Picture viewer doesn't start up ???

Hi Everybody,
Today I have simply tried to have a look at my recent photo's but apparently the standard picture viewer doesn't start up. How can this be screwed up, it sits in the ROM, isn't it ? Maybe it has an INI or other config. file which is corrupted/missing ?? I was trying to search the forum for such a problem, but nothing found...
Please give me a hint if you can.

This is ONLY a hint because I have a Wizard...O2 XDA Mini S...and my Pics and Videos viewer stopped working. I eventually discovered it was because I'd installed the Eten dialer on my phone.
Don't know how this may help but hope it gives some clue.

iainmann,
Thanks for the hint but unfortunately it is not my case.. Other idea anyone ?

Good if you could list out the recent installed software

If youre tapping on the program icon and its not starting then try searching for the actual program (Normally in \windows), and try launching that way.
If youre tapping on a picture and its not starting then have a search on the web for some kind of file association program - perhaps the photo file extension has become dis-associated from the picture viewer.

Hard reset?
Start "Explorer", go to "/windows" and find "pimg" file. Try to start it. If it won't run, then you got virus (or bug

first of all: thanks for all the replies, just to summarize what I did already:
1. I have tried to launch the "pimg.exe" directly - the same thing (nothing) happens.
2. Hard reset - no way ! The problem is not the kind where I would consider a hard reset. I have installed a free picture viewer for the time beeing.
3. I have the "jpg" files associated with "pimg" in Resco explorer, but it didn't make any difference.
If somebody would still come up with a new idea, I would really appreciate :? .

If the program won't start I would check that the program hasn't been overwritten. With Resco make sure that it has a tick in the "In ROM" box in Properties. If not, delete it and the ROM version will be restored.
With File Associations you have two registry keys for each filetype.
HKCR\.jpg - pointing the extension to the filetype and handler
HKCR\jpegimage - telling the OS which icon and program to use for the file.
Other entries exist too like HKCR\.jpeg, for the same file with different extension, and HKCR\jpegfile which is empty on my device.
The HKCR\jpegimage\Shell\Open\Command on mine is (Default) = pimage.exe "%1"
Is yours any different?
Resco has a built in viewer for images and other file types, which you can set as the default action when you click a file.
Hope this helps.

PReDiTor,
Thanks for the hints, I went through the points but nothing suspicious found. I have set now Resco's internal viewer as photo viewer, so I will leave the proble for now. Let's see further after the next hard reset.... :wink:

its a dll file that is screwing up..
search up the thread on saman's wm5 new menu and there is a dll switcher there..

How do you add a location to AccuWeather?

I would like to add Galway(Ireland) to AccuWeather but I am finding difficult to add the Code for Galway! Found a thread that explains it for another htc model but I can not get round doing it on the Touch 3G!
Any suggestions?
Many thanks Woodie

You may have to edit this file in \windows : HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml
0409 (english) is your language code, other languages have different codes.
Ensure that your city (and corresponding codes, available from accuweather website) is in the list.

Hi,
As this topic is here, let me ask my trouble here;
I have WM6.5 w/ Manila2D, I have lost my selected cities from weather widget in Manila.
I can not add any city, even if all city lists exists and I am able to select. But it does not display weather widget screen..
This also happened before when I have had another Rom and Softreset is not useful at all..
Anyone has such trouble?
Anyone has resolution?

Try this.. rename file \windows\HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml to HH_0199_WeatherCities.xml. (keep a copy of the original file somewhere)

Unfortunatelly, dealing (renaming, deleting, moving) with such file is impossible although while TFlo is not active..
Tried w/ Resco and extended File explorer (not seeing/showing), Total commander sees but not executes any command except copying..
Doing thru laptop with vista also sucks due to not showing windows files..

I'm not sure why.. but I have renamed mine. The file should not be protected. It's not in ROM.
Try this.. disable TF ->> use TC, properties - uncheck "system" - rename.

It is Rom file..
Not possible to uncheck any box overthere..
Not possible to handle..

Hi all
Same problem here!
Here is what I have done so far
1. Copied HH_409 bla bla file to pc.
2. Edited file with correct data from accuweather.
3. Using total comander removed the read only state from the original file in /windows directory.
4. replaced standard 409 with my version.
5. soft reset
and........ I can choose the cities from the list now but they will not update.
So now I am stuck
if any of you (azahidi ;-) have managed to crack this problem please help me get further.
If you want to try one of my cities to ensure that it is not me doing it wrong here is the line from the xml for one city
Code:
<city name="Newquay, UK" loca="EUR|UK|UK125|Newquay" land="United Kingdom"/>

I am not sure why, but I can add and update any city in the list, including many in the UK (e.g. Newbury, newport, newham, newcastle-under-lyme but unfortunately newquay is not). I'll try to add newquay in xml file and see what happens.. I'll post the result later.
btw can you try and do item #8 of first post and see.
This thread here may also be useful http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476167&highlight=weather&page=2

Tried item 8 and lost control of most of the phone took 1 hour to dig my way back out.

