tho i'm pretty sure you got something deleted over there.. and you'll eventually have to HR
it's not the data ;p it's all synchable..
it's the apps I've collected and installed..
yeah I'd HR already, can't winmo w/o a touchscreen LOL..
thanks
i must be missing something. you can't hard reset without a touch screen? hard reset is done by a combination of hardware keys.

Hi,
I tried to search the forum, I googled around, but I seem to be the only one with this problem:
sometimes (I can't specify it anymore, there is not routine in this problem!) when I open my camera the screen stays black, as if the camara was covered with something (which it isn't, of course!)
I already hard resetted my Crouise, problem was fixed for like 2 weeks, but today, problem turned up again.
Soft reset does not help... any ideas except throwing it at some hard wall?
Edit: Phone is really slow when this problem come up and the only way to leave camera mode is to press the red phone button or do a soft reset
Sounds quite bad, may be a hardware fault...
One hard reset temporarily solved the problem, if you did the hard reset again would it again solve the problem (for a while?). Backup all your files and give it a try.
If not then it may be a hardware problem, in that case I would recommend you send it back to HTC or O2.
If it temporarily solves the problem then it is probably a software issue - I would recommend you try flashing a new ROM, or flash the original ROM.
Just a suggestion...
I did a hard reset again today, backing up my Files via Spite Backup, but after reseting, Camera still isn't working...
Recovering the backuped files didn't help either...
F**k, I really don't want to sent the phone in, because I only have this one, and I sure it's gonna take some weeks to get a replacement...
Is there any way of reinstalling the camera...*hoping for hope*
I have exactly the same problem and i haven't find annything to fix this.
Need some help please
I've got the same problem, I have only find (for my case) some situations...
If you turn on the pda, it works.
if you wait for a while, it works again.
if you wait for some hours, it stop working...
then, if you regular turn off and on the pda, is not secure that it works.
If you soft-reset, it works.
If you keep the pda connected via usb or ac cable, it works everytime (I'm testing it now and it's from this morning that the cam works perfectly).
So I think is a only software problem, exactly I think is apmd error.
Power saving shut down cam device, and when you click camera.exe, the os is not so quickly to return on the device...
I ask to the experts (not me, obviously) if it can be a possibility...
Also can I set, only for cam device, the power saving disabled? So I can test my consideration better?
Thanks
I have WM6 running on a HTC Trinity (the Orange SPV M700 variant) has been wonderful for over a month now, last night I reset it cause I hadn't in ages and it was getting all bunged up and slow, when it came back everything just stopped working.
Touchflo, HTCHome, all the stuff i had running on startup instantly blasted errors at me, and all the applications i have installed wont run, including .cab installers..
The error is:
"The File [File name] cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file."
I'm not one of these idiots who just panicks and complains about a problem, i've searched google a lot, found that its probably the 'security configuration' and found a program that should be able to change it, only, it can't connect to it properly through activesync, i assume because of the same thing. I would just wipe it clean, even re-flash the ROM if i had too, but I want to back everything up first with something like PPCPimBackup which has worked wonders in the past, only, I can't run the executable...
If it really comes down to it i will just manually backup my contacts list and suffer the other losses, but i'm sure there is some genious on these forums who has a magic sollution..
Always keep in mind, it's called a Pocket PC, because it's just like a PC. So from here on out, be sure to reset daily, it's quick and can help over a long run. As far as it not running now (don't know if you have fixed it yet) but try another reset, sometimes when there are too many startup apps, it can cause some chaos and certain apps won't run. Or try uninstalling the apps not working and reinstalling after a reset, after the uninstall.
Also, always a great idea to backup.
I would like to think i'm pretty good with computers, if this happened on my laptop or desktop I'd be able to find the registry values or find a program to change them for me to stop it blocking the apps from running.
Trouble is, I can't run the PPC version of RegEdit because it is blocking EVERY .exe, If it wasn't PPC i'd boot it up in safe mode, using all the default values, but there isn't on in WM6 by default (to my knowledge anyway)
I've reset many times and nothing changes, turned it off, even taken the battery out just in case it made a difference.
I think i'm going to have to do a hard reset and suffer the losses..
Sometimes a hard reset is the only solution.
Saw this in a signautre from NiteStalker, both hilarious and true, "If knowledge is counted in Hard Resets, I must be a genious!"
Hello.
I recently got a Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 (with Windows Mobile 6.1), and I set a password on it.
Sometimes when it would ask me for my password, the shift or fn keys wouldn't work, so I couldn't enter it. I would have to soft reset the device to be able to type in my password.
Frustrated, I decided to disable password protection entirely. I then found that after leaving the device alone for a period of time (while sleeping, for example), it would lock and ask me for a password - but since I no longer had one, I couldn't. I would have to soft reset the device to bypass the password screen.
I searched around, and found that this was a bug in Windows Mobile, and the only solution was to hard reset and never enable password protection. After a while of putting up with it, I flashed my device to use itje's Touch-IT v7, and I performed a hard reset. It was fine for a while, but now it's doing it again: it's asking me for a password when I leave it alone for a period of time, but I don't have one. I never set a password this time.
Is there any real solution to this? It's incredibly frustrating. Thank you in advance.
you mean the security password that is enforced when using exchange email? there is ap app that will enable you to turn it off, but you should read this thread (the app is listed here but you should take heed of the warning from deedee). I leave it up to you.

