i tried the sound settings for roaming too but no matter what i select the ringtone still is some different one which is not even listed/available under the managed list...

to be exact

i can not change any sound at all

why i started playing around there was primarily to disable the button press sound when dialing

but i cannot find any option to disable it

so yeah i can live with default ringtone and sms sound but i would like to disable everything else

Hey guys ...

Are you guys finding that the TreoPro's screen is a litte outdated. I know it's toughto understand what I mean, but it does not appear that it is a little washed out. Perhaps I am expecting too much cause i am comparing it to my omnia i900 from samsung, but am i the only one finding this? It would be nice if we could adjust colour/tint/contrast, might make it easier.

Any ideas?

[General Topics] Black93300ZX:
The pixel density is actually higher on the Treo Pro (40,960 pixels per inch) than it is on the Omnia (30,000 pixels per inch), so if anything it should look better... I'm not sure why yours looks washed out, and I don't have one myself so I really can't say more than the specs give me.
[General Topics] Diem:
Too bad. Thanks for looking into it tho !
[General Topics] ZonKnoZ:
the washed out impression might come from the default theme which is kind of greyish but noch true blac

i would recommend that you adjust the brightness of both devices to the same level using a comepletely white background

^^to measure the same intensity of the backlight you can use a digital camera on Av mode for example

point it at the screen and adjust the brightness level of the screen so that the exposure values match on both

after that view exactly the same picture on both screens (one of the default windows mobile pictures for example)

thic should allow a somewhat fair comparison

-------------------

btw. my sound problem existed from the beginning (the ringtone set up in the settings was NOT the one actually ringing)

now i of course have tons of third party apps

maybe lets wait till someone else with the german version shows up and confirms this

otherwise i will test it after making a full backup and hard reset...

for now i wil rest the case as the most important feature for me here ist the hardware switch to turn the sounds OFF so i do not really care about ringtones/sind notifications...

Loving my New Treo Pro!!!

The screen is GREAT outdoors. I use mine on my Motorcycle for MP3s and GPS and it is the best screen to date!!! The sun can hit it directly and I swear I can see it better than if the sun is not shining on it. I get a little reflection from the shiny finish, but I love it!

SPB Mobile Shell runs great on it too and is my interface of choice now.

I have heard of it for years but never REALLY gave it a chance because of the fact you could not (should not) restore after a ROM flash.

It is quite nice. I installed jetware and it made my device useless on bluetooth. Luckly I made a backup before hand so I hard reset and restored, DONE!

but what i am looking for is a remote control software which makes a remote control out of your smartphone using its infrared port

well it was a feature i was hoping for

but its my fault coz i could have researched a bit more first

lets hope there will be an update sometime...

btw.

does anybody use screen prtectors for its palm treo pro?

i would like to know and see what kind and how much of the screen area it covers

a photo would be nice

because i dont know if a screen protector which only covers the actual display would be so clever

i think it might come off that way when you put it in your pocket

the treo pro is just like the htc touch where the screen is flush so that a screen protector might easily come off on the edges i guess...

on the other hand i dont know if there are screen protectors which are shaped in such a way that the would cover lets say the whole glossy front part down to the d-pad...

its from an 800w, so it does not cover the whole thing, just the screen part.. works well.. does not look bad..

Does anyone know how to change the default "locked" mode when a call starts? For example, when I call voice mail, as soon as the voice mail answers, the screen locks. The only way to unlock it (that I've found) is to use the center button to move to the "unlock" button and then press the "Palm" button. Then, the screen is actived, I can display the keyboard and delete voice mail by pressing "7", etc. I guess I understand why the default is "lock" - so you won't "press" keys while talking on a call. But it's very inconvenient to "unlock" the phone when in a call.

Palm "Special Sauce" add ons

Folks,

I am probably in a minority, but I can't stand plain-old Windows Mobile's phone screen and dialler - I much preferred the Palm flavour as found on hte Treo 750. If you're of the same mind, then the good news is that I have managed to install the "activecall", "speeddial" and "Dial lookup" plugins and have them working. I have also installed the RealVGA add-in and now have a phone that looks and behaves like a souped-up treo 750 with a 320x320 screen.

I can't remember step-by-step what I've had to do, but I'm more than happy to help anyone who wants to try and replicate this.

Give me a shout if you want ...

