the moment i start up my hd2, it says s2u2.exe is missing or corrupted that kinda **** and my sense can't load. bootloader can still be accessed though.
it jus stays at the screen and says tap here to launch htc sense. tapped and nth happens. i know i need to get s2u2 off my phone but it's installed inside and i can't access any settings or whatsoever.
mine's not hspl coded so i can't flash any roms.
You'll have to do a hard reset.
don't listen to the guy above.
Have you tried pressing the windows key then accessing settings to remove the app?
If you can't access this way, try accessing your programs via Active Sync and try removing S2U2 that way.
Try disabling Sense and load the default... then load it back.
hmm how do i realli disable sense? active sync won't work, cause it won't get into sense.
if i can disable sense, get into the normal windows and jus factory reset everything would be good.
practically nothing realli works when i start up..anyway i can access windows thru other methods say bootloader no?
you don't need sense to access Active Sync... you can even access your programs without accessing Sense.
Just press the Windows button > Settings > Today > Items and disable the Sense and tick Windows Default
Doing a factory reset is the same as a Hard Reset so if you want to do that then you can find the tutorial on doing a hard reset easily.
Do the stuff i said first so you don't waste your time hard resetting.
Encountered the same problem as TS.
HTC sense kept reloading. I got the "Tab to load Sense" thing too.
All the buttons and icons went missing on the home tab.
I couldn't access any of the functions of my phone, not even the remove programme function.
It just showed something like "SettingsImprovement is not certified or the file is missing". Can't remember exactly what it is saying.
Had to do a hard reset in the end...
yeah i hard reset in the end too. found out that some of the hd2 tweak settings i made had it hung..nv realli touched it since..dang.
Actually, the way to solve this is as follow (DO NOT need a hard reset!).
1) Press the Windows start button.
2) Double click on the File Explorer to run the program.
3) Browse to Windows directory.
4) Find the theme item "HTC Black" and double click on that to run. This will bring up the "Today" setup screen for setting the theme and items.
5) Find the "HTC Sense" item and uncheck that.
6) Reboot.
7) Now the phone should load normally.
8) Go to Windows settings to fix the problem.
For myself, I had to go through these steps in order to get into the settings because the settings were linked to the HTC manila tab which was having the trouble to load at the first place.
Guys,
I have a similar problem.
It says "Launching HTC Sense" and nothing happens.
None of the hard keys work, the screen does not react to any press, it is just frozen.
Actyve Synch dos not work also. I am even not able to hard reset because the phone does not react anymore. It still says "Launching HTC Sense".
I have tried to remove and put back the sd card, no result.
I have hopefully backed up a recent version in my SD card.
How could I hard reset the device?
Please help
HTC Sense wont load fix
Hey guys im not too sure if this was discovered yet and im not too sure where this problem comes from but its a problem with the sd card and something that is installed it, a simple fix was to remove the sd card , mount it to your computer and examine your card, look for anything out of the ordinary such as auto run programs and move them to the trash, after deleting the trash put your sd card back into your htc hd2 and pow good as new. . . . someone else try this out and let me know if its a easy fix for u as well. . .
the hard reset, press the reset button on the back of HD2 while holding both volume up and volume down buttons. then press Vol Up to start formatting the device.
try uninstalling Cookie Home Tab & Editor and reinstalling them. that fixed my HTC sense issue
Hi,
If none of the hardware buttons work, what you guys are suggesting does not work...
What I had done is to remove the battery the whole night, after putting back the battery, the hardware buttons worked again, I have solved the problem.
Thanks anyway
HTC Sense problem
Sayborg, on your boot loader what is the number after CotullaHSPL? Is it 0x20 or 0x30?

