Does anyone have any ideas on this? I am looking for a way to have my custom ROM boot with the radio off (until I turn it on would do the trick also). My reason ... I turn off the radio, run backups, flash ROM (phone turns on), I get a text message (no contacts yet, so I don't know who its from) and I loose the message once I do a restore.
I will be attempting to write some software to auto-restore the backups also ... This would make flashing a painless process. When you are developing a custom ROM, there is a LOT of flashing.
Thanks.

Don't select "Delete messages from database" in PIMbackup while restoring.
That is my work-around ... I use SPB Backup on a schedule to backup every day. My work-around is to backup the "missed" messages with PIM Backup, restore my SPB backup, then restore just the "missed" messages with the "Delete messages from database" option selected ... The restore appears to hang, but it does complete if you give it enough time. I prefer SPB Backup because the restore is a LOT faster ... I have about 4500 SMS messages in my phone, and PIM Backup restores them quickly, but takes about 1 second for each one to load in the Messaging app.
Thank you for the feedback.
Try areas like
Code:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State
phone=0
wireless=0
I think I had these in a provxml and the phone would not start until I went into CommManager and restarted it.
There are flags under this key in subkeys like coldreboot, on and reboot. I am not sure what they need to be set to, if at all, but maybe this will head you in the right direction.
RoryB - Thank you ... I'll give that a try later tonight. I think I tried just setting phone to 0 already ... I'll play around with it and see if I can pull it off.
PS - I added a signature.
Ok ... I tried setting these two values manually in a running ROM using a registry editor ... This did not disable the radio. I am going to export my registry to a file with the radio on, and again with the radio off ... I'll compare these files and find the keys/values I need to set. When I find them, I'll post em here in case anyone else wants this functionality.
Start your device without SIM card after flashing. Do your restore and insert SIM.
OK, I've made a small exe for you, place it in UC script of
your ROM or execute anytime you want. It should disable phone
radio using TAPI interface, just like Comm Manager do (I think)...

It didn't work ... I mean ... The program turned off the radio, but the text message was already received by the phone. I think I have to remove the carrier settings from the ROM, then install via a CAB after the radio has been turned off.

or: lock the sim by a PIN code....after first boot, you have to enter the PIN for the SIM, if you don't, you do not get any service

So place it somewhere in registry startup (for example HKCU\Software\HTC\Bootlauncher\Apps) and add a PROVXML entry to delete this value during customization...
This sounds interesting. Would I need to change order of any apps in bootlauncher reg? I'll give it a try. Have a problem sometime with connection setup fighting with UC for screen.
Not sure if you "remove the SIM card" guys realize this ... This is a CDMA phone ... There is no SIM card.
On my device, the Apps key doesn't exist ... Just Services. Can I just create the Apps key? I was thinking something similar to this in the HKLM\init key "Launch##" values. Not sure which number to put it as.
Here is a list of the values in my HKLM\init
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]
"Depend50"=hex:14,00,1e,00
"Depend20"=hex:0a,00
"Launch10"="shell.exe"

this is a part of my autorun rgu... if I change the turnradioflag key to 1 it shuts it off and keeps it off until I turn it back on
Use the above one if you use Autorun, if you use RunCC then use the below.

Change Turnoffradio to 1, then it wont turn radio on, until you turn it on manually!

I did this, when the phone first boots it gives a cprog is not a valid wm program error message. I went to CommManager and system was in flight mode I selected phone to start. It shows selected, but never connects to service. I checked key and it was set back to 0. Tried reset and still no good. Taking it back to origninal.
Nevermind: there was a corupted setup so cprog did not work. Fixed that. These settings did not stop the radio in my phone.
I changed the TurnRadioFlag value to 1, and the "LOCK:Enabled" line in SDConfig.txt turns the radio off. The problem is, the radio is still turned on before this point, so by the time the radio is turned off, any pending text messages are already received. I even tried setting the ...
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State]
"Wireless"=dword:00000000
"Phone"=dword:00000000
Something a little different.
Try cooking ROM with cprog.exe called _cprog.exe and use something to rename it after you get started.
accidentially read through this 3d..
i suggest applying these lines in a rgu or app.reg if you use new bepe kitchen:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\RIL]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Phone]

