Does anyone know of any radar detection program for windows mobile 6 ?

I'm talking of the radar that traffic department use to detect you speed on the road. I know gadgets exist that detect the devices and give you early warning. iv'e heard the nokia phones have such a program, does anyone know if one exists for windows mobile phones ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] flaviopac:
Use TomTom or something similar....:rolleyes:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Trezona:
Tomtom only warns you about the permanent cameras, it does not detect radar, laser or "instant on" radar signals!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] raymerjacque:
Yes i am talking about the live instant radar devices. the guy standing on the side of the road with the radar cam.

NOT the permenent camara's.

I need the phone to beep and warn me when a radar device is in close proximity.

Oh God... you can't be serious...

Re the nokia phone, check here:

http://www.warp2search.net/contentt...ia_mobile_phone_as_a_police_radar_detect.html

It's been proven and proven again - it doesn't work... The only part of your phone I could see somebody trying to say would work is the IR receiver, but IR and RADAR are two ENTIRELY different things. And even if your phone could detect RADAR or Laser (which, again, none can) - you'd have to place the phone somewhere on your windshield to make it useful - and given the Hermes configuration, you'd have to have your phone horizontal... Even if it did work, I'd not want the thing sitting all goofy in my windshield.

With all due respect this is one of the goofier requests I've ever seen on here.

In other words - buy a radar detector... A half-way decent one can be had for under $60

I had no idea, that this joke from early GSM will resurface again in PDAs. The only other popular GSM lamer-tester I know about was Polish invention of "marupy zwrotne" ~ "return/confirmation marupas" (yes, it makes no sense in Polish neither, but sounds... dumb and probable at the same time).

Do you know of any other gossip/fake GSM/PDA services that were used to joke of not-so-bright users?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] linomaniac1:
Sorry, i think, that if you want to use the Hermes as radar detector, you can use it as microwave oven. The WiFi module works on 2,4 GHz like the oven too.

:p
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
Exactly - the cheapest microwave oven in the world:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
Check this out: People are making organizations to protect their communities/cities/sites from cell phone towers because microwaves are so dangerous. Not only those people organize themselves using cell phones... but also complain about GSM network problems in their areas. THIS IS REALLY ridiculous...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
Just the whole horror story about cell phone towers in residential places has no scientific basis at all. The same people scaremongering about this stuff are probably responsible for this one:

In scotland a plan to build a wind farm, 10 or so wind turbines, was refused due to concerns by the local community about the risk of radiation!?!?!?! WTF!!!!!

Besides the mobile phone<->tumor thing has been disproven many times by (independant) scientific study, the public always go along with these STUPID rumours.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
Of course it's stupid as hell. Why those people still use TV sets (after all CRT and plasmas are quite effective x-rays lamps), electric engine-based household devices (this is really powerful electromagnetic source) and microwave ovens (that in fact are causing problems with WLAN and some cell phone devices). And what about those electric cables in the walls? Slightly exaggerating those are giant antennas emitting 50/60Hz waves at very high power.

So if you (the reader, not mrvanx of course) are anti-cell phone tower activist, start with canceling you contract with company that delivers power to your house. Then we can continue talking.

the original point

regarding the RADAR guns that law enforcments use...

(i know about this i have 11 points on my license (3 have already come off once) and done the speed aware ness corse)

i do beleive they use a few different devices and on different frequancies, the devices you have in your car dont always detect the RADAR and they also change progressivly so you would need to keep buying the latests detectors... not to mention if you are speeding and your detector (even your phone is you got it to work (not likely)) picks up a signal and warns you... its already hit you the gun already knows how fast your traveling and its all too late!!

there are devices that emit a scramble frequancy and the copper will just get ERR on the gun but again they change the frequancy or method (lasers or RADAR) and your still boned and in UK if your caught with one of them you can then be prosicuted for preventing the corse of justice...

all in all its not worth it... the Tom Toms and the likes have notifacations for fixed cameras and 'black spots' were there is offten coppers park (this doesnt mean they wont change spots and they might never be there as you drive past but thought it was worth a mention)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Trashman:
Oh yea, and talking about hazardous environments we have to ban the Dyhydrogen Monoxide as it can be very dangerous for your health, you can die if you breath it.

