[Q] Shutdown Menu Problem - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I have a problem when i go into the shutdown-menu. Firstly im not able to press any of those buttons (shutdown, planemode). Secondly, when i go out of the menu, im not able to do anything on my homescreen (scrolling, starting apps). The only thing what helps is a restart with the reset button.
How can i solve this ?

You, along with many of us here on XDA and im certain elsewhere, suffer from a tiring and old digitizer. The simple fix is to remamp your call button(or any other button) as the power button. I had the exact same symptom as you, but i remapped to the call key, and no longer experience this symptom. There was another thread where he had the same issue. Use this post to remap your keys.

change JogWheel behavior

Hello,
Just got my TyTn and got a question.
If i got a long email (about 34k just plane text) this is a lot of text.
With my tytn and the jogwheel it is possible to scroll down a page (or scroll up a page of course)
I was wondering, is there a way to make this shorter, so that the jogwheel doesnt schroll a complete page, but a half a page or maybe just 3 lines.
When i read a complete page the backight of my tytn turns dark.
Reminder: i do not want to change the settings in backlight! this is exactly the way i want it, but when i scroll more often the backlight stay on.
Please help
I hope it is possible.
Paul

Been playing around with my new TyTn also. I'm about to install all the software I had on my Wizard, when I was using my Wizard, Tweaks2k2 had an option for smooth scrolling, I'll see if it will change anything.

Make sure you turn off the volume adjustments that are assigned by default to Button #4075. After doing this my buttons function normally allowing me to call the start menu from the side button and the volume calls are eliminated.

I use the latest AEBPlus. If you use the add button function you can add the OK buttons and retain the start menu actuation via the side OK button while making those buttons actually close applications.

Under Options>Volume Adjustments make sure all entries are NOT checked.

Hmmm, strange. i can't seem to find that option under options. We are talking about options in AEBplus right? Only thing that says volume on it is "restore volume slider". Is this the one I should uncheck all items?
Thanks for helping out dude.

That's the correct name. I was coming from my memory. There are three options in there make sure none are checked.
Thanks for helping out aadadams. Still having problems though. After a while the windows button won't open start menu and neither will ok button on the side of Tytn. Too bad, I really liked the function to be able to really close programs with hardware ok button.
Not entirely related but similar, I was wondering whether it is possible to get the scroll wheel to scroll quickly through the contacts list using the 'big letter' lookup? I know of a couple of people who say the phone has randomly done this for them but they can't figure out how.

I do not have a problem with the side button. When pressed while on the today screen it launches the start menu. How are your buttons mapped? Have you assigned multiple functions to these buttons that fail over time?

Nope, only thing I've done is add button and pressed ok hardware button. Then I mapped it to close active program or whatever the term is.
It shows up as button 4075 I think.
Wierd, I did basically the same thing with that button but I remapped several others to extend their fuunctionality. I have never had that happed. My next question is what other apps are you running especially immature apps that may cause the conflict.
Hmm, not running that much else. Wisbar advance and pocketbreeze. That's about it.
I do not use Wisbar apps and sine it does make changes to native start and ok functions it could be the problem. Run without it for day or so and see what happens.
With only wisbar and no aeb+ everything has been ok, will uninstall wisbar and try only aeb instead.

Pls Help Cant Change theme on Fuze!!!

Hi pls help,
Just got an At&T Fuze......its got couple of inbuilt themes but when I apply it doesn't change......i tried all of those but it remains d same.......do i need to unlock something or some problem with my fone???
Any help is appreciated.......thanks in advance....
Get TF3D
I'm assuming you mean the TouchFlo 3D theme and not the windows theme?
You need to download and install TF3D found in this section. Then find a theme, there are plenty posted on here as well.
No by theme i mean the actual theme........taskbar....the bottom bar...menu...etc.....it just remains the same even after applying new theme.....is it some problem with my fone??
pls help
Are you clicking the "ok" in the top right after you select the theme? I just got a Fuze yesterday and no problems switching themes here...
Try what Maxxpower just said.
If it's not that then I doubt there's a problem with the handset... just the software. Try reflashing it with a rom or something?
I had that problem with my fuze too, something messed up during the initial setup and the top and bottom bars were green and never changed with any theme.. may not be the answer your looking for, but a hard reset fixed it for me.
Hard Reset:
Take off back cover, remove stylus.. find red "reset button".
Hold down Volume Down and Main Circle Button... press red reset button with stylus at same time. Release reset button keep volume down and main button pressed.
Wait for some text to come up on screen, press volume up to continue, press volume up to reboot.
Just incase OP didn't know =]

Or just go to Start>Settings>System>Clear Storage> Type 1234 and click yes
lol. Wasn't that easier? haha it's just another method. I prefer the above method when you can't access the device at all. This one is much smoother and faster since you only have to type instead of opening and clicking and holding. Just my opinion
thanks a ton guys!! i will try a hard reset and hope it works.........

