Hi,
I am using the O2 rom on my Orbit. I am having an issue whereby 24 hours after soft reset I am down to 2 mb program RAM.
I am only running OxiosHibernate, Phoneweaver, batterystatus, TodayAgenda, pTravelAlarm and WMLive 6 e-mail (as items arrive).
Leaving the phone on overnight, I found that the following morning it had dropped from 13mb to 8 - without doing anything!
I have tried using x-button and setting apps to close, but this didn't help at all so I removed it. I also temporarily tried removing TodayAgenda, but this didn't help either so I reinstalled it.
Does anyone else have a similar issue?
Thanks
Dae
I think I may have tracked this down to Windows Live.
I ran the phone all day yesterday with Windows Live set to manual, instead of "when items arrive". The memory hardly dropped at all.
Not sure how to fix it, but at least I now know who is responsible.
If you have memory left, try installing Memmaid. A simple Memmaid Quickclean should resolve your problem I think.
I definitely know the cause.
Windows Live mobile on "as items arrive" - from 20mb to 2mb in 16 hours.
Windows Live mobile on "manual" - from 20mb to 16mb in 4 days!
Just don't know how to cure it! I don't like having to manually sync to get mail.
tweak the reg to store emails on your storage card.
phm regedit is a good tool for that.
you can find the edit in the wiki.

I have had a look around the wiki, but can't find the registry hack that you are referring to. Could you point me in the correct direction.
Just a point to note - it is the Program RAM which is depleating, not storage RAM. Rebooting takes it back up to full available. Deleting e-mails doesn't bring back any program RAM (which I would expect is correct, as I assume they are stored in the storage RAM).
Thanks

here is the edit you need to change the storage:
Change the location of email and attachments
When reading and sending email in Pocket Outlook, emails and their attachments are saved in the device's internal storage by default. You can change this location to, for example, your Storage Card:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MAPI\PropertyPath = "\Storage Card\Mail" (REG_SZ string, no quotes) HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MAPI\AttachPath = "\Storage Card\Mail\Attachments" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
To return to the original location:
Just simply delete these Registry settings (since neither is included by default).
If it is the Program RAM that you are having trouble with... you should try uninstalling WLM and install another copy of it.
Try this: http://wmblack.info/addons/

Hi
Can anyone tell me how to change the default locations for things such as pictures, album, emails etc, I want it to be on my Storage Card
Thanks
Tim
if you can it's in the registry you can access that using total commander
but it's not always a good idea since you can pull the sd card
and prgrams get mighty upset if their storage is pulled
also sd cards are disabled while the device is off so
ring tones and other storage that programs may have to access while running in the background while the device is off would fail
Registry
I have downloaded a registry tool, but what is the key for these settings?
Tim
i dont know
you can try to search this forum
or
you can try to surf the registry and look for something which fit
Has anyone figured out how to save email to the Storage Card in WM6? This worked in WM5:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MAPI
AttachPath=\Storage Card\Inbox\Attachments
PropertyPath=\Storage Card\Inbox
...but doesn't work in WM6
HKLM->system->Inbox->Settings
click values
menu->new value->string
you are going to create 2 new values here the first is
value name PropertyPath
value Data \Storage Card\Mail
the second will be
value name AttachPath
value data \Storage Card\Mail\Attachments
reset you phone and you should only have the Mail folder along with the attachments folder in mail folder on your storage card
NOTE some say it may create a storage card 2 folder and some issues i have NOT yet Have had any issues
check it out
Thanks
this was a HUGE help
Thanks guys this works great.
Didnt work.
Didn't work here. Does someone have a registry import or a cab file for this?
when you are finished laughing at me, can someone please tell me where the \ is located on the keypad. I've been staring at it for 10 minutes and can't locate it.

Press the SYM/Camera button (to the right of the SPACE bar) when typing, and it'll pull up several symbols to choose from. The "\" symbol should be in there.
Thanks... Sorry for being a moron. Funny that the forward slash is on the key pad, but not the back slash. After all, this is windows, not unix.
I just used http://mobile.surrealnetworks.com/DashApps.htm IE Mail and Storage http://mobile.surrealnetworks.com/SDA applications/SurrealNetworks IE & Mail SD Storage.cab

Does it work also for SMS?
And what about the existing ones?
Messaging App not opening
Hello,
I hope someone can help me with this. I have been using this Email to Storage Card app for a while, and I have experienced the "Storage Card2" problem that some people have reported. The issue I'm facing at the moment is that nothing happens when I click on "Messaging" or in the area that tells me how many messages I have. (Since this started, I haven't been receiving e-mails either.)
Is there a fix for this issue, or should I go through the dreaded hard reset? I'm having other issues which would lead me to think a hard reset is the answer, but I feel it's a big headache. I will have to backup the whole device and make sure my contacts and calendars sync, and then reload everything.
Is there a way to backup my wifi settings?
Thanks in advance for some suggestions,
Ram
Does anyone know how to uninstall this? When i try to do it on the phone or over Activesync I get a warning message that it could not remove all of the program and ultimately the entire program is still installed. It takes up too much room for what it does (and I think there's a battery issue with it as well) Thanks

Try using the Uninstall application of this program: http://www.dinarsoft.com/memmaid/ Once the program is uninstalled, just delete the remaining folders and then run the Quick Clean and that should remove all remnants of the Uninstalled program.
Thanks. It helped to remove mobitv and xmradio which were entirely useless to me and took up a lot of room. However, when I tried to uninstall memmaid it left a few bits behind - there are folders remaining in the program directory... in fact the MobiTv icon still exists in my program directory leading me to beleive that it's just deleting a folder and not removing the program from my reigstry, etc. It's a start though. Thanks again
Re: uninstall
This may be a silly question, but was VC cooked into the rom originally or did you install it yourself? If it was cooked in you will not be able to remove it. (As is true for any cooked in application.)
Best wishes,