Some facts:

Dihydrogen monoxide:

* is called "hydroxyl acid", the substance is the major component of acid rain.

* contributes to the "greenhouse effect".

* may cause severe burns.

* contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape.

* accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals.

* may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes.

* has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients.

Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used:

* as an industrial solvent and coolant.

* in nuclear power plants.

* in the production of styrofoam.

* as a fire retardant.

* in many forms of cruel animal research.

* in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical.

* as an additive in certain "junk-foods" and other food products.

And now after reading all that inform to your close ppl to fight this menace...but try to stop laughing be4 doing so...

I've just created this C++ program to make your Hermes work underwater, but it only works down to 33 feet or so. PM me if you want to try it.

Sorry...couldn't help myself ;-)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
I just read somewhere, that Hermes has a special feature, that will just turn the device off when you put it in water to protect it from short circuits and burning all the device. But I would like to test your software :)

Not a bad question

I don't think it's a goofy question...if he knew the answer, then there would be no point in asking...The last thing we need here is someone telling us what we can and can't ask based on their own knowledge (or perception of).....

When I read the question I though that maybe the bluetooth may have worked rather than infrared, or even the radio for the phone.... not such an outrageous idea

====================================
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
Because some people think it's not goofy, we can have so much fun. I'm sorry.

Ant this is exactly the fun. It's like saying that TV remote controller (let's say the one with LCD) can work as a Radar detector, or that you can disable it with LED torch. Want more examples? Hanging CDs on the mirror, or sticking it to the windshield (There is one car with CD installed like this on my street) to protect or (my personal favourite) killing fotoradars with light-reflecting spray...

To find out how stupid are those ideas are you need just a small bit of intelligence and google (hint: Wikipedia also helps). When you have basic knowledge over the technology, you can understand what is wrong with the idea. Up to this moment: we won't be able to explain it quickly to you (and you can think we are just hiding some higher knowledge) so all we can do it have some fun.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zeek112:
Radar is electromagnetic waves, bluetooth and the radio in your phone are RF which uses alternating electrical currents.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
That's not exactly true. All those devices use electromagnetic waves. Radio, TV, Radar, Bluetooth, Infrared, Lasers and so on are basically emitting/receiving such waves, just of different length (frequency): shorter in case or light, longer in case of microwaves.

Radars used in speed cameras can be based on microwaves or light (usually infrared lasers).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jamorgan2008:
Any one up for implementing/designing/developing a bluetooth radar detecting dongle? actually sounds like a cool project...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Toobs:
Google adsense has the answer (smart ass google!)

Now when you are approximately 10 meters from the radar you will be able to detect the copper and perform bluejack self defence ;)

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] IvorLongarrow:
Hi everybody,

I broke the screen of my Pixel 2XL.

In truth only the digitizer is broken but replacing only the digitizer seems impossible without proper tools.

I was searching for a screen replacement but they are really expensive!

Any suggestion on where to get it? I've read that there are compatible ones...

Do they worth the expense?

Where can I find theme?

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Wow! Anyway to just make the phone look like there is no damage and get a warranty exchange for it?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mantelio:
I have a cheaper alternative for broken screen. One day my phone flew out of my pocket at 100km/h on motorcycle, cause I like to save some bucks I found an original 2xl screen on aliexpress, there are some defected screens as they say, like couple pixels doesn't work or it has some imperfections. I took one for 70€ shipped, with 2 not working pixels that you almost can't see. They include tools to change it, but u need a seal. So if you don't mind imperfections it's really good way to save some money! I hope it helps someone.

The fingerprint reader on my Note 10+ is terrible!

I am on Android 10 already.

