wizard very slow

Hi all,
I am so frustrated with my k-jam. Once I install anything on it like wisbar2 or button mapper or anything it gets so terribly slow that it's totally unusable. it's rediculous how long i have to wait to be able to make a darn phonecall.
anyone knowing a way around this problem?
thanks
Andrew

there must be something wrong, i have the k-jam & a total of 20 apps are installed on it, without being that slow, on the contrary, i thought it would be slower than this, but it's pretty nice.
do you have the latest rom installed on it?

yep, i have 1.6.7 or something like that running on it.
what apps do you have running on it?

But it depends also on how many appl are running at that moment...

Wisbar is still only a beta release for WM5 devices so that may not help. Are your other installed applications all labelled as WM5 compatible by the publishers?
Do you still have the AntiVirus installed / running?

do you have the anti-virus program running thats in your Extended_Rom?

thank you all for your help.
nooooo, i got rid of the antivirus as soon as i figured out how to.
actually right now i don't have anything special running.
what do you all think about the wisbar advanced desktop? would it slow things down big time?
thanks again
Andrew

here are the installed apps on my kjam.
for the wisbar advance desktop, i beleive its not supported on wm5 yet, i tried to install the version available on their website and the result was a total freeze, i had to uninstall it eventually.

correction...
i found there's is an update for the wisbar advance. i'm gonna try it and see.

guys, i have a wizard (T-Mobile Vario) and i notice it sometimes responds slowly to things if i click on them, but i didnt know it had an antivirus built into it, can you tell me where it is and how to get rid of it?, Thanks

You should be able to remove it via the Remove Programs applet in Settings on your Vario, or via ActiveSync when connected. Think it's published by eTrust..

I don't have anything from eTrust in my "Remove Programs" list... Are you sure?

as i recall i was only able to get rid of the antivirus thing by upgrading the rom. but maybe if you can find which on it is you can just remvoe the file from the extended rom and do a hard reset.

Some of the earlier iMate shipped ROMs didn't show eTrust in the Remove Programs applet so they provided a patch to make it show up. I would have had the same problem, but managed to kill the install when first setting up.

"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.

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

SIM Toolkit doesn't exit

Please help.
My SIM Toolkit works ok but whenever I want to exit, it wont, it just keep on displaying, covering my Today screen and I can't get rid of it unless I do a softreset. And since it stays, when I try using it, it doesn't respond anymore. i think it's technically dead but it just wasn't able to clean-up the user interface as it exits. Although i can still work on my other programs, the thought of it hindering my Today screen is just irritating. I hope you could help me on this guys. It started when I upgraded to SE

hi guys!
anyone who has this same problem? is it caused by a 3rd-party program? or anyone who's using PPC SE (XdaJojo) who doesn't have this problem? So i would know that it's one of my 3rd party programs that is causing it

mine always did that
but then i never used it
a task manager would prob fix it

thank rudegar,
i tried hardresetting my xda, without the extrom. just plain PPC SE. and guess what? the SIM toolkit worked just fine. when i restore my backup, it's back to its freezing issue. my problem now is to find the 3rd party program that is causing it to hang-up. i hope it works by gradually removing my programs one by one. tsk tsk tsk, that's not gonna be easy

well mine did it with the ext rom which my qtek2020 was shipped with
too

Cannot open pics & videos (orig. WM5)

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

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?

Shortcuts all have the same 'icon' after installing G-alarm

Shortcuts all have the same 'icon'.
Here's is what I did, I installed G-alarm and I get a following message after installing this app. "your device seems to be at risk to have the windows alarm bug". I told me to restart so I did.
Nothing weird happend after that but I didn't test the application.
I installed sprite backup after that and made a backup.
All went well and backup was made.
Now I was installing Western Europe maps for TomTom. The process was fine and when I unplugged the HTC from my PC for testing TomTom I saw that all my shortcuts changed in the same way. (shortcut icon blue outside, white inside)
And I tried the Icon but it didn't launch any program so ... I went towards the install dir from my appz and all normal .exe files where still working so something f**ked up my shortcuts.
I tried soft reset but when starting up the HTC i get much errors from application G-alarm.
Anyone knows my problem?

I removed all programs who'd give errors. Replaced all shortcuts also.
Seems to be working so far.
Anyone has an id where I can remove registery entries from uninstalled software?

SK Tools can do the job quite well, as far as I have used it.
