Ok, running it for one day
- After battery exchange (i have 2 of them), the password (simple PIN) i couldnt enter the device. The correct code just wasnt working. Made hard reset + cleaned up registry and storage and it was ok.
- Sometimes the radio just dont wake up. Maybe it is just problem with my BA as sometimes after the battery was taken out and colored stripes appear the radio and *next* version number are showing none (anyone knows why this happens?)
MioMap works perfectly, pairing the device with holux bluetooth gps works great.
anybody know to fix the error of window media player in this ROM?
It's very important for me?I can use other media's soft but....please help me!

I do not recall the exact reason this happens, but it is a known issue that happens after the battery is removed/replaced. The only workaround is to soft reset the device after this appears.

First off ... have the "R NONE / G NONE" appear after changing the SIM and/or battery is relatively common. My phone does the same thing.
This is due to the GSM radio taking longer to 'cold boot' than the bootloader is giving it time for. Simply let it get a few seconds into the boot (before it starts loading the OS & redraws the screen). Then, hit the 'reset' hole once ... and everything will boot fine from then on.

Flightmodus
Hi,
I have a problem with the Flightmodus. After turned off Phone in Commanager, the phone is off for about 10min. Then the phone turns automaticly on. The same when I do a softreset. Has anyone a solution?
Christian
i don't have some problem with flightmode.Everything is very well!
Ok... another problem... sometimes (cant figure out what triggers that) my phone is not "online" on gsm network.
Everyhing looks like it is working ok, but it cant be called from outside and when i try to call out, it immidiatly disconnects. Then i have to reset it, after that it becomes accessible again (and i can make calls too...).
Highly annoying, i hoped WM6 will fix this but the same **** happens...
root
Hi, thats interesting. It may be caused by some software? Can you "recall" the problem with with clean ROM?

Yes. WM2005 helmi and WM2006 helmi. It just happend. And i am not using additional software for now, well... miomap, but it is not loaded in mem. It looks to me like radio hangs.
I auto-soft reset my Touch at 2 am.
When the title screen for WM comes up that music wakes me up...
How do I disable the WM6 Startup Sound?
Thanks!
I found the culprit = PhoneOn.wav.
I tried deleting the Key for the .wav in HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation
but did not work.
I also tried to delete PhoneOn.wav with Total Commander but its protected from deletion in some way....aaaaargh!
Please help
I would like to no how to. I do the same thing.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation\Enabled
Set it to 0 for off, 1 for on.

Are the registry edits you making actually getting written? Are you powering off the device after making the edits or just soft resetting?
Verify that the changes are made after booting by reviewing the entries again.

Slim,
I rebooted and the entry is getting written. I then soft reset and that darn music is still playing -- are you on a Touch (Vogue)??
thanks
This worked for me
This is what I just did, seems to work fine.
1) Use Total Commander to search for the registry key which contains sound_on.
or browse to
\HKCU\ControlPanel\PhoneExtendFunction\CDMA\FlightModeOnOff\Sound_on
2) Change the content of that key from "SoundOn.wav" to "silence.wav"
3) Done.
I now get a nice and quiet soft reset. I'm using the HTC Touch / Vogue.
Leon.
Sorry dude, I am using a Tilt. I pulled the reg keys from the ROM kitchen I use to build my ROM; however, I HATE the stupid startup animation and sound, so I never cook it in to my builds.
The calls for your startup animation must be somewhere else.
Try ibloo's solution...I will look around a bit and see if I can find out why those reg edits I suggested don't work for you.

This is HTC related man! Hacking and developing. Not for i200!
FOR HTC PURE,
Here is how to replace the annoying AT&T startup noise with any sound file of your own choice:
Edit the registry at following location:
[HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation]
Change StartupWav to any other wav files.
Remember..
When you are making changes to the registry...
-exit the registry editor
-give it a good 10 seconds or so, then hit the power button (to blank the screen). This allows the registry settings to bake/get applied.
-Then, do a soft reset.
Else.. if you do it too quick, the changes may not apply/stick.

Hi Chemist
Found this one but what I really want is NO sound at all. How do I achieve that? Can I just remove the reference to the existing .WAV file or do I have to replace it with a .WAV that is empty, ie, no sound? If that is the case do you know where I can get hold of one or how I could make one?
Thanks in advance.

Whenever I get a next text message, I noticed that the messages have a time stamp way way off from the current time. How can that be if the time of the phone is right?
Have you tried this fix?
1) Goto HKLM/SOFTWARE/OEM/PhoneSetting
2) Add DWORD Value 'TrustTimeZoneField'
3) Set value = 0
4) Soft Reset
I had a similar issue where all the Delivery Reports from OrangeUK (sent from "System Administrator") came up before all the other messages regardless of when they were received.
Maybe something for me to try.
Can't find it
Where is that file at? Or it a registry?
I looked on the explorer on the HD but so many folders I haven't found it. Can you elaborate more?

hi stzd8,
it's the registry
HKLM is short hand for Hkey local machine
How do I get to the registry?
I apologize for asking these type of 'questions' but how do I get to the registry?
I can only see files. Do you access the registry from the connected PC or on the phone itself. So this is the right way to fix the timestamp?
thanks
Edited the registry 'trustedtimezone' didn't work
The registry thing didn't work, any other ideas?
the tweak WORKED for me.
Thanks alot!
I'm having this same problem running duttys 6.5 r8 and the reg edit did not work. Is there any other solution?

Did you change correct registry key? Did you soft reset afterwards?
EDIT
This fix may not work on different rom version, i.e. wm6.1 & wm6.5 as well as different manila versions. Try asking question in relevant rom thread and you may get a quicker response to your query
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.

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....

Has anyone else had this?....
Hi Guys,
Need help on this. I flash my device every now and then and sometimes on 1st boot the device updates the dat and time to what it actually is. but sometimes it doesnt.
i use this reg but it doesnt work anymore:
Code:
;SET TIME FROM CELL TOWER
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"NITZEnable"=dword:1
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\PhoneSetting]
"ShowNITZPage"=dword:1
i do not know what package i include or remove which causes this to happen.
can someone kindly help me out in fixing this.. i want my device to get the correct dat and time on 1st boot.
MOD EDIT: i merged two threads of yours that you started for the same problem.
This is what works for me (I don't even remember what the first key is; it's probably not important-the nitz one is the one that matters):
Code:
;*** Phone startup settings ***
;=================================
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\UMTS]
"OpMode"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"NITZEnable"=dword:00000001
You need to have your SIM in during boot-up for it to update the time. I then run a mortscript during second bootup that changes nitzenable to 0, so active sync doesn't run all the time.
Code:
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL","NITZEnable",0)

am not sure if i have set up the my location to find my correct location on 1st boot. it only shows "my location" text.
And the reg u have mentioned, does it updates using gprs or by cell network towers?

to be honest i dont really know
does my location work for you or not?
on my phone my location works over all connections
so when i flash my rom i get pass the oobe(here it doesnt set time and date)
after oobe i get to enter my pincode and that takes me to the sense homescreenw ith the clock
then i get connectionsetup automaticly
when connectionsetup is finished it makes a connection to download the weather for my location and it also gives me date and time and timezone
i think it uses gprs as if i dont do the connectionsetup it doesnt update the time
but it could be the weather data contains those info when its requested
hope you have something usefull about this info

well... i found out that this is truely network depended.... my ROM usually set time and date... but occasionally when i flash a new rom of mine it doesn't set.. so i thought, [email protected]#*^~!!! NO!! So, what i did was a hard reset to see if this is true... and the very next time it does set time and date!!! So it has nothing to do with oobe or time zone auto fix.... at least not to me...​
