Hi
I recently installed the DarkTheme from Cm updater, So, installation went fine, so i restarted the phone.. so i waited for the phone to startup, but it never did, so i pulled out the battery and reinserted it. So i turned on my phone, and it did indeed startup.
But the problem was, that there were no home screen !!, i could see the notification bar, and i could pull it down and up, but nothing on the home screen itself.
I noticed that when i opened the keyboard, the notification bar wont rotate. So the phone was responding, but it wasnt working properly.
So this is how i fixed it:
1 - Find another phone, and call the broken phone
3 - Press the green button, leave the phones connected for a few seconds, then hang up.
4 - You will notice in the notification bar: "Preparing SD-Card"
5 - Thats it, it should respond to you open the keyboard.
6 - To install another theme, just open the keyboard
7 - Wait a few seconds till the notification bar rotates
8 - now, press the search button on your keyboard (located right to the ALT button, and left to the @ button)
9 - Type in "CM updater"
10 - It should find the application, just click it to open it
11 - Install another theme
Hope it helped
Hell...
What is this....
If theme isnt working, they did something wrong or it isnt compat with that ver of cyan..
I know, i know thats its me who f*** up, when i removed the battery , i didnt let it "complete installation", so the phone could startup but the home screen wasnt completely installed.
If anyone else did the same mistake as me, this is how to fix
BTW. AFTER INSTALLING A NEW THEME; FIRST BOOT TAKES UP TO 10 MIN!
So you basicly f'ed cuz u didnt let it install properly so next time go in recovery and so reflash the theme and let the phone boot up fully.
Next thing is, this post is so useless i dont even why its here and why would u post ur so stupid f up, it so should b called SO HOW NOT TO SO.
Did I say "so" enough time as u?
So regards BrutalHoe.
this is so #ackeD its funny... lol

my phone is stuck on the HTC Senses screen, and the only thing that works is the start menu, but it doesnt allow me to select anything, other than nothing else works? any ideas?
what you did before that happen ? you may install app or apply a tweek !
Did you flash another ROM before?
When yes:
Do a Hardreset use Task29 to clean all! Flash new Rom! After Flashing new ROM do a Hardreset again! At the first time on Manila Screen do a softreset.
When i did something wromg somebody can Correct me please!
Here are the link:
Task29:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=644781
sounds like the stock rom to me. mine did that all the time until i installed kumars tmous rom. or wait till the 18th and install the official 2.13 rom.
I suppose that you allready tried the soft restart (with the red button).
Remove the battery for a while and try again
good luck anyway
consdering same topic
is there is any app enable me to make a soft reset using one of the physical buttons and this all in the case of device hang up and non response..... please answer me
i think no! But you can take off yout back cover and push the little red Softreset button!
replay
of course i know that ... but moving the back cover alot make it more easy to open every time and in the future it may don't close ever ... so i want that app to just assgin the soft reset shortcut to any phyiscal button to use it in the case of hang up or device freezing

