All,
Normally I install VC as the first application on a new build / hard reset to avoid any issues. At present, I just finished installing a ton of other applications and then realized that forgot to install VC first and now it is refusing to activate after an error free installation. e.g. it isn't working...
Any thoughts on how to fix VC or force it to work?
I have toggled enable/disable, but no joy... (all that I am gettting is a busy pin wheel for a few seconds and then nothing at all, even after several resets...)
Any thoughts?

Have you tried the Fix originally designed for AP2 but also working on AP 3 ?
Maybe this will help here as well....
Sorry but I can't include any attachments....search for: PK 1[1].0 Touch Fixes(fixed).cab
Dieter
fyi:
I installed PK 4.0 today and immediatelly afterwards VC 1.6. Works fine without the patch mentioned above!

What does it help ? Mine is running without this cab. Will VC 1.6 run better ?
Dieter
Thanks guys
In my past experience, if VC isn't installed right after a fresh load it is unhappy with being installed at a later time. I think that the fix is only for folks like me that forgot to place that application higher up on the installation list during this time around...
Thanks again,
Bob

Hi,
Tried my first ROM with the kitchen on here. Used the latest essentials rom rather that the touch rom but added all the touch components within the OEM folder.
IT WORKED!!! Storage card ok, bluetooth ok. Touch flow ok. Just one problem........
Phone would not work. Doh!
Could not register on the network.
Any ideas why?
cheers.

Tried the same thing, got the same results...
Any help would be appreciated indeed.
some needed drivers are missing somewhere, anyway did you turn off the phone when running the upgrade ie do it in flight mode??
rgs
I always update in flight mode. don't like the idea of receiving a message whilst doing it.
You would think that with the phone working in the rom kitchen original rom and the essentials donor rom that there would have been more than enough working drivers.
: )
try comm manager -> settings -> phone if it asks for your pin..
was missing in some roms i tried...

there shouldn't be any reason for changing anything with because I used essentials rom and added the touch stuff and some more oems
arent you using 10 buttons comm manager? that is one of the problems, if you make oem package from commonly distributed cab, you should mod its registry to work correctly. it contains many obsolete entries and also some preventing GSM activation.
I was solving this just today

It says in the notes that there are several IMEs (pcm Keyboard...I think CE star) which do not work. On another thread about Chinese IMEs, they noted that most are not working. This is, to me, the worst part about this ROM... I may need to go to another rom because for whatever reason, non-default IMEs are not working.
Well...they sometimes work right after a soft reset...and then fail.
I have English Rom version O2 Xda Atom Pure! Calligrapher worked before on 0.3.0 and original roms. Just this rom won't work on!

if this program works..can u share to me this program and PM to me the Se**al..thanks
Jiggs I know you are busy however I'd just see if there could be any work arounds so I can run Calligrapher. I have tried the suggested "sip change" programs mentioned and also tried sk tools etc. Only if you have time of course! I'd be very grateful. Thanks again for your wonderful work
I have just tested the latest version of caligrapher on my new build. It works perfectly
Caligrapher is cool, but the application is large
I agree with Jiggs. Nice software though.
Could I help test the new build? Or is that too much to ask?
Calligrapher v8.5 works fine for me w/6M pagepool.
Calligrapher uses a LOT of memory. It seems to fail to run when you have too many today plugins (or a few using lots of memory). Here are the things to try:
1. Go to options and set Calligrapher to be the default SIP on reset.
2. Reset the device.
If it still doesn't work:
3. Disable ALL of your today plugins.
4. Reset the device.
If it works now, decide which today plugins you can't live without and turn them on one by one until Calligrapher stops working.
If it did not work, try SIPChange - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=271008.
Good luck!
Hi guys,
I decided to upgrade my phone the other night, for no other reason then I like to fiddle and see what I can do with things =). WM5 worked fine, but I wanted to check out what WM6 had to offer.
So I download the official upgrade from the HTC member area ( http://www.dopodasia.com/Dopod_Aus ) and install as directed.
Everything went great, and I am pretty happy with WM6.
But after the upgrade, trying to start the camera brings up a dialog box with the error message "Unable to start camera. Unable to initialize Camera". This occurs if I hit the shortcut or run the .exe from explorer.
I downloaded the camera software but trying to overwrite the installed files using activesync yeilds an "unable to overwrite because files are write-protected" error, and attempting to write-enable the files is disallowed (the file just reverts back to write-protected, frustratingly).
I've searched these forums and others, and I can't find any answers.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I had the same problem when I pass from WM5 to WM6 because I try to restore a backup from my old ROM over my new ROM, thing that is impossible that works well due to registry and file incompatibilities.
I don't know if it's your case or not...

