Camera and Album are MISSING!

Very strange thing happened to my QTEK 2020:
I had installed the Widcomm Bluetooth Stack the 'Bluetooth.cab' floating around and I was not pleased with it nor did I truly need it and tried uninstalling and NO GOOD. Hard Reset and I in turn started from scratch with reinstalls. Here is my problem:
Upon the Hard reset there is no longer a camera.exe nor album.exe in the \windows directory - and the button of course is not assigned to the Camera because it IS NOT THERE!
This is a HARD reset peeps! It is inherent in the ROM 1.60.00WWE, no? How is this possible? Did this villainous bluetooth.cab do this? I have tried again hard resetting to see if there was anything and EVERY time there is no Camera nor Album installed!
I have installed the Camera/Album 2.5 which came from HTC inherent in the 1.72 ROM and it works great until I soft reset and then it locks the device so there is not a solution there.
Very strange indeed, any comments or remedies?
- Thanks

i've had the same problem with at times a hardreset would not load my extented rom programs another hardreset or opening the extented rom manualy and running the cab files solves it

Looks like part of the extROM was not installed.
Check the config.txt if its still complete. If not: repair it.
Check is the cabs are still in the extrom. If not: didnt you forgot to lock the extrom when you hard-reset the device? You have to get new cabs then.
I think the old versions are lying around somewhere.
OR: Upgrade to 1.72.00! Good occasion now.

Thanks
Thanks for the help... I didnt even know all of the possibilities of unlocking the ROM and seeing what is in there!!! This little machine is COOL!!
I suppose backing up the External ROM is 100% important now that I know it is there!!!
Thanks again for all of the help.
I installed the ExtROM unlocker and re-installed the camera 1.5 cab that was there, rebooted and tried out the camera and it is giving me the same problems as the 2.5 version of the camera did... I will leave it alone for the time being, I didnt really use the camera that much any way

tried out the camera and it is giving me the same problems as the 2.5 version of the camera did

what problem ?

I dont know what happened, but I replaced the older version of the Camera CAB with the 2.5 and changed the config file and then locked the ExtRom then hard reset and the camera works fine as it should...
Before ithe device was locking up - just a black screen when the camera was called... not any more.
Again, thanks for all of the help! This forum is amazing!

correct order of cabs?

hi everyone!
as there are many various cabs flying around here (eg. cab & cab2 from xplode, Addon cabs on Helmi_C's WM06 rom, various HTC plugins, etc.), i wonder if there is a correct or some kind of "best" order to install them!
how does everyone's install sequenz look like?
are there any known problems, which result from installing in a wrong order?
or is it totally nonrelevant...?
regards,
krz

AFAIK the only cabs to be installed in a order are:
1. ArcsoftMMS4.2.8.1.cab
2. MMS_enable.cab
from Xplode cabs2

You are right about that

thanks for your answers!!
i knew about the MMS cabs...
i just wondered, because the first time I upgraded to WM2006, everything worked totally fine. I hab no problems no matter what, wifi worked like it should, bluetooth as well, no turning on here and turning on there again (HTC Home Prob), ...
now, after i have downgraded to WM2003, merged the ExtROM and upgraded to WM2006 again, i am experiencing loads of problems!!
the "turn wifi on"-bug occured, i could not turn wlan adapter on with one simple click on the icon in CommManager...
then, after a softreset, the device froze while booting (there is some other thread about that problem). so i had to perform a hardreset again...
i configured my device again and installed the various cabs again, but in the end my device turned out to be totally screwed... turning on wlan was a pain, message-windows in which u can normally choose one of the available wifi spots were text-less (just empty window, only headlines visible...)...
so, i had to hard reset my blueangel the second time today and am now sitting in front of a fresh install of WM2006, thinking about what to do.....
what cabs should i install?
which HTC Home cab is actually the "best"?
any known problems regarding PPCContacts Manager?
do you thinkl, that those problems are somehow connected to merging ExtROM?
disappointed,
krz
ps: can anyone recommend a good backup problem, which saves me from setting up all settings all over again after eacah hard reset(timezone, regional settings, device id, reg tweaks, ...) ??

* Problem, please help me. S O L V E D.

Hello Friends,
I am just about to throw my TC out the window.
I am sorry to say that I am very disappointed, although I don't understand why, I read many people very happy with their TC and mine ***SUCKS***.
I have received my phone (second hand) about 3 months ago, and it was with Original WM 6.1 rom.
After a few days of usage I have had to (follishly I think) install a cooked rom, the first was UDK's, after a few tries I came accross Khanx and others..
Since then my life has become a catastrophy, every 1-2 days I have to hard-reset and re-inall everything, I have tired to use SPB Backup, but when I try to restore there are a lot of problems and the device just won't work properly.
I have tried a few times to install back the Original WM 6.1 but it does not help.
I am syncing my "Contacts" and "Calendars" "Tasks" etc even had "Notes", but sometime not all of the contacts go in, sometimes the unit freezes, resetting it just deletes all the information.
A few weeks ago, I installed the Khanx 1.4 full, and the unit operated for a few days without any problem, all contacts were in and all calendar was in, stopped using the Microsoft Notes and bought PhatNotes to use with it.
A few days of ahppiness and then suddenly again the unit froze and hard-reset it self and "voila" since then again, installing trying to sync and hard reseting, frezing etc etc.
A few days working with WM 6.1, but after installation there is always a color problem with the minutes on the Home Screen, again a few days working with this problem but once again the unit hard-reset itself one f... day and all the contacts/clanedar etc gone.
Is there anyone out there that could maybe hint me to what is my problem, is it the unit, the roms, the radio (which believe me I have tried all of them).

