No letters anymore, only digits... - General Topics

Hello people,
I suppose this problem isn't directly concerning only my Topaz, that's why i place this threat in general forum.
Since about two hours my device hasn't got any letters! Sent a mms to a friend, everything was fine. Later tried to write my girl, but only numbers/digits show up in the editor... I don't know what I have done... Maybe some more informations would be helpful. I flashed a different ROM to my device, but I think that isn't the problem. I haven't had used Tweak HD before, then the problem showed up and everything a found was because of this program. So I installed it, activated T9, then disabled it, but the problem is still there. I get this problem, when I use the normal phone keypad.
Could anybody help please?
THX

Can be closed!!! After the fourth or fifth softreset, it works again. Didn't change anything. But for whatever reason it works now.

Help my camera isn't starting anymore!

I'd tryied to hold camera button and from programs menu but both wont work. What can I do? Please can someone help me out?
First off try a soft reset, poke the stylus in the reset hole for a second or two, you won't loose any information or applications trying this, switch the unit back on and try again from the hardware button and/ or the Start/ Programs/ Camera icon
If the above didn't fix it try a hard reset, this will wipe the device back to the same configuration it was when you got it - you WILL LOOSE data doing this - Mike
Thanks for the rep. but,
I did hard reset and it still wont start. AND NOW the camera icon isn't even in the program folder anymore?! help!

This is NOT possible if you hardreset. Hardreset again and try. If it still doesnt work, your unit is most probably defective and you'll have to exchange/send in for repair it.
Just to be sure: You use the erase memory tool in the control panel and had to enter "1234" and then click yes, right?
Yes, I used the erase memory tool
I have itself problem, the reset (soft) don't resolve. Sometimes the camera starting, but frequently NO.
Sorry for my english.

Looking at the camera launching process, I've found a link like:
_camera.lnk
that contains:
21#"\Windows\Camera.exe" ?CameraRc_Grey.dll,-1106
any idea if that is normal content, looks curious for a link especially the interrogation point mark?
What about the -1106 figure ?
Is it possible that this link being corrupted ?
If yes how to modifiy it, seems a ROM file
Any help welcomed
same problem here,
sometimes cam will work but it to often will not. :/
sure ift the cam even dont in factory default config (hard reset) it is broken.
I got longest working duration in factory default, approx one to two weeks.
using third party binaries the failure appears randomly.
Im pretty sure this is a software issue, else a soft rest wont fix it, eh ?!
workaround:
one but very poor solution is, once the cam starts, _never_ quit it, just minimize.
yep, I know ... but the only way I found atm.
Same problem
I have got no news about cam.
I called htc support, they told me to install a fix for camera that I found in htc e-club.
But that fix is not for our problems, is for camera quality.
I installed it but the problem still remain.
Sometimes it goes, sometimes no...
Edit/Delete Message
same problem here. thank you for HTC reply
A solution is to take the pda off without the battery for some minutes...
After that the cam works...
But for also some time... then It goes down again...
I've been having the same problems with the camera.
"Camera" doesn't appear in Programs but "Camera album" does.
When i use file explorer to go to the .exe file and i tap it, nothing happens.
EDIT: i've just used file explorer to go to the windows directory en what do I see: now i have two camera executables (but not one of them reacts)
In file explorer i see this:
Camera 11/12/07 733K
camera.exe.0409.mui 11/12/07 28,9K
camera 11/12/07 35,2K (with Opera icon, i think it's the help file)
camera 18/06/07 35B
CameraRc_Grey.dll 11/12/07 398K
I've never seen the last two files
Hello
i´ve got this Problem nearly three weeks. I´ve installed a new rom and Nadavi camera. Nothing turn the Camera Problem. Sometimes it works sometimes not. I´ve got the idea that the Software that is installed on the device cause the Problem. When i want to send a mms from the camera the camera strikes after that. When i used Mobile Navigator 5.0 the Camera strike again.
I don´t have an exactly answer for the Problem but i´m pissed of!!!! HTC can´t help already

P.S. hope you understand my bad english
I sent the pda to htc support...
I have to call them on 15th june.
When I'll have news I will tell you

