im sorry to keep bringing this up, and have read all the threads related, but i either dont understand them or they dont actually apply to what is hapenning on my phone. I bought the igo8 sd card. when i put it in my phone like other people said, the symbol came and then nothing happened. so i followed the advice on one post and updated the version and installed all of what was new. then on my phone when i clicked the igo tab, it went further than just the microsoft circle and i saw a blue screen with the igo crystals on it, and at the bottom right it said INI APP, the rest was cut off, and then the program closed.
everytime i tried to reopen it , my phone told me the last attempt failed and if i wanted to reset all the settings and pois (which i dont even know what they are) to factory, clicking yes, clicking no, nothing gets it working.
i am actually desperate for some help here, this is the last problem i need right now in my life, and if anyone here is willing to help me, it would deeply and greatly appreciated....thank you in advance
has anyone heard of this specifically, or should i just return the igo?
i would try it in a reader on the pc maybe
lol @ subject line, very clever
Hi everyone, need some help here
My TP sometimes unable to open the Write SMS box, even no matter how many time i press the Write New SMS or even using the Reply button. I need to soft reset it before it can really turn back to normal. Can anyone please provide me help in solving the problem? Thanks a lot!
did you install any other lang? if you did, might be the reason
No i didn't install any language, the CE that i installed already registered.
I dont know if this is the right way to ask this question, or the ringt place in the forum. I just know ive always found a lot of answers here before and now ive come to a dead end. Ive had a problem with my samsug sgh-i780 for atleast six months that i cant fix. I try to every once in a while, but just end up extremely frustrated and agitated. So, this time the same thing happend again, but i am willing to try and do something productive instead and vent my anger and problem here instead
The problem with the phone is that it refuses to connect to the internet. But only specific programs on the phone. Most of them connects perfectly, both via GPRS and WIFI. The problem is the programs that are from microsoft. They all promply refuse to acknowledge any connection whatsover to the internet.
I use WM 6.1, its not the shipped OS but i've updated it with samsungs official updating rom. So, the programs that refuses are IE, windows marketplace, windows update,the built-in podcasts and rss-reader program, maybe some others.
However, these programs COMPLETELY REFUSES to connect. Almost INSTANTY an alert window with "no connection avaliable. please change your settings or try again." or something similar pops up. Immedietly. Extremely provocing to me, since I know theres both a working gprs and wi-fi connection that ALL the other programs (opera (3 different versions)), coreplayer, etc can use, and do USE flawlessly all of the time. Gah, even writing about it drives me crazy
So anyways. Ive googled this thoroughly on SEVERAL occasions, ive gone through every single internet setting i've found on this mobile phone and changed it back and forth on several occasions, ive searched and searched this forum several times but ive ended up with nothing to guide me in troubleshooting/fixing this and i feel like my next step is throwing it into the wall. Wich wouldnt really SOLVE the problem... but atleast eradicate it
Long post, my bad, ill try and keep it shorter. Just wanted to write it all out, maybe im leaving out important info, feel free to ask me complete your picture if this with whatever you need to know. Maybe someone of you recognizes this problem immedietly and knows what it is and how to fix it. Any way, im happy to recieve any ideas and suggestions you might have.
Thank you in advance,
Malte
The best thing you can do right now is wait until i bring an SGH-780i from my workplace and go through the steps with you I'll have it by tuesday/wednesday.
(that is, because i can't really think of a reason for this to happen unless microsoft has found a way to block unofficial roms from using their applcations (doubtful)).
Awesome! I like the timing of yours; tuesday is my birthday
Will be waiting

