I have a very strange symptom on my device. When I go to the start menu and try to scroll in the window it didn't refresh the screen, the icons are overlapping each other. This happening if I am go to a subcategory in the start menu as well. See attached screen shots. Right now it seems every other apps are working fine.
Issue caused by WMedia Support by Helmi's. I uninstalled but it did not helped at all
Any idea, how can I resolve this issue?
What I have done till now:
I have checked the install cab file - it seems all dlls were removed from the device (2 or 3 remained but the date of the files are the same when I coocked the ROM)
I have checked all files were created/modified on the day when install the codec, but I did not found anything.
I have tried install some start menu converter such like start menu grid, but they did not helped at all to solving this issue
ROM: Dutty WM6.5 LEO R4 WWE
Any help/idea would be appreciate.
I think you will need to Hard Reset your device as you mentioned that some critical system files may be missing. I don't think anything else can be done.
Change the tsk theme to classic blue then soft reset, then change it back.

Thanks for the hint, but unfortunately it did not help, any other idea apart from hard reset?
If no one else has reported the same bug in the chef's thread then flash a stock rom, then flash the Dutty rom again. Then hard reset twice. Then find an update to that program you installed that caused it in the first place.
I don't think it is related to the rom is much more the app I installed. If there won't be any other idea i will do a hard reset and check (might be update rom as well)
I also try to check registry changes what I found in the cab, but nothing special, at least for me

I upgraded my Blueangel to windows mobile 6 a couple of days ago, yesterday i was reset it. when it powered on i have the windows mobile 6 screen and nothings happens thereafter, it is not connection to activesync and i m not able to ROM Upgrade.
Please help me ASAP
read the wiki carefully
try a hard reset after and do the no+yes+yes ritual in the hard reset.. it should worked...
regards
adri
baybe it is because third party software you installed, it happened to me with the touchflo which replaced the touch.dll with another one for another device, also with HTC Plus today plugin
I had it after installing VBAR... you have to reset it and press the record and camera button, then clear the registry HIVE and press the mail button... it will be hard resetted but in wm6 you don't lose any data, just some settings and cabs...
Yeah, I got this problem too a few days ago.. annoying...
When I tried to back up my data using Sunnysoft backup manager, BA had to restart, and then it stuck in the WM6 page... ended up clearing the whole thing again using the no yes yes option...BA was able to start up on safe mode though... weird
I only had this problem once though....
Hmmm, interesting few people have this problems with different circumstances, however leading to the same problem...
is it really WM6 issue or is it 3rd party apps issue?

good question!
it just happened to me as well.... i had an almost fresh install of WM2006 (just downgraded, merged Extrom and upgraded again).
I installed some few cabs and eventhough it worked fine for a day, it then started to freeze while booting again and again....
i never had the problem before merging the rom though...
it happened to me also, after doing a soft reset using pbar. it ends up in the green screen with the microsoft logo without going any further. i've tried several soft resets after but it always ends up in that mode.
had to perform a hard reset and install my favorite apps again.
well maybe there are some incompatiblityes with those programs you mentioned, i have not use them my BA has the default apps (the posted cabs) Sprite Backup 6, Htc Home 1.5, Adobe Flash Lite and i have no problems at all

have you installed all cabs you posted (cabs & cabs2)?
in what order?
whats Sprite Backup?
and which one is the HTC Home 1.5? (i only see HTC Home6?!?)
sorry, but i am really getting more and more confused...
regards,krz
Sprite backup is the best backup softweare IMO, yes all cabs (cabs and cabs2) Home6 is HTC Home 1.5
thank you very much for your answer, xplode!
there are three HTC HOME6 cabs out there:
1) Helmi HomePlug_Comp.cab: found in Helmi_C's WM2006 archive FLASH.zip
2) Helmi_HtcHome6_WM5_comp_sdkcert.cab: found in Helmi_C's WM2006 archive AddOn.rar
3) HOME6: an archive with two folders (WM5 + WM6) and HTCHome.cab
are there any differences?
is one better than the others?
i never found an answer to these questions...

