Complete newbie....

How do I get to find this folder (HKLM/Software...) ?

Can I still reset the phone to factory default after putting in some cab files?

regards Helle (very new to this)
[HD2 General] Archer:
HKLM (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE) is not a folder. It is a root key in the registry , which is basically a common store for windows and windows application where they keep some settings and other various information (though this does not mean that any setting you can change on your phone is held in the registry. Some are. Some aren't.)

You need a registry editor to edit the registry. The two most commonly recommended are Resco (you need Resco Explorer + the registry add-on), and Total Commander. Either work fine, but Resco is not free.

In answer to your second question, yes, you can factor reset the phone after installing cab files and it will get rid of them (if they were installed on the device, not the storage card). Depending on what you've installed, you may be able to get rid of them with a simple "remove programs" from the settings. Some mods don't uninstall, so a hard reset is a good way to get rid of them. Just be aware that a hard reset obviously means that you'll need to set up your phone from scratch again, so you'll probably want a backup before you do it.

Hope this helps mate :)
[HD2 General] adell_:
You can also use PHM RegEdit to edit the registry.
[HD2 General] HelleM:
thanks for your fast reply...

I did look at Rescos, but also at Soti's (which looks pretty cool)

Would Soti's be a good buy?
[HD2 General] MichelDiamond:
I think a free registry editor for winmo is more than enough.

TotalCommander for copy and a remote Regedit additional - also free - and you don't need more for your purposes.

okay... buying a product doesn't really bother me that much, I mean it's not like a million dollars, and I can do it from my PC (I guess I thought it would be easier to write etc. :o

This is just a proposal for developers.

In the past (2003) I had a Symbian UIQ touchscreen smartphone and I used a great peace of software on it, SeeThru keyboard from Symbitz, a finger friendly transparent virtual keybord.

Link: ---

I googled for a WM similar software but I only found a software for Windows called InScribe from Iliumsoft.

Link: ---

Smarphone OS are going to be more and more finger friendly and a software like SeeThru could have a great market. I would pay for it.

[Touch HD General] Nighthawk2050:
All,

I have had issues with my factory (1.14) ROM for my HTC Touch which resulted in the points outlined below. I thus decided to upgrade to the new official ROM (Orange HTC Touch HD ROM Upgrade 1.59.61.2) in the hope it would sort it out. However, it does not - symptom indicator is in the screen shots below.

I cannot find any threads on this matter, unless I am missing something (?), so I would appreciate some help from members here as I have seen occure in the past on my old Trinity model as well so it must be WM6 related and not ROM related.

1) I just upgraded my 1.14 ROM to the new ROM version and within 2 months I had trouble with it corrupting the internal MicroSD card.

This resulted in a format and reinstall of all data.

2) The Phone ROM seems to get regular corruptions on the display after a period of time where the Task Manager (upper right - see screen shots) has missing icons.

The resulting workaround is a reboot.

3) Same corruption issue causes the Wireless Internet to not work correctly.

The workaround is a reboot.

4) Sometimes during calls the phone will drop the call for no reason and it is found the same corruption has occured.

I never had such extensive issues with 1.14 except the minor corruption of the Task Manager so am very annoyed. Anyone else had this? By the way all data was backed up before any upgrade. The ROM worked for 2 months before it corrupted as above.
[Touch HD General] veehexx:
first up, i dont know about the data loss.

maybe rubbing salt into the wound, but they do say to ensure all data is backed up before flashing any device (be it pc, phone, or anything else).

did you flash with SD card removed?

the other faults sound like you need to perform a hard-reset.

i tend todo this twice, immediately after each other.

Hi. You could use AEBPlus (just google it) and remap the center button. I tried it and it works just fine (not only for the center button, but all hardware buttons can be remapped on any WinMO device...cool app :D ). The downside is that the app uses 15-20 % of your RAM :(

Hope this helps!
[HD2 General] SreePillai:
i'v noticed a few issues..maybe some one can shed more light on this.

1) i get this message on startup that says 'error has occurred with services.exe', has happened ones so far.

2) the "<< >>" keys on the side of my slide button goes missing every so often.

3) on the notification page the close tab some times does not appear as a button, it's just there and works fine when i touch it.

