My Qtek 9100 with the latest english generic ROM was working fine for months. This morning, I removed the SIM and put it back in. Since then, it won't activesync, I can't drag n drop files to it through Explorer, and when I try to download a CAB file via IE, I now get this error message:
"This device is restricted from downloading this file type."
Any ideas? I don't understand what happened to it! It's like it moved to a very strict secure mode all by itself. It doesn't make any sense!
It seems that my security policies are all whacked up. The device doesn't even see the installed applications in the "Software uninstaller manager" app anymore. I tried rebooting and soft-resetting, no good.
ok guys, in order to fix my problem, I NEED one of you to send me ALL the keys and data info from this registry folder:
HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\
Please export that registry for me as a text file and attach it here (or copy/paste it), so I can retype it manually on my Qtek 9100 phone (I can't import anything on my PDA atm as I can't download anything to it, it won't let me).
If none of you do this small favor to me, I am screwed. I would need to hard reset and lose everything (I can't back up anything).
Here Goes...
Ok, I am running the latest "T-mobile custom" ROM, ROM version 2.24.10.1 WWE. I should have no policies enabled... I have typed out all of the keys and values under this in notepad in the format name-value. all values should be DWORD. Hope this helps....

Edit: My phone is a t-mobile MDa, don't think that should matter...
Thank you very much, much appreciated.

Edit:
Okay I found that my security policies on my MDA did NOT match totally with the one that was posted here. Little adjustments had to be made in the value of the d-words as well as 3 dwords had to be added.
I also found ADDITIONAL D-Words:

I have not checked if changing these have fixed my issue or not so lets find out I will post back with the result. Should I try removing the additional ones found on my MDA?
Merely changing the security Policies as listed in the .txt did not fix the problem
I have this problem too, I can't even edit the registry so I can't even try to put the policies back again. By the looks of things that won't work anyway.
Anyone got a solution that doesn't involve wiping the phone? Not that I know how to do that anyway. I have an XDA Orbit from O2.
Thanks,
Sapan
Same problem here
I have the same problem (XDA Orbit 2)
Worked fine for the first few days - was able to download CABs etc. Then it just stopped. I've read elsewhere about root certificates. Could this be the problem?
this device is restricted from downloading this file type
I have had this problem on my HTC touch with windows mobile 6.
This microsoft bug can make you loose a lot of work, time and data.
Are the Microsoft programmers drinking while they work?
Here is the solution I found!

Restricted Download !!!!! Hum
Hello all. I also have a Qtek 9100 for more than 2 years.
Honestly i never had that problem. And i already flashed undreads of ROMs and software to it.
One thing is that i always have Backup Software for any eventuality. Things can always go wrong.
Tips
First - Try to use Resco Registery Editor,its a good Software to make any changes "Delete/Rename/Copy/Add etc,etc.
Second - Look for Its Right,the TNT Master. It will be dificult to find him as he is getting is Engineer Degree. You can also ask Octaivoi,he is a Wizard Master 2.
Third - Keep an exautive search in XDA Devs and eventualy you all will find the answere.
Fourth - Get a Backup Software,get back all the software that cant be recovered. "Eugenia software can always be recovered". And FLASH a new ROM. There are many,many Beautiful and advanced Wizard ROMs arround XDA Dev.
Hope that any of these tips can help
SOLVED!!! ThankS!!!