The key thing is that reflashing to a known-good ROM doesn't fix it. What about in your case?

Hrmm.. I haven't tried yet, still looking for some sort of workaround or a software solution.
I'll try another OS tomorrow and let you know how it goes.
I also have this error, but...
...occasionally, it works when I do the following:
- Cold boot the device (no soft reset)
- Start the camera, but the screen will display noise
- Close the camera
- Start it again
- Second time, it will operate as expected
But funny enough, this trick doesn't work all the time...
I have friends and collegues that also upgraded and they don't experience this problem at all...
Same thing here... I bought 4 att 8525 units at ebay. they already came with wm6 3.57 from cingular.
3 units are working with no problems, but the camera stopped working in one of the phones.
I've tried everything (I think) , soft reset, hard reset, rom upgrade/downgrade.
A little of history ... so maybe some guru out there figures out what the f.. is going on:
1) The camera used to work fine.
2) Suddenly it began to fail saving pictures to the SC (sandisk 2gb) . All the phones have the same card.
If you choose to save to main memory, it worked.
3) The same day, the message "unable to initialize camera" started to show everytime I tried to start the camera application (4.0).
4) I tought it may be a failure SC, so I removed the SC, reset the phone but nothing changed.
5) Incredibly.... after then phone been turned off for a while... when I turned it on, the camera worked. Took a few pics... and the same error again!
6) Soft reset, hard reset.... nothing...
7) Updated SPL, radio and Rom (schaps 3.57) and the camera did work again!!!!! (with the SC in) .... after a few hours (no applications or skin applied) the error came back.
8) repeated those steps..... but no luck this time....
9) removed sim, sc and repeat steps.... no luck...
10 ) now, it is not working.... I tried coolcamera... but it does not start... tried camera 4.11... nothing... I went through the registry comparing with the other phones... everything is correct.
11) now I am thinking it is hw problem... but how is it possible that it works from time to time??????
Well... I almost gave up looking for a solution.... any idea would be great!
(what is a cold reset? )
thanks
fabian
Good news!!...
I just downloaded this cab that says it corrects SC bad management.
After installing the cab... turning off/on the phone... the camera works!!
(I don't know for how long it will work... but at least it is alive! )
Good luck and please share your experience with this cab !!
fabian
I can't believe it.... it worked for 2 hours... I did nothing with the phone... when I got the phone to send a sms, I tried again the camera... and it did not work!!!!!
(((
this is really weird!!
Well... this seems more like a "blog" than a forum .
Yesterday night I try removing the battery for 15 minutes. Then I turned on the phone and the camera started working.
I was really pesimist about the time it will keep working well... so I took pictures , recorded video, store them into main memory, into SC .. I really messed up with the camera ... everything worked well... tryed also Coolcamera application and took picture at maximum resolution (1600x1200 I think) .. everything Ok.
The camera is still working today... I did soft reset and it is still working... I'm trying step by step every action... synchronize.. wi-fi... phone... sms.. mms.. etc etc...and the camera still working...
I wonder how long will this work.. and what the hell does taking away the battery ???? Does it clean something in the ram ?
Any answer???
fabain
damn
I was really hopeful of this cab...
installed it and nada...
trying the battery trick (again) with this new cab installed to see maybe well just maybe...
fingers crossed