It is how i said! Use the little red button, because when the phone hang the hard buttons mostly hang too.
How often you do a softreset at one day??? I do maybe one in a week with the red button.
So mostly i use xda shutdown!
thanks alot for ur replays guys ... and i tryed the sloutions in the last repaly but really it didn't differ from the AE BUTTON PLUS app ,it works very well in normal mode ,, but if the device hang up or freeze don't work at all....
in my opinion there is no app even it assgined successfuly to a physical button, can do this function in the case of hanging up ..because apps is of course related to the main operating system which is already frozen ...so i think that its no way to pass throw the cycle of removing the back cover and push the red
i understand what you mean but i think you don't understand me... the case of hang up can happen to any one of us more than one time even in one day for any reason ... and to open the back cover every time to push the red button is avery harmful process to cover and may make it don't close well by the time ...so all i want is to make a soft reset to a frozen device without opening the back cover !
i understand and you are right!! But i never found tool or progs that works!
But still we can hope that anybody do it!
replay
yes we hope that...
and thanks alot to you Dic3potr for ur interest and time...
see u later in a big problem
Dear Touche pro experts,
I have a huge feeling that a bricked my touch pro. So i make a post here ( not in romdev. because i wasnt updating a rom). This is what happend:
1 I was trying to install tomtom. That went wrong (could not activate the map, so i removed tomtom normal. Due remove programs. That went fine.
2 Then i wanted to delete the tomtom.cab file. It was on my SD card in a folder called \apps\tomtom. But instead of deleting the cabfile i deleted the whole apps folder
Still no problem...
3 I also had the blackberry app in that folder. But that was gone also. So i decided to remove the blackberry app also on the normal way. Due remove programs. I did that and still no problem. But after removing the app, i got a message (something like), please reboot youre device.
I tought, well that might be a good thing, indeed because i removed so much. So i pushed the on/off button and i reset the fuzz.... Then this happens...
The fuzz buzzes and shows the M rom screen, it also shows (in red) te version.
Then the HTC, just brilliant screen shows. Just like it should be. Even with the right background, sound and so.
But thats it.... Normally the screen comes up to enter youre security code. But that doesnt comes up any more... The screen stay black. I can see that the screen is lit up a bit, > the sides are lit. But that is it.
I removed battery, cards etc etc. But it stays the same,
I can also here the connection sound of my laptop. So the laptop does reconise it.... But to bad, that is it also... I get no map or something. Also active sync does not show...
So now i am really stucked... What can be wrong or who nows what to do now...
I fixed it... I was lucky that i still could preform a hard reset en reinstall the fuzz.....
Hey everyone,
First off i wanted to show my appreciation to the Dev's on this site for all your hard work, The minute I seen the HD2 I had to have it, But out of the box i was kinda let down with its UI and OS limitations, So i checked around and found this site and I've been making my phone more custom to my needs everyday, without these tweaks and mods, The phone would have most likely been returned within days. But now I'm hooked. And I'm def looking forward to seeing a 100% stable android rom so i dont have to use WMO anymore, and I know its just a matter of time. So again thanks a lot for your hard work!
With that being said, I'm relativly new to WMO and this whole customization process, I've gotten this far because of the tutorials on the site and just reading a lot, but theres still some i dont understand, But I'll ask those questions when the time comes in a whole new thread.
*NOTE: I'M ON TMOUS. ROM IS STOCK 3.14.*
The question I have is:
I just installed a cab (longpress reset) so that when i hold the endkey (red button on the far right bottom of the HD2) for a few seconds it soft resets my phone, which is awesome because my phone likes to lock up a lot and I really hate having to pull it apart and reseting it by pulling the battery or find a paper clip or something to push the reset button.
But even tho I have yet to actually turn my phone off, I feel like im going to miss the option (I no longer get the stock action screen with the turn-off phone option since i installed the said cab above.) And at this point, unless I'm missing something, I have no way to turn my phone off now.
I was looking for a - POWER OFF TOGGLE SWITCH/BUTTON - like the toggle switches that came with CHTeditor. Just a button I can place right on my home screen in my quicklinks that if i need to I can just click to power off my phone. Is there currently anything like this available? I've been looking for hours and cant find anything like it.
If not, is this something someone can put together, I would be greatly appreciative and would be happy to donate anything I could.
Thanks.
Dan
I think you are searching for something like this: XP Buttons

Just decide to use CHT 2.0. There you´ll find exactly the switch that restarts the phone

Oh trust me, I dabbled with it the other day, as soon as its out of beta i'll install it. CHT is incredible.

Thanks, But I no longer have the option to select anything when i hold my endkey, which is what i want, so when the phone freezes i can just simply restart it without taking it apart, so i'm just looking for a button (which as soon as cht 2.0 is out of beta, I guess i'll have) that i can put on my home screen for the time being, that just incase i need to i can just power off my phone with the hit of a single button.
It might be on there, but im just seeing the endkey menu thing like the one that came stock on my htc hd2.
Thanks everyone for the quick replies and help!

