Have you installed any SlovoEd dictionary? If yes... remove it because it causes problem to the fonts.

I had the same issue after starting Kaisertweak ... worked the second time after my next hard-reset

Hard reset :O

SPB Shell always changes the font on comm manager and kaisertweak on my kaiser. looked hard but could not find a solution on how to get it back. let me know if you find anything. tnx.

Hard Reset
Called the helpdesk and they didn't know as wel. So I made a hard reset. Now it works again.

Had the same problem when i installed a bible reader called e-sword. Found a solution:
In the Windows/Schriftarten (german) or Windows/fonts (should be the folder in WWE) there are normally no files in there. After installing the app there were three files in. I deleted the 3 files in the Windows/Fonts folder, closed the CommManager once (REAL close, don't forget) and started it again and voilĂ ! Everything back to normal. No Hardrest needed

This happened to me the other day, after installing SPB Pocket Plus 4. It also managed to kill Tom Tom as well as screw with my fonts. I reinstalled TomTom though, and everything was OK again.

Same problem here.
I only see it in KaiserTweak, and SBSH Clock on the time console.

Well my /Fonts folder was empty. So I had nothing to delete. The font change was in Comm manager + KaiserTweak.

Same thing over here
I am sure it is SPB Shell / SPB Tools 4 in my case. They both have a today plug-in that screws the font in comm manager and kaisertweak.

Here's an easy fix if that happens, open up the fonts folder on your computer in the windows directory and copy the font called verdana in to the fonts folder in the windows directory on your phone, soft reset and after that you should be good again.

As I Already Said. I HAD NOTHING FROM SPB INSTALLED!

Tried copying the Veranda font as suggested ... but no go.
Same problem
Here is what KaiserTweak looks like ... see attached.
Any other suggestions would be most appreciated ... I only see this issue in a couple pieces of software. KaiserTweak, SBSH Clock ...

Same thing after installing WeatherPanel.
I experienced this after installing WeatherPanel. Went into \Program Files\Marsware\WeatherPanel\Themes\Default\
and deleted or renamed all *.ttf files. After a reboot everything went back to normal.
Hope this helps...

Damn that's very messedup. My font was cool and readable. Yours is fu up and not readable. I only think a Hard-reset would do the trick. Cause also installing other comm managers won't help you.

Also have the Comm Manager Font problem
I have the same problem. I installed a foreign language calendar, which put a font it needed into windows/font folder. Messed up Comm Mananger. The moment I removed the font, all was well.
Problem is that I need to use the foreign language calendar, which depends on the font!
Anyone know of a registry tweak to fix Comm Manager or otherwise allow the two to co-exist.
I don't think Comm Manager is using Verdana, so that doesn't seem to be the answer (although I haven't tried it yet).
Help from all the wise gurus out there would be appreciated.

That was exactly the problem. I deleted the two TTF files and soft reset.
Thanks for the help!

removing programs from wizard

Guys,
I'm not able to remove any programs via activesync from my wizard.
I can see the programs listed in activesync but I can't remove any of the installed programs; it's driving me crazy!
Please help!
Cheers,
Arne
Highlight a selected program and click remove- job done!
Alternatively uninstall programs from your PPC

That is exactly the problem; how do I remove a program from my PPC?
Because via Activesync doesn't work.....
The program I like to remove is minimo (mozilla for PPC's)
Thanks!
Have the same problem, Windows can not delete programfiles. When i install an update of a program, the setup failed. If i delete files manualy i can install the update. Had the same problem with original rom.

