HELP...need to get rid of smartskey

I put smartskey and omap onto my mda...it wasn't working properly so I uninstalled it....
there are no visible signs of the programs on my device but everytime my device wakes up or powers on i get this:
Notification Error
Cannot execute "windows/start/menu/newfoldr/smarskey.exe"
then behind it i get
Notification Error
Cannot execute "smartskey/snartskey.exe"
I just want this to be off of my device since it has been so much trouble. Can someone please help me figure out how to get rid of this without having to do a hard reset?

\windows\startup
remove it from there...
and also remove the smartskey folder where you installed it from...

i did that...nm i ended up doing a hard reset. I deleted the program and folder...there were no visible traces...idk what happened

I had this problem too. Extremely frustrating especially since I had removed all traces (so I thought) of smartskey.
Turns out, Smartskey leaves behind a notification message that gets queued up even if you remove the program and it's shortcut from the startup menu. You need a program like MemMaid to clear the notification message.

Annoying Smartskey issue, PLEASE help

I also have this problem on a Wizard and a Prophet. Even though you remove 'all traces' of Smartskey it keeps coming up wuth the queued notification message. Does anyone have a fix for this?
I tried using MemMaid demo about a week ago but it wouldn't install on the Wizard. I might try it on the Prophet. Can anyone confirm that if I buy the full MemMaid software it will remove this annoying issue i.e. does it run & install on WM5 XDA's?

MemMaid is WM5 compatible. I use it on my Wizard without problem.
EDIT:
Re uninstalling smartskey - I thought there was a specific way to uninstall it mentioned in the smartskey thread? Does this not work?

Just tried MemMaid (demo) on the Prophet. It cleared the problem straight away. Went back to the Wizard and MemMaid also worked on that, both machines now clean of the Smartskey notification message. Now that I know how to remove the message I might play around with Smartskey some more. The Smartskey concept is quite good but it seems to interface badly with Omapclock (might just be Microsoft's buggy notification software).
MemMaid also looks a good utility for $15. I think originally I might have been trying to run the MemMaid (installation) exe from the Wizard rather than installing over ActiveSync.

hi, i use smartskey and omap together and they both work beautifully with each other, my device is quicker thanks to omap clock and the wizard is excellent as a one handed device thanks to the shortcuts it creates just like the prophet device where it creates ur soft keys to be the start button and OK button as well.....its like having 2 extra keys just like the prophet.......you can also use the software Check Notifications 1.9 by ScaryBearSoftware to get rid of the smartskey.exe from the notifications queue......

MemMaid v. Smartskey
I installed Smartskey, and it was unhappy. Then the bloody "Notification Error..." started popping up consistantly.
Reinstalled Smartskey, no help.
Uninstalled, No Help.
Looked it up here, Installed MemMaid
Problem Solved.
BTW- Reinstalled Smartskey and OmapClock and they work wonderfully. My initial eror was installing to the SD Card and not main memory.
Thanks for the fix.

Booting very slowly. Any advice...?

I have the Black 2.0 an Radio 1.40 and Oli 1.40, and I installed "MenMaid" and the SPV M3100 boots very slowly 8-10 minutes, and then it works the same, 2 days ago I had the same problem with MENMAID, and uninstalled and made several soft reset and extract the battery at the end it works well like allways, but now I made the same but it very slowly.
Please Could you tell me any advise?
Thanks.

what does this program do? have you tried it on any other ROMS?

I presume you mean Memmaid? I don't use it but it cleans out memory, notifications etc etc. I'm just wondering if it has a setting to auto clear memory or do some sort of clean up on bootup. If it does, perhaps you need to uncheck that setting?? (Only guessing!)

Sorry the program name is Memmaid, like say Mikechannon. Is allow to clear the memory, registry etc. is like Sktools but I thing less powerful.
I didn´t try with other roms, because I have few time, and I haven´t got any time to recharge and configure all software, althougt at the end I will have to do.

Yes, you at right, is Memmaid. Is posible that has this funcion (cleun up on bootup), but I uninstalled, This haven´t got to happen. No?
-What can I do?
-Can I boot in Secure boot, will do anything? I try it, but say that push the action key (Which is the action key?).
-What will be the best way to change the Rom?
Very tranks for your attention.

