HTC Touch HD Problem - General Questions and Answers

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

Windows keeps asking for password

My version of wm6 keeps asking me for a passord, there is not one set under "lock" and battery status is not set to lock the device,
other progs i have installed are
sky ceedit,xda sim mamager, xda bluetooth manager, gpsdash,wm5 storage, wm5 new menu, resco explorer,real one player,psxpshut,.net cf,lvm secondclock,htc power managment, phonealarm,gps gate,ht custom, magicall,kaspersky AV, wmp today
anyideas please i must be missing a setting somewhere
i have the same problem and still have no answer!!
yeah, mine too.
Instead of starting a new thread, ask this question in the existing ROM thread.
This is not specific to any rom tho. it sonething to do with the s/ware installed if posting saying "Me too", "same problem" why not list what s/ware is installed so we can maybe decide what is causing the problem, if everybody has got the same program installed we would know
Has Anybody found whats causing this yet?
It's not a bug - it's a WM6 feature for enhanced security. If you don't like it tough - perhaps it will change.
So Must i set a password. because i have no password set and the only way to get around it is to soft reset the device.
Surly there is a reg tweek to turn off this "security" seting.
because it not even at a set interval it is on a random time.
I take it theres still no fix for this!!! Sorry to keep posting but running a very stable "XDA Mobile6" wm6 rom i can't be doing with having to keep s/reseting my device
offtopic:
@Garymeg: I saw you had GPSDash running on WM6. Which version is that? Did you install the .net CF? If yes, which version??
My WM6 setup keeps crashing/freezing/softresetting whenever I install GPSDash2 or the .NET CF, but it was the most used app on my S100 before...
thanks for any thoughts on this. Sorry, no idea on your lock issue...

Unhappy O2 Customer
Myself and my partner also recently updated our roms on our O2 Xda stellar, The flash went well for both of us, it was the after effect of realising there is no sliding home screen with the O2 release of this rom.
Im going through every file on our phones trying to see if its just hidden?
but so far nothing has turned up.
If anyone has managed to find a way to enable the sliding home screen please will you get in contact with me and post it here for everyone please.
Thank you
Simon Tasker
Hello there
I understand that the sliding panel home screen is available on non-touch smartphonedevices, although you may read it as a realse component of WM6.1. Bad wording I guess as it is a little confusing.
Regards.
Thanks
Thank you for the fast reply,
I feel slightly cheated by this but hey thats the way it goes. it would be quiet difficult for it to work with the size of the screen on the stellar but it would still of being a nice addition.
Thank you again for the response.
Simon Tasker
Well, to be honest I replied to this as I too was wondering where this feature was.
But hey, look at it this way, you have not lost any features!
In fact, since I got my XDA Stellar in nov 07 I have been using SPB Pocket Plus which offers more flexibility than what I believe Slidin home offers. Check out the Tabs on which you can add any file, program or even a whole plugin as I have the HTC Home plugin.
I've not seen first hand what Sliding Panel is like but Im very satisfied with this set up on mine and maybe this is helpful for you in achieving the same flexibility of customisation and personal taste. All of what you see is just from Pocket plus being ticked in the today screen items collection list.
Ok stupid question as there doesn't seem to be a manual for this on the XDA site.
When installing this, does it over-write any files? ie am I going to have to re-install and re-configure all my software? I just want to know before I do this while away from a net connection.

Indeed...everything is wiped and all the data too.
I used SPB Backup which worked well in the end. I made a few mistakes during the restore process that made it much more of a time consuming headache than it should have been but I think I got back to where I want to be. Ringtone assignments and contact picture assignments were not restored but that may have been my error rather than the fault of the software.

The new ROM. On the O2 site it implies it won't nuke your stuff. Sure it says...
In order to ensure that important files and data do not go missing from your Xda during the software download process, please save them to your PC first before you begin. You'll then be able to reload them onto your device after the software download process is complete.

but that could be read as it might go tits up and break your files, but you'll otherwise be ok. It also doesn't mention 3rd party applications.

Whenever you flash a new ROM the handset gets formatted. Any data on the handset will be lost. If you want to keep anything, transfer it to the memory card first......

