Today items not refreshing. Anyone else??

Hi, Anyone else have the problem of the today items not refreshing on the start screen?
I mean like htc home, I change options or even untick it in today , and it still shows on the start screen until i soft reset.
Very strange.
Cheers.
Hheeelpppp !!!
Here too
I am having that problem too. Still trying to figure out what caused it. I had it before and the only way to fix it was to hard reset.
This time I paid attention and it started after i installed the newest Resco Explorer. I asked them for assistance and all I got was that since the problem wasn't inside Resco's software they can't help me. To be fair I don't know if their software caused it, all I know is that is that it started after I installed their software.
I have found that another way to get the Today screen to refresh is to change the Today screen's theme..
Hi, at least its not just me then. It's like i have HTC home, when i untick it in today screen, it still stays on my start screen. the only thing to do then is soft reset and it is off then. But its a pain when i am changing appearances etc as i have to untick,reset,change,tick,reset etc.
please help!!

TF3D causing Xperia to Hang forever

Hi guys,
as u know know the TF3D by default takes up the 1st panel.
and when i try to use the other panels..i can no longer press the button X... because whenever i do that..the entire Xperia screen goes blank and hangs up. then even the power button doesnt work and i have to remove and reinsert the battery.
what to do?
this TF3D causing major issues.. is it bugged?
Doing a soft reset is way easier...open the battery cover, pull out the pen und put it in the small hole...
Are you using TF3D as panel or on the default today panel? If not already tried, use the TF3D-Pnaleinstaller here ion the forum...
When i try to access the panels, my X1 hangs most of the time as well, using it as the today screen. Is there any fix?
ya i use it as on Today screen.
is there a fix around this?
i disabled it now anywya.
btw does Soft Reset also delete all the data?
"btw does Soft Reset also delete all the data?"
no thats the diff between soft and hard reset
which version r u guys using? I am using beta2 and I dont have any problem switching panels... only flaw I have in the tf3d is I cant add some people to the favorite list for some reason... otherwise everything is working as it should be
Same here
I wanna know if anyone found a fix for this? or at least let us know if you have this issue. This is what I have narrowed it out to.
I'm using <Touch-IT Xperience v2.1> ROM which has TF3D installed by default
The Panel interface(The screen which opens up when i click panel button) works perfect when i disable TF3D in today
Now when I activate it, am able to open the panel interface and choose any other panel.
After this, if i click on the panel button, the x1 just freezes and all i can do is soft reset
Note:- I have no other application running.
If this continues I have to choose either panels or TF3D. I love it when i can use TF3D for daily use and shift to Facebook or media panel when i need them.
I just wanna know of this indeed a bug or am i missing something big
currently 2 versions available
hi,
i too was suffering fromt he same issues and took a while to realize that the tf3d was causing it.
afaik, there are 2 different versions of tf3d (i mean by 2 diff. people) for xperia.
i beleive most of us are using the one titled 'Full manila hd cabs' (or something similar - extremely sorry for not recalling the name of the developer who's made rhe effort to provide it) - and the one experiencing the issue.
there is another version linkd on the xda wiki, will try it now - and update with names of both developers as well as results
again
actually installing TF3D as a panel solved this issue
but since we have the new manila... the panel doesnt work
so we are back to square one... by default the TF3D sit on the today's screen and after that pressing the panel button freezes the phone
And if you choose the new panel with TF3d... it says loading forever
SOmebody please help
I'm an idiot - I can't figure out where the "small hole" for the soft reset is located.
Can someone show me a picture?

hehe... I spent ages trying to figure this one out too...
here's an image I got on Google search..
to access the reset button .. you need to take off the battery cover, pull out your stylus (since that is obstructing the button) and then using the stylus 'poke' into the hole besides the battery.
I find this location - and the need to take off the battery cover - everytime you need to reset very VERY painful

Htc hd2 keeps freezing help!

alright sooo I tried changing my wallpaper...did it about 3 times till I found one i liked. then i clicked the start button and went into the start menu but the wallpaper there was the one I had before...so i did a soft reset thinking that maybe thats all it needed. Then when i turn my htc hd2 back on it takes like a minute *longer than usual* saying "loading htc sense" with the old wallpaper in the background and once its finished the new wallpaper pops up and sense is loaded. The real problem is now that the device freezes alllllll the time. the start menu still has the old wallpaper. I tried setting the wallpaper back but every time I enter the screen to select a picture it freezes! I even deleted the file and it STILL is the background. PLEASEEEEE HELP!

