CalliGrapher App

I installed the CalliGrapher 7.0 in my Diamond. After a required soft reset... the phone just freezes in the PIN Check loader. If I press the Home tab it directs me there but nothing is accessible. It's just frozen and nothing works... just like a screenshot of your home tab. How do I uninstall this app without having to do a hard reset... can I somehow access the Add/Remove Panel from my computer?
Edit: I checked again and found out that the touch UI is no longer working. I played around with the buttons and it seems that I can somehow controll the phone via buttons but I can't get the Start Menu to open so that I can reach the Settings Pannel.
To make it short: How do I access the Add/Remove Pannel using buttons only? ( no touch )
Edit2: Eventually, I managed to uninstall the CalliGrapher app using Pocket Mechanic and using only buttons but it didn`t solve anything... I still have a non responding touch UI and I can't come up with anything that would fix it... other than a hard reset. Any suggestions for a non responsive Touch UI? It's kinda frustrating to work a "Touch" Diamond using buttons.

Maybe in safemode lots off phones are set so that if you reboot in a certain time 2 or 3 times it will automatic ask you or you want to boot in safemode.
Good luck

I had no luck with the safe mode... rebooted 5 times and nothing happened, no safe mode option. There has to be a way to get me into that Add/Remove Pannel using buttons only...

Did you try the safemode way for the second third and so on time before boot was complete, I mean you have to softreset before boot complete again.
Hope this helps

I tried and it didn`t work... I managed to get into the file explorer and I`m trying to find the "Settings" shortcut from the Start Menu... Do you know where it is located? I would use the search option but I can't type in letters and such... I started looking in the win files but it is kinda taking me too long. If it is a Start Menu shortcut then it must be somewhere within the Windows folder, right?
Edit: I found the "Settings" folder but when I open it, nothing... Tapped to "Show All Files" but no result. The Add/Remove Pannel is here but I just can't see it! How do I make it show?? Can I find it elsewhere?
The Icons in the "Programs" folder seem to appear. I pretty sure the "Settings" icons are system icons...

Tab bar is gone!

I just applied the hack to change backgrounds in tabs other than the home screen and my tab bar disappeared. I can still scroll through the tabs using gestures, but it's rather annoying. I tried switching to the original manila files, but it didn't bring it back. I don't wanna do a hard reset, I have my phone set up just right now... (well, apart from the tab bar being missing)...
Help?

When you've applied the hack did you turn of TF3D before applying the hack?
I did. I didn't do a soft reboot, though. Was that required? I read some people did that too.
After a few hours of experimenting, I went into TF3D config, appearance tab and hit Restore Default. This fixed it. I'll just wait for the proper way of changing the tab background.
Admin lock, please?

Advanced config broke tabs

Hello,
I installed Advanced Config after installing .Net 3.5
I ran it with the default values thinking that people who wrote it are more experienced then me, and clicked done
Advanced Config asked for soft reset and I let it
Then something weird happened
Whenever my Touch Pro is in landscape mode the tabs, not the ones on the main menu, but the ones like on the bottom of the screen when you choose settings do not have any text unless they are selected
Also, if I have to enter some text, in for example a browser, the text does not appear. It is entered but I cannot its transparent.
Anyone have any idea what is happening?
BTW: I am running the default ROM, did not do any flashing
Cleartype
check the advanced config menu and you'll find additonal settings.
One of them should mention cleartype in landscape.
Turn that off and your text will appear again -it's a known bug.
Thought it was it
Unchecked ClearType > Soft reset
Still the same
EDIT: I don't know what I did after that but now it just appeared
Thanks

[Q] Need help from true Android expert !!

Hi,
I have a really strange problem. Yesterday I was playing with a game on my Galaxy S.
Suddenly the game started to lag and refuse input. The home key and the power button did not work.
So I took out the battery and restarted. I've done this before many times without problems.
But this time, after the reboot, I am missing 3 icons of the GUI: Phone, Contacts and Message.
I have only "Application" left, in the lower part of the screen.
I do not want to do an hard reset right now, I'm in vacation, I have many useful apps and don't
want to lose them right now.
I wish to kindly ask if some expert can tell me how to get my icons back !
Thank you !
Sergio
PS: my rom is a stock Samsung 2.3.4 and I have root access.
EDIT 1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've found this advice:
From the home screen, press Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All
Search for TwLauncher and clear the data stored in there.
but.... I cannot find TWlauncher in my Applications. Even changing language from Italian to english. Maybe it was on Froyo, and now on Gingerbread it has another name ??
EDIT 2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
After changing language, the name of some system application also change. But this seems a slow process. After 5 minutes from language change, I have finally found TWlauncher in my application list and following the advice i got my icons back.

When you open your Apps Drawer, are the Phone, Contacts and Messaging Apps still there?
If so, just press and hold the icon, then drop them back on your homescreen.

If you mean the quick launch bar at the bottom of the homescreen, do this:
Application -> *left menu button* -> edit -> drag&drop the apps you'd link to have there -> done!
Funny, I Was quite sure that the 3 icons were both in quick launch bar AND app drawer. So when I've found that solution I've seen that putting icons in quick launch removes them from app drawer. So I've tried the other solution but I found the same result.
Can you confirm that this icons normally stay in quick launch OR app drawer, and not in both ?
Thanks
Yep. When you drag an App to the quick launch bar, it isn't shown in app drawer anymore.
