Broken Screen... Need my Texts!! - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So my N4' screen just went kaput,..... the screen still turns on and I can still see the whole thing, but it won't respond to my touch.. Is there anyway I can retrieve the texts off the phone through something like ADB? or some other type of application?
PLASE HELP!!!

Start your "File Explorer", open Windows -> Start Menu -> Programs folder, find your "active" file and delete it!
Did it work?

Change all 3 Default Keyboard Slider Sounds on the HTC T-Mobile Wing

replace all 3 sounds
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a zip file to replace all 3 default sounds on your wing. Just unzip, copy and paste these into the window directory on your phone thru ActiveSync and replace the default sounds.
You can rename all three
HKLM\Software\HTC\SlidingSound......
0 = change to "Star Trek Door"
1 = change to "Whistle"
2 = change to "Transformers"
Enjoy !!!!!!
hi i tried this and its giving me an error saying make sure u have enough memory or its not overwrite protection or something like? iam not sure wat iam doin wrong can u help please
not sure
I tested these sounds on my phone. Just unzip, copy, then paste them into your windows directory on your wing. It should just ask you if you want to overwrite the ones already there.
If you are having Memory problems maybe you change your Pagepool size to 6.
Memmaid is also a really good program to free up memory or manage your memory.
try this
Try to copy and paste each sound into windows one at a time instead of all 3.

if it's an issue of write protection try using a different file explorer like TC to change the permissions of that file. Then rename it so the file names are the same and it should allow you to replace the one in the windows folder with this edited one.
I'm not sure about you guys but I can't stand the sliding sounds... this is the first thing I turn off everytime I do a reset...but hey thats just me

I concur... I use my phone too much and it would get quite irritating to hear
"teem tum.... toom teem" over and over!!
so i installed the sounds and i get the star trek sound
i looked everywhere to find out where to change or turn off the sounds
im using touch it 2.3 and i swore i fiddled with it before the update

There should be a box you uncheck in settings/sliding keyboard.
Found this new one -- made it my third one
This one is really cool. When you open your keyboard you hear a lock and load of a gun. Close it and it fires a gunshot. Its funny.
I've found the way to add the sounds instead of overwrite them. Here the registry changes:
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SlidingSound]
"ActiveSlidingSound"=dword:00000003
"SlidingSoundEffect"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SlidingSound\4]
"out"="Tr_out.wav"
"in"="Tr_in.wav"
@="Transformers"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SlidingSound\3]
"out"="Slider0_out.wav"
"in"="Slider0_in.wav"
@="Star Trek"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SlidingSound\2]
@="Xylophone"
"out"="2_out.wav"
"in"="2_in.wav"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SlidingSound\1]
@="Piano"
"out"="1_out.wav"
"in"="1_in.wav"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\SlidingSound\0]
@="Wind Chimes"
"out"="0_out.wav"
"in"="0_in.wav"
0,1 and 2 were the original sounds. I added 3 and 4...
This works on a Herald with Touch IT...
Gentlemen,
I was successful at tweaking the registry and adding a folder to use the transformer sound but when I add my own wav sound, it does not work. Any info ????
it works fine love the gun one THANKS
Still cant get it
Can someone please give me some more in depth instructions? I cant find the folder to save the sounds to. I dont know how to make it copy to the correct folder when I sync. Any help?

Are you using Windows Vista to Sync Up to your phone?
(Vista hides the windows folder on your phone)
No im using Xp with SP2. I know reading the manual would have prolly helped in all this, but for now Im just concerned with the slider sounds. So if anyone has the time and patience to give me a bit of a dumbed down short walk thru to either sync the wavs for the slider sound, or to copy the files into the phone from SD card that would be great.
Thanks for the reply and any other help I can get.

Did you download ActiveSync 4.5 from Microsoft?
http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/4/6/5467c040-a935-4987-aa30-5dcbc36a57db/setup.msi
First, you need to install Activesync to your PC, then sync up your phone to where it says connected.
I have the Wing with Touch 2.3 and I looked everywhere for the sliding keyboard setting. I looked under my settings tab but cant seem to find the setting plz help

They probably cooked it out of that ROM.
some users don't like the keyboard sounds.

