Last night I installed Manilla2D, then the GPS - all worked excellent (didn't get satellites, but didn't go outside - beside the point), until I tinkered with the weather XML file and installed the rest of the files for M2D in the "Not necessary but recommended" folder. Having installed so much at once, I am not sure what caused this problem.
Problem: certain events aren't happening - weather module used to work with any city in the default list - now, clicking a city just brings me back to the screen that says "select a city", and the unresponsiveness continues to other programs. So I began uninstalling a couple that I thought may be the culprit, and now on startup, I get a "tap here to launch touchFlo". After tapping, it says launching, then it goes back to "Tap here to launch touchFlo...".
At this point, what do I do? So far I haven't done anything but install CAB files. Is there some way to just restore this to whatever state (even factory defaults, etc)?
you can go into settings and click on clear storage to reset everything. Keep in mind you will lose all personal data including contacts, so back every thing up.
You could also try going to settings then remove programs and start uninstalling programs one at a time untill you find the culprit.
Which update did you install? The latest is update 20, but update 21 is an elfin update so that's the one I picked. (The Elfin is a t least related to the vogue, update 20 is meant for ALL htc devices)
Another thing, what did you mean by "then gps"?
The proper order would be to have an upgraded radio first, then install M2D
The only known fool proof way to completely remove M2D itself is a hard reset. While this is true for M2D itself, you can try selectivley unloading the "extras" starting with the last and testing one by one.
BTW, a hard reset is done by holding the power and camera buttons down together while pressing the soft rest button.

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.
I had the speed fix instaled but i did a factory reset to to clear up space and just instaled the thing I really use and now i cant unlock the HSUPA feature in advance network any sugestions
hmmm...well id say uninstall the cab. soft reset to make sure its cleared out. then if i remember correct, install the data fix cab again. dont restart right then when it asks. cancel it. then go to start menu. settings. advanced connections. then make sure to select the one that says HSPDA/HSUPA enabled. meaning both are enabled. after u do that, then soft reset it. once your phone boots back up, you should see the big H symbol next to your 3g one or whatever one you have. It worked like a charm for me. no problems. the H stays enabled on mines. Just make sure to do it exactly like that or its not probaly registering right or something or saving the changes. hope this helps you. let us know. i have the data fix, sd card tune up, no push internet, and dynamic proxy cabs installed. along with all bloatware deleted from phone. So my phone is wayyyyyy faster and smoother than b4. also added a ton more free ram available on startup, idle, and normal/heavy use. i also got drivers but going off subject..lol good luck
What is the latest version i've dowloaded jh2001's tilt2 data speed fix 1.0
when I open to install it says it is unsuccesfull
hmm..i just checked..i have the same version as you, the 1.0. you just have to make sure to install it in those steps i listed in previous post. Unless u have some custom rom or something and its not registering right. ok quick version. make sure its uninstalled. we starting over..lol Then install it directly to your device memory if the option comes up to do so. Then itll probaly say that u need to soft reset for changes to take effect. press cancel. you dont want to soft reset yet. then go to start menu, then settings, then advanced. You should see that it changed up from b4. You need to select the one that has both hspda/hsupa. make sure its selected. then go back out to main or home screen and soft reset. once your phone boots back up, you should see the H SYMBOl up top of your phone. you can also go to to your settings again . and go to advanced and make sure that it says hspda/hsupa. dont change anything else in there unless you know what you doing. might change something up. it should work wit no probs though. let me know if that still didnt work. theres nothing wrong with the cab. or just download it again, meaning a new one, and do those steps listed. enjoy your weekend.
Well Ive tried uninstalling previous installation but it doesn't show on the programs list and Ive followed the instructions given above but I still getting error installing the ceab I had it installed before and it worked!!
How do I erase the phone to factory settings other than cleaning storage?

Clearing Storage will reset your phone to the factory (default) settings of your current ROM. Is an error message appearing when you try to install or is nothing happening?
I did went and clean the storage but When I try to install the cab it instantly says
"Installation of jh2001 tilt2 data speed kix 1.0 cab was`unsuccessful"
i really don't understand as i mentioned before it was working fine two week ago
Well just did a hard reset an erase the storage but still can't reinstall the speed fix!