Few questions! (Verizon w/MightyROM & DuskTheme)

Okay I've done alot to customize this phone and I love the end results. Just a few things bug me that I'm not sure there's a solution for. I've tried searching but didn't find anything helpful.
1. I installed Sprite Backup and even though the program works flawlessly, I've not only backed up data but restored as well, EVERY time I do a soft reset on my machine I get this error message saying something about SpriteStart.exe could not be opened. Yet I manually open it and it works. I tried their site and they say to reinstall. I've done that more than once, same issue.
2. On the screenshot attached, I really love this ROM/Theme/TF3D setup but I did all the tweaks to stop the internet push concept. I'd really like to remove any reference of it from this as well. Any ideas where in the registry I'd edit that or a CAB to do so that's already out there?
3. I also installed the inbox extender and I love it. I'm wondering if there's a way to set it into the menu in TF3D so I don't have to actually choose "Inbox" and go there to mark all messages read. It's an extra step that's kind of annoying for me.
I think that's all for now. Any help would be appreciated.

Okay, let's see what we have here...
1. Sprite Backup still doesn't "officially" support WM 6.5. So, there might be some sort of inherint problem there at the moment (although I know of a lot of people that have it running fine on 6.5). If you're able to manually do a backup/restore fine, it sounds like you might have a scheduled or automatic backup set? If so, try disabling any scheduled backup and soft reset. Do you still get the error after that? Also, when you uninstalled it to reinstall, did you remove every instance of the program, then soft-reset, then reinstall?
2. Do you think your pages are still being pushed, or do you just want to get rid of the push page links on the internet tab within manila? If you like, and if you already disabled push internet, you can set up your push pages as just "favorites" and set the push frequency to "never".
3. This one has actually been asked many times before. Unfortunately no one has come up with a solution yet. It's not an issue where you can simply edit a manila file, rather it's buried in an .exe or .dll (to the best of my knowledge).
Let me know if any or all of that makes sense. Good luck!
May I ask what Dusk files you used? I'm also using MightyROM w/ my Verizon TP2, but I was constantly getting freezes and flashed back to just MightyROM.

rotation
how do i get the screen to rotate horizontally without opening the keyboard?
thanks.
It is that one but with Spike's taskbar.
Thanks for the replies guys. I ended up flashing the Mighty ROM from scratch and reinstalling the theme leaving Sprite backup off. I'll just manually sync with my desktop.
The push issue, yeah I just wanted that to not show on the internet manilla. I guess I could create my 2 most used sites and set to never push on those. Thanks!!!
One other thing:
Since I'm on Verizon, I realize that my taskbar icon shows EV instead of 3G but I don't like it. If anyone has a workaround for changing it back, let me know.

That network indicator is actually built into the custom taskbar you installed. If you'd prefer it showing 3G, you'll need to install a taskbar that has that instead. If I can find a good one, I'll post a link.
Regarding not using Sprite backup anymore, have you ever tried using Microsoft's My Phone, or there's also Dashwire, or PIM Backup too. All easy to use and all work great.
edit: Also, I believe it's tapres.192.dll that includes the network icons. So if you just want to change that icon, this is the file you'd need to replace/edit.
I actually have PIM Backup and use it all the time but just for my text messages. I guess I was wanting a full system backup so that when I screw it up playing in the registry like I did earlier today, I can just restore from backup and it be back to where it is right now... maybe I'm not being realistic.
And the icon is built into the taskbar? I didn't realize that. Does it matter what taskbar I use as long as it's meant for Manilla 2.1 and WM 6.5?

No, you're not being unrealistic at all. Check out My Phone or Dashwire. both can backup pictures, texts, contacts, etc. I personally use My Phone... good stuff.
If you have the taskbar you used, post it. I'm no artist (really, far from it), but I can see if I can tear apart the .dll and try to edit it. No promises that I'll succeed though.
You did want it to say 3G, right?
edit: Sorry, regarding the question about it mattering what taskbar you use. Since WM 6.1 and 6.5 have different taskbar layouts, they aren't compatible with each other. Manila versions won't matter.

It's this one:
Spike's_ MicNeo_TaskBar_Varient_3_v2_MIGHTYMIKE_CDMA_FIX.cab
and Yes I love everything about it except that it shows EV instead of the 3G icon. I live in the stix and waited forever to sit at my house and see that little 3G on my phone so I realize it's silly but I still want it if possible. Thank you so much!

Haha, that is a funny (just a little). Seeing EV isn't quite as satisfying as seeing 3G when you're on the "BIGGEST 3G NETWORK" in the country!!!
Anyhow, after a little doing, this is what I came up with. Just install it (don't uninstall your current taskbar, this just adds to it) and then soft-reset. If it doesn't work for you, let me know.
Enjoy your 3G coverage... errr... icon.

