What kind of music player are there for WinMo 6.1?

And how do I disable the vibration when typing? thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Kefir.net:
Everything like for WinMo 6.5, CorePlayer, PocketPlayer, e.t.c.

You can disable vibration in EzInput settings.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bazinga:
Where is the EzInput settings?

And suggestion for next version: HTC Album! That would be great

This is an excellent rom. Keep up the good job!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Kefir.net:
Click on arrow near keyboard icon in bottom and select settings in popup menu..:)

Yes, i think it's possible to include HTC Album, I'll make a small update :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bazinga:
Thanks!

Another question. haha sorry

But it says that I am using ~200mb of memory where yours is 448. How did you get it to use that much ram?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Kefir.net:
Read the changelog :)

"- using 448 mb RAM configuration, it also prolong battery life (for me ).

So you need to flash SLP 3.03.HSPL(attached)"

New version use another configuration and with HSPL2 it's not working correctly.

With HSPL3 you'll have 448 total and ~250-300 free.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Gingerboy:
I don't think that it is a good idea. Clean ROM must be Clean ROM. You can install album manually.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hoanzlmann:
Thanks a lot for starting this! I remember old days when I had a dell axim x51v with wm6.1 cooked by a guy called lennysh - it was stable as hell and really bugfree...

Compared to this, wm6.5 is a poor piece of software. It was announced as touch friendly and good looking, but in reality nothing has changed, except for some improvements in memory handling. There are lot more bugs though..:mad:

wm6.1 seems to be the last OS where M$ put real effort, so I'm very glad that you made it available for the HD2. Combined with SPB mobile shell it makes this phone a real bomb...

I miss one thing though: Where can I set the device owner's name? It should be under Settings/Personal/Owner Info, right? But it's not there...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bazinga:
If I flash to 3.03, will I have to reflash the rom again?

and is there a way to turn off ALL data connections? (I don't have data on my phone....)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Kefir.net:
I didn't try to flash HSPL after ROM, so don't know. Maybe no, because it's not like MAGLDR, running from userspace.

But data connections are not pre-configured here, so your data connection should already be disabled.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jkalford:
I want to agree with this. :)

Also, even if you can't get the stock end key program working, I think it would be better to not include one cooked in the ROM. This allows us to install the end key program we prefer without using space in the ROM and avoiding potential conflicts from multiple installed end key programs.

Just my 2 cents. :D As always, happy to see this project alive! :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ralpheboyo:
1+...keep it clean...would however love to see msvc cooked in...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Matthes42:
no, please keep it clean and leave out anything besides the stock features (pls no msvc. it´s available as cab)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ralpheboyo:
this rom is very good...EXCELLENT!!!!! (my hd2 has never been this fast)....I get a couple of freezes now and then and will look into why....once again well done...:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] TheATHEiST:
WOW!

Didnt even know this existed, Haven't visited the WM in ages, Noticed this rom in somebodies signature.

Gunna have to give this a go soon :)

Thnx :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tusharch:
Great ROM ...

Thanks for this gift to HD2 users ... nice rom, stunning speed ...

I would also request others to refrain from demanding applications built in ROM which can be otherwise installed with a .cab ... neat n clean like this one is the best as everyone can customize it according to their personal preferences..

Thank you again for this great work ... :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] raven_raven:
Exactly, please don't cook in any unnecessery apps, if one wants it, one can install it via .cab file.

This ROM is very fast, clean and it's simply awesome to run Windows Mobile 6.1 on our HD2's :D. Thank you!

Jun24 CrossbowHD2 registry tweaks

Thanks for the ROM. I'm 'stuck' at WM6.1 due to some apps that I use which are no longer under development for WM6.5 or higher, so this is godsend!

Some useful registry tweaks:

1.Owner information can be made to appear by changing a value in the registry. Just use a registry editor and change hide=1 to hide=0.

\HKLM\ControlPanel\Owner

You'd need to enable this to register quite a few software.

2. You can turn off default Auto Screen Lock by adding the following value,

HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and then change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0

Alternatively, run the 'Touch X autolock disable.cab' found at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=584415

Please Help:

- Wifi : anyone able to get Wifi to work properly? It's able to connect to my home router but not to internet.

- G-Senor only works occasionally i.e. able to auto rotate page orientation in browser.

- QuickGPS : downloads but refuses to update, tells me I need to enable Location service (how?).

Cheers

Edit: - No problems with Wifi, it was my defective handset... my bad.

Does anyone know how to disable closing programs by tapping x ?I want tap and hold x to close.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Gingerboy:
Try this one http://www.dinarsoft.com/handyswitcher/ I use it 7 years or more.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Bungee88:
From the change log, the Xperia X2 Task Manager was included with ROM v0.8.2. However, I was never able it keep it open like the picture below, and it would always close the program.

