problem with UltimateLauncher with more than 2 todayplugins

I'm testing this nice app but I've got several problems after the first setup.
If i insert in the varius tab more than 2 today plugins like Pockerweaver and Pocket Digital Clock in one tab and Todayagenda in other one, every time i enter into the program setup for adding or modifing something and i confirm the modification, my device hang. I need to softreset.
Does someone else have the same problem?
I've got I tyTn (I've tested with both WM 6.0 and 6.1)

I've experienced that sometimes during set up...It happened somewhat randomly, but not so much to prevent me from doing what I needed to set up. Also, it doesn't do it now that everythig is set. You might try:
1. make sure all your plugins are not enabled in the normal Today set up before you try to add them into a tab or sub tab.
2. properly set the "Activate plugin on startup" and "Save memory" checkboxes. I generally have the first only checked on the "main" tab items and unchecked on all other tabs. Also, I generally have the "Save mem" unchecked for the main, and checked for the others.
I can't say this will stop it from happening, but i did expereicnce different results when I played with them some...

Thanks a lot for the answer...I've followed you tricks...but in my case the problem appears in a systematic way :-((((

I love UL but its still a tiny bit buggy. It just doesn't seem to like certain today plugins. I don't have a rhyme or reason for it, but sometimes it doesn't play nice.

PocketWeaver?
Could it be PocketWeaver? I've used UL for several months now with MANY today plugins. Currently I am using it with both PocketDigitalClock and TodayAgenda. Since PocketWeaver is the only one I haven't tried could that be what UL is not behaving well with?
At one time I had 5 plugins running in 3 tabs and UL setup has never hung for me.

How long did you wait before a soft reset. On my device I have to wait quite a bit for the screen to refresh after any configuration changes. I have 4 tabs with 7 plugins going right now and it does not hang.

I noticed I couldn't get the Audio Manager plugin to work properly in UL, wouldn't expand on selection.

I have phone weaver running without issue. Phone Alarm was giving me problems and very infrequently batterystatus

UPDATE: i think to have found the reson why...I've set all the ico dimension to a "correct" dimension, like for an ICO with maximum of 48px i've set 48px and not 52 or something more and for an ico of 68 i've set 68 not more or less...and all is working weel now. I can do ini refresh and modify the settings without any phone hang.

I figured I try out UltimateLaunch and I made a new tab and added BatteryStatus today plugin. It locked up, after soft reset it locks up within a few seconds. Any ideas how I can fix this without a hard reset? Thanks
Chris
EDIT: I was able to get to the Today screen and disable UltimateLaunch after about 20 tries and some caffeine! I disabled battery status in the today screen this time and turned of the minimize in Ultimate Launch. This fixed my issues. Thanks anyway.

Sorry a newbie question. How do I actually put in more than 1 today plugin into the home tab of UL? Does the software allow that? I would like the whole today screen to rotate n not only part of it.
Thanks in advance for the reply.

Adjust the height and add a 2nd plugin, just like you did with the 1st.

If you want to have more than one today plugin on the same tab (i.e., HTC Home with another plugin underneath it) be sure to "combine" the tab.
FYI, the perfect fixed height for UL, with the system tray still visible, is 245 pixels.

Thanks very much for all your help. I got it.

Maybe you Gurus can help me....
I wish to have MyFaves as a UL plug-in but it will not show up unless I have it checked in the Today screen items, then it shows up twice (once in UL & once on my Today screen). Can anyone help me? BTW I have a cooked ROM & am using DuPrade's MyFaves cab file.

...267 if you don't have the system tray.
I too experienced some lockup issues using Battery Status. I have since unloaded it and no lockups since. I'm thinking it's anything actively monitoring the system that UL doesn't like. Although i have RLToday installed and using it for my msgs notifications, but that is a registry read.