I was using S2U2 as a screen lock application while running Windows Mobile 6.1 on my HTC Touch Pro 2. In the beginning everything worked smoothly, and S2U2 was exactly the program I needed. However, after I while, I started experiencing problems with my text messaging applications. Text messages would not come in, only the screen would wake up. Then, if I unlocked the phone with S2U2, the first stuck text message would come in. Later, as the problem progressed, text messages would not come in even after the unlock. I would have to open any other program, close it, and then the next SMS would come in. And so on. It came to a point where I was going off my mind, and I couldn't figure out where the source of the problem is.
It seemed as it is either a software problem or a system problem. Because of all the problems I decided it's time to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.5. I was confident that this would stabilize everything. Unfortunately, after restoring all programs and settings from a backup program, it was even worse. I was very disappointed. This meant that the problem is with some software, and trying to figure out which one is a major job. But I had no choice. I made another hard reset and started re-installing all programs one by one, while monitoring performance in order to pinpoint the bad guy.
Guess what? I installed everything I had before and it works very fine. The only program I did not install is S2U2. I suspected this one is causing all the trouble, but I had no evidence. Now I do. I need this program desperately, but I'm afraid to re-install it, because I'm sure it will start all the problems again...
Later, I found another similar program (but not free) - Pocket Shield. So I installed this program. Worked nicely, but sure enough, after a day or 2, the same problems started to resurface again!
I guess after all, it must be something in the code that both programs use that clogs up the system.
Right now, I'm totally lost. I desperately need a screen locker because my phone does all kind of weird stuff on its own while in my pocket, but I'm afraid to install any of these programs, as I'm sure it will mess everything up again!!
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks in advance...
Have you ever needed to use ADB at a work PC or a location you could not "install" applications?
Unzip the attached file and click the RunMe.bat
I have tested this pulling logs, pushing/pulling files, flashing recovery, roms, and anything else I could think of.
I tested it on the M8 stock rom 5.0.2 but this is a generic file so it should be fine on most if not all android devices.
The idea came when I was at work and looking for a solution for a problem I had. I could not install anything on my work PC, so this came in handy, the only problem is that it was outdated, or seemed outdated for my needs.
find the zip file here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347791558
This topic has been covered but is very outdated. I only found information from 2011 and 2013. The included information has since been updated by Google. I found it and included it, re-zipped it and now it is here for you to enjoy.
Thanks
to @Kickface, (where I first found this solution) wherever you went and any others who have created a truly portable (not minimal) solution to using ADB without installing anything.

I know this is totally off topic, I'll report myself for it later....
So, I installed the zip file onto my work PC, a DELL Inspiron laptop running Windows 7 professional (I really cannot get too much more info about it now) sorry. My nooby butt just went and downloaded the file not checking the MD5 :crying: Totally a dumb thing a NOOBY would do. It started to get late & I had to get ready to go to work. I know I had the command prompt screen (Black box) running and I then left the computer. 8 hr's later I come home from work and the computer is locked as normal, I to proceed entering Ctrl+Alt+Delete combination as usual & NOTHING (panic setting in)!! I was concerned since it was frozen from something I done, also I didn't want to loose all the work I gathered that night prior (is the very least of my worries now)... I took out the battery to reset the computer, again like a dummy, I started Windows normally ignoring the other "safe mode, etc" options. I click on windows Chrome, NOTHING! Not even an option to open the program/app. Okay, I'm really panicking now WTH did I do??? I knew I did something wrong, so I reset the computer by battery again, put it in "Safe Mode" which did absolutely nothing as I couldn't "open desktop gadgets in safe mode". Now, I restarted the computer from the start menu... Started up completely fine, I have access to everything EXCEPT Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc. anything that is browser related has the administrator shield on the icon. However, I still cannot even click on the icon to run as an administrator even if I had the password!?!?
Is there any possible hope to uninstall that file and just maybe it'll go back to normal??? I cannot re-install Chrome or Internet Explorer due to the darn administrator rights!!!
I've searched to the ends of the earth since last night trying to find a solution, this is my last ditch effort resort for any possible suggestions to point me in the right direction. Luckily my friend was kind enough to lend me his laptop and my phone is in proper working order:angel: If I tell my IT guy what happened, I'll be in huge trouble, going on the 2nd laptop destroyed, 1st time really wasn't my fault, just saying so u don't think I'm continuously reckless.
Any help as always is greatly appreciated! Hoping someone has had this happen maybe:fingers-crossed: and just a slight point in the right direction (link, website, specific thread on forum) would b awesome?? Again, apologies on the "off-topic" content, I don't know what else to do & I feel as though XDA is THE ABSOLUTE BEST forum site for any Android help, apps, devs research, roms, etc. Thx in Advance!!