Cannot ? Even in http://www.accuweather.com ? Search for your city/town in "world" link
If found, the code is like this: http://www..... traveler=0&loccode=ASI|MY|MY004|LABUAN
Sorry if I'm telling the obvious.

freepadsettings.exe doesn't create reg entries automatically :-/

Hello,
whats your opinion: is it possible that this app works on a HTC Leo ?

if you cook a rom, than its possible (i think).
i will try it if i have more time.
hope for responding next 2 weeks.

that is what i am longing for! wait for your good news!

Hi Okokur,
I tried to run FreePadSettings.exe on my HD2, but couldn't find a way to make it work.
- OEM.zip is corrupted : I could not extract the entire archive (don't think it would solve my problem, but who knows ?)
- I put in the same folder FreePadSettings.exe, the .mui, and the .cpl, added tg01w.dll and CommonRegistry.dll and Utility.dll, and then I got the message : Can't find PInvoke DLL "Utility.dll"
- I placed Utility.dll in Windows folder, but I got the same result
Don't know what to do next ....
By the way, are you sure it is this exe that launch the PAD ? Its name makes me think of a config utility ...

hello,
yes, you are true. its the config-tool.
the reason is, on toshiba you need to push/pull a special-toshiba key
(known as zoombar for ie8).
i try and try and try and i could minimize to this package.
http://rapidshare.com/files/361242527/PACKAGE_TF_testflex.7z
but i have error. it askeds for utility.dll, the utility.dll was inside.
and i see many security-questions inside the dll's.
:-(

any update to this? would be sweet to have the d-pad working on my tp2 too...
thanks

Registry Registration Settings? (Resco?)

For the longest time I've tried to get the information where Resco stores the registration codes in the Registry but never been able to find it. Contacted Resco and never received an answer.
In other words I've bought their product and have the code. But I dont want to enter it everytime I install a new Rom. I want to back up the registry setting without backing up the whole registry since ill be installing it over newer roms..
I've sucessfull found and backed up the keys for thumbcal and SPB Shell and TV. (just searched in the registry for my code and backed up those keys)
But Resco cant seem to work. Does anyone have any clue where those keys would be located under?
Thank you .

I'm not sure what Resco software you're using, however, for Resco Explorer the registration information is in the file \Windows\wmtrigger.dat. I can only guess that other Resco registration information may also be in that file. I restore that file after every flash and have never had to enter my registration information in Resco Explorer after doing so.
Settings for Resco Explorer and Registry Editor are stored in the registry in several keys all within the
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Resco] branch.
Hope that helps -

Thanks.
That did the trick

after you payment is successful, resco retailer will sent a email to you, it contains registry ID and password
remember, registry ID must matches to your phone ID
you can change phone ID by edit "my contact card" in contact list

i asked the same question a while ago at the resco forum and they developers said they can't release that info so they're apps aren't easily cracked/key'd/hacked etc... after searching like a mad man all over the registry, i couldn't find it so thanks adoute for pointing out \Windows\wmtrigger.dat!

HTC HD2 to HD7

I am having difficult time turning my HD2 to Hd7
Everything is OK except for HTC Connection Setup
it says same thing: "Carrier doesn’t exist in the database
Can someone please help me with this problem and what i need to do to make my HD2 turn into HD7?
Thanks in advance

You have toinstall XMODDeployer.xap, that app will deploy the correct settings to change the phone into a HD7 to My Ringtones. Use TouchXplorer to copy those settings to the Windows-folder. Then run HTC Connection Wizard and it will pass everything and work like a charm.

thanks for the reply Silberpfeil3110
I already did the steps above
this is what i did
unlock the phone with ChevronWP7
run Tom XAP Installer as a administrator
install XBMODDeployer
install TouchXplorer
on the phone i launched XBMODDeployer which copied the CustClear.provxml to ringtone. I copied that to the windows folder using TouchXplorer
then i launched the Htc connection setup
same problem
"Carrier doesn’t exist in the database"
any idea what the problem is ?

I had the same problem...and the only way i changed the registry settings was t side load "TOUCHXPERIENCE REGISTRY EDITOR". A little tedious at first, but worked. Now, i have everything working and when i need to do a registry tweak, i don't have to us any deployer, i just go straight to the entry and edit. Hope this helps.
You can get it on the webiste...just google it.

Most of the packaging programs like 7zip can open *.xap files because they are also only archives. Make sure that you don't open that *.xap file ^^
You can open xml-documents by using notepad.

The problem is that Connection Setup doesn't have any data for some of the smaller carriers. You could just borrow someone else's sim card to activate it and switch back to your own afterwards.