It already starts when registering a fingerprint. It constantly says "Press a little harder" when I'm already pressing my thumb right through the screen.

It got that bad after Samsung published the update after people found out their ****ty fingerprint sensor can be fooled by having a screen protector on.

Since then, my fingerprint sensor has been pretty much all but useless.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] helpme:
Correct me if I am wrong but I think my Diamond (bought from Hong Kong) support USA GSM network. Please see the attached picture, it shows UMTS8500+1900 + GSM850+1900 as an option in the phone setting manual.

I made this post because I saw many people complain that the first batch of Diamond doesn't support USA GSM bands but only the Asia and Euro one.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Oppainter:
Can u check al lines, mines is:

UMTS(900+2100)+GSM(900+1800)

UMTS(850+1900)+GSM(850+1900)

UMTS(800+2100)

UMTS(850+2100)+GSM(900+1800)

UMTS(850)+GSM(900+1800)

UMTS(1700)

Mine is working is USA!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Spawn12:
It may support those bands but it wont actually get you 3G access in America because the non American Diamonds are missing the 3G attenna. Its not a software problem but a hardware problem.

If you want to use 3G in America then wait till the American version of the Diamond is out.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] walshieau:
the bands being able to be selected means that the RIL (radio interface layer) CAN support those bands, that DOES NOT MEAN that your Phone Hardware can support it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] xwaiz:
The software interface is probably not smart enough to adjust itself to match hardware.

The HK Diamond hardware spec said it is a triband GSM phone. It does not have GSM850. I'm not sure if this is just a marketing / sales spec.

Anyone tested this in the US? Or any hardware/radio engineer on this forum to validate this spec?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] walshieau:
Well the HK Diamond Spec is incorrect, it "could" be quoting the US specs but the US version isnt out for another month at least.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] someone1234:
900/1800/1900, thats 3 bands = triband.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vector-SS:
I though this would be a good place to post this question.

I have the same bands listed as post # 2. Now my phone came out of the box like it is. No radio or rom upgrades, yet. Does that mean its Quad band unlocked already from the box? Or do I still have to load the latest radio?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] chribruu:
Hard to say without knowing wich radio you have.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Vector-SS:
My radio is 1.00.25.03, so I would assume it's not quad band without putting one of the newer radios?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] wfhowell:
triband TD

when i got my TD, it was listed a triband. I could still use in the USA because

ATT uses 900 band also. However, their primary band is 850. THe reception with the 900 only band was spotty. I then flashed my ROM (see below) and a new radio.....05 and immediately got 4 bars where i got 1 or none. MUch improvement. However, you will NOT get 3G until you get a USA phone. It uses Edge now, (which for me is fast enough). ITs a hardware think not a ROM or radio upgrade thing to get 3G.

BTW this is my current ROM and i am very happy with my TD now. Best phone ive ever had.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] RavenGirl:
So that makes me wonder why you haven't dumped the radio off the phone and let other people test it out. If in fact it is just a DIAM100 model with a modified radio to unlock the 850 gsm band.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stpete111:
That's 100% untrue.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stpete111:
The hardware he has is the DIAM160, not the DIAM100.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] RavenGirl:
I think that's the battery its self he was looking at. My battery model is diam160. I verified that by looking at my battery. I don't believe there is a diamond model of 160, just 100, 110 and 130. Before you continue to be rabid about the missing hardware, I don't believe it to be true either. Until the seller or the purchaser of the phone confirms the actual hardware model and/or a dump of the radio, I believe it to be all a hoax.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] stpete111:
You should see the foam coming from my mouth... I'm a rabid sum'*****! Just kidding, ok, you're right about the DIAM160 thing. Sorry about that. Possibly could be that he has the DIAM130, which is the Australian one. The auction ends in an hour though, so I wonder how quickly he would answer.

Guys, this phone is the real thing. I just updated with the SWIFTBL ROM (which don't has the Radio) and it is working just great. I was afraid to lose the 3G bands.
