Need Help with Calculator

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!!
HTC Touch Pro
WM 6.1
nevermind richardirv

thanks to TheOne_ for posting it!!

Which tweak App to use ?

OK.
Been frustrated as hell with the performance of my Diamond, but I REALLY REALLY want it to behave fluidly and as HTC market to us all... I don't want to hand it back and go for an N82 (although I love the camera on this). I WANT to keep using my Diamond as I do believe in it... even after my little rant in the "is your Diamond perfect" thread ;-)
So... and I hope this question will help others too.
I need to know - If I install Diamond TF3D Config and AC 2.1 with Boinger66's mods, and the latest on the block, Diamond Teak all on the same device.
And I asking for trouble ?
Or will common settings (registry changes) to improve performance, enhance power management etc across all these brilliant applications conflict with one another ? Or will they play nice and just change the same registry settings ?
cheers.
Or... is there one that will be the best ? I am not a WM expert and all this is a tad intimidating
Are the Advised settings marked in AC 2.1 with Boinger66's ones that the dev advises, the community has advised or Microsoft advise ?
i.e Do we happily set everything that we want to change to advised and following a soft reset, enjoy Diamond bliss ???
Please... I know I could read countless pages of threads but a clear concise answer to the above would help me and many others out along the way.
cheers

They should work all together...
My app is just reading and writing to the registry and not saving the selected tweaks anywhere else, so it makes no trouble with other tweaking tools, if they do it the same way.

It works together on my original Dutch rom...
At the moment I am using the Diamond TF3D config 0.6 tool from sushilange..
Here i can fill my own tweak list.. i like to take control

@sushi... thanks for that.
@ben®nie... cool. Will add AC2.1 and B66's tweaks back to my recently hard reset Diamond.
Currently with just sushi's app... all seems to be flowing along nicely
Oh... and anyone know the answer to the 'advised' setting question ? Power management ones seem most app with the small battery we all have ;-)

Onscreen Keyboards arent working for me?

I have L26 V9 6.1 professional rom...and i am having trouble using third party on screen keyboards. Ive downloaded and installed cootek touchpal, pocketcm keyboard and htc touch qwerty and none of them work. I have installed the sipchanger app also to make the onscreen keyboard stick after a soft reset but i cant even get the keyboard to come on the screen after i instal them succesfully, I go to start > settings input and once i choose the new keyboard, usually in WM 6.0 the keyboard would show up then i would need to use sip changer to make it stick....but when im in input settings the keyboards wont even show up on the screen. I dunno if this is a rom problem and i should post this in the rom section but is their another sip application i can use to make keyboards show up? sip changer isnt working for me but when i used duttys 6.1 apr 29 rom , my keyboards worked so i duunno whats up with the v9 rom......can someone help me figure this out so i can get an on screen keyboard to work...this rom didnt come with another third party app keyboard so i desperatly need another on screen keyboard other then this really small default white one...someone plz help

SIP keyboards
Same thing happenning to me. I have tried different third party .cabs and everything seems fine with the installation, but when I go to select the diamond keyboard nothing happens. Even if I use SIPchanger. It will do nothing.....
I got to work once, but then it stopped again. Some help please.

Holy Crap. What the hell!?
Seriously guys, If you posted this in Leo's V9 Thread. You would have gotten the answer.
Plus I know for darn sure that there are multiple answers in the v9 thread on how to do it.

You know how long that thread is? how long do we have to keep reading crap just so that we can get a decent answer? Why not just save us the trouble and tell us the answer here?
Well I'll search for it since I'm not lazy... but it would have been better if someone actually responded to this thread with a real answer.

The problem with your theory, is that others may have the same issue in the future. Then, when they go the the rom thread to which the problem pertains, they can't find the answer because it is in a whole other sub-forum instead of being in the rom thread.
If you are having issues with a rom, go to that thread and post your issue. Then when a fix is found, it is in the rom thread for future users to find.
I appreciate your frustration, but it is for the betterment of the community for the problems and fixes to be posted in the rom thread to which they pertain.
Thank you for understanding.

i need help customizing !!!!!!!!!

hey guy newbie here. will like to know what i need to be able to ne need customize my today screen and also landscape. dont bash me. new at this HTC WM thing. PLEASE HELP QUICK!!!!!!!

