Hi
I have this problem after install and reinstall some apps in order to get a simple program to do softresets in my Topaz (D2):
Every time I turn on my D2, and inmediatly after to input my pasword, it opens the menu asking me if I want to turn off my device (see screenshot).
I think one of the apps that I tested has made some changes in the registry, but I have no idea about where can I find these changes.
Someone can help me? maybe someone knows which part of the registry I must look to solve my problem...
Diamond 2
ROM 1.39.412.1 (ESN)
Windows Mobile 6.1
Manila: 2.0.37890.0
Solved: One of the apps installed a file called "ShutXP" in the "Windows/Start" folder. I deleted this file and it solved my problem.
Sorry for a stupid and auto-solved post

This problem has happened to me a few times with different ROMs but I haven't be able to find the pattern nor the solution!
Basically everything starts very well, when I install a new program it appears in "Add/Remove Programs" in Settings. Then at some point strange thing happens, when I install a new program (any program, not specific) it no longer appears on the list! However, I can see it as installed and it actually appears on the "Add/Remove Programs" of ActiveSync(v4.2)! I can remove it by using ActiveSync but not on the device because I can't select it!
And the other strange thing is, I can see the program's folder under "\Windows\AppMgr\" (every program installed manually should has its folder in here as I understand). And I can also see it under the registry "\HKLM\Security\AppInstall\". It just DOES NOT appear on the device "Add/Remove Programs" list! This happens to all programs after the problem starts but those installed before that point are still displayed!
I am wondering if anyone knows the reason why this happens and if there is any solution like registry hack anything like? Although this is not the end of the day as I can still remove them via ActiveSync, it does annoys me because of the fact that I can't remove it directly from the device.
Thanks in advance!!
Try sk tools software , it has a detailed info for add or remove prog.
Hi,
I have the same problem, not certain what caused it, but you can get items back in the list by following the steps below:
Get programs back into uninstall list:
1) go to..
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\AppInstall\
2) Select the application directory that is not showing up in the list
3) Change the DWORD Role data from 40 to 24
4) Now the application will show up in the list.
Cheers

Excellent!!
Thanks a lot for the advices guys!!
I will try Rowan's suggest first because it is easier and sounds good to me! Only thing is I have flashed my Universal so currently the problem is gone. I will try it if it happens again or I may try it on my Windows Mobile Device Emulator later on.
Hi,
I have a cingular 8525 with the default cingular ROM ( will change it later want to wait a litle while)
I am trying to install a Cab and i get this notification:
the installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions
I know this is a simple registry hack and i seen a couple but I have not seen anything specific to hermes.
Please give me a link to directions
Thank You
Here... Install this CAB to the phone
This did not help
I installed the Remove Security Cab and it installed with no problem, but when i try to install: CommButton-Toggle-Vibrate-Fix.CAB
I still get the same notification.
Thanks
Did more searching still cant solve it
I read some more posts and found that making sure processes are not running might solve the problem.
I went to memory and stoped all programs and I sitll can't install the: CommButton-Toggle-Vibrate-Fix.CAB
Are there like system processes which are not showing up in memory - running programs ? Maybe I need to get into those and stop them?
Any other sugestions?
Please point me into the right direction.
Thank You

Purely on the point of running processes - these will not show up in programmes in memory (except in very broad terms). An application such as sktools will show running processes.
(I am not saying this will solve your problem though)
Mike
ok i will try getting a prog and stoping more stuff to see if i can install?
Any other sugestions?
Tried using SKtools to stop everyhing possible still cant install the CommButton-Toggle-Vibrate-Fix.CAB
Is there anyone out there that knows how to fix this problem???
Please Help
thanks
Is there a way maybe to instead of installing this cab file to do it manualy??
Can I somehow modify registry to do the same as this cab is doing?
thanks
As a general rule, if I have an "unstoppable" process, I power cycle the phone and then execute the cab without opening ANYTHING else (like the comm manager in this case). Give it a shot.
I just tried that turning it off and on and trying to install, also doing soft reset and trying to install. Nothing works as soon as I click on it in a second i get "Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions."
Please tell me what else I can try??
Finaly got what I wanted
I never got the stupid cab to install, but I found a different cab which let you assign vibrate to anything ( http://www.8525software.com/)utilities so when i hold PTT button it switches to Vibrate
Thanks for all that tried to help me.
damn, my mogul got f*cked up after installing touchflo. Not trying to blame this program but maybe there could be some conflict? After i installed it and didnt really like it, i tried goin to remove program in setting to remove this, but guess what, nothing showed up in there. For some odd reason i cant remove any program from my phone because the screen was blank. Then i tried to install another program and said unsuccessful whenever i tried to install anything. Does this happened to anyone else? any solution
I have the same problem on mine. I will let you know if I can figure out a solution.

