Contact & Calener Soft Key Won't Display - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Hi,
I installed the program DciNobar to "play around" with tweaking my K-Jam. I wanted to bring them back so I tried to uninstall the program from Add/Remove programs and it gave an error and asked me if I wanted to remove it from the list which I selected yes to.
I have since installed SoftKeyAppletEX which has given me the option to reset everything to default or remap the keys manually which I have done yet they still do not show on my screen.
I'm thinking that the DciNobar is still starting up, but don't know where to find the key in the regsitry to remove it.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Ari

Not to worry found the solution. Removed dcinobar from the windows startup directory

Uninstall PhonePlus! 2004 v3.04 SE

Is there anybody knows how to uninstall PhonePlus! v3.04 SE. The Phone Dialpad skin cannot be uninstall by every method including Remove/Re-install, Patch Registry etc... Seems like this software has a secret connection to the phone dialing Green button that other programs cannot alternate it. :twisted:

I ever used that program but don't like it and i uninstalled it. Here how to uninstall it:
1. Open the program go to setting.
2. (A bit forgot) but just looking for optiion about hardware botton assign.
3. Set to don't assign button
4. Soft resset
5. Uninstall the phone plus
Good Luck
Yep, I guess that should do the trick.
but if the trial period had ended and you cant go to the option screen, you can delete "ppcap" fuke from /windows/startup folder, reset the device, and then uninstall.
great software by the way.
Both,
Thanks for the help. I finally can uninstall it and the tricks was the ppcap shortcut in the windows\startup directory that the uninstall program did not get rid of by itself. :lol:

Help: can't uninstall programs from jasjar

I am unable to uninstall programs from my jasjar. When I try to remove programs from activesyn there is no response. When I try to remove programs directly from jasjar with "remove programs" I get the response that the program was not removed and would I like to remove the name of the program from the list of installed programs. Either way my programs cannot be removed. Can anyone help me with this problem?
Thanks
Softreset first then uninstall... Some times you can not uninstall two apps after each other. You have to softreset before each removal...
I tried your suggestions several times but it does not work for me. Any other thoughts?
Thanks
WM5 doesn't flush the registry until the device is powered off. You should either use a software based reset button - such as from SPB PocketPlus, or turn the device off (this is better), wait 10 seconds and then press the reset button.
Still no luck
I tried resetting after leaving the jasjar shut for more than 10 seconds and still I have no luck removing programs either directly or via activesync. I would still appreciate any suggestions otherwise it looks like a hard reset is unavoidable.
Thanks, a
Other way to remove programs?
Is it possible to effectively remove programs by using resco explorer? And if so, how can you ensure a clean remove?
A.
I have the same problem, I always have to remove manually. I can not install overwrite any software, and when I want to upgrade a new version, I have to find its old cab files to see the list of files to find them and delete. Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.
Still no solution to removing programs
I was wondering if anyone has found a solution to our problem of not being able to remove programs.
Also, as we cannot remove programs via activesync or the standard remove programs from the pocket pc (Jasjar), what are the steps to thoroughly remove files manually?
Thanks
@apap
I found some beta WM5 apps cannot be removed even using Remove apps from the control panel or even the "delete" function from the File explorer! In the end I had to hard reset my JJ to get rid off two apps. I have also been told to use the Resco Explorer to delete programs from the directory directly.
Thanks. When you delete with Resco is it enough to remove folder with application or should you also clear things from registry?

How do I remove from Program list?

Hi I installed a program that did not work with WM5, I subsequently removed it using the Remove Program amplet.
However it still shows on the Program page.
How do I remove it from there?
Don't install non-WM5 compatible apps - it could seriously harm your blood pressure when you find you machine no longer works!
Look here for apps that should work:

Thanks for the help?
The program was reported as working on wm5.
The list does answer the question does it
Try a soft reset.
I had to do a hard reset once because I found apps were removed from the Programs list but were not really removed from the device.
Soft reset does not clear it
So will have to 2wait until I completly mess it up and have to do a Hard reset :lol:
Have you tried:
open file explorer
windows - start menu - programs
and deleted the shortcut from there?
this has happened to me when I have removed some apps and it has left the shortcut in programs

prob uninstalling software

hey guys. i seem to be havin a wierd problem. when ever i try to uninstall a program from my exec i get a msg that it could not be completely removed. i tried to uninstall the o2 active interface and a pocket divx player and both gave the same prob. any suggestions on wat i might be doin wrong? also can u suggest sme place i can get good games for my exec
cheers
i have had this problem, nothing I could do about it, exept to manually delete the stuff, but obviously registry is still a problem.
also, it appears if you restore from a backup, then the remove programs doesnt work, something to do with the installed apps in windows directory and the registries
sorry, no help, only confirmation and acknowledgement of the problem....
Worth looking into SKTools....It properly uninstalls things where the installer fails...I have found it invaluable when trying out software that is 'not quite' WM5 compatible!
This generally works for me:
- Uninstall program.
- If it complains about being unable to uninstall, click "No" when you're asked if you want to remove from Remove Programs list.
- Now do a soft reset with a utility such as Tweaks2k2
- When pda is ready to be used, try to run Uninstall Program again.
This should work for all but the most tenacious of programs. If this still doesn't work, check if the program has a stub running in the Windows\Startup folder. Remove it, and then try the above again.
Things that work for me.
1) Do not have a shortcut on the today screen to a program you wish to un-install, remove it first from here and the Start (menu). Make sure that part of it is not started automatically in /Windows/StartUp folder, if it is delete it.
2) Do a soft reset.
3) Do not go to Start (menu) | Programs. (Do not display it's icon in anyway. See step 1 above.
4) Go at once to Start (menu) | Settings | System | Remove Programs and un-install it.
This generally works for me. Hope it helps.
i agree with dah54 and snorbaard. That usually works for me almost everytime. If it doesn't check running processes and stop the one you are trying to uninstall and then follow their instructions and if all else fails, use SKTools or something similar.

Help, newly installed programs not displayed in "Add/Remove Programs"!

This problem has happened to me a few times with different ROMs but I haven't be able to find the pattern nor the solution!
Basically everything starts very well, when I install a new program it appears in "Add/Remove Programs" in Settings. Then at some point strange thing happens, when I install a new program (any program, not specific) it no longer appears on the list! However, I can see it as installed and it actually appears on the "Add/Remove Programs" of ActiveSync(v4.2)! I can remove it by using ActiveSync but not on the device because I can't select it!
And the other strange thing is, I can see the program's folder under "\Windows\AppMgr\" (every program installed manually should has its folder in here as I understand). And I can also see it under the registry "\HKLM\Security\AppInstall\". It just DOES NOT appear on the device "Add/Remove Programs" list! This happens to all programs after the problem starts but those installed before that point are still displayed!
I am wondering if anyone knows the reason why this happens and if there is any solution like registry hack anything like? Although this is not the end of the day as I can still remove them via ActiveSync, it does annoys me because of the fact that I can't remove it directly from the device.
Thanks in advance!!
Try sk tools software , it has a detailed info for add or remove prog.
Hi,
I have the same problem, not certain what caused it, but you can get items back in the list by following the steps below:
Get programs back into uninstall list:
1) go to..
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\AppInstall\
2) Select the application directory that is not showing up in the list
3) Change the DWORD Role data from 40 to 24
4) Now the application will show up in the list.
Cheers
Rowan
Excellent!!
Thanks a lot for the advices guys!!
I will try Rowan's suggest first because it is easier and sounds good to me! Only thing is I have flashed my Universal so currently the problem is gone. I will try it if it happens again or I may try it on my Windows Mobile Device Emulator later on.
