I have IPDashboard, Agenda Fusion and Wisbar Advance 2 installed in my Jam. I'm having problems with my PDA not ringing(or vibrating) when in stand-by and need to do a soft reset to enable it again(ringing function). I missed several calls already and I decided to upgrade to 1.06 ROM. i installed the same set of apps and got the same problem. I did a hardreset and have not installed any of the said app and now my Jam works like it should be.
I'm just wondering if any of you are having the same issues that I have and what applications currently installed in your Jam.
WisBar Advance2 is known to have caused problems with Phone Edition devices.
The guy at Lakeridge is even kind enough to inform anyone about this in the middle of the front page on the wisbar download site:

stupid me i missed that.. i've used it with my iMate and 6315 before but I dont remember having that problem
thanks!
I had the same problem with Wisbar.
In the Lakeridge forum there is a beta version that solves that problem.
Works for me.
(In the new beta there is also a working signal strength meter.)
i tried the beta.. so far so good. i just can't have a PDA without WA
task bar replacement for Magic Button
Does anyone know of a good task manager/closer that doesn't cause lockups and screen freezes?
I tried using magic button, but its buggy as hell, same with wis bar advance.
If I don't use any task manager, my jam is jamming. no soft reset or lock up issues.
Please help.
thanks
WA 2.0.14 beta works fine with my Jam(as of now). no lock ups or anything. i just cant find any task manager with feature set as WA thats why Im sticking with it(and great support too)

Hi dnp_now,
I'm using vbar (can be found here: http://www.vieka.com/vbar.htm) as well as TillanoSofts SmallMenu (http://www.tillanosoft.com/ce/smenu.html) for switching between apps and closing them on my german MDA compact.
Both of them are running at the same time and are also linked to one hardware button by VITO ButtonMapper (free version for two actions per button is included in a Cebit-Software package available here: http://www.mobile2day.de/cebit/).
This combination is very practible, because I can start and close every program installed on my MDA using the hardware buttons and dont have to use the stylus:
One tap of the hardware button opens SmallMenu with which I can start the programs and switch between already opened apps, two taps on the same button opens vbar, with which I can close the programs (also those running in the background!).
So one-handed operation is possible without any problem. The only downer is that vbar cant' be used in landscape mode, i.e. better close it when switching to LS and reactivate it when you switch back to portrait mode again.
Hope this helps,
greets, BGK[/url]
I would suggest SPB PocketPlus. Very stable, and well worth the money.
jam keeps turning on when connected via activesync
Hello,
Does anyone know why my jam keeps turning on when its connected via activesync?
I put it on standby, then a few minute later it turns on, and try to sync with my desktop. I'd rather have it on standby most of the time.
thanks

is there a software that flips the desktop 90 degrees?
A lot of software would become more usable e.g. Excel, IE etc.
Thanks
JS Landscape, Nyditot. But I didn't test these softwares on the XDA II...

Back your **** up prior to installing any funky software Bro.
Last time I installed JS Landscape, it ****ed up my XDAI.
Try it before you buy it:wink:
Peace and more peace.
On XDA II:
JsLandscape does not work. They are working on a new version for PPC2003. It will freeze your device and you will need a HARD RESET.
NyDitot on the other hand works OK, but do NOT use the shortcuts it creates in the programs menu. (One of them is called reset or restore something) and will freeze your device so that you need a HARD RESET.
However, if you just use the icon it creates in the settings menu, it works fine.
Where can you get "NyDitot"? I can downlaod it from the website but you need a regisration code, which you seem to get only get if you recieved "NyDitot" as part of a bundle software.
Doh, forget my last... found that you can buy it online, or even try it for free at www.download.com
NyDitot (downloaded two 3 weeks ago) locked up my Qtek 2020 - had to hard reset. Be careful....
Osandlan,
thanks, I did have a few problems running it, froze a few times, was only a trial version so I have deleted it now...
im using nyditot v3.22 on my xda running wm2003 v4.01.00 and it works fine for me i use it on 360x480 landscape and its wicked for the internet
i put it on max res and the buttons were too small to use the stylus lol
I'm using the latest version nyditot on my XDA II without any problems, but it's always wise to perform a backup before installing anything: I've had a lot of hard resets through software on the XDAII, far more than on the XDAI.

