Hi,
I am a total newbie and so have no idea what is spl, hard reset or ROM backup methods. But I tried many new softwarez on my phone and as a result they all screwed up my phone. I tried a new panel manager it totally screwed up the system. I uninstalled it and now I cann't change panels any more, when I press the X button it says Xpanel exe missing. Then I thought I will try spb shell 3.0 I installed it and it screwed up my contacts somehow. I uninstalled it too.
And now my phone sucks!!
I am trying to learn how to BackUp rom before I try someone elses ROM. Even though its is pretty complecated which one should I try? I was thinking of 6.5 but there are so many of them dont even know which one is the right one.
Anyway in the mean time that I learn, I was wondering if somebody knows how I can get my phone Xpanel back at least?
Thanks in advance

hello everyone..
before i start i just have to say i was amazed at the quality and quantity of information found in these forums. you have done a great job! i mean it!
so having said that.. let's get to the real point cause i'm about to throw this thing to the wall
to start with, i have a Qtek s100 flashed with the NL 1.13 ROM.
it's a great ROM and i don't think the problem i'm going to describe is related to that, but just in case.
everything worked fine till today, when i tried to "skin" the standard keyboard with a mui file found here... i was stupid enough not to pay enough attention if that mui was for wm5 or 6 (i have wm2003se)
anyway i copied it in the Windows folder and did a soft-reset..
at first when i clicked the sip-button nothin happened so i thought "well that mui isn't written for _my_ .dll"
i renamed it.. did a soft-reset, deleted it.. and that was is.. from that point something really bad happened..
when i press the sip-button nothing opens.. (except transcriber) and when the transcriber opens and i switch to the keyboard no matter what it stays there not being able to close it.. like the function or sth behind the button is messed up
i did a full backup, hard reset.. with the ROM clean installed everything was ok
but when i restored the backup the same prob was there..
any ideas how can i fix it? could it be a faulty Registry issue that can be fixed without having to reinstall everything from scratch?
thanks in advance!
I tried installing one theme (transferred files to /windows) and didn't like it then I couldn't get back to my original sprint theme and so I installed another one (cab).
How can I clear all this crap out and just go back to my original factory theme? I shouldn't have messed with this stuff in the first place!
Help would be greatly appreciated!!
hard reset will bring youre phone back to original manilla.
but you will also loose al youre contacts and other apps and tweaks.
That's fine as long as I can get outta this mess!
It won't make me reprogram my phone will it? (i mean program my phone number esn crap?)
how do i do this hard reset?
for Angelko2k8
Look at this link
1) you may tray with tf3d config, there is an item "restore theme" which worked for me. remember to disable tf3d from today first or
2) you may download original black theme and install it. remember to disable tf3d from todat first
hope this help
Reflash in original HTC firm at:
http://www.htc.com/it/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=133&cat=all
You can use TF3D config or hard reset.
hard reset: Start > Settings > System > clear storage, enter 1234 and it will hard reset your system.
Thanks, I managed to the hard reset via settings control panel.
Someone who is knowledgeable in adding themes and changing TF3D skins should really make a tutorial and have it stickied. It takes way too much time to read and then downloading countless programs that you come to find out you don't even need. It's really a mess. I'm surprised this forum doesn't already have a sticky for that, we have everything else you could ask for.

Its not that hard dude.
All members in the forum went through the testing and failure method.
I myself reseted my device at least 20 times, in the quest for the perfect jewel.
Im guessing you havent flashed ROMS??
Well if you start flashing start getting used to reseting the device very often.
Greetings.

Nah man, haven't flashed my rom yet...I don't even know how to see what rom I have. The funny thing is that I'm not some noob who doesn't know how to do stuff like this, usually I catch onto this stuff easily but with so much info and downloads on this forum it's easy to get confused.
Once I figure out everything hopefully I'll be able to make a thread for others!
Hi there,
i have been around here since i got my X1 and got quite some info from these great forums. Now that the Hard SPL is out i wonder if it is possible to make a ROM of my current Phone state, like an Image with all working stuff that i can just reflash whenever stuff goes wrong / i dont like a custom Rom etc.
I simply dont want to reinstall everything when i do a hard reset for whatever reason.
Is there a way to do this for the X1 ?

