Touch Pro 2 Sense UI is messed up. How do I bring it back? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I think one of my apps may have caused this problem. It just happened out of the blue. Is there any way of fixing this without needing to hard reset?
I have a link to show you guys how it looks, but apparently I'm not allowed to post links...
Thanks for any help!

Messed up, or gone entirely? If you're just back on the stock WM 6.x interface, you can turn sense back on in your settings menu, select the "today" option, then the "items" tab, and you'll see the check box to turn sense on, then just "ok" to close.
If it's graphical corruption, can you describe it, and have you tried a soft-reset yet? You may need to go back and uninstall any recent apps/cabs one-by-one, soft-resetting after each, to see if that clears it up.

It's messed up; it's not back to the stock WM 6.x interface.
The clock is completely messed up, the numbers are all unintelligable. It constantly says "Title" on the center. The slider bar is always there but without any icons. Background wallpaper is darkened.

Sh** dude what did you install?!
what ROM are you running? stock, 2.1?
---------------------------------------------------------------
If you are using the stock 2.1 that came with your phone you can try installing this, i dug it up from an old thread...no
guarantees but it might save you a hard reset!
http://www.4shared.com/file/109330961/b9be5561/TF3DIIBlack.html
These are the instructions given by Stunno for the install:
"Before installing it copy the "2330fc3c_manila" file from the windows directory *Use Total Commander or the Resco file manager to copy the file* and put it back after installation. When installing DO NOT let your screen turn off!!! and it takes AGES to install, about 20-30 minutes.
Once it is installed, reboot and you have the default HTC black TF3D theme, with white fonts. You can then install any theme you want without CFC compression"
To replace the Facebook installation look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...38&postcount=5
Make sure you copy the manila file as it says above....hope this works for you.
Below is the thread it came from, it should replace any and all of the messed up manila files whatever you have installed has messed up, and its prolly easier to replace them all than to try and find the specific files as there are thousands!!!

Of course someone more wise than me may have a better solution, but all the same here is mine, good luck

I'm running 6.1 as well, and I get that kind of issue when I install clocks or other themes/elements that are for 6.5 and up, but it would always go away after uninstalling the incompatible cab. Again, I'd just go backwards through your installs and remove them one by one...

I was assuming really, the screenshot just looks like the dirt-simple clock and home screen that's found natively in 6.1

I had a similar problem after using Max TF3D Theme Maker v4.1. If you used this app, you should be able to do a restore from with in Max TF3D

I think he's also running WM6.1 because it looks like he only has TouchFlo3D (not Sense; yes, you can tell by the clock).
Now, call me crazy, but seeing he has a plain, white Start button at the top-left of the screen, wouldn't that hint more towards him running WM6.5? Isn't it that WM6.1 has a colored Start button whereas WM6.5 has a white Start button? Just a thought...
To the OP: Can't you just uninstall your mods in Start > Settings > System > Remove Programs? Or is it not showing up there?

1. Those look like "portrait" devices...
and 2. I think my excal looks almost identical in res, but I got bad eyes
Did anyone see this page or use this tool?
http://mahmood1.com/trueVGA_truevga_systemfiles_wm5_truvga_pocketpc_truvgaWM6_and_wm5.aspx
I'm going to try it now. Let ya know how it goes. *Fingers crossed.
**UPDATE - Ok. Well. Installed it, ran the .cab. Rebooted. Now it just sits on the Windows Mobile boot screen. Haven't given it a WHOLE lot of time yet, but ActiveSync won't pick up the phone so I can't reinstall the ROM. Any suggestions?
Just install some original ROM (from your brand) with the bootloader mode, and then you can install latest WM 6.1.. and don't play stupid games anymore
The default res is perfect to me... on VGA everything will become more small and unreadable .
I got it back up. (That's what she said! Haha!) Anyways, back to 6.1 the way I had it. Would like to get the resolution better though or at least try it just to see what it looks like.
Just changed a 2 registry values and my phone works fine in the higher resolution (been about 30 seconds, so far so good)
heres the ones u need to change from the VOX thread
Change [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\ Display\GPE\LogicalPixelsY] and LogicalPixelsX to 96 in decimal
when not on the homescreen using the colored battery indicator icons and such the icons don't show, they posted dll's for that in the VOX forum and I'm trying them out now, I'll let you all know.

thats it...just changed those two values, rebooted and it worked...issues with STK and the top white icons but the homescreen works fine and the phone itself works fine, biggest issue is with the system icons, if anyone knows how to mess with DLLs and is trying this out I would love the fixes to those issues. Because it looks a lot better this way.
Oh and I highly suggest if you go over to the VOX thread DO NOT install any of those cabs, they forced me to restore my phone...twice because I had to try it again from a fresh boot.

works nicely
This works very nicely for me.
changed:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\ Display\GPE\LogicalPixelsY] and LogicalPixelsX to 96 in decimal
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\cxVscr
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\cyHscr
to 3
(the last gives narrower scrollbars)
The start menu now contains 3 rows with 5 icons each. So more icons are displayed at a time. For some reason, only 2 icons are displayed on each screen, though, so 3rd row has only 2 icons...
Dudes. This just makes icons and text smaller .
If you don't believe me - try with some white sqare - 200X200px and see it on a diferent "resolutions" - its the same .
This makes text unreadable... its too small for me.
i can read the text fine. everything is fine for me, I'm just looking/waiting for a fix with the system icons, but I can deal with them. I had my phone on for like 12 or so hrs now and no ill effects as of yet. So yea...we'll see.
Yah, I just tried the RegEdit and all my icons look like crap. It would be nice if we could get this resolution without the icons looking jagged, the black bar on the bottom of the screen, and the white squares on top.