Try....
Start > Settings > System > Remove Programs.
This should do what you are after.
my dear friend thats the problem....by doing any of the above i cannot uninstall any programmes ...it say cant remove programmes but do u delet it from your list of removable progrrames...funny
Same here. Minimo would not uninstall
went to remove prog. it said it did but all it did was remove it from the remove programs list.
Hard reset here we go. Pocket mechanic was the same for me.
It's ok when you exactly know where the program is installed - you should simply delete its files. But how can I upgrade to .NET CF 2.0?
Installer can't remove previous version and I can't delete files manually cause I don't know what files to delete :-(
I've had the same problem trying to remove minimo and the Atomic Cannons Demo. :? So far these are the only items I have tried to uninstall. I just deleted the folders and shortcuts, but I'd rather figure out what's causing the problem!
Running the QTek test ROM (WWE) on a US Tmo MDA.
I also have that. however most of the time it works for me to soft-reset and then remove. for some reason that works (for me)
I would recommend a soft reset just prior to removing software from a WM5 PPC. WM5 only minimises most programs instead of closing them when you click the X so the application stays open therefore files are still in use which prevents a successful removal.
Even if the progam has been closed by Start>Settings>System>Memory>Running Programs or a task manager like in SPB Pocket Plus there is a chance that there are still associated files locked open unless a soft reset is done before uninstall. Windows Applications on the desktop will normally prompt for a restart after uninstall if files were in use however it looks like the majority of Windows Mobile apps (or Windows itself) dont have the same functionality (some Mobile apps do prompt for restart but not very many).
Also, apps with today screen plugins should be disabled, before a soft reset then uninstall the app as WM seems to lock the files open when active on today screen as well.
I havent had the uninstall error once since i have done a soft reset before uninstalling any software, hopefully others will have the same success. I know this wont apply to every situation but so far so good for me. :wink:
Cheers
Chris
Puckster is right.Run your task manager to see all runing programs and close them before trying to uninstall or simply soft reset prior to uninstall.It works without a flaw.

Orange Today plugin (Icons on Left Hand Side)

Does anyone know if the Orange M700 Today plugin is available as a CAB anywhere or something similar? After upgrding to WM6 my other half is fit to kill me as she really liked it. I tried tempting her with SPB Shell but got one of those icy stares
Maybe you should have a look in the extended ROM, the installation might be here...

Thanks SS, it's a good idea but unfortunately the ExtROM doesn't contain much of interest.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1213228&postcount=11
The UK M700 ext rom is pretty useless actually. it only contains 4 cabs
MP_MMS3.5_OrangeUK_Trinity_060811.CAB - setup MMS settings ONLY (doesnt include gprs and wap stuff)
MP_CVSDcpl_20060920.cab - adds the Voice Speed Dial control panel (standard in HTCs rom)
PP_Fix_ShowTodayTheme.cab - Changes the background
PT_WA_Abaxia.CAB - Turns on the Orange Plugin
Everything else is including in the rom itself, the orange sounds, today plugin, colour scheme, icons, programs etc so installing the ext rom wont get these back.

I know someone is trying to dump the Orange ROM but haven't seen one posted yet. Perhaps I should be thinking of an alternative? Any ideas?
You might care to try this,it's from the Hermes but works quite well on the Trinity.
I just extract it from my device, but might be localized in French...
This cab seems to be better than just my files and registry export
Many thanks. It installs fine and does the job. Not as good looking as the M700 version but beggars cant be choosers
I've got the files somewhere! They reside in the Application Data folder and are part of the main ROM installation, not extended ROM.
I'll try and find where I put them and repost
Here an archive with registry information and the files.
All the files goes to \Application Data\DIL_APP
Note : as I said earlier this is from a FRE ROM...
As promised, here is an English version.
The DIL_APP folder must go under Application Data, so copy it there first, then copy the orange.reg file to the device, and tap on it in File Explorer to install it.
The Orange.tsk file goes in My Device/Windows and is the main Today Theme file selectable from Settings/Today.
The orange.bmp file can only be installed as part of a ROM manipulation, but is here for completeness!
Superb! Thanks again.
I have the feeling that this today screen slow down the device... just a feeling tho ...

When I copy the orange.reg file and click on it, i get told that i should open the application associated with it and run it from there.
Could anyone help please?