4) the phone seem to go on speaker for no apparent reason and i cant switch it back from the menu tab. soft reset is the only way to sort this out, has happened twice to me now in abt a month.

any and all help will be appreciated.
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
What rom are you running at the moment?

[HD2 General] SreePillai:
sorry abt the delay...i'm using 1.48.405.2
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
I was on the same ROM as you and had no problems. I would suggest the following:

Backup your data using eg Sprite backup, then hard reset the phone so the ROM loads back in from scratch.

Keep the number of applications you load back up to a minimum and see whether the problems reoccur. If they don't you should be good but if they return then post up here again and we can see how else to help.

Incidentally which network did you buy your phone from or is it sim free?

[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
Hi guys,

Everytime i start up my phone i get a services.exe error report. I googled the problem and found that on a pc this is normally a malware virus!:eek:

Will this be the case for my phone? Do i have a virus?

If so how do i get rid of it, please help!:confused:
[HD2 General] SreePillai:
i've had the same issue mate...dont know how bad it act. is but obv we dont want any virus on the system...sorry to say this mate but i'm act. kinda glad that i'm not the only one with this problem :)..guess misery does like company..lol
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
sorry but im glad im not the only one too lol dont no how bad it is either but i dont want pesonal details, crad details etc took from my phone:mad:

can anyone help us?
[HD2 General] Archer:
I can confirm that none of you have a virus. Don't read a virus report for a PC and think it's the same on windows mobile. They're VERY different beasts.

There's very few viruses out there that affect WM, in relation to PCs.

If it makes you feel better, there is AV software out there. Uncle Googles can help you get that.

You've got a software problem. It's probably something that you installed that caused a problem, or something you uninstalled but it didn't uninstall correctly.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
viruses on mobiles are incredibly rare, almost always only seen as proof of concept. if the phone is working fine its pretty safe to just turn off error reporting and forget about it. (I always do, and never give it a second thought)

if you really want to hunt down the culprit try removing programs you have added one at a time till it stops.
[HD2 General] SreePillai:
thanks guys...thats a big relief..i'm brand new to WM hence the apprehensions...i do have a 'F-secure' AV carried it on when i dumped my N96 :).
[HD2 General] CHIP STAXMAN:
I've had the services.exe error a few times. But only get it when sending texts. The text still sends, so don't really know what it's moaning about.

I'm only running apps that came with the phone and also HTC official hotfixes. No deep tinkering yet for me.

I think its related to using the animated weather wallpaper, which I've since turned off and not got the error since.
[HD2 General] de Wolfe:
Got it also everytime when I start up my phone. Doesn't seem to affect the performance of it, services.exe runs on normally in the background. But it is kinda annoying...

EDIT: To "solve" it I just switched off the error reporting in Settings, System. I seemed to have been blind, I think... :D
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
thanks alot guys, really appreciate the replies,

im glad to here it isnt a virus as i had personal details stored on phone,

im not to bothered about the error reporting so ill probably just turn it off

once again many thanks
[HD2 General] rorytmeadows:
It could be an app that you installed, as I'm noticing it too sometimes. I more often notice it when after installing, it prompts me to reset my device.

I've had it go away for good after uninstalling the problem app.
[HD2 General] Tuffy11:
Hi -

I've noticed a bit of a weird problem with certain contacts. I sent a couple of text messages through my contact list but when the replies came in the contact names didn't show up just the number did, and for one it just said 'un named'.

Does anyone know how to fix it? The numbers were exactly the same as in the contact list.

Could it be this app? Supposedly it has a free play mode. :)

Search for "Panoramic Guitar Suite" on any search engine.

Update: I saw an updated commercial last night, and although the app looks a little different than Panoramic Guitar Suite, it still looked like a guitar app that teaches chords.

How can we make the Nexus One experience even better in our app?

We're a mapping company, so support for large images is a must, and Nexus One and Droid have it but we're stuck supporting all the low-res devices. What's the killer indoor mapping experience for the user? We'll keep digging at Point Inside dot com.