I actually use and have used SPB Backup for quite some time--and it can and does all that, and then some. All though Sprite and even MyPhone are great, I have come to rely on spb backup.
You can do full or custom backups AND restores of PIM, Emails, Documents, System Data and Storage Cards. There's also a handy little sync tool so you can keep your backup .cab's auto-magically suncconfused to your desktop(or laptop). You can also restore in three different modes: New Device, New ROM, OR standard. And there's also a backup scheduler.
However, it's not free ($24, and sometimes they offer a promo code around the holidays), and as I write this I'm also on MightyROM(11.16.09) with what seems like two files from the windows library that have problems backing up--but the backups do fully restore, and I've yet to have any issues because those two files won't release during backup. Caveat Emptor.

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.

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.

Swype from 2.07 rom required

HI can anyone tell me where to get new skype from 2.07 rom ???
thanks in advance.
You won't find anyone with it here. The best solution is to simply flash to a ROM that has it.
I have so much data on phone can't backup all of it so dont wana change rom for time being........
Im not sure where to grab the version of swype that has been extracted from the 2.07 rom... i am trying to find it myself!
The swype cab created from the version ripped from the Samsung Omnia 2 is all over the web though... google should bring up a couple of places to download it from.
Does anyone know of any differences between the two versions?

You will have to search in the underground... Extracting the software and offering it as a cab is clearly not wanted by the creators and owners of the software. Offering links to warez is completely against xda rules.
The difference between the 2 might be some more language support, and that the HD2 version was made for HD2, as simple as that. I think it still might be an option to flash a ROM which carries it on board - or, at least, as long as this is tolerated.
Maybe in the close future, HTC will bring another ROM update which offers this great piece of software. Or, as stated otherwise, Swype might decide to make a retail offer at some time. If they do at a decent price, I believe they could do great business - as seen with other products, at unreasonably high prices, you won´t sell big, but at fair pricing, you can succeed.
I cannot find the new version anywhere!
If anyone has a link or would like to email it to me that would be very much appreciated!!

I had the same thing, only installed yesterday so didn't do much checking of the phone. Quite a few problem were caused by the T-Mobile version . Data connection is screwed and all email passwords needed to be reset and my Wifi password are also gone lol. Did some reading online as well and quite a few other people have experienced the same problems, some have even had to HARD RESET to get their phones working correctly, fortunetly for me just uninstalling the CAB and giving the phone a few minutes resolved my Data connection issues , will put back on the Omnia version and leave it at that for the time being.
So I advice using the newest version of Swype with EXTREME caution!!!!
I tried it after much hesitation... Had to do a new setup for all email accounts, data connection and wifi connection. But it seems to be fine now, I'll see in a few days if it stays like that.
I'm using SWYPE WVGA 3.9.10.10.5032 on my HD2 without any problems.

Had the same, but all I had to do was re-enter the passwords (and mail servers for gmail) and re-run the connection setup wizard. Now I'm fine and dandy and the software is nothing short of awesome... Supports Italian, German, French, English and Spanish; I tested all languages and it works fine
I'd say it is a crucial addition to the HD2, as I use it every day, and it makes my text input much less of a chore. It is particularly useful because of its multi-language support. I've never had any problems like those described, thankfully.
have you guys done any soft resets since the initial reset after installation? I also found the keyboard became slow to start after I played with the setting. the omnia 2 version is working better for me and with the htc skin looks awesome.

I can't believe no one else posted this...
If you overwrite the ModelID with the file provided, you are effectively telling your phone that you are now....a...tmobile hd2.
The swype keyboard has protection in it...only a tmobile hd2 will work with it.
hence why you need the modelid
now here is the kicker...
Say sprint - you run sprint tv. get an error. wanna know why? sprint asks "what phone" and your phone replies "tmobilehd2.
Same thing with prl updates...
I think you get the point...
when you overwrite the modelid, all exchange accounts - gone (sorta). Your 4 digit pin become a lockout - no pin will unlock it.
in short, bad things happen.
And this is why you always provision your phone before you set it up. part of provisioning is setting the modelid...
which is why people on mighty that forgot to provision before seting up exchange need that fix e-mails cab...
any questions?

@leepriestenator, if I don't use any provider software, I can install swype without any problem right ?
leepriestenator is correct. Thanks. As our phones are all unlock where we are, the problem is just resetting the mobile provider. It is working fine on my phone, though the phone identity is now T-mobile_Leo.
Having said that, it is a much improved version over the one in Samsung.
