Removing Htc Plus++? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I have installed this app at one time. Now i am still receiving the tab on the today settings screen at the bottom. Any help would be awesome. Reg edit ro something?

I managed to delete mine from /windows/htcplus, i just deleted all the contents and then reset my device. I dont really think you need to go into regedit, if you have no joy then back up and flash your rom again.

Doesn't help backing up if you then have it install all the apps straight back on the phone....
Would need to back up contacts and start from scratch....

Safe Mode

Is there any way to boot a Wizard into a safe mode?
I dont want to hard reset , it boots, I put it my passcode and THEN it hangs, so it boots but something is killing it before it fully loads.
I think its the today screen itself that is hanging in, is there any way to disable/remove today plugins through active sync ? Add/Remove programs wont work, so am thinking I could probably disable the plugins and then reboot.....
If when you boot the phone and it hangs, it is still visible by Activestink, you could do in to your phone and remove the plugin files... then reboot, and if that in fact was causing the problem you might be ok.
Otherwise you'll be hard resetting. Hope you made a backup!
Yeah, it syncs if I dont put the password in. Only thing I would lose would be my SMS messages which haven't been backed up in a while. Bugger will be getting a new license for Opera.
Any idea where the plugins files are?
The thing that broke it was I installed O2 plus. I re-enabled RhinoStats cause I wanted to know how much CPU was taking, and I think it was the combo of these two things which broke it.
If I hold the power key down it does ask if I want to turn off my device, which is "nice"..... it's not dead but it certainly doesnt do much.
It wont add/remove programs, it gets half way through then dies.
ANd what happens if you break a today plugin? Does it fail to load and then have windows clean up after itself? Or does it royally break things?
Wont let me delete the rhinostats dll file and I dont know which O2 files I can delete so I shall not be touching those.
Have removed the sim card, will see if that helps get it into some sort of working state so I can fix the problems it seems to be having. -> Answer, no. Just shows a different screen when it gets round to breaking.
Any more ideas?
Ok, I dont know how I managed to do it, but this time (having now re-inserted my sim and removed the 2Gb SD card) it didn't immediatly die.
I cant explain it, I dont know if this is a coincidence, but I have now de-installed O2 plus and disabled all the today plugins I could find. I shall now be running a new backup.....
Now let's see if it dies.....
On a side note, anyone know of a way of exporting all the SMS messages in a format that is readable by a desktop computer (preferably via notepad/nano)?
if u want to backup ur sms msgs, there is a file called cemail.vol.
copy it to ur storage card, hard reset, then copy iy back again.

Hi Mohammad, i can't copy/paste it as it is locked by something. How to do it?
Regards...
try renaming the current cemail.vol to anything ..like cemail.volx then copy the old cemail.vol into the same directory where the new cemail.vol resides. soft reset.

but how can i backup the "old" one? as i said it is locked so i can't copy it...
btw: even renaming does not work because of the file being locked...
Tried checking it on my phone, and yes it can't, i guess this only works with Smartphones. I'm sorry for that.

App folders not going away.

I uninstalled Office from my phone with WM6 but the folder is still in the Program list.How do I get rid of it? ?And there is two calanders, I haven't installed anything yea, anyone know how to get rid of them?
clear temp
use clear temp application
hopefuly it will help u
it clears bad or unused registry entries
Didn't work , I still have the Office folder and the two calander programs.
You know of a WM6 ROM that has ONLY the WM6 stuff nothing at all extra?
reset!!
have u done soft reset after clear temp?
No, how do I do that?
reset
re-start ur device Buddy!
Soft resetted it but they are all still there. Will hard resetting it bring it back to the way it was when the ROM was installed?
definetly!
Any other ideas then? Or could you point me towards a really stripped down version of WM6 or one that works real good?
but remember to remove storage card n backup ur contacts etc. before hard reset!
I only installed the ROM tonight so I have nothing on there so no need to backup.
I have the same problem with xplodes 6.13.00 ROM, its worked perfectly for around 3 weeks now. Its brilliant work.Although i have more than one icon in my programs list. e.g two file explorers, two camera's
try using 3trd party software for clean, i'm using SKTools its remove duplicate shortcut, empty folder etc.

It won't go back even after removing it via Start > Settings > System > Remove Programs?
If that doesn't do it, you're going to have to do a hard reset (complete wipe of the phone). Backup everything on your phone! The only things that won't get erased are the things in the SD card.
To do the hard reset: turn off the phone, then press/hold Talk/Send, End, and Power button at the same time until a prompt comes up warning you about a factory reset. Follow the prompt to completely wipe your phone memory.
That will restore everything the way it was when it came from the factory.