Hey ya all,
Did a ROM upgrade
Schaps Pro New Very excellent to state the least!
Did a re-store (double dump move!)
Used SK Tools to re-store old backup of entire system (that was the double dumb move not the using the the fantastic SK Tools app!
Camera worked as well as a 2pixel can, but now get "Unable to start Camera not enough storage is available blah blah
So I did a search found a cab to a Kaiser link to rabidshare and tried to download 6 in a couple of days NO go on that,
http://rapidshare.com/files/97924716/Nadavi_HTC_Camera_5_0_4_2915_00_NEW_HTC_FIX.cab
Rabidshare doesn't finish download most every time I try on PC or phone!
Can anyone provide another link to download form please please!
So I tried another cab on this forum ArtemisSDeng and no go with soft rest.
Took battery and micro card out, 15 minutes (what-ever) no go on that either. . .
Have
Storage FREE 32.96 MB
Programs free 27.81 MB
So NOW what can I do besides buy a new Tynt and not restore old system restore over a NEW ROM?
Much help please?
where are updated cameras anyway?
I am currently running version 3.0 build 25498 HTC Camera on my Wizard with WM6 (NBD v9.2) ROM. Where can I find updated camera files. I tried a ROM once that had version 3.3 on it and it seemed to work better but I haven't found any standalone copies of the camera programs.
Anyone?
Can I use this cab for my HTC TYTN II (Kaiser) or its ony for Artemis ?
Hope this helps,
The reason that my camera messed up after installing a new ROM, is that I re-stored my device with a whole system restore!
This covered over the new upgraded settings found in the NEW ROM with old settings/ configuration !
SO I reinstalled the OLD ATT ROM (yuk) and BINGO camera works as it did before the undated ROM!
Now I going to reinstall the NEW cooked ROM, without the restore system and just hand install all my 6 apps, so I don't mess up the updated camera settings!
Maybe next week hopefully!
Hope that helps someone, so they can run a cooked ROM without messing up their camera!
Later!
madefree, you can restore all the old setup of your phone with SPB Backup ver2. It has an upgrade rom mode that doesn't alter the os at all but puts things back as they were on your old os. Today screen how you like it, any apps you've installed(fully regged). The only thing I've found was that for some roms I had to re-install the .net framework 3.5 as it DOESN'T alter the OS files. Well worth the money..
Cheers...
Thanks much ultramag69 for that info on the v2, as I was doing a flash on LVSW Edition ROM in about 20 minutes, so maybe dnload SPB Backup v2 and give it a try!
I just wish Sktools did that same type install, since I already bought that app!
Again thanks!

Good Morning everybody,
Yesterday i installed the darkstone android Froyo on my HTC HD2, it worked pretty fine.
I reboot the phone to finish the installation and everything was normal. I download apps on the market ... all's good.
But i realize taht i've got no ringstone, i plug the phone on the computer and put the "media file" in the SD card.
I reboot the mobile and try to launch CLRCAD and HARET but i got the followinf message "The file XXX cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found"
I tried :
to format my SD,
to put a new install of android,
to reboot my phone,
to read different thread about this problem,
to test different program like Security configuration manager ...
I think that the problem doesn't come from Android build (it worked 2 times before) but win mobile ?
Here's my conf :
2.08 HDSPL
radio 2.12.50.02_2
darkstone froyo 2.1
rom 1.66 483 0 (76641) FRE (Bouygues telecom)
I don't understand what i did it wrong, it pretty worked and after 2 reboots i can't launch android.
Please can someone help me ?
Thanks in advance for your reply
Mike
Same issue
Hi,
I'm having this same issue. I hope someone can help. It doesn't seem to be an issue with the SD card. Did somehow the registry got corrupted? Please help.
Registry restore did not fix issue

To test my theory that it was a registry issue, I restored the registry that I backed up before installing Android. It DID NOT fix the issue.
What does that mean? It seems that everything that comes with the WM ROM works fine. It only effects the applications that were installed and not OEM.

I've now deleted my Android folder and the .folder and will see if that helps. I don't believe it will because I've removed the SD card and the programs I installed on the ROM still did not work. I'm hoping I don't need to do a hard reset. That would be a pain.
That only thing I did before having this issue was that I installed several games from the Android market place; final fantasy 6, angry birds, and a couple of others.
Had the exact same problem running FroyoStone Sense - V3.1. Couldn't even install SDKcerts. Tried everything & the only solution was a hard reset.
Hi All. I got myself into a bit of a jam with netCF3.5.
I've done a search here, but according to the wisdom already here, the install should be straightforward
Here's the problem:
I was experiencing a few probs with a few apps that needed it. They had been working fine, but all of a suddenly they started complaining that they couldn't find netCF3.5.
So, I downlaoded the cab and tried to reinstall. But, just as the instal was starting, my HD2 said: 'the required program is installed in ROM' (or something like that!)...and then the instal aborted.
The apps still won't run. I tried UN-installing CF3.5 from the device using 'uninstall apps' and managed to remove it. But when I then tried to re-install the cab again - I got the same message about it's already installed in ROM. Good job I had a full backup of everything! At least I'm back to where I was before I uninstalled it.
So, what have I done since:
1. Tried and retried a few times to reinstal, but it's made no difference
2. Checked the registry to see if it's pointing to the latest version of net cf3.5. It is
3. Pulled my hair out - that didn't take long )
I guess I'm looking for a way to 'force' install netCF3.5 and stop the message about it already being installed in ROM.
Any help greatly appreciated.
(I'm normally pretty good with these sorts of problems, but this one has left me clueless)
Cheers