Back to TF3D when in landscape mode

Hi,
I just did a hard-reset on my phone, because gyrator (think) wasn't working properly and i hoped that a reset would fix this. However, i'm still having the same problem as before.
In TF3D everything works smooth, exactly how it should be working. The problem occurs when i'm in any application (typing sms or e-mail / browing with opera). As soon as i turn my phone to landscape modus, it turns the screen like it should, but after one second in landscape mode, the phone goes back to the TF3D interface. As a result, i'm not able to browse in landscape modus or type a sms/e-mail in landscape modus.
I think this has something to do with Gyrator (still all the standard settings after installation), since before the reset, the problem occured when i installed the program. However, it might also be another application.
I installed the following programs (i ignored the programs that i'm sure of that are not causing the problem, since i installed them for the first time and i had the problem before):
- G-Alarm
- Coreplayer
- Advanced Configuration Tool 3.2 (still standard settings)
- Massimo Colored Top Bar
- Microsoft .NET CF 3.5
- NoData
- Resco explorer
- Schap's advanced task manager
- Schap's registry editor
- tnyynt SD tuneUp
I tried the search function on the forum, but couldn't find a possible solution. Are there any people here that are familier with my problem?
Thanks!

I had the same issue. I isolated the issue to having 2 programs that handled rotation on some level.

I have exactly the same problem (tested with comics reader, opera...)
Yet I have uninstalled Gyrator... Could Gyrator have corrupted something? I suspect also the colored taskbar to be somehow responsible (as it had already corrupted my boot with another customised taskbar...)
EDIT: Problem Solved
I just uninstalled the last colored taskbar which had not the problem with corrupted boot, but which was the reason for this bug... problem solved for me

Damn, i loved the colored taskbar...is it still possible to have both (maybe a different way of installing the colored taskbar)?

Interesting. I also have the colored icons taskbar. So far running only on program seems to work on my end. I will keep tabs on this. Thanks.

A more complete test would be necessary to really determine the problem... the good news is that everything is ok now for me
the bad news is no more colored taskbar until another try (next time I install a colored taskbar, I will try every known crash test )

There does seem to be a conflict with Opera and replacing the task bar icons, specifically the battery icon. Try installing Schaps Advanced Config and change the "Today -> Show on titlebar" from "Battery" to "Clock".

I was playing some more today. It does seem to be the colored task bar. I added the additional icons for Bluetooth. After that, the issue re-ocurred. A soft reset seemed to solve it and no issues since.

You should try the darklord colored titlebar, it does not cause these conflicts. Search the Blackstone forums for the link as I don't know it by heart and the original version is in Italian (the link in this forum is google translated).

This is the one I am using.

I also had darklord colored titlebar and had the same problem. When I switched to landscape it crashed into TF3D. Then I uninstalled titlebar and everything works right. For me the landscape view is more important then colored titlebar. You could try to install colored titlebar by the .dll file, not by .cab, but I don't think that will solve the problem. The best would be, if somebody who has colored titlebar and no crashing problem, would write how he did it.

For me it was the same but then with Massimo's colored topbar icons.
I've uninstalled it and now it works just fine.
If someone has the colored topbar icons and doesn't have the crashing problem, please post which one you're using.

I have still have the bar installed and have had no issues since the last soft reset. I was playing in Opera and You Tube with no issues.
I am going to install changescreen again and configure it. I will post results.

Jacne Blue-earth taskbar installed and everything looks ok until now

HTC Gsen in More Apps (from TP2)

If you guys didn't see this http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=2225 the gsensor has now been enabled in a lot of applications without the third party apps (this is HTC's gsen from the TP2 with a mod to the registry). You need to install the attached apps (which come from JMZTaylor of PPCGeeks): http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=58596
You'll get gsen love in email, contacts, IE, calendar, etc and all you do is change the registry values in HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList to add or remove apps from the gsen list.
Herg is adding a few apps to this list so this will likely be updated shortly.

Hi, what does it do exactly. does it scroll or just rotate the page?

just causes the screen to rotate

This is cool, thanks.
BUT could you tell me what "Jmz gsensor setup.cab (4.8 KB)" does?
I installed herg62123's cab and it rotates all the simple apps I need, and leaves TF3D alone. Then I installed Jmz gsensor setup.cab and the only change was that TF3D tries to rotate, which I don't want.

seems to have a problem with the HTC Calculator ... it will rotate and go back to the TF3D screen ....

