Need Help with Calculator - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi
I just got my Diamond, as ussual comes with the rubbish WM Calculator, so I thought I'd update it to the HTC skin which I also did on my Orbit 2, Only problem it doesn't work on the VGA, so I uninstalled but now my original calculator doesn't work any more?
What can I do?
Cheers
Richard

hard reset is my thought.....or you can try searching for the original calculator cab.....i'm sure it's on the forum...

Just pulled the batt out while on, assuming thats a hard restart. Still the same.
This is the error:
The file 'calc' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate , or one of its components cannot be found etc...
Couldn't see an original CAB for VGA device?

well read in the book to find out how to do a hard reset on the diamond.(i don't have one so i doon't know i'm just trying to be as helpfull as possible since this thread will probably almost be ignored) a hard reset is like a format of your phone to bring everything back to the defaults.....or you can use the search function of the forum to look for the original HTC Diamond calculator cab file......

I happen to be at work, I don't have the manual to hand, why would this be ignored anyway I thought this was the place to find friendly help! I always thought a hard reset was just pulling the battery while switched on but that does not restore default settings. Anyway I have just managed to fix it, I found a cab file called Microsoft calculator.cab and it has restored it.
Thanks anyway but no need to get funny about it!

was not trying to be funny....was just saying that this developer site sometimes ignores little threads like this....a missing calculator is not a big concern to devs....anyways i'm glad you got it working...i knew theire had to be a cab file for the calc somewhere on here.

Still, can the default WM6 calculator be skinned? Looks horrid compared to the rest of the interface

i'm wondering the same thing.. this calculator needs a new look
btw, hard reset is volume down + enter key + reset

Hi richardirv
I have exactly the same problem and would prefer not to do a hard reset unless absolutely necessary.
Is there any chance you could tell me where you found the Microsoft calculator.cab ?
Thanks in advance

My Calculator is Gone as well!!
If you (richardirv) could please post were you found that ms calculator cab it would be appreciated by many!!
I have been searching for a while to a fix for this. I too tried installing the HTC skin and did not work. When I uninstalled it the calc.exe file was gone leaving me with no calculator.
I have many custom settings and programs and would hate to do a hard reset for a calculator.
Thanks a bunch in advance!!

Hello!
What language is your device?
I had the same problem with a german device. The reason were some entries in th registry that where linked to some where in "program files" instead of "programme" as the folder is called in a german device. Corrected it manualy and everything is fine now.

HTChome favorite people problem...

I searched and only found one post in the Vogue forums which was not much help so hopefully you diligent peeps can...
I am using HP IIIs ROM w/ the latest HTChome cab. But for some reason anytime I save contacts to the favorites tab and soft reset, they are erased on boot. Anyone know how to resolve this? Thanks
anyone know?
This only happens when you install the HTC Cube.
You need to delete a registery key named "QuickDial"
Check some of duttyroy's threads. Or contact him, he knows how to fix it.
Or you could enable cube and insert the contacts through cube. After this contacts are not lost after restart.
that's weird guys b/c I have never installed the cube.....I will just do a hard reset. Thank you for your knowledge guys!
You don't necessarily have to install cube. It is probably included in your ROM especially if you are using a Duttys ROM. So a hard reset will do nothing.
I will try to find another solution for u. In the meantime edit your links through cube.
remove Quickdial from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\MASD]
hope this help.

No QuickDial under that string
I am using SJ's hyperdragon IIIs Lite. There is no cube involved. When I was installing some cabs a while ago, it might have been possible that I accidently selected a cube cab but canceled. I have no cube but I did have that biotouch registry key
Thanks to all you guys. Way too benevolent. Seriously, though, I'm in need of a hard reset. It's no biggie. It would be nice to just know what needs to be done to correct this issue but I don't wanna waste yall's time.

Replacing Video Dialer Skin

Im not a big fan of the video dialer on Dutty's Rom's. I attempted to replace it but no dice.
I would like the black dialer as shown here:
Tried installing cab, but after soft reset Dutty's red kaiser dialer still there.
Tried wiping out folders in registry HKLM/Software/HTC/PhoneCanvas and HKLM/Security/Phone/Skin and reinstalling cab and still no dice (Prolly shouldn't a done this but found these keys on the Athena form, so thought i would give it a try). Now Dutty's Kaiser dialer is gone, but with phone skin enabled or disabled shows standard dialer.
Any one replaced a video dialer skin with another video dialer skin? What am I doing wrong? Any hints?
* I have attempted several searches through the forms all turning up mostly goose eggs for swapping video dialer skins. I see no guides or wikis for this.
Poor xcuse for a BUMP!
Beuler...
Beuler...
Anyone...
Anyone...
C'mon someone out there knows where I should look for this answer... Someone has to have modded their video dialer. Should i try to ask about this in General?
I
Guess no has done this...
Too Bad! I'll do some more digging of my own on the topic. If anyone can think of anything at all, be sure to drop a line, I'll be more than happy to look in any direction that you may point me.
Thanks!
Saturday November 17 2007 update:
Note: Newer HTC models (HTC Tytn II / Kaiser and HTC Touch) have their own custom dialpads, these skins aren't suitable for them. Do not install! You might have to hard reset if you cannot remove these skins via remove in settings
I've been digging in this as well but no luck... I Bricket my device once or twice trying to solve this.
There's loads of dialer skins but most without or no working video.
The skin you found look awesome so if you get it working plz let me know.
@jamorgan2008
you can try before installing an alternative dialer following.
1. Set the key in the registry HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled to "0" to disable video dialing function.
2. SoftReset
3. Install other dialer
4. SoftReset
5. That´s it
I had same issue on my Kaiser, but after that it works as expected

