Iphone Theme...BRICKED my Mogul...but why? - Mogul, XV6800 General

So here is how it went...
I had wisbar advance 2 and wisbar advance desktop installed. Also installed the cab for slide2unlock like the iphone...
well everything was running great for 2 days...perfect even...then I wake up on sunday and slide to unlock my phone...works great...then go to tap my email icon on my desktop and boom...nothing....try hit the power button...nothing....so now im jus thinking the phone froz like any indows machine...attempt a soft reset...
phone restarts...wisbar loads up cuz it loads on start up...go to tap the screen...nothing....try this about 5 more times same thing...
so I do the inevitable...hard reset...im thinking maybe it was another program interfering...so I did it all over again installing only things needed for the iphone theme....and threaded sms...that's all...
this time it didn't even last an hour...so now my question is why the hell did it jus stop working?
someone anyone wanna let me know before I try it one more time lol...it was jus so nice looking I really want it

you didnt brick your mogul

I guess I brick mine about once a day then.. lol

ok so if I didn't brick it why is it unresponsive after all that? someone care to ellaborate?

Bricking something renders it completely useless. There is no resetting, hard or soft.

Because something you installed was poorly written and crashed your device.

There are 2 themes I can get you. One is simple and the other is annoying and long to install, but quite possibly THE BEST iphone theme out there.
Simple one (requires no other programs): Download from below
Complicated one (requires Wisbar Advance 2 and Wisbar Advance Desktop):

Never really looked at free memory before installing all that stuff, but after removing the voice speed dial and sms programs from my startup folder (never use em so no reason to let them sit there eating my memory), I have about 21mb free RAM. Thats with wisbar advance 2, wisbar advance desktop, the iLock program, and the imselector keyboard skin loading at startup.
When you leave voice speed dial and the sms program in startup, you only have 10-12mb free RAM. So yeah, if you don't use those 2 programs, remove them. They're called sddaemon and poutlook and they're located in the windows>startup folder. I just backed them up somewhere in case for some odd reason I'd want them in startup again.
hey everyone i have another question about the iphone theme i am gettin the mogul really soon and a friend of mine has the apache (6700) and we wanna put the iphone theme on our phone but we need to know if we do will we loose our emails? (work emails) and be able to keep our contacts when we upgrade or do we have to load back in? and text messaging will be the same right? TIA

If you use SPB Backup, you can backup your PIM stuff (aka email, contacts, etc.) so that should cover it.
we set it up on the 6700 and its awesome didnt lose anything its great....now just waitin for my mogul and i'll be puttin it on that damn SPRINT.COM for takin my money and still havent sent my phone
so is this complicated one worth while? i wanna do put an iphone theme on my mogul, and theres alot of em out there. so i just wanna kno which is the best... is there anyone better than that complicated one?

Well, there's always the hard reset button.
does anyone have an instant messager? cuz im pretty much a noob, wen it comes to this stuff... so if someone could help me out, it would be much aprpeciated...
Ok I installed it and just uninstalled it. I don't like wisbar it's nice for looks and sounds but beyond that it does nothing special. Also I can't stand iLock it looks pretty but it's so poorly executed.
Personally, I'll stick with my pocket breeze and SPB pocket plus today plugin.
If you want a phone that looks pretty but can't do anything go for the iPhone don't bungle the Mogul up =/

Amen, brother...........
I just install the "long" version of the iphone theme, everything seems extremely slower now. Also the clock onthe slide2lock screen is off. how do I adjust that?
Did everyone install this on the phone or on the storage card?

unfortunately I've had limited success with this theme. It eats up all my memory and causes me to soft reset about a dozen times per day. And it always locks up at the most inopportune moments. i just hard reset and am going to try installing again to see if i can get some better results.
If only the Mogul had as much free RAM as we all thought it would. Hopefully someone figures this out and gives us our RAM back!

After Removing Manilla 2D, QuickDial doesn't work -- HELP PLEASE!

Please don't kill me if this has been posted already, but I have searched and searched and searched.
I installed Manilla 2D and wasn't really feeling it, so I removed it. Well everything works fine except my quickdial pad on my touchflo cube. When I boot the phone I get an error message about the quickdial.exe program, and when I launch the cube, I can see the quickdial pad, but no names appear, and I can't activate it with touch.
Is there a registry tweak to fix this??? Or what can I do?? I REALLY don't want to do a hard reset, but if I do, will it go back to WM6 or will it stay WM6.1?
Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated!
Oh, I have the HTC Touch (Sprint), btw.
same thing happened to me ... i don't recall seeing an error about quickdial though... let me go to war with it and tell you what i find out.
well... tried everything i could think of... replaced Quickdial.exe with another version, tried two other cubes from different versions of the phone... looked through the reg... didn't fix it.
Backup your stuff and do a hard reset. it will go back to the last ROM you instaled.
If it still doesn't work, you nee to re-execute the ROM upgrade utility (RUU)
we'd rather not at this point
Ugh. Doing a hard reset for a simple dial pad makes my head hurt. I'm never installing another app on this phone that messes with the interface. I'll just stick with what it's got until the next phone.
If anyone thinks of another solution, PLEASE let me know. Hard reset is such a pain.