Try "hard reseting" it
I'm not using Exchange email, and the checkbox to disable password protection isn't greyed out (like it is in that thread). Thanks for the link anyway though, I'll have a look around the registry.
Anyone else know anything about this?
Edit: As I said in my original post, I already tried a hard reset when this problem originally appeared. I hadn't touched the password protection settings at all since my hard reset, but it's happening again.
Does nobody have a solution for this?
are you sure someone isn't messing with your phone and setting a password? I've been using windows mobile for 6 years and never had that problem.
And you said something about a bug.... can you link me to whatever you found?
Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.
I just tried searching for that again, but unfortunately I can't find it. It was a thread with somebody saying that they have no password set, yet the device asks for one so they can only bypass the screen by soft resetting - and that's the exact problem I'm having now. There was no solution posted so I didn't bookmark it or anything.
I am the only person that has had access to my phone, so nobody has messed with it. The password setting is definitely disabled, and the HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\00001023 registry value is set to 1 (disabled). My phone doesn't ask me for a password when I first start it (so I can get past it each time via a soft reset), it just seems to happen after 10 hours or so - I'm not exactly sure what triggers it.
Edit: I'm not sure if this is what I read before, but it seems to describe the same thing.

Thats the question: is it really time for WM6?
So far i believe that the device cannot digest what we have so far of WM6. Too many non-functional things or bugs if you would like to say =_=
Device auto-locks and asks for password and if you dont have a password you cannot get into the device other than by soft reset. Asks password even for activesync! PDAViet has problem with activesync in vista as it disconnects after 5 minutes. WiFi only turns on from Comm center. Hang up's on 25MB free RAM. A lot of memory leak! 10MB to run SPB Time -_-...

I have recently purchased HTC Touch with WM6. 2 days ago, it suddenly locked. I couldn't unlock because it asks for password. Because I didn't set a password, I couldn't unlock.

This is really wierd, i have been using wm since 5 was on the scene and ive never come across your issue. I appreciate that your not using exchange but did you try the zeynee unlock app? It might stop the lock screen, you never know. If it doesnt work then nothing lost huh??
I didn't try it, no. I was concerned about the posts saying the application used up too much battery power, and thought checking the registry would be good enough (since nothing should be changing the value). I'll install it now and see if the problem still occurs. I don't have much hope that this will help though.
Okay, it just happened again. The application didn't help.
Ok, worth a try...
Have yoyu considered flashing to a different rom to see if this works? Is there a new stock Rom available?
Ill have to look more into this, maybe msdn has something on it.
Well, I had this problem with both my original Vodafone ROM and the custom one I'm using now. I'm reluctant to flash it again due to the hassle of reinstalling everything again.
I think it may be related to notifications. It just happened again as I got a text message, and last time it happened just before I received a Skype call. When I'm away and come back to find it locked, there tends to be a new icon in the notification area. It definitely doesn't happen every time I get a notification though...
Hi guys!
Was poking around online, and found this page: http://www.phonedog.com/cell-phone-research/blog/part-1-guide-to-windows-mobile.aspx . It lists a few great programs (many of which have been developed by you folx here at xda). There are two phenomenal ones that work quite well on my TP2.
The first is the SD card tuneup. I don't know why, but it seems to make my WHOLE PHONE go faster. I love it.
The second is the advanced configuration utility. A great way to access tons of settings to better tweak your phone.
Hope it helps you guys as much as it does me.
Warning for verizon users
Be very careful here and learn from my mistake. I did the reg edit from the linked page for increasing the threaded sms space. I copied the file over to my PC, made the edit, pasted back and reset. When I went into text messages and clicked "all messages" it wouldn't open. I hit reply and it wouldn't open. They only way I could send a text was either from favorites or contacts. I still had the original file so I pasted it back reset but but still f'ed up. I finally had to hard reset to fix it.
Another Warning
I would recommend not using the Advanced Configuration program on CDMA phones. Apparently some settings are just different enough to cause weird problems, one of which is being unable to answer an incoming call. (had that happen on my mogul), still see threads warning about using it on CDMA TP2, so be ready to hard reset if you do decide to try it out.
Advanced Config Tool on Sprint TP2
Thank you last poster on the issue with CDMA and Advanced Configuration Utility. I've been beating my head against the wall trying to figure out why I'm having so much trouble answering the phone. Sometimes I can answer, sometimes not. I've also noticed a few other strange behaviors like not getting the pop up "snooze" message I used to get when using the phones built in alarm.
Looks like my only way of not only removing the ACU but also fixing these problems is a hard reset? That seriously sucks, but at least I have a potential for getting these functions working again.

Today I was messing with Advanced Config 3.3 and when messing with the pressure threshold I saw that there was a choice for default. Wrongly thinking I had messed with it as it was on custom I just soft reset without thinking. I know what I did was dumb but is there any way to edit my registry or do something without hard reseting my phone? I have tried installing mymobler and working with reg editers but I keep getting either a yes or no prompt (which I can not tap because the pressure thresshold is too low) or access denied when using Cereg Editor... anybody have a signed remote.exe from mymobler that would work?
Your best bet is to do a hard reset honestly. When I was using Windows Mobile, I would do at most 3-5 hard resets a day. It's usually the fix all problem.
