I have played around with different versions of a backup program, which after expiring shows a permanent line in my today screen saying "trial period expired". I tried everything: deinstalling the programm, searching the registry, etc. Nothing helped. (ok, I am not really a developer, but not a complete lefty either... )
Please, can anybody help me, how I can get rid of this ugly notification ?
Thanks a million....
Really nobody any idea ?????
Alright, got it finally fixed
I downloaded the programm MemMaid (free trialware) and run a cleanup of my PPC. That helped and removed the bothering notification. ..and the system is faster now, too...

Hi guys,
I developed an application that simulates, somewhat, the Safe Mode on Pocket PC. I needed it because many times my PDA kept self-reseting or froze after I installed certain programs. It just temporary disables the Startup programs, allowing you to uninstall them.
How it works:
-soft reset device with stylus
-immediately afterwards, keep pressing the Action key until you see a message saying that the PDA is running in Safe Mode.
-uninstall any buggy program, if necessary
-soft reset device normally, and the Startup programs will run again.
The application is freeware and you can find it at www.monocube.com.
Let me know what you think.
Regards.
Brilliant idea. :idea: :idea: Thank you.
Let me know if you have any ideas in further developing it. I will make a new version tomorrow, so you can also disable the 3rd party Today plugins (i.e. only the standard ones will be loaded).
Hi guys,
I've updated SafeMode to version 0.2. Now the program also disables Today plugins, showing a "Safe Mode" screen instead.
Please check www.monocube.com for updated info on usage
Regards.
Updated to v0.3, added Landscape/VGA support
EDIT:
Updated to v0.41, changed the functionality a bit. Now you will see a message asking you if you want to enter Safe Mode.
Please get the updated version, it fixes some issues with some PDA models and adds this new functionality.
Updated to 0.5
Added disabling of Services, and a few other features.
Please let me know what u think.

Nice one and good safety tool for beta testers (and not only )
One small bug though: on my xda II it mixes up the blue screen with the today theme :shock:
nothing important, anyway
thanks for this useful tool
ummm, do you have v0.5? there's no more blue screen, just your currently selected theme as background.
if you are using it, could you post a screenshot?
FANTASTIC util - and a great idea Many thanks m8!
I tried it but how can I use it using WM2005.
Can I rename/delete ROM/System files under Safe Mode?
Fantastic Idea!!! this is a must have to every people who has a pda.. good work
Unfortunately it will not work yet work with Magneto, one of the reasons being services now require a digital certificate (which costs a lot, at least for me). So I guess we should all thank Microsoft for that
hi guys,
just updated to v0.6. it now disables 3rd party SIP plugins.
enjoy.
cool! i like. hehe.
updated to 0.65. SafeMode is now unloaded from memory on normal reboots. Also, you can have your own "safemode.wav" file in your Windows folder (also changed the default sound to voicbeep.wav, the alarm seemed to annoy people ).
Thats really EXCELLENT work, pravo :wink:
This is really what I wanted, long time ago, cus sometimes I install programs that hangs up my PPC & forces me to do a hard reset!
I have one comment: if you can change the text's color to be something else other than white; cus I have a white today backround image, so I couldn't read the text!
Maybe you can use an XOR text mode (I use it in windows desktop application, but I don't know if it's supported in WinCE)
Anyway, thanks alot monocube,, really its something great
I wonder why Micro$oft missed it out! :roll:
Thanks ezzkht.
I've also updated it to v0.67. It now fixes some issues with Korean (and perhaps other) ROMs and with Password screen being enabled.
The text color should be the same as your current Today font color (so it changes with the theme) - but that apparently doesn't work with some older themes. Anyhow, for next version the color will be user selectable.
Take care all.
As I have said on the other thread, I will be using this app so long as I keep testing betas and alphas thanks for the time and effort m8.