first had this problem with the empty "remove programs" list 6 months ago, glad to see this whacked-out solution that works!!
Conclusion: Microsoft Windows Mobile messed up the security settings, so let Microsoft Word Mobile put it back automatically, voila!
And ofcourse, I've read about this "fix" soo many times at so many places, and it works for everyone but me >.< I tried all the different ways theres to it, nothing worked. One more thing, shutting it off and THEN pressing soft reset doesn't make sense. Anyway I tried, and it didnt fix. Still got the file deletion/changing restriction. Can't sync, can't get online, download files nothing ... If only Microsoft cared to fix this. Anyone any idea? Dutch phone, Hi provider, rom version: 1.93.404.1 NLD
A Real Fix
Has anyone on this board found A REAL FIX to this problem?
Because I just got my tilt 6 months ago was doing good and now cannot download, cannot stream, cannot play cellular videos, radio.
I have tried the office word solution. That did not work for me!
Is there a Real Solution?
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I'm sorry it didn't work on your device. I had the same problem, no sync, no file copy/rename on the device, no cab install, no programs in "add/remove programs" on my Mio A702 thing. The MS Word solution worked smoothely and now I have everything as it should be. So I can confirm the "word thing" actually works . Don't know why it won't do the trick in your case
I have played around with different versions of a backup program, which after expiring shows a permanent line in my today screen saying "trial period expired". I tried everything: deinstalling the programm, searching the registry, etc. Nothing helped. (ok, I am not really a developer, but not a complete lefty either... )
Please, can anybody help me, how I can get rid of this ugly notification ?
Thanks a million....
Really nobody any idea ?????
Alright, got it finally fixed
I downloaded the programm MemMaid (free trialware) and run a cleanup of my PPC. That helped and removed the bothering notification. ..and the system is faster now, too...
So, whenever I get an mms message from anyone, it shows weird characters in the name field, and will never download the message. When I try and send a message, it says " your message of *whatever*K exceeds the limit of 1k.
Does everyone have this problem?
I switched from my Treo 700wx to the 6800 and really like it, cept this little issue has me scratching my head. Gotta be something obvious, but Im not getting it...

Ugh, great. Anyone else?
So, I did a hard reset, tested before and after restoring my data, and still had the same problem. Guess Ill be trading it for a new one...
I got this too actually and I was wondering if this happened to anyone else as well. Have you installed any .cab files? When I first got the phone it worked fine, then I installed Touchflo, the cube, HTC Home, and the Audio Manager. Some time after that I had that MMS issue.
I did a master reset which seemed to fix it, and I've just reinstalled everything except for the cube. Also, did you do the registry hack to disable the sent message notification? I did that the first time as well as the second time, I'm on my 3rd clean attempt and I haven't done that hack yet.
I hope someone has an answer for this.
I actually had the same problem and finally narrowed it down (through a series of hard resets and individual .cab installs) to the HTC audio manager i had installed. I noticed today in the forums there was a new version (Although supposedly unchanged) and it works fine, i've been relaxing to Chevelle while sending pictures. Found it toward the end of the HTC Original Cab Files thread.
Hey guys,
Right now my Leo is unable to launch HTC sense after I did a soft-reset after modifying the registry "Change - CacheSize to 4096" gotten from the Leo Hints & Tips thread as well as uninstalling Nimbuzz.
Also I also created a shortcut for Task Manager to put into the start menu and added it to the Manilla shortcut at the main page.
A couple of soft-resets still doesn't solve it, and sometimes it will say tap here to start HTC Sense but tapping doesn't do anything. Able to open the dialing menu but takes quite awhile.
Pressing the contacts menu gives the error message "The file "contacts" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted cert, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file.
Any ideas?
Got the same problem.
Duttys HD Holy Grail
I tried to reinstall the rom but I can't connect with usb.
did you try that?
same problem here.
rom is 1.48 from stock.
also had the unable to launch sense error, couldnt find a way to solve it so i had to hard reset (AGAIN!!)
having to link 90 contacts with facebook manually sucks!
Does anyone have been able to solve this problem? I faced it today, I was doing some tweaks to my HD2, did some soft resets but then sudenlly it stops working, Sense freezes and has been unable to launch it, sometimes I can access to start menu but I can't load anthing, every link I tried to open tells me that the file cannot be opened either it's not signed or one of its components cannot be found. Nothing but the phone can be opened.
My rom is 1.48 stock.
Is the only solution for this a hard reset?

I faced similar problem before if I added the tweak of FATFS=4096. I did "hard reset" and then reinstalled all stuffs. I reinstalled all programs and readded the tweaks except FATFS one. The phone resumes normal.
It seems to me that the tweak of FATFS may not work on HD2.
Yes, actually I managed to remove that tweak without hard reset it, reverted it to FATFS=0 and everything came back to normal, my HD2 is now like it was before.
We MUST warn every HD2 owner to not apply this tweak.
I've cautioned this particular tweak on the main thread before.
changing the FATFS would hanged the HD2 (ROM: 1.48 Asia Region) and you'll need to hard reset to revert to the default settings.
Ohhh I didn't see that...
Thanks calyon!

