Cannot open pics & videos (orig. WM5) - P3600 General

Hi all,
I'm running the swiss version of the Trinity, it's called v1510 and I still run the original WM5-Version on it.
Now I found out that nothing happend, when I try to open a pic or a video. All what happens is that the screen flashes shortly, and that's all. When I try to start the application pimg.exe (I think this is the correct program?) nothing happens.
I have no problems to open pictures with other apps like Xnview or SPB Imageer, but not with the build-in pimg.exe. It wont be such a problem for me, but the point is that I cannot add images to my phone-contacts, as nothing happens when I click on "add image". I suppose it trys to open pimg.exe, which is not working properly.
Therefore I'm searching of one of those solutions: how can I force the trinity to set Xnview or SPB imageer as the default viewer? So, that it starts one of those programs when I wanted to add an image to my contacts?
Or: what can I do to "repair" the original pimg.exe?
Thanks in advance & best regards
JoeSac

if you backup the data you wanna keep
then you can try out a hardreset to delete regs and such
if a reg got corrupt for that program

have u installed anything lately. mine did the same thing and it was to do with a direct push mail client

Hi,
does this work with SPB-Backup? This is the only backup-software I have. In this case I suggest I should not backup System-Data, as they could be corrupt, am I right? Well, maybe I will try a hard reset...
@hoyler30589: Well, I installed a few programs, but I absolutely dont remember from what time on the pimg.exe did not work... However, I did not install stuff regarding direct push clients.
Best regards
JoeSac

Hi all,
after performing a hard reset I re-installed all my former softs, and therefore I was aware of a software called "Helmi's WMedia Support". And yes: this was the reason for my issue: after installing it, the viewer didn't start, and after uninstalling it the viewer worked properly again. A very nice "media support"... Well, maybe it was designed for WM6, can't remember anymore...
Okay, I'm happy that I can now add the pics to my contacts!
Regards
JoeSac

Hey Joe...
I suffer from the same problem you had, and although I'm sure I never installed anything called "Helmi's WMedia Support", it might be worth a try installing and uninstalling it. Therefore I tried to google the tool, but didn't find more than one website from Taiwan which didn't allow me to download it.
Could you send it to me, if the program is free of charge/public domain?

Uninstall problem ...

Hi everybody !
I'm new and i have problem ....
I cannot uninstall nothing ot my Qtek 9100 ... When i try to uninstall message appears - ".... was not completely removed. Do you want to remove it from the list of installed programs?"
How can i repait uninstalling or is there a program that can uninstall software on my Qtek..
Thanks at advance !
Common problem...
This is a known problem on WM5. I haven't been able to uninstall anything from my wizard since I got it.
I just use spb backup to back it up each time and if I don't like the app then do a restore. Makes the application evaluation process pretty serial though.
wish i could be of more help...

Is there an another way to uninstall some applications?
Well, here's my approach.
#1. I do the Windows uninstall. When it asks, remove it from the list.
#2. I do a search using Total Commander or Resco File Explorer for files/folders that belong to the program and delete them. (This can be a little tricky, since they may use the company name, like Resco, or the program name, or some part of the program name, or an abbreviation of the program name.)
#3. If there are any additional problems, I search the Registry as in #2. This is mainly if there is something wierd like I get an error message related to the program, for example at startup. Or if I am trying to reinstall and it won't let me.
After this has happened quite a few times (say every month or so, you might want to do a hard reset and just reinstall the programs you want. That will clear out the mess.
Yeah I've been having problems uninstalling on my atom!!!
There should be a workaround to this.
HELP!
already a solutions to uninstall issue?
Is there already a workaround for this problem? Because I like to test out different software and uninstalling it is a lot of work this way
Thanks

"This device is restricted from downloading this file t

My Qtek 9100 with the latest english generic ROM was working fine for months. This morning, I removed the SIM and put it back in. Since then, it won't activesync, I can't drag n drop files to it through Explorer, and when I try to download a CAB file via IE, I now get this error message:
"This device is restricted from downloading this file type."
Any ideas? I don't understand what happened to it! It's like it moved to a very strict secure mode all by itself. It doesn't make any sense!
It seems that my security policies are all whacked up. The device doesn't even see the installed applications in the "Software uninstaller manager" app anymore. I tried rebooting and soft-resetting, no good.
ok guys, in order to fix my problem, I NEED one of you to send me ALL the keys and data info from this registry folder:
HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\
Please export that registry for me as a text file and attach it here (or copy/paste it), so I can retype it manually on my Qtek 9100 phone (I can't import anything on my PDA atm as I can't download anything to it, it won't let me).
If none of you do this small favor to me, I am screwed. I would need to hard reset and lose everything (I can't back up anything).
Here Goes...
Ok, I am running the latest "T-mobile custom" ROM, ROM version 2.24.10.1 WWE. I should have no policies enabled... I have typed out all of the keys and values under this in notepad in the format name-value. all values should be DWORD. Hope this helps....
__________
Edit: My phone is a t-mobile MDa, don't think that should matter...
Thank you very much, much appreciated.
I have this issue but I can't view the txt doc can someone paste it here or email it me in the body so I can add them manually or if ur really kind email me the cab file. I have the htc wizard running the most beautiful edition rom. will this work by any chane? I can't download any file this device is restricted from downloading this file type every bloody time... (bloody being f*cking)

