TMO software removing ?? - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

I use the latest TMO 4.01.00 ROM and it works just fine for me. I managed to remove all TMO related stuff except this TMO icon on the system tray and the phone application tag which shows "T-Mobile Phone".
I went through all possible locations in the registery with no luck. It's not that serious, but since I 'm not a TMO user I don't want to see it on my screen all the time :?
Any ideas ???

you may already know that but ... it might help
Dear Biso,
I upgraded my device to the same rom you are using, thanks to you.
I removed some of the programs but not all. Actually I did not remove them I just made them not show on today screen.
Go to start, settings, today, then choose items tab, uncheck the tmobile and tmobile lite radio buttons and you will get rid of some of the installed programs.
Others on the bottom, to the right side of the new menu, I could not find a way to make them disappear.
I know this may be something quite basic to you, and you may have already done it, I just wanted to help as much as I can, sometimes simple things can be overlooked by great minds.

i think the program u need to remove is "battmon" battery monitor or something like dat...make sure its gone from the startup folder

XDA 2 Help needed. PLEASE PLEASE-----PLEASE

Hi guys. Been away for a while and now actually bought an xda 2. I have a few problems and hopefully someone can help.
My xda came with rom 1.72.181 with blackberry. Not being bothered about blackberry I downloaded (after a full backup) and installed 1.72.187. I didn't realise that a full restore from my backup would put the software back to 1.72.181, so had to hard reset and reinstall everything again. Both are backed up now so I can swap as and when I feel like it between 181 and 187. Both have a full setup of all my software, but I thought a restore would only put the software back, not the os and rom also, (like with my xda1). Anyone know how to reinstall software without overwriting the rom software version?
Next problem. What is the latest rom available on here (links please if known), and will updating it mean yet another full reinstall of all software.
Also, I have an occasional (too often though) problem where the touch screen stops working and the only way to get it back is to reboot. Anyone know what might be causing this. I can use the buttons and turn it on and off, but the touchscreen does nothing until I reboot. It happens with both roms, but I don't think its hardware related as the soft reset makes everything fine again.
I have removed just about everything from startup including ia caller id and all flashman stuff. I'm not even using it as a phone much because I mainly wanted it as a pda, but I have a payg sim in it for cross network calls (saves on my o2 bill). So mostly, the phone is turned off.
Any help you clever people can give would be much appreciated, (no suggestions involving hammers please). Oh yes, its about 3 weeks old as of this post date so not worn out yet. Lastly, there's no passwords set or any security setting that could be causing it as everything is on default.
Please help a desperate man.
TIA

Your touch screen should work out of the box. If it's not working out of the box, then you may have a hardware conflict issue.
I don't know what do you use for backup, but a full restore usually restores the registry and filesystem.
For a different version ROM, the usual advice is to install your software from scratch again.
If you are handy with the registry, what you can do is:
(a) export the registry of your own ROM, cut & paste the portion that contains the registry settings for your installed software, usually under HKLM\SOFTWARE\...
(b) use your ActiveSync to reinstall the software again in your new ROM
(c) import the HKLM\SOFTWARE\.. registry that you have saved earlier.
If you are handy with OSP WinCAB Mgr, you can create a CAB file for this and makes your restoration easlier.
Have you fitted a scree protector to the phone, this can sometimes cause problems with the touch screen if the protector is too close to or tucked under the edge of the cover, this can be intermittent also.
Re: Help Please
Thanks for the interest.
I have done a full reinstall with both rom versions, so that problem is gone. Just wondered if there was any way to put the software back after a rom upgrade without a full reinstall of everything.
As for the screen problem. Like I said, I don't think it's hardware related as it s all fine after a soft reset. Hardware would usually mean that it still won't work after rebooting. It's like whatever software controlling the touch feature throws a wobbler and locks me out, but the buttons all work as normal when it happens. I'll list the software thats installed and if you're aware of any known conflicts, please tell me in a reply.
Calligrapher, Phatpad, Launcher (today plugin), Tascal regedit, Frequency tuner, SPB Fullscreen keyboard, Pocket Mechanic (1.49), and Tomtom 3.
Any ideas to help this very confused man.
More help please.
I have removed calligrapher and it seems to have stopped locking up. Problem now is what do I do about it.
Anyone know how to cure this. The program is no good if it has problems with 2003, (and I have tried both drivers, default and calligrapher) without success. Now I'm stuck.
Any suggestions.
A very frustrated man.
Calligrapher 7.4, For you're information
I have removed calligrapher 7.4 and installed version 7.2. Guess what, no freezes. I informed phatware support of this and the response was what else do I have installed. They don't seem to accept that the latest version is the cause of the problem. It must be something else. Probably a today plugin????.
I then installed version 7.3. No lockups. Put 7.4 back in, back to square 1 with the locking up. It seems that anything before 7.4 is ok. I have told phatware support of this, but they still don't accept that 7.4 is the problem, instead putting the blame on anything else but version 7.4.
OK, here's my question. Am I losing it, or would it be safe to assume that (seeing as the others work) calligrapher 7.4 has a problem. A simple deduction watson, given the overwhelming evidence. Remember that I also have an xda1 and its the same story on that too.
Sorry phatware, but I'm gonna stay with my other stuff and look at the alternative's to calligrapher until I can try another (later) version that works with my machines.
One sale lost I think. Anyone else having similar problems.