Is there any other way or another cab to install?
Anybody reporting the same problem?
ok, you don't need the speed fix for HSPDA/HSUPA support. Download and install Julian Schapps advanced configuration program, you will also need to download and install .net ver 3.5 (get it from microsoft). Install and soft reset. Start adv config, scroll down to data connections and enable HSUPA support, soft reset. Then open settings, advanced network settings and then scroll to enable hspda/hsupa and you are all set. you will be getting around 2.2-2.8 MB/sec download speeds. This works well and you will see the H on your top line of the home screen. You do not need the speed fix, you can install it, but after these first two steps.

quiquerc, you can do what ms0529 just suggested, it should get you the HSUPA options and the related speed improvement by following those steps. However, each time you clear your memory like that (aka "hard reset"), you also wipe out some critical elements that have to be added to any new fresh ROM, like .net 3.5...so, you'll have to reinstall that anytime you wipe the phone, before many programs (like this cab) will install or work properly.
So, install .net 3.5 again real quick (see below), and you should be able to install and use the cab after that...however I DO highly recommend the advanced config app anyway, so you should try that out even if you don't use it to help you out with this (in fact, I've even attached the cab here for you as well )
Ive install net 3.5 directly from microsoft and the advance configuration tool
and was able to enable hspda But when I go to the advance network connection it doesn't gives me the option to enable it like the speed fix did.
I'm going to redo all the instructions above maybe I'm missing something.
Ive instaled the config tool and its worling fine now.
Im instaling android let's see what happens!!
hsdpa
I need the help. But there is no such option under "advanced network" on the htc tilt 2(Enable/Disabled hsdpa option).What programs recomended for me
Hi all!
I'm new to DHD but NOT to android as I have a HD2 running android since July 2010!
However i made a fatal idiot error when i was so existed to the extent where i updated the software directly when getting it and now i'm stuck with it. I have:
-2.3.3 android
-2.42.415.1 build
-12.54.50.25U_26.09.04.11_M2 baseband.
- and of course a stock ROM unrooted and locked!
Ok so here's the minor issues i'm having:
1- Although i have disabled (unticked) all prediction and spell correction in keyboard settings, it's still giving me a red line under wrong words (or so it thinks) and gives me the ability to add it to custom words although i dont want that.
Any help on that?! (i know i can install another keyboard but the stock one is the perfect for me)
2- Weather animation (after unlock) plays 1 on 20 times with sound effects and the remaining 19 times without any sound!
Any help on that too?!
4- The magnification window that is created when u scroll on a keyword while typing is shifted upwards!!!
Example: if i write : asdaksdj asd midnight lkj asdakjd akj daklsj dalkjsd
asd asdl kjas dlkajsd lakjd laksjd daytime laskjd laskjd laskj dlakjfggjwpio
qweoiusdfkj dfknsdlfisdfop
and if slide on "daytime" i can see the word "midnight" magnified while i can see the top of the cursor moving on the word "daytime"!!!
However also 1 on 20 times it works normally!!!
Any help?!
3- Finally one irritating issue is that i cannot set a security lock screen for this phone!
In fact, i "can" set a "pattern" or a "PIN" or a "Password" without any problem, however it does only work once after unlock!!! After that it will be disabled automatically. When i go to settings i can see like if there's no security locks!!!
Any help on that please?! (PS whatever the duration of autolock (i mean immediately, after 3min, etc....) is set, it's still the same)
Thanks guys!
Anyone please?!
red dots are bug(or maybe htc didnt want to disable that) , also all htc gingerbread update have bugs, that's the reason i rooted my phone, because factory reset didnt help me.
i didnt have problem with weather.
try factory reset, and if that does not solve the problem, root is your friend.
before you done factory, remove battery for few seconds, and see if you still have problems.
I think you try doing 'Factory data reset'
Factory data reset will lose all data on your phone memory but not the data on SD card. So make sure you back up SMS, Contacts and calendar entries etc..
