Ok here's the thing, I downloaded and installed a program from "Skyscape" but couldn't get it working successfully and now can't seem to fully "get rid of it".
Everytime I connect to PC a window briefly pops up (I think its something looking for updates) and everytime I explore my Storage Card through my PC I can see the following folder "Skyscape_Backup".
Everytime I delete it and everytime I plug back in its there again :?
Please Help...
What can I do?
Cheers for any assistance,
marto
How are you deleting it?
Have you used add/remove programs?
After that, check your windows\start up folder and also the program folder it might have been installed in on your device.
If it's still there, it might be a service. Use SKTools to clear that kind of rubbish. Backup first though, danger will robinson, destroy all operating systems...

Yep tried "remove programs" which now no longer lists the problem program, also tried deleting through PC. Can't see anything which has the same sort of name in "windows" and "startup" except maybe (and thats a big maybe) ssdeviceid application.
Can't see anything in my book about SKTools I assume its a download?
Will have a search through the forum database and so on
Thanks for your input V.
Yep, sktools is a download.
Is the window that's popping up on the pc or the pda? You didn't state I think.
Also, check in activesync. beneath where it shows all the syncing progress, does it show anything related to skyscape there?
V
Sorry for the delay V (was trying to figure out how to do screen shots)
Yep the popup is at the PC's end.
I installed SKTools it looks pretty dangerous... is there any particular function from it I should be using?
Cheers, marto

Oops forgot to mention "no" nothing seen in ActiveSync.
Yep, don't worry about sk tools. I thought it made sense that the program was on your pc.
Have you removed the program from your PC?Again, use add/remove programs on pc to remove all trace, then check this program: Autoruns
http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Autoruns.html
Check each tab for possible entries. the program obviously tries to sync itself with the PDA everytime. I hate programs that are so misbehaved and think they know better.
For the PDA, backup often so you can always go back to a clean-ish setup.
V
Hmm no success looking with Auotruns, and nothing in "Add/remove".
Was thinking while crashed out on the sofa that I might try to install it all again then uninstall it in a more stable way (I think I may have done it a bit all over the place) otherwise might blast off an email to there support....
Another day more time to play... :lol:

This happens all the time and the only way to fix it is a soft-reset. I haven't really been able to find the cause. The OS will eventually give a Memory Critically Low Warning, too, and will have 3 or 4 instances of the Phone app.
Running the stock T-Mobile Wing Rom. Have others experienced this? Is flashing a Custom Rom with updated WM the answer?
I have the same problem, but I just kill the phone app with process manager. Phone, Tmail, and Poutlook are the worst memory hogs, but I need them. Is there a rom out there similar to the stock one that can fix these?
If you are not to sure about flashing a ROM then
If you dont use myFaves, then install the following .Delete MyFaves
It eliminates the myfaves shortcut from startup and hence loading it in memory. I have not seen the "Memory Critically Low" problem since then and I dont have to reboot the phone 3-4 days after normal use (messaging, mail, calendar, calls)
If you are comfortable with flashing, try Aserg's rom. Its awesome. Skype used to make my phone crawl. With his ROM, I can multitask with Skype running.
If Your Worried About The Mem Hogs You Can Flash To A Custom Rom I Have Never Encountered That Problem Afterwards
Plus The Stock Rom Is Garbage Anyways
(dont Mind The Caps)
I have 20mb of free ram on the stock rom, with Quick menu, SPB Mobile shell, and Skype running. I haven't seen a critical memory message since december, so I guess it's not quite the same problem... It just annoys me that the phone and mail apps take so much memory. I just haven't found a rom that is similar enough to the stock one, or learned enough about wm6 to write my own, yet.
Chris, goto \windows\ and make a \startupdisabled folder. Then move everything except what you use (like s2u2 etc...) from \windows\startup to \windows\startupdisabled. Then memory will just be a nusance, not a critical error.
I am trying to install the registry editor PHM Reg Edit. I've copied the MSI file I downloaded to the memory card but when I click it I get this message - There is no application associated with PHMRegEdit.
Any ideas? Do I need to install an unzip program?
Run the MSI from your pc with the phone connected - it will install it on your device. You can only install files on your handset via .cab files.

I did try that first and it installed on my PC but not the phone? I can't find it anywhere!
I'm connected via active sync, I'm assuming that's right?