CMyapps

Can someone upload the CMyApplication icons. PLease
there you go
here you go
Worked like a charm...Thank You
what is the use of this CMyapps?
thanks!!!
Creates a panel on your home screen. You are able to link an app to per page. This Reg file(s) have up to 20 pages.
App has to be stored on your phone or on your SD Card.
I think thats a simple explanation.
I'm unable to get the active/inactive icons to work using CHome Configurator. It shows a bloody red X even though I've inserted a URL to the icon I want to use.
Can someone help me? Thanks
i had the same problem but basically i went into Resco and unzipped each icon file individually and when i returned to the screen it was working ... hope that helps and maybe you can help me with something, when i putah this app on my phone and started it when i did i had nrg weather on my homescreen with the 5 day forecast panel but basically now that my apps is on there it doesnt show the 5 day panel anymore and i tried disabling one or more panels to see if it would come back and it didnt and i even tried changing the layout in the CHomeWeather settings ..... any suggestions

Blackjack2, if you already use the Chome Config utility, you can create as many pages you need after enabling/disabling the corresponding panels in it. You can also create multiple panels, as long as you give different names to them. There after if u go into HKLM/SW/MS/Chome, you can see your new panel/page listed there, and can change the icons, action URL, right soft key, title etc etc.. if u want to modify them (you can also do this thing via chome configurator)
Rickywatt has essentially provided reg entries to do this readymade, and has supplied a whole bunch of neat apps that u can give to each page, so that they will look cool on your homescreen
Im having some trouble i put both the files on my phone opend the CAApplication one and did the regestry thing and nothing looks diffrent..
Did u reset the homescreen? Or restarted the phone? Do u use Chome Configurator? If so, did u check whether the CApp panel is hidden? You will have to enable and SHOW it for it to be displayed on homescreen
Is there a way to backup all the setting in the sliding panels,so I dont have to do them all over again when I hard reset my phone? Thanks

T-Mobile Dash wm6 to 6.1

I have a quick question - I downloaded an image of WM 6.1.4 Standard from Microsoft. Can that be used somehow to flash my T-Mobile Dash to a 6.1 device? There are 4 different existing ROMs here, and I'm unsure which to use. I don't want to get any customizations, just a straight out WM6.1 for T-Mobile dash, IE (not Opera), and all standard apps (though extra games and weather app would be nice).
Thanks,
James

Just answered in the other post you made?
roloracer hit nail on head if u go for Kavana Ricky Remade i'd go for Vanilla as a lighter ROM, the other thing i'd do is the pagepool tweak so as it's 4.5MB as you don't notice a difference in speed in these ROMs but can get an extra 7-8MBish RAM
If you want to do the pagepool the file is in RoseRom Remade thread post 2.
I just got WM6.1 installed using Vanilla. Will I still need to get the t9 updated as well?
I'm going to re-flash in a bit after changing the pagepool. The weather app is going to be there also. Where can I change the clock style? I'm not a fan of the LED style. I kind of like the classic look there (and it's easier for me to read).

1. did you install on the storage card?
2. did you get the bj2 instead of the regular?
I don't have any storage card installed...I put it on the actual phone. I went with the third link, for 'any' phone ("Regular version for any device, without the monitor"). I did the pagepool change to 4 5 0, and the top bar is no longer there on the bare today screen, but on every other screen...odd. Curiouser is that when I did another flash without changing the pagepool, it's back.

Ok, I don't know why this is happening, I've been using this weather app for about 6 months and never had a problem . Ok, set up your weather options for your area (zip code) and reboot your phone, and see what happens.

Remove honeycomb from Start menu?

Is there some way to remove the Honeycomb effect (offset fonts) from the Start menu?
Also, I'd like to have more control over the order of things in the Start menu. Are there any tweaks that provide this control?
i really wish microsoft would do something about the start menu. its not honeycomb anymore without the honeycomb. its just staggered and it doesnt make sense anymore. if you want to place icons in certain order you have to press and hold and move up and down. its tedious but thats the way it works. switch to htcs manila start menu if you want it different.
This article actually suggests the staggered layout is more finger friendly than a regular grid. Not sure I buy it. Like most people, I think it makes the menu look jumbled.
http://onlygizmos.com/windows-mobile-65-honeycomb-menu-is-more-than-just-looks/2009/03/
Its true that the lack of sorting and re-organizing features for the Start Menu is annoying and a bit puzzling.
Don't know of any hacks for changing the staggered layout.
But reStart and Icon Changer are XDA user-developed programs that allow you to re-order icons, or change them. I've tried reStart with limited success. For some reason, the icons don't always end up where you put them on the list. I haven't tried Icon Changer yet, but intend to.