HTC TOUCH HDThe device stuck in animated gif. Try to do hardreset, first become bootloaderscreen and then a message "No image file"
Please Help
What a hell of a job with these small buttons!
Thanks in advance!
this way
On a powered off phone hold down the volume down and the volume up button and power on at the same time. After a couble of secunds you will get a warning... You can now let go of the buttoms. if you want to proceed with the hard-reset you press wolume up buttom otherwise you press something else..
Rememeger you will delete all you data by hard-resseting your phone

I had some issues as well the first time I wanted to hard-reset my HD. But after several times, I got it. I laid down my HD, pressed the upper and lower volume button at the same time with my right hand, and pressed the power button at the same time with my left hand, and it will come.
Just try several times, and you'll get the same. But try to backup some part before if it's possible!
The one you've done (I guess) is the bootloader, which will appear when you press the volume down and power button at the same time.

I have a Dutch device, so I don't know exactly how it's called in the English rom. But this is what I did:
Goto 'Settings' => 'System' and then something called 'Opslag wissen' in the Dutch rom. In english it would be something like 'Delete data'.
When you do that you are asked to enter "1234" and press the YES button. After that, the default settings are restored and all data is deleted.
Now this is my issue: I had installed several programs on the memory card and they are stil there, which is good. They even work after the reset, which is also good. But I can't put them in the programs menu or programs tab anymore, which is not good.
Does anyone know how to solve this? Or do I have to get rid of all the programs and reinstall them again?
Grtz,
Thijs
Re-install the applications..
Hey.. I think the easyest is to re-install the applications... Just because you choose to install them om the memorycard, the software stills place som files in windows system files...
backup
just to be sure i always have a map on external storage with all the cab files i installed. in case of hard reset ik can always reinstall everything whereever i am.

@GreenFrog Thanks for the quick reply!
Now i know what I was doing wrong, I pressed the upper and lower volume button at the same time pressing the power button, but I'm instantly hold the powerbutton down, instead of pressing it one's!
But the mean problem for all this misery was a corrupted SD-Card (There were no more Apps installed, something had blow them away,the directory Programfiles was complet empty), the device couldn't start up Windows Mobile. When I remove the SD-card everything works fine again, except that i have to re-install all apps.This looks very strang to me, never had such an issue before!
the trick is to hold both the volume keys down and to press the power button just once. It will not work if you hold down the power button while the device is turning on.
Hope this helps
This also stumped me for a while.
The difference between going to the bootloader and doing a hard reset is that to do hard reset, you press BOTH the up and down side of the volume key whereas to go to bootloader, you press only the lower side of the volume key. In both cases, you press the power button.
Remember to do this after shutting down the device.
The approach of going into setting and do a clear storage is fine as long as the device is not frozen up yet.
Hope this makes it clearer for everyone.

Assigning Back button as OK

hi i want to assing the back button "<--" on the bottom with the OK button. i dont need the back functionality, what i want is to avoid trouble hitting OK on the top every time. someone suggested me AEbutton, that solved my problem assigning the volume button for up down navigation, but i want to assing back button to act as OK.
pl. help
Well, I've got good news. The Back button IS OK. Try it in a Settings dialog, pressing Back *will* save your changes.
You can assign actions to OK with AEBPlus.
This surprised the hell out of me - I only realized this after owning my HD for a month.
It also means that there is no PPC/HD equivalent to the Back button on smartphone devices. I had a Vox before, and was used to the Back button meaning "cancel".
JUst to add a little to that.
Is it possible in any way to disable the volume keys?
I cant stop pressing them by mistake

AE Button plus
then just remap them so they dont work as volume keys on a single press ( i use the long press to make them go up and down, but in rreality i use the slider to actually move change volume so i dont need to even map them to the volume at all)
Ehm.... what is the slider? I read about that also in TouchLockPro and I couldn't realize what it was.

[Q] softkeys, options missing

hi, i discovered kinda weird problem while using fpse, I am kinda relying on its options to quickload/quicksave and on n10, I cant bring this menu up... I though itll be "as usual" by holding recent apps button, but it just dont do anything... friend of mine told me to look for softkey mods, but 99% are just removing them/adding them to phones which have hardware buttons, could someone point me to any mod/another solution which would help me bring apps menu while there is no actual button in app for it and youre depending on hardkeys/softkeys?
solved: partly my idiocy, partly htc/samsung transition, its on back button while holding

Some custom versions of Android can also force the menu overflow key to always appear.
