I use S2U2 and have used it for a long time on my Mogul. I never had the issue until I got my Tilt. But when I get phone calls, there is a + in front of the number, and it displays the "1" and the area code, and full number, all in one long line without any seperations. If I change the phone number display in S2U2 it counts the + and the 1 as didgets and messes everything all up. So it seems to be something inside the Tilt that is making it put the + and the 1 in there. I looked in the regional settings, but there is nothing there.

Any ideas? TIA

Removing "Dead" Links from Today Menu

Thanks MUCHO!!

I have another one for you that I can't seem to figure out or find material on - I need help in how to search for it mainly - I ain't lazy..

After a horrible afternoon from either bad flashes to Dutty's new 4/1 rom and SDconfig errors with disappeating .cabs I have a working device that is "sort of" what I want... ahhhhhhhh...

Now to the point... I had to manually install cabs (joy now the ATW spoiled us..) and accidently started a reinstall on "Weather Watcher" - when it caught it, I canceled. Since I had already installed it AND selected it as a Today Menu item, it then showed me a "blank" icon for the program. I tried to start it and it crashed (prog, not phone)...

I reinstalled the CAB and the Weather Watcher is working fine (from an alternate location, I guess??) but I have that "blank" (dead) icon in the Today Menu.

On the selection of Today Menu, it has both Weather Watchers available but the "dead" one checked. When I try to uncheck it, it gives an error message and will not allow. Now I have a useless slection in the start menu - ugly too!

I know ZIP about reg edits - is this where I start??

If this doesn't make sense, I can send screen shots after I finished my final sync...

Thanks for ANY tips or pointers and THANKS for all those don't say it enough!

Ringer not working correctly

After searching through the forums I've come across users who have an issue with NO sound .. however this is not my case.

My external sound does work, and even when I do receive a call the ringer starts for maybe .5 seconds then stops, as if it hiccups and dies. This happens with every ringer I assign to the ring tone.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to fix this annoying problem?

OZ instant Messaging Error

I've searched and searched and cannot find the answer, so posting here in case anyone can point me in the right direction.

Using: Tilt w/ WM6, only added QuickMenu, FtouchFlo, SCLPF, HTC Home Customizer, Total Commander, SKTools

Issue: Getting exception errors when trying to open OZ Instant Messaging.

Exceptioncode 0x80000002

It gives me two options "Cancel" or "Debug", both do nothing.

Thanks for any advice you can provide me.

I need help with mi Tilt

I have problems: does not work the speaker or the microphone. I do not know why...

Battery was drained, was shut down and when i turn it on again (with the full load on battery) the speaker did not work...

Uh, Doug...

Just an FYI, AT&T's Tilt ROM is quite nice if you stop the customization.

I've found it to be stable, not a single lock-up in 3 weeks. Performance is good, quite zippy in fact.

No I have not flashed one of the HTC Roms but then I've not really felt the need to.

A thread addressing AT&T Tilt should not just say "FLASH the HTC ROM or a cooked ROM", that is not addressing Tilt issues.

Also, XDA-Devs is about each user getting the best experience they can from their device. For some of us that means flashing a cooked ROm but in many cases I would strongly recommend against flashing anything other than your Carrier Rom. Take the newbies you speak of, wouldn't it be safer for them to simply learn to stop the customization for the time being. That would get them in a beter position without having to worry about voiding their warranty. SOme of them will be fine there and the others have bought themselves time to read about flashing etc.

The last thing XDA is would be a community of one solution (i.e. Flash a cooked Rom). There are many road to happiness and XDA-Devs walks down them all.

MOD & ADMIN Decision on TomTom Taster Edition

Here goes guys (and gals)....

We will allow the taster edition (as it was passed out freely) to remain here until such time as TomTom requests we remove it.

NO OTHER VERSIONS OF TOMTOM will be allowed. So if we find Version 6.0, 6.03 etc we will pull the post and warn the user about posting WAREZ.

MAP FILES CAN NOT BE POSTED, this is includes how to find them on the internet.

I hope that clears up the issue for everyone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
I also originally did the soft-reset technique, but then I started flashing, and wooah is it soooo much faster. Kyphur, I would be more than glad to start supporting AT&T ROM questions if people ever cooked AT&T ROMS...

I understand that a lot of people have no need to flash their device, but just look at some of the additional features you can get with a cooked ROM for the kaiser now (i.e. any work that duttythroy or austinyc has done) and it's a no-brainer.

I'll take down the "doesnt support ATT ROM questions" at the top of the thread, but I just cannot help with that currently, and I invite all who can help to please contribute, because if you have seen so far, not one of the ongoing issues has been addressed by ANYONE yet.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gadgetluva:
You're getting a quite bit defensive about a problem that you can't fix. In regard to being a "newbie," I've flashed a variety of phones to ROMS i've found here on these great forums on my 8125 and two different 8525s. It's not that I don't want to do it, in my experience I found that there are alot of problems that come with cooked ROMs, especially THIS early in the game.