Strange I'ved used Memmaid with most WM6 roms without problems.
You've uninstalled and the issue persists? And you are sure it's Memmaid and not anything else? What version of Memmaid are you using?
I guess you could reinstall the newest version (or another suitable program) and check the bootup apps/services and remove some them to see if that helps. While running what services/prog are running??
If not then a HR and see if the issue is really related to Memmaid.

Thanks BorisTheSpider, the version is 1.61., And now it is lower, the last action was to made a Backup with SKTools, but when boot, at the end appear the main windows, but no respons (or very slow).
Now I disconnect the battery, and I am going to remove apps/services
in bootup, but I don´t know each programs made. If I can I will show the apps/services in bootup for help somebody.
Thanks.

Hmm...the problem might be your version, it's quite old. I am running V1.72, PM me if you need the app. I think you should HR to see if the OS is the issue or the apps are the issue.

Thanks for your answering BorisTheSpider. At the end, I made a HR, but I belive to know which is the problem.
I can see that I have 1500 Mbytes used in my SD_Card, but really only had 1100 Mbytes in files. I formatted the SD_Card, but the S.O. say that is used 975 Mbytes and others 900 Mbytes free, I couldn´t format the SD, At the end I could formats the SD with one utility "Format Memorys".
I thought that my real problems could be the SD. I read in this forum that is very common this problem, if used the on/off button to switch off the device and if in bootup is the sddaemon.lnk.
Thanks for your interesting.
I am going to send you a PM.

slow
hey same problem here im using prophet WM5 but the boot time is too long. guess it's because of the slow processor. but it's obviously slower than i first use it. now that i've installed so many things...
but 1 thing is whenever i open the windows folder, it takes like 10 mins to open the folder. is there any rubbish inside any1 removed safely and helps?
any1 has this file called 'cemail' on mydevice ? it's 1.87mb and i dont know what is it's function and it's always there.... too space consuming

Yes, opening the Windows folder is slow - this is due to all the files which are to be displayed.

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?

Device Lock on wake up

Hi there,
I am using SPB pocket plus and mobile shell. I love the device Lock they feature but the program only allows you to activate it manually. I would like to have the device lock (not interested in downloading any new programs, had S2U2 and it was ...alright...) activate when I press the power key to waken. I thought I read somewhere that one can use memmaid (which I have) to do this, however I am having difficulty finding good instructions for this. If not memmaid is there another approach? thank you for your time....
-MA

p.s. I am running WM6 on an Alltel 6800

anyone help?

I accidentally enabled this on my Kaiser by
1) flashing a rom with S2Unlock cooked in...
2) then installing the cab file on top of this...
3) and finally uninstalling S2Unlock.
this somehow removed the program itself, but enabled the Windows device lock to automatically come on by itself everytime I turn my device back on. So it would seem that it at least "can" be done, although be it very indirectly.

hmm... interesting... yeah not the way I want to go but glad it can be done. I read somewhere that one can activate it as a start up program using memmaid... I just don't know where the program is located to have it start it up... You would think there would be a registry change that could do it as well...

easy
there are many programs to do that.. basicly program either waits for wm_suspend message and then queues vk_f22 or program sits in notification queue waiting for event vm_resuming and then invokes vk_f22, see ie

important overclock question

Hello, just got my htc wing and installed the juststable 6.1 rom and love it! i installed batterystatus version 0.4, dont know if theres a newer one or not.
Anyway, my question is: im overclocking the wing right now at 247, and its nice! however how do i keep the overclock going at all times, even after it goes to sleep and then wakes up, or goes to standby, or even after a soft/hard restart, i would like it to automatically go back to 247 mhz. is there a way to achieve this with batterystatus or a new version of batterystatus? or is there a different overclocking program i could install and use that would do this for me if BS doesnt do it.

someone? please?

HomeScreen++ has checkboxes called "Overclock after reboot" and "Overclock on Wakeup".

is homescreen++ a program?? or is that a feature in batterystatus?