Well, then you should be prompted with the choice of installing the software...Anyway, if you run the msi on your PC, you now have somewhere on your hard disk, the cab for regedit, you can copy it to your SD and install it from there directly on the HD2
you could also download the cab instead of the msi

Yes I'm prompted but doesn't give the option to choose the phone. After installing it on the PC I tried running setup and I get a box popup asking me to add/remove programs on the phone?
Screenshot below are the files that it's installed on the PC, nothing is on the phone?!!

First, get the game on your Phone!
If it's not available in your country, you can change your operator with Market Enabler (to T-mobile for example) and one of the 3 versions listed by EA will become compatible with your phone.
Run Worms and let it download it's database in sdcard/android/data/com.ea.worms_NA_vzw
Create a folder called com.ea.worms_na if it's not there already and paste the content from the one above inside it.
You should now have an identical content in the two folders and the same size ~34mb each.
Then locate your worms.apk file (com.ea.worms...).It should be in or data/app; if it's not go to your program manager and select "move to phone".
Then paste the folders in sdcard/android/data on your tablet and worms.apk anywhere you like and install it.
Voila, you have worms! Don't forget to say thanks if you enjoy this game too
Let's see how long it takes for EA to "port" since the only thing that's not in place is the cross-hair, it's a little too big but the game is totally playable.
ill try (did this on my nook) but since the last update the game doesnot even start up
Make sure you have the two folders synched right, the app is bugged and doesn't do that by itself.
If anything else fails, delete the folders, uninstall, start over.
I use a Appkik Backup to get the .apk, then I email it to myself from the phone.
On the tab, I download the app and install it from email.
Same process, but easier (the backup .apk's are always in the same folder) and it's wireless. Plus some paid apps are hidden.
Then occasionally I will plug my phone into my PC and make a copy of the backup folder. Then all apps are on my PC should I clean sweep and want to reinstall all of them.
I have tried this several ways, but it tries to download the files to support and then says unsupported device. Any suggestions?
OK - after playing around I finally got it to work. Do I need to install anything to get the sound to work? No luck here.

i had a problem like this, probably not related but ill explain anyway now that ive mentioned it
*linking a .lnk directly to the "advanced" tab caused me to have issues like the one your having = unable to make/edit a connection.
*for some reason it needs to load the connection in "tasks" before showing it in "advanced" so linking me .lnk to the "tasks" tab fixed my issue.
however, i suggest you run the htc connection setup, or ConnectionSetupAuto.exe.
this will add a new connection and youl be able to see/edit the connection settings

Hardly, I suppose. The menu interface should be visible without any connection setup. Example - stock rom for any non-htc device.
My old Asus has no first boot setup or whatever like my Leo but Connection menu interface is available for manual setup.
It looks like either OP has problems with mui, or some "interface tweaks" had ruined the menu....
Suggestions:
1. Check mui
2. Do not cook in your custom tsk and all graphic custom **** and try to make close to stock rom.
Greetings. Well my connection was added but i wasnt see it
I find the solution, the problem was in the .rgu in ExtendedPkg from oem directory was changed by mistake. im using osbuilder. im just dump again my stock rom and change it, Now work fine.
Thanks all
Hello
My girlfriend borrowed her dads HD2, and now it stopped working. She talked to him and most likely it requires an update of Android.
I'm usually pretty tech-savvy, but the language spoken on this forum is beyond my comprehension.
So, I have a HD2 with both win & Android installed. To boot into Android i need to go into windows and press two files on the SD-card: "CLRCAD" & "HARET".
The files look like this in Windows (pc):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Her dad mentioned Boxmax 6.5, so I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100560
The files I downloaded from there looks pretty similar, aside from a few additions on the phone.
Downloaded the SD-one, but now i'm lost.
How do I update the phone? Just overwrite the files with the new ones or clean install? If it's a clean install, how do i do it? Do i need to backup something?
Backup all files on the SD card to a safe place (pc).
Delete folder Android on the card.
Copy the Android folder from the archive you downloaded.
Pop the SD card back into HD2, and start Android from winMo (clrcad, haret) or better yet install the exceller autoboot.
Thanks alot, sounds easy enough
When i pop the things back on the SD-card from the backup-folder, I still need to install all the apps and widgets again right?
Edit: Oh, and what about all her messages? Are they stored on the phone?

Yeah, you usually use titanium backup, heh.
sent from my phone using my fingers
Thanks so far for all the help, I got it working fine except, and this might be a really n00bish question, how do I turn off the phone?
Nevermind, found Quickboot
