Hi, I've got Himalaya with ToFClock's WM6, but I forgot my password it's a 5digit number. Is there way to bypass or crack it somehow? I can't hard reset it cause there's some very important data for me
Thanks
Lukas
Sorry for my bad english..
i think none, hard reset is the only option, had this problem once and there was the absence of replies, so i guess there is no solution to this. there is a password hint though, if you used it.
Well, I'm not sure this is the right way to do it, but cleaning the registry hive helped me alot, and it does not erase data. Just press the camera and the record buttons, reset, and hold them until it show you boot options. Using the same buttons, you should be able to select "yes" or "no" for each setting. Just choose "Clean Registry Hive" "Yes", and make sure the two others are set to "no" (especially "format storage" ). Then just press "enter". You device should start, with an empty windows registry, that means empty settings too. You will then have to configure your phone, but your contacts and messages and data will still be there.
@Ukii hope you learned that making backups is important?
@paulpax thanks for the invitation to your site but I'm not yet impressed, success.

Hi guys, I am having some little problems with my Xda2i as following.
1. I use button lock to stop using the camera button (as I always accidentally touch it then camera starts, many time I open camera without notice for long time till my battery almost gone!!) Every time I soft reset, it always turn to defalut mode.
2. Also the same happen with "today". I show some items such as Worldmate. When soft reset, it disappears (though I ticked to show it always)
3. Favorites network also the same, ticked it then changed after reset.
Could anybody please help me?.
Many many thanks in advance..
do what i have done removed the camera from my start up prgrams and allocated the button to none that way it can't activate
as for the others i'm not to sure ,i'm sure some1 else will be able to help
Sounds like somehow the registry has become read only. Have a look in the startup folder and see if there any programs in there that shouldn't be running. Also has this started after some program has been installed?
Hi Pug, checked my startup and found below program lists
-camera_detect
-checkautorun
-clear_notify
-IA_CID_start
-PHM Traylaunch
-PhotocontactPro
-Pocketnavy
-poutlook
-RunBT
-spb GPRS monitor
-STK
It seems like you doubt, it happens after program installation.
Any more advice?
Many many thanks
I don't doubt you at all, just trying to help you solve this.
PHM hasn't got a registry restore feature has it? If it has try disabling it. I don't use it so I don't know.
Don't know what that Pocket Navy is so can't comment on that.
If you delete Camera_Detect you can assign the camera button to something else if you want and the button assignment will survive a soft reset.
Sorry for my aweful english, Pug.
This problem wa before PHM installed, it should be ok (anyway I am not knowledgable to know if it has registry or not. I am too new hands)
Pocketnavy is "CloseAll" I like it more because it has window to see running programs and can select to close which one. THe most important is it free.
I will try to fix it as you recommend. Very appreciated your time to help.
Thanks again
Can someone tell me how to "clear" the recently used apps when you hit the start menu? I find it cluttering and would like to clear it if not eliminate it altogether. Any ideas? Thanks!
sometimes help soft reset, but not everytime..
there is a software.. called.. "clearmenu", or "clearitem".. or just "clear" which is attached to many cooked rom, that is to be installed to your Windows/Startup folder.. which will clear everything in your most recent used list on every soft reset. You can clear it without soft reset, in case you are wondering. and soft reset will not do the job if you dont have the software.
i do not want to spam this thread and discuss it with you, but do not agree with

interesting.. but can I check with you the OS that you are using? Or, better still, you just go into your "\Windows\Start up\" to check if there are anything there, that starts with a 'clear'?
Anyway, since you said "sometimes" soft reset works, I would assume that it is not a repeatable process. If that's the case, probably that the 'sometimes' is the case where the regsitry got messed up and the 'recent used list' gone, and hence coincidently it worked as you wanted to.
Anyway, it is quite a new discovery, but just check with me the `start up` menu (better still, list everything there, can't be too much stuff there), to see if there are any working ones there.
ok, what i want to say is that clearing with apps you mentioned is not only one solution and as you correctly typed, it is done only "sometimes" and i was never trying find out when this happened (or why). now correct?
Help
Ok, guys, there has to be a better way to clean out the recently used apps menu. Anyone???
there is a registry hack... anyone????
Use MortScript and create a text file called cleanup.mscr and place the following in there:
Code:
ErrorLevel off
RegDeleteKey HKCU,Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskSwitch,1,1
Place this file in \Windows\StartUp and it will clean up the Recent Menu Items in the Start Menu at every reboot.
big thanks!
do you happen to know the reg location of "recent programs" listed in "start"?
Delete the string entries in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskSwitch then soft-reset. That'll get rid of the recently used app list on the Start Menu.
I have been using the attached file since I had my Wizard and it works great on my Kaiser too! Just put the "startclean.exe" in your "\windows\startup" folder and it will remove the most recently used apps from the menu after each soft reset.
Someone posted this file a long time ago and I can no longer find the thread.
Use this program !!