[Q] Worldclock and alarm settings not working

I updated my HD2 to ROM 3.14 and I put back my (SPB) backup which seemed to be working fine but I noticed I can not tick for the world clock and alarm settings in the main screen. Weather and agenda can be ticked but on the lock and alarm settings nothing is happening. Anyone got a clue ?

I suspect you did a full backup and restored your programs, yes? If you did that, you would be writing old registry values to a new registry that was created when you flashed the new ROM. I have heard that this can cause quite a few problems, so I have not tried it myself.
If you did not do a full backup, then I am not quite sure where your problem could be coming from.
I have the same problem
I did restore a back up with PPCPimBackup, but i don't believe this will even touch the registry, anybody know different??
or which registry key would apply to fix this.
Many Thanks

It all depends upon the type of backup you chose. Is not one of the options of SPB Backup to backup and restore the registry? Also, if you restored programs, SPB had to have written values to the registry and also perhaps overwritten some files needed in the new ROM. (Have you ever tried to run a program on your computer that has not been installed?)
Check out this link for a related discussion on this matter.
Of course, the ultimate test is to reflash your phone, and try out the functions to see if they work before you use PCB Backup. If the functions work properly, then you have isolated the culprit!
Anyway, I hope you two can find a solution to your common problem. If you do, please let us know the solution. Thanks.
Hi Thanks for advise,
Do a hard set and the time and alarm tabs are now working.
so started reinstalled the apps i wanted, decided it might (Ha Ha) be an idea to test the phone are each one was installed?? don't laugh.
anyway found the problem was caused by Vovichek_Jamrecords 16 TT UPDATED.
uninstalled it and the tabs worked again.
i think the is a moral here somewhere
Many thanks

Wow, glad you found your way out of that mess. My head is all messed up because of a case of bronchitis. I should have suggested a hard reset, instead of reflashing.
Anyway, it is nice that you are back among the happy owners.
I didn't update cause I got my phone (thk god for insurance!) with 3.14 ROM. I did the usual home screen tweaks and installed a few of the standard apps (not Vovichek_Jamrecords). Now my world clock won't open. I actually don't know if it opened before I did the tweaks. Anyway, I don't want to do a hard reset, as I just put some time in setting up everything. What can I do? Is there a particular registry entry to check? Anything else?
Thx a lot in advance!

[Q] How to know if I have completely gotten rid of an app?

Hey. Just got into the world of smartphones with a Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100P), running Samsung's stock ICS (XXLPH). After a fairly smooth rooting of the phone, I did something stupid - I tried to use CWM to install this mod - an NFC enabler. Stupid, because the mod wasn't designed for ICS.
I was fortunate enough to have the enabler 'only' freeze the phone every 5 seconds instead of bricking it. Then I went in through the adb shell and deleted the appropriate apk.
My question is - is the apk the whole of the app? It looks like it, certainly - the phone works like before, no problem. I'm just worried about leaving 'garbage' around it.
I don't expect everyone here to be an expert on this particular mod - but in general, if I am manually uninstalling an app, do I need to worry about anything besides the apk?
If so, where else should I look (again, generally, where do apps tend to change or dump things)? I'd ask the developer, but it seems rude to privately message him, and I can't exactly post in the relevant thread.
No you should be ok. Nothing more needs to be done. Some apps also install data on the sd card which show up in 'My files'. It doesn't affect the phone in any way but if you find anything just delete it. I have mine sort by date so changes show at the top of the list.

Stuck in the Setup-Wizard on a stock device...