Spb backup works really well and is easy to use. only 25usd. I think you can download a trial.
SPB Backup
does that also backup all installed applications/settings and stuff like that ?

It backs up everything.
You can even choose a custom restore if you only want to restore your contacts or calendar.
thats great, thx for the tip, will definatly try and buy it
Hi, I'm new here. Sorry as this is my first post.
But lately, I've encountered a problem with my XDA exec.
I always get text messages all the time, so I delete them. After a soft reset, the deleted messages come back.
All of my messages recieved and sent between the soft reset and that are gone.
I already tried waiting for an hour then soft reset, it still comes back.
Deleted the messages at the 'deleted messages' folder, still there.
I used Jeyo Mobile Companion to delete individual text messages, and it would still come back!
Also, my phone has a tendency to reboot by itself. As much as I dont want to turn off my phone or anything, I dont want to
I dont know what causes it, can you please tell me why?
The xda is my brother's but I'm using it. I dont want to ask him to fix or anything.
I also want to consider hard resetting but I dont know on which way it will erase everything. How much it will reset, and all of that.
Can you also tell me how much a hard reset will erase?
I really need help.
Thanks!
Welcome to forums
A hard reset will wipe all information sotred on your device, your SD card info will be intact (of course if you remove it before hard reset).
it will also help to clean all unnecessary files and apps you have installed so your device will perform much better.
It returns the device to it´s original state of the ROM.
All can be backed up before a hard reset, for example you can use PIM backup to save all your messages sent , recieved, etc.
Here how to hard reset:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Resets
Good luck,
Thing is, though. I also dont know how to install programs into the xda. I know I know, I should have used search..but I'm a busy student so I dont have time for that
I think the xda is in Windows 6.1, as well.
Won't it get any conflicts or problems with the phone if I hard reset it... as far as I can tell, my brother put and used a different software or ROM different from the 'original' one.
If I choose to hard reset, is there any way to back up the apps and the stuff my brother put? I will be in grave trouble if he founds out that I hard reset the phone and asking him for help when I'm just 'borrowing' his phone :]
No probelm doing hard reset with wm6.1
as I told you use the soft I recommended to back up your messages, for the apps check in start-settings-system-uninstall programs thelist of your installed apps, then let us know and we can point you to the right place to reinstall them.
it wont be any problem if you follow instructions, and your Bro will thank you when he notices better performance
It´s up to you mate,
Howdy,
I can't install any cab on my Elfin anymore ("installation failed")! That sucks!
It's no memory problem (theres enough mem).
I think somehow my HTC lost his information about what programs are installed, because
- the "remove apps" app has no entry (I can't remove programs but there are prgs of course)
- I can't remove images in the "pics & video" app ("file used or unauthorized") - but I can delete files using e.g. TotalCommander.
So, I can neither install nor delete...
* I think this problem exists since I did a hard reset and had to recover using a SpriteBackup!
Do you know how to fix it? Would be v. grateful... Oliver
Hi
It seems your backup is corrupted. One way to know is to Hard reset again, don't restore backup and install a cab, see if the problem is resolved.
Thanks for the idea, I will maybe have to try so later, but wonder if there's possibly a way to fix it?? (I wanna avoid hardreset again )
Try killing the app before u uninstall... use task manager to kill the program it may work...
if the problem happens in installing the app then i think u may have to follow wat tito told u ...( hard reset and dont restore things from ur old backup.)
it works after hardreset. but my device is massivly tweaked and customized - I have to find a solution to fix it - well, at least as long as I can live with that bug...
There must be a way to fix, maybe registry? file association -wceload.exe- is ok... this doesn't seem to happen so often, but looking forward to your help here.
thanks!
make a new backup after a fresh hard-reset and after you finished customizing it.
maybe the problem was with that specific back-up.
