The problem i have is whenever i open a text message the page is scrolled all the way down. I have to scroll up to read the message.
It is an XDA Exec running WM6 and works fine after a hard reset but after some time it starts again. I suspect some software may have changed a setting somewhere but it never happens straight away after all my software is installed. I can do a hard reset install all software then its fine for some time then all of a sudden it starts.
Has anyone else had this happen or know any possible solutions ?
yup, happened to my hermes when i upgrade it with WM6, seems to be some aplication that we installed that makes that error. without solution i hardreset my handset, install the progie one by one and looking the messanging for any error, continuing till all the apps are installed, spb backup it at last
Hi thanks for the reply.
If you find anything please let me know.
I have tried the installing one at a time and checking but everything was fine. Then all of a sudden it started doing it and i am sure i had not installed anything else.
I will probably try again but i do not have the time at the moment.

I am encountering the same frustrating lockup at the windows boot screen using either the O2 Rom or the Dec T-Mobile Rom. Any number of attempts to soft reset or remove battery and reset are having no effect and only a hard reset gets the phone working again.
The problem arises after I have installed third party software. All the software installed fine and is working 100% ok. If I then remove the battery ie to change the sim card. Put back the battery and switch on all I get is the Blue Windows Mobile screen and WM5 will not load.
Anyone encountered the same problem and know how to resolve it?
All I can think of is that some piece of software is causing the problem. Maybe trial and error ie install one programme then soft reset to test if WM5 boots properly will identify if a particular piece of software is causing the boot lockup.
I had the same problem on a MDA vario, have you got pocket plus installed?
if so its still good to use, but the safe mode option is not WM5 compliant, once installed, just edit the spb options and untick safe mode checkbox, now on soft reset it wont hang
Spot on!! Last night by process of elimination I discovered that the culprit was indeed SPB Pocket Plus.
Without that prog installed everything is fine and dandy. Install it and lock up occurs on soft re-boot.
I used the latest version of Pocket Plus as well which is supposed to be WM5 compliant.
thanks for that information, i got my kjam yesterday and installed pocket plus last night and i haven't reset it yet and when i was reading this i was thinking... "let me reset my device and see if it hangs" but i decided not to and go ahead and untick the safe mode option hahaha.

LOL !!!
You are answering to a post almost 2 years old,they must have solved the problem or upgraded to a new Rom or even changed their phones.Plz check the date and thread before posting.
There's no fun invoking old posts just for the sake of posting,lol
PLZ !!! READ MY WORDS..... " DON'T SPAM "
I hope you guys can help?
I upgraded my rom without a hitch on Saturday from the O2 website, however whenever I click the sounds tab in "sounds and notifications" my exec hangs. A soft reboot does not help. All thoughts appreciated.
Have you tried a hard reset, if so I would sugest downloading the ROM upgrade again and re-installing it, I had no problems - from another sandgrownun - Mike
I reflashed it and everything was fine. Re-installed my apps and same problem occured. I will backtrack the apps tomorrow and post the result here.
Nice to see another seasider in her
I am bit stuck on this one. I removed all apps, downloaded a fresh copy of the rom and re-installed without any apps. I got the problem straight away even without installing any apps. I tried in basic and corporate mode but still got the same issue.
It affects start/settings/sounds and notifications/notifications tab and also start/settings/phone. If I tap either they eventually open after a two minutes wait (to the second). I use it all the time so getting the time to figure it out by flattening it every time is a pain. I dont know much about XDA as I was on an SPV before so any ideas are appreciated.
Hi everybody
Many times, after powering on my HTC, I get this message : " There was a problem with device.exe".
Since then, the device is blocked
At this point, the only way to unblock it is with a soft reset.
Any idea to solve this problem ?
Thanks
Hopefully this is a software related bug. What applications have you installed, maybe it is some kind of incompatibility. Did you already did a hard-reset?
Otherwise you should try to flash a cooked rom, or at least the latest official rom.
i get this problem sometimes as well but only after ive used coreplayer 1.2.5
It could be, I have Core Player 1.2.5 installed too.
I have Coreplayer 1.whatever too.
also, I've been noticing problems with cprog.exe and services.exe along with device.exe.
i had the self same problem.. but i dunno where it came from. it happened a few hours after i bought it, i barely had any apps on there...
i just disabled the error message ^^ phone works fine though...