HTC touch HD T8282
Hi, I am using HTC Touch HD T8282
using Windows mobile 6.5
I tried to change the wallpaper from Start-->settings-->home and chose use this picture as the background option. It worked fine before i shut down my phone. When I open it the next day, it won't load HTC sense. When I changed to Window's default, it won't load home page either. But when i use it with just date from setting-->home-->items, it will load home screen, but with HTC sense and windows default, home page and quick links won't load. What should I do, pls help

I think you posted the wrong forum
This is for HTC HD2 (T8585)

ok, since this problem is getting seriously troubling, i decided to open up a new thread for it.
i have tried two different wm5 roms, three different wm6 roms, three different sd cards, four different radio roms, two different ipl and two different spl versions. no luck so far. and this is the story in detail:
EVERY program icon in the pull down start menu referring to prgrams installed to the memory card disappears/turns into a white box after EVERY soft reset. if i then switch off phone fuctionality through the commanager, they SUDDENLY re-appear correctly. when i activate the phone again, they STAY THAT WAY! but after the next soft reset, they are all white again.
the funny thing is that it really only concerns icons with reference to the storage card and ONLY the start menu section, NOT(!) the "recent programs" section. there they remain in tact after soft reset.
so it looks as if this is some problem between the radio and the storage card slot (or drivers) during the boot phase.
has anybody encountered this problem, too? is there any solution? i also contacted o2 customer service which told me they would try to reproduce this issue on their machines, and if they could not confirm it, they would deal with it as technical flaw - hopefully meaning that they would replace my device.
so, any suggestions, mates??
The solutions below work fine in my case. You might like to give it a try if it is a real problem for you.
My earlier solution:
1. run clauncher (you can download it practically everywhere)
2. only activate clauncher (edited: tray launcher) and (optional) type in NO path for any application
3. find and run any software such as SKTools enable to set the order of applications in the StartUp folder
4. set clauncher.lnk(edited: tray launcher) as the first in order
5. soft-reset
Or, try the alternative to solve icon-missing problem
My present solution:
simply using quickmenu in lieu of WM menu (again, it's available everywhere)
Good luck!

isn't it a common issue....,a nuisance ^^?? it happens all over wm2003, wm5, wm6....
actually you don't need to do anything except to "re-click" any item of menu on the setting page to get the icons back, if you decide not to rely on the third party applications.
BTW, if you don't really appreciate Quickmenu, an additional exe, you might like to wait for this >>> http://www.dotfred.net/FdcStartMenu.htm. However, my wild guess is this one might have the very same problem since it doesn't change the order of all the services....

wow! is it really that common?? i haven't noticed that? never ran into this problem before. but good to know. so i won't need to tease my service provider...
so this is kindof the same trick as v1 of htc album but it helps it load a little faster. make a shortcut with the following
19#"Windows\htcalbum.exe" -directory:\my documents
you can change my documents to what ever you want.
irus where can i find a cab or download for htc album? It wasnt in you addon bundle connected to the Ultra Vanilla!!!

this is version 2.0.1816.3421 the shortcut has already been modified. i have not tested it as my rom already has it in there.
thanks irus....what would we do without you.....(sale the device)
After installation it didn't work. As a matter of fact, it produced the same bug that Windows Live created.....the lost of Ram and skin distortion. So I went into safe mode and deleted it. Just in case it messed something up, where do I go in the registry to finish deleting the remaining files? Um trying to avoid another hard reset. BTW, would you recommend SKTools as far as backup for our device? Im trying to find a good app that would back up all my info so I can quickly restore if I try other roms and want to go back.