Use Home6 if you want to be able to modify the HTC Home tabs from 6 (default) to less than 6..... this is the only one working....
With Helmi_HTCHome6.. it also works, but cannot modify the tabs......
never tried the other one....
OK OK I had this problem and it solved it without losing data. First i tried to reset the device , like 30 times with no success. Even with a hard reset it didnt work. So you just Put ur device in the booloader mode and then soft reset it and voila. i dont know if it's really the correct solution but it worked for me for 3 times when i had that dumb WM6 screen. It's because of Battery status software ( 100% sure )
BA Freezing

Can anyone tell us which third parties programs that cause the freezing or which are compatible whit WM6. To used or avoid them.
Hi,
same problem here. I just installed the cabs from helmi (Thanks again!), the HTC Home (Helmi_HtcHome6_WM5_comp_sdkcert.cab), Acrobat reader and powerpoint (out of this cabs in the first message in the central BA6 Thread) and no additional software. I've re-installed it two times, but that doesn't help .
@ Xeon: Maybe a good work-around, I will give him a try,
UPDATE: @ XEON: Doesn't work for me
regards
Andreas
OK im again facing the same problem it seems my solution didnt work. As far as it seems to, i had to soft/hard reset more than 20 times to solve it. i dont get it. when i reset it the problem is still bla bla bla.. but when u leave it stuck for 10 mins and then reset it , it will work. the point is that after all , u dont need to format/clear registry. All u need is to keep trying. WEIRD [email protected]#[email protected]$#$
I keep having the problem after installing a new cab with a soft reset. The only way to get out of the WM6 screen is to go into bootloader and a soft reset. Just like Xeon said. However, I don't think it is the battery issue because if I just do a normal soft reset, it starts up fine. The problem arrives only when a soft reset is required to finish an installation from cab.
damn, my mogul got f*cked up after installing touchflo. Not trying to blame this program but maybe there could be some conflict? After i installed it and didnt really like it, i tried goin to remove program in setting to remove this, but guess what, nothing showed up in there. For some odd reason i cant remove any program from my phone because the screen was blank. Then i tried to install another program and said unsuccessful whenever i tried to install anything. Does this happened to anyone else? any solution
I have the same problem on mine. I will let you know if I can figure out a solution.
LD
http://www.andLinux.org
I had a different problem awhile back after installing Total Commander, any new programs that were added didn't show up in the remove programs menu.
What I had to do is use Activesync to remove them, not sure if it will work in your cases though, but hook up with A.S. and on your PC in A.S. open tools/add remove programs and check/highlight what you want removed.
Good Luck
I am having same problem, please someone help.
REMOVE PROGRAM list is empty after ftouchflo installation and touch cube installation.
ACTIVE SYNC not working either.
please help
There was another thread on this(No Items in Remove Programs), but it didnt go anywhere.
This just also happened to me. I also found that I could not install programs and that me phone would not sync... This happened right after installing Slither Cube, and efrost FTouchFlo.. so I went to uninstall and ran into the same thing...Deleted items from the startup folder and still the same thing.. deleted files from the program files section and same, also tried a soft reset 10X....so I had to do a hard reset....
Me too.
I just hard reset. After reading everywhere, this was the only option.
i hope someone knows how to fix this cause i really loved how the latest touch flo cube cab worked on my phone.

No need to hard reset
Anyone running into this "Empty Remove Programs" problem in the future, there's no need to hard reset! Check out the simple solution here:

found it in this xda thread:
Conclusion: Microsoft Windows Mobile messed up the security settings, so let Microsoft Word Mobile put it back up... problem solved!
...and in other fullscreen apps which support the g-sensor (resco contacts/photo viewer for example) when I tilt my HD.
Any known solution to this? :/

Have you updated to a newer genuine ROM?
I know this is an issue in the official Orange ROM upgrade.
as far as I know I have the latest official greek rom
I had installed gyrator2 and was afrait it might have caused this, however the problem persisted after uninstallation, even after a hard reset!
Well after searching a bit more I found the solution!
a) download this file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3920829&postcount=522
b) IMPORTANT! Create a backup of the original LargeTitlebar.dll on your /windows folder
c) Replace with downloaded file
d) Soft reset
If manilla 3d is not opening after the first soft reset, deselect it from settings -> today and then select it again and soft reset
voila, not it works perfectly
Glad you got this sorted. Thread closed
Please Help, I'm using HTC_Asia_TW_1.66 stock rom on my HD2, after installing some apps and mods, it won't boot after a soft reset. I restored the system by SPB backup to earlier status and then all comes back, the phone works again except the photo tab remains blank (black).
Maybe that's because I didn't make a "full backup" but only "system" level by SPB, may this lead to miss something on restore?
Here is what I have now : In the right side there is still counter showing "1/99" (means there are 99 photos?) but nothing shows up. The camera icons on the top-right side are still there too, and they works. HTCAlbum works too. On the bottom the two menu text remain "phone" and "menu", which belong to the home tab.
All other tabs work just fine.
I tried to delete the album cache files but no luck.
As mentioned I got system backups from last stats, I'm thinking extract something from it to replace current files (exe, dlls ?) but I've no idea about what to do~
Any helps are very appreciated...
Sorry for my English...
Here is the photo : www [dot] hyperreel [dot] net/Amis/ScreenShot2.Png Sorry I'm not allowed to post outside link as a new member.
Same problem
I have exactly the same problem. I just noticed it today. I'm using the WWE 1.66 ROM and everything's been fine.
I have no idea what caused it, and would love some help.
Thanks,

The symptoms look very suspiciously caused by the installation of the landscape rotation tweak, TX Total Landscape.cab
I had installed this particular cab before but had since removed.
Same problem
I have the same problem with my hd2... but I did not installed the TX Total Landscape.cab.
I think the problem started when I tried the GTX white theme.cab... but even after its removal, the photo tab still doesn't work.
Is this a bug caused by Cookie's Home Tab 1.8.5???
I really don't know how to solve this...

