CM7 uses ADW launcher, while Deck's uses the stock GB one. You may be able to find a GB launcher on market but I have seen terrible results with this.

Other option is to try out Deck's! I am a big advocate for it, runs flawlessly for me. Also, SalvageMod and OMGB have the same launcher.

Seriously, have you changed anything to market? I was having this issue with the new version of market. Heard the updater was borked.

Also, try un-installing and DL off market fresh

[HTC Desire S] KennyG9:
Hi everyone,

My car has a bluetooth chip inside, but it only works when someone calls me or when I call someone. The BT chip of my car is recognized by my phone as an "headphone device" or something like that.

So I would like to find an app which fakes that the phone is receiving a call or that I'm calling someone so that I can listen to my music using BT.

Obviously, all that app such as call faker don't do the trick because they are just a sort of skin which is absolutely not faking a call the way I mean it.

Do you know that kind of app or any method to do so ?

Thanks,

KennyG9
[HTC Desire S] olyloh6696:
i know what you mean, but there is no way that could happen sorry . (no app exist to date as far as i know)

you need what is called a a2dp bluetooth car set. that will let you stream music. (i have one)

other than that i'm afraid your out of luck.

but you could try buying the IO Bluetooth car kit (the one i have)

works well!
[HTC Desire S] KennyG9:
Oh, that's a shame :) .

Anyway, I'm going to take a look a bit more about A2DP, but I guess that I will not have enough motivation to buy one (and continue listening to music with my ooooold CD Player \o/ ).

So thanks for your answer Oly,

If someone else can help me in any other way, I stay tuned on this topic, even if it seems to be difficult.

[HTC Desire S] mikep1993:
Perhaps this would be possible if someone writes an app which uses the "phone line" not sure how it is called and how I should describe it in english.

But if you make an app which has a sound output you can tell it the type like navigation, music, call...

I am not sure if that does it, but someone could try?

Perhaps I could write a small app which plays one song to the call channel fit test purposes?

I have no headset or anything similar.
[HTC Desire S] :
Tasker to the rescue! Just tried the following profile in Tasker, and it worked how you want:

New task: Prank

Call my home number (+ auto dial)

Wait 5 seconds

End call

I then create a tasker widget, and point it to this profile. Now when ever I press this widget, it dials my home number for 5 seconds then hangs up.

Tasker ain't free, or easy to get used to, but it's incredibly powerful. I think it has a trial period. Check it out.
[HTC Desire S] KennyG9:
Thanks for answer wnp, but I don't really understand in which way it's supposed to help me, because Tasker is really calling someone and really ending the call. Anyway, I tried it and it didn't worked because when Tasker is launching the call, the BT headphone of the car activates (ok), it rings, and end the call (stopping BT headphone in the car) 5 seconds later. It works exactly as if I had really done it with my hand. Or maybe I didn't understood well what you explained ?

Thanks anyway,

KennyG9

Try AutomateIt or Llama. AI has a bluetooth trigger option, eg start an app (music) and it will trigger bluetooth and you can set bluetooth to default connect to a specific source.
[HTC Desire S] princeasi:
Ok I downloaded automateit but how would I set this up with my car stereo Bluetooth? As the same with the OP in the 1st post, I don't have a streaming option, but I can make calls, and it is only while i'm on a call i'm able to play and hear other audio sources such as Pandora, mp3, etc on my phone. How can I fake a call, so that I trigger the Bluetooth to activate with this app?

I'm just sayin!
[HTC Desire S] newrad67:
You can use an app called BTmono in the market for this. It can stream all audio from your device to your car reciever. But the streaming is only in mono because your car's bluetooth works like a mono headset.

[HTC Desire S] princeasi:
Ok I appreciate the help offered but the suggestions is not suitable for the problem. The problem that we're having is that the car audio headset don't have an option to stream audio from a Bluetooth device, but will allow calls thru Bluetooth.....if I have a connected call from my phone to my car audio headset, only then is when I can stream other audio formats from my phone, but once the call is disconnected, then I went be able to. So once again, are there any apps that can fake a call to initiate the Bluetooth as an incoming call so that I can stream audio from my phone??

I'm just sayin!
[HTC Desire S] newrad67:
I also have a Jabra headset and can only stream audio when there is a call. It should be working as same. As I said, BTmono can stream all audio on the connected bluetooth device. Have you tried it first?

Sent from my HTC Desire S
[HTC Desire S] princeasi:
Yes I did try btmono, but I didn't see anything within the app that would allow to fake a call. Unless i'm overlooking. Maybe you can instruct how?

[Post found via google]

Sip applications such as sipdroid do change phone state. and SIPDROID is a SOFTWARE-ONLY SOLUTION. we just need a software that would make a dummy call...

I have an app called Call Reminder and when it triggers I know the phone is actually on a call state

I'v personally tried btmono and the other one and both failed for me. [not desire though].
[HTC Desire S] Igi0815:
On my windows Mobile phone for this i use an app that routes all audio output to Bluetooth

[HTC Desire S] xstrake:
BTMono or Fake call

I've been digging the internet for a similar solution and stumbled upon a few pages.

