It may have just got messed up - it can do that from time to time.
Go to start and lock from there. It should turn it back on after that.
Yes indeed, you won't be able to open e-mails from the sense screen as well until you do a manual lock....
Seems like a bug to me.
ahhh thanks guys i will try. i was wondering why my emails started doing that for no reason

Hey guys...
So I was right on the bandwagon when Manilla 2d (M2D) first was relased a while back. Up untill about 2-3 days ago everything was fine with my phone. I installed the Manilla 2d customizer and yesterday I went to use my phone and the camera didnt work. It loads up and I can take pictures but the actual screen is all screwy. Only PART of the camera screen for me. Does anyone or CAN anyone send me a camera installation cab so I can get the camera to work again.
I would do a hard reset but I dont want to deal with the reinstallation of everything all over again if its something as simple as reinstalling the camera Ap. Like I said I press the camera button and can take pictures I just cant see what I'm taking pictures of.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

i think you will find the best way is to hard reset the device.even if you manage to find the camera package and install it you will find that it will damage your current rom even more.
Sounds like you installed the Opal Camera, this isn't something you needed to do. You'll need to do a hard reset to clear everything up. Reinstalling the camera, which I have not yet seen, may not help with future issues. Personally, I suggest waiting until the project is fully complete before installing the 2D theme, due to various bugs.
do a soft reset.
this happens to me after i use the youtube app. i just soft reset and its fine again

A soft reset helps fix temp bugs. Typically, you want to try and prevent yourself from soft resetting, especially when your in the middle of showing friends how kick ass your phone is !

Yeah I uninsallted the youtube ap and it worked for a few minutes then back down to being screwed up. 2/3 of the camera screen shows up and I can take a picture but I cant change the lighting settings or anything like that.
I'm going to totally uninstall the manilla 2d program and see if that helps.
Uninstalled everything then reinstalled the newest release(s) for M2 to work and now everthing is fine. There must have been some conflict going on between programs.
Who knows.
Thanks though to everyone
Ok, i have an elf. of the phone variety.
No funny hats or curly shoes with bells on.
On the third panel of the HTC today screen,
the app launcher, it will no longer add anything.
I can click on the plus icon, and it will show me
a selecion of programs to add, but after clicking
"select" or "ok" it still wont show the item in
the launcher.
Anyone else had this problem?
More importantly, has anyone got a solution?
(and i have searched the forum. found nothing)
LOL....no really? I thought you actually got one of santa's little helpers
Hmmmm....never heard of that one. Did you make any changes to the phone recently? Install something, flash a new ROM? Have you tried soft resetting the phone? Also try to disable the HTC home plug in and then try to re-enable.
well, i did capture one a couple of years ago, but some rights organisation said it was politically incorrect for me to keep it, so i had to let it go.
anyway.
ive not changed the rom in any way. ive only just got it a couple of days ago.
but ill now try disabling it and enabling it again. see if it helps.
thanks for the idea
ok, nope, turning the htc home off and on again didnt work
and i didnt really keep anything and pretend it was an elf.
my previous comment didnt come out sounding sarcastic enough.
any other ideas?
If you havn't got HTC Home Customizer = get this and install on your device.
Not only can you customize the HTC Home plugin to make it prettier you can also add your app shortcuts through HHC and see if they will add that way.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319308
This is the link to HTC Home customizer XDA - This link aslo has link to official site - it is freeware and worth downloading and installing anyways.
well, thats a prety fantastic program. Ive finally been able to get rid of that weather tab that i never use.
Sadly, whenever I try to add anything to the app launcher through the htc home customizer, it throws an error and closes.
???
:edit:
Fiddle-De-Dee
Just played with it some more and got it working ok.
i was making a silly mistake with the HHC.
Thanks for your helps folks.
sounds like something got really messed up on your device, probably a registtry change or another app is causing conflict.
Did you get this device brand new?
Have you installed anything recently? If so Try uninstalling it and see if it is working properly now?
Have you been playing around with changing registry settings? If so, try changing things back to the way they were originally.
Maybe if you got the device used, someone else had made these changes.
A hard reset will reset the device back to factory settings and may solve your problem. Unfortunately, you will loose everything you have put on your device, apps, contacts, any customization. You may want to look into backing up some of your data before performing the hard reset. Once hard reset is completed, you can add your custom apps again and start customizing again. No big deal really if you have not done much with your device yet. I have had to do it twice on my device - Just time consuming since I had a lot of customizing already done and had to redo it. Now I know to back up my data before doing a hard reset.
edit: I was typing this reply before you edited your post. Glad to hear that you got it working. Enjoy
I've searched the forums all day and there doesnt seem to be an answer, basically when i turned on my HD2 today it would not load Sense on startup, it keeps trying then eventually comes up with "Unable to start HTC Sense, tap here to try again" i've tried that about 30 times and still nothing! anyone have any ideas of how to get it to start? (checked my startup folder and there isnt much there)
I had this once, after installing and uninstalling a mod which fu**ed up the system (don´t remember which one). Only a hard reset could cure, but then again, maybe a much more experienced WinMo user could have solved it better...
I had a similar problem where I would re-start my HD2 and it would get to the screen where it loads Sense then it would re-boot. This would keep going round in cicles until I removed the battery.
It turned out to be MobiReg 1.11. I had to do a hard reset and not re-install this app.
I hope this helps.

