I am using Faria's Rom [the real thing], and today when I tried to intall the beta 3 version of battery Status to the ROM it couldn't complete the instalation. Then I went to add/remove programs menu to delete the previous version of the Battery Status, however, the were no programs listed there. The list is empty. I remember having this problem once when I tried the MB Rom. Any suggestions?

That is because the program in built into the ROM and therefore cannot be removed using the remove programs. Go ahead and download the update and install it.
Nope, I know that, but I have a lot of other programs that I installed myself. About 10 of them, and they all seem to be working fine, however I don't see them in add/remove programs.
Are the programs your using installed via activesync, do they show in activesync as installed programs? were they installed on a storage card?

The active sync doesn't connect to the device. All the programs were installed in main memory.
it sounds like you might have to go back and install them through active sync. It might not work, but it would sort of force active sync to recognize your programs, do you know what i mean?

Yes, but when I said add/remove programs menu, I meant the one that is in the phone, not in the active sync. I don't see the one in the phone menu
I think that if you want to update a program that's already in the ROM you will have to run th CAB, then remove it with the add/remove programs option, and then re-install it. otherwise the device may not recognize the updated version.

I had the same problem after upgrading to the BatteryStatusExt.1.04.203.beta4.CAB. I could not activesync, could not delete, move or rename any files with File Explorer, could not install any CAB files and there were no programs in the Add/Remove programs list (even though like you, I had 10 or so installed). I was able to remove the BatteryStatus folder using TotalCommander but unforutenly, this did not help.
I had no choice but to hard reset my device which of course sorted the problem.

I've had the add/remove go blank on me several times...would not allow me to install any cab's...and obviously I could not uninstall anything if it wasn't listed. The sad thing is a hard reset is about the only fix. I started using Sprite Backup so if it happened I could get back to a recent image. It always seemed to occur about the time I went into camera settings and made changes too but I couldn't nail down the culprit..the one time I took an image, then did the camera settings, of course it worked fine. I know you won't like my answer..I sure didn't when it happened to me.
I've had to restore my Kaiser after Pocket Breeze wiped out all of my info in PocketInformant. Now I can't sync to my PC. I've tried deleting and reinstalling ActiveSync (4.5), renaming my device, deleting partnership, deleting AS log, nothing helps. Get an error message telling me to disconnect and reconnect device but when I do that, AS doesn't even open. Anybody have any ideas on how to solve this issue? Me and Eeyore - thanks for noticing...
I´m having unsolvable problems with the syncrinization between Outlook 2002 and my PDA:s.
I´ve tryed to uninstall outlook and installing it fresh again. But my old contacts (and errors) is still there after the uninstall / install process.
Aparently this is saved separately.
So my question is: how can I completely uninstall outlook and all files related to it, in order to install a truly fresh version?
No one?
Help would be very much apreciated.
Hey i just hard reset my device and now when i try and reinstall skype and Sktools it says that install unsuccessful when i try and install....
does anyone know whats wrong???
its a bit weird because i uninstalled both programs before hard reset, and now i dont know what to do
maybe you should specify which ROM and which device you're using.
Did you install apps to your storage card or device? Did the apps unistall properly, that is to say is there still the program folder present? If the app folder is still present, delete it, soft reset and try to install again.
Hi All,
I want to sync my contacts/calendar entries from PC to Android, also access/send messages from my PC via phone.
After googling I found Kies, My PhoneExplorer and Andriod-Sync are suitable options.
But when I start these apps and connect my phone via USB cable, none of them are able to detect(or connect to) my phone.
My PhoneExplorer and Andriod-Sync require phone to have 'USB debugging' enabled.
I tried all three applications with all combinations (usb debugging on/off and usb mode to kies) none of them seem to be working.
My guess is, it is not working since i've flashed a custom rom on my phone (Kyrillos' ROM v9.2) and also partitioned sdcard.
has anyone tried this?
PS: I've tried re-instaling adb/phone drivers, even that did not help.
Go to the thread with all the stock apps from JPU. Download the app called MTPapplication.apk and move it to your /system/app using root explorer.
shouldn't MyPhoneExplorer work even without the MTP? It uses its own app? Or does it still rely on MTP?

I have no idea. Haven't used any of the other apps. All i know is you need MTP to use Kies and Kies is good for syncing contacts etc. (Useless for updating my phone)
Use google contacts, it's very easy to sync them

Hey Smonic,
I installed MTP app and tried connecting, still no luck
MyPhoneexplorer and andriod-sync still dont detect it.
Kies says:
'Cannot start service on the device. Please disconnect then reconnect the device'
I've tried reconnecting several times, it always gives this same message.
Try a wipe of your phone, deinstall all samsung stuff on your pc, then reinstall samsung drivers. If you want to back up contacts use google and if you want to backup sms I think there is an app in the market that can do it.