Screen get to Bright and stop communicate

Don't know how to name my problem, so...
when I'm writing messages, sometimes screen get to bright and I cannot send, cannot phone, nothing. When I turn off Uni, and turn it on again, it ask me for a password - I don't have any password.
I tried to slow down CPU, I tried to minimize file system cach... still don't know, where's the problem. Now, I think, the amout of messages mayby the problem. So, I deleted half of them and wait, what happened.
Does anyone have similar experience?
I've realised that the problem is caused by outlook (mean sms|emails messanger). The program is named tmail.exe. When I shut this program by taskmanager, the screen get normal and other function too. Even phone (lastly i forgot to write, when I get this bug, and try to open phone, i get error message (this program does not cooperate)).
I found, that this ROM - Tomal (Ranju) 7.7 is made from Wizard ROM - maybe this is the prob.
Does someone know what's happening? And how to get it normal. I think (but have not prove it yet), that after flash it is normal. And couple of days after, all is getting worse. Only what I've installed after flash was SPB pocket plus and Tom Tom 6. No other programs.
i had the same problem in one of the earlier roms i tried....
It can be quite frustrating for sure! Try other roms and see what works, I couldnt find what the problem was and i just moved on to another rom!
San
I tried also TOMAL 8.2 rom. And the problem doesn't dissappear.
Maybe it's collision between SPB pocket plus and WK task manager. So I turn off Wk task manager (which is preinstalled with TML rom) and see what happend.
So... noone has suggestions?
i have seen this in every rom i used. somewhere here somebody even posted photos of his uni while this happened. probably reason for this is a some low-level os bug which lead to this thing, maybe overflow of some cache because for me this happened only when i was typing a lot, no matter which program i used, the result was the same. the only solution i found is to soft-reset your device every hour even if everything seems to be ok at that moment.

Strange issue with Wing and WM6.1 7.7 Rom...

Let me start by saying I'm sorry if this is the wrong section but it is in relation to Roms...
I had my Wing set up on ttran's Open Touch v3.0 Biggy for a goooood long time (it was around when v4.0 was coming out) and all was perfectly good. No real issues. Today my boss said "Hey, let's get your phone synced up to get work email through there." After explaining I really didn't want to, he assured me everything is flawless on his Palm which runs Windows Mobile. "I've got this down to a science." Well long story short, he jacked the phone up BIG TIME! I lost all my contacts, I lost all my SMS, the phone would lock up doing anything except to play a game, I couldn't load the old backup on my SD card (which was from HTC Backup program)... again, the phone was JACKED. I think it all happened when the email wasn't working right because some settings weren't right so he deleted Microsoft Exchange Server on the phone and then the issues started. Anyhow, I get home and figure I need to update to a new Bad Ass Rom so no big deal. I find ttran's newest 7.7 Rom and get it set up. Then I load up HTCBackup so I can restore the contacts, messages, etc. Once I do that, all the contacts are back (thank god) but when I go to check my messages, there's not even the option there!?! It only has "Setup Email." Not even the option as if SMS/MMS was nowhere to be found. I looked everywhere and NOTHING! So I flash it to the v3.0 and get the contacts back and it's fine now but I really like the look of the newer Roms (and might want to try some other cook's too).
So my question to you all is what am I doing wrong?!? I'm confused to a new degree and am just smart enough about these phones to get a Rom flashed, I'm far from technical. Please let me know what you all think here. I'm considering trying to HardSPL the phone and trying the new WM6.5 (do I need HardSPL for that?). The way I see it, if I brick the phone, I was considering changing to the new G1 anyway. lol I'd really rather keep this phone as there's so much cool **** I can do with it thanks to the amazing cooks here on XDA! Love this site and my Wing... it's the only phone I've ever had for 2 years and still love it.
Help!
Anyone have an idea?
Jus reflash the ROM to get back your MMS/SMS then restore the backup again ..
if you want to flash to most of the newer roims u do in fact have to hardspl for them to work and not brick your phome, as far as mms/sms, are you trying to retrieve your old messages hat were on your phone or just the option to be able to send and receive them, as far as i know once you flash you will always loose all your saved messages and if you just want the option, some dont have mms working you have to install arcsoft and network wizard and that should do the trick hope iv helped with your problem
I went ahead and reflashed it back to the 3.0 as it used to be, then installed the HTCBackup and restored my contacts. Sure I lost all the SMS/MMS but oh well. When I tried flashing back to the 7.7 and restored my contacts (since they would be lost again, is this normal?) but again, the Rom doesn't even have the option to do any sort of messaging. I said screw it and went back to the 3.0 and have it now. What I'm wondering now is why does the messaging now thread them like it used to? I get the messaging like any regular phone, one message at a time. The way it used to would keep a thread of messages from each person. How can I correct this? Should I just HardSPL the phone and go to a new Rom??
any ideas??
search threaded msg hack. should guide you through the steps
Can anyone help me find the network wizard for the Wing? I want to upgrade to ttran's 7.7 rom but the messaging doesn't work. I have searched on here and all I find are people saying you need to use it, nowhere on where to find it. Thanks!
as far as i remember, ttran's latest releases had a lot of bugs in it.. sadly, ttran lost his phone before having a fix on these bugs.. i also remember having a lot of sms/mms issues.. you can try reflashing again to rule out if its a bad flash..
the most stable/fast/reliable one is the open touch 6.5.. its the one with the clean front screen. this is what im using

