[noob] Images problem

[ophiel118]

I know it's something simple, but I have wizard for 4 days now and I really don't know what's going on (and i didn't find it here or in google, 4h of searching is enough)

so:

Images & Videos icon in Programs menu doesn't work. It just refreshes the screen nothing else.
What's more - in contact menu (contact -> menu -> edit) there is "choose image" and when i click it, it doesn't work as well.
Explorer opens my images with s2v.

It's Windows Mobile 5, previous owner changed its language and maybe did something wrong, i think i must install something or change smtg in registry ?

give me hints, i must have contacts' pictures :D

52 viewers and no reply to you either. Funny eh? I have not received my Wizard yet, so I don't have the ability to replicate or diagnose your problem. However, I do know that reflashing my device always seemed to help when I had a problem such as this.

Search for your original ROM and reflash it. That might take care of te problem. Maybe after, if that works, upgrade to 6.0 or beyond.

According to UPS Tracking, I should receive my device tommorrow and will be able to help better. It has left MN, hit IN and Kentucky on it's way to SC, so apparently on time. woo hoo.

Sorry not much help today. :)

Hi, I was thinking about reflashing my phone, but I'm waiting for full Embedded Linux or other linux support (I've read that they're working on it).

But I found smtg interesting, concerning my problem:

Images & Videos still doesn't work - and nothing but reflashing will do propably (propably, probably jeez this language is odd o_O),

but!

s2v has an option to assign viewed picture to contact and it works pretty well, i can see photos in contact list, WisBar Advance Desktop and when I'm calling.

so I change my question into:

What is the name of default image viewer in windows mobile 5? Isn't it Internet Explorer lol?

It's still a long ways off from being fully functional though.

all right, i've upgraded my phone to WM6, it runs and boots a lot faster and of course i've got no problems with images anymore :)

so it was basically something deleted or changed in my previous WM, topic can be closed now.
