Help! Universal refuses to install applications

Hi all,
No matter what I do, as of yesterday, I cannot install any applications, big or small, internally or on SD card. Thought I had run out of space and checked storage space: 7.12 MB free.
Gone to "Remove Programs" and got a greyed-out empty screen! (see below)
No idea how it got like this!
I am stuck! Short of hard resetting, I don't know what to do!

hi
i had the same problem, posted my question 2 times but no results. the only advice is do a hard reset so you can install everthing again.
i believe thats the only solution
goodluck

At last an answer!

Thanks! You are the only brave soul in here at the moment.
I've listed all my installed applications, will take a deep breath and go for the hard reset this wekend.
Cheers

have you installed pocket mechanic,or other similar software?

I had the same problem and it did start after using pocket mechanic. I was tring to put all programs from memory to SDcard, and thats when I got the same white screen and the problem of not being able to install any further apps.
So this issue could have to do with Pocket Mechanic....

Solution of sorts!

Hi,
Thanks to all that replied and no, I don't have Pocket Mechanic but I did install a trial version of SK Tools. Could that have caused it?
At the moment, I've solved it with a hard reset and careful re-install of applications I knew forever and no fancy Today plugins either.
It would be helpful if we could pinpoint the trouble-maker and under what situation the problem occurs so that we can avoid the situation happening again.
Many happy returns!

I had the same problem when using paradis pals page pool changer. If you do not make sure the address in the nb file is correct, you will mess things up in the phone that you need working on your phone.

Hmmm... surprised the hard reset did not work.
Try a reflash, but start with the phone in Bootloader mode.
Works the same as a regular flash EXCEPT... put the phone in BL mode BEFORE plugging into the USB cable. Then run the update.

I apologise I had done the hard reset correctu, its fine now Thanks

Running Version 4.5 for Tytn II
Thanks

I'm not sure if my solution is the best one (I certainly don't recommend it
because it was time consuming) but I got a bluetooth adapter, copied whatever
data/contacts I could using the generic file transfer feature of bluetooth
and then executed a hard reset. This wiped out all of my data and probably
erased whatever was causing the problem. I can now sync with ActiveSync 4.5.
I REALLY didn't like this solution but my device works now.

Did you see this page? Have you hard reset yet? What OS? Stock ROM?

Thanks for your replay.
So do you think the issue is actually with the phone and not my PC?

Quite possibly.

You can also simply go to settings>system>Clear storage

That's actually not the same as a hard reset. As it's run from within windows mobile, some files tend to be left behind (files that are in use at the time, at least). Best is still to hard reset from phone start.

keyboard pwd lock

Hi All,
first of all , hope to put this issue in the correct forum path....
my friend has a problem with the Pro2, as you can see by the attach , concerning the keyboard password lock.
His password doesn't works and also performing all the reset type , after the reboot the mobile starts with the keyboard locked (only emergency number is possible call).
he has reported me that at the first time, the mobile has gave to him an alphanumeric code to try to unlock the code but it doesn't solved the issue.
probably re-installing the software (6.5) the problem is solved but he doesn't want loss the date / appointments due the fact he has a doctor.
please help us.
thanks

Hi again,
it's appreciated also if someone know if there's a way to perform the backup in this condition.
Thanks again

Did he ever use Activesync or Google Sync? If he did, most of his information sould be saved that way. Also, you may want to try doing a hard reset but only after exausting all attempts to back your data up. Send a couple of PM to Senior memebers or Moderators, you might get some help that way!!
Good luck!!

thanks for your post....
principal problem is that is not possible connect the mobile to pc in order to use activesync or other program due the fact the mobile is locked....and not save data has been performed before....

Double chack that his SIM card is in correctly.

Same exact thing happened to me. My phone battery was at about 10% and when I tried the password that I had set... it didn't work. This made me frantic and very ticked off. I had a ROM on my SD card so i just reflashed from there. Since then I always install a different locking app then the stock one. I just can't trust it. So I think youre only option is to hard reset and hopefully your contacts are saved to the SIM so they won't be deleted.