And here's something that i found strange - what's the point of making a thread to "address ALL TILT-specific questions" if everyone flashes their rom to a TyTN II based rom? Then there would be NO use for this thread at all.

If you don't know the answer then fine. No need to get your panties in a bunch over it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gadgetluva:
GREAT thanks! Very simple fix. BTW, in some of my testing, I found that KaiserTweak was causing some issues, so I prefer to do all registry edits on my own. It might take a bit longer, but IMO, it seems safer and more stable. Thanks again!

Tilt and Outgoing Caller ID

Under the Phone Settings/Services if you click Caller ID and get settings there is a option to only show caller id to your contacts. I've been using this with mixed results, some in my contacts it will show caller id and some it won't. Even with contacts that it has previously show them to it will sometimes not show them my caller id. Has anyone else tried this and have any better results?

I have a qestion on my 8925, it doesnt matter use whice soft, gps viewer, beeline gps, the flash light never turns to green, which means it did not started.

does anyone knows how to launch the gps? I run quick gps download every day, so really confused about it.

thank you any one can help me on this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
Actually, the light should be flashing orange...try using another gps tracking program for your Tilt...there are a ton on the web, but I have DEFINITELY seen them floating in the threads. Look and you should find...my only other advice would be to make sure its on COM4...

This is not really a tilt question though, because this is a GPS question that would pertain to all variants of the Kaiser, not a Tilt question...the issue has nothing to do with you owning a Tilt rather than a TyTn II, so I'm not posting this up front.

I also hope that next time you think about the type of question you're asking (since there are definitely threads in the forum devoted to this issue). Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] greg3d:
No worries on doing them manually. I do the same often. Kaiser Tweaks is great because you can simply download the XML file, and view it to see what the tweaks are and do them manually.

thank you doug

I am searching again and again, so happy to see the tilt thread here, that's the reason i post here.

you are right, the flashing is orage, but why beelink gps and gps viewer could not make it work? that's my question.

Also, before test those two gps tools, i got tester version of TT, and also got map of us, total 1.4G(if allowed, i will post link only by others upload at internet, if not allowed, I will give the link to whom PM me) but TTcould not find gps singal, it always say invalid signal. on this site, i saw lots people said working on their kaiser, that's the reason: 1 the tt only working on kaiser not tilt, 2 i want to make sure my gps is working.

do you think i have to flash the rom? that's also hard work for me, still afraid to do it.

hidden proxy

so not only are there cabs to remove and restore the hidden proxy but there are also cabs for disable proxy and restore proxy. Is it better to remove them all? What benefit is there from leaving them in? Does turning off the proxy in the settings do the same thing as disabling it through the cab?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Deathace:
Doug: To try and address issue #4 myself I have been in contact with HTC to see if the base OS/Rom is capable of doing this and according to their support department there are currently no ways either in the registry or otherwise with the current versions about to change the use of the buttons to include long press for any other than end key & button6.

As much as most people are aware you can use AE Button Plus which the support person said is the only current way to change their behaviour with the double/triple push options, alas I do not want to have to resort to using that for a little more functionality (and to have to remember what each extra push is going to do) so as yet unless someone rewrites the firmware to include hardware - software triggers for the individual buttons we are as they say "**** out of luck"

hope this helps

As a new user, I would love to behave well. You guys have posted a lot of valuable stuff.

You forget, though, how hard it is to figure out the right places to look and exactly how to be a good member. I've tried to read the "must read" files, and they do help. But it's still very hard to know how to find the topic you're looking for when so many terms are new and the ordering of the messages is a little hard to figure out at first.

Actually, I don't care that much as long as I get what I want - and I figure the best way to do that is to annoy you all as little as possible. Maybe a few newbies clues posts would be worth duplicating to guide people back to the FAQs and help posts no matter where they light? Took me a bit to realize what "sticky" meant.

Thanks for all.

How loose is your tilt?

The slider on my tilt seems loose (to me) the guy at the ATT store said it was normal (although they didnt have one for me to comapre. When i press on the screen, there is definately a small amount of 'bounce' in the top portion of the slider as well as some 'wiggle'. The phone doesn't open on me accidentally as it does take some light force to completely open the slider but it just feels a little loose.

Wondering what others experience is?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kyphur:
Been busy the last couple of day but felt this deserved a response (neither good nor bad just a response).

I've been flashing cooked Roms since I had a Blue Angel. My Wizard & Hermes both saw more cooked Roms than I could count. In fact I put up the first real Hermes WM6 Cooked Rom. Don't get me wrong, I fully support using cooked Roms. What I don't agree with is telling someone that the end-all solve-all is a cooked Rom.

Having cooked Wizard & Hermes Roms the "Hard" way, I'vae already decided that I'll wait for a Kaiser Rom Kitchen so I can easily cook a good AT&T Rom. 2 things that I want to do first: 1) Removed the Cabfiles for the bloatware I don't install. 2) Shrink OS file to increase avaliable memory.

