new camera wont load, media player won install - XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps

The new camera will not load at all, and if I uninstall the new camera, I don't have a camera anymore. Where can I get the cab to reinstall old camera?
Also the media player panel will not install with sdkcerts, activex deployment, and panel manager.
And what is the point Jack's Xperia Panel? It doesn't install, and it already came with the device, and you can't even uninstall it. So why is there a cab for a panel that can't be uninstalled or moved to another panel?
Help?

having very similar problems, even after a hard reset...

You know...that's why you MUST get the latest version of Sprite Backup for Pocket PC...
I have used it three times now, and every time I get back everything 100% the way it was. There is absolutely no incompatibility even after an R2A update...
That's how I fixed my camera problem without needing to reformat and reinstall like 50 of my applications/games!

Of course I am serious, but I believe this is only because I install so many applications, last time I had 40 megabytes left for application space, so I had to remove alot of applications (even though I didn't want to). It must be a registry problem caused by my applications.
So DO NOT UNINSTALL any of the CABs once you install these. Even panel manager R3A because once you do it you can't go back. If you uninstall the new panel manager you can't open it either.
BTW panel manager works, its faster but it freezes my device more frequently.
Mr Nguyen, as a Nguyen myself, you can trust in my experience with the reliability of Sprite Backup, if you want to see if the new camera works, install sprite first and make a full device memory backup (also backsup program settings + registry). After you install sprite, you can mess with your device with no fear.
I hope you consider the program. I love it!

what the hack are you talking about? My Xperia panel cab is solely for people using my rom since it's removed from my rom by default, and I released it on my own thread and no where else (but I have no control if anyone use it on other thread). If some fool did not read and verify carefully, and did not making backup (SPB backup never failed me so far) before he/she take the risk, then who's fault is it?

Sorry Jack, I had absolutely no idea that it was custom roms.
The confusion came from the fact that it is possible to uninstall SE Media Panel and the X1 Radio Panel.
And whether your ROM is R1A or R2A, you need SKTools to search for the cab in the internal memory or something, OR you can use the cabs uploaded here.
This is very useful since SE Media Player and Radio can be accidentally installed.
Also, sometimes I get confused as too which .cabs are compatible and work for which phones... and I don't search the entire forum archive so I don't know everything.

my media panel doesn't load - only blue screen shot and... : (

Keeping software when upgrading rom

Hi,
I've got my diamond flashed to 3.4 duttys. It's really good but I do have a few problems with it. Sometimes when you hold the hang up key to lock it it simply scrolls through the touch flo screens. I was thinking I might upgrade to 3.6 and see if that ironed out the problems. Only thing is I've got a few apps on there that i'd prefer not to lose and reinstall at the moment. Is there a way to back up all apps before flashing? I don't think PIM does it? From what I can see it's just contacts etc.
Thanks for any help
supposedly spb backup will restore installed applications, databases and file (rom upgrade mode).
Please note: I have not tried this application, nor am I affiliated. I have no experience at all..I googled and found the product. So if it doesn't work, don't be mad at me

don not restore with sprite backuup.
just use pim backup for your contacts, ...
Cheers, Yeah i did try a restore with sprite once - didn't work out needless to say.
I'll take a look at SPB - thanks

SPB definitely works. I would suggest unticking the "overwrite" box when selecting ROM upgrade mode.
TBH I'd personally say just get used to it, until you find the perfect rom you are likely to change again.
Keep all the .cab's .exe's etc in a folder on the internal storage and reinstall the ones you want, it's a good way to keep the device tidy, and I think you'll probably find that you'll have to reinstall quite a few programs as you might find they keep their data spread around the filesystem.

Can you join Cab files?

I currently have about 30 programs installed on my mobile. I would like to simplify the installation process of these after a Hardreset. Is it possible to mrge them into one single Cab which will install all of the applications? Or will they then show up as only one item in the software list if I do this?

no you can't !
U can use a back up utility like sprite(Free with THD don't know about Xperia) or resco backup. Create a backup after installing all the apps U need and save it as a executable backup or as a back up set on the card. u can copy it in ur desktop also. Now anytime after a hard reset u can install those backed up apps without any other data. of course it may not work if U flash a new ROM etc.
One thing you can try is to look to see how UC works and set your cabs up that way..
You can then run it manually, copy sdconfig to /windows and run it. this way you should be able to manually run UC after installing any rom (even if it doesn't support it such as stock roms).

Im not a Cook so i dont really know how to 'cook' that thing to rom/device..
Just my 2cents, im very frustrated with re-installing all my apps everytime i upgrade to a newer version of rom. It's just pain in the ass.. Maybe the cookers can 'kindly' include the baby above in the rom. That's going to save the user alot of trouble..

main problem with cooking uc in is that it massively increases the amount of 'bugs' in a rom:
99% of the time they're down to 3rd party software and having stuff installed blindy makes things worse...
if you can get it running manually (after you've tested a new rom for a bit) then why not do that? it'll only take one click then...

no ringing alet NOT EVEN VIBRATE working

ok this just started happening a few min ago there is no alert whatsoever the phone is not ringing for any alert and wont vibrate. but the vibrate still works and i hear sounds from other things such as my media player. i tried changing the ringtone but it resets itself to ring01-windowsphone and i tried setting it to a custom ringtone...nothing! i tried a soft reset. still . all my volumes are up so i dont know what to do
im running the stock tmobile 6.5 rom
also it started happening when i disconnected it from mass storage mode
EDIT:i just found out my windows media player will not open
so the standard windows mobile media player is broken. i try opening it and nothing. not even a error message. is there a cab where i can reinstall it? anything but a dreaded hard reset would be nice
Same problem here - Hard Reset was the only option.