[Nexus One General] tiwenzo:
G1 User

I've been playing with this app on a G1 as well as someone else's Droid and the G1 is clearly handicapping the application. Takes forever to even start the app vs. the Droid or even what I can imagine the Nexus One to do. 6 more months until my contract is up...
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
Amusement parks would be a good idea, IMHO, as well.

[Nexus One General] gpscaddy:
Android Indoor Maps API

OK, so Airport maps and Amusement Parks it is. Both have bothered me over the years. We could easily implement those. I should have made amusement parks a choice in the survey. Thanks for the feedback. Airports are on their way. Who else wants to use indoor maps through our API? Surely we're not going to be the best app to show off indoor maps.

Now...we need to prioritize these.

Latest Update for Mall Maps Released

This release has mall events and promotions. If we decide to do airports and theme-parks...then what do we show for "more content" like events and promotions in the mall???

Please take the survey as it ends in a week.

We did some optimization...but I'm not sure it will help some of the slower G1's out there.
[Nexus One General] pjcforpres:
Couple things, not sure where all you are posting this besides here, but you might get more response if you post in the "App" sub-threads, as well there is a general Android development section at the top of the main forum list with an app sub-forum there as well...

Anyways, for Amusement parks, for more content, I would say have a "quick bathroom finder" option... "remember where I parked" option... and perhaps a "prices" option and a "closed ride" option...

How about not making it look like an iPhone app?

[Nexus One General] dallastx:
Running 720kps on 3g and "fetch this place" is taking way to long to load on the nexus. Great app but if i am already at the mall, it doesn't load fast enough.

And once its loading its no way to cancel, i have to kill the app.
[Nexus One General] gpscaddy:
Reply to pjcforpres, ScaredyCat & dallastx

@pjcforpres - Thanks for the tip. Yep...should have posted there. I don't see a way to transfer this thread to that "app sub thread" now, but will in the future. This doesn't belong under Nexus despite that being our best platform.

@ScaredyCat - Hmmm...we did several things different to accentuate Android instead of our iPhone app. In fact we don't believe in true parity between the two apps since each platform has it's advantage. Next release will have "search" and you'll be able to pull up a store's details when tapping on the map. Maybe the "search" will set it more apart from it's iPhone sibling. I'm open to suggestions if you have any. Thanks by the way.

@dallastx - Our average venue size for all the map images, spatial data and promotions/events content is ~900K so that is what's taking 15-30 seconds. We went with a full download container so you could reference the map faster when in the app (and make it available offline if you're on the plane in "airplane mode". Perhaps an "on demand" download strategy would have been better. I hate apps that query a web service for darn thing...but see the value.
[Nexus One General] britoso:
Maybe there could be an option to plan a trip when at home so it could download the needed maps faster. I'm on EDGE so it would help me greatly.

Is there good GPS reception inside large malls? (multi story)
[Nexus One General] apeironer:
Just downloaded the app but the first thing I noticed was the lack of multi touch. And all the maps I have seen seem to be a bit low-res.
[Nexus One General] detox702:
Wow, this app is better than I expected. Only suggestion, can you make the maps scroll more fluidly? As it is they seem kinda clunky when you scroll and a flick doesn't move the map like you'd expect it to. This will definitely stay on my phone, though.
[Nexus One General] gpscaddy:
Reply to britoso, apeironer, detox702

It sounds like we're onto the right venues. So thanks to everyone that took the poll.

@detox702 - Thanks for the praise. Great objective feedback. We agree, and will be working on the zoom/pan/scroll this week and next.

@apeironer - Yeah...multi-touch would be cool. We're excited that Nexus and others are heading in that direction. It's a game changer.

@britso - Good idea on trip planning (especially for airports). We don't have great GPS inside the mall...and it's platform dependent (i.e. Droid on VZW vs. Nexus on T-Mobile). We don't use the Skyhook SDK yet.

Thanks again everyone!
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
Hi guys,

I dont know if this has already been discussed or if anybody has had the same problem,

The proximity sensor that is supposed to turn off the display while in call only works when i make a call. If i am receiving a call then the display stays on and i end up ending the call accidently will my cheek.

I was wondering if there is a fix or app to sort this out. I am looking for something that purely sorts this problem out and dont really want any other features etc.