Fixed Keyboard/Touch screen and more ATT Tilt

*Second post is a quick tutorial of all the steps I did*
For the past year+ I lots of problems with my tilt. Terrible keyboard response problems, like the keyboard only working 25% of the time. The touch screen being unresponsive or slow 50% of the time. I've hated my phone. Thought it was just a piece of junk. I soft reset so much I thought the reset button was going to fail.
I tried nearly every new ROM that came out, each time after being dissapointed because my problems remained, then I'd move on to the disable xt9 cab, tilt keyboard fix cab, keyboard speed up cab (which I'm still not sure if works, since I now have my initial keyboard delay set at 0 and I don't know if I see a difference), etc. Tried the touch sensitivity registry edit, installed the (I think) x1 touch sensitivity cab. But nothing seemed to change a thing.
I had realized that most of my issues were software related because sometimes things would work fine (for a couple minutes). I've tried the press the hell out of the keyboard buttons fix that was supposed to regain contact between the key, and the sensor for the keyboard, and pretty much everything out there.
Then I recently installed the HTC ROM for the Tilt, and voila, I have a new phone, works nearly flawlessly.
Since then, I have installed Manila 2d (start with update 20, install everything included, then install the latest version) youtube/opera/google maps/audio manager/pictures etc. all work perfectly, installed the Manila2D v20 N2A patch which fixed the weather tab to show my home town, M2DC and applied a new skin, Total Commander (to move the edited weathercities file), Wstask (awesome), ATT Navigator, Windows Live (great for syncing contacts), and it works perfectly. It's fast. I can use my phone now without the struggle, and am happier than I've been in a long time.
I haven't heard anyone suggesting this so I thought I'd let everyone know. This is the phone I always wanted from my Tilt. I have to assume that the minor hardware differences between versions creates a problem with non-native ROM's, and if you are having problems I recommend trying a factory ROM made for your device, you may be pleasantly surprised.
Dustin
*edit* As I'm sure most know, there are hardware issues with the keyboard for many, this will obviously not fix those issues. However, I was able to fix the massive software issues I've had which also effected the keyboard. I still have a testy Y key, but it's not a huge issue when compared to what it was like before. My phone works great.
Correct Forum?
Flashed to the HTC ROM for the AT&T Tilt, download here:

Soft reset immediately after screen alignment, and setup to avoid bloatware.
Adjusted settings for MediaNet:

Installed the following cab files (here's the files, install order, what to do, how to do it, etc. is up to you, try to search for yourselves, I'll try to answer questions posed, included iFonz, and a couple other cabs for the heck of it if you guys wanna play with em):

I've been having the same issues with my tilt as well. EXTREMELY annoying. I love the tilt, but hate that it constantly lags.
Do you have a link to the ROM from HTC?
The last ROM from HTC for the tilt gave me problems
Yes please post the link as i am also having this problem.
Thanks
Link inside!
Here y'all go. It's important to note that this is ROM build 1.62.502.0 and will change your radio to 1.27.14.09. Further info can be found HERE
HTC AT&T Tilt ROM
Different link to the Rom
Here is the link for the page HTC posted the Tilt ROM download if you would like to read first before downloading:
http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=67&cat=2&dl_id=94
Hope this helps you guys. For me it was night and day. Let me know if this helps you guys.
Also, I wonder if there are any ROM cooks out there who are interested in cooking ROM's based on the Tilt ROM. That would be sweeet!!!
Dustin
*edit* I'm not sure about the ROM tmnt.mikey posted, but the link I've posted does not change the radio to that version, I flashed and have radio version 1.65.21.18. I'm not sure what radio I was using pre-flash (oops).
does this work with kaiser as well?
because at&t does not have the front camera...
so if i flash to this rom, will it render my front camera unusable?
not that it's really that important, i'd rather have my keyboard functioning well again.
other than that, is there any complication if i run this on my kaiser?
because in the HTC page, it's said... only for at&t tilt...
Kaiser ROM
I have no way to know if this ROM will work for the Kaiser, someone would have to try it out and let us know. I can't imagine it would brick the phone, but the keyboard layout is different, and the front camera thing. However, you might look for the latest Kaiser ROM from HTC then apply all the cabs you want and see if that works for you. I installed the ATT ROM, then did a soft reset before the apps were loaded to save space and clutter, then installed just the cabs I prefer.
It's been almost a week now, and it is still working perfectly. I've installed almost 20 different cabs, it is running faster, and more stable than it ever has. I love my phone now. The difference is stunning. I haven't had any issues thus far, and I've never experienced that before. I hit a button and it works, I touch the screen it works. I'm going off about it so much because I want everyone to know this phone is not a lost cause. I'm still a little in shock how well it works. I had written it off, and thought between HTC, and Microsoft that this phone was just going to remain a glitchy pain in the rear. My phone was so difficult to use that I almost stopped texting all together. I was practically marking off each day on the calendar waiting for the remaining year of my contract to run out.