So with this new activesync are there just more options for the sync? Does it open up a sounds, or slider sounds file? I also keep gettin an error msg when try to download it. It is supost to be run on my pc and not the wing correct? Isnt there an easier way to copy the modified sounds from my SD card straight to a folder? And where is the directory....I cant seem to find it.
Thanks

Also, I think I may have already had 4.5 on my pc which is where the error msg was coming from. I uninstalled and then reinstalled. Im gonna get into that fat wing user manual and try to learn more about active sync. in the mean time if there is anyway to copy it from my SD to a folder that would be a big help.
Thanks again

Intresting sms issue

Strange SMS.exe
Right i need a hand from one of you clever folks.
Basically the whole ability to view/send/edit any form of messaging has disappeared, every single link in all of my panels or apps where im usually able to enter the messaging application are dead...i mean there there but when i click them nothing happens....
even when i go in through the start menu etc i wont work...
now i know i can hard reset and start again but id rather not ....just got my setup how i like it.... so if possible need a soloution.
was wondering is there a sms.exe or a messaging cab or something that i can reload from the directory? if so where is it cos i cant find anything like tht when i look via file explorerr....i guess im hoping i can just reinstal the cab and it will all be fine.
thank you for any help.
update
right this is really freakin me out now!! i put my sim in another fone and i cant access the text messages from that either! so it must be a settin or something that i have done on my x1 thats messed it up....ive had a look in all the settings i can find for sms (of which i couldnt find many) and cant seem to fix it....someone please help i have no idea wot to do!

So maybe your SIM is broken?
Have you tried another SIM card in the xperia?
Hm...but messages aren't stored on the SIM card anymore -they are all in the phone's memory.
I would suggest trying another SIM card.
If this does not help and noone else has an answer, a hardreset would be the best way.
arrgghh
so tried another sim in fone and that dosnt work either...so whatever it is its on the fone and the sim card!
Well I had a similar issue...I would often have to restart the phone in order to get the messaging icons working. The problem was the message delivery report...i just disabled this with xperia tweak. Although it sounds as though your issue could perhaps be a little more complex.

Music Recognition Software Midomi on TP2

Very cool
http://htctouchpro2.wordpress.com/2009/08/10/midomi-for-windows-mobil/
Shame about not running on 3G and also dont hit the Menu button (you dont need to but if you do it locks up)
it works over 3G- here's the fix: http://www.fuzemobility.com/midomi-music-recognition-in-the-wild/
And you say it's better than Music ID?
Then it deserves a test
all the best
Absolutely brilliant, works great, only problem being the menu button, which is currently a "kill" button! anyone got a fix for this? or even disable to prevent pressing by mistake.
Holy Balls! It's awesome! Good find!
Brilliant app, and finding the network fix was awsome!
When I try to use this software it says Network connection failed. Does anyone know how to fix this error?
nice one, ta.
Hej guys..
if i dowload it i cant install it. I've put the info on my phone bit there were no files i could start..
Or am i missin something..?
you have to execute the .cab on your device
BennyT

yeah like i said... if i put the files on my phone i cannot execute a file..
it keeps tellin me it needs a program to start..
You obviously got the program installed and running since you know that it's only working with wifi ...
To make it work with 3G do as told in the article - change the entry in the registration database and 3G will be working (after soft reset)

Whats the problem?
If you don't like it, don't install it. I didn't buy the TP2 because I solely want to use it to write emails/spreadsheets.
I bought it because it is a kickass device with lots of power and features and a lot of "wow" factor.
If anything this is a bonus to the TP2 as it means it's a business phone WITH cool stuff too.
new to editing registries, but I can't find the HKCU folder anywhere... Where is it? This is an AWESOME program, but I wanna use it outside the house

You are looking for an app called MyMobiler. This will do what you need it to do.
Thanks and yeah I found it after research. Now, can it connect to phone automatically? Or do I have to turn it on from phone? Screen being dead and all.

Well you still have to install it but that won't really be possible if you can't go to the right directory and run the .cab. Unless it was already installed on your phone, then I think you will be able to, depends on what the settings were. Give it a try. And if you really need to access your phone you will have to buy a new LCD screen. If the touch screen doesn't work, you will need a digitizer also.
here is a list of them on ebay. pick the one you want:

Thank you for the help. Yeah I had the program installed initially but even when I plug it it, mymobiler just says unable to connect. The phone vibrates when I touch screen but doesn't seem like its accepting any input so I believe ill need a new screen.
Sent from my Evo
You can always look for an exe installer and you can install this via ActiveSync. I would tell you to reflash the roms or do a hard reset but you will get stuck at the Stylus calibration...
I think you are correct, you need a new screen...
