Invisible CommMgr & No Permission - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Hello everybody,
Now here comes a strange one! At least to me.
I have a HTC P3300 with the official WM6. I had installed all the Homeplugins, dial skin, comm manager, etc, to get it to look like a HTC Touch (without the cube).
Never had any installation problem.
Recently I came too close to the memory limit, so I decided that I would install most things to the storage card (yeah I know, real experts do that the first time, lol). Everything went fine, except for the 8-Button-CommManager (I can't tell you the exact file name because I changed it, but I downloaded it from this site).
The installation was succesfully, but the CommManager is invisible, well not quite invisible but you can see through. Just seeing the text but no buttons, no icons, just the Todayscreen behind with the button-text floating.
I re-installed it: first I was asked if I wanted to remove the old one which I approved. Installation failed, no permission! I never had this!
I tried again. This time no question about the old one, just the "no permission"-reply.
Of course I googled this but I haven't found anyone having this problem with a program he was able to install in the past. (No permission -> you have to unlock your phone, etc okay for those who never could install anything...or am I wrong)
Thanks a lot for answering (forgive my english, I got a little nervous with this problem )

PROBLEM SOLVED!
So for those who have encountered this problem, or for those just wanting to know about it, I found a solution after some intense googling.
The CommManager has some known bug, that it does this invisble thing when it is installed to the storage card, without giving you the possibility to uninstall it via "remove programs".
Just reinstall it to the memory. No problem so far.

help: Error deleting file

Been running my MDA Compact III for just under a week now. Everything was going fine, tom tom working etc. Yesterday I installed SPB Pocket Plus , now I can't connect via activsync and can't delete any files (from phone or memory card), get the error message....
Error Deleting File
Cannot delete 'filenamehere': Access is denied.
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and the file is not currently in use.
What have I done? I've tried a soft reset, that didn't work. I've took the memory card out and can delete files when I put it in a card reader. I'm hoping if changed a setting somewhere but I can't for the life of me work out what I've done.
Can anybody offer any suggestions?
I've never had problems after SPB Pocket Plus was installed. Currently I don't have it installed on my device since I use it solely just for navigation thus I cannot find a more concrete solution but to try uninstalling SPB Pocket Plus and see if your problem is solved.
Thanks for your reply, couldn't uninstall anything so had to go down the hard reset route. Wasn't too bad though, I got back up and running in about an hour will all my programmes installed and working again.
Still don't know what happened though.

activesync problems
iam also facing the same problem. is there any alternative solution for this problem other than hard reset.
thanx
It may have nothing to do with Pocket Plus but rather the mysterious problem discussed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285511
I had the same message and couldn't delete the erroneous files. My solution was also to hard reset.
My view
Oh i had the same problem,these files become stacked and are due to long paths,use the tool available at pathtoodeep.com ,it is a tool which deletes and also searches such undeleteable files and also assists in installation and sharing of long pathed files

My TyTN says it lost its memory...

I have just updated my TyTN to WM6. It all went well (it was renamed frpm TyTN to Hermes200, but I can live with that,,,) BUT, it seems to think it has lost its memory. When I try to start a PIM (Agenda Fusion 8.5) it just wont start properly, it goes on "updating" the appointments and tasks, and the suddenly returns to my start screen. Also, when trying to sync it says "sync can not be completed" too little memory left... And when I tried to delete a task, it said there was to little memory to start the program, and suggested that I should go to "System - memory" and stop some programs there. BUT there were no programs running, and I have 8MB memory for program and 14 MB for storing left... That has been enough before...
Anyone having had and/or solved this issue? Thanks in advance!