Im really sorry to hear that it messed things up, i will look at it some more what exactly happen when you tried to run it
yea, sprite backup does the trick for me too.
No apologies needed irus. I just appreciate you for helping and sharing.
What it does is that after the installation I would soft reset it. Then it doesnt fully load in the splash screen. I'm running WA3, so the top or bottom part of the skin wouldnt load and cant load. AFter everything is booted....the Ram would be significantly low....meaning I hav probably lost 20mb's. So I would soft reset again, and same thing. It also moves extremely slow to open applications, some application wouldnt even start during this.
So I just went into safe mode and deleted it. It is working normal now, but I know when I installed Windows Live, it wouldnt fix itself with a softreset even after the removal of Windows live.
So anyway.....thank you for the Sprite Back suggestion lpsi2000 and irus. I just purchased it.
irus, what do you think it did to the Rom.....because it is doing that RAM leak thing again. Now its at a point where a Softreset will not fix it. Is there something in the registry I can delete, change, or something to get it stop doing this? It keeps freezing as well. Lastly, I noticed the splash screen (windows Mobile 6.1 with the loading bar) doesn't complete. It stops about half way. Please help Bro. trying to avoid a Hard reset. I got sprite back up now....but im certain the problem will follow if I take the hard reset route.
thanks

well, if you uninstalled htc album, file and reg settings should be gone also. I not really sure if htc album is causing this because the only exe/dll files are: htcalbum.exe, albumsearcher.exe, fsplayer.dll, thats it the rest are .bmp, .png, .xml files which would not effect the running of your pda. is there any other app that you have installed.
No, I havent installed anything in the last week or so. Just Sprite Backup, but the problem started before I installed that.
I wonder do I have a corrupted SD card. I tried to install it to that. But that wouldnt explain the same behavior after I installed Windows live a couple of weeks ago
thank Irus....I think I might just go with another hard reset. I will wait until your response first.

to be honest im not sure if a corrupted sd card would be the problem, do you use the SDAutoRestart.exe to load all of your apps? just do a hardreset to see if it fixes the problem
I did a back up with sprite back up and Hard reset, that fixed it. Thanks.
Question: After I restored everything from sprite back up, I think my storage memory has dropped significantly. I think I had about 84mb of storage, now I'm down to 39mbs. Did the restore do this? If so, How do I reclaim my storage memory back?
How can i make an shortcut with this "19#"Windows\htcalbum.exe" -directory:my documents" ???
Similar posts exist but I'm confused as this has never happened to me before despite identical circumstances.
I took out my SD card to view a file using my PC's SD reader (didn't edit or anything).
I replaced the card.
Now all my apps and stuff are still installed, no missing data that I can tell...but my home screen looks to have reverted to an earlier state--I think actually the stock GO state. I was pretty certain there was no need to "save" home screen setups--am I wrong?
I'm using GO EX as my launcher and Home Manager to swap between GO and stock. I've swapped back and forth a few times to make sure and the problem persists. Meanwhile the home screen on my stock launcher is totally up-to-date.
The only other aberration I"ve found is that it looks like the list of apps I configured in JuiceDefender ultimate is gone--meaning there are no preferences selected now for when to allow which programs to access data.
My guess is that I somehow wiped the cache of all my programs? But that doesn't really fit with the situation either....
I've got a big log from JuiceDefender I can type up if that would help clarify.
Yeah, when I booted my phone today it came up with a totally different background...so something is fishy.
I suspect it's some app I've given control to like JuiceDefender Ultimate or Optimize Toolbox.
Anyone experience something similar?
Hey guys
Ive just upgraded from to the Galaxy s2 (from an HTC desire) and first impressions are that i love it. I have a few q's that i hope some people can help me with:
1. On my home screen, i cant change/move the very bottom line of apps (phone/contacts/messaging/applications). Is there anyway to switch these out with something else (a different app)?
2. HTC has friend stream which is a full page widget showing all your facebook/twitter updates. The s2 has social hub, but is there anyway to show this in a full page widget?
3. Is it possible to assign an option to long press the (soft) back button? The menu button already brings up google search, and quite simply i want long press back to bring up voice search
4. The interal storage (12gb or something like that) current shows as USB storage, which prevents me from moving apps across to it. Any way to rectify this?
5. I have already rooted my phone. Will i still be able to take OTA updates without any problem? (something you couldnt do on a rooted HTC)
6. Any way to stop the default internet browser from opening websites in mobile view? Ive seen a workaround which only lasts the session, but just wondering if theres a permanent one (dont want to use opera as it doesnt have flash working/working well yet).
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help