Edit:
Okay I found that my security policies on my MDA did NOT match totally with the one that was posted here. Little adjustments had to be made in the value of the d-words as well as 3 dwords had to be added.
I also found ADDITIONAL D-Words:

I have not checked if changing these have fixed my issue or not so lets find out I will post back with the result. Should I try removing the additional ones found on my MDA?
Merely changing the security Policies as listed in the .txt did not fix the problem
I have this problem too, I can't even edit the registry so I can't even try to put the policies back again. By the looks of things that won't work anyway.
Anyone got a solution that doesn't involve wiping the phone? Not that I know how to do that anyway. I have an XDA Orbit from O2.
Thanks,
Sapan
Same problem here
I have the same problem (XDA Orbit 2)
Worked fine for the first few days - was able to download CABs etc. Then it just stopped. I've read elsewhere about root certificates. Could this be the problem?
this device is restricted from downloading this file type
I have had this problem on my HTC touch with windows mobile 6.
This microsoft bug can make you loose a lot of work, time and data.
Are the Microsoft programmers drinking while they work?
Here is the solution I found!

Restricted Download !!!!! Hum
Hello all. I also have a Qtek 9100 for more than 2 years.
Honestly i never had that problem. And i already flashed undreads of ROMs and software to it.
One thing is that i always have Backup Software for any eventuality. Things can always go wrong.
Tips
First - Try to use Resco Registery Editor,its a good Software to make any changes "Delete/Rename/Copy/Add etc,etc.
Second - Look for Its Right,the TNT Master. It will be dificult to find him as he is getting is Engineer Degree. You can also ask Octaivoi,he is a Wizard Master 2.
Third - Keep an exautive search in XDA Devs and eventualy you all will find the answere.
Fourth - Get a Backup Software,get back all the software that cant be recovered. "Eugenia software can always be recovered". And FLASH a new ROM. There are many,many Beautiful and advanced Wizard ROMs arround XDA Dev.
Hope that any of these tips can help
SOLVED!!! ThankS!!!

first had this problem with the empty "remove programs" list 6 months ago, glad to see this whacked-out solution that works!!
Conclusion: Microsoft Windows Mobile messed up the security settings, so let Microsoft Word Mobile put it back automatically, voila!
And ofcourse, I've read about this "fix" soo many times at so many places, and it works for everyone but me >.< I tried all the different ways theres to it, nothing worked. One more thing, shutting it off and THEN pressing soft reset doesn't make sense. Anyway I tried, and it didnt fix. Still got the file deletion/changing restriction. Can't sync, can't get online, download files nothing ... If only Microsoft cared to fix this. Anyone any idea? Dutch phone, Hi provider, rom version: 1.93.404.1 NLD
A Real Fix
Has anyone on this board found A REAL FIX to this problem?
Because I just got my tilt 6 months ago was doing good and now cannot download, cannot stream, cannot play cellular videos, radio.
I have tried the office word solution. That did not work for me!
Is there a Real Solution?
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I'm sorry it didn't work on your device. I had the same problem, no sync, no file copy/rename on the device, no cab install, no programs in "add/remove programs" on my Mio A702 thing. The MS Word solution worked smoothely and now I have everything as it should be. So I can confirm the "word thing" actually works . Don't know why it won't do the trick in your case

Add / Remove Programs Prob.

Help!!! All the programs in my add and remove program list has dissappeared. I can't uninstall any programs. Any suggestions?
hey bud i have the same problem if anyone can shed some light on this please do i know its happended to me where every i have it connected to pc with active sync and try to install programs then active sync wont find my unit so any help will do
Hmm, you guys can try to use SKTools to see if it see your installed files. Just download the trial version, if it works, but it, trust me. Memaid have the unistall feature also.
I had this problem once on when I had my 8125. It was from installing a program onto my 8125 and the computer froze. I unplugged the USB cord and reboot the computer. After that the 8125 couldn't install or remove any programs (Nothing in the remove section).
A hard reset cured it.

Unfortunately, SKTools' trial mode is pretty useless. Nevertheless, it's one of the very few apps that worth every penny - that is, you all can safely buy it, you won't regret your choice.
More Probs.