Bad blocks?
Your device may have a bunch of bad blocks. If you've got Hard-SPL installed, they can most likely be fixed.
That sounds great! I have read through the post you suggested, but it was a bit too technical for my english, do I just take the "hard-SPL" and install it on my device, and then start it? (I might with this question not only proof that I am swedish, I might also be a bit non-technically-stupid... )
instant tall hard SPLv7 which you should have done before flashing anyway to be on the safe side. then download MTTY to your desktop/laptop. start MTTY and in the cmd prompt type info 8 and that will tell you if you have bad blocks. if you do type task 2a if I remember right and that will fix them. its not hard at all if you follow directions carefully. one thing though MTTY only works with XP not vista.
Thanks for that! You say I should have had it installed before, but I can install it now afterwords?
I have a swedish update to WM6, does that matter?
Sorry.. I have to have some more help... Should I do i like this:
1) make ha hard reset of the TyTN
2) install Hard SPLv7
3) Download MTTY (what is this..?)
4) "fix it"
5) put my back up back again
I am not so used to this, excuse if I ask stupid questions... My TyTN is though at the moment more stupid than I am. I can not start the camera (not sufficiant memory), not start the contatcs list and the backup I have put back was not properly installed, the textmessages is missing, some settings is not there, I can etc. BUT the phone-part of the phone works better!
i am very much looking forward to some help here!
Thanks in advance!
/HÃ¥kan
Dunno if this is relevant to me here...
I upgraded to WM6 and already have the SPL bootloader in and a custom, er, rom. Seemed to work ok but towards the end of the day I noticed that the TASKS (ie reminders) wouldn't work, stating out of memory. Now the PIM is corrupt

Generic HELP for my trinity

I need HELP for my trinity!!
I don't what exactly happened, or better, I was Trying to cook my own ROM, after some test I try to put again ROM Karmba_A 7.2 that previously works perfectly.
In this phase my problems begins....
1 - After the update my storage card was completely formatted , I loose everything, especially backups baut is not the main problem.
2 - I install karmba once again, but with a strange issue, I can't have incoming calls notification, only the small phone near the signal bar is shown, nothing else, phone doesn't ring, no popup, NOTHING.
3 - I can't install some programs, some dialers and so on... (for example I try to install duronmarcel iphone style dialer but is impossible, ppc give msg "Installation of .... was unsuccesful" and nothing else)
4 - I try to install another rom and everything is good, i install karmba once again and the problem comes back.
5 - Now I have schap's rom, but I have same issue as point 3.
I already try mtty procedure, i flash original HTC rom, anyone knows whatelse I can do please...
This happened once to me with the ROM I cooked myself. The solution is really simple: redownload the CAB. But you know, it took me ages to figure out that the cab was corrupted even the fact is I stored my CABS on laptop not the storage card.

Need help removing an application

Hey everyone first time poster, just wanna say love the site and I come to you guys for some help........
I installed "Alfonso ThrottleLauncher" and my touch became very slow. I then attempted to remove it via Settings/System/Remove Programs. Everytime I try to remove it I get " Alfonso ThrottleLauncher was not completely removed. Do you want to remove it from the list of installed programs? " I tryed doing a soft reset and that didnt help. I also tryed removing it through MemMaid and that didn't work. Can anyone please help me get this thing off my Touch, it's running like crap.
I was under the assumption that it was making my touch slow because evertime I would open windows from file explorer it would take nearly 10 minutes to open and the ppc wouldnt run until it was opened. Now the problem i'm having is that i finally got the app removed, but the windows opening proccess is still giving me trouble. Any idea why this is happening. It only happens when trying to open windows.
The "\Windows" directory will always take longer to open due to the amount of files stored there. MemMaid should have wiped out all the files, I use and it works great. If you think there are additional files, just search the folders and registry. Or you could reinstall and use only MemMaid to clean it, I also have "Remove Bad Registry from Unistall" used during QuickClean.
Or.....hard reset if you want it all gone.

Bluetooth not working

Hi, my bluetooth does not seem to work on the device. If I reset it i get the error message on start up saying 'BTTRAYCE' is not a vlaid Pocket PC application. Is my unit faulty. I have thought about doing a hard reset on the device but wanted to check with you guys if there is a simple fix, the unit needs replacing? or if the hard reset would work. If I was to do the hard reset what can I use to backup all my contacts with there facebook links etc and will the facebook links still exist?

You can use a program called Sprite Backup, although its not free. That will backup a lot of things, but to be honest, its probably best to start from scratch as it backs up all registry changes too, which could be the problem for you.
My bluetooth works fine, what part are you having trouble with?
Bluetooth Issues
I am having the same problem.
I have narrowed it down to tomtom installation (no bluetooth issues until tomtom is installed)
I have tried with TT7 910 9185 as well as TT7 445 and after the reboot the same error occurs.
I have also tried installing it on the memory card, and hard resetting it, however, the TomTom doesn't appear to talk to any Satellites.
I installed Tomtom 7.910.9185 and it says "Unable to start. Not enough memory" or similar. I installed it from cab on my 8GB Storage Card in the same way that worked perfectly on my Raphael.
The point of telling you that is my bluetooth is still working perfectly.
As for you Bladesharp, surely if you Activesync all the relevant links and details will remain with your contacts? I'd say a hard reset will determine if it's a hardware issue.

