Blank screen of writing a new text message on 818pro

Blank screen of writing a new text message on 818pro.
Is there anyone can help? There will have no problem after hard reset, it seems one of the programs causes this problem. But does anyone know the reason? Is it memory insufficient?

when I press "New" button in order to write a new SMS (text message) of my 818pro. The content of the message is just a blank screen, I can do nothing with it except closing it. This also affects on MMS and Email.
Is there anything corrupted?

This reminds me of something yes. Could you please do these things and reply with answers to my questions ?
a) How much space do you have remaining on your device (how much free ram) ?
b) Go to Start -> Settings -> Installed Software or hows it called (the place where you see what software is installed) and tell me if the list is still there. Do you see your installed programms in the list or is it empty ?

c) Can you uninstall or install new software ? Please test with some small CAB file on your device.

Hello Spatzm,
Thanks for your reply.
a) 23.85MB RAM left
b) ce-star suite v2.8 r2a
c) yes, i can uninstall and install new software.
--> this problem exists right after I sync the data and then press soft reset button. Is this the point? because whenever I press reset button, the SMS I wrote disappear even my pda has been just done a hardreset.

I dun think "Arabizer" is installed. Is it a program? or something about "Arab"?
Anyway, I can't find it from "Remove program". Tks.

I hardreset my 818pro again, but never press the soft reset button, so far ---- OK!!! Why the reset button cause such problem on serveral version of ROM?
AKU2.3.1, AKU3.2, AKU3.3

Arabizer is a program which enables your device to show arabic fonts.when i install it on official roms,there is no problem but when i install it on pdamobiz roms then i have a blank new sms window.as i said,after disbaling the arabizer it works again.hope it helps.

Probably a ROM issue then. If you recall my reply above with the few questions. I initially had in mind that you might run into the security stuff (certification messup) issue but this is not the case.

You have the answer right there. The registry is only written back periodically. After doing any changes you should not quickly follow up with a soft reset otherwise any new information will be lost. At the very least switch off and on again before doing a soft reset. This is not a ROM fault it is simply that writes to the registry are not carried out immediately.

Hello Mike,
Thanks alot for your explaination. The data cannot be written immediately, so that should not press soft reset button right after a SMS (text msg) is written. This question is answered well.
However. My main problem is why the SMS writing page became blank and never recover until a hardreset? I had this problem after sync PIM and then pressed soft reset button.

scott4, nice to meet u Do u come from HK?
I have the same problem before...
At that time , I used AKU2.? (forget XD) and ce-star too!!!
After hard reset for about a week.....the problem will appear again= =
SO i always reset -> blank -> reset -> blank -> loop....
until I upgrade my 818pro to 2.3, ...
and I don't use ce-star again....since it always hang= =
firstly i use monster chinese...but i found that the font is very ugly.....
so at last , i don't use monster chinese anymore, I only copy mingliu font from my winXP, and edit the registry to let my 818pro can read chinese....
Also , I download the Chinese input method from monster website, but without using monster XDDD
I don't know it's the problem of AKU? or ce-star? or just i'm very lucky.......
I want to upgrade to AKU3.3 too!!! many people say that it's very fast when you compare 3.3 to 2.3.........i wanna try it~>< But now....I'm afraid the SMS blank problem will appear again= =XD

it's the problem of cestar, i used to have the same problem with cestar installed, after uninstall it the problem was gone

Can't Install

Pls pls pls help
can't install anything anymore on my VArio II
can't sync with activesync either, whatsup

If you want help then something a little more detailed might help.... does it produce errors?!? what are the error messages, etc... it would be like telling your docter over the phone that you dont fell good... unless your doctor is psychic then he cant diagnose your problem without more information..

Hi Rickyjune
I don't know anything about security wallet - perhaps it's one of those things that locks up your files and applications, but without knowing about it I cannot guide you through a fix.
I assume you do not have a backup taken before you installed it? or even whether you can access them if you have? (This would be a solution perhaps if you have)
I'm not sure whether your applications are all working or disappeared or locked or what exactly. Sadly if it's in a real mess, I can only suggest a hard reset that obviously will remove everything back to the way you first got the device Would obviosly mean re-installing all your customisations and programmes you've added. It's either that or wait to see if anyone with security wallet helps out. Does security wallet have a help line or e-mail support etc.