BTmono or any of the myriad of other applications should work from what i read. It simply routes the music audio stream to headset/headphone audio (the one that's used for a call) which is compatible with a mono-bluetooth headset or in your case the non-A2DP car bluetooth. This is essentially what you suggested, by placing a fake call.

playstore - play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bedoig.BTmono

The other more interesting option (i like to avoid having an app if the task can be done simply otherwise) is to call the 2 second pause function from the dialer. There's a thread about this over at this other forum. It describes the 2 second pause as a double star **. However i figured in my Nexus 4 the 2 second pause is simply a comma (,).

forum link - androidforums.com/motorola-droid/16849-audio-other-than-calls-bluetooth-headset.html#post122894

I haven't tried either as I left my mono-bluetooth at work today. Will try both out tomorrow and post my results. Both seem like plausible solutions.
[HTC Desire S] princeasi:
Btmono seems the only one to have worked.

Steam music over Bluetooth for phone only setups

I've solved this problem but you need two phones. Connect a phone to Bluetooth in your car, use another phone to call you, answer the call and on the other phone press hold. You can now stream music on any of the apps on the Bluetooth phone until you hang up the call. I found this out when someone left me on hold for a period of time. Using Tidal high fidelity the sound is amazing in my 2006 Range Rover

[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
It's been a bad experience the past day and a half. I manage to successfully root my 3D but when I finally rebooted it kept bootlooping Everytime it managed to get to the hands free activation window. So after trying little things to fix it, I finally decided to back up and restore. When I restored and rebooted it just hung at the splash screen. Which basically meant there was no system data on it (thanx clockwork)<sarcasm. So I then decide to download a RUU from my girls hero (only internet available) but the downloads keep failing. By me being able to get into the bootloader I didnt make it a big deal and called it a night. When I awoke I saw that viperboy released a Rom so I downloaded on my girls hero, swapped the sd cards back and now it won't boot into the bootloader. I'm stuck and frustrated because it was just booting into hboot yesterday and I haven't touched it since then. So what do you guys think its a brick. Or can I do something to fix this.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
if you can't get into hboot what does it do, fruit loops still? Maybe it gets far enough into the boot process that you can issue fastboot commands. I would try to make fastboot reboot into boot loader and flash the image via fastboot. Timing would likely be key to issue the command from your computer....and that is all predicated on fastboot being able to do what you have not--get into hboot.

Have you tried battery pull before trying to get into the bootloader?

EDIT: Yeah, I think it's fixable.
[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
It gets as far as the splash screen because remember I stated that clockwork tweeked out and didn't properly backup my system. So I had to download a Rom from another phone to flash but now it won't boot into bootloader. When I try to charge after a battery pull the light goes on then off. Then if you look closely enough you could see a a very soft red led blinking when holding the power button down. It turns on and goes to the splash but it won't boot into bootloader. I mean if it was bricked it wouldn't even come on.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
have you tried wiping everything?

also, my phone sometimes does that weird soft blinking thing....just hold the volume down and do not let that go....press the power button, if it doesn't turn on or does the blinking thing (which only happens to me when plugged in or shortly after unplugging) press the power again, and again.....never letting up on the volume-down. It took me a while to figure that one out and it definitely kept me out of the bootloader for the first couple days I have the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
Wow, thanks that work like a charm. Dude I thought it was all over. I was just about to smash the screen and pay a deductible.

The phone connects fine to my computer when it is on, and until recently also while in download mode. However I do not know what happened after I updated the kernel that it does not recognize my phone when using odin.

The one listed for in the wiki is ver. 1.3.450.0 and the version I found is ver. 1.3.800.0.

I hope that this will help others who have issue with the drivers for there phone. I am on Win7 ultimate as well.

I've been asking for this question for sometime, but maybe here I can get an answer.

The thing is that I do like this piece of hardware, but WP7 is just not working for me. It feels to me like I have a phone that is limited only to functions that I could have with 10 year old phone, or like having NOKIA 1400.

It's locked phone, limited to basic phone-mail-facebook functions. Apps are rubbish.

Instead of WP7, having WM 6.x on this phone would be great. So, is there a way to downgrade to WM 6.x?

Well DA! I do know that HD2 is native WM6, but if it is manageable for HD2 to switch from one to another, than similarity in some aspects do exist. I do refer to that similarity as a starting point for downgrading form WP7 to WM6.x.

Can a fact that it is possible to upgrade from WM to WP help in developing it's downgrade?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lathera:
the only way to do that is if the bootloders on wp7 devices are hacked and modefide to acsept difrent os's

but i think you need to stay with this device a litle longer

imho it has the best UI for a mobile device out there

as for the apps that will come in time...

for exsample all i ever wanted from wp7 was a proper multy protocol messenger and now we have it :D IM+ rocks

also as soon as mango hits you wont be complaining as much cos most of the apps will be getting more functionality then the other oses put together... and i dont even want to know what MS has in store for the next upgrade

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Like lathera said, it's a bootloader thing. HD2 has HardSPL, which is a hacked bootloader that allows flashing of unsigned ROM's. Plus it has a user made bootloader over that to allow flashing of ROM for other OS's. The bootloader is highly tied into the OS. It's not to say it can't happen, it'd just take a developer(s) to complete these tasks to make it possible.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Relief2010:
Windows Phone 7 is not for people who like to keep on playing, flashing with their devices. I have Android now and thats all you do. You waste your time with playing around (launchers, custom roms etc) and one day you get tired of it. I just want an OS that works and not an OS that i have to tweak to make it work.