soft reset is OPTIONAL !!
Maybe I am overlooking something... but, is there a way to permanently prevent recently used applications from showing up in the Start menu?
Thanks!
well hi, im new here, i got an xda diamond touch, and my problem is that touchflow 3d doesnt start, i get always the windows mobile GUI, how can i start touchflo 3d ?
Sorry to ask the obvious, but you have enabled TF3D, haven´t you?
Start>Settings>Today>Plug-Ins>check TF3D is ticked (rough translation from German ROM).....
thanks for the quick respond, well when i enter today settings there is no touchflow 3d in the plugins only the windows stuff
Now that´s strange.....what ROM are you using? Standard HTC or some provider branded ROM? Thsoe ROMs usually contain the TF3D files - they are installed when you first boot up the device. It´s possible to supress that installation by doing a soft reset quickly after the initial display calibration screen....maybe that´s what happened?
If you haven´t done too much tweaking/installing you might try the old hard reset (you´ll loose all your settings/programs etc., that you have already installed). If you don´t want to do that, maybe someone else has got a better idea how to revive your TF3D.....
ok i have done a softreset yet, but didnt helped, now will try with a hardreset hmmm

yeah i have a O2 branded rom, how can i do a softreset ?

Have you had a look at the manual yet???
Soft reset: either press the red button in the stylus hole with the stylus, or long press the power key to shut down the device and then restart it - same effect.
Hard reset (reset back to how it was when you received the device): Push and hold "Volume Down" Key + "Enter" Key, push the reset button in the stylus hole while keeping the above buttons pressed, release the reset button and answer the onscreen questions.
When the device boots up after the hard reset you should be taken to the display calibration screen. After that the device will show you a quick countdown before installing additional apps (TF3D, phone skin, Opera, etc., depending on the ROM you are using). When installation is finished (do NOT interrupt it!), the Diamond will automatically soft reset. After that you really should have your TF3D installed and working.....
ok thanks but what should i do, restore manufacturer default or restore manufacturer default and format movinand?

The "format" option also formats your internal storage (your device´s hard disk, so to speak), so it´s really up to you......by formatting the internal storage you will of course loose all your files on that media (movies, pictures, whatever you´ve already put there) and have to copy it over again.....
wow seems its working, thank u so much michi really THANK U
You are welcome! Glad, I could help!

Click Start/Settings then select the Personal Tab and click Today. Click the Items Tab at the bottom then click on the box to check Touchflo3D then click OK. You may have to scroll down a bit in the items list to find touchflo3d but it should be there.
Hey, i'd like to restore my default settings without hard reseting, i dont wanna redo all my contacts and they're pictures and such, and certain things i'd like to keep, just basicly that advanced config program made my phone a little stupid, and i want it back to normal... ya..
Advanced config does have the option to "Restore all settings" altough i've never used that function myself, and i'm not sure if it will reset only the ones that you have changed since opening the program.
alternativley you could back-up your contacts, appointment, and basically everything except the registries (which are your problem) and then do a hard reset.
Personally i would recommend "Resco Backup" (google it, it will be the first post. when in that page select the drop down "compatibility" and choose windows) for doing... backups. you can download a trial of it, which is all you need in your case (I think it's a set amount of restores and you only need 1)
Hope this helps, and sorry if that was incredibly hard to follow
Hello,
Each time i want to connect to my wifi with my G Note, i must enter the key. As it is a long key, it's boring and not useful. I haven't found anything on the Internet or in the forum. Do someone knows the tip or an app to memorize this key? Thanks in advance.
should remeber it, sounds like something might be corrupt on the file that saves this info
Thanks. In that case, which file is it and is it possible to replace it?
backup your files and hard reset back to factory settings and see if it does it then, it might be someapp you have also installed
Thanks Richy, I finally found what was wrong.... it was me! To connect, I clicked on the ID of my wifi lan in the list, and to disconnet i did the same. I received then a dialog box asking if I want to "forget it" or "cancel". (not sure for the translation by forget it, my android is not in English). Now i know that the "forget it" was about the key. And I discovered that to connect or disconnect it's better to scroll down the notification bar...
