[Q] My Pictures screensaver not working? - Windows Mobile Software Development

hi
hope this is the right place for this - apologies if not and just ignore me...
I have an HTC HD mini - love it mostly.... I like to use the My Pictures screensaver option - and have had it working on this phone at times ("Play as screen saver when connected to a computer for 2 mins")...
however from time to time (including now for some time) it stops working. Or rather it looks like it kicks in "Pictures and Videos" flashes up briefly in the status bar, but then nothing happens :-S
The option is (I think) OK in registry settings.... not sure what else to check - there are pictures in the folder....
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Pictures]
"ScreenSaverPosition"=dword:00000000
"LastLocation"=dword:00000001
"StorageCardPath"="\Storage Card\DCIM\100MEDIA"
"ScreenSaverEnabled"=hex:01
"RotateRight"=hex:01
"LocalPath"="\My Documents\My Pictures"
"SlideShowLandscapeMode"=hex:00
any thoughts? hardly urgent, but I do like this feature and would like it back!
thanks in advance

Capturing the screen with the HD

Hello Gents,
I am wondering if I can use some help with the following questions:
I had downloaded the hotfixes from HTC (the device response time, the display flicker and response sliding bar)
Everything went fine but later on I was trying to place a video call and I noticed that the video call button (the one below to the * key) has the letters of (Call Hi....) just about the lowest edge of the button. So when I tab the button, I get the call history instead of the video call.
I unistalled the fixes and restarted the device but nothing new. I just do not wanna direct you through the fixes but I am just saying all what happened. Have you faced teh issue before?
The second issue is: How can I make a screen shot of the phone,. like the ones I see on site here, is there any software to do it, something like the active synch or I have to be a developer to be able to do it...
Thanks indeed for the help
Hi, for screenshots I use MyMobiler(.com)

[Q] Call screen HTC Desire 2.2

Hi guys,
(Not sure if this post is in the right place, sorry if it's not )
Ok, since yesterday when I make a call, the call screen has changed. I have not (knowingly) changed any settings.
Normally I get the droid icon with mute & speaker option with the keyboard & contacts option below. I can also see the name of the contact but now, the 'Add call' & 'Hold' buttons (which don't respond), cover the name of the contact.
Now I cannot call up the keyboard, I have 'Add call', 'Hold', 'Mute' & 'Speaker', below in a bar 'Arrow left', 'People', 'Keyboard' & 'End call'.
When I select the keyboard, it doesnt appear, just the '|←' symbo which slides up above the bar containg the 'Keyboard' option...when I press it nothing happens.
The bar containg 'Arrow left', 'People', 'Keyboard' & 'End call' partiall cover the 'Mute' & 'Speaker' options!
This is very frustrating as I cannot call the gas company, phone compane etc etc as they all have menus which require touchtone!
Please help!
Thanks in advance
See if taking out the battery for about 5 seconds will fix it.
Thanks, that sorted the issue out.
Any ideas as to how it occurred?
Well it seems that it is some kind of bug in the software.
You are not the first to post such a problem, but the good thing is that it can be easily solved and not occuring frequently.
Ok, thats good to know.
Thanks for the reply & solution

Panorama Mode

I was trying out a unit in a store a while ago. I noticed that the panorama mode does not give you any feedback at all. I'm not sure how to explain it without the use of images (I'll only get my device in 2 days time)..
Anyway, it only tells you to "press camera button and move from left to right". It's weird because I don't even know what has been captured and what hasn't. I'm not sure if this is a bug (looks like it is because there is a long "panorama" icon and a short icon that looks like it's supposed to show you where you are as you sweep)?

[Q] please help with Bliss Pop

hello,
I just stated using the bliss pop for LG G3 and I have many questions and problems...
please help me since I'm getting despaired...
1. camera is very different than the original camera - when I take videos it shows that its recording the movie but then I can't find the movie in the gallery or in the system folders... which means I cant make video files!
2. from time to time the phone stops reacting completely - can't answer calls, can wake the screen and to stop it I must take the battery out.
3. with no early notice it stops making alerts sounds - only rebooting it changes it back but then it forgets the unique sound I allocated for special contacts.
I must say I didn't have all those problems before installing bliss pop...
I still have other problems with it but they are less critical...
1. while talking over the phone with the speaker on - how can I change the volume level without using the back buttons?
2. when I added a pattern lock code to enter the phone I can't use the direct access to the camera with the shortcut on the bottom left.
3. once I've added my own picture to the background the phone stopped shutting the screen off with double click. its only opens it with double click... even that in the setting it say it works
4. how can I set a different ringtone to a whole group of contacts? and not to each contact person individually?
Thanks!

Videos Randomly Pausing

This problem is most noticeable when watching YouTube, and I haven't toyed with too many other video apps to determine if it also happens, but while watching videos, the video will randomly pause.
Doesn't matter what brightness the phone is at, the phone isn't too warm when it happens, doesn't matter if I have headphones plugged in or not, etc. And it's not like an accidental screen touch, because touching the screen once shouldn't pause the video, just show the controls.
I've tried a full factory reset of my phone and it's still occurring. Has anyone experienced this or does anyone have any suggestions for troubleshooting? It's incredibly annoying...
Edit: I should clarify this isn't pausing while buffering - this is acting like someone pressed pause mid-video - on screen controls appear, home button appears, status bar appears, and the "Play" icon to press and continue playing the video.
I have the exact same problem.
Did you manage to resolv it?
I have LG H815 SEA and i'm on stock ROM, because i can't root or install custom ROM
The same thing happens to me. I've figured it out why it happens - and it happens in all full screen apps - bottom home touch screen buttons appear together with top notifications bar for just a split second - if you look you'll see it. That causes youtube app to pause the video, and behaviours are different in other apps. It is really annoying and I haven't found a fix yet.
Same issue here with a brand new LG v20, even happens after I take the case off. No idea what could be the issue. And same with the video being fully loaded, and being on o off Wi-Fi doesn't help . Please someone give us an answer!!!!

I had this problem with a galaxy S4. Try going to Settings -> Apps -> Three dots button on top right -> Show System -> Scroll down to media storage -> Storage -> Then Clear Data.
This seemed to fix it for a while. If there is a single app your particularly have the issue with, try reinstalling that app.