If you wish to change the task manager, just go to the Windows\StartUp directory on your HD2 and either move or delete 'TaskManager' in there. Afterwards, you can use whatever task manager you wish. I had to do this to allow the task manager included with Spb Pocket Plus (v4.1.0) to function. I'd highly recommend Spb Pocket Plus. Besides a ton of other features, it allows you to customize the control and functions of the close button (tap to close, tap to minimise, programs to exclude.. etc). Cheers.

Wi-Fi

Hi folks, I'm really loving this ROM. I want to give Kefir.net a gigantic hug! Compared to my old HTC Touch Pro 2 (also downgraded to WM6.1 from WM6.5), the HTC HD2 makes my WM6.1 programs fly.

Not a deal breaker but it's a pity still that I can't get wireless to work. I'm been trying a couple of things without any success. Here are some findings to share:

1. The wireless appears to work if you turn it on using Wireless Manager in settings. It will connect to my home router but that's about it. I can't get to the internet.

2. If you look under Wi-Fi in settings, the 'Turn on Wi-Fi' box is unchecked and checking it doesn't make it stick. Under Wireless Networks and looking at the 'Broadcom 802.11 DHD Network Adapter', I noticed an alien DHCP assigned IP address (169.254.73.243). Changing to 'Use specific IP address' and manually entering values for my home network (IP, SN, GW, DNS) still doesn't allow me to get to the internet.

3. Although I can't get to the internet, the Wireless adapter apparently is still working 'cos using a program like WMWifiRouter allows me to run the HD2 like as a wireless hotspot with my 3G connection.

Any assistance or information on Wifi for v0.8.2 would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Bungee88:
Yes, this is an annoyance. Only a soft reset will get rid of the notification. The 'Dismiss' option on the right soft key is missing.

Well, there is at least a registry tweak that would disable the Bluetooth disconnected message from waking up the Phone from standby

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3975372&postcount=3059

It would not get rid of the notification totally.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Bungee88:
Oh wait.. you CAN get rid of the Bluetooth disconnect notification totally.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5553410&postcount=6505

If you're unable to find the {607CDEA2-E44A-4528-A2C3-A7DC6B6D824D} key under HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\ , just run the cab in my previous post, or insert it manually using a registry editor. This will work together with the cab.

I love XDA-developers forum so much !! :)

Thank you so much for your help but I don't like spb pocket plus I want old HTC task manager .I installed version 2 and 2.1 but there is no Icon in taskbar.Do you know where the problem is?

here is the task manager
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Bungee88:
Sorry, I can't help you with this, maybe Kefir.net can. You don't need to use Spb Pocket plus there are other commercial or free task managers you can try to see if they work. Cheers.

Greetings. Has anyone managed to get Wifi working on CrossbowHD2 v0.8.2?

In addition, if there's a way for me to transfer my MMS settings from my old/existing phone to work on this build, please let me know.

I'm been using CrossbowHD2 v0.8.2. and love how it makes WM6.1 fly on the HTC HD2. Out of curiosity, is it possible to (dual) boot Andriod off the microSD on HD2 with this? Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Kefir.net:
I really don't know about Wi-Fi problems, if works for me. Tried with several routers, all with WPA2-PSK.

Yeas, it's possible throught HaRET, it works perfectly on this ROM.

Hi Kefir, you're right about the Wi-Fi. No problems... apparently it was something wrong with the hardware on my HD2. I'm changed to another HTC HD2 and Wifi works just fine.

Thank you for the information on HaRET. I've put Android CM7.1 v2.3.5 Gingerbread on my SD and it works amazingly well. Bluetooth, Camera, Compass, GPS, MarketPlace, Adobe Flash... etc. bloody amazing!

I've also figured out a workaround for the G-Sensor (automatic page rotation) not working. Apparently, it needs to be---for lack or a better word---'awaken' by software.

I recommend Resco Photo Manager 7.11. Once you launch this program, the G-Sensor starts to work, not just within Photo Manager but also in Messaging, Opera Mobile and any other programs that support the G-Sensor.

Photo Manager is also a great alternative HTC Album (not included in Crossbow v0.8.2 BTW) and supports multi-touch zoom and rotation. Cheers.

This is just what I have been looking for! But please could you make one with the original dialer? Anyway it looks superb, does it have transcriber? If so I might get a capacitive stylus. WM 6.1 is a great classic OS, like WinXP which will be used forever, lol. I will download and flash as soon as I fix my HD2's USB port :/

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Bungee88:
Good luck with that. My local HTC service center quoted me about USD50 for repairing the USB port. They later called back to say that it was more than the USB port that needed repairing and that I needed to pay USD150 to replace the entire motherboard. At that point, I just bought a used HD2 off eBay for that amount. It's still worth the price if you as me 'cos WM6.1 is wicked on the HTC HD2. Being able to dual-boot into Android is a bonus.