Hi, I am author of that application and I must confess that this is first news that my application can cause this. If you are in mood for debugging, I would like to verify that issue and to discover root cause of this behavior.
I ran into the same problem with my HD2 with this app. Although mobireg did install and run for a while just fine on it for a while. So I think the cause of it was another program which I had installed. It was more for an older windows mobile version and I don't think it was for sense either. I don't recall the name of it but after I installed that my HD2 started to restart over and over. And after I wiped it clean it would still restart over and over whenever I had reinstalled mobireg.
If you have CHT, try reinstalling it. Has worked for myself and others.

I second it...It worked for me..
I'm having the same problem I've checked and unchecked HTC sense, re-booted, removed battery, re-installed CHT and still nothing is working. I go from one problem to another with this phone and i'm no computer wizard but a phone shouldn't be this much hard work.
If you've tried all the possible solutions in this thread and had no luck then Im afraid its hard reset time...
Any recent installs or did it come out of nowhere? (CHT / sense mods??)
edit, just noticed your cht comment.
Try installing a different version of cht.....(older or newer depending on which one you used last)
Long shot but you never know.....
Also try logging out of HTC peep and disabling the twitter tab from "settings - personalise - sense tabs"
just in case that up to its old tricks.........
after i turn on my phone it says HTC SENSE launching and after trying many times it says unable to start htc sense , tap here to try again. And it doesnt shows the home screen, like the digital clock, the weather, the shortcuts and the buttons for contacts, mail, settings etc. what should I do with it
Same thing happens to me, after installing navigon!
Any solutions?

Well,this sounds familiar Same thing happened to me countless times after installing various things.The only solution would be a hard reset (If you don`t know the procedure do a search on the forum). Remember to back up your data! I can't comment on Navigon, never tried it.Try to uninstall and launch sense again.Do a soft reset and if it still doesn't work,try a hard reset. It`s the only solution I can think of now so... ) Good luck !
First off, do a search for "unable to launch HTC sense".
Try the possible solutions in that thread.
Try also booting without SD card.
Manually disabling / re-enabling sense.
Uninstalling CHT (if you use it)
Hard reset may be required however these things can usually be solved without one if you have the time and patience.
Hope that helps.
Uninstalling CHT finaly did the job. I was ready to hard reset my HD2. Pffff.....
Tnx for the info conantroutman.

i dont know what to do. ive rebooted the device about 5 times in the last 2 days. it will will go in to stand by mode and the screen will turn off as it should but when i try to press one of the keys the screen stays black and only the keys are lit up. sometimes if i wait about 30 seconds after i keep pushing it, the lock screen will come up but its a big pain.
the only thing i have installed on it is CHT 1.7.1 CHT editor 1.7.1.2 and Anastasia CHT theme. i had a bunch of other stuff but i didnt reload it since my last boot because i thought that may have been causing the problem.
What can i do?
which rom are you on? can you hard reset and run just stock for a few days and see what happens?
I honestly think the sleep of death is lock related imho
I believe there is already a thread on this. Try disabling the auto lock function on your device. I had the same issue and this resolved it for me.
It seems that the device won't bring up the slider bar to unlock the phone, the screen is locked out to avoid accidental key strokes, and that's why the hard keys still light up but you get no display.
You can try uninstalling CHT and see if that makes any difference, it has for some people when trying to fix this issue.
Another thing you can try is this:
Go into Settings -> All Settings -> Today, and on the "Items" tab, make sure the "Today timeout" box at the bottom is UNchecked. It's not a guaranteed solution, but it has cleared that problem for some.
Your feedback is appreciated
ok well it seemed like my texts were slowing it down a lot.. i wish there were settings to erase them automatically.. besides that everything is perfect now
Did you install ANY version (including 2.07) of the FileExplorerExt mod, or even the combine fix (0.3)?
I had nothing but problems with my phone until I uninstalled it. Even the supposed fix in 2.07 doesn't work.
After removing this application, I haven't had a phone freeze/lockup/refuse to wake up in over 2 weeks.

Yes, the issues with those extensions happen when you either (fully) close file explorer while it's pointed at the SD card, or let the phone sleep while it's open and pointed at the card. If you just hit the "up" button when you're done using it, so it's pointed at "my device" again, you shouldn't have those issues anymore.
Good work sir

So I have been running without cookies for a little while. I flashed to the new ROM and have been SOD free for about two weeks not. Not a hiccup. Dont know if it is the new ROM but I know when I uninstalled cookies it helped a lot. Im thinking maybe wednesday I will install cookies back. Maybe the new ROM fixed sense enough to allow me to re-install cookies.

Yeah, I'm anxious to hear the results when you try CHT again, especially with the new ROM.
Were you ever running the fexplorer extension(s) mentioned above? It hadn't occured to me before that that might be behind some of the lockups people experience.

I had Co0kie installed for 2 weeks (on original stock ROM) and had no SOD. Only when FileExplorerExt was installed did I have that issue. As of the new 2.13 ROM, had Co0kie installed and still no lockups. I installed the 0.3 combined FileExplorerExt fix last night and had SOD within 15 minutes. After uninstalling, been running without SOD ever since.
Unless you have a corrupt Co0kie install, I don't think that's a problem, thought nobody can totally rule it out. Seems every phone is different.

No I recently read about those fexplorers but never got around to trying them out. Seemed a little unnecessary for me. At one point after uninstalling I installed diniks icons and slider and it was still running great?! idk... I will keep you posted.