I have gyrator installed,that's true... but I always close it(it is shutdowned) every time,so I think it cannot influence other active programs...so these errors should have other causes
help for me
i had the problem too. When i made a hardreset after the configuration of the device, the phone will configure the data connection. At this point i cancelled and configured the data connection myself.
At this point the problem with device.exe was gone.
Data connection / device.exe issue
Hi, a while abck i had some problems with services.exe crashing frequently. Even after a hard reset the problem persisted and there was nothing i could do to resolve it. However over time the error stopped occuring.
Now I am having a different issue. A few days ago i started to get a problem with my data connection, it would show as being active and connected but it would not send or receive any data at all. Tried this using Opera and google maps wouldnt download anything. The rpoblem would be disappear after a soft reset but then after the phone went to sleep and awoke it would re-appear.
Now i have started to get frequent device.exe crashes and after this happens my data connection stops working alltogether until i soft reset. But then the program will crash a variable amount of time later. I have not installed anything recently since this started happening. There doesn't seem to be any pattern to the crashes like I have read about on other threads, it has happened while watching the youtube app, browsing the web or simply waking up the phone and having the error report waiting for me.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions from what I have described? I am a bit unwilling to Hard Reset as this did nothing for my previous errors and having read other articles on device.exe errors this did not help others.
Thanks for any help!
device.exe
Same thing for me. Sometimes the data icon appear grayed. When activesync try to connect, device.exe crashed.
The only solution I found is to install addintimer and program task \windows\replog.exe /remote/all/h
Not very elegant but it works. Bug appeared after I updated ROM with official HTC Rom
MOD EDIT
I've merged 2 threads as both on same topic
After doing more reading i found that people on other winmo devices were getting this error on wakeup due to a problem with GPS.
After racking my brains thinking what could cause it i remembered i had lattitude on google maps. Since i've disabled this *touch wood* i've had no more crashes.
spoke to soon. device lasted 2 days instead of a few hours though.. progress at least :/
Same prob here....
Cant turn on wifi, bluetooth and cant connect via usb. Soft and hardreseted also flashed with its preinstalled orange firmware(ofcourse done with sd flashing). Same problems all time.
Is it hardware or software related???
BR
i have same problem but it appeared after hard reset and with out any installs
so i performed another hard rest till now its fine
Everytime error device.exe..
Every connection to pc it shows device.exe error.
I think its hardware
Do anybody help me? After changing old Manila theme I restore again the old one but the problem is 1. The volume icon disapeared when tap the left side volume heardware button . 2. the core plaryer 1.3.2 ver running without sound. How could I can solve this p[roblem?
I have an 8525 and have been running CRC's 13.4 ROM fine for several months. Today, a strange problem developed: When I try to open ActiveSync on the device, the program opens but after about 1 second it immediately exits (I am unable to change any settings). Messaging (pocket Outlook) won't even open.
Everything was working fine yesterday, and I didn't install any new programs since then. I will probably do a hard reset to fix things, but I wondered if anyone has a solution that will not involve a hard reset. I looked on the web and XDA forums, but couldn't find anything.
Thank you.
I've started having this problem too, twice in a row, after a hard reset. My Activesync does exactly what you describe.
The first time it did it, I ended up having to do a hard reset and then everything was fine.
Now it's done it again 2 days afterwards... sounds like it's fk-ed...
Just wondering if anyone else have the same problem .. it's driving me nuts during hard resets, i have been reading this forums almost everyday and don't see anyone reporting on this issue
whenever i do a hard reset and try to install all my programs. In the midst of installing the programs, Manila will randomly get corrupted and i will be unable to use the touchscreen properly. At the START menu, whatever program i touch, it will show "MOVE TO THE TOP" and i can't scroll up or down.
i have to hard reset again in order to restore Manila and install the programs very very slowly and with a lot of time lag in between programs installation. Meaning, i install program A .. wait for 1-2 hours, install program B .. wait for 1-2 hours ...
very very irriting and i seem to be able to duplicate the issue quite successfullly. I ever had to hard reset 5-7 times during the weekend, until i realise i can prevent the issue by install my programs very very slowly.
Has anyone encountered the same problem?

Does it happen if you don't install any software? I only ask in case it's a particular application that's causing the problem.
If it does happen, you should immediately get on to your supplier to arrange a replacement.

that's the strange thing, it doesn't happen at any particular application .. and after hard reset, it will work fine.
it sorts of happens randomly, whilst during program installation.
i'm thinking of bringing it down to HTC service center but i bet they will do a hard reset and show me that everything's fine and blame it on the 3rd party SW.

Can you not try using it for a while without any 3rd party software? Just to see if it happens that way. This is obviously not a long-term solution, but if it only happens during installation then it actually does sound like that's the problem.

have tested that out, the symptops will NOT surface, in fact the phone is very stable as long as i don't do a mass installation of the apps. Now i am restricting myself for 1 App installation PER DAY.
but i can successfully duplicate the issue almost 95% of the time by doing a mass installation of my apps (install1, reboot, install App2 ..)
very strange and it seems not as wide spread as i thought it would be .. i have not heard of such similar problems yet.
What rom are you on please?