Im a happy Treo pro owner now, but does anyone know a working media player? Because CPMP doesnt work on min. Even the new 0.81 or something it gives an error.
[General Topics] ZonKnoZ:
tcpmp does not work here either

i tested different versions also with forcehighres...

but good news is that coreplayer 1.2.5 (coreplayer.com )

works perfectly (watched big bang theory episodes with it and it had no problems with the bitrate even while the openenig credits if you know what i mean)

i did tweak it a litte and can post my config if someone needs it

but coreplayer should work in any case without problems

also for those folks using the treo pro as an mp3 player:

mortplayer has problems with the screen and the display gets tiny and corrupted

i finally switched to pocket tunes (pockettunes.com)

this player really rocks hard!!!!

i must say that the audio quality of the audio out on the treo pro really is damn good (i compared it with several mp3players like the ipod touch, iphone sansa and zen with sennheiser headphones and i must say the sound quality is just brilliant)

for those who do not want to go through the whole thread here

as i already mentioned before:

the audio skipping every minute can be avoided by turning off the screen saver clock in the system settings

(if you do not believe me just listen to some music while the screen is off and the clock changes minutes :)

What do you guys think of the Treo Pro so far? It looked like a kick ass phone, but I haven't had the chance to put my hands on it. Thoughts?
[General Topics] lcohen999:
HIGHLY recommended.

HD and hi-res phones aside, this phone is exactly what WM phones should be.

No flipping for that keyboard (gets tired after a while) fast, great battery life and really good screen.

I am using realVGA at 96dpi and the screen is crisp and clear.

It doesn't have all the advanced bells and whistles that some of the new offerings are, but as a day to day phone (I do 100+ calls and emails / day) this is the way to go.

I'm just waiting for slingbox to update the player to properly support 320x320

a while ago i was asking about screen protectors for the treo pro

please go here and check the third photo in the review

as you can see there is obviously a screen protector that covers the entire upper front

does anybody here have exactly the same protector?

if yes, tell me please what brand and wehre you have bought it because i want one which covers the treo the same way and noit just the screeen area
[General Topics] ZonKnoZ:
after some research i found exactly ONE screen protector which actually shows the shape of the screen protector

http://www.expansys.de/p.aspx?i=174219

unfortunately brando and 3m just state that their protector "fits" the treo pro but do not show how

i would be still interested about some feedback

especially because it would cost me 26€(with shipping) to buy this on expansys which is ridiculous

Honestly, where's the consistency here? I'm used to the mods spinning the line that forums for popular devices (e.g. i780) won't happen because they're not made by HTC. No issues with that, it's a black and white principle that everyone understands.

But then when a popular device comes along like the Pro which is designed and manufactured by HTC, we're told that it won't get a forum because there isn't the interest, no matter how many people ask?

Smacks of the mods making there own rules up as they go along to me. What a superb way to drive people away.

i wanted to give, all you guys who read the whole thread and saw some of my bugs listed, an update:

I did a hard reset on my treo pro because aufter not being able to change my ringtones, the phone finally stopped ringing and vibrating completely!

After the hard reset the palm customisation/configuration ran in two stages with each requiring a reset after completion

i did this with my sim card being inserted

now i can change ringtones

everything works fine and now i have the costomized missed cally screen and my screen locks during calls finally!

i guess the first time whan i turned on my treo and the suctomization scripts ran i had no sim inserted and maybe something went wrong and the scripts didnt complete their work cactually

right now i finally can enjoy the fully functional and working palm optimized windows mobile!

I have ordered a S740. It tales pretty long and I'll change try to change the order to the Palm Pro or HP 914c monday.

Why?

- Time. (Current phone is falling apart)

- Higher resolution on the Palm

- Touch screen on the Palm

- Keyboard is on the front (Durable)

It'll be nice to have a separate Palm Pro part in this forum....

hi

wanted to report back on the screen protector i ordered here

http://www.overlayplus.com/DE/dis_product.asp?model=Palm_ProTreo&modeln=Treo Pro&prod_type=screen

it took them one week to arrive from hong kong to germany which is pretty quick

the packaging was sefe enough and attaching them on the treo pro was very easy (i aligned the protector on the bottom part and went upwards while applying)

it is really perfectly fit and completely clear

even though it fits the front plate of the treo pro perfectly you actually can see the edge of the protector which does not look super perfect but still it is a small downside on the fact that you have your screen protected

i would recommend this protector

i will report how it behaves after a few days of living in my pocket