Main reason why i dont want to install Manilla 2D...
Mostly, do not instal BETA if you are not ready to do a hard reset... Or if you don't use an easy backup utility...
Especially when they mention it in the app's tread!
I don't understant why it seems so terrible for you guys to do a hard reset... I just did it with mine: It feels much lighter now!
The Manilla 2D replaces the default quick dial, so the files are altered. It's like trying to install the cube and HTC Home, at least in some instances. The two files conflict, so you'll need to hard reset.
Or, reinstall without the quick dial .cab, and use the customizer to remove the speed dial page.

Lock/unlock

Hi guys
Can you help me!
Bad English, but I hope you understand.
I need a keylock to my phone.
So I can lock/unlock it. ( Like Iphone)
Its a problem when I have my phone in my pocket!
Anyone?
Thanks
The phone has one as standard.
If you want one like the iPhone, search for S2U2.

I guess you don't bother searching or reading, do you? There's a link on the developer's page saying "Read me first". If you click that then you'll find full instructions.
If you do not want to use 3rd party software, I suggest you use the built-in one.
Just hold the most right button a few seconds... (or read also the manual of the phone)
I also use this method, it is fine and I can preserve more power.
Before that, I also use S2U2, and I remove it after 1 day trail.
When I put the machine aside, HD will lock after 30s, then the screen will goes off in another 30s, the beautiful S2U2 screen saver will only survive for no more than 1 minutes.
When I pull the stylus out, it will automatically unlock, so I got no point to use S2U2......and most important, after using it, the battery goes very fast.
I have a full charge before sleep (100%), when I wake up in the next day, only 89% battery left......

I have also used S2U2 and had problem with the power leak but then switched to pocket shield which was great, I even wrote a post about it somwhere in this forum... but after some time with pocket shiel it showed 2 very annoying problems. One was that somehow it totally messed up my galarm application to the point it didn't ring the phone alarm at all (I was very pissed of). Since I am a good man I decided to give it one more chance so I uninstalled galarm and used standard windows alarm app... unforutnately this misworked same way- no alarm, this time i was smart enough to test it. Second thing was that pocket shield was messing start menu in my phone - making it disapear until restart, whenever appointment reminder would start...so this is why I dumped pocket shield and moved back to the simplest standard windows lock function
using s2u2, I like the feature, "keylock: do not lock buttons." I installed keylock.cab, but no effect. There is another way?

sluggish text messaging help please

hi, i tried searching before any seniors start getting annoyed..
but my diamond has very sluggish text messaging...i press one key and it take about a second for it to register it..
im a heavy texter so find this a problem..
resetting the phone works for about 5 minutes then it becomes slow again.
Also- how do i change my left home softkey to an action screen- bearing in mind i have touchflo 3d turned off
thank you everybody!
hey cmon guys! i like to think we're a community in this windows mobile... that help each other out..now im sure somebody knows how to help me.. so help me please!
Have you tried a hard reset ?
Assuming it used to work ok when you got it, a hard reset will get it back to its original performance
I think it's good to hard reset (or change the rom) every few months at least
It may help the techs if you can say what rom version you have
hard reset doesnt help. ive tried that and it still becomes sluggish after about half hour of it being on or after a soft reset
Time for a cooked ROM fellas. Best solution to most problems.
who will make me a cooked rom...i only realli use text messaging and intenet...thats it

Sounds like you have some reading to do...
Best to start here in the ROM thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=430
http://www.modmydiamond.info is also a good place for beginners.
AdamPatel - After the hard resets you've tried, have you restored all your previous sms messages back onto the phone.
One thing i'm wondering is, does having hundreds-thousands of text messages, slow down sending/viewing messages?

Wake on power button only

Have had no joy trying to find a solution to this...
I have disabled screen lock so currently all keys wake screen. I would like to change this so only the power button wakes the screen....help please.
Thanks

If you could tell me anything about their charges, then I could tell you....
was browsing their site and didn't find it.....
you can simply pm me about it
honestly no idea where that link came from, sorry
honestly someone must have a solution to this, it must be bugging people....
Bumping indeed, wanting this solution also
I'd like to know this as well... Also the answer button is a waste of space. Why would anyone need it if theoretically it shouldn't be possible to answer a call without finger slide. Sometimes I answer calls by mistake when removing the device from the pouch...
I think this is one of the reasons for my battery depletion. Every time I pull my HD2 out of my pocket, the screen is always on...
This really needs a solution
When taking the phone out of my pocket I have seen it in Opera, other apps and worst of all I heard my pocket talking to me on Monday - pulled my phone out and I had called someone who had been called by me listening to everything I was saying!
As I said this really needs a solution ASAP if anyone can help...

For now you might be better of by using Lock Screen, it can still turn on your phone with any hardkey. But atleast the screen itself is locked so you can't call someone, or start any programs.
I understand lock screen is an option but the simplicity of a one click lock/unlock makes the phone that much quicker to get into and better to use....
we just need a way to disable the other 4 buttons (expect power) from waking the device....
bump...anyone
I would like to know as well.
Also, I want the "answer" and "hang up" hard keys disabled when I receive a call. This made me pickup or ignore call which I did not want to pickup/ignore.
Only solution would be a custom rom with device lock/button lock coocked in it.

Well PocketShield is halfway there. it disables the hangup button nicely, but I can still push the hard pickup button.
