I hard reset my phone a day or so ago, installed all my normal programs, but for some strange reason, I go to view a picture from my device, and it won't open.
Any suggestions?
Download HTC Album and use it. It's a lot better than the regular image viewer to begin with.
I've got that already, but thanks for the input. It's just that it's less convenient opening the HTC album and then searching for the image.

Try browsing to the application manually ( /Windows/Pictures and Video ) . Sometimes the shortcuts in the start menu gets corrupt. If it will open from there its just a matter of copy/paste into the start menu again.

Connect device to PC. Use Active Sync to move the (unopened/unextracted) CAB file to your device (storage card or if not main memory).
Then on the device use file explorer to find the CAB and tap on it to install it. Choose install to main memory for this CAB.
AND follow above posters advice to ensure the plugin is set to show on the Today Screen.

not that simple

already done that.
ditched the original link and downloaded schen's version on these very forums. so far so good!
look for schen's HTC Home at pocketemu.com. Then download HTC Home Customizer from the same Link and use it to customize your HTC Home.

2 ways
HHC can do it for you under one of its tabs
or
Go to the weather tab on HTC Home, tap on your city name and change it from the Menu option corrosponding to the right soft key.
Play around with it first and see if you can figure things out.
I downloaded the home plug and schen's cab, but the today screen only appears as the HTC home plug should appear. I tried reinstalling the cab file, but nothing changed. I can't find it under settings.
:EDIT:
I'm not even gonna bother deleting my previous post here. That was dumb of me. I thought I was to look around in the settings... Then I checked programs. You may now bash.
Screen not responding to the stylus?
I can not for the life of me get my stylus to work on my tilt. this is my first touch device but im sure its not hard. i can tap the screen and im fine but when i go to use the stylus it wont respond. could i have disabled something by accident?
Have a screen protector??? May need to adjust the sensitivity. Don't have the exact key, but I know it's in several posts. try filtering your search with the term pressure threshold.
No, it happened to me today too
Tilt w/Duttys latest.
I was reading email, when suddenly the touch screen stopped working. I could use the DPad, but no response to touch. Opened and closed the keyboard, still no response. Soft booted and it went back to normal.
I have had it happen 2 or 3 times on my tilt with dutty previous release. Rebooted and it went back to normal.
The problem is usually related to FTouchFlo, a simple soft reset cures the issue. If you don't have FTouchFlo installed, I'm not sure what could be causing it
I can also say that the issue is coming from touchflo. happened to me twice before so i've just disabled touchflo and hasn't happened since.
Me too!!!

Check out this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337979
I did everything in it, but sometimes my screen stops and freezes for a few seconds. Sometimes it gets so bad that it freezes like every 20 or 30 seconds when I am typing something using the stylus. I don't think I have touchflow because I never installed it. I just have the stock HTC rom.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

I'm being extremely dim here. I'm attempting to copy a shortcut to the start menu folder, but when I paste it in in either PC windows explorer, Resco or mobile explorer either as paste or paste shortcut it disappears into the start menu/programs folder and doesn't appear in the start menu. Any idea?

/*scratch my head*/ did you try the menus option under settings to put the shortcut of the program/item you want to appear on start menu??
Yep tried that- not showing in the list but is under programs?!

that's weird because every program i have installed on my device shows up on the list.. hmm ... i'll have to play around with device when i get home.
It's a replacement handset running 6.1. TBH it seems a bit flaky- I didn't have to set up the screen etc when I unboxed it- booted straight to the today screen. I'm going to hard reset before I load more on. I'll let you know.

hard reset is a good choice if you want the phone restored to original condition when it first came out by manfacturer (assuming no rom or spl flashes). I'll post and see what i get when i get home as far as program popping in list for start menu.
Just completed the hard reset and reinstall. All is well and works as it should inc the start menu. I was suspicious when the new handset (delivered without the battery installed) booted straight to the today screen. This time I had to set up the stylus and go through the tutorial- the only time I was glad to see it!
Thanks for your suggestions thesire.

Hi Guys
Im a total Newbie to XDA's... Just got the XDA Ignito, within minutes of reading some post on this site I followed the instructions and flashed my ROM, what a difference! o2's Rom is sh*te!!
Anyway just having a few problems that may be so simple for you guys but yet so annoying for me.
1. Contacts are displayed "Surname, Firstname" how can I change my contacts to display "Firstname, Surname" ??
2. When on the net via Opera, and go on a video site like metacafe... the videos do not display? do I need to install any plug ins? the built in youtube works fine.
3. I have installed tomtom, but when I make a phone call, then end the call tomtom appears.... Ive tested a phone call without it to my ear and this doesnt happen, I can only think that my ear is pressing start and selecting tomtom from the quick launch at the top.... anyway to stop this? without holding away from my ear
Any advice is most appreciated
Many Thanks
Adam
1 - i would like to know where that option is too, most my contacts i have manually told to display like that.
2 - Opera / all the mobile browsers i think (inc IE and safari) dont have a flash pluggin. So any web based movie sites using some flash video player wont work. Thus reason for standalone uTube app
3 - is tomtom the only app which has got launched, seems a bit odd if it's selecting only that app from the start menu. My phone's display goes into standy during phone calls, so buttons dont seem to get pressed. Also using Sensorlock too.
to 1.: When you edit an Contact (Outlook) at the 6th Position, there must be a line "Save as" - when you click on it, a Pull-Down appears, where you can choose the other appearence with swapped Surname and forename.
1 - in each contact, there is a field 'File as' where you can select whether to display last. first, or first, last. There's no option that i know of to do all of them simultaneously.
2 - Spot on about the flashplugin. Although i believe that flashlite 3 is supposed to work with FLV vidoes, but don't quote me on that....i don;t even know if it's been released for winmo yet.
3 - this should only happen if you have TomTom running in the background instead of totally shut down. when you've finished with TomTom, make sure you close it properly.
Thanks for all your responses.
In regards to the file as, i was refering to all my contacts on my sim card. Surely there is an option somewhere to change the view of contacts...??
Found out how to shut tomtom down properly, will test it shortly.
Thanks
There's a faster way to rearrange your contacts...
Here you go.
NoWorthWhile
Thanks for that, but unfortunately it didnt work... i put it in the storage, then run it from programs... selected the way i wanted them displayed, clicked change.. looks like its going to do it then nothing happens.
Any ideas?
Hi all, I used to be able to start my calendar in Month View by setting it in the Options but since i installed a cab file which is suppose to make the scroll wheel more usable, the calendar have been acting funnily. Although it starts in the month view, in less than 2 seconds, it jumps straight to agenda view. Any guide on what kind of tweaks I can do to make it 'normal' again ? Im unable to uninstall the cab file completely..
same with me. i can't launch calendar from today screen in day or month view. it starts in day view and immediately returns in the horrible agenda view.
install the cab file I posted in post #32
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=47352&page=4
Hi mucky, many thanks but it doesnt work for me. e cab file changed quite a bit of my interface appearance and my calendar doesnt even load after installing this cab. then my phone hang while restoring my backup and i had to do a hard reset. any other better ways ?

Try udKs ROM. You select month on calender options and it works.

Same with me. Calendar doesn't even start after installing cab. :-(
I think the command line to start calendar from TF3D, is hard coded into manila and cannot be changed. :-(
