Ever since upgrading to WM6, I have lost the ability to turn cold boot my phone without first removing the SD card. If I have the SD card inserted, I get rebooting loops. Can I fix this?
yep this has been solved
It has????
What's the solution????
I'm pretty sure it's been fixed for the official HTC release of WM6, but not positive. The other way to fix it would be to use SKTools Lite to clear the duplicates out of the notification queue and then remove the Microsoft Live service from the registry. You'll lose the Microsoft Live messenger, but you'll gain your phone back
yep merwin has written the solution in detail in 2 other threads, just search for boot loop in the excalibur forum.
Sure enough, just delete this:
HKLM\Services\Windows Live
And now I am booting fine!
I still get the little Text message about the wrong number, but I can live with that.

Um... I can check it out and see what I can do about it and I will get back to you asap.
There is a cab called Mailstorage that will save internet temp,history,and cookies and save emails to storage card. I found it on txcaesar.net in the downloads section.

Na what is this application anyways, give it a try and see if it works. Did you have some specific questions on it or what?
I downloaded the app, but it errors during the install. I was just wondering if anyone else had this app working before I spend time trying to resolve the issue.

What errors are you getting when installing it.
I just tried it again, and it said it installed successfully, but was made for a previous version of windows.
Now I'm not sure what it did with the install. can't find the installed app, or a way to configure it.
Ummm would it be under java program. Or just browse under accessories possibly.
I don't see the app anywhere, but after rebooting, I notice my IE setting are pointing cookies, etc... to the storage card. Something's working. Not sure how to check for e-mails going to the storage card?
There is a Pocket IE folder on my storage card with the above referenced folders

I cant take it because need register in these site.
It's says made for previous version when you install, but works good on my 6.1 blackjack. It moves pie to storage and downloaded email/attachments to storage. It's not necessary to run a mailstorage program because the cab takes care of the changes.
no need for all that in 6.1. go into Settings/IE Settings/Temporary File Path and change the IE Cache Path
Hello all, I have an Dash with a broken screen so I can't see anything. Is there a way I can do a hard reset via computer or maybe some sequence of keys on the handset. I really need to get my contacts & data off of the phone before I return it. Thanks in advance for any help

You could check this worked by conecting via async and checking folders, you will tell because all will be removed, old programs etc.
Thanks that's good info. But the only thing is I can't see the screen to follow the on screen prompts. The screen shows nothing but what looks to be black & white ink

Follow it to a t and even without the screen you should be able to do it?
I am guessin you can still hook up to computer?
Could do with some help here from other users, could lil just delete the .pim via async and it would delete contacts?
Where are messages stored? So they can be deleted....
Re Deleting all info
Hook up via async and delete these cemail.vol will delete the the mms and sms
Contacts, Calendar are all stored in a database file called PIM.VOL that in the root directory.

Ok now where would I find these files once I hook up to pc via async?
well its not going to work..here is the issues. the CEMAIL.vol file is in use basically whenever the phone is on. so you cant just copy or delete it or you get an error and it fails. i have been looking around a bit and havent found an excalibur specific solution this this. give me a few minutes to play around
and you will see the files in the root directory..root directory is where you will see program files, storage card, windows etc.. when you connect via activesync and browse to it with explorer..scroll down and you will see the files.
make sure you have your pc set to show hidden and system files your you wont see some things..
Ok I'll wait on the response & b sure to have pc show hidden files. I also want to thank U guys 4 ur help thus far

You know how the phone async explorer integrates with explorer on comp does this not mean you could use an unlocker and unlock the file in question then delete? Long shot.
I have an unlocker to which i could attach if any use?

its a sharing violation because that files is in use.
here is the problem. if we can go into the registry and change the path for the mms/sms and reboot...it will create a blank .vol file in the new path that was created in the registry ...therefore freeing the one that we need to delete.
or so thats my theory...let me install pim back up and back my stuff up...i have some texts i need so i cant just go deleting just yet.
yes i have yahoo IM ([email protected])
What IM do U have?
Thanks guys 4 all of your help. I finally got it to reset holding the 2 soft keys & the send key. Thanx again

Cool glad you got it sorted, knew you would be able to reset blind
Was there any fix for the cemail, though? I saved my cemail.vol before a hard reset, and would like to restore it now, but i always get a sharing violation error.

Remove "messaging" from the Today screen so that the file is not in use, and restart. It should now be deletable.
Hi, Hope you can help, I upgraded the ROM on my dash and it kept freezing and would not connect to active sync. I reset it as it said here but it is still the same it appearts to be frozen and none of the keys work, not even the power button.
Any ideas please?
Is there a way to get MSN Messenger onto my phone for free or is it a purchase only? I found an old version of Messenger for pocket pc 2002 ( it was via a thread at this board ) which after installation on my phone showed the MSN icon but didn't do anything. There was some update file which I needed as well to make it work but microsoft had deleted it. I'm just looking for messenger the same as it is on my pc, with standard smileys, etc, not one of those messenger clones. Thanks.

Thanks man. Unfortunately, after it goes through the process of trying to install the .CAB file on my phone, it says installation unsuccessful. Not sure why tbh. On their error screen, they say it could be insufficient memory, device may not support it, or that my carrier (T-Mobile) may not allow it. As it installs, it doesn't give me an option to install to either the device or my storage card. Any suggestions?