Thank you for that, I've seen already that some users have stepped-up and provided these answers.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MHC48:
I believe they basically do the same thing. If you get the remove and restore cabs, you'd have to leave them somewhere so that you can navigate over to them with File Explorer and first run/install the "remove" cab and then later run/install the "restore" cab.

The other way leaves a small app in Programs which you "run" to disable the proxy. When done, you run the other applet.

Both do the same thing but the second is marginally easier to use.

You'd probably want to keep the ability to have the proxy sometimes if you like AT&T the Media Net website perhaps other places or reasons too.

I finally got my hands on the Tilt, and have some experience flashing ROMs on my old 8525, but I have a question about getting rid of the bloatware.

I have to use Bb Connect for work, but want to reset my device to get rid of many of the extras I don't want. Is there a way of know what will be gone and what will remain? For instance, knowing I'll have to reinstall bb Connect, will the "Get Blackberry" icon remain? What about some of the games etc?

On a similar note, does anyone else who uses Bb Connect with the Unlimited Bb Data plan have issues getting Cellular Video to work?

Thanks, and sorry if I missed the answers to these somewhere!:rolleyes:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
dunno about the BB Connect questions, but I can tell you that doing the soft reset during config WILL get rid of BB connect, as well as every other ATT add-on/crap. Too tired to update front of thread now, will do sometime later this week.

Does anyone know if there has been any update on Tilt-specific information regarding YouTube and other streaming video issues? I've tried every suggestion on these boards and so far nothing has worked. I'm running a soft-reset bloatware-free AT&T ROM with SPB Pocket Plus.

I've tried installing HTC Streaming Video, TCPMP, Core Player, FLV Bundle, and Adobe Flash Player and I always encounter video format issues. Orb streaming works so I really don't understand why YouTube doesn't. I'm having trouble figuring out if this is a PIE problem, a codec problem, or both. Links and/or comments appreciated, thank you.

Line 2 facility - help please!!!!!!

I have recently spoken to HTC (uk) and asked them if their device the kaiser (p4550, Tilt, Vario III, etc) supports a Line 2 sim card offered by Orange, Cingular, and a few other MSP's.

They advised me that it's not that the phone wont support it, it's that WM6 was never made compatible, where as smart phones were given that little bit more, and works.

Seeing how so much has been done since this phones release has anyone looked into this little puzzle that has been left by microsoft, HTC, or the MSP.

Answers on a post card please...

My best advice would be (as bad as it sounds) to reflash the ROM again...this seems to be the fix 99% of the time when people are having problems with the GPS. If anyone else would like to think of another option (since the port 4 suggestion has already been used), feel free.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jim_R:
I've heard AE Button Plus works great with Kaisers, but wanted to toss out that Vito Button Mapper also enables push and hold functionality for the standard buttons (not PTT button) using the Start, Settings, Button Mapper. Also allows for customization of the soft buttons based on running application. Got to say that while Vito Button Mapper works, it's not that WM6 Pro friendly. In other words it works, but has some issues with icon display and uninstall. Just pointing this out in the hopes that HTC support will get their act together.

3g in Denver

Ordered my Tilt on 11-2 and found out the same day that 3G is now functioning in metro Denver and front range cities - I only found out because I hunted for it - you'd think AT&T would brag about it, notify customers, etc. - but I received nothing, and saw no local news about it.

Another reason to use MEdiaNet proxy, sometimes . . .

Also if you want to send MMS my understanding and personal experience is that you have to do it through the MEdiaNet proxy.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
Fortunately, I can confirm this is not true. If you are using a non-ATT ROM on your Tilt, after you have done the service provider autoconfig and restart the phone, go to the settings for your MMS server (messaging --->menu (rt softkey) ---> tools ---> options --->MMS-->servers tab), and make sure you have ATT MMS as default. That should fix it.

I posted this somewhere else, but I see this is the "official" tilt thread, so I'll put it here too:

Hello-

I'm new to Windows Mobile (I've been on Palm OS for at least 5 years) and I have AT&T Tilt (8925).

I've been playing around with it for a while, and there's still some things I have questions on-

1)How do I complete remove some programs that I do not want and don't appear under "Remove Programs"? I know they're located in the Windows folder, but I get a Error 5 whenever I try to delete them- I think they're read-only or something... Is there a way to do this without hard-reseting?

2) I'm also having problems with the GPS receiver. At times it will work great, acquiring a signal in seconds, and other times it won't work at all, searching for a long time to find nothing. I use Live Search and Google Maps and have the same problem with both... Any ideas?

3) Coming from Palm OS, I'm used to text messages coming up in a view. Is there a way to change that?

4) I modified my PTT button to work as any program. Is there a specific registry key I can set it to so that it acts as a power button?

5) I use gmail and I'm using their IMAP service. Some of my messages are appearing blank when downloaded. Was I supposed to change settings or something? Why does it only work for some and not others?

6) How do I disable the sound on the 3G start-up splash screen for AT&T?

7) And last but not least, does anybody have any good mod/util programs to recommend? I've already got a few like KaiserTweak, but I was wondering if there were any other good ones I should know about.

Thanks for your help
