When I clicked on the Remove Programs icon, the Programs in storage memory was blank. No programs were listed. However, all the programs on the tilt work.
The other odd thing is that cant install anything now. I tried to install a cab and I received the "programs was unsucessfully installed". The last program I installed before I noticed this issue was resco. Any ideas, I dont want to try a hard reset. Thanks.
I am also having activesync issues.
No Ideas?
Is there a reg hack anyone can think of? My bigest issue is not being able to uninstall/install anything!
Please specify more on the active sync issues? You might have to do a hard reset, or else this problem will stay. And are you talking about the ROM built apps or apps you installed your self?

I have had the same problem twice already.
The first time I did a hard reset and started from scratch, the second time (this week) I just restored a backup I made with sprite backup and everything was working again
Just make sure the backup, (you do have one don't you) was made when the remove programs still showed the programs that were installed.
active sync issue
when I connect the tilt to my laptop active sync on the computer sees the tilt but I cant sync. I can explore the tilt. When they connect the computer says close to the following, "Sync cannot be completed sucessfully. Reconnect your device and try again. If the problem persists see active sync help." I click ok and a new profile is create each time.
Now for what active sync says on the tilt. It says, "To synchronize your device with a desktop computer, install the synchronization software from the Getting Started Disc included with your device on your PC.
IF you company supports syncing directly with its Exchage Server you can set up your device to sync to it.
Learn more about synchronizing with a server."
The Sync button is greyed out as is options.
O ya, I did do several sprite restores from as far back as one month, (I do a backup at least twice a week) and still the same issue.
Any ideas?

Your registry is corrupted and the solution is a hard reset and then reinstall of your add on programs.
I've seen this several times on the Wizards. I've also seen the same problem in Win 2000 and Win XP.
If my reg was currupt, couldnt a restore fix it? I have tried that to no avail.
ive had this issue before, Just delete the partnership and create a new one/ restart computer(had too for my case, maybe it will help yours).

The problem is more then likely that your backups all have the same problem in them.
The only solution I could find is to do a hard reset (clear Storage) reinstall all apps etc, make a backup and keep it in a safe place then make another backup whenever something is added or removed, just make sure that all programs show in the remove programs screen before you make the backup, otherwise a restore will not help.
Another observation I have made is that each time it's happened to me I've either dropped or banged the PDA.
Thanks all for your help. Say if I do a hard reset and then do a restore from a backup, will I have to Reinstall all the software? The reason I ask is that I bought this phone used on ebay and it came with all the software loaded. There are a lot of programs and I cant find the installation programs on the phone of sd card.

You will need to reinstall all of the software first, and then do a restore.
BUT as I have said, if the backup is the same as the PDA ie: no programs listed under uninstall it won't help, you will need to reinstall everything again.

I am having major problems installing TT3 on my new XDA 2i, it keeps coming up with an issue about not displaying correctly as it was meant for an earlier version of ppc and then wont load, it also has t versions of the gps software on it that I cant get rid of the icons from the programmes menu.. Can anyone help or tell me how they got round the problem please.
Thanks.
Please can you explain your problem in more detail. Thanks
It sync's and transfers files but they do not extract when loaded onto the XDA, all I get a pop up box (twice) that says that there may be display problems as I am using a newer os then ttn3 etc.............., Then when you look in the windows folder and select ttn3 it says no application associated with the file. The GPS programme installs, but then if you uninstall you get left with the icon for the gps prog. left in the programmes folder (I now have 2 icons in that folder). Hope that makes it clearer.
try doing a hard reset ,,but backup first with sprite ,, and see if that helps ,dont worry about that message it will always come up about not being able to display
Ok, Will try that. Is it best to load TT3 on before restoring?
no backup first incase it doesn't work ,then you can always go back to your old setup and get back any lost info
This is the second time this happened to me. The first time I remedied the matter with a hard reset.
I recently upgraded my ROM to the 2.24 version (thanks by the way). This evening I was installing a number of third party programs on my 8125 when I had one program not install. After that, I lost my activesynce connections (I was still connected but I could no longer sync and all of my contacts, emails, etc. were not showing). Also, I am unable to install (or remove) any .cab files. When I go into my settings > system > remove programs, NO programs show up there. Last night, the programs I had installed were there.
I have soft reset my device and rebooted my computer. Nothing happened. I deleted my device on both my computer and on the 8125 and resynced but nothing happened. The last time this happened I tried the install / unitstall process of Activesync and could never get it working.
I am just sick about this.
Can someone tell me why I can no longer install or remove .cab files and why my programs do not show up in the 'remove programs' screen?
Thanks
Adding to my post...
I should say that I have Activesync 4.2 beta installed. I also note that in the Settings > System > Remove Programs it shows "Total storage memory available: " In other words it shows nothing.
Having problems as of late installing certain programs
So far;
Pocket CM (all versions) don't install i can choose the location (and i have tried them all) and then i get an error that it couldn't be done
Bandswitch 2.4.1 just says install was unsuccessful as I click on the cab
Mobile justice - same thing, even after installing certificate
EDIT: another one on the list Reperion same issue as Pocket CM
EDIT #2 Looks like its a problem with either my Storage Card or Transferring to it via Activesync
I have tried moving the cabs to the device and install (instead of the storage card) same thing.
Tried after soft reset..same thing
At first i was going to just go into the individual threads for help, but since its now 3 programs, something is wrong
Trying to see if i am missing anything before doing a hard reset.
Any help would be great