Hello,
Even though I found a lot of similiar problems and possible solutions for them,
none seemed to be suitable for my case.
My Phone:
Motorola Moto G2 with Android(either 4.4.4 or 6.0 sorry i dont know)
with SD-Card as internal storage
no root and with the stock bootloader locked
I will begin to describe my problem:
After accidentally tapping on a android app (the android head as icon - probably the setup wizard -) on my normally functioning phone, I got thrown into the setup sequence of the android setup-wizard, which is
unfortunately bugged and keeps crashing and restarting(-setup wizard has stopped-) no matter what. Any other action like using the home button(which disappeared) or access the dropdown menu is not possible and restarting or rebooting the phone wont solve the problem. The phone always starts in this setup-wizard.
So there are multiple Solutions to be found, but each of them either requires to have a rooted device or unlocked Bootloader or if not, factory reset the phone in order to install the above mentioned.
The thing is that I kinda gave up in getting my phone to work again since the only thing I seriously dont want to lose is the data, which im not able to extract anymore because I cant setup a ADB without access to settings or unlocked bootloader. And I am a big big dummy because I never did any backup on this device.
What really bugs me is that the phone still seems to function just fine(for example it still makes noises when I (probably) receive a message ) but its impossible to leave that damn setup-wizard.
I apologize for any dumb stuff or typos I just wrote, which are probably the result of a lot of exhaustion and despair.
I hope anyone can suggest a way to get to my data or even solve the problem.
Thanks in advance!

UNLESS asked to do so, PLEASE don't PM me regarding support. Sent using The ClaRetoX Forum App on my SM-G900V device.
OK, fixed it thank god
I will write down my solution in case that anyone faces the same problem and isnt
able to use advanced root/bootloader methods.
My Hero was a little "glitch" in the wizard, where you could partially leave it by
establishing a new network and write done something random to mark it and then
press share. afterwards you can try different applications which are shown to somehow reach the settings which is your golden goal. Gmail worked for me but it was really a back and forth till I somehow ended up in the playstore and then opened the settings application(if its not in the playstore try to open a launcher like Nova launcher or Google Now). If you managed to reach that point its nearly done.
just find the setup-wizard in your applications (systemapps) and give it ALL the rights it needs(should be phone and contacts). I have stopped him additionally but I dont think that added up anything. After that is done just hold the power button till its off and after the restart the setup wizard should be able to detect ur google account and finish his job.
Thank god there are glitches out there.
But as far as I found out alot of glitches get patched sooner or later so...yea:silly:

Bypassing startup password

Hi, new here and I am hoping you guys can help me. I tried the sticky tread, but no response.
I have a problem and can't seem to find a solution.
Yesterday my phone had some problems with the camera and suggested to restart the phone. Did so, but now it is asking me for a password to startup the phone. I forgott my password and came to my last try. If I get it wrong this time, my phone will reset itself, deleting all the data. Is there a way to bypass this first password?
I am finding stuff about how to unlock a lockscreen (for example: https://android.imyfone.com/remove-screen-lock/unlock-motorola/), but I haven't even reached to that step yet, at least I think. Maybe I am seeing/understanding things wrong.
My phone is still the way it came out of the factory, so no rooting or USB debugging. It's a Motorola One, no idea which android version it is running on. I bought the phone in 2019, so I am guessing it's running on Pie or higher, if possible Sorry, I am a true newbie at this.
From the Netherlands, sorry for any typos..
Please help!
This may come over as if I am trying to use someone elses phone, but it is mine. I can prove it. I have proof in the form of an invoice. I will show it if needed.
Please, there are photo's and other personal data on the phone. I don't want to lose it unless I have no choice. Maybe somebody knows a way how to get my personal data copied to the computer? Then I can perform a hard reset. Please help me..
salam aleikum,
we both seem to have the same problem.
my phone is not from factory, but from a Basar.
It looks absolutely new, no scratch.
But when i started it first 2 weeks ago, i could not even get past start menu.
It has a "Lock Pattern" and it is still registered with someone. But obiously it is used before, it came without Box or Manual.
Ive tried hours and days to get it to work.
But all i can find is people on youtube that bypass the password, but for me it doesnt work. I have no idea what Android version it is running, but the Glitches that i found where people go from "foreign keyboards" to "Feedback" into Chrome and appstore dont work.
I can not return it, do i only have expensive Trash now or Is it Possible to Install AndroidOS again and overwrite?
I tried factory reset and know now how to go into the BIOS.
I have never done any Modifications or Rooting to any phone, im okay with computers.
But from reading here it seems I have to know exactly what version my phone is on or its possible to break it completely.....
I saw the Bios_Menu "install from disk"
So i guess if i get the right version an a memorycard maybe i can do like a windows or linux "format/c" an have a fresh start?
I dont have money for a new phone, curretly i still have a wiko lenny 2 but the display is broken an i can only use half of the keyboard.
Always need to turn the screen and every message or google search takes one hour.
Please just tell me YES or NO
i will learn it myself but now im really frustrate by this.
EDIT: Through the keyboards i managed to get to feedback section and found this infos:
Package Version: 26751214
Package Version Name: 7.5.12.211120031release arm 64 v8a
Adnd some others