I'll try my best, here goes..
1. Open the app drawer by pressing the home icon on the dock-->press menu then edit. Now you can drag any icon you wish to the dock then hit menu again and save.
2. I don't think there is a social hub widget (at least I don't) but you can download a third party app/widget that will be similar to friends stream.
4. The internal storage is always under "usb storage" in settings/storage. What are you trying to move?
5. Yes, as long as you don't change your firmware.
Hey
thanks for your help Im just trying to move some apps which ive downloaded across to the sd storage but it keeps telling me im out of memory. Im guessing this is because i havent yet added my own microsd, but thats on the agenda for tomorrow
Your welcome. You got it, once you install an external sd you will be able to move files to and from the internal storage.
I'm using Opera, and the flash seems to work fine for me so far, might be worth trying it (especially since it's free).
does seem to be working now...its been a long time since i last tried it
sorry to hijack the thread but does anyone else notice that when you put apps into a newly created folder (for example I have one called favourite apps) and the icons within that folder have moved around....you know how you by habit press a couple of buttons and bam your in xda well because these moved around I launched dilbert! not that this is critical but just wondered if anyone else notices this behaviour?
I have a dual Booted Tablet. When I hit the N button it usually asks me if I want to go home or ADW Launcher(The launcher I chose). Now it stays on the original Nook screen and randomly opens up different books on its own and flips pages on its own. Also, the option to open up ADW is gone. if I hit the N button it just opens up whatever book I was reading last. I turned the device and back on but it acts the same way. Can anyone help me?
I'm not sure what you mean by 'dual booted'. With CM7?
Similar behavior to what you describe (things opening randomly, pages flipping, etc.) usually happens when the battery is very low. I've also seen it happen trying to use USB power adapters that don't really work correctly for the NT. Make sure you're not operating on a very low charge or other power issue.
I used Indirect's Root. I was able to keep the original Nook look as well as boot into another launcher. It was working fine until yesterday. Now the Home button doesn't do what it should but the main thing is that the screen types and writes all on its own. I heard about the low power setting issues with some people. My Nook was at 60% so I don't know if that's considered low enough to be under that umbrella

I can't help you with your problem, but I want to make things clear.
You don't have dual boot or anything like that, you just installed alternative launcher application.
In general you have the same stock firmware you had before rooting with addition of a few apps, allowing you to do more, than B&N wants you to be able to do.

This is correct.
Disclaimer: I am a noob. Please take the following suggestions with a grain of salt.
Perhaps, clearing the homecatcher defaults will clear things up?
Alternatively, you could try installing a different launcher, such as golauncher, and see if it behaves as strangely as your current configuration.

Well I would just install another launcher but the problem is that I can't access the other launcher any longer. The Home button doesn't work like its supposed to but instead opens up the Nook's Book Library. The whole thing just started acting weird and randomly the keyboard would pop up and write by itself in addition to opening and closes the book Library. Its been acting like it has a virus. I factory reset it but unfortunately it didnt help. So I figure my screen is faulty

I got the same few hours after I rooted but using go launcher, just clean your screan very very clean if you haven't put a screen protector on it, then make sure its charged. Now try to open anything in that you could find a link click on it so it opens the browser then go to the android.market.com and download another launcher. After that I took my tablet and removed all the B&N crap apps, ijust left the games. Don't forget to apply the OTA block again.
Advice: remove home catcher.
PS: you could also use adb to push a new launcher but as you factory reseted usb debugging must be disabled, you need can enable it again by downloading tgps_launcher.apk from indirects root thread using the Nook browser.

Have you tried going in to manage apps and deselect the default for ADW, B&N's Home Launcher and Homecatcher if your using it? I use button savior so I have software buttons rather than the n button. by deselecting the default launcher you should get a window again asking which launcher do you want to use as home.