If you install Herg's app that is all you need as it incorporates the cab in the first posting with a few additional applications that herg added (so it rotates in more apps). I have it working on the calculator and it works as expected- it causes rotation. For me it does not force me back to TF3D

I find that S2P will not rotate with this installed.
Anyone has the same issue with me?

This is fantastic, thanks!
I was using Gsen but the tiny white pixel in the top middle really annoyed me. Not sure if it was intentional or not, but it was there when Gsen was active.
This also does not seem to rotate Manilla when the device is locked, as Gsen occasionally did.
Also much quicker to rotate.
I have tried Gyrator2, Gsen and this one, and this is easily the best one to use on the THD.

I can rotate almost everything with the new sdk; however i have problems with spb wallet: it rotates only if i keep it opened for half an hour in background (seems the sdk takes the whole life to recognize this module is running).
Btw:
- class for .net apps is #NETCF_AGL_BASE_
- wildcard (*) is allowed as window class name

apparently, for me, it doesn't work at all .....
i tried turning on the camera, once i turn it sideways, it will minimise the camera and go back to TF3D.... ditto for calculator, and any screen that it rotates .... it will minimise the current screen and push me back to TF3D home page ...
anybody else having this problem?

hello i need some help i install the Jmz Diamond2 G-Sensor.cab and Jmz gsensor setup.cab. nothing happen when try to sent sms it still didn't rotate actually nothing rotate. i reread the form i think im missing this part "HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList". I new at this so i don't know what it mean or how to do it. If that not the problem then anyone know why it didn't rotate after the 2 cab file i install. Thx for Help

Camera Initialisation Error

Hi,
Before posting this, I searched the forum and have only found posts years old.
This issue I am facing at the moment is a camera/video camera issue stating the following:
Unable to initialize camera. Failed to set up the camera device.
I only really noticed this happening since doing camera related registry tweaks such as the 8MB, or additional hidden modes. Originally I applied the tweaks using a registry editor, but now I use the lastest BSB Tweaks application. The issue seems to arise whether I have the tweaks turned on or off so I am not suggesting that the tweaks are actually to blame. I have been tweaking this phone so much that it could be anything.
Anyway, a random soft reset here and there fixes it, but I was just wondering if anyone else has experieced this issue with the HD2?
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you may have inadvertantly caused this issue with a bad registry edit.
If so, you'll need either a complete overhaul of the camera registry settings, or a hard reset.
I've only ever used the camera tweaks in BsB, and my camera works fine (I've never seen your problem). If you like, I'd be happy to either export or list the registry keys and values off my phone that might help.
Were all the registry hacks within one key, do you know, or where they in different places. (I don't know if there's just one key for camera settings, with sub-keys, or if they're spread about the registry.)

Hi there,
I've been getting this also, I think I've narrowed it down to the swype keyboard I'm using...
I haven't changed default keyboard with SIP so I have to manually change keyboard whenever I boot, sometimes the swype keyboard doesn't come up, it flashes like it's going to change but remains on the default keyboard. When this happens I can't start the camera. When the change is seemless the camera works fine. A soft reset usually fixes it.
Are you using swype? Have you tried removing any other tweaks to see if it helps?

I am using Swype also, but never experienced an issue using this great keyboard. After posting the message, I did a soft reset and it is working again.
I think I will remove Swype for a while and see if the problem returns. I have all the CABs on my SD card anyway, so not a hassle to reinstall.

Since there's only a few of them, I'll just list the values I have, rather than export the lot and end up changing ALL your camera settings.
These are the values for the registry keys in the 1st post on that page.
HKLM\software\htc\camera\image\jpegquality\superfine
5Msize = 746028
HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\P2

Hope this helps
Edit:
How strange - I didn't put that space in "superfine", and it's not there when I edit the post!

It doesn't happen all the time, only when I try to change from default to swype keyboard and it *doesn't* load properly, then the camera issue appears. I've also applied all tweaks for the camera using BSB.
It's very random but I've now flashed to Miri's rom and so far no swype issue and no camera issue!

Thanks, I will check these settings before and after toggling them in BSB Tweaks.

My hd2 has the same problem.
I just tried hard reset my device and install new rom, but it still comes out all day.
Some time a soft reset can take effect, but some time only hard reset can make the camera work.
When the issue comes out, it seems the Opera Mobile 10 beta can not work correctly either.
PS: I didn't use any of the tweaks.