HOw you do that?!
First I disabled HTC Sense from Home, then I move to the top of the start menu the registry editor (in my case it's SKTools Registry Explorer), then I turned it off and on several times and every time I tried to run the registry editor, when I was unable to run it I turned it off and on again, until I was able to run the registry editor, then navigated to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS and changed back the FATFS to 0.
I don't know how many times I've had to turn it on and off, but I thinks it's better than do a hard reset, specially if you don't have a backup or your data.

(considering you have a reg editor already installed of course)

Hello,
I just changed the FATFS registry value to 4096 based on the tweaks hint & tips and now my HD2 hangs and couldn't launch the HTC Sense app. Reading the responses above, it seems that it's possible to disable HTC Sense from Today setting in this kind of condition. However no matter how I tried to click on the "Setting" icon on the Start Menu screen, I only got the error window saying that the program is missing and we need to restore or reinstall... I couldn't connect the device to my laptop thru activesync to remove the registry since the activesync app (the switcher between storage device & activesync window) failed to load as well...
Could you please share how did you manage to go to the Today setting window to disable the HTC Sense? I couldn't see any other options since no other shortcuts are available, nor I can run any app from the start menu Is there a way to load HD2 standard WinMo OS in safe mode only...?
I'm really desperate on this situation and as much as possible I don't wanna hard reset my HD2 since I haven't done any backup yet...
Please help... Thank you very much in advance!
cheers
Im getting the unable to launch htc sense message too, even after a hard reset the problem re-occurs. can anyone advise me what to do??
Sorry, should have mentioned this above, I have not changed the registry setting of fatfs to anything other than 0, so this is not whats causing this problem for me. I have tried using a reg editor ro confirm the setting is 0 still no luck.
before the problem occurs i get an error reporting message saying theres been a problem with manila.exe
Any help pleeeease....

The same happened to mine 2 hours ago. Didnt make any changes to the device or installed any software etc Tried soft resets but no joy
Im considering a hard reset unless someone has a fix please
Mine has done exactly the same thing!! was working fine earlier on the way home from work, went to check it about 6pm and it had locked saying a problem with Manilla.exe had occurred... couldn't get it to do anything so took out the battery and ever since HTC sense wont load..
Everything seems fine, al programs work, phone is ok etc just sense wont load, was just about to do a hard reset after backing up data and removing card when i read this post so stopped...
Has anyone else had this?....
Ok so i just bought my new HD2 Just arrived last week, And Yah its freezing like most are, I have heard numerous fixes to this I guess flashing Roms or installing apps. I dont know if this thread is in the right category, but can someone help me fix the phone so it doesnt freeze everyday when i use texts and run smoother overall? I dont know how to flash roms or tweak any of these replies can someone help me please? I tried Custom window home tabs app but it got rid of the home screen so i took it out.. please someone help me .... i have yahoo, aim and msn messenger email or just reply on here ? thanks guys
try HR-hard reset.
1.turn your phone off
2.press and hold volume up&down buttons same time and turn your phone on
it will reset and restore it to the factory settings
This should help
I was in the same position 4 months ago... it's a steep learning curve!
In no particular order:
1. Get your phone and PC hooked up with activesync.
2. Learn how '.cab' files work - you basically just transfer them to your phone (I use activesync) and run them to install various things.
3. Get Resco Registry - this is a registry explorer which I find very intuitive and useful for changing registry values.
4. Have a look around this site, notably the tweaks threads, and see what you like.
5. When you are comfortable with the handset, look into upgrading your ROM. I started on Vodafone 1.43 ROM, but have since upgraded to Vodafone 1.66 ROM. It is very easy to upgrade to official ROMs (at least it was for Vodafone) - I image the manufacturers will give you a step-by-step guide.
6. Get Cookie's Home Tab!
Can you tell what ROM/Radio/Manila version you are currently on?
(Go to settings/about phone/software information)

I don't know where you got the idea that most phones are freezing, because if that was the issue this phone would not be nearly as popular as it is.
* If you got the phone from your provider go to them.
* Try a hard reset, make no changes (tweaks, software installs) and see if the problem is gone. If so then something you did is causing the problem.
* Find a stable ROM in the development forum and learn to flash, it's very easy.