I'm on 7.915 for TomTom and don't have the issue.
Links to Facebook won't transfer with Active Sync, they are stored somewhere seperately on the phone and are not part of the Contacts program in pOutlook.exe, they are part of Manila which is not transferable. Not sure where it is stored, have been looking now for about 2 months
I came across something similar to this last week after installing TomTom from a CAB, and found this post on a related issue...
http://www.noeman.org/gsm/trash-section/65951-tomtom-7-bluetooth-problems-sorted.html
I deleted the two bluetooth files (BtSdKCE30.dll & BtCoreIF.dll) from the TomTom CAB as described, did a hard reset and reinstalled, and haven't had the problem since. Could be the same issue?
Could someone who has not installed TomTom please post the dates of their BtCoreIf.dll & BtSdkCE30.dll? Mine are both 04/24/08 20:10.
Does anyone know if it is possible to revert to the ROM version of these files WITHOUT doing a hard reset?
If some kind person was able to provide me with the ROM version, can I just overwrite the ones in RAM?
R
These came from my device's \Windows directory, and are dated 14th May. I think they are unaffected by this problem, certainly I don't get the boot delay or BTTray boot crash that seem to be the possible symptoms of this. (Use caution, of course; backup what you can before tinkering in case of disaster.)
Sounds the same as my thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=522373
someone already tried the above files? will it correct the problem?
Thanks for the files.
I am happy to confirm that installing the two DLLs gets BTTrayCE.exe working again.
I just renamed the 04/24/08 versions to .was and use Total Commander to copy the files from my storage card to \Windows and rebooted the phone... ActiveSync wouldn't let me copy them directly from my PC as it said there was already a 05/14/09 version there and it was read-only!
As it rebooted, it complained that BtCoreIf.dll was from an unknown supplier but I just OK'd that and everything is fine. Bluetooth & TTN working.
R.
PS Didn't need to copy BTTrayCE.exe as this had not been overwritted.
Ah, thanks for letting me know. I wasn't sure if the exe was also needed, I only included it since one of the symptoms I was getting was that this wasn't a valid executable; but I guess that was just caused by the corruption of the dll's.
I don't think the DLLs are corrupted, just an earlier version.
Just like the bad old days of Windows 3.1 where installing one package would break others due the installing of different versions common DLLs. Gosh, I feel old!

Ah yes; that makes more sense! I still had a boot delay even with the files from the most recent TomTom version I could find.
Hi there,
i had the same Problem with TT. In my case I also copyed the BTTrayCE.exe. Now I dont get any error anymore but the Bluetooth can still not be started. Can somebody please upload the Original BTTrayCE.exe. Thank you
I did a reset of my Swisscom German Device. Copyed the 3 BT Files and installed the TT7 v7.910.9185 again. After restart of my Device the same BT Error. I replayced the 3 Files with my Original ones and restarted again. New Error comes up "Bluetooth Stack can not be started"

Thanks guys a lot. Rewriting those two files solve the problem. Bluetooth works now.

Thanking you very much kind sir. I unzipped these files directly to my storage card in USB mode and just double clicked the exe file and it fixed my bluetooth up for me. (good job as I am a technical biff when things get registry level)
EDIT sorry I thought it did but it didn't just fix it by double clicking the exe. I've hard reset now as I don't really know what I am doing
As said in the thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=522373&page=4
There is no need to replace the two files.
Just delete them and soft reset. They will be replaced with the two right ones.
Bluetooth problem with TomTom resolved!

I had the same and here's what I just discovered and what worked:
I removed the files and expected them to be replaced upon restart. When I checked I noticed a file in the \Windows directory named BtSdKCE50.dll - I had not noticed this before. I (re)moved this, rebooted again and now Bluetooth and FM Radio (!) are working, yay!
hth,
TA2
This fixed my problem. Couldnt delete the old files but copied the replacements over the top and that sorted it. My version of Tom Tom wont work stil but it is 7.5 I think.
I've had exactly the same problem I've tried overwriting the dll's with the files provided in this thread,
Now whilst I don't get the error message, when I try and enable bluetooth, I get "cannot start bluetooth stack" error
Any ideas peeps?
