Hi There,
I got a problem on my Touch Diamond 2 (Topaz) stock 6.5.
Most of the time (not always), when I soft reset, I have a services.exe error.
I found a couple of threads discussing the same error but no answer.
I know a hard reset would certainly fix the problem but I just would like to avoid it.
I don't expect an answer to this because I am aware that services.exe is the WM service wrapper so it could be any of the services that causes the problem but I only want to know if there is a way to know WHICH services is causing the error ? (On windows desktop, event log helps to find out most of the time which services has stopped unexpectedly). Is there a hidden log somewhere ?
Thanks for your help.

Guys,
I have installed and uninstalled Skype and now get the following error everytime I switch the device on:
"Cannot execute \Prgogram Files\Skype for PocketPC\skype.exe"
have queried the registry, have again installed and uninstalled skype but still, the error is there ...
so any other idea, before I have to perform a hard reset?
I have the same problem. I've submitted a support request to Skype today. If I get any useful response, I'll post it here.

and you are sure that there are not shortcut in windows\startup ?
to it
yeah - no shortcuts - I tried everything....
installed skype today again (for the 10th time) and uninstalled...
didn't get the errors a couple of times - but after the first soft reset: there it is again..
I don't have a clue....
I had some startup shortcuts wich I wans't sure what they did. As a test, I moved all these shortcuts to another folder, leaving startup empty. After soft reset, the Skype problem persists, so it's not a startup issue unfortunately.

Solved
No response from Skype, but from their own forum it appears they've been aware of this at least since last October, but haven't fixed the software release. Skype's great, but I suppose uninstall problems are to be expected from the same people who brought you Kazaa....
Anyway, I solved the problem using this free utility:-

Download CheckNotifications, run it and delete any entry for Skype.exe.
Looks like this app can also speed up machines which may have slowed due to accumulating Notification logs when soft resetting.
I don't get the ntification anymore. I'm relieved as I was on the point of hard-resetting.
Hope it works for you too.

Can anyone help with a problem I have with this model.
It keeps losing the O2 text settings which mean I cannot send or receive emails or texts.
If you can get to the phone settings it is no problem to replace the settings but getting to the phone settings IS a problem.
I have been told that the settings will not run if other programs are running and I used to be able to get to the them by closing all programs and doing a soft reset.
However try as I might I cannot get the settings to run and consequently a big part of the functionality is missing. All that happens is that the settings flash briefly and then close.
Can anyone offer a solution (other than a hard reset) please or are there any known conflicts with other programs which might be causing the problem?
The eten tech supports seems to be non existence,
I think I shall have to replace the device with an HTC Kaiser when available as it has just been too buggy by comparison with my old tried and trusted XDA II which went on forever and was only replaced when the screen started to wear out.
Many thanks.

I have tryed this solution from pcgeeks and I still got same error. What is the problem?
Did you follow all of the steps exactly as written?? Did you truly clear all of your SMS and MMS messages???
solution
I got the same error on my HTC Touch Diamond and all i did was to delete the MMS's in my inbox. This solved the problem
MMS is the problem
Hi, I'm quite new here.
Had the same problem. Tried to remove newly installed programs (thought of interferring dlls), resets, resored backups... No chance.
And finally "Ricky318i" is right: I also just deletet all MMS on my Xperia.
That just solved the problem.
Does anybody know why?
regards,
gladius
I installed Garmin XT 4.20.50 right after a rom flash. Problems occurred right after I made a restore of my SMS/MMS's with PimBackup. Got this "misalignment" fault.
Solved the problem by just deleting all my MMS's only (search in ALL folders), meaning you can keep all SMS's, and restart the phone. Now Garmin works perfectly again!
However, this is not a permanent solution and just shifting shape of the problem, but what I do is just deleting the MMS's after receiving them and Garmin works again.
Strange.....
i understand that this question may have been asked many times in this forum but considering that they are rather dated and i have yet to get a solution to my problem i thought i started a thread here. Do bear with me as i'm rather new to using a WM device and to this forum but i thought this would be the best avenue to hear opinions and suggestions.
i'm currently using a Sony Ericsson Xperia X1i, ROM version1.02.931.3
all along when i have been using this phone, never once did Activesync start up on its own unless i connected my phone to my PC.
Recently, i accidentally pressed upon turning on the Microsoft Direct Push option found in my Comm Manager program and ever since then (even after turning it off) Activesync has been constantly been running minutes after me having closed the program.
I have tried many methods that i have come across while checking search results in google and in here (especially in the wiki).
from creating a fake server to having set my schedule updates to manual for both peak an non peak timings, to having disabled AppRunAfterTimeChange from the notifications list of the program “repllog.exe”. i have even deleted all notifications relating to “repllog.exe” (thank goodness to memmaid being able to restore the notifications!) and still the problem occured off Activesync still running by itself after having been closed.
i'm kind off exhausted as to how to resolve this problem of mine, i do know that some pple would voice that Activesync running all the time is normal but having gotten my phone without this issue it would please me most if i can actually have this problem not occuring at all
i do appreciate you having to read my mini wall of text and do hope that someone out there has a solution!
quickmenu is supposed to be able to close it permantly when active sync is closed, but thats not much good if u dont sync. I have had this issue before. Now for some reason my jamin with 6.1 doesnt do it (but never used exchange before) and my polaris does (have used). The only way i was able to stop it was a hard rest, drastic i know.
I'll have a search for you as i have read other methods but cant remember if they were successful or not!
well i didn't have that problem when i first got my x-1 : |
really have no idea wad to do to get it back to its previous state
as much as i've gotten used to activesync popping out forever
but i'd really wish for a solution where i can get it to be 'away' and come on only when i sync
Hoping someone can help. I'm have a problem with my Diamond 2 each evening.
Opera is throwing up an error page every night (not sure at what time as I'm asleep) and my hand set freezes at 11.54pm every few days (have to remove the battery to restart the device once its frozen). I need some help in pin pointing the cause. I'm suspicious that the two problems are related though they may not be.
Opera generates a report for Microsoft which mentions Opera.exe and NK.exe. I think that one of these programs or possibly another is trying to update itself and for some reason it can't compleet the request. I checked to see if I can see web pages on opera which still works.
Is there a log file or a monitoring program which I can use to establish what may be causing the freeze and the opera error?
I suspected it may be Apptodate and removed the entries I found in windows/applicationdata/apptodate but the error came back the following evening.
Also on my list of suspects was Quickgps. I decided to click the manual update button which should stop Quickgps requiring itself to automatically update data but again the handset threw up the Opera error the next evening.
I've turned off push internet and removed the push pages I had set up
I'm happy to solve this on my own but just need to be pointed in the correct direction. Can anyone recommend a way to pinpoint the problem.
Thanks
Rather than going through trouble-shooting, perhaps you should try a hard reset.
Also, it's probably not advised to pull the battery as you described. Try the reset switch. That's why they made one =)