I've installed resco explorer which does the job...
I don't know if an other free application can do it.

Hi
I had the same issue and first of all think this is a language compatibility problem (...what is your??)!however, did you installed any other CommManager too??
Try to uninstall it (also others if you did!), soft-reset, install only this one again (but be sure the CommManager.exe app is really closed!!)!!If doens't work:
1)go in the registry and check these keys (default value): [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager]
->"EmptyMenuBar -> 0"
->"TextColor -> 0"
2)go in the \Windows folder and look for the "CommManager.exe.0409.mui" file (...i'm assuming you haven't an english device/os), cut it and paste wherever you want.Soft-reset and look what happen!If still nothing change the language code (..0409.. -> it is for english, more here) in that file to your default one and overwrite the file in \Windows folder!!Maybe now you get the text, but in english! ...better than nothing!
I have this issue with the 6 button on/off CommManager (i can use it only in English), but using this, like the HTC one (more Beam and 3G buttons, but with 9 (default) and not 10 buttons) i have no language problem, try this one you too!!!
Hope to help you!!
Ciao
Thanx works great now.

problem came back...this only happens after i reflash my device, i'm using WWE ATT rom now as compared to dutty's 6.1 wwe, and now my 10 button comm manager is doing the same thing. Heres a screen of what it's showing. (chat and icontact should only be viewable from today screen.)

...So, if you are using a WWE (english) Rom, your isn't a language problem!!
If you necessarily want this CommManager try to ask in the thread where got it (...I didn't well understand if this is the default one coming in that rom!), or try this other one (also 10 buttons, but different -> look the picture!, and try to install over it, if that is the default)!
...is that the default?? (add more info!)
If yes, first of all ask for help in the rom thread (maybe it's a rom bug, and other people have the same problem)!
If no, try what i said above!
Let me know...
Found Problem!
This only happened when I created a shortcut to commanager from windows folder and placed into startmenu/programs, after deleting shortcut all is well. I was trying to re-map the PTT button to work w/ commanager, the only way to I saw to do this was to copy original commanager to the folder that contained a list for re-mapping options (settings/buttons/program buttons) so I guess i'm **** out of luck on a remap to commanager, if you know anything let me know, thanks for your help.

Comm Manager hangs (turning off wifi)

When turning off wifi through Comm Manager, it hangs sometimes (not often), device stuck @ Comm Manager with the Windows hourglass rotating, device does not respond to any hard buttons. Have to soft reset.
Anyone experienced similar problem?
same problem here with the same rom..
Hi,
probably there are some missing files (I already had this problem).
check \windows for these files in the attachment (from gullum)... if no present, copy them to windows folder, and soft reset.
This solve my problem with comm manager.

Customizing WkTask Launcher

Hi,
I just got my "new" used diamond and flashed it the way I wanted it, than copied all the stuff I had on my Prophet before.
I installed the latest ver. of Wktask, which i think is really great by the way
After doing that, I tried to get all the "old" apps which i just copied from the SD-card of the Prophet to the internal Storage of the Diamond, to appear in the launcher of WkTask.
That's where the Problem starts: I can choose to add Programs to the launcher via
Add >> Browse >> Files...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And at that stage the Software shows me a List of Applications that are on my Diamond. But there are only some Apps listed, others aren't. That's because they are in too many sub-folders (they are in
"\Program Files\app name\*.exe"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
). The ones that are in
"\Program Files\*.exe"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
are displayed correctly.
As WkTask can also work with *.lnk Files instead of *.exe files, I tried to make a Shortcut Folder and added Shortcuts via the PC (because that's some 50 Apps or so and it would take a while to to it via the Diamond) - but they did'nt work ( saying that they weren't made on a WM - Device and therfore wouldn't work)...
Now I am looking for a way to get my apps into that launcher - without having to move them into a different Folder.
Ideas, anyone?
Help would be appreciated.
