Hey,
a friend of mine just got his SE Xperia, and asked me to install the TouchFLO 3D application on his phone.
During the installation, I accidently removed his 'Media Xperience' and 'Xperia Radio' panels (in start -> settings -> system -> remove programs).
Is there any chance I can get these back? Is there any place I can find the .cab files, or do I have to hard-reset his device?
Ouch, hmm only way as of now is to get access to the extended rom on the device and manually reinstall the cab files. Havent seen anyone posting the files for the internal panels yet.
If not I suggest backing up his files using ppcpimbackup and do a hardreset and redo from scratch and restore his files (contacts, sms, and etc) back.
I had the panel cab in my post. click on my signature

Hi,
I recently installed 'Kick off slot machine' game on my XDA mini s and when i go to 'remove programs' it wont remove it. I've tried soft reseting.
How can i get rid of it?
Can i just go into file explorer and delete the files in its program folder?
yes but u would be better off removing the reg entries aswell allthough it wont cause harm.
tried removing using active sync , add remove programs , as sometimes that works for me where the one on the device does not work.
I have found that quite often uninstalls just don't work. For example, before I resorted to a recent hard reset, I had only a few megs of RAM available. Turns out it was because although it "appeared" that such things had been uninstalled, they had in fact not been uninstalled.
The way I do it now, and I reckon this is the only way to do it, is to go to Add/Remove programs in Activesync and uncheck the box of the app/game to be removed. This seems to work (even on apps installed by CAB or on other machines).

Ok thanks.
By the way, how do you find and delete reg entries? Which folder are they stored in?
Use SK Tools, it is the best soft for cleaning and everything
-www.s-k-tools.com
You'll need something like PHM Regedit, or I use Total Commander. I'm no expert but you'll be able to get help with registry keys etc here.
Alternatively, purchase MemMaid which (I think) removes redundant registry entries.
Oh ok, thanks very much.
Just one more quick question, if you install something, remove it, then decide you want it installed again does it just overwrite the previously created reg entries?
does it just overwrite the previously created reg entries

Yes, if it is the same version of software.

I was using this amazing application but after it's installation i was unable to uninstall any program from "Add/Remove Programs". Not even S-K Tools. The only solution was a hard reset. Do you have anything on mind for this issue?
P.S: The version i was using: 2.2.10
Yes, developer knows about this, he said, new version fixed.
I have ver.2.3.15.6 and tested, good things, Backup is working in WM5.

Hi, was wondering does it backup contacts and have you tried restoring after hard reset?
Yes, I did. The only one problem, SK Tools made funny records about
installed software, so in the list, You have only what was installed after
You installed SK Tools. I think it was already fixed, but didn't test it.
thanks fresh123breeze,
think i'll go for it. its not a lot to pay for what it claims it can do.

Did you try to restore a backup from WM5? The WM6 and WM5 PIM databases are different and you will corrupt WM6 by doing this (so if you use like SPB backup to restore your contacts from WM5, it screws it up).
Here's your fix:
Start>Settings>System>Clear Storage
Type 1234 and hit yes. Reboot and voila. All done.
I promise this is your fix.
i didnt use a spb backup but i did move everything from old xda could i of accidently moved my old pim database? if so where is it located to remove?

Yes..this allows you to get the contacts application working, but how do you get your contacts back if you have used SBP backup?

You don't (or can't) use a WM5 backup on WM6. You would have needed to us a program like PIM Backup to take the backup on WM5, then you can restore that on WM6. Or, just resync with Outlook (if you use that).
As to your other question, what do you mean you "moved" everything from your old XDA? How did you "move" stuff?
i dragged it off in file explorer to my pc and dragged it all back on
basically i need a clean wm6 pim file by sounds of it and need to know location to move it to to get it working again

pim.vol is located in the root of your drive. Use TotalCommander and you can see it there in / .
I've never messed with the file, but you might try renaming it, then do a softreset and see if a new one is created (warning, this could screw up your phone, but it sounds like its screwed up anyway). The other is do a hardreset, or reflash the device.
Hi Guys,
As you are aware we are waiting for the HardSPL, but in the mean time, can you share what Theme you are using which has no issues on your TP2...a cab file would be nice.
This way we know what works on our Vodafone UK branded phones.
Thanks in Advance....
There are a few threads on here dealing with this. But the gist is:
Download this
http://www.4shared.com/file/109330961/b9be5561/TF3DIIBlack.html
Before installing it copy the "2330fc3c_manila" file from the windows directory and put it back after installation. When installing DO NOT let your screen turn off!!! and it takes AGES to install, about 20-30 minutes.
Once it is installed, reboot and you have the default HTC black TF3D theme, with white fonts. You can then install any theme you want without CFC compression

