I'll try to be as brief and complete as possible.
I was using ROM Mr. Clean had backuped with both SBP and SKtools to SD card. I then installed registry wizard. Ran it and decided against it. Deleted it and ran the SBP back up. Then my "phone" did not work (no signal no carrier) the PDA part was fine. So in despiration I reinstalled Mr. Clean. The phone now worked but certain things like Calendar and contacts did not work. So I turned it off and then on and now the "phone" was gone again. Next I installed the ROM Update Utility 2.5.2 with the same results as before. What do I need to do? This is on a Tmobile MDA unlocked and using suncom provider. Thanks in advance to those who reply with any helpful suggestion. This site has been a wealth of information and help with getting the most out my wizard.

To fix the calendar/ contacts issue (their not starting is pretty common, particularly when you restore a non-AKU3 Sprite Backup file on AKU3 or vice versa), try deleting its contents from SKTools to see if it helps.
Okay
1) How do I delete those two things and
2) Will that fix my problem with the "phone" not working after a soft reset. I can't istall any new programs if every time I have to hard reset in order to get it to work.
Does anybody know where I can get the above software for WM5.0?

This thread might be worth a look:

A Hermes should have it, though the visible name depends on the SIM card used. Look for \Windows\STK_UIPPC.exe (you may need to turn on showing all and ROM files in your file explorer).
Thanks for the link Mike though I had already seen that thread and tried the files contained but no joy.
When I run STK.exe I get this message
'Your Sim Card has no application installed'
I did not have all the files on in my Windows folder. I did not have STK.exe. I also did not installed the extended rom... restarted the device straight after the ROM was updated. Is this the reason why?
I'm actually after it in order to see if I can use it to switch between Line1 and Line2 on my 64k sim. I've seen other threads about dual sim and people using Sim Tool Kit to switch between them.
You've answered yourself: your SIM card has no an STK application installed. So stop looking for a WM5 stuff, and, if you need an STK functions of your SIM, contact your operator for a SIM exchange.
Not every SIM card has an STK on it.

Thanks. I did find STK_UIPPC.exe but the Orange sim just gives a couple basic functions (i.e calling the operator), nothing for Line switching.
Hi everyone, I have a problem restoring my Vogue from the exe back up created with Spb Back up.
Here is the situation:
after a hard reset I restored my PPC from the back up file. Seamed like everything was fine until it rebooted (did it twice.. ??) and after it restarted the second time I noticed I could not use the phone function (could not bring up the phone screen from the hardware button or from start-phone) and I could not use the internet...no connection.
Also some programs like..ContactManager are not running properly.
did the restore couple of times same result.
any suggestions please ?
I tried taking the storage card out while doing the restore...still no luck.
maybe I should do a customized restore and uncheck some system items ?
can anyone help please ?
PS: if I just hard reset the phone to factory settings everything works fine, so the problem is clearly somewhere in the backup file.

Are you running any apps off the storage card? Or is an app pulling something from the storage card? I had recently done a full backup but my backup file is stored on the card and I have not run into any problems so far. Also have you tried restoring from a older backup file? I have mine set to the default keep 3.
update
well, I tried a customized restore and I unchecked "emals"...so it looks like that solved the problem. can use the phone and the internet just fine now.
everything seams fine as of yet
will let you know if anything else goes wrong.
I must say this SPB BACKUP is pretty sweet ! A+++++
Just got my HTC Touch HD today and really impressed with it and it's not as big as i thought
So i've been playing with it to get to know the menu, functions, etc and just wondering how to set pin code when i turn on the phone?
Great forum and been looking at the threads for couple of days now
Thanks a lot
Phone pin
Just go to PHONE/MENU/OPTIONS and the select the PIN tab on the bottom.
Good luck.
Yeah tried that and after i put pin, there's no OK button or anything?
ALso what's the advantage of flashing with new ROM, will it remove my provider splash screen?
A new ROM does much more than just change the splashscreen. It is basically the same thing as installing a new OS on your desktop computer, or rather a different version of it. New ROMs solve bugs, glitches, add new functionality, can change the appearance.
I would recommend to you to try out your Touch HD for at least a week, find out what you dislike about it, write it down if you'd like and then hit the local ROM forum, open the most popular topics (that would be Davideuck's, Laurentius' and Dutty's) and check their features. If a particular ROM appeals to you, read the instructions on how to flash it and try it out - but backup beforehand, as you will lose all your data!

The OK button should be on the top/right corner.
Thanks all for your help.
Still charging just now. How long do i need to charge it for (just out of the box) as it's been 4.5 hours now
Was looking at Unsigned_HardSPL_for_Blackstone_OliNex which i believe need to flash it with this before flash with any ROMs? Also was looking at CustomRUU for Blackstone as well as Dutty's HD XTREME. Still no idea what they are tho
Is it similar to jailbreak for ipod which allow us to add apps, etc?
Also, i have old sim card on network A and wanting to transfer all the contacts (phone no) to my new phone which on network B, is the only way to do it is to unlock the phone and insert sim card network A to the phone?
Thanks

You can synchronize the contacts from your old phone to your computer and synchronize your contacts to your new phone afterwards.
I did the same yesterday.
Well, what you could try, is syncing through Outlook or something like that. Use an old phone with your old SIM to sync your SIM contacts with the program, then connect your Touch HD and sync contacts again.
And now for the terminology.
Flashing: Saving data on the internal memory.
SPL: You need to flash one of these first to be able to flash a new ROM.
HardSPL: You only need to flash this once and then you can flash as many ROMs as you'd like.
USPL: Basically the same as HardSPL, but you have to flash it every single time before you flash a new ROM. It, however, doesn't void your warranty.
ROM: The "OS" of your phone. There are many different authors, or "cooks", who make their own ROMs. (i.e. Davideuck, Laurentius26, Dutty, kwbr and many others.) This is the part that really matters.
Radio: Another thing you can flash. This time, it changes the behaviour of your GSM module, WiFi, 3G and GPS. Basically anything that is used to communicate wirelessly. A newer version is not necessarily better.
Wow thanks a lot for that
I don't have any cable that come with my old phone, will bluetooth works?
So HSPL probably better then and will it void warranty? Can i revert it back to original ROM in the future?
Have to do it 1 by 1 with bluetooth
Well, I've heard you can flash your original SPL later and nobody will know a thing (same goes for the ROM), but that's only when you don't have your phone "bricked" (that means your phone has to work for you to be able to flash the SPL/ROM). I've never looked for it, so I don't really know.

No idea, sorry.
Transferred now.
What i did, i put the new sim card to the old phone, copied all the contacts to the new sim card and then put the new sim card back to the new phone and copied to the contact in the new phone
When i open contact on the new phone, why showing both name from the contact phone and sim card? I couldn't find a way to choose just the one from contact?
http://www.mobilehtc.net/index.php?ind=downloads&op=download_file&ide=9&file=INGHideSIMV2.1.rar
Install this to hide SIM contacts.
Thanks
So do i need to do HSPL before i can install this kind of mods/apps?
No, HSPL is only needed for flashing unofficial ROMs. Applications and programs are alright.
How to install this?
Also do i need to reinstall after doing HSPL/USPL?
HardSPL
There, all the information you'll need.
I installed HD Tweak at the end and it's great.
Will do HSPL or maybe USPL later still don't know which one tho
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.