The problem with the wallpaper is because sense is a seperate shell that runs on top of WinMo, so you have to set it in sense, and then if you want the start menu to have it you have to set it on the WinMo side. Are you using pictures from your sd card for the wallpaper? that might be causing a slowup. if so, move it to your devices main memory. I don't have the time to really look into it right now, but when I do I'll play around with my phone and see if I can help you figure this out.
By the way, welcome to the forums.
Thank you for the welcome! I have found a lot of interesting tweaks and mods for my htc hd2 here! :] About the wallpaper issue...how do you change the wallpaper in WinMo? I think i solved the problem. I went into settings -> all settings -> today and changed the background from there then a soft restart. I dont know if that changed the home screen wallpaper also but it did change the start menu background. THANK for you help!!
I still dont understand why my hd2 keep freezing though. I have been running wallpapers off my storage card since the beginning with no problems like this what so ever. Then all of a sudden I change the wallpaper again and it starts acting all funny! lol

Cookies Home Tab? Wont let me customise.

Hello, I have a HTC HD2 on Vodafone and have just downloaded and successfully installed the latest versions of cookies home tab and its editor.
When you see the countles videos people have uploaded online of people with their htcs, with the awesome little customised, cookies home tab screen, everything works perfectly.
My home screen by default is black and pretty blank, except it has a joint weather and time widget at the top of the screen. Pressing menu, edit home layout, i assumed would be the thing to do. When i do this, a screen just like i want appears, with the clasic big clock..and the quicklinks..and i can move/add/change everything as i want. I press done and this appears to be my new home screen.
However, whenever i attempt to scroll or move anything up and down on the screen, without reacting, it will just snap back to the original black screen i spoke about with the smaller widget at the top.
This means i cannot customise anything, for example the handy expansion of quicklinks..etc, as when i do, everything will just snap back to its default.
Like i said there are hundreds of videos online about this program but none running you from installation to customisation, so i dont know what to do!
Any help would be greatly appreciated to get me started with this program as its getting on my nerves...
Thanks a lot!

[Q] SPB Shell 3D Black Screen!

I did some reading and decided to get SPB Shell 3D. I installed it and set it as default over my Helauncher. When I pressed home all I saw was a black screen and the top status bar. I tried rebooting the phone but it then took a longer time to get past the boot screen. The screen just stayed black, when i received a call the phone lit up and i was able to take the call.
So I can view:
The lockscreen
Phone Call
GO Sms
I can access things from my status bar if it pops up.
press menu and go to applications> and delete the default in spd shell.then press ur home button and select previous one
Sent from my HTC HD 2 powered by HYPERDROID
If you have a back up of the .apk, send via Gmail, install again, and this time, don't select SPB Shell (Always Use This) ... instead, select your normal shell (HTC Sense in my case), then do what namila007 says.
Same thing happened to me.. kept getting black screen, but it would give me option to select SPB or HTC Sense.. finally, like a fool, I selected SPB Always Use This.. and then I couldn't get into my phone at all.. I could view notifications.
I tried to install 1.0.1 but that didn't work. Reinstalled 1.0 on top of 1.0 and it "removed" the "always use this" *flag*, and gave me the option for SBP or HTC Sense again.. I selected HTC Sense and uninstalled SPB.. bleh.
I was trying to avoid a reset.
Good luck!
Namilla007- I cant even see the screen to even go to applications, thats the problem
Easyeee- Yeah I was in your boat, it kept giving me the option between Helauncher or Spb shell. But it gave me black screen when i selected spb shell 3d, and like an idiot i made spb shell 3d default. Ill try the email thing you said, thanks!
I was almost about to flash a new NAND ROM on my hd2. such an annoying folly i caused
Just for info. I had it work as the default on NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.5 and CMYLXGO's Stock Desire HD(2) NAND ROM [v1.1.10n].
What I did was I launch Shell3d once without making it a default. It takes a while to load the first time. Then I move around the screens a few times and hit the home two or three more times each time hitting shell3d. Then hit home one more time and set shell3d as the default.
I am no longer running the program however as it those not work my Lotus notes calender and SPB gave me a refund.
I guessing your not able to see the manage AP because Shell3d hooks into that to allow easy uninstall.
You may need to reset your phone data to fix the issue.