XDA Nova - Mediahubmini.exe - Can't delete it

Hi people,
I got a big problem regarding my XDA Nova.
I installed Touch Settings on it, but every time I put something in the mediahub (for example EyePhoto for pictures) and launch it, pimg.exe (pictures and videos) AND Eyephoto shows up. The same happens with every program. I read that I need to overwrite the mediahubmini.exe with the patched one, but I get an error if I do it. Already tried to stop the process with memmaid, but this doesnt work either. Cant overwrite/delete it.
I already did a hard reset but I did a softreset when it came to software branding, so I dont have any O2 programs on it. I dont think thats the cause but this may matter.
Thanks in advance
Try FdcSoft Task Manager to kill it.
Umm..I was able to kill the process mediahubmini.exe, but I still get an error if I try to overwrite it.
This is what it looks like
(sorry its German, I actually prefer English versions. It says something like:
Cant overwrite mediahubmini, make sure there is enough space and it is not write protected)
Is it possible that it cant be overwritten because it is write protected?
Is there a program like fileassassin for pocket PC?
Would there be a difference if I got myself a MDA Touch or VPA Touch?
Maybe it's locked 'cause it's system file. Try TotalCommander CE to delete "System" attribute and then delete it (using TotalCmd too). If it doesn't work, Resco Explorer should help.
I already had all this programs on my phone, but i'll try to get rid of the "system" thingy(dont know how to but ill figure it out)
So..I tried it with total commander and the picture shows what I found.
Seems to be burnt into the rom.
What do you think?
If others deleted it and it works, it will work for you too
P.S. You can use free Spb Screenshot to take screenshots of your display
Give me an example of someone who got it working on a XDA nova.
The next time ill get a genuine HTC Touch.
I really cant change the settings you see in the picture.
by the way: Using my camcorder is a bit faster
I think I found out why it didnt work.
This phone is not cid unlocked, so I couldnt flash mediahubmini.exe into the rom.
I gave it back after all..ill buy a real htc touch and cid unlock it.
Thanks for the help gronostaj

Opera crash

Hi all,
each time I shut down Opera, it crashes, and I have a screen explaining me Opera crach ......
I've the stock release.
This issue appeared one day but I don't know when, maybe a problem with an installed application ????
Any idea to fix it ?
Kaz
Did you install Flashlite 3.1 ? That program makes opera slow and unstable.
thx for your answer,
no flashlite on my phone .......
Kaz
I have the same thing, I have installed quite a few things lately though.
Guess the only option is to hard reset and start over.
i have the same prob. installed latest beta last night still has the same prob. means i cant change the settings and save them, so cant impliment that iplayer fix as a result.
I think I solved the problem. In my case it appeared after I played with build 2808. Opera started crashing on exit and even hanging the device. It turned out that while I didn't have Flash installed, opera.ini still pointed to a non-existing plugin folder, \Windows\Opera9\plugins. So I simply went to opera:config, found the path setting, reset it to default (blank), and the problem is gone!
No, today it started crashing on exit again for no apparent reason, and what's worse, it hangs the device completely!
Does anybody have stock unmodified files so I can try to replace what I have in \Windows\Opera9?
when you say crash, is this when you get the thing asking you to send an error report to m$? if so i get the same thing. i'm unsure whats causing it and dont want to hard reset. the way i olook at it currently is it doesnt seem to crash when i actually use opera so i try and ignore it
Found it!
I had installed that Seismo thing that needs HTCAPI.DLL in the windows folder.
When I removed that, no more Opera crash (yes the one where it asks to send a report to MS)
And I did a hard reset for that!

In my case it was sometimes hanging the whole device. I had to reset it using the button in the battery compartment.
I solved the problem finally (at least it's been working for a whole day without any crashing) by uninstalling .Net CF 3.5 and Gyrator 2

Confirmed. I did it as well. I tried it before removing and got the crash. i removed it, loaded opera, exited it and no crash.
I installed that .dll because VR Hologram needed it.

Same here. Although the strange thing is why it's not crashing with this dll in my \Windows folder.
Maybe it's a trilateral conflict between Opera, .NET CF 3.5 and the dll, and removing one of the three solves the issue?

That sounds plausible, I still have .NET CF3.5 without the DLL and have not had Opera crashing since removing HTCAPI.DLL, I need .NET for more than that DLL.

I confirm. Removal of the htcapi.dll file also solved my opera crash problem.
HTCAPI.DLL versions
Hi All,
I had the same problem with Opera crashing the phone on exit.
today I found that I have 2 htcapi.dll on my desktop that it seems I have downloaded. I was about to delete one of them when I realized that they have different sizes. one around 7KB and the other one around 4 KB.
so I checked the one installed on my HD and it was the 7KB so I replaced it with the smaller one, and so far no crash anymore.
I hope this will help you guys.
I am attaching the file for you to try.
Regards
Bassem
Hey all. I am still having this problem even after deleting the above .dll. Basically when I go to exit opera, the whole phone locks up and I have to hard reset or remove the battery and reset the phone that way. Any suggestions as to what could be going on? It only started this 3 days ago, and I ahven't installed any new apps/programs in the past week.
Edit, solution found in other thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468861