I also got this error once and a soft reset corrected it. Don't know the actual cause.
I have BsB tweaks installed, but no Swype.

I had this problem before too, i remember it happened after I made registry tweak on the video recording quality. its gone after I restore to the default value. I did not use swype keyboard, but i did installed bsb tweak.

I had this problem as well when trying to create my own reg cab to change all the settings I wanted upon a hard reset. It messed with a lot more than just camera not initializing. I narrowed it down to the camera reg settings but not sure which one, I couldn't bare hard reseting my device 5 times in one day.
The only reg tweak I have for the camera is the 8MP one which hasn't messed it up.

happened to me too.
have BsB tweaks installed, dont have swype.
only soft reset fixes the problem.

I didn't make a registry tweak manually, I did this with BsB tweaks and don't have any problems with it. I really think you need to change back, the reg. tweaks you did manually! GL!

ok, restored all default camera values in the registry - problem still exists.
i found out that if i soft reset the device and then start the camera it works fine.
problem happens when i use a program before using the camera.
any ideas?

Just uninstalled this. Lets see if that makes a difference. I dont even use the camera, so despite noticing the problem, it doesnt actually affect me much.

I have this problem approx. every third time I want to use the camera. The only way to fix it then is a soft reset.
I've installed several tweaks/patches but no swype.

Hi all,
I had the same problem but I manage to solve it in a very weird way.
This might sound really strange, but have any of you put something between the battery and the cover? When I went home over Christmas I use another SIM card to lower my roaming charges. I didn't want to loose my other SIM card when not is use so I used a piece of tape and put the sim card on the soft "pillow" on the back of the battery cover. It just barely fit and I was happy with the fit.
When I did this I also started to experience that the camera could not initialize. At first I thought it had something to do with my old SIM, and I did a test to put in my new SIM and the problem disappeared (this without my other sim between the battery and the cover) I thought I just had to live with it until I got back and could start using the proper SIM. But when I got back I switch SIM but the problem still existed. I then started to suspect that it was actually the other SIM pressing against the battery that was the culprit and as soon as I removed that the camera has been working fine.
So the only conclusion I could make is that if there is pressure on the battery that somehow causes the camera to not initialize properly.
Hope this helps...
Cheers
Jonas

have the same problem. i have bsbtweaks installed but not swype.

Sense will not rotate but some apps will

Hi all... my HD2 seems to have developed a very annoying problem that I don't seem to be able to figure out.
I think I have introduced it by having both BSB tweaks and Gav's Touch Tools installed but basically all of the rotating sense screens will not rotate. I first noticed this when I was using Copilot and had the software set to detect device settings (for rotation)..... nothing happened. I worked around this by using Gyrator but thats not ideal... I played around with the rotation settings in BSB and Gav's but to no avail... so I deleted all the settings in each.... again no difference.
I tried uninstalling both apps and Gyrator and again, no luck... I've tried different combinations of software and resetting their settings but again no change. With Gyrator installed the screen will rotate but in the case of say the Music player the potrait view is simply split to a side by side portrait view rather than the sliding album art view.
In the album view, again this does not display correctly and appears to be a shrunken portrait view displayed in landscape. In some cases rotation is fine, for example Kimodo Player.
Somewhere along the line I seem to have introduced this problem and removing or installing various rotation apps makes no difference. As a last resort I suppose I may have to hard reset?
In the case of BSB and Gav's I did delete all the rotated app settings, could this be the problem.... even if BSB or Gavs has been installed? Is there anyway I can get back to their default settings?
I am using
Manilla 2.5.2012 and Rom 2.13.531 Artemis 17.0 WWE
(by the way I have searched the forums but couldn't find anything specifically like this problem).
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

If I had to guess I'd say its to do with registry entries being altered then not put back to default when uninstalling / deleting settings and or conflict between apps affectimg rotation.
Don't hard reset just yet I'm sure toil get an answer.

Think I have fixed it... disable rotation in BSB and installed TX_Total_Landscape.cab from here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=631049
I think it has just reset the registry settings.