Bungee88's recommended Windows Mobile 6.1 software for HTC HD2

I'm enjoying running CrossbowHD2 v0.8.2 WM6.1 so much on my HTC HD2 that I'd like to share a list of the software found though XDA-developers and elsewhere which I've loaded onto my device. Some are freeware, others commercial and then there are those which unfortunately are no longer supported/available, but can still be found if you search hard enough..

Additional registry tweaks

1. Disable Bluetooth disconnect notification

2. Place full date (MM/dd/yy) on top menu bar

3. Enable owner information (for software registration)

4. Disable Auto Screen lock

Other tweaks

(using SPB Pocket Plus)

1. Press-&-Hold Phone key: switches to Landscape mode and back

2. Press-&-Hold Back key: closes apps (mirrors kill App keypress in Android)

Wish-list for missing functionality

1. working Digital Compass and QuickGPS

2. Messages to lists recipients names/email addresses as I start to enter text in 'To:' field.

I'll try to update the above with links but I want to share my list ASAP and am keen to hear from others. My HD2 is pretty close to complete as far as I'm concerned. For anything else, Android (Gingerbread) is a click away on my microSD card :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mmm.333:
In the end I went for an external battery charger, and flashed via SD Card. I love WM 6.1, as it's really the closest thing to Windows CE 3/Handheld PC 2000 (as seen on devices like this - which I may get if I could use it as a phone...http://www.hpcfactor.com/reviews/hardware/hp/jornada728/) that we are likely to see on the HD2, although if I could cook a ROM for the HD2, since WM 6.1 has been done I would do 2003 just for the whole nostalgia!! Thanks for the apps list you posted I would like to add that TomTom and Garmin GPS software is good, but I don't know if posting links to warez is allowed (where are the forum rules?)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Bungee88:
I thought you needed a USB port to get HSPL (and Raido) updates onto the HD2. I was a big fan and user of the HP Jornada HPC. Bulky by today's standards but I remember using it with a Nokia D211 PCMCIA data card for wireless access. Good times!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] oldjarhead:

Still rocking Windows Mobile 6.1

I've finally gotten around to upgrading from the (very stable) v0.8.2 to v1.0 Final build for this wonderful ROM. Everything looks good.

Some observations & thoughts:

1. Digital Compass has been removed under 'Tools', which don't matter since it never worked.

2. A little disappointed that QuickGPS still doesn't work. The GPS itself still works great.

3. Still no contact name look ahead when entering recipient's name.

4. G-sensor still needs to be 'woken up' before use by programs that utilise it.

5. Opera Mobile 10 auto-rotation disabled by default. Update your registry if you want it (see below).

Overall still a very clean and very usable ROM. You should install and run HTC Connection Setup first to have your Telco's connection configured for your phone. I'd also recommend a couple of registry tweaks before use, namely the following:

1. Enable owner information (for software registration)

\HKLM\ControlPanel\Owner\ Hide > set value to "0"

2. Disable Bluetooth disconnect notification (which can't be dismissed)

HKCU\ControlPanel\Notifications\{607CDEA2-E44A-4528-A2C3-A7DC6B6D824D}\ Options > set value to "536870912"

3. Disable Auto Screen lock

HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\ DeviceLockWhenSuspend > set value to "0"

4. Enable Opera Mobile 10 auto-rotation

\HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\ModuleName\ Opera > set value to "\Program Files\Opera Mobile 10\Opera10-armv4i.exe"

\HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList\ Opera > set value to "OM10-ML-MainWndClass"

After which you can try it with these WM6 software that works well on your HD2. I love this ROM on my HD2.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Kefir.net:
Please, forgive me, that I'm not supporting ROM anymore..

But the user G.Goran from 4pda.ru found some solutions to your problems:

“Digital Compass” works fine, but you should install it by following next steps:

1. Perform Hard Reset.

(If you don’t want make Hard Reset you can try to skip this step, but in case Digital Compass will not work you should return and do this step first).

2. Get first CAB file: http://www.mediafire.com/?yyxbynyqzdz

3. Install it in Main Memory.

(DO NOT MAKE SOFT RESET AND/OR DO NOT RUN THIS APPLICATION AFTER INSTALL! It’s very important)

4. Get second CAB file: http://rapidshare.com/files/330857388/digital_compass.cab

5. Install it in Main Memory too.

6. Go to Program Folder and run “Digital Compass” application.

After than the program will ask you to make figure of eight in air. Do it and “Digital Compass” will work always right forever.

It’s a very strange because in my device QuickGPS works pretty good. See the screenshots.

And I don’t observe that my G-sensor needs “wake up” – for example several games runs right away.