i hjave the same problem!!!!!!!!!!!
Very strange - I have the same issue and it just started today. Installed software won't run and I can't install any cabs. Just says it was unsuccessful.
Anyone?
try downloading pocket mechanics, it shows all programs installed and a clean up tool and see if it shows it there, u can delete them through ur program files....see if that works lettme kno how it goes
Tried soft resetting a few times - nothing. Backed up device to my storage card using Sprite Backup and did a hard reset.
Before restoring I tried to install a cab - worked.
Restoring device now from backup....
After restoration installation of cabs - Unsuccessful. Must be sometime in the registry/system?
My question - what did we do in common to get this problem?
Today I swapped SIM cards with another AT&T phone and then put the original one back. I also ran the JumpSPL1.56KAIS on the device but reset at the tri-color screen due to a lack of time.
It is very frusterating as I dont know what to do. Any since I cant load any programs like pocket mechanics I dont know what else to do. Backups didnt help and I know the ones I had a month back showed the programs listed in the Remove Programs tool. THERE MUST BE A REG HACK THAT WILL FIX THIS! Anyone?
The last programs I installed before this happned was the Resco explorer.
Also I have a activesync issue that started about the same time which I have in another post.
I ended up hard resetting it again and am just re-installing everything.
Yes, probably topic #1000 about this. But PLEASE keep reading.
I got the famous WM6 bug/error/whatever.
Symptoms:
- Access is denied error message when trying to copy files to the phone using ActiveSync.
- Access is denied error message when trying to delete any files or copy files between folders and/or the storage card on the phone.
- You do not have permission to download that type of file in Internet Explorer when trying to download any files.
- No programs show up in Remove Programs.
- Installation Unsuccessful error messages when trying to install any applications.
- ActiveSync will fail with an error message that you should start the troubleshooter.
It might have something to do with F-Secure I installed, and tried to uninstall (which ofcourse is impossible, since no programs show up in my installed programs/delete programs list). However, tons of ppl have had the same problem before so it has probably have nothing to do with F-Secure.
Now about the famous fix (which can be found for example here).
It's not working for me. Yes I tried this fix like 10 times, exactly like its written, sometimes a bit different, not using bold but Italic etc etc. I find #12 an inconsitency for example, since shutting it down and THEN doing a soft reset doesnt make any sense to me. Anyway I did like it said, and I still have all the problems I've had before.
My question: is there anyone that has had this bug before and DID fix it, or is there anyone that knows how to fix it after all? Or, last but not least, is there someone willing to rewrite the fix in uber noobish language, step by step, that might help me fix this. I'm quite desperate and totally not looking forward to hard reset my device. Thnx in advance
Some device information:
ROM Version: 1.93.404.1 NLD
ROM Datum: 07/10/08
Radioversion: 1.00.25.05
Protocolversion: 52.29.25.12H
Dutch provider Hi
No new roms installed, flashed stuff nothing. Just tweaks and programs installed.
I'm wondering if I should leave it like it is now and be patient for replys, or move/recreate this topic somewhere more "windows mobile"-like, since it might have something to do with the OS itself, and not just my kind of mobilephone ...
Sorry to hear your problem. I'd came across the problem once and YES the fix doesn't cure all the problem.
Luckily i've backup my PDA using sprite before the problem starts. What i did: 1) Hard reset the device. It will CLEAR ALL the memory and restore to factory default.
2) Reapply my first backup. (if you have it, if not, just reinstall everything). Remember though your backup in activesync might not be sync again! - that what happen to me. Luckily i have a copy in my Hermes.
3) My PDA is back to normal!
4) Careful when you modding your PDA. Just don't get mad to those that tries to help, some might not work on your device depends on what ROM you're/they're using. If anything goes wrong, just accept the fact that its your fault and -ALWAYS- have a backup ready. Just Hard Reset.
And I'm sure you're familiar with the lack-of-a-backup-till-I-need-it thingy ... I'll go mayhem on MSWM if I'm losing my photos and texts ... Contacts I can copy or just rewrite, but damn, my photos :s Thnx for the reply tho.
If you keep it synced with your computer/outlook, there shouldn't be much of a problem.
Ever since my first WM device, I've kept a list of all changed settings, etc. A hard reset isn't really that big of a deal. You do it, reinstall a few apps you had, change some settings from the cheat sheet you keep, sync with outlook, and you're good to go.
Think of your Diamond as a slave device to your regular PC. Sure, you apply a few tweaks to it, but other than that all your data should be on your PC.
Yeah and foto's and text messages and contacts ?? All gone, hard reset not that much of a deal I find it quite frustrating =(