Anyone else use different cabs or use another method ?
Im using this:

Lets you install custom icon sets, font colours, clocks, sliders and shake to change wallpapers!
Its fairly easy to use and loads of different styles out there
Thanks for sharing that ashtemple.
Anymore Vodafone UK users out thier with thier TP2's ?
I know you arent using the crappy theme from vodafone , let us know what you use so that we can share each others themes...saves us all the time and hassle.
Sharing is good....
Let us know
Thanks for the people who have shared thier experience in this...come on people
Thanks Stunno, I have done this, but I think I have cocked up slightly, I did not re-install the manilla file before re-booting, my weather is in French, I assume this would have changed it? I am now unable to install as presumably this will not let you whilst touch flo is running? can I switch off touch flo to re-install this file?
NOW WORKING
how did you remove the file, and get it back? i get perms errors..? thanks.

Use Total Commander or the Resco file manager to copy the file
I copied a couple of times and also got the permission errors, but I think it did actually copy, when I went back into weather it was in English (may have soft reset in the interim)

Just to confirm to people that the above works like a dream. BUT FOLLOW / READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.
For users that dont want to twinker to much in regards to copy this file, save this file, cut this file, paste the file...install another app etc.... USE THIS.
Simple install and a simple tweak and thats it. You are up and running.
I used MaxTT but for me I'm happy with Stunno's method.
Once again thanks for the guys who have posted !!
Thanks Stunno.
Works perfectly.
People might like to make a note of the programs they have on their quick launch "start page" as these need to be setup again.
Rgs,

I'm having trouble with reestablishing Facbook,
I can edit the first of the reg files, but the next two won't open for some reason. I'm using total Commander to edit them.
I've managed to change facebook.disable value to 0, but that's about it, any help appreciated!
I followed the instructions given in these threads, except I copied the manila file after installing. I disabled TF3D, copied the manila, restarted TF3D. It works beautifully.
I also installed from the numerous icon packs and different background from the HDwall collection and my TP2 doesn't look at all like the one shipped by VF.
Go for it guys. Just go for it.

I had this issue too, to work around this just go into the individual contacts that are not linked, select "edit contact" then scroll down to the Facebook link and select the contact from your list there.

Hey ive had audio working until i started installing a heap of applications, now I dont get any audio at all, not even startup audio
originally thought it was the SRS WOW HD but turns out it wasnt that as that is now removed and audio still isnt working. is there anyway i can get all the cab files for my applications and serials etc or fix this with out a hard reset?
One tip I can give you......uninstall the applications (assume you kept the cab files on your PC) and install again one by one.....and see which one causes the trouble.....is some work but a safe route....

with out causing errors?
(link broken up due to new user account thing)
Edit: also on startup there is an app called VoiceCommand located at /windows/VoiceCommand.exe that failes to start each time the phone boots and asks me to reinstall but im unsure what it was installed with..
Hello,
No you can not delete these registry entries!!!
Apparently you installed 2 programs SRS WOW HD and Microsoft voice command. You can delete these programs via start/settings/system/remove programs.
And install again one by one.
Yesterday my phone locked me out, after charging it wouldn't accept my password & I had to do a hard reset.
Most of my utils/progs etc were installed to my memory card & I can use file manager to locate them & run them by running the exe file.
Is there any way of getting them onto the main screen without having to delete & then reinstall them - it looks like it's just the program shortcuts which haved been deleted.
Is it possibe to make new shortcuts & place them on the 'start' screen?
I read in a similar post that pocket mechanic might do something like this - would it, or is there another way?
Thanks.

future tip:
get spb backup application, and back everything up every week or so.
Nice one, thanks for the help both of you.
Search the net for a free program called shortcutcreator i think i got it from one of the pocket pc freeware sites. It does what your looking for scans your card for applications then creates shortcuts in your program folder.