Now aint that a ***** no safemode and no wifi activesync. Are we going backwards here?
One cquestion about using this app though. I guess it would be easy to circumvent the password protect screen login if it were enabled?
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. You would want the password screen automatically disabled in SafeMode?
safemode.wav
Anyone has a pleasant safemode.wav to share?
Hello,
Everytime I reboot my Qtek S200 (soft reset) my sms-tone keeps playing over and over. I lasts untill I actually receive a call or a text message.
If anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know!
It's rather anoying!
Thanks,
E
Do you have any strange programs installed?
strange programs?
No not really, none that use my sms-tone.
I am using a freeware version of callender +, but the problem started a lot later than that I started using it...
No clue here...
Thanks,
E
Get `Check Notification`, to check your notification queue to see if problems are there.
I got the same problem when installing some application (forgot which one), which opens the option of repeat SMS alert tone. It is bad.
It's worth a try! Any idea where I can find this peace of software?
Thx,
E
Ok, so i am using this really tight iPhone theme made with wisbar advance 2, and wisbar advance desktop.
Also, the slide 2 unlock is like version 2.16 or something. Ok. so here is my problems.
1. Comming back from the slider (and turning the phone on). "Notification Error.. Cannot execute \storage card\program file\lakeridge\wisbar advance desktop\wakeup.exe
2. I am loosing tons of battery life. I don't know what it is. I have the wisbar and everything with iphone theme running. i was at 100% this morning and about 8 hours later, 50%. Any way to change that. (I heard that the slider like is set to run in the background, or it is always running, so your screen never turns off... how do you fix that).
3. How can i change the slide 2 unlocks's settings? (i want the latest ones because they are better). but i don't know how to change it. There is not text file i can change. (like i want to turn off run in the background, and change the time format, and change the background image, change some other things like the thing that supposably eats up memory).
That's about it. The error and changing the slide 2 unlock.. if anybody knows please tell. I want to use this theme because its tight, but these problems like waisting tons of battery are annoying.
Thanks in advance.
Take a look at the readme.txt, it has a bunch of helpful information for the Slide2Unlock.
the read me tells you what the configurations mean..
Like turn animation on/off, would be 0 or 1.
except it does't say how to change them.
Try to install the wisbar softwares in the main memory of your device. I had the same problem before but since i moved (reinstalled) the softwares into my device memory (not in the removable one) the error notification disappeared.
Sorry my English is not so good...
Thanks I will definatly move my wisbar desktop and everything, yea, don't like that error message.
By the way, i downloaded a registry editor and changed the stuff with slide 2 unlock 2... so once i switch to main memory for the wisbar stuff... everything will work perfect thanks for the help.
Ummm... Yea, something is really weird now.
It still gives me the error that it cannot start the wakeup.exe in my storage card. I moved it to main memory, and deleted all the other folders for it in my storage card. hmmmm....
bump. anybody know how to fix the notification error sayign that it cannot excecute something in my storage card.. even though, i removed the program.. deleted everything else.. then reinstalled the program to main memory? really buggin me. if have the screen off for a while, and slide it.. it always give me the error.. and you can't do anything til you hit the tiny close button on it.
s2u2 .80 is working much better for me than slide2unlock. faster and a lot less memory loss. you should give it a shot.
im using s2u2 v .81 and same thing.
Ok, this is really messed up now. I thought you know, that it would be either wisbar advance 2, wisbar advance desktop, or s2u2... well i don't know what it is. I uninstalled all of them.. they are all off of my device right now, and i still get the error when i start up my phone. What is going on?
Seriously? is there some folders that i didn't delete or something (btw i deleted the "/Themes" folder, the "lakeridge" folder in the program files, and from before, the lakeridge folder in the storage card.).
somebody, its freakin me out?!
I think somewhere on the S2U posts, it says that it isn't compatible with WA2/3. Check out www.lakeridgesoftware.com too
i think i got the notification gone now. I installed pocket mechanic and searched for the path the notification it was givin me... and deleted it. haven't seen it since.
Okay guys... another thing wanted help on... If i push the weather button.. and go to a new page... how can i set it up to look like the iphone weather. Ive seen it done.. but can't figure out how to get it to work (they use like weatherpanel .... but like, i can't figure out how to customise it or anything). Btw, if you can get it to work with any other weather thing... that would work also.
Shortcuts all have the same 'icon'.
Here's is what I did, I installed G-alarm and I get a following message after installing this app. "your device seems to be at risk to have the windows alarm bug". I told me to restart so I did.
Nothing weird happend after that but I didn't test the application.
I installed sprite backup after that and made a backup.
All went well and backup was made.
Now I was installing Western Europe maps for TomTom. The process was fine and when I unplugged the HTC from my PC for testing TomTom I saw that all my shortcuts changed in the same way. (shortcut icon blue outside, white inside)
And I tried the Icon but it didn't launch any program so ... I went towards the install dir from my appz and all normal .exe files where still working so something f**ked up my shortcuts.
I tried soft reset but when starting up the HTC i get much errors from application G-alarm.
Anyone knows my problem?
I removed all programs who'd give errors. Replaced all shortcuts also.
Seems to be working so far.

SK Tools can do the job quite well, as far as I have used it.
Hey everybody.
I got some problems with a few games on my diamond.
The first game, I got problems with is DragonBall VGA, which can be found here.
At first, I install it. Then I start the game.. and it works flawless.
But if I try to start it a second time.. it doesn't display anything.. only the normal screen I have been to before.
The weird thing is.. I can hear the game running. I can hear the sound and I can navigate through the menu.
But I just can't see anything! Although I could play it the first time I installed!
WTF!?
I tried different version numbers etc. but I allways got the same problem. And a simple re-install doesn't help.. I have to hard reset my device to get it to work once!
Similar problems with: Nanobotz, Enslave and Resco xBall (doesn't even start once. Just gives me a weird error message, "not enough free memory")
I just want to know WHY!?
And is there any solution for this?
I'm using the very stable AZTOR rom.
Thanks for your help,
Monstaaaah
No recommendation? o_o
I really need help to play these great games..
wow.. 286 views and still no response.
Nobody got any idea?
try to uninstall games and apps from main memory and reinstall it on the 4gb internal memory.... idk if that is ur problem
Allready tried it. Doesn't change anything.
But thanks anyway.
Any other solutions?
try this
try taking off TF3D and doing it that way, if still no, clear up more ram by reseting the phone and then run them, it probably will work now. if this doesn't help. then i am clueless.
hope it works
If it is a lack of memory issue (which I had on xtrakt) then you can gain quite a few megs by disabling the htc dialpad with advanced config and as stated above also disabling tf3d, settings/today/items.