Warning, do not use. It did not work on my i-mate with Dangaard 1.60.21 ROM installed. After I tried to change to landscape I had to hard-reset.

Do not use what exactly??????
the dotpocket program. DO NOT USE IT. IT REQUIRED A HARD RESET.
We have noted some strange locking up of our Xda II's over on the MTekk forums requiring a hard reset. We have a number of threads running at the moment but the main one is here.
I have been in touch with Spb about this and they inform me it is actually an HTC and MS issue. Below is their email response.
Hello David,
We do our best to fix this problem ASAP. We work hard with HTC and
Microsoft now on this problem.
But this problem occurs not only with Spb Pocket Plus but with other
programs too.
We have feedback from HTC and Microsoft about that (sorry, I cannot
disclosure more
details since it is information obtained from our partners).
So I am not sure we will be able to fix it in Spb Pocket Plus - probably
HTC will fix it in their ROM.
Spb Pocket Plus does not use any undocumented functions that can cause
such behavior.
Probably we will disable running Spb Pocket Plus on these devices at all
until HTC fixes this bug in ROM
Pocket Plus 1.x is not available online now but I can send it to you if you want via e-mail.
If you bought Pocket Plus 2.x and can't use it, you can always ask for refund.
If you have any questions, please, don't hesitate to contact me.
Best regards,
Margarita Bochkova

It appears as though this issue could also be happening with version 1 of Pocket Plus on the 1.66 ROM (and some 1.72 ROM's too).
Thought you guys might like to know. Generally I find Spb products to be good, but it appears as though Spb are being blamed for this issue. I think this email help point the finger in the right direction.

Hi djwhyte
This is some strange stuff as I've been running Pocket Plus 2.0 for a few months and have recently installed 2.1 (just for the hell of it I think its only a VGA update from what I can see)... but have not had any problems on my XDA II before, hear are my details of my device if this helps:
ROM Version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM Date: 02/20/04
Radio Version: 1.08.00
Protocol Version: 1337.18
ExtROM Version: 1.66.165
The only thing I could think that I MIGHT be doing diferent is that I do not use the today screen pluging (I use all other features like repeating allarms and task mannager!) At the begining I did use the today screen and do not recall any problems as well I've taken it off because my today screen was getting to cluttered with other software I am running.
Not sure if this is going to help you but have to tired installing Pocket Plus with NO other applications installed after a hard reset? It might be a conflict with other software or even a totaly other product causing the problem? Not sure hope this can help you!
Regards
Fudge!
Pocket Plus 2 is installed in my wife's XDA2 with 1.66rom. its almost 3 weeks now and so far no problem. my XDA2's rom is only 1.60.
Hey thanks for info guys.
I will have to try without the today screen pluggin and see if makes any difference.
Boybi, your wifes Xda II which is on the 1.66 ROM, does it have the today screen plugin enabled?
Dave
is the Today Plugin the one where you can put battery and memory bars, and put some icons? if yes, then its enabled.
i too am having problems with the spb pocket plus v2.1 using xda2 with 1.66WWE ROM version. i get hang ups and the unit would do a hard reset. good thing i always do a backup of the contacts and appointments!
aside from Pocket Plus, what other Today Plugins can you guys recommend?
I was wondering what was the lockup caused by. I uninstalled the SPB GPRS and SPB Pocket Plus and now it's ok. No more lockup. I had to hard reset, but couldn't initial find the problem until the trial expired, weird. I guess that's why I bought it.
I find GPRS monitor is OK!!
I have a feeling the Today plugin is the cause as I have had no such crashes since I installed it again with the today screen disabled. What part of it I don't know though.
Boybi, which icons, sliders does your wife have enabled on the plugin?
One thing to note on this, is that SPB update their software silently and don't tell ya about it.
So get the latest build of PocketPlus and try again.
Cheers
my wife's XDA2 just locked-up today! can't turn it on even using soft reset. so i think its really the Pocket Plus! now i disabled the today plugin.
Ooooh Sorry Boybi, I hope I didn't curse you but that sounds like the lockup.
I have been running sweetly for three days without the Today screen plugin for PP2. How long did your wife have the Today screen showing before it locked up? Days? Weeks?
Cheers,
Dave
Possible LOCKUP?
DJWHYTE,
im using pocket plus ver 2.1 on a 1.66 ROM XDA II, just installed it 24 hours ago, no problems so far.
All featured ITEMS enabled, Today Plug-in, File Explorer enhancements, Pocket IE enhancement, Looping Alarm, etc..
Im very disturbed by what I just read in this thread, although I have experienced 1 LOCKUP, it happened while SPB Pocket Plus was NOT YET installed.
Can anyone please advise HOW LONG was the average time FROM installation of pocket plus DID the LOCKUP occur? and what your POCKET PLUS version and ROM versions are?
Certainly would put most of us at ease.
Cheers

