please help
I have updated the fix for the camera, but now my xda has gone mad.
it keeps opening my text messages and internet explorer, every couple of seconds, my sync isnt working either, need to know how to revert back to the previous settings.
I can live without the camera and record buttons working but cannot live with it opening programs every thirty seconds

I'm sorry to hear that, you're the first reporting that kind of problem!
Anyway, just remove the entry HKLM/Services/CamRecSvc in the registry and do a soft reset.
Cheers
Don't know how
Sorry DotFred you are talking to a newbie, don't know how to change a registry entry, I have trawled through the forums but to no avail, can you either let me know how to do it or point me in the direction of where to find out.

Ok no prob. Denise,
Here is a little app. that you have to launch on your ppc, it will remove the camrecsvc service.
Cheers

ps.: can you tell me what version of himalaya and the OS you're using ?
Thanks
Hi Fred,
you forgot to attach the fix, but it's no matter last night i trawled through the site and finally found the how to for my XDA its a XDAIIs which I belive is a Blue Angel, I have now managed to get a registy editor and have deleted the files but it has not solved my problem.
The problem I am experiencing is as if a button is stuck and it keeps opening Text messages and IE constantly.
I am using OS WM2005, can't find where the about button is to find the version.

What fix, the uninstall_camrecsvc.exe removes the camrecsvc.dll from the ppc and deletes the related keys from the registry.
And yes, if you have a BlueAngel, it won't work (go here and you will know which ppc you have http://wiki.xda-developers.com/). I don't check the type of ppc, and maybe it's a good idea to add that to the service.
Anyway, you seem to say that the problem remains even after the deinstallation of the service, am I right ? Are you sure the service has been removed. Do you have a file called /Windows/CamRecSvc.dll ?
Otherwise I don't think you have a lot of choices.
I would try a hard reset first and clean the registry.
If you have an himalaya:
Press ResetButton and hold down CameraButton + RecordButton.
Hold them pressed until the "Boot Options" menu appears on the screen.
Select the options as follows:
(for selecting use RecordButton, change values with CameraButton)
Enable KITL -> NO
Clean Registry Hive -> YES
Format Storage -> NO
When done, press DPad and wait until OS starts.
If you have a BlueAngel, just find somewhere here how to do a hard reset.
ps.: before doing this, I suggest you to do a backup of your pim and important files first in case you make a mistake at some stage.
If the problem still persists. Then I would suggest a reflash of the OS.
Cheers and good luck,
.Fred
Thank GOD!!!
Hi Fred,
Thanks for that, played about with it for a bit and reinstalled the fix and got a different registry editor, deleted the dll again and it seem to work.
only issue i have now is when in sync it asks me for server IP address, i have seen a forum for sorting this.
thanks again and that will teach me to just do an update without checking what device i have!
Cheers

Hi Dotfred, after installing the downloaded file, the buttons respond perfectly. But the camera button takes me to MY PICTURES. Am expecting to see the camera icon there but vanished. I went to the program files to call the camera from there but I get the same problem. Am using 2.0

Just create a new Text document on your pc and open it with notepad
type this:
40#:MSCAMERA?shellres.dll,-8263
rename it:
camera.lnk
And save it on your ppc here:
/Windows/AppButtons
Cheers,
.Fred
ps.: if the camera app is not launched then there is a bug or something different in that ROM
hi dotfred, unfortunately I have hard reset my phone and everything is normal now. The buttons are working perfectly with your application . Thanx and keep up the with the spirit of the forum. GREAT WORK!
hi guys...
just recently..ive upgraded to tofclock 2.01a.64wwe...and has the camera button function...but after i installed IA software..camera button dont work anymore...

hi DotFred.
You made a hell of a job by doing this.Thanks a lot, only.... the green-red lights still are dark at my Qtek2020 with tofclock's 2.01a.64wwe, radio 1.17
I copied the .exe to my device and started it, gave a soft reset but no lights. The HW buttons are ok (great!) Am I doing something wrong?
problem solved: I used the wrong version of camrecsvc.dll.
After copying the wright one (2.1.0.1) to windows\ and restarted the program is was ok. Thanks .Fred for the excellent program.