Many thanks,

Loz
[HD2 General] dadaniel:
I cannot replicate this problem. The sensor on my HD2 works perfectly on incoming calls.
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
no offences but i am sort of hoping others have this problem so im not the only one lol strength in numbers and all that...

can anyone relate to the problem i have, i have searched the settings time amd time again looking for proximity settings to see if it has been disable or something

please help!
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
hi guys,

i am still having problems with the proximity sensor when i receive a call, can anyone help????????

thanks
[HD2 General] emigrating:
There has been a few posts like this in the past, but AFAIK no-one has posted a solution or reason for it happening. I've never had any problems with the proximity sensor on my handset so can't help any either, but I would guess it has something to do with using a screen-protector or possibly the screen being full of smudges right around the sensor.
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
thanks for the reply

i dont think it is the screen protector im using because it works whenever i make a call, its just when receiving a call it doesnt turn off the display!:confused:

does anyone no if there is a fix or reg edit i could do to get it working again?????
[HD2 General] kochavy:
Hello,

I have the same bug and I post it yesterday, the screen off when I make a call and stay on when I am getting a call.

My Rom is 1.48.405 from UK, and I have screen protection from HTC with small hole on the sensors.

also when I making a call the screen off but need to turn on when you take the phone far from your head, sometimes it is heppens but sometimes not.

[HD2 General] kochavy:
When I bought the phone it was 1.43.405 and I upgraded it to 1.48.405.

maybe this is the problem!!

kochavy
[HD2 General] vi_rus:
just a innocent fact.

I had noticed that when starting to make a phone call the prox. sensor turns off the display but when the connection is made (the fuzzy noise and the first beep) the displays turns on. To reactivate the prox. sens i have to move the phone from my ear and then approach it again (please forgive my bad english) and the display turn off as designed. This issue can lead to the idea that the sensor is broken or malfunction.

I hope it helped
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
yeah it sounds the exact same problem. i have the exact same rom (1.48.405 from uk) and screen protector from htc. startin to become a big problem coz i keep ending calls accidently

hopefully can fine a solution
[HD2 General] kochavy:
Where did you buy it? mine from Israel.
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
thanks for the info.

when i make a call the screen turns off straight the way before i have even put the phone to my ear, and to turn the display on i have to press a hard key:confused:

i am startin to think it is a proxomity sensor malfunction so hoping for some kind of fix
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
i got mind from the uk, did you have the problem before you upgraded rom?
[HD2 General] kochavy:
How do you turn it off? what is hard key?

what are you doing when you get a call?

kochavy
[HD2 General] kochavy:
I dont know I just bought it and upgrade the same day.
[HD2 General] kochavy:
Did you send mail to HTC?, I did but thay never send me mail back
[HD2 General] bluearmyb:
i dont no it does it automatically but not using the prox sensor, i usually press the back key to turn it back on but the it stays on:confused:

there is nothin i can do when i get a call the display always stays on

HTC havent got back to me so i was hoing some one on here would no wat to do!

may someone can help us out?
[HD2 General] kochavy:
I will wait for Rom 1.66

Facebook app

web Browser

Warning:

Please do a nandroid backup before you attempt anything.

Nobody is responsible if you brick or damage your phone

Please contribute to this cause and approach Ayman for contribution/credits/thanks I am only a messenger.

Ok this is how it is accomplished.

Wipe Phone and Flash CKdroid 1.5 ROM (Kagu should also work but not tested maybe some one can confirm)

After Flashing the ROM proceed to the download page in Ayman Project ( http://code.google.com/p/arabicandroid/ ) and click downloads.

Download " update_ar2_n1_corrSkia.zip " and flash it

You guys can also use morelocale 2 (in the market to change the region to Arabic) and anysfotkeyboard to type Arabic.

That’s it. I will be happy to help if you guys need it Please provide feedback to help other members & Ayman out.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
Awesome!!

I tried extracting the libraries from his previous ROM and put it in Espresso/Hybrid and signed it .. didn't work !!

I think SenseUI (even Espresso's SenseUI) needs HTC modified libraries !!

Anyway, I'll try making a SenseUI ROM with these libraries.. or with Launcher2 ;)

but let me finish finals first :S