I can tell you that it's not related to the files because I use them on my work PC all the time. I am working 10 hours days, 6 days a week. So the only time I can do anything out of the ordinary on my phone, it has to be at work.
That being said, have you tried system restore? I'm not sure if that requires admin rights, it might. On another note, tell the IT guy your internet explorer just stopped working, they love that. Because seriously, it's unrelated. The most he will do is uninstall and reinstall IE/Chrome. If that doesn't fix it, a system restore should. If that still does not, there is something off with the settings for internet access (I've seen that before). But if you are saying there is a shield/lock over an icon, that's new to me.
Also, I can install chrome at my work. It usually does not require admin rights, that and Firefox. There are also many portable browsers you can download from another PC and copy the zip file to the laptop, and run the app. Just search portable browser. At least this will help determine if the browsers installed got locked or if there is a network setting being blocked.
Let me know how it goes. This IS a bit off topic, but let's figure out what's wrong publicly so the mods can see there is nothing wrong with the zip I posted and then we can have our posts removed.

Thanks for getting back to me, I appreciate it.
I'm glad to hear that it's not the file bc I cannot uninstall that regardless. We do have crazy blocks on all the computers at my work. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the sensitive information we have (a drug tx center so everyone's personal info is in our database). We can't even update the time on our computers, I have no clue why. I asked him once, he said something about giving that permission would open up another way to bypass security (I can't remember exactly).
This is my laptop, I never even bother bringing into work because I work so much from home. For example my login at the office has updated twice when at home it's still my old login password. The computer is physically in bad shape (it's been used & abused for sure) I'd prefer not to the bring it in for him to see so I plan on waiting to Friday night (IF ALL ELSE FAILS) and txtg him saying I absolutely need to work & see if he will do troubleshoot remote access! I hope that doesn't sound too horrible :-/
As I was typing this I just received an email to restart all workstations due to updates/ changes to the server done this weekend... Hmmmm it could totally be bc of this!!!!! Fingers crossed. I may just have to bring it in let it connect to the local server reset it, and bam good to go If not due to this I can almost guarantee it's the internet settings that I don't have access to!! But the portable browser should work...
I will still try all of your suggestions once I get home this afternoon and report back to you ASAP!!
Luckily I have my friends laptop to borrow & Dell had some good deals on laptops last night so I ordered a really nice one since I really need a personal computer again. Which I will also get an expense check for (bonus)!! But, won't arrive until 3/16. Until then I do have access to extra pc's here I could always swap it out, but I don't want to be scrutinized or punished for being sneaky, it's really not my character...
Again, I appreciate your input. Also, totally agreed on the "off-topic resolution" first and then delete our posts...
Thanks Again!
Yeah, I cannot get through the security on it.
When I look at the properties or try to repair Chrome or IE, it has an incorrect path, totally crazy looking.
\\localhost\C$\os(c\Users\mludford.....
I'm currently downloading a zip for a standalone browser. Hopefully that'll work...
This thread in general is totally crazy too, it looks like I replied like 3 or 4 times, I DID NOT :/ I tried twice & it told me that I didn't have access to the post, with a grey button over my original post you replied to, saying "Spoiler"!?! Very strange....

Needless to say it's not the settings or anything with the computer as I took it into work for it to "register" & update to the network settings... Nothing! So, I'm trying the above to see if I can't get around it. Thanks Again