Just check if the camrecsvc.dll is started.
Some people said that the setup doesn't work on their hima.
So they had to do the installation/upgrade manually.
Read the related posts on buzzdev.net, you will probably find the answer.

Thanks DotFred,
you solved my problem about camera / record non working buttons
Thnaks again!
Buttons work & leds are shining after install, but this features don't work after soft reset. Help please. c-shekhar WM6.1
hi,
I recently updated my Sprint Vogue's ROM to the new Official Sprint ROM - SPB Watcher worked on the old WM6.0 ROM, but no more.
does anyone know if there is a version of SPB Watcher that will work with WM6.1?
thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398571
quick question... using SPBwatcher with Treo 700wx, how does one dial a number from the now screen?... I used to hit the green "send" key to bring up the "today" screen and then enter the number.. but if I use SPBwatcher, it doesn't allow the today screen to show, so does anyone know how I would dial a number?
SPBWatcher not working correctly with WM6.1
I am having a problem with SPBWatcher after upgrading to WM6.1. The app seems to work on wake up OR when I cycle screen off/on ( w/ now screen on wake checked) however when I OK out of menus it will go to the Today screen and not activate to go to the SPB now screen. I have to choose to it from the SPBMenu in the lower left of the screen.
Anyone else seeing this? Any thoughts or solutions? Have tried reinstalls of SPB MS and SPBWatcher.
Thanks
New Year's bug?
I verified that SpbWatcher doesn't work anymore when the date is set to 2009.
Instead, turning it back to 2008, everything works well.
Have anybody encountered the same issue?
Any solution?
Thanks in advance.
i never encountered this problem.
ok, I solved the problem: in Today settings, I moved the SpbWatcher element up in the list.
Perhaps some conflict between process or priority, I don't know.
By the way, now SpbWatcher works.
Hope it could help others that eventually encountered this problem.
thread will be moved to Q&A section
Hi,

anyone can help?
restarted 4x today...anyone ?
do u have ce-star installed? if so that is your problem...try uninstall and the problem should go away...! cheers!
no i dont have install ce-star.
Anybody else have this problem or find a solution?
I have a 100% bone stock AT&T Fuze that recently developed this exact problem. It's receiving SMS & email, and you can preview new ones through Manila/home screen, but pressing INBOX gets you nothing. It registers the touch, but the actual messaging app doesn't load. You can't load it from home, via the start menu, or the programs menu. Resetting the phone fixes the problem for a while, then it breaks again...
Any ideas? It's VERY frustrating since it happens several times a day. I can call AT&T, but they're pretty much useless.
Thanks for any advice!
1st of my english is very bed ok... soo i have a same problem regarding sms, email, is not appear inbox.. then i will go in programs there is
card encryption ok u have to remove check.. bcoz there iz automatic lock your messages.. i hope your messages will be appear

1. I can't switch the accounts with finger slide like in my old Cruise.
2. When I delete a mail I need to wait couple of seconds to see the next message.
Same if I slide to see another message.
I also see a fade effect transition and I want to disable it. The animation it's disable.
I use 6.1 UDK Rom.
Thanks in advance for help. It's drive me crazy when I need to read fast on the road couple of mails.
Nobody know how can I fix this issues ?
It’s annoying to click to delete a mail and wait to see if you click or not to try again or not… and also wait to see next mail…
Please help if you know some tricks to disable the fade effect in Outlook.
I search here but I don't find nothing.

Until it's fixed by HTC you can 'fix' it yourself: Tap on the Windows button and select Lock at the bottom. Preview should work then (I have no idea when it will stop working again).
Strange bug...
Thanks mate !
been locking with s2u2 since the update and was wondering about the bug as well, cause I like the HTC lock better. Works fine again. Thanks

Thank you very much ukadvantage! I was so frustrated with loosing this feature that was nearly hard resetting my HD2. Now it works! I hope HTC will fix in further ROM versions.