Thanks Zentury, I think this may be the most possible reason. I didn't use the Tx one for landscape fonction but I do have installed another enablelandscape.cab. This one may cause the same problem. but I can't confirm this cause I've switched my stock rom to energy rom yesterday. thanks anyway!
I tried several ROMs - 2 of miri's, and 2 energy ROMs and all 4 of them lead to freezing of my ""pictures and video sense tab, even after a fresh flashing. I flash my device after I format my SD card, remove it along with the SIM, perform task 29 => ROM flashing and then hard resetting. I tried different compatible radio versions, 2 of the roms were with CHT...still the same bug - pics and video tab freezes few seconds after finding the pictures on my SD card. I think what is common in all these 4 ROMS is the presence of a screen rotating app - in the last ROM (Energy Reference) it is called just "Rotate screen". Anyone know how to disable it?
drkalo,
It's weird cause I'm using Energy's rom (JUN22 Cookie version) and the photo tab problem on the last stock rom is totally gone!
I don't think it's easy to disable the rotation from these cooked roms, maybe you can ask within the specific rom threads.
But I think if I have no problem with energy then you wouldn't... I'd suggest formating your SD card but you've done it. I suppose you copied files back to the card after formatting. Now it sounds like a file error. Did you try deleting any non-image files on your photo folder (DCIM) ? especially album.cache. Move out the videos too, they could be problematics. When using HD2's camcorder I've tried saving videos in other formats and that freezed my phone.
Dear noixdarec,
As you suggest I copied back all of my SD card content after formatting. I deleted the cache files but din't delete the whole DICM folder. Now I did that and then I made several new photos and videos and - VOILA! The tab works without freezing! Never thought of that and I thank you VERY, VERY MUCH! Mersi beaucoup!
Dear drkalo, je t'en pris (you're welcome) ! So glad that you solved your problem, have a good day~
I've recently installed the latest Energy rom on my HD2 but the default keyboard is looking a bit strange, the bottom row of keys seems to have shifted upwards.
Has anyone else experienced this or know how to fix it?
Also, on the second screenshot, I've noticed that the menus have changed but there is no mention in the changelog on the website. Is this normal or have I changed a setting somewhere?
Thanks
hhmm did you hard reset after flashing?? and the menu can be changed in hd2 tweak maybe bsb tweaks also im not sure. its something about using windows menu's i think its system menus in bsb tweaks mate, that should change it

No, I just flashed it and reintroduced my propgrams/backups.
Will it be worth trying again and hard resetting it?
you should hard reset after flashing mate,

Oh ok, cool! How does it make a difference? I would have thought that a flash was as good as a hard reset, is it not a format/clean install?
Thanks for your help mate.
well it is kind of, just gives the flash a clean base to start the rom up on, just the way it is lol

I beg to disagree & BTW, that doesn't even make sense! The "flash" that you mentioned is already starting off of a "clean base". You DONT need to hard reset after a flash. Flashing in itself is like Hard Resetting.
The problem you are facing could be because of one of 2 things
1) Your backup has registry / program files that are replacing newer files from the rom. If you normally make use of automatic restoration by means of SDConfig.txt or XDA_UC, try not using it this time while Hard Resetting and see if the problem persists. The easiest way to do that is by popping your card out.
2) Occasionaly something goes wrong when chefs are 'baking' their roms, so to speak and they might end up putting out bad roms with problems. This could be a result of that.
i'm on the same problem after HR and updated settingd from XDA_UC.
before was great so this is probably after update.
After a hard reset, I installed all my cabs indiviually and worked out that it was the cab that add extra currency symbols to the main keyboard that was causing this. I'd found it from the Leo Hints & Tips thread. I uninstalled it and is reverted back to normal.
50. Enable All Currency Symbols from Main Keyboard
If you want to input the Euro, Yen or Pound symbol, you have to tap on the '12#' key and then go to page 2. A bit cumbersome. Now you can have access to all of the currency symbols just by pressing and holding the 'f' key and then drag to choose the symbol you want. Install cab below to device main memory only.