Thanks. Found it but it was already installed on my 3.0 which I've decided to stay with. I read that you need the Network Wizard to update your registry to get MMS messages but when I go into it, all it asks is my carrier. That's it. I also have an HTC Network Setup and that doesn't have anything of the kind either. Why is it everyone says something but I can't seem to find it and it looks so basic on my end?!?
Also, how do you get .rar games on your phone? Possible even?
Thanks everyone!
anyone familiar with updating the network?? I'm not getting it.
very interesting. I keep hearing that you need to edit your network settings but when I can't get it, I can't seem to get anyone who knows to answer me.
Well I guess this won't be an issue now. I appreciate.... well... ttran for coming up with clean Roms but I just wish I could've had help making it work. Doesn't matter now as I'll be getting an iPhone here soon. I've had more help in the last 48 hours on what I need to make it work with T-mobile than I have on this site since I came here years ago. I always get the short answers with no clarification and no one wants to help with that.
On a serious note, keep up the great work Chefs. The roms look great.

JUST CAN'T fix Q9h WM6.1 SMS timestamp error.

Hi everyone!
I've been going through this ENTIRE forum, and countless others on top of dozens upon dozens of google searches, and I still haven't found a solution to my SMS timestamp error.
All the solutions offered up by people seem seriously promising, because they seem to help a lot of people, and that is what's kept me hopeful: that someone out there/in here can help me fix this problem.
Basically, I have an unlocked Fido Motorola Q9h, that is being used on the Rogers network. Never delved into flashing my device, cuz I was happy with WM6. Not to mention I'd got it tweaked to a very lovely point
Then a week ago, my phone locked up after I'd put my phone into airplane mode (I'd done this countless times before with no issue), and just would not let me turn the antenna back on. Nothing I tried worked, so of course I eventually caved and did a hard reset. That was when I figured I would give WM6.1 a try, seeing as how my device was gonna be starting from scratch anyway.
I flashed to an unlocked AT&T WM6.1 ROM, and went ahead with all the registry tweaks to remove all the bloatware. Phone is pretty damn clean if I do say so myself. I've got PHM on there, GPSID, CHome COnfigurator, and that's really about it.
After all that was said and done, and I got my first SMS, I realized the message was timestamped 4 hours behind. Every single SMS from every single contact shows timestamped 4 hours earlier. In the threaded SMS stream, my messages are timestamped correctly, but the other peoples' aren't.
Example:
Me (7:37): Send me a text to see if this timestamp issue's been fixed.
Steph (3:37): Okay =)
The strange thing is that MMS messages come in with the correct timestamp, and that is something that seriously boggles my mind.
Please, please, PLEASE. If anyone out there has some kind of suggestion, I would absolutely love to hear it. Here are the remedies I've tried that have had no effect:
-Installed DST cab from Microsoft.
-"TrustTimeZoneField" w/DWORD value of "0" minus quotations of course
-"TrustTimeZoneField" wDWORD value of "1" to allow the device to trust the provider's time just in case my phone was screwing up.
-"RcvTimeStamp" w/DWORD value of "1"
-tweaked some "NetworkTimeSync" (or something along those lines) entry to a value of "1" instead of its current value of "0," but nothing.
I'm at the end of my rope here guys and girls, so please, anything you can suggest that I haven't already tried would be infinitely appreciated
Thanks in advance everybody
although i dont know the answer ive got a thing for you to try
in the setting section make sure you regional settings are set correctly
Thanks Pilot, will double check those settings. Well, as per your instructions, I've double-checked the settings, and they're correct. Have my locale set as English (Canada), and nothing. Even changed it to English (United States) just to see, but to no avail.
*sigh*
I am almost at my wits end...Is there no one out there with a Q9h running the unlocked AT&T WM6.1 ROM, that's having the same issue??? Or even better, someone out there who's SOLVED the issue?
I've even called Rogers and they suggested a new SIM card, seeing as how I have the original SIM from Rogers, and I'm waiting on it. I've even tried my sister's SIM which is a new one, but nothing. Figure it HAS to be the ROM
Found a solution to timestamp issue with q9 & wm6.1!!!
Hi everyone!!!
I can't believe I'm actually going to be the person posting the solution to this problem, but I guess it's true that perseverance pays off
This post is in regards to the sms timestamp issue that I've noticed several people are having with the moto q9 once they upgrade to wm6.1 and are on a Canadian service provider.
***This solution involves modifying your device's registry, so if you do not feel comfortable or are unfamiliar with the process, please do not proceed with the modification. I will not be held responsible for any bricked/malfunctioning devices as a result of this tweak***
Use a reg editor (I used the free PHM registry editor), and navigate to:
-HKLM (HKey Local Machine)
-Software
-Motorola
-RilDrv
Now that you're in the RilDrv Folder, there should be a few more folders in here...don't navigate to any specific one, just click the "values" softkey (whatever it may be for your devices), and somewhere in the values that become visible, you should see one that says "LocalizedTimeStamp." Open that value and modify it's value to "0" (without the " " of course)
Reboot your device, wait 10 seconds, cross your fingers and toes, and restart your device. Once your device is fully booted, and seems to be functioning normally, send yourself a text message, and check the received timestamp. It *should* be correct (ie. a minute or two or less in the future of your sent timestamp). To be sure it isn't just for your own texts, ask someone to text you anything, and hopefully the result it yields will be the same.
I have only tested this solution on an unlocked Motorola Q9h from Fido, running the unlocked AT&T WM6.1 ROM on Rogers.
I serached for close to a month with no real viable solution, so I just kept poking and prodding at my registry. Yeah, kinda dangerous I know, but I was at my wits end with this little bug. Finally though, the time and investigation paid off
Hope it goes well for all of you out there who are having the same problem!