Then go to 'Settings > SD & phone storage > Factory data reset
then follow the instructions.
Hope this will help,
Good luck!
the question is
How in the hell you couldn't downgrade ...to get ROOT
Re-written to be more concise and readable:
Long story short: I installed the program "Permissions Denied" from the market and restricted a few games. When I rebooted something was broken and I can't quite figure out what, but it runs deep through the phone.
The phone isn't bootlooping, but when I starts up it will very often become unresponsive immediately after getting to the lockscreen, my theory is that things are trying to load and crashing in the background. The only fix for this is to wait until it appear to reboot itself; the screen will come back on and show me a quick few cycles of the boot animation, then back to the lockscreen. After this, it asks to re-activate on the network. Whether or not everything works after this point has been highly variable. Currently, my phone is on but has no way of signing into a google account (isn't even an option in the list under settings).
If I try to restore a nandroid, at the very end it spits out "Error while restoring /data!". I've done this with a couple nandroids that I've used fine in the past. Fully wiping from CWM and installing a fresh rom yields similar results.
Basically my thinking at this point is to back up anything I want while I have access to the phone and try to do as full a factory reset as possible. Any ideas? Of note is that I've run the "fix permissions" function both in CWM and ROM Manager, and when I run it in ROM Manager the log shows permissions for a bunch of programs that have been wiped. So I'm guessing that permissions settings persist across wipes, but I don't know what to address that with specifically.
Bump? (rewrote OP to make it less of a train wreck of my late-night detective work)
Edit with maybe-progress: I found and installed an older apk for Permissions Denied and even though this is an older nandroid and everything has been wiped time and again, the permissions for the games I changed are still disabled.
Having trouble getting the program to actually undo anything though, and rebooting the phone is a rather tiresome task with all this going on just to find out nothing changed.
Does anyone know
1)Where permissions live, and if I can reflash whatever that is, as it is clearly corrupt here.
2)Where I can get a copy of the v2.9 apk for this app, as maybe it will be better at restoring what it did than the older version I dug up.
Edit2:I eventually just did a factory reset and it fixed everything. I had also emailed the developer of the app and he got back to me with the following advice:
It sounds like the permissions file is locked, packages.xml. Try opening my app, going into the settings, and make sure that the first option is NOT checked.
Then hit the unlock option to unlock the file.
If that doesn't work, try the following in a terminal...
su
chattr -ia /data/system/packages.xml\

Intuitively this sounds like it may have fixed the problem, so I'm posting it here in case anyone ends up with similar problems and finds this thread searching.
Hello,
I have a weird problem with my phone. Few days ago I've drained my battery and swapped it to the fresh one. But after phone booted up everything is broken.
My wallpaper changed to the one i don't know, it even doesn't look like stock one (Screenshot 1).
Notifications doesn't show up. Probably because upper drawer doesn't work now as well (i can slide it down only once, to show me date. But can't slide it down further to change sound profile, wi-fi etc. Screenshot 2).
Home button doesn't work, square button (the one for switching between applications) doesn't work either.
Half of the settings got reset to factory, some of them stayed unchanged but doesn't work anymore. For example, I've had my lock screen protected by pin. It still shows in the settings that I've set pin code, but there is no actual pin lock when I'm locking my phone (Screenshot 3).
Developer options menu says that they "are not available for this user" (Screenshot 4).
Even my QuickCircle case doesn't work anymore.
I have F400L one with Fulmics ROM 7.6 (6.0 Android).
I've tried to dirty flash it (i was on Fulmics 7.5 before). But after flashing new version of ROM everything still the same.
I've tried to wipe Dalvik + Cache, no luck either.
I don't want to do a full wipe, it will be a huge pain it the ass to reinstall and reconfigure all of my apps. Especially ones like Google Authenticator.
Dear community, do you have any suggestions what happened and how i may fix it?
UPDATE:
Found same problem: https://plus.google.com/u/0/+PaulOBrien/posts/8EGNvpY9jQa
Solution is to type this command (through adb or terminal):
am start -n com.google.android.setupwizard/.SetupWizardTestActivity
At this moment, this command resolved probably all of issues occured.