I had a different problem awhile back after installing Total Commander, any new programs that were added didn't show up in the remove programs menu.
What I had to do is use Activesync to remove them, not sure if it will work in your cases though, but hook up with A.S. and on your PC in A.S. open tools/add remove programs and check/highlight what you want removed.
Good Luck
I am having same problem, please someone help.
REMOVE PROGRAM list is empty after ftouchflo installation and touch cube installation.
ACTIVE SYNC not working either.
please help
There was another thread on this(No Items in Remove Programs), but it didnt go anywhere.
This just also happened to me. I also found that I could not install programs and that me phone would not sync... This happened right after installing Slither Cube, and efrost FTouchFlo.. so I went to uninstall and ran into the same thing...Deleted items from the startup folder and still the same thing.. deleted files from the program files section and same, also tried a soft reset 10X....so I had to do a hard reset....
Me too.
I just hard reset. After reading everywhere, this was the only option.
i hope someone knows how to fix this cause i really loved how the latest touch flo cube cab worked on my phone.

Hello to all,
QuickGPS updates via WLAN work fine for me (Michyprima's ROM WM6.1 v3.5), however I always have to open the program via its icon in the settings menu which does take some time.
Is there any way to create a link for it on the Today screen?
Any help is appreciated
In the programs options, you can have it give a notification in your calendar when it expires and that brings up the program if you click it from the today screen.
Hmm I already did this before but something didn't work...I will try again, thanks so far.
Hmm, didn't work so far. Is there any way to create a link from some system settings on the Today screen?
On my stock 7501 it is on the Today screen as part of the
HTC plugin.Have you tried to create a link using Total Commander
or another file app and place it in the Windows/Startmenu?
This would allow you access from 1st screen.
Thats's exactly my problem, bigtsr, since I don't know where to look for the original QuickGPS program/system setting in order to link it...
EDIT: Now I get the picture, according to the registry quickgps.exe should be linked within home launcher, however there is no quickgps.exe anywhere, only quickgps.exe.0409.mui...any help from the ROM experts (Michyprima R6.1 SPL3.5) would be appreciated.
Problem solved; in this ROM quickgps.exe has been renamed to SeaSGEE.exe, however all registry entries still refer to the original file name...I don't understand how quickgps could actually be started with a wrong registry link???
Very well, if anyone else has problems with quickgps on the latest ROM R6.1 from MichyPrima, it could be related to this.
Hey guys. I bought a clone HTC Touch 3G from Davismicro.com
Basically, I've watched videos on the net and have seen people use these clones, and they come with HTC TouchFlo/Manilla 2D. Mine however, did NOT come with it installed. It just boots to the regular windows 6.1 pro menu.
Normally, I'd email the company but theyre on chinese newyear holiday. Can anyone please help me on tell me how to get touchflo installed on this device?
(If the device is a clone, its a pretty good clone. HTC Branding everywhere.)
EDIT: By not installed, I mean it is not on the phone. So it looks like I'll need the ROM or theme of it somehow. Help pleaseeeeee?

You can easily install TF2D (M2D). If you search XDA, you can get the cab files.
Thank you. Is there a step by step process? (I am unsure what to run/install once I would have the files on my phone.)

You can download the application from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173
How to, basically..
1) download the .cab file to your PC and transfer it to your phone.
2) on your phone, run the .cab file and it will auto install.
3) after that, you can leave the .cab file or delete it.
Where is the .cab file on that link? When I click the blue "DOWNLOAD" letters, it leads me to a forum. I don't know what to get from the form. I'm new to all this.
EDIT: I got the cab from a post on that seperate forum on the DOWNLOAD link.
MY only issue is: After installing, the phone just says "Touch here to launch TouchFLO". I have a "clone" of a HTC Touch 3G, and I am running Win 6.1, and the MD2 is what I believe to be the newest version. I've searched here, and people mention to download some shared dll's or something. I have no idea what to do.
I downloaded the .cab file from the mobility digest forum post called "UPDATE 5-29-09 COMING SOON - FIXING ERRORS on Jade Manila 2D Build 1.20.19131520.0"
at "This is the link to m2d cab here: 2DManila_1_20_19131530_00"
EDIT 2: I downloaded cracing's m2d for non htc cell phones. And it works, but it seems kinda slow, and doesnt autorun. (Every startup, I have to enable it again. Any help on this? (The m2d for non htc cell phone is just an .exe that I run.). Plus I need to download like all of these programs to avoid getting errors. :S
EDIT3:Web Browser does not load through cracings m2d, albumsearcher.exe cannot be found, weather says its 36 degrees even though its WINTER (Obviously in fahrenheit. How do I change it to celsius?), and settings has all these blank buttons (which have little pictures of the phone beside them. How do I fix all this?
I am not sure how else to help you. I've installed on HTC Kaiser without any problem.
Your problems could be due to the clone set.
Ive got it all working now. Except I have an unrelated problem. Text messages work fine, but whenever I try to make a phone call it says "Phone: The operation failed".
Ive read online that this is because the phone is trying to send data while making the phone call. I do NOT have a data plan, and data service under the settings is 'OFF'. (I cant even turn it on. If I try, it just auto turns off after.)
Help?
edit: i got it to work. somehow. i had to turn everything off in settings, and then on again. :S Maybe the phone needed data service off eventhough it already was. Hmmph.
i have the same problems as Lyth.
AlbumSearcher can not be found or doesn't have a certificate.
in an older version it worked. but there were a lot of shell errors.
does anybody know how to fix it?