are you running the same rom? beacuse ive seen other post where this has happened and its a reoccurring issue even after hard resets. so if this is going to happen again im calling tmobile and getting a new TP2 with the stock 6.1 rom. i really dont want to hard-spl cus i have a feeling somethings going to happen where i have to return the phone and i dont want to have to go thru the hassle of undoing spl
and if my only option is to hard reset is there something where i can backup all my apps. cus i dont even remember where i got half my apps from and they take so long to install

Use a 3rd-party app like SPB Backup, that will do a full backup of your current os state, including installed programs.
For the future, I'd recommend creating a "cabs" folder at the root of your storage card, whenever you get a new app/tweak just download the cab straight to that folder, run it from there, and just leave it in there for archiving purposes...you'll always have any of them again, immediately accessible in situations like this

thank you for the app advice. ill use that next time. i use to have a apps folder i put them all in but my SD card stopped working so i had to format. i updated to a energy rom and it basically has everything i need. and more except groove fish, which i cant live without! so ill download that later.
i didnt really like the tmobile 6.5 rom and compared to this. that rom was CRAP!
also i looked for about 3 hours for a fix on the media player. and nothing really so best bet is to hard reset

New to Froyo and 3 questions!

EDIT: 4questions !
Hi guys. I just installed the 2.2 update via OTA, but now i got "3 little problems". Since i didnt find them via search buttom, i'd like to ask them here.
1.- Most settings are the same as before (2.1), but for example, Google Talk changed my nickname, from my name to my e-mail. I know there was a way to change it, but i dont find the way to...
I know people can change my nickname, so each one sees me with the nickname they want, but the "default one" was my name and now's my e-mail
2.- Facebook events + brithdates. Is there a way to disable them? I got all kind of connections from facebook disabled.. but dont find this new feature so i can disable it.
3.- Flash. I found on market Adobe Flash Player 10.1. Wasn't it supposed to be enabled by default? I mean. Should i install it? Is it better than default? I dont understand anything since i read that 2.2 came with default 10.1... but there's an app, from Adobe.
4.- Is is recommended to do a hard reset after updating? I mean. I got all apps from 2.1 installed. And since I update, none of them were removed, etc. Do I lose some speed or something if i dont hard reset? Maybe Hard Reseting + Reinstalling ALL apps make my device to run EVEN smoother and faster than it does. (It goes faster now than before with 2.1, but maybe...)
See you soon and thanks for all!!!
Bump !!!

I quick off-and-on again or battery pull if it slows down should suffice.
So 2.- Solved 100%
Still need help on:
1.-
3.-
4.-
Since 2 is exactly what we needed and 1,3,4 are things that you believe. Thank you very much !!!
w8ing for more answers
3 - included as default in the official rom
4 - always recommended when installing a new system, if not this could lead to bugs and performance issues. The official froyo is also odexed there's a chance your apps may conflict. if you have the time to hard reset then it's defo recommended.
don't know about the google talk thing though sorry.

3. and 4. answered
1. is still missing
Thank you for your answers ! w8ing for more

.nomedia files keep being regenerated

Hello everyone!
With my M8 and a hanfdul of ROMs (even stock ROM IIRC) I keep getting .nomedia files created all over the place on the SD, even in the default Camera folder... I delete them, then at some seemingly random point they're back. As a result I can't play music from the SD card and, using Quickpic I have to "show hidden" in order to access my photos.
Is there any way I can find what creates them? Anyone's got an inkling as to what's going on? I've gone through a few hard resets up to now, different ROMs as I've said (currently on ARHD) and the issue is a constant!
Thanks!

Tha somehow points to a "privacy" or "hide my files" app that you installed and that is set improperly. Are you sure that you don't have such an app, maybe installed automatically after hard reset from playstore by synchronisation or by some backup program?
Yes, I'm sure I don't have one, because I never installed one... Good thinking though.
The automatic creation of nomedia files is normal. It stops your gallery app from displaying all system files that are pictures.

Er, yes, but as I said this happens with the default camera folder, too. Not talking about system/program folders...

Oh wow. I've been googling it for months now but never came upon that thread...
Indeed I do have ROM manager (premium) installed, and though that thread is ancient and the problem is supposed to have been fixed years ago, I uninstalled it. Unfortunately after reboot .nomedia is recreated, so it's something else
Is there any way/log to find what is creating it?

Seems like a rare issue unique to what you installed or how you set up your device.
If I were you I would reinstall your rom from scratch (not restored from any backup), and use your device for a couple of days without installing any additional apps. After confirming the nomedia is absent, then slowly reinstall apps one by one until you see the problem reoccurring.
Sorry I have no better advices. May be others will.

Thanks, man, that's what I have been thinking for a while now, but I wanted to avoid it of course, hence why I'm asking how to troubleshoot it (and not "who is the culprit").
Funny thing is I don't run anything strange, right now Titanium (premium) and LP are the most system-"intensive" apps I have... And the problem used to exist with KK as it does with LP now!
Thanks again anyhow
