Dissappearing Today Item Plugin's and in menu

Hi everyone, I know this is a noob questions but only recently I have been filling my XDAIIi up with applications particually today plugins.
I have noticed that when you get to a certain number of plugins, some dissappear from the check list box in the select screen.
One of these is TomTom Nav 5. I use this all the time and if it's not on the today screen i'm stuck!!!
Is there a way of getting an unlimited amount of today items, without them dissappearing fomr the select list menu???
I would greatly appreicaet a reply as soon as possible.
Regards,
lydiachris

nop i think the list in today wil only display 13 or something like that
they should still all be in the registry so if you go in there and remove those you dont use so the list will be shorter the today item you want should
be on the list in today items

Hi thanks for the quick reply, where actually in the Registry are they located??????

Please could someone help!!!!

just use search 99% of all questions asked in this forum have already been asked many times before and answered too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=21236&highlight=today+items
this hit was found by a search of:
today AND items

Rudegar , you're right ...
i think , people never search anywhere ...
they come here , and post a new thread without any search ...
i think that if they don't search , it is because they dont know how to search and what to search ...
and , finally , i think they read a few post on diverse subject and they dream to do the same as the best of this forum , but without understand any of they do ...
For all users , please , before asking a thing that have posted 3 568 984 time , please , use search , and try it yourself to find a solution .....

prob it's partialy a habbit thing
and maybe partialy a experience thing
with using the AND and such terms in the search and only searching like the networking forum if one is looking for mms gprs setting and such
so it would get easier with pratice

I think there's one exception: some postings are that large (20 pages or more) that it's hard to understand and find the right answer because many people have said many things and some are corrected some posts later. When English isn't your native language (like mine) it's sometimes very hard to search and find.

Music ID

Hey all, i really want this as everyone seems to rate it but when you download the CAB file it downloads two link files and an XML which takes you to opera - doesn't seem to want to download like a normal CAB file...still a bit new at all of this but if anyone can tell me how I actually get it installed and working I would be very grateful!
Thanks.

Try this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3041910&postcount=37
Put the cab file on the device, find it on the device using explorer & launch it. It will install.

argh misicid
finally downloaded it didnt work and now cant uninstall searched here did what they said with the reinstall and now i have three dead nusicid icons !! any help please?

Getting rid of MusicID
Hey all, posted on this before but it seems to have gotten lost. I downloaded MusicID using the links people posted, never got it to work so tried to uninstall and it left an icon in my programmes, did what people said and tried to uninstall by reinstalling and now i have THREE musicid icons left none of which work - can someone tell me how to get rid of this horrid programme (which incidentally sadly doesnt compare with Shazam at all :-( )

This is the third new thread you have started on this topic. Please read the sticky at the top of the Forum and stop polluting - this is not a Helpdesk and you are not entitled to an answer.
I suspect diligent use of the search tool would give you what you need - I'm sure I remember seeing a solution

Thank you for your post.
There is no solution posted here as regards to uninstall (and my initial direction was as to "install"), or rather there is one that was posted to another member and does not work, indeed it is a problem many have referenced hence the inquiry (not a demand for a response).
There are many questions posed here with people asking for assistance and many people who are good enough to provide answers recognising that is part of the spirit of this forum - if you do not wish to answer the thread then there is no obligation to do so but I do not feel that people should have any hesitation in posting on any matter they may choose.

If by what your saying you mean there's an broken shortcut to the application under the programs menu that was left behind after you uninstalled the application, you can delete those broken links by going into Windows/Start menu/Programs. Here you should see all the .lnk files associated with every program you have on your phone (including the broken links for musicId). Just delete these and they should be gone. Of course needless to say.....I'm sure you've already uninstalled the application from under start-->settings-->system-->remove programs.

in /windows/Start menu/Programs folder remove the icons.
and i agree with iain.fraser, a simple bump to the original thread should have sufficed

Thank you for the help.
The icons are there when you go windows/start/programs (not in the scroll down start menu or the slide along menu but actually on the programmes screen which shows all programmes i.e just like the icons for all the other applications, activesync, camera etc...) and cant seem to be deleted from there and there is no option to delete icons ( this is following uninstalling the programme by "removing programmes").

Its always good to have a program like SK Tools and officialy uninstall the programs from there to make sure they are completely gone!

Hmmmm that's weird. What options do you get if you tap and hold using your stylus on the musicID icons? Coz well, deleting icons is a pretty straight forward process.

Your slightly hurt tone might have been avoided by your reading the rules of the Forum, which apply to you just as they do to everyone else here.
It is not your request that poses an issue, rather the three requests in fairly quick succession, which edges towards demanding.
Plugging the search terms 'MusicID' and 'uninstall' into the Forum Search facility at the top of the Forum returned two hits, the second of which is a thread around the coolest applications installed. Post 17 of that thread purports to offer a solution to uninstalling. If you have already tried that, you could widen out to other Forums, to the Internet as a whole, or even contact the developers of MusicID before bumping one of your original threads. Any of these would be fine - starting another new thread isn't.
Please do read the sticky - it might prove useful in future

Thanks i know its strange and frustrating - basically it created a new file called "ATT music", you click on that file in the programmes page (not the touch flo programme page where you can select and remove whatever you want but the windows programme page which shows you everything) and it opens a new icon saying "3 music id" i try to delete that by holding the stylus on it and it just says the file cannot be opened and to try reinstalling or restoring it. There are three such ATT files now on my system that i can't delete.

Hmmm...try deleting the files through activesync. Or as a last resort.....use SK Tools. It's pretty effective. You can download a trial version.
Good Luck.

Great thanks - i'll give it a go. help much appreciated!!!