Yep, I found them, But when i push the "Shutdown" or "Softreset" buttons the cab installed, they just turn my screen off and lock my phone, just like when i short click my endkey. Weird.
Try this one, I wrote it specially for you 8) hehehehe
hello, yesterday i was changing rooms and i was wiping everything trough cwm 5.0.2.3 carebear.jrodd.
After wiping i went to choose zip and then i was sent back to main menu, i could choose any option from main menu, but behind options was waiting for me, tiny android fella with open box and some sort of a arrow sign.
I tried at least 15 times to get past that android fella and his freaking box with arrow jumping out of it , but i could not.
i could use nexus s soft buttons and at the bottom of screen was message saying "back button disabled".
i had to remove battery{ i didnt know what to do/i didnt actually have any other options, that i knew about}, then i powered back in to CWM and flashed rom.
everything works fine since then.
did any of u knows what happened?
i flashed lots of roms and i always trying to do everything up to code, but something like this happened to me for the first time.
it wasnt the most pleasant expierence
the same thing happened to me once on my ns4g. I had to pull the battery.
try flash recovery img at fastboot and then see if you can get in recovery

As long as it is working OK now then all is good.
Happens every now and again.
Ok this has happened to me a couple of times and from what i have found if i press both up and down volume buttons and power button in random combos after about second or third try it sorts it self out. I have tried to create the error and from what i have seen its if you are a lil heavy handed and either press the volume up and down together to start with or the power with one of the others at the same time it does some weird lock on going back or rebooting or anything really. don't think its isolated to the version of CW as i've had it on older builds

It's caused by scrolling through the menu options 3 times. It's actually a feature. I forget where I read it but apparently back in the day there was a dude with a broken power button who couldn't select things in CWM so Koush put in that feature just for him. I believe one of the other buttons works to select items when that's enabled. To get out of it just keep scrolling up or down through the menu options 3 more times.
You ended up in the stock recovery. Hold power then press volume down OR volume up (cant remember which) and you'll be in stock recovery.
Also, the physical buttons are disabled when you press vol up and vol down at the same time. Do it again to return to normal.
happened to my yesterday again, after six months of problems free.
anyway nothing to be scared about.
thank u for answers, i kinda forgot about that thread... LOL
Hi all !!! Sorry for my English but I need your help
I commented what is happening with my phone N5 (which for good and evil is always stock without root or anything, with corresponding OTA updates.)
1- Yesterday afternoon at lunchtime while reading a book in playbooks, I notice that suddenly disappears one line and then appeared intermittently. I close the app and noticed the same thing happening on the screen menu. I shut down the cell and turn on again and I thought it must be an application be kidding. But still does.
2 Also yesterday I happened to change the security on the phone screen. After a while of normal operation, try to turn it on the screen with the button, nothing, the screen goes "black", with light and retrolight turned on but no picture no nothing .
Called the cell to see if it works or is turned off and the phone rings but the screen nothing. Try turning it off and on again by holding the on / off / lock button and the phone restarts, but the screen nothing. In one such attempt to do the above it is seen that managed to turn it off. And I get it on and do a normal boot, except that the picture of my screen is changed to the original. Change the lock screen which was previously using (slip). And it seemed that out or some conflict with the lock. In one of those again pressed the ON / OFF / lock as would normally and it starts all over again.
After I magically back to life, I want to make a full wipe as I think it should be an app that is doing some conflict or something. BUT ....
3I turn off the phone and then press the keys VOLUME UP / DOWN and ON / OFF is normally off, squeezed the first screen with the options but options RECOVERY / BOOTLOADER appears in red I choose RECOVERY give the ok with the key and .... andriod robot appears with the legend below that says something (I do not remember well) without or without controls options appears. So its seems thatI dont have recovery.
After that keep pressing the key ON / OFF and the phone turns off and / or reboot normally. All this I did it again to see if the error reappears and looks that I do not have recovery.
The failure of the screen is increasing. I dont know if they are separate problems or is it all the same problem.
Sorry if I was too long but I need the help of you.
UPDATE Now it seems that the screen died, since I do not achieve to turn it on as before, the light and the retrolight its ok. The phone receives calls and notifications but the screen stills black.
Thanks all.

sometimes things just "derp". itll happen more often if you dont reboot your phone often. also, your phone will be a little bit more responsive if it gets reboot once a day or two.
RMA or fastboot it back to stock, if the screen doesnt turn on afterwards then it looks like a hardware issue, open device and reconnect the display.
