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

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.

Comm Manager Font Changed!

After updating HTC Home. The Font of my Comm Manager changed.

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 voilà! 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!

Whats the error?
Im guessing you dont have .NET 3.5?

the error says ( An unexpected eroor has occured in diamond TF3D Config.exe)

And yes I have Net 3.5

why are you using ADVANCE CONFIG. to change the theme??? why arent u using MANILA CUSTOMIZER ??
if u want i can upload my copy which work gr8!!

I wasnt aware of Manilla customizer i would really appreciate it if you did post you copy
thank you

I cant change the theme with Maila customizer

Use Diamond TF3D Config for changing themes. As for .Net 3.5, have you also installed .Net Config and set 3.5 as the default?

Im not sure what you mean by deafault I installed both and when i try to start up adv config i aways get an error

How do i set 3.5 as default?

I'm not sure if this works for Advanced Config. but for the Diamond TF3D Config program the creator said if you get that error, your registry is messed up. He lists a change u can try in your registry or delete the tweaks.xml file in the directory the program was installed. Here's the link if it will help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2430410&postcount=390

This is assuming you've already installed .Net 3.5. Install .Net Configuration to internal memory (cab below). This allows you to change the CF version used for applications on your device.
Run '.Net Configuration' from your Start Menu.
Go to the 'Device Policy' tab and select version 3.5.
Selecting 'Apply' then 'OK'

installed SPB shell 3 and chaos now

I installed the SPB shell 3on my Xperia and had lots of troubles with it, like no way to goes back to Today panel, no more X functions, and stall....but....I like it...
Now, I reinstalled the Xperia original software, and, if someone could tell me....Before installing the SPB shell 3, what exactly I need to do FIRST?
what Dll or else I MUST install first...
Thanks you

if U using stok ROM RAA1 maybe
try update ROM first

download spb 3.0 from the spb site. Then look up a serial somewhere. had no problems at all

It worked, for me without any modifications... I was on the R1 ROM at that point though.

hello
try to install with the exe file instead of the cab file
the cab file sometime block the x buttons

after install spb shell 3, clean ur star up at windows, delete all. use explorer.. n soft reset. now u can choose manuali 2 spb shell menu

All of you, many thanks for yours advises, and going to study first what is my Rom number and, if I update my Room from, say 1 to 3, do I still need the number 2? sorry my Rom, but, in Hungarian a Rom, is a gipsy, BTW....
I did not knew, a CAB file instead of an EXE file installer could make a difference.....then? a golden rule would be to use an .exe file instead of a cab file?
ok, going to try it and agin, thanks.....happy am I with the XPA forum....really

Try the trial of SPB 3.0.1, not 3.0. Google to find it. This resolves some issues.

perhaps your english is not fluent like mine, but, also, you are able to communicate with another language and, THAT, is the best...What is your native tongue? mine is french, then after a small english and then a very little hungarian...

I will, but, after reading all the helpful post, I just found out my Xperia was still runing on Customization version R15A with the variant generik_uk,
Now after having made the update, I see that I have now the R2AA010, perhaps, this is also why I have or had, who knows trouble.... Do I also must update the generik UK ?
Now, if I like to try WM 6.5 do I must update thru the forum, tho the R3AA? or not? here, I am lost, and yes true cooking is ok with me but Rom and UI are not for me...better some Rhum and Coke...heahh
Now I do wonder if it would be also better to reformat my microcard? because I almost install all softwares into it.....

I flashed my X1 to nX1i ROM (found here) and it's working very well so far.