Hi everyone..
Ive been observing this 'error' on some of the builds here..
When i go to my Inbos, click on a message n point to foward > sms ,
Instead of the "foward " form, i get the "reply" form..
ie, it takes me to a page with the senders number, and space for me to type in a reply...
Is this a Microsoft issue?
---------------------------------------------
for reproducing the issue, i am currently Using the ROM from the 3rd post here..
1> Start > Text [ Go to inbox if u are not already in it..]
2> Do not open any message yet, stay on the inbox screen,
3> Tap and hold a message till the drop down menu appears,
4> tap "Foward' > SMS ..
Result : instead of "fowarding" the message it takes you to a screen where u can reply to the sender...
This is not MS issue..Can you please let us know that which Build and which Handset you are using.
Actually after reading your msg I had again checked it on my i780 and my bros X1 but both do not has any error.
I use 23081 and 23071 respectively.
i got this issue in quite a few ROMs here..
1> Karans ultimatre v6 gave me this issue, didnt try the v7 yet... [23016 i think]
2> Right now im using a build 21857.5.0.66 [ thts wht d "about" shows]
But the chef dheeraj says he used 21854 by Crazy...
i got the Rom here..

By the way, thanks dheerajk27, its a good ROM...
i had to Nandroid the other day. im on stock rooted EVO rom. i noticed i tried to send an email and it is stuck on sending status. In fact, it doesnt send. I recieve email with no problem, but if i check it on my phone, it does not sync up with my desktop gmail. im thinking something is wrong with the outgoing service... has anyone else had this issue? any ideas on how to fix?
hmm, i seemed to have found a fix... went to manage app's and force stopped, cleared data, and cache. syncing is back in order... hope this helps someone in the future.
Had the same thing happen to me recently. I tried force closing and reopening, but that didn't help...didn't try wiping the cache.
I did find another workaround that helps:
Issue 2565: GMail: message stuck on "Sending..."
Comment 8 by travis.swanston, Aug 09, 2010
WORKAROUND TO THIS ISSUE:
This is somewhat labor-intensive if you have a lot of stuck messages, but it worked perfectly for me:
1. Open "outbox".
2. Open thread with stuck message.
3. Reply to the first message in the thread, but when it presents you with the reply window, simply save the empty message as a "draft".
4. Back out of "outbox", and enter "drafts".
5. Open the appropriate thread. Instead of the draft you just created, it will instead open the first stuck message as a draft. From here, I think you can do whatever you want - either discard or send. If there is more than one stuck message in this thread, simply keep opening the thread in "drafts" - and each time it will move you to the first remaining stuck message in that thread. When you finally make your way down to the (empty) draft you just created, you can simply discard that.
6. Repeat this process for all stuck messages in the threads in "outbox".

Hello,
If you are having problems with your Swype where it shows a message every time you change language about database: "There was a problem opening the Swype database. It may be corrupt or in the wrong format".
Don't panic, don't go rushing and reinstaling/flashing firmwares, this has a very simple solution which by the way I couldn't find in the forums so I'm posting it here.
All you have to do is this:
MENU -> Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
Here you open the context menu and make sure the Filter options is set to show ALL applications.
Search for Swype, select it, and click on the Clear Data button.
That's all, next time you open a input text screen, you might get an error and Swype will Force Close... just open again the input text screen and All languages will be working fine again.
Note: YOU WILL LOOSE ALL YOUR CUSTOM WORDS ADDED TO EVERY SWYPE DICTIONARY (be warned). But at least you'll be able to use Swype again
On my 4.3 MK2 - rooted, I was trying to add a custom ringtone to one of my contacts within the contacts app but it would continually crash when trying to apply the ringtone. I found a solution on the Verizon support forums that seems to have fixed it, I have not rebooted to test to see if it sticks but it works for now:

Try this and see if it helps: go to phone settings-->More, then select Date and Time. Change the date format to something else then change it back to the format you wanted. Save and go back. Worked for me permanently.