With my previous 1.66ITA it worked for about 3 months without troubles (PP 2.0 first and 2.1 later) .
After the upgrade to 1.72.04ITA no chance to install it anymore; it freezes and the only way out is hard resetting. :evil:
Spb team says that they are working on it... hope so, otherwise I will claim for my money back. :evil: :evil:
My experience up to now is that PP is white or black: it works or not, at all. In your case it works, so I would not worry too much... :roll:

Good, now I can sleep better knowing my XDA 2 will still turn on tomorrow when I wake up. Thanks DAVE.
Any other observations out there?
I may DREAM better if there are, hehehe.
my wife's 1.66rom XDA2 runs with PP2.1 for 2 weeks without any problems until yesterday.
maybe other apps?
boybi,
pre,
maybe another app caused the lockup? you havent installed anything new in those two weeks? may i please know what your apps are?
mine are:
1. pocket plus 2.1
2. my calendar
3. pocket zen
4. flash player activeX
5. morphgear
6. calendar plus
7. pocket translator
8. pencil box
9. calc98 and aidem calc
10. betaplayer
11. SB check notifications.
12. vbirthday
just want to know for comparison AND app finger-pointing.
thanks.
I too have had the problem
Ever since I installed the Spb PocketPlus ver 1.x and onward I have had that problem. It occurs rarely but often enough to annoy me (1-2 times/month). It seems to make no difference if I disable the Today screen. I have removed it now. I don't have much other software on it, except for Destinator 3 and a painting program. I won't return to PocketPlus until the issue is solved.

The italian localized 2.1 will not work on the 1.72 ROM, to make it works you need to install the 2.0 and after it the 2.1.
No problems at all

Hi,
i want to use PQz which can remap some keys of the HW keyboard to be CTRL or ALT. So CTRL-C and CTRL-V as on the big brother - PC - is able.
Unfortunatly i get an error message after starting PQz:
Keyboard Hook failed
At first i thought that is Cap-Notify causing the problems and have renamed it from the autostart folder. But it seems that this is not the problem.
Has anybody the progi up and running? For a complete installed prog list of my device see below.
Here are the links to PQz:
http://www.nicque.com/PQz/DOC/index_e.htm
http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...tart=350&sid=bb9aa6276b3535371c550315b7569bc8
Yes it works for me on my Qtek 9100 with PQz not PQzII unfortunatly.
Have you try to install PQz after a hard reset to see if you have the same message with no other apps install. If not try after to install one app after another to see the one who is hooking the keyboard.
No problems here using PQZII on my 8125 with the 2.17 ROM.