Ok I'll do some checking but I may not get far. See if you can get in touch with them.
Mike

Hi
I'm not sure this is the right one Flexwallet without an "i":
if it's the right one I see you can contact them or use the webis forum:

Still think it might be worth asking them a question, because I read a post on their forum - under beta testers I think, saying they got an error on install but that it had in fact installed!
You're only other choice is a hard reset unless someone else has an alternative

I can attest from experience that the only solution (at least that I've found) is a hard reset and rebuild or restore from backup.
My program list frequently disappears, recently twice in one day. I'm still looking for a solution to the problem, which is how I discovered this thread. I can't find a pattern and tips that I have received (my list is under a supposed limit of 50 and all of my Today screen programs are now moved to main memory) haven't panned out.

yep hard reset was the only way
Your rite DonB, i had to hard reset and install everything
wasn't pretty, but I have sprite backup now but I've had no problems and i've installed Flexiwallett
cant understand what went wrong

How to do I return my device to normal?

I tried installing one theme (transferred files to /windows) and didn't like it then I couldn't get back to my original sprint theme and so I installed another one (cab).
How can I clear all this crap out and just go back to my original factory theme? I shouldn't have messed with this stuff in the first place!
Help would be greatly appreciated!!

hard reset will bring youre phone back to original manilla.
but you will also loose al youre contacts and other apps and tweaks.

That's fine as long as I can get outta this mess!
It won't make me reprogram my phone will it? (i mean program my phone number esn crap?)
how do i do this hard reset?

for Angelko2k8
Look at this link

1) you may tray with tf3d config, there is an item "restore theme" which worked for me. remember to disable tf3d from today first or
2) you may download original black theme and install it. remember to disable tf3d from todat first
hope this help

Reflash in original HTC firm at:
http://www.htc.com/it/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=133&cat=all

You can use TF3D config or hard reset.
hard reset: Start > Settings > System > clear storage, enter 1234 and it will hard reset your system.

Thanks, I managed to the hard reset via settings control panel.
Someone who is knowledgeable in adding themes and changing TF3D skins should really make a tutorial and have it stickied. It takes way too much time to read and then downloading countless programs that you come to find out you don't even need. It's really a mess. I'm surprised this forum doesn't already have a sticky for that, we have everything else you could ask for.

Its not that hard dude.
All members in the forum went through the testing and failure method.
I myself reseted my device at least 20 times, in the quest for the perfect jewel.
Im guessing you havent flashed ROMS??
Well if you start flashing start getting used to reseting the device very often.
Greetings.

Nah man, haven't flashed my rom yet...I don't even know how to see what rom I have. The funny thing is that I'm not some noob who doesn't know how to do stuff like this, usually I catch onto this stuff easily but with so much info and downloads on this forum it's easy to get confused.
Once I figure out everything hopefully I'll be able to make a thread for others!

How I reinstall Windows Mobile 6.1 of my HTC Diamond?

Thanks in advance

<whisper>search....</whisper>

wanna try hardreset?
RTFM!

oh my...
Do you want to take yoru device to factory condition??
Follow this easy steps..
1) Go to a stair
2) Drop it
3) buy a new one!!
im just kidding..
If you want to hard reset you can do it by pressing simultaneously the action button, the down key and then press the reset pin. Keep holding the keeps and follow the instructions.

Or try a new rom. But always make a backup of your appointments and phone numbers! They will be deleted.

hardreset or new rom
I suggest juicy 2.5

press and hold 'volume down + center button + red reset button' for hard reset

It won't go back even after removing it via Start > Settings > System > Remove Programs?
If that doesn't do it, you're going to have to do a hard reset (complete wipe of the phone). Backup everything on your phone! The only things that won't get erased are the things in the SD card.
To do the hard reset: turn off the phone, then press/hold Talk/Send, End, and Power button at the same time until a prompt comes up warning you about a factory reset. Follow the prompt to completely wipe your phone memory.
That will restore everything the way it was when it came from the factory.

I realize that an instance may occur where using the three-button hard-reset is the only option (device won't boot or blank screen), but I wonder if running 'Clear Storage' wouldn't serve the same purpose? Are there any differences in the desired results or are the two methods of resetting a Rhodium identical in this regard?

surely a hard reset is a bit harsh, can't you just install a different tab slider, there must be a stock 2.1 slider floating around somewhere, i'll see if i have one on my Harddrive, you are using stock 2.1 yeh?
One of these two should work for you try each of them as i don't know what build your phones on
To install Go into settings>today-Settings>untick Sense, then install after install retick sense and you should be back on..hope it works for you dude

Thanks very much it has worked after installing the cabs u gave me. Cheerse much appreciated

Thats great news! no need for a HR, glad i could help
I reckon the best paid app i ever got has to be SPB back-up i think its about £20 but well worth it, it doesn't just back-up your PIM(txts, numbers,etc) it backs up everything, i can completely wipe my device and reinstall everything just as it was using this, ive tried there other products but not been that impressed but this i cant live without. Then you can try stuff out without fear of not being able to uninstall!!!