Why hard reset? soft reset dont work?
What programs do you install? i use UdK R4. try to use it without installing extra programs.
If you have to hard reset again. write down everything you do. maybe some other program is broken

TC Problems.
Well actually it is not me Hard Reseting it is the TC doing it on itself, ofcourse I can soft reset.
I have had also a issue with the soft reset, after which usually I looose the radio signal completely, tried many radio's while keeping the last one 1.59.42.15 which had the best signal.
Well actually the last rom I used was UDK R4, installed and everything was ok till I tried to sync with the computer, I have about 510 contacts and I get syncced only 380 (this issue was and is why I did not continue working with UDK release).
I am going to write down from tomorrow morning a small diary and post it for people to see what I really do and maybe just maybe someone will find the fault.
Thanks.

I don't Know of this advise will help, but I noticed that a lot of settings from older ROM's will stay in the memory. So you have to clean your device severall times (hard reset) before shooting a new ROM.
Try to install your apps en data on your SD card. There are programs to move your data to the SD in that way you don't have to install them new again -(pocket mechanic)
Good luck !!

@irsw
You have not mentioned whether or not you installed HardSPL 1st, ie. before you tried the cooked ROM's ??

delete the phones details from active sync and then name the phone something else before re-syncing it to the PC. It seems to me that this is a sync issue. do you sync the phone to more then one pc or even charge it from more then one PC?

Hard Reset

I made an upgrade to wm6.1 from wm2003 and always is gone right, installed manilla and other soft and all works well! Now I tried sun dream 6.5 rom and after the upgrade (I made an hard reset, power+reset!) the old programs installed previously are always there! I tried many times hard resets but my blue Angel start to freeze! I made a downgrade to wm6.1, now it works, but all the olds programs are always there! The system is instable, very slow. What can I do? It seems I made same error but what?
Any help is appreciate... TIA

Looks like you are flashing the 6.5 ROM without formatting the storage.
Have you tried this when you did the hard reset:
1. You'll see three options on screen. You must change the second and the third to yes. If you are not developing/testing software you can disable the first debug option for better performance.(“Enable KITL” must be NO, “Clean Registry Hive” must be YES, “Format Storage” must be YES)
2. Press the "Mail" button. A white screen will show for 30 seconds, while it is clearing your device in preparation for the new ROM to start executing

[Q] Blue screen, HTC sence crashed.

Good evening.
My HTC crashed. this is the six time now..
So let me tell you what's the problem, hopefully you guy's can help me.
This happend last time:
I was typing an sms and after a while i tilt my mobile to landscape mode.
After doing this my mobile wouldn't return in normal screen mode.
so i soft rest my mobile.. not so smart move.
the text sounds: "tap here for loading HTC sence".
If i tap this it says: "HTC sence loading" but it will return to: "tap here for loading HTC sence".
I cant go into my startscreen so doing anything isn't an option.
Well i soft reset like 5 times and 3 times i yank the battery out while booting but it will ceep telling me the same thing...
My phone: HTC touch HD.
The rom i use: kwbr topix version 3.6
mmm i can't put an link in this post so the thread is: showthread.php?t=460640
So if anyone has an idea for me. that would be great!
I haven't done a hardrest before and I instald my ROM 5 times before now..
Thanks anyway.
Leek.

if just sense isn't working there's no problem, just backup your pim data and any other important files (pictures...) and hard reset the phone.

So if I take all my files from my SD-card and copy them to my PC (or take my SD-card out of my phone) and preform a hard-reset, then is there a chance that my phone will be alive again?
And a question:
A hard rest can be done by: pressing both volume button's and the powerbutton?
Thank you very much!

a hard reset does not affect the contents of the sd card, but the entire internal storage, meaning the space, where "\My Documents" and other folders are located, including all your contacts, messages...
you should sync your pim data (contacts, tasks, appointments...) either with outlook (that does not save your sms!) or with MS myphone (saves all) or pimbackup (saves all) and save your ringtones and possible photos stored internally, you can backup those files either with ms myphone as well or just copy and paste them to the storage card.
also, remember, a hard reset will delete all the programs installed and their respective settings, so keep your needed cab files present.
setting up the device after the hard reset will take some time, keep that in mind, but if you actually never performed one before, you will realise a huge improvement in speed.

Ok thank you very much.
I will preform a hard reset tonight so I can use it soon again ^^.
The data standing on my internal storage isn't usefull anymore. It's already on my pc so when I get home, I'll hard reset it right away!
Speed improvement is alway's welcome!
I'll let you know if my phone works again.
Thanks.

Wauw it worked perfectly!
The hard rest of my phone took only a minut, so that was far much better then installing the ROM over and over again!
Thanks for your advice.

yes, reflashing the rom does not really change anything, as long as you don't hard reset after flashing. to keep ypur phone clean and fast and not pollute it with old trash, always perform a hard reset after flashing. it is highly recommended when changing roms, and when staying on the same one, a hard reset can solve nearly any software related issues that appear over time

New problem...
My phone is acting weird again..
The problem is the startup now.
It takes around 5 min to get to the home screen.
but when you think its finaly started, then there appears an error:
Run FILEOP
\windows\Menu_FILEOP_Operator.txt
faild.
What can i do about this?
Hardreset again?
(this would be my 13th time that my phone crashed... i'm becomming crazy..)
can anyone help me with this?

1) Backup all PIM data.
2) Preform Task 29(that's the topic showthread.php?t=653604)
3) Flash with the ROM you like
4) Hard reset 1 or 2 times depending of ROM requirements.
5) Restore the PIM data.
6) Have fun