Quick question; when using MemMaid, did you use the Quick Clean with all items checked? by default not all are checked.
Dead shortcuts
Dead Registry
Bad uninstall (files)
Bad Uninstall (Registry)
These are just a few items I would make sure are checked..
Thanks for the help guys. It was not part of a cooked rom and after checking the boxes on memmaid and rebooting a few times VC is gone (and 5 megs are free). After uninstalling memmaid (it's 900k - I can't keep that around ) it just left an empty folder called "Handyswitch actions" that I'm just going to manually delete. Thanks for the help. I was this close to deciding between keeping Skyfire and outlook

Sorry, during install of MemMaid you could of unchecked the handyswitcher and whatever extras you didn't need and they wouldn't have installed. Glad to see you has some success though.

You can't install MS VC to storage card and have it work correctly unfortunatly.
I've had same issue whilst installing MSVC to storage card and had tp install it to phone. I also had same problem trying to uninstall it. Luckily I wanted to upgrad my ROM which solved the problem
As I've been using my phone I learned there's a new glitch - if I use autocomplete to fill in text or complete an email address, etc it crashes my phone (I think pasting text does too). This didn't happen a day ago so I think there's a connection to the uninstallation of VC. I've reset it 5 times and it's always the same result. The screen becomes nonresponsive, switching to landscape mode takes about 45 seconds and doesn't solve anything and both the onscreen keyboard (Happy Tapping) and the hard keyboard fail to function. If I wait it out I can get the start menu to drop down and get to the Today screen but navigation is still brutally slow there and the email sits. I Use o2plus and it shows apps are running but doesn't state them (it's pOutlook that is frozen). Any ideas? I wish PPC had 'last good state' like Windows... thanks again
I have VC on my memory card and have no problem... Dont know why you have though.

Internet & MMS not working, after Tmobile settings set properly(?) (Tzones), RegEdit?
I used a cab file called "tmobyjoe599" to set my internet settings on my 8525 flashed with Faria's 6.1.
I am able to get to google, but when going to any site like m.myspace.com, etc, it locks on "connecting..." and the circle freezes. I can close the IE app, but then the OS gets sloow, and it doesn't ever end the IE task when I attempt to. Short of a soft reset, the device gets frozen.
When sending an MMS message, it gives me a sending envelope icon with an arrow, showing it's leaving, with a progress meter that gets to 95% then stops. Never goes past that.
I was messing with some Regedit keys for the server for the weather app and may have messed something up that way. Is there a way to reset these settings short of a Hard Reset?
Is there a valid cab file that will set the Tzones $5.99 plan internet & mms settings for WM6.1 for an 8525? I see settings all over this site and others, but none seem to be in the right places/settings menus as my load?
Much appreciated... I read this forum constantly, but hardly ever post.
JT
Yeah. I have the cab for the 5.99 and the 29.99.
The 39.99 never worked for me so I don't use it anymore. The 29.29 version works perfectly for me. I like the fact they make the allowed mms size larger.
Here you are. Enjoy.
Oh yeah. In the future you probably want to do a search and it will show. I'm sure you'll get that response from many a veteran around here.
Please note, I have already used the tmobyjoe599.cab file (I have it on my storage card), and even after a hard reset, after setting this cab, this is when I experience the lockup issues. Running this .cab doesn't reset the registry server settings, does it?

I don't know. You may be forced to either do a hard reset or reflash your rom.
Use Pim Backup 2.8 to back up all your data and do a hard reset. Then rerun the settings cab of your choice and see what happens.
Your registry changes may be the problem.
did you use advanced config or any other app to change the IE cache/cookies location to your SD card? I have seen your exact symptoms caused by this.. try setting them back to the default location
Did PIMbackup. I'll ck advancedconfig program to make sure I didn't change anything in there... Been in there a few times, not sure if I did.
After that, if it's still not resolved I will hard reset, then do the tmobyjoe599 cab, and see if it works and report back.
I checked Locations tab of advancedconfig and the Default storage location for downloads, ie cache location, ie cookies location and ie history location were all pointed to sd card. I reset those to device, and will ck shortly.
Internet works now you guys rock.
hummm i need step by step i guess
I downloaded the cab file for my t-zones, and it worked..only problem was that its slow and certain web sites cant be shown, mainly web sites with a password like gmail and a few others, how do I fix this?
Does there exist a utility that would allow one to export the T-mobile connections settings registry key(s), such that they could be imported into Kavana/Rickywats/NRG's ROMs after flashing? It would be a lot easier than having to go manually recreate the connections each time.
Ditto the My Faves settings, numbers, icons, etc that could be saved off and then flashed in the My Five app.
Just a thought.
-Rick
I believe you are looking for total commander.
Total Commander, eh? I'll look into that, thanks.
After the last time I flashed the TMOB official ROM, everything has been running so fast and smooth (except for a continual reboot loop problem) that I don't want to take a chance of losing the settings when I flash again.
Thanks for your input.

1. SKTools does a much better job then Total Commander
2. Reboot loop is usually due to Memory Card. Either you have something on the memory card that is supposed to start up when WM does (like Facade or some other home screen plugin) and the device cant find it since the memory card is not always available upon start up or your card is almost full and it is taking to long to 'mount' or your card is defective
Thanks, that makes sense.
Is there any way to know which reg keys I need to export to save my wifi, MMS, etc T-mobile settings?

SKTools allows you to see the entires as you back them up. I generally just run then registry cleaner in SKTools first then make a backup. But you can find the ones you want by doing a search (ie WiFi or Connection)