If you want Windows Mobile 6.5 you have to get an HD2. Good luck with that and soon you will realize how crappy it is.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iconata:
i just cant understand how can u preffer windows mobile 6.5 over windows phone 7.. hell.. the support on windows mobile 6.5 is till tomorrow.. and besides i doubt that anyone would want to develop a bootloader to run 6.5. that OS is so "past tuesday" it's and old thing that will remain only on pocket pc (like my Motorola Symbol).. which has 6.1 by the way, and it lack simple fuctionality like kinetic scrolling.. not the mention the SUPER UGLY interface.. but afterall it's your choice..
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mendoza1:
Yes, I do realize that WM is so last Friday. But feeling is claustrophobic when running WP7, it is all locked up.

I do consider to switch to HD2, but in the mean time there is no harm in asking around about future prospects for WP7.

There are a number of things that I miss in WP7, and it made me to consider switching back to the WM6. The moust obvious reasons are numerous apps that became essential over the time for me, settings that could be changed, smartphone dial, file explorer, support for various file types (not just basic multimedia extensions)... Don't see what is last Tuesday in that, mate.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MOster:
I'm running the latest Mango beta and it is much more functional; but it still seems to me that this platform is more about social networking than enterprise tasks.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B4PJS:
No, that is for only flashing WP7 roms.

To get WM6.5 you would need the equivalent of MAGLDR on the HD2. Just get yourself an HD2 and then play with WM6.5, Android and WP7. Hardware is just as good as any wp7 handset.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mendoza1:
It's nice to see this topic alive, again.

Thanks everyone for the answers. It has been a while since this topic gave me hope for a better future if WP7 devices, but as time went by I have switched back to Windos Mobile 6.x device. It is a shame that this OS was, and is, a dissapointment, for me. Hardware that WP7 devices have, although exellent by all means, was shadowed by ill-made OS on the epic scale. I have enjoyed surfing the inernet on 7 PRO, but it was only that that was made for a highest grade, everything else (about software) was, and is, pure rubish.

Now, I have HD2, and although I miss real keyboard, I can manage to do my daily tasks as usual. Internet surfing experience is about 1/4 better on 7 PRO, but: Images on HD2 are better resolution (yes 7 PRO has 5MP camera, but it is far behind HD2s), much more programs and tools on standard ROM (which I use the most, and there for need), better file management, etc.

I do hope that it would be possible to install programs on to WP7 device, or, better yet, to have WM6 on WP7 device for it's own benefit. As the euphoria started with relasing WP7, on the start, and WP7 devices could be purhased anywhere, now the picture is all different, it is very hard to find a store with WP7 device.

And, for the conclusion, knowing WP7 and WM6, I wouldn't migrate to WP7 at all.

Best of all to ya!

Marry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobzero:
Long time Windows 6x user here who made the switch to WP7. Personally, I can't imagine I would ever go back to 6x at this point.

Sure there are many features I do miss from 6x:

-Easy to use, built in ICS (usb, bluetooth)

-Bluetooth support for many profiles (DUN, PAN, SPP, ect)

-Compatibility with WinCE software (igo Primo)

-Notification LEDs for missed calls, new messages, ect.

-Re-programmable hardware buttons

-RDS from FM radio (TMC traffic)

-Native Google maps app (with street view)

-IN CALL VOICE RECORDING

and I do miss all of these features, but WP 7 just does everything else so much better that it is worth the trade off for me (just my opinion based on my own usage patterns). I feel that most of these features will return at some point over the next year or two, and I can live with that.

That being said, I wouldn't mind having options to go back to 6x on my WP7, options are always nice :)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mendoza1:
Yes, I do agree with you, WP7 does a some things better but lacks a lots of basic features that I, over the time, realy need and like.

So switching from WP7 to WM6.5, and vice versa, feels good. It's too bad that WP7 devices are not able to do this, I think that they wolud be much more attractive for people that are looking for better hardware and powerful software, powered by apps that are on the market for a number of years for WM, Symbian, Android (it's about 10 apps that everyone has/had), it would stop me from going back to WM6.5.

My guess is: WP7 is the future, but it was relased to early. It is still in the Stoneage, considering it's current stage and coparing it to its, today, rivals on the market (WM, Symbian, Android, IPhone). The only thing to do now is to sit and wait, for a year or two, and thats it.

For unlocked WP7 ROM little interface enables native WM6 applications working (see code differences in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20161731). Now, too much work is necessary for all of them one by one. May be, in future universal interface will be occured.