????
Read the WIKI......Lota of info for you in there.....or do a search with any Question you have.....
Peace
Mike

The best place to start you off would be the Raphael wiki. Read up. Also visit the Raphael forum for tips and tricks/tweaks.
Happy Learning!

Ok thanks for that link but i already looked at that. not really tell me what programs to look for. Unless im over looking

I'd love to help you....but your request is really broad. Try to narrow it down a little...like applications that can perform specific tasks. The amount of customization you can do to a WM device is almost limitless. If you don't have any in mind right now...look around....check some forums out online. I'm sure you'll come across applications that would make you go...'hmmm....I'd like to have that' That's where xda devs comes in

what kind of customization are u looking for? Are u trying to get a completly new theme? Remove some tabs from the touch flo? You need to be more specific about about what you would like to customize. Like what are you exactly looking to do?

for now i would like to know how to redu a whole new theme

Get diamond tf3d config. Browse the diamond forums for themes. Install them via diamond tf3d config if it's a file that ends in .theme. Some of them will be cabs, which you just install. On my phone, I installed a .theme file, then a cab to change the clock, and then a cab to hide the top curtain... all of which I found in the diamond forums. Lot's of good information for customizing in the diamond forums. Anything else specific you want to customize, just do a search.

ok i got Diamond TF3D Config. working. But what do i do from here. It has no themes.

Noob Need Some Help!

Hi guys, I just got my HTC pure a few days ago, and I'm trying to customize it. However I'm kinda a beginner at this, so I was hoping you guys would be kind enough help me with them. I have a series of question and any help is welcome.
1. How do I rotate the Manila screen? I had the TD2 tools install and it works on some programs. I think lyriquidperfection had already given the answer for this but I cant seem to find it. And if you're kind enough, please tell me how the programs work, coz there's no instruction anywhere.. BTW, the enable manila screen in the TD2 doesn't work and I have Manila 2.1.19183217.0 which the forum said should be able to rotate.
2. I cant get Manila to work with programs like S2P or Mircosoft Word, which is unusual since there programs support landscape view , any help with that?
3. I heard there a way for you to put shortcuts into Home tab, how do you do this? And can you change the background picture of other tabs other than just the home tab and the start menu?
4. At&T sent me a text said that I have to choose a data plan or they will choose one for me, which is a bummer. They changed the regulation in September and I didnt know anything about it. They should've sent mail to all customers about this. They didn't even tell me anything when I upgraded my phone until after the Sim card was activated. Anyway, is there a way to get out of this? if not, I read in the forum there a way for you to use your phone as a modern unnotice by AT&T, is this true?
5. Is there a way for the phone to rotate in more than the 2 default directions? When I check the G-sensor, it detects all directions.
6. The last one is flash ROM, there a ROM in this forum that the guys was able to make the Manila Screen Rotate sideway, and he got the music player rotates too. But I dont really like the look of the whole display. So my question is can I install a ROM and use only parts of it functions while left the others the way it is? And Do you think Flashing ROM is a better solution than using TD2 for G-sensor rotation?
Here a link to the ROM: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=562942 (I cant post a link since I'm a new user)
Thank you in advance for all your helps!

3) Shortcuts in Manila home screen is a feature of Manila 2.5. You would have to flash to a ROM using this version. It is possible to have the same image in all tabs using one of two methods. Either with bg4alltabs or with HDWall. Search the forum to learn more.
I can't help much with your other questions as most are rotate based and i don't bother with that!

Thanks DirkGently1 for responding . I actually solved number 1, 2, and 5 which are all about rotation. I edited the registry of some programs and used G-config for the rest. Somehow it worked like a charm. For some reasons TD2 Tools didn't seem to work on my phone. For #6, it turned out I have to unlock my phone to be able to Flash ROM and I'm just happy with the way my phone is now so maybe in the future. Still #4, does anyone knows how to get out of the data plan?
