Hi everybody I have a huge irritating problem. I have a t-mbile mda and I have the latest rom and radio installed. After a soft reset everything boots up fine then after a few hours the tmail.exe. opens on the screen. I go to start menu settings click on memory and stop the tmail form running and bam it opens on its own again almost immediatley. Ive tried task managers and nothing seems to keep this tmail from opening on the today screen. I know it runs in the process area, but it opens itself after a few hours. Please help.
I cant close this app.
Have you tried checking the notification queues to see if it had itself inside there?

Yes I checked no Tmail.exe listed but this is what is listed:
\\notification\namedevemts\vcpowerwakeupevent
\windows\calupd.exe
\windows\timewizard.exe
calnot.exe..........start on timer
calnot.exe..........start after restore from backup
calnot.exe..........start if time changes
clocknot.exe.......start on timer
clocknot.exe.......start if time changes
clocknot.exe.......start after restore from backup
repllog.exe..........start on timer
repllog.exe..........repllog.exe
repllog.exe..........start if time changes
repllog.exe..........start if RS232 connection has been detected
These are all listed in notification queue via SKtools.
Thanks

Hey thanks for the help. I tried that too. Didnt work either, after a few hours tmail popped up and would'nt let me close it.
I even did a hard reset and it still popped up and would'nt close.
I installed everything on my storage card but I didnt do a format on the card I just reinserted after the hard reset and created shortcuts from programs that were installed on the card.
I think if this happens again I will format the card and do a hard reset and do a reinstall of everything.
I was just hoping someone out there had the same problem.

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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32698
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

Help is needed. I tried to install PocketStocks this morning. It would not install and now I can not install or delete anything from my 8125. I can run what is on it, but I can not add or remove anything. I have soft reset and tried multiple times to connect by USB but it will not sync. But it will let me "Explore" my hardware.
The Microsoft Active Sync troubleshooter is no help at all.
Any ideas?

Hi i am familiar with pocketstocks but it looks like it buggered your device. What error message came up and how far into the install did it get? Just wondering are there any residual files to remove - check program files and windows\startup and registry if you are used to doing that. What error comes up when you try to install anything? You may need to backup important files and do a hard reset to solve this.
I had tried to install Pocket Financial Analyzer just before it, and that did not complete the install. So when I did the Pocket Stocks, it finished up by saying that PFA install was unsuccessful. I have had this happen before but a soft reset and reinstall usually made it work. I kind of do not think Pocket Stocks is the culprit.
I suspect that there is a corrupted system file, and maybe if I knew which one it was, I could delete it and a soft reset would rebuild the file.
Or like you said, I may have to do a hard reset and start all over. And that is OK. I have done this about five times before, but everything is working so good on the phone right now, that I hesitate to mess that up. I just can't add or delete any programs.
Its so weird, at first the name of my phone would not come up. Then I deleted Active Sync 4.1 and installed AS 4.2 beta. Now I can get the device name to show up, but still the list of installed programs does not show and I can't sync it.

I agree there probably is a corrupt file somewhere - I would do all the checks I said and notification queue for good measure - but it looks like hard reset time. Recommend you invest in spb backup or sprite backup - then it all becomes so easy! Everybody that joins this forum should have to buy one - before entering the forum - lol!
I had SPB Backup trial. But everyone was saying that the ROM upgrades made the backup invalid since there were registry changes that may not correspond with the new registry.
So I did not use it again. I heard that SKTools has a backup built in. NO?
Which one is the best to use?
Thanks

Sktools has a limited backup, so its not that useful. Sprite backup is good as you can use it even with a rom upgrade and is now wm5 compatible.
Is there any way to boot a Wizard into a safe mode?
I dont want to hard reset , it boots, I put it my passcode and THEN it hangs, so it boots but something is killing it before it fully loads.
I think its the today screen itself that is hanging in, is there any way to disable/remove today plugins through active sync ? Add/Remove programs wont work, so am thinking I could probably disable the plugins and then reboot.....
If when you boot the phone and it hangs, it is still visible by Activestink, you could do in to your phone and remove the plugin files... then reboot, and if that in fact was causing the problem you might be ok.
Otherwise you'll be hard resetting. Hope you made a backup!
Yeah, it syncs if I dont put the password in. Only thing I would lose would be my SMS messages which haven't been backed up in a while. Bugger will be getting a new license for Opera.
Any idea where the plugins files are?
The thing that broke it was I installed O2 plus. I re-enabled RhinoStats cause I wanted to know how much CPU was taking, and I think it was the combo of these two things which broke it.
If I hold the power key down it does ask if I want to turn off my device, which is "nice"..... it's not dead but it certainly doesnt do much.
It wont add/remove programs, it gets half way through then dies.
ANd what happens if you break a today plugin? Does it fail to load and then have windows clean up after itself? Or does it royally break things?
Wont let me delete the rhinostats dll file and I dont know which O2 files I can delete so I shall not be touching those.
Have removed the sim card, will see if that helps get it into some sort of working state so I can fix the problems it seems to be having. -> Answer, no. Just shows a different screen when it gets round to breaking.
Any more ideas?
Ok, I dont know how I managed to do it, but this time (having now re-inserted my sim and removed the 2Gb SD card) it didn't immediatly die.
I cant explain it, I dont know if this is a coincidence, but I have now de-installed O2 plus and disabled all the today plugins I could find. I shall now be running a new backup.....
Now let's see if it dies.....
On a side note, anyone know of a way of exporting all the SMS messages in a format that is readable by a desktop computer (preferably via notepad/nano)?
if u want to backup ur sms msgs, there is a file called cemail.vol.
copy it to ur storage card, hard reset, then copy iy back again.