Help! Problem with windows mobile 6.5

I am repeatedly facing the following problem.
When a call arrives, the contact pops up on the screen almost immediately, but it takes around 5 or 6 rings from the callers end for me to hear the ring on my phone.
Eg. You call me and i will see your name on my screen but it will seem for you as if i picked your call only after 6 rings, but only then my phone rings!! HELP me a lot of people are complaining that i am not picking the call immediately due to this...
Never faced this problem in wm 6.1 or earlier versions.
Somebody kindly assist me
Thanks in advance.
Hi !
I had the same problem. I think it happened when the screen was locked.
It got better after upgrading to a 23001 build.
Which build do you have on your phone?
greetz
Hi flushbeer! Thank you very much for your prompt response! Appreciate it.
I am using [July 4th][PDACorner] Ultimate-X2.V5 -23001|M2D|CHome|Enhanced Version
I even tried TPC Elite prior to that!
And yes u r right i think it happens when screen is locked. Even otherwise i think it happens.
Am using the 23001.x build only!
Thanks again buddy!
Weird... I use the same ROM and this is the FIRST ROM where I don't have this problem.
(I tried many 6.5 ROMs before and with all of them I had this Problem)
greetz
Sorry guys please read the rules, if you have problems post on the threads where you get your ROMs
Mods, please close this thread
sorry guy...
but i don't think this problem ist rom related.
in my opinion it ist build-related and therefore a more or less generic problem.
but it's not my thread anyhow
Hey it aint fair, nobody answers my question anywhere (( If only anyone can answer this.
Maybe it's becoz you are running some software that is not compatible with WM65. Like some builds of MS Voice Command. But you have to sort it out by yourself.
Edit: The way to find problem apps for your ROM:
Backup all your data;
Hard reset;
Install your apps one by one;
Every time after installed a new soft, soft reset, and check the problem occurs or not, if not, install next one, soft reset and check again, until you got the problem occured again.
Then you know it's the last installed app crashes with something. (Maybe not crash with the ROM, but other apps installed before it. To sort this out, you have to change the sequence of cab install and test again. For example, after already know the probs app, hard reset and only install this see what happen.)
What if you did not find it until installed last app? Congratulations, you already solved the problem.
This is the most foolish(time consuming) way, but it works on most cases for probs sorting.
Edit2: BTW, last time when I have similiar probs as yours, by using above-mentioned method, I sorted it out that it was caused by MSVC. (Edit3: Also if my memory is still correct, another badass for WM6.5 maybe the WM6.5 lockscreen,)
What radio are you using? Did you change radios and see if that makes a difference?