I have tried PQy II only. I have deactivated all "critical" apps (Magicbutton, Smallmenu, Smartskey, Capsnotify etc.) to see if this has an impact on PQz2 - but it worked not at all :x
What error message did you get during using PQzII. The same as mine?
I will give PQz one a try
I have solved the problems:
It was PocketBreeze. I have checked the option: only PocketBreeze uses DPAD in the general settings section. After unchecking it, PQz2 works like a charm.
Use with CapsNotify?

Wow! Good catch! Saved me some trouble. (Mine wasn't bombing but D-Pad was inoperable)
Here's another issue. It seems to mess up the CapsNotify tweak. A little square shows up instead of the dot or the circle. Anyone find a setting that takes care of that?
Hi I have just upgraded my rom to Dutty's 3.7 final, and its great. I have done quite a few things after installing it and I have the following problems
1) opera dosent work anymore it runs most of the time but no page ever loads (wifi or 3g) all other programs that use data work fine. I installed opera 9.7beta then uninstalled as it wasnt working very well for me, maybe this broke something?
2) I want to be able to get manilla in landscape, I have tried a few options, duttys enable manilla landscape didnt work for me, flipit didnt work for me for anything either. I tried At0mAng & Danny_and_2 TF3D2 Tweak which dose work but only enables rotation on tf3d and I want control over all my apps(it also seems to disable gsensor in apps that worked before e.g. magic 8ball).
3) related to the last one e java always rotates with the gsensor even when its disabled, which messes up a game i have installed which starts in landscape as default, when i rotate to play the screen messes up rotating and only seeing hale the screen the wrong way round.
4) in buttons I tried enabeling rotate screen via long call press, but it seems my phone wont recognize a long call press no matter what action i ascociate with it. long end works fine though.

1. Opera works fine for me. Just used Opera which came with rom. If your still having problems with your new beta version. Try installing original version again or perform a hard reset to get orginal back.
2. Try using Changescreen
3. Again try Changescreen though I have a few games installed which start in landscape including NFS Undercover & Xtrakt. Both work fine.
4. I remember reading somewhere (do a quick search) that some button functions cannot be altered. Not sure it can change functions as you described for this button. Try AEBPlus

wow thanks for the quick reply, I didnt think one man could have all the answers. One thing where should I get the orginal version of opera from? I want the one with the zoom bar that comes with the rom I assume if I download from operas website it will actually be an older version.
again thanks for the quick and really helpful answer

awesome thanks so much
hello to everybody.
I am experiencing a big slowdown using htc dialer: sometimes it freezes, sometimes the buttons are not functioning even if I press them...and of course when I am phoning...for example I have troubles in pressing the keypad softkey to use the dialer...or to turn on the speaker...
I use the rom in my signature and S2u2 2.34.... no special registry tweaks or strange apps... if I hard reset it works for some hours and after that it starts freezing... I read somewhere it is a know bug of htc dialer... How can I replace it? maybe with another app? using ms dialer? and in this case, how to switch to microsofts' one smoothly?
thanks in advance
all the best
http://www.iconsoft.com/?language=en&menu=62e094db10fc83b1
thanks for the tip.
but does it overwrite completely htc software for calls?
I installed inesoft phone trial software just to check...
I have the same issues, so for sure it is a problem related to WM.
Both htc dialer software and inesoft for sure use the same layer....
ahhhh, wtf....
I'm about 99% sure it has to be something specific to what 3rd party software you've installed, because on the same ROM, I didn't experience this, but I did not use S2u2, so if I had to guess, this would be my first place to look. Have you tried uninstalling S2u2 2.34?
yes, I do mtty everytime I flash, and I flashed so many times I stopped counting.
if this is real (3rd party software in conflict) it's a big problem...
which one? I always installed more or less the same software and if I start to check it manually well, I need 1 week...
thanks for the reply anyway.
I am trying S2u2 now... I will post here news
it seems not to be s2u2 or the colored taskbar I use...
I will try hard reset and then one apps at a time... but when I'll have time.
for now, I can live with it...
I am using hard key for ending call... keypad sometimes works, sometimes not...
uff...