Seriously, this is the best Microsoft could do with a start menu? This is what was supposed to compete with the fluid cleanliness of iPhone's home screen? Ridiculous.
I avoid the "Start" screen at all costs and use Manilla whenever possible.
I organize the Start menu into folders and then alphabetize the icons with re/Start.

As I always say, QuickMenu. You can make the individual items as large as you want to make it increasingly touch-friendly, and it makes sense, includes the ability to end programs, recent launched, links to settings, etc..
I've been using an app called Panoramic Launchpad downloaded from Microsoft Marketplace for a few bucks. It's been working great, you can reorganize any icon you want on the fly by hold and drag. The only downside is it takes up about 8MB of RAM the last time I looked.

8 megs!?!?! Hahahahah, refund.
i actually wasnt a fan of the old start menu. the drop down didnt make sense. going straight into all programs did so microsoft threw you in there. and the honeycomb prototype design was super snazzy. http://stevewiilliams.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/win-mo-6-5.jpg i think htc did a good job at replacing that through the manila start menu in tf3d 2.0. but it doesnt really fit in with sense 2.5 so rather than updating it, they just dropped that all together. seems no one can make a good looking cohesive start menu.
Are you saying that Sense doesn't have a Programs tab?
i was actaully saying it didnt have manila start menu but yeah it doesnt look like it has a programs tab either.
Looks like the original question hasn't been answered yet - how do you get rid of the honeycomb? I tried the Showaco start menu program (from the folks that did REstart) but it did not work on my Sprint TP2 with 6.5.
AWESOME START
That's what I use, it creates a drop down listing which you can scroll through, if you tap and hold you can set to the top or down. I think if you pair this with ReStart you can get a pretty workable start menu.
I first found the cab on xda, but cannot remember which thread, so I apologize to the dev.
Hope this helps.
Awesome Start shows a list rather than icons. That still doesn't answer the question in this thread. How do we show the start menu with icons like normal, just not honeycombed?

[APP] Xperia X2 taskmanager for WM 6.5.x (WVGA)

Hi,
I posted this on the HD2/Leo forum a while ago, but I thought it could be usefull for other devices as well.
I modified a dump of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 taskmanager a bit so that it can run on top of windows mobile 6.5.x builds (the builds with the start button at the bottom).
Operation:
- Tapping and holding the clock will close the active application.
- Tap on the clock in the home screen (mostly Sense) will show a list of running applications.
- Tap and hold any item on the list of running applications in the taskmanager will give you the option to close all running apps.
-------
This version will not be overidden by the notification window when tapping the clock, which is the case with some x2 taskmanager floating around.
There are two flavors:
Flavor 1

The whole idea of modifying the X2 taksmanager for WM 6.5.3/5 was to get rid of that thing you're pointing to. I've checked the cabs and you really shouldn't get that icon. Maybe you've installed another version (the WM 6.5 version)?
Anyway to get rid of that thing fire up a registry editor and set HKCU/Software/SonyEricsson/TaskmanagerQuickWindow/Options/TaskbarIconBottomIndent to 50 (dec).
(But it's better to deinstall the version you've installed and install the above version, because the versions floating around replace a dll that is part of the core system. And that is not necessary).

I don't really understand you. I think you're saying:
a) you want the bottom x button to close an application instead of minimizing it (I think you can change that somewhere in the system settings)
b) you want to close an app by just tapping on the clock instead of to tap-and-hold it.
c) neither
I like option b. It's nice to minimize by tapping on the bottom x and closing an app. by just tapping on the clock. I will look into that. Maybe the default behavior can be changed. Maybe not though

Hmmm. V2 doesn't seem to bring up the task list when I'm just using the stock Microsoft today screen. It just drops down the top curtain...
I'm about to try V1 & see if it works.
Or does this pretty much require you to have the Sense/Manila UI running in order to use it?

are you restarted your device after installed because mine works fine with 28205 build or launch it manually in program files

Hi, I did have some issues myself with the cab installation with custom roms. It's a weird thing, but on some roms the registry isn't updated as it is supposed to do. I don't have a workaround for this, but try to install the file again next time you flash a new rom.

I installed the V1 edition & that worked, so I uninstalled that, reinstalled V2, & then it started working with that one as well.
At least it's working now though.

Thank you!!!
I do it and all become good.
PS: Colors of lines (green) keep from my cab
Thanks may give it a go, as I find the Touch X & Dutty TM's I've tried on my Leo a bit un-responsive. I have one question though, I don't have the clock visable in the top right corner (don't see the point of it - but that's just me), if I install your TM will there actually be an Icon representing the TM there? If not is there a way to enable it?
Deleted. Silly question.