Hi, Sorry to hear it did not work for you. Did you have .net 3.5 installed?
This is the link I used to find the right cab: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3041910&postcount=37
I did read on another forum that the trick to uninstalling it was to install again on top and reply "yes" to the remove earlier version option and then cancel the install after that.
It works very well on my HD - I can sit in the chair across the room from the radio and it will pick up the music fine and after about 30 seconds it has done the sampling, analyzing and provided the track details.
It's not very good on classical music though !!

Thanks cheesy dave. I tried what the uninstall by reinstall and it just gave me another dead icon (now 3 as i tried it twice).
It's a shame as it looks like fun if you can get it to work. I think i have the old net compact (is there a way to check) maybe the first thing i should do is upgrade it.

Hi, you should know if you have .Net 3.5 as it needs to be installed separately. By default the HD comes with the much earlier .Net framework. So if you have to ask then probably you have only the standard. I would recommend installing the new version - there are links in this forum for it. Also, try the wiki pages:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Software
Many applications need the new version to work. I personally have no idea if musicid needs it. It does work fine on my HD and I do have .net 3.5 installed and set as the default.
Here is a useful link that has the registry key you can check to see what .net you have:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460006
I find the musicid fun, I doubt I will use it every day but now and then it will be good to have it available.
Regards, D

Here is the Microsoft link for .Net 3.5:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...3c6b-42f1-9fd9-0041345b3385&displaylang=en&tm
(if the link is no good then go to microsoft and search for "NETCFSetupv35")

Yota phone on Blackstone - no ringtone

Hi, I have been a member here for about 1 month now and after much browsing, searching and lots and lots of reading I think it is time for my first post to ask for help . I have searched for and found 2 previous threads which spoke about this issue, but I never saw any definite answer in these threads on how to solve the problem (as far as I could see anyway). As both of these posts have since been closed, I have no other option than to start a new thread .
I am currently running Dutty's 3.6 (Manila 2.1) ROM and have loaded the YOTA phone app, as I love the black look, which blends in so much better than the Topaz dialer. The problem however is that whenever I receive a call, the phone merely vibrates but does not ring at all (and yes I have checked the settings to ensure it is set to ring). If I uninstall Yota, the ringtone plays again, re-install Yota and again no ringtone .)
Please, I know there where some other members with this problem - if you have manged to solve this, or if anyone else has any other ideas on how to fix this I will be very grateful.

My HTC HD2's problems. plz help

Hi just recently joined this site and well i just wanted to ask ppl some of the questions about my HTC HD2 and see if these are standard things witch most of ppl have or maybe just me. So here is the list of wonderful things that my hd2 does to me:
1. Ghost finger: randomly swaps an app, loads them, when using a quick select links it some times jumps to the other one.
2. Twitching: almost in every app where i use touch controls it would start well twitching. Mainly moving up and down, but now sideways to YAY!
3.Lock: there is no lock on my HD2 i had it for about 4h(since the purchase) then it gone, and no i didn't change any settings.
4.Mail:My mail app doesn't work, I can only view the Mail but i cannot open it. In order for me to open the mail i have to load up the actual mail from the start menu.
5. Keyboard: ohh this is one of the once that make me whanna throw this phone in to the wall sometimes. Basically when i type sometimes when i lift my finger away from the screen after pressing a letter it moves on to a near by letters and types them up. It ether around or to the side up to 4 letters. Therefore making txting practically impossible.(i do have big fingers but that doesn't change a thing, i had 5 ppl sitting down on it typing and all of them had the same problem)
6. final and my favorite is the fact now it randomly slows down. no idea why!(did have NET 3.5 installed and removed. didn't help)
So if u guys could help me get a solution to find a way to fix these that would be awesome cause this is the best phone i had and i just hate these small things which make it a living hell. (Also i am getting a replacement soon so i was just hoping that i wont have the same issues with my new HTC HD2 so thx for helping.)

The new Forum GUI doesn't work on HD2

First of all: I like this forum, it is really a good place to find and exchange informations. Congratulations to the team!
But the new layout/GUI of the forum sucks! At least, when you try to do it with your mobile device.
Usually I go with my HD2 in the forum. Normally through a Post, which I have received through the RSS Feed. If I'm interested in the thread, I subscribe to it.
But with the new layout it is not possible to click and open the thread tools. Just nothing happens.
And especially for a forum which is about mobile devices, this is an absolute NoGO!
Some technical details - I use
- HTC HD2
- StockROM 1.66.407.1
- Opera Mobile 10
- CHT 1.8
Would be really good, if anyone could find the bug.

Hi,
when i use my HD2 with Wifi, i can read the board. It needs some time to load, but it is possible.
But when i'm on the way and try to load it over GPRS or UMTS (if available), it loads only some little parts and then stops. So i can maybe read the first one or two postings of a thread.
With the "old" layout all was fine and easy. So i think, the new layout is not really mobile-campatible.
For the users it should be possible to change the layout between the currently and a mobile-friendly modus.
Greetings
Hardy

I actually contacted the Owners/Mods about this, the reply was, in a nutshell, "A mobile version is on the list, but a lot of stuff going on right now, so it is not a priority" ...
I am sure they will get to it at some point, but I did see somewhere a way to switch back to the old view ... hmmm will have to look for that again ...
EDIT: under http://forum.xda-developers.com/profile.php?do=editoptions , the very last option choose the custom skin ... it is the old version ...

Hmm. I can't recall having any issues with the new skin on opera 9.7.

Running also great here on Opera 9.7 .

I don't read it much on my HD2, mostly on the PC. One thing I hate though is the threads I've replied in don't show up as so when there's new post even though there's suppose to be a little down arrow in the thread icon. The icon does show if there are no new post though.