I realize that an instance may occur where using the three-button hard-reset is the only option (device won't boot or blank screen), but I wonder if running 'Clear Storage' wouldn't serve the same purpose? Are there any differences in the desired results or are the two methods of resetting a Rhodium identical in this regard?
surely a hard reset is a bit harsh, can't you just install a different tab slider, there must be a stock 2.1 slider floating around somewhere, i'll see if i have one on my Harddrive, you are using stock 2.1 yeh?
One of these two should work for you try each of them as i don't know what build your phones on
To install Go into settings>today-Settings>untick Sense, then install after install retick sense and you should be back on..hope it works for you dude
Thanks very much it has worked after installing the cabs u gave me. Cheerse much appreciated

Thats great news! no need for a HR, glad i could help
I reckon the best paid app i ever got has to be SPB back-up i think its about £20 but well worth it, it doesn't just back-up your PIM(txts, numbers,etc) it backs up everything, i can completely wipe my device and reinstall everything just as it was using this, ive tried there other products but not been that impressed but this i cant live without. Then you can try stuff out without fear of not being able to uninstall!!!

Pls help! Sth wrong with my phone.

recently, i havent been able to install themes downloaded from this forum successfully.
One of the theme i tried is anastasia and dinik theme. My whole clock is missing! icons missing on my home page. My slider( home page) cant moved. The only thing on my home page now is the weather. Now there is 'Title' word on the middle of my home page permanently too. somehow bits of my old theme is on my home page as well. Which weird because i deleted the old theme thru Device>Windows>Appmgr.
This happened before when i used another theme.clock, icon missing.
And now my phone doesnt go to lock screen anymore. I didnt change the settings at all.
My rom version is 1.48.
Pls help i've been having this prob for weeks alrdy. Thanks!
back up and hard reset would be my suggestion.
Oh no! Would u tell what caused this prob ? so that i wont repeat the same mistake again.
And hard reset-> my phone contacts gone too? how do i back up?
sorry for the trouble thanks.
you have probably installed a theme/tweak or mod that is incompatible with the version of either manila or windows that your device is running.
tons of methods to back up.personally all I do is sync my contacts with outlook.thats all I back up.
PHP:
But why doesnt my phone theme not return to the original theme even if i delete the downloaded theme?
Why is that even if i deleted a downloaded icon file or theme, it still remains in the display on my phone page?
sry asking so many qns.
When you install new mods and themes it quite often overwrites the existing files that you would consider the "original theme". So uninstalling does not bring the old files back - it just deletes the new ones.
As samsamuel says, a hard reset is probably your best bet.
Incidentally, whenever your lockscreen doesn't appear when you lock the phone, or when you can't open emails by clicking the preview in the email tab, go to start and then lock (bottom left menu option). That fixes that problem temporarily. The only permanent fix I know for that is a ROM upgrade, as 1.48 is oooooooooold now!
Kill 2 birds with 1 stone and just flash a new ROM.
it could be that the theme is badly written and just overwrites files that then cannot be restored, or the theme wasn't for your system so it's messed the registry, who knows? not me!
Oh. Thanks alot guys!
your help is greatly appreciated!

Thanx heaps and much appreciated!
pItchAn ooiooiooioo
Shot in the dark, but try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6508642&postcount=133
no.....
what you can do is use a file explorer...
best one i can think of is resco explorer
and go to \windows\ delete all the files that are
similar to ie: 2342342_manila (the numbers will all be different)
also find and delete the manilafull.xml file
then reset your device. when it comes back on your sense should start.
note: that any special mods like cookies home tab.. facebook tab special lock screens
etc will all be gone. this will in essense revert your sense back to default.
it will however, be working..
pfft... (post above gps fix) pffft.
-cope
same happened here.. to avoid all the poo of changing settings and delting files, just hard reset ur mobile.. without the sense launched u can still go to start menu setting etc etc.. its the quickest way but u'll loose all ur apps
cioa
First of all, before doing a hard reset or deleting every single manila file on your device, just try deleting \Windows\ManilaFull (.xml) as restart the device.

YES.. try this first. I should have said that in my post.... but ^^ this is correct ^^
also i should mention... regarding deleting your manila files; you wont be able to delete them all because alot of them are stored in the ROM. The ones you CAN delete are replaced with their un-modified version from the ROM automatically. So technically your restoring your original manila files from rom as opposed to deleting your manila files; it doesnt need to sound like a scary procedure. Far less scary then sense not working at all.