Hi Mohammad, i can't copy/paste it as it is locked by something. How to do it?
Regards...
try renaming the current cemail.vol to anything ..like cemail.volx then copy the old cemail.vol into the same directory where the new cemail.vol resides. soft reset.

but how can i backup the "old" one? as i said it is locked so i can't copy it...
btw: even renaming does not work because of the file being locked...
Tried checking it on my phone, and yes it can't, i guess this only works with Smartphones. I'm sorry for that.

Hi all,
something strange happened to my XDA (O2 ROM v2.21.4.101):
* my "remove programs" list is now completelly empty, even if I have many programs installed and running!
* I can no longer install any new program ("exe" or "cab") - installation starts, but always ends with unsuccessful message
* active sync 4.2 no longer connects!!
Apart from this, everything seems to be in order.
Any help/hints would be mostly appreciated, trying to avoid an always painfull "hard reset"...
Thanks!
Hm, have you tried updating your ROM? That would reset your phone and update it so it should work...
But you would loose your contacts etc as you cant sync now? Hmmm

modify the registration:
HKLM\ControlPanel\AdminPassword\Group=0x1(1)
delete the key "Redirect"
Than soft restart. You'll find a "Policy" or "Stratagy" icon in the "System" page of the "Setting" window. Clear the checkbox of restriction.
Thanks for the info - unfortunatelly, I already did an hard reset to the PDA. I will keep it for future reference, though

just for the record that check box was already clear when I looked at it and it didn't do anything for me
Had to do a restore from a back up a couple weeks ago. damn it.
Mine did it after a corrupt install. SOB.
The values basically haven't changed the behavior...
Hi all,
I have copied the values exactly as they were, but still nothing happens...furthermore my ActiveSync on the MDA Vario seems not to recognise any connections, even when the phone is connected with the ActiveSync of the PC. Is there any way maybe to reinstall only the phone portion on ActiveSync in the MDA? I downloaded a file "activesync.exe" from the ftp server. is it the pocketpc portion of activesync?
Thx a lot
Hello my fellow Xperia lovers......and some haters! lol
Simple question....is there a way to remove a program upon a soft reset? I ask this because, i uninstalled the Inhand catolog thing, and when i do a soft reset, it comes up that the program InHandGo.exe could not be found and did not start up....which i don't really care, but i dont want to see that message every time i need to do a soft reset ><. So is there a way to either get rid of that message when soft reset is done, or just some how, fully and cleanly remove that program? I dont really see the point in having it....

The shortcut to InHandGo.exe remains in the startup folder after an uninstall. Just remove this shortcut and you won't get that error message again.
yup just remove that shortcut in \Windows\Startup and you are good to go!
That's also the program I have uninstalled first thing. Useless piece of crap!
How do i get into the \windows\ startup sorry? Im pretty much lost at this point...
EDIT:No wait....sorry....lol i figured it out...
Use the file explorer and go to \my device\windows\startup. It is just so simple!
Interestingly, I'm still experiencing the same behavior after I "uninstalled" that app and yet, when I went and check the Startup directory, there was no entry to In HandUpdater.
The error message I'm getting is "The file 'InHandUpdater' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
What am I doing wrong? Seeing the startup sequence halted because of this makes me want to go back and reinstall the darn thing - just so that I no longer see it.
Please advise. Thanks.
Have you tried installing the application again and then uninstalling. And then you have this program. Cleartemp is the name. It might help with cleaning all stuff left behind.
Same problem here :-(.
There is no shortcut for it in \windows\ startup and the message still comes up whenever I do restart the device!
How to re-install it?
OK, I reinstalled it and the message disappeared ;-)
To install go to "My Device/Program files/Handango Inhand/catalog" and run the file "inhand.cab"