Excellent, I got it working! I tried out duttythroy's 1.80mb cab file and it worked. Well actually, it said successful install but there was nothing to find of the program anywhere on my device except in remove programs. So I decided to look in my device/windows folder, and all the WLM files were in there. I clicked on the WLMMessenger.exe and it went through the set up process, merging contacts and signing me in. Thank you JamminJaguar and duttythroy.
No problem, now buy my Nike.

Heh
Actually, I ended up installing this, uninstalling it and reinstalling it, because I did something wrong with the setup. On the first install, messenger, windows live services and and search bar all showed up on my phones desktop which was great. This time, it's not showing at all for some reason. Maybe because on the second install I decided to untick the search bar and services? So I've copied the WLMMessenger.exe from the windows folder and pasted it into my device/program files folder and that works.

im not and idiot or a noob, im tyring to post legitimate feedback on an android rom i am currently using but i need 10 posts so here is one more, thanks for this stupid rule! 8
I have been using Droid ROMS, MODS and kernels since the G1.
Is there any way for the SMS counter to go back to 0 when viewing several messages from one sender? Other wise I have to keep going back and opening for the counter to tick down.
On my 6800 I upgraded to the last DCD rom and it did the same. Only for that reason did I go back to his previous rom. This drives me nuts. The worst part is I recieved 15 angry texts from my ex wife. Who the heck wants to open that up 15 times for it to clear?
just go to the threaded messages & use the arrow keys to go select each & every one of them & it'll set the counter right. hope that makes sense.
I found a better fix. This adds "Mark all messages read"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379265
Is there still not a cab/real fix for this? I know that it is a problem with the version of WM that it shipped with but this is kind of ridiculous and Sprint/Whoever can't expect us to deal with this or install a cab that "makes it easier"
All other version of WM that i've ever used have never had this problem before and it is quite annoying if you stay in a text message for a while and then go out and have to click through 100 messages... Yes I've already installed the cab that adds "Mark all as read" but its still annoying.
Cheers

For those that backup on a regular using sprite etc u have to add "htmlnote.dll" & "HTMLNOTE.DLL" to the exclude list other wise the backup will fail.

I'm using Sprite Backup 6.5 and it works just fine without adding it to the exclusion list.
can someone please tell me what i need and what to do to install this!
I have this problem almost everytime I get a text. Its sooooo annoying!!
come on, all I need to do is install it. I copy it over to my tp2 and it doesn't show up. I installed total commander like someone said but all that did was let me see it. It has an error when I click on it.
You need to move the file and replace the old one, not try to open it. Try deleting the old one and then moving the new one in its place.
Delete the old what? And move it where? And once it's moved do I have to install something or does it just fix it by being there?
I'm not trying to be a jerk but if you read all the posts in this forum topic you would know what to do. I'll write out instructions for you however.
1. First, download this DLL
HTML NOTE DLL
2. Extract the file onto your desktop and then transfer it over to your phone via activesync, SD card, bluetooth, etc.
3. Wherever the file was copied to (be in in the root folder of the storage card or any other place, fire up Total Commander/Resco File Explorer and copy/move the "htmlnote.dll" over to /Windows folder. which is in the root folder of 'My Device'
*You will know that you are copying/moving it to the right location if you get a message stating that you would be overwriting the current file. If you do NOT get this message than you are either putting the modified "htmlnote.dll" in the wrong spot or your already deleted it from /Windows.
If you are still having further issues, please PM me and we will work this out.
Cheers
thank you, when I moved it over I didn't get a overwrite message but eversince I put that file in there I haven't had the problem. Slowly my phone is becoming more useable and less annoying
Thank you for the information, I have found this particular bug to be exceedingly annoying. I followed all the given instructions, but when i try to copy/move the file from my storage card, and get prompted to overwrite the existing file, Total Commander returns an error 'Cannot copy or move file!'
I had already tried this a few times, without any issue, and then soft reset my Sprint TP2. Since i still had the single unread sms bubble, i tried it again and got the error above.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance...
UPDATE:
I renamed the original to '000original' and was able to copy over the new .dll. However, after a soft reset, the problem still exists.
OK, found this thread and installed the cab. Worked like a charm...
Looks like i can't post links yet, so just search for FixUnreadCount.zip and that does the trick.
FINALLY
Thanks you for finding this .. ive spent the last week searching through files on my tp2 trying to find the right one .
hi,
i have try to boot android to my touch pro2, and seem like every thing work fine. anyhow, i found the mic doesnt work during i make a call or i answer a call. i can hear the voice from the other party, howerer they couldnt hear me.
did anyone have the same problem like me?
how did you solve it? can you share with me??
thanks for kind assists.....
best regards
garf
Garf's the name eh? Interesting name indeed...
I swear this problem has been licked. However, on the speakerphone front that does not work yet. There's a patch, but it hasn't been commited yet. However, 'normal' phone calls (no speakerphone) the mic should work just fine.
Please make sure your build is COMPLETELY up to date.
System image (system.ext2), kernel & modules (zImage/modulesxxxxxx.tar.gz), and rootfs (rootfs.img).

If you're asking, if an app installed from the market, yes it can be installed on the sd card. Click settings on the bottom right and choose "sd card"
did u mean "sd card and phone storage"?
i did enter to the menu, but what to do next? because i didnt see any option for me to choose to install the application....

WTF are you talking about...? Everything is already on the SD card, installing it on the SD card does no good. Android is on the SD, that's all it knows. All data is stored there as well, any user apps/changes you make are in the data.img... Which is on the SD.