i actually followed the link from dustintm...
but the download was not for my area (i'm in singapore)
and you can't download it anyways...
you need to key in your serial number...
and it has to match the region...
so if that really fixed the keyboard problem...
congrats to those guys in the same region as dustintm...
as for why it happened, i also don't know...
i read in some other thread that it's unlikely if it's dust or the rubber...
i also think it has to do with the ROM, since some days my 'a' keys works fine...
Asian TyTN II ROM
Hey Jonathan,
Here is the link to the HTC Asia download page for the TyTN II:
http://www.htc.com/au/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=13&act=sd&cat=all
Just so everyone knows, this ROM change I am talking about does not fix hardware related issues. I still have a testy "y" key, it works most of the time, but I do have to press it harder at times.
Prior to my find, I was having massive keyboard problems, sluggishness, having to press each key multiple times, etc. I was also having similar problems with the touch screen too.
This will not fix a hardware issue (obviously?). But I've found the new factory ROM has made my phone operate almost without flaw... for the first time. Responsive, stable and consistent. I can deal with the "y", I couldn't deal the snetacnes loking lik tihs (sentances looking like this (all the time)), and all the other problems/lock ups, etc.
Dustin
Keyboard problems sound like a hardware issue. You should try to find a local cellphone store that does repairs.
There is one in L.A. that can fix this for under $50.
Keyboard Problems
I found that I was experiencing hardware (keyboard), AND software related issues (keyboard, touch screen, sluggishness, and lock-ups). After installing this ROM all software issues have disappeared. I am very certain of this. One example is that occasionally the keyboard would work almost flawlessly (with the exception of the y key) and other times it was a complete struggle, multiple keypresses to register once, delay, etc. That made it clear to me that I was having software related issues.
I imagine it could have been ROM issues, or software related conflicts, but either way, I have solved my problems. I flashed to the latest HTC ATT Tilt ROM, and the following programs/cabs:

BTW Trjons thanks for your post.
be a hero post all your cabs or links
So, it is heresy you speak! Stock rom! Yeah, I too am sick of the laggy unreliable roms. WAY too much wasted time, energy and effort. Gone back to ATT even though on TMO. How about posting your cabs or links for the lazy ones of us out here?

Also, did you get rid of the AT&T bloatware on yours as well? On a quest for the perfect ROM myself, so I will keep watching the thread for more info.
Would like to see those links as well.
If you want to leave out the ATT bloat ware, after you go through the screen align, do a reset. It will fail to run the script for the **** add ons and then you have basically a virgin rom.
Cab files
Hey lazy people ! Here's a link to all my cabs:

I'm somewhat lazy too, so you're going to have to download all of them then pick through to get the ones you want. Enjoy!

Thanks
Your're a hero! Thanks for the cabs
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHOA! Virus detected "win32/virut" after extracting file then accessing folder with "glossy black bars.exe"
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hopefully I've removed the infected file.
I didn't know glossyblackbars.exe had a virus???
Don't need it anyway, I deleted it, recompressed the cab files and re-upped to rapidshare. I edited all my posts with the new zip link.
Please let me know if it's virus free now... so sorry!
Dustin
Thanks so much, Dustin!!! I think I will be loading the AT&T 6.1 ROM again, following your fixes, and praying that my 2-PC ActiveSync problem somehow gets resolved along the way, too. (We need a "crossing fingers" smilie! HA!)
I'm just not looking forward to setting my Tilt up all over again. Must wait until I'm in the mood.

WM 6.5 | Part of taskbar missing, HELP!

Hi,
Since a while part of my taskbar is missing. Well, most of the time it is: when I close a program is is totally visible for a very shot while. (See screenshots)
I've allready installed other taskbarthemes using sdkcert, but no improvement..
Anybody got a solution??
Gr,
EdjuH82
I have seen several discussions about making the OK/Close button larger so that you can use your finger rather than the stylus. There may be some ROMS that include this feature and perhaps yours is one of them that is malfunctioning.
I would hard reset if you like your ROM. If not, flash a new one and the problem will go away.
Doug M.
i wouldn't go so far to hard reset anything right away- i would install an sdkcerts and then soft reset and then install a taskbar skin cab found on these forums and see if that fixes things
GustavTheLion's,
I allready installed an other taskbarskin, this didn't help..
The problem accured after I installed a game, which wouldn't work (so I removed it right away. Today I turned the function off that says that puts the time in your taskbar when you run a program and now the problem only accures on the 'home-screen'.
Dwmackay,
An hard reset is an option, but it's the very last one. Maybe there are other sollutions?
Thnx for your replys!
Well guys, I hard-resetted the device and the problem is solved.
But I'm still curious what the problem was, so if anyone can explain it to me.. be my guest
