Hello
I let my wife use my phone last night and now (may just be coincidence) whenever i try to access just about anything under settings I get an error saying setting could not be opened.
Any ideas?
Thanks
edit
I am running the tmobile wm6 upgrade
I have gotten this a few times, you will have to reset your Dash and then resync it with activesync.
reset
how do i reset the dash
Go under start, and in the applications folder there is something that says clear storage, click on that
just so you know that will completely wipe out anything you have on your phone. i would try everything else first.
The only other thing to try is to turn off and turn the phone back off. I called TMO support on this, that is what they had me do.

hi guys..i wonder the hardware button with a little sattelite antenna under green call button is for starting gps program?if it is...can i reasign to let`s say igo?
i just want to know if someone of you knows about a program (like deep freeze in windows for pc)who can revert back to my initial program instalations and configs without hard reset?...cause hard reset wipe out every other program that i installed after rom install...
Go to Start/ Settings/ Buttons, Buton 1 should have the GPS icon against it, select this then at the bottom of the page where it says assign a program use the drop down box to select the application you want to open with the button - Mike
hey mike...as you probably see i am a newbie and i want to thank you very much for your quick help...yes i did it ...now i have another app on that button....
someone heared about a program( like deep freeze for pc)to revert my instalations and configs back after soft reset or after restart?
A soft reset will not wipe any data from your device, in fact soft resetting a PDA based phone is a regular event and not something to worry about.
Should you ever need to hard reset the device you will wipe everything and put it back to out of the box as new condition - to easily recover from this situation I use Sprite Back up. It can create self installing backup files so even when you are away from the PC you can still recover the PDA - Mike
well...thank you mike for your kindness and for being so helpful..i know about programs that make images from my device but i am looking for a program like deep freeze but for ppc.i am using this on my pc and i never had problems with viruses or odd programs behaviour.It keeps the same my configs and settings too.
Randomly when I update QuickGPS I get an error:
"Data Activation Failed:
Location setting must be on so that the latest satellite data can be used to speed up GPS positioning"
I'm on a T-Mobile USA Touch Pro 2.
If I restart my device, I can update QuickGPS without error. But once I get this error, I always do until I restart my device. Its like the "location setting" just dissapeared. Anyone have a similar issue or know of a fix?
I'm having same problem.
I've try to update the QuickGPS and it tells me I need to set location to on but I can not find it anywhere. It suppose to be at Start, Settings, Phone, Services then I should be able to see locations but I don't see it.
It's missing and I hate to call customer's services and run into someone who reads out of manuals.
Any takers?
TIA.
Anyone have any ideas?
same prob
I see that my location is set to on, but wont update regardless of soft reset. just updated to europe wwe 6.5 from htc site. didnt have prob with 6.1 stock from tmo usa
I have the same problem with the stock rom from sprint. it will say i need to turn on location setting, but when i look, it's already on. also, if i try to turn off location setting, it stays on. when i look again, after selecting off, ok, etc., the location setting says on again. soft reset is the only thing that fixes it.
after soft reset, i quickgps, then run garmin and it works fine. after i turn off garmin and don't use it for awhile, then i can't get a fix and i get the location setting error when trying to run quickgps.
any ideas?
I'm using HTC Topaz with official WM6.5. I've found that this problem happens after installing WM6VoIP.cab (it's necessary for enabling SIP). Btw not only QuickGPS fails with update, GPS completely stops working.
Removing of "Sleuth's WM6VoIP" through "Add\remove programs:" doesn't work - only Hard reset helps.
Ive got a genuine 3 UK (unbranded) desire and been using it for over a year.
Recently they released a small software update (2.29.405.5). I couldn't install this as not enough space so i thought id do a factory reset to get space, clean up and go from scratch.
Not a problem except after that reset my WiFi has stopped working completely.
It turns on, it shows as on, it scans and it shows WLANs around. However no matter what lan you select the second you enter a key without even trying to connect it says "Unable to connect to the network".
If i try to manually add a network i get "Unable to save the network".
It doesnt even seem to attempt to connect, just errors immediately. It's not a key issue as entering any key either correct or incorrect immediately produces the above error.
After a factory reset failed to get it working i rooted the phone to delete/edit the wpa_supplicant.conf file. This didn't solve the problem.
As a last resort i downloaded the latest RUU, flashed but again this hasn't fixed the problem.
So, does anyone know whats broken or how i can fix this or is it a return on the phone?
Everything else would appear to work perfectly but it just refuses to save any details of wlans or connect to them. It all worked fine before a factory reset!
Hi there
It all started once I accepted Android 6 load from T-Mobile.
After the update, I started to get an error message when I was trying to open settings.
I did hard reset to get back to factory settings, but guess what? Now I am getting this pop-up when phone boots, so I am not able to use the phone at all anymore.
USB mode is not set after reset, so I can NOT connect phone to pc to try to manage it....
Anything I can do in that situation?
Thanks!
I cannot attach a picture, so if you want to check it, see the post on another forum I did yesterday....
go to androidforumsDOTcom and search for "infinite pop-ups on phone reboot" on it....
