Thanks for the help.

My Documents are all on the memorycard. Well, except the "my documents" that are put per default on the P3300, so let's say my REAL documents are on the card. :)

Concerning the programs, unfortunately those I have installed hadn't any possibilities to be installed on the card (except for some program's extensions, like for example TomTom's maps).

So after this my choices are pretty limited. :(

But thanks anyway that someone has tried his best. :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] dontpannic:
Install big programs to the memory card instead of the storage memory.

With meschle's Artemis Touch 4.02 full with no cube, TomTom installed amongst other applications (Phone's been on for two days with Tomtom running and activesync:

Storage:

Total: 46.22MB

In use: 14.01MB

Free: 32.20MB

Program:

Total: 50.86MB

In use: 32.65MB

Free: 18.21MB

After using Oxios Hibernate, the Free program memory has gone to 22.46MB free.

Download Oxios Memory and run Hibernate - that frees up program memory very quickly :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] AnubisP3300:
Okay so I have installed Oxios Memory.

Until now I have "won" 0.10 Mb Storage Memory and 0.97 Mb Program Memory. I will test this a little bit, seems a good solution before I find the courage to try to reinstall all programs on the memory card (as I said before there are some programs who did'nt asked where to be installed...or I haven't seen it. Everything is possible:) )

Thanks a lot.

You could use ClearTemp to have the temp folders emptied upon startup: http://www.scottandmichelle.net/scott/cestuff/cleartemp.zip

There are also several tools to change the standard temp folders so they are located on the storage card. Maybe Schaps Configuration tool can do that or maybe WinXplore can't remember, but those tools exist.

How to Root this ancient phone? I need the original ROM for backup. Thanks for helping.
[Touch HD General] manuelcalavera:
hi everyone,

I'm a Die Hard fan of Blackstone/Touch HD , and im waiting for it for a long time !

but after reading about it, watching movies, following discussions, I feel its nothing but a HUGE and tempting display .

we're all WM users and we didnt experienced any large-display phones with such size, and thats why we're trying to believe this is BEST !

since theres no TV-OUT capability , hard one handed usage , no D-PAD ( C'mon , its not iphone that fingers could do anything with any pressure ) and weird camera lens box!

is it really we wanted or its just another "I WANT TO BELIEVE?" ;)
[Touch HD General] Acelister:
I do see where you're coming from... To me, I'll be honest, it's the Diamond in a REALLY nice case. One that's familiar to a long-term Elf user. The touchy-feely case, no desire to use the D-Pad... But when all's said and done: It's a huge display and has a 5MP camera. It's the best ever HTC, but it will be easy to top...

Now I feel bad... Thanks... :P
[Touch HD General] gogol:
Hi,

Interesting point of view. ... and I agree most of it.

To be honest, the only thing I am interested in Touch HD is the huge 3.8" screen.

I like browsing the internet using Opera Mini (and Opera 9 of course) and I have no problem with my current HTC Kaiser.

However, I always envy with phone that has big screen, 3.5" like my friend's iPhone.

So, thats my sole reason to think about buying Touch HD.

However, I am holding back because there are couple of things that I need to convince myself:

1. TouchFlo 3D cannot show multiple appointments/tasks in its today screen.

This is rubish, I cannot understand why HTC does not implement this like the old HTC Home. And I have not found better solution for this.

Of course I can turn off TF3D (can I?) and use HTC Home or SpB Mobile Shell.

But ................ why???

2. No DPAD, can I live with it? Probably ...

But I have a dream to have a GAME DEVICE and PDA all in one.

I cannot do that with HTC Kaiser because of the graphics driver and bad performance. Really, I hate it.

3.8" is very nice for a game device. However, without DPAD, the game will be limited.

If I look the current Touch HD design, a DPAD is still possible in the center of those 4 buttons!

I know, I can buy Nintendo DS or PSP, but hey! I dont like carrying a lot of devices :)

5 MP camera is nothing ... the quality is still doubtful.

No TV-OUT like Raphael? Grrr!!!

Well, this is my personal opinion.

I dont know, probably I will buy it anyway ... or wait until I can hold and see it in real live ... and judge if the 3.8" screen is enough to convince myself to buy.
[Touch HD General] manuelcalavera:
upcomming phones have almost same display size ( like ASUS Galaxy 7 ) and solved problems ...

but i want it from HTC .
[Touch HD General] Boinng:
I think it's yet another half-a***d swipe at the iPhone, without any real thought put into it. WM fans want to believe this is "the one" that's going to give them everything they (perhaps secretly) really like about the iPhone, while still wearing the Windows Mobile badge. In reality, it's just another WM phone with a bigger screen, and actually a few disadvantages over some other models (like that lack of a D-pad). In spite of the screen I really doubt the multimedia will be as slick as the iPhone, and for gaming it's a dead duck - unlike the iPhone where the appstore is brimming full of immersive games built around the iPhone's acceleromotor and multi-touch screen, the Touch HD only has the WM back catalogue to choose from, 99% of which will be written to run on non-accelerometor equipped phones with D-pads.

Meanwhile, underneath the Touchflo you still have an interface designed for a stylus, however big the display.
[Touch HD General] oalex:

Get your act together HTC
[Touch HD General] temka:
I still cannot decide which model to choose - X1 or HD - and now I am thinking more and more of getting an X1. I simply understand that the only thing about HD that I am going to really love and cream-my-pants because of is the 3.8" screen.

I think that HD is a perfect device for non-WM-addicts, for people who will use just TF3D-interface and Opera at most, without installing any tweaks/programs/registry-hacks/emulators/debuggers/consoles/younameit. Cause when you want to install one of them, you're in trouble - no hardware keys, no D-pad... Achtung!

One more thing I thought about.. Every phone has a kind of a "secret combination of keys", e g "turn-on-the-phone-holding-two-buttons-pressed-and-enter-diagnostics-mode". I wonder if the sensor buttons would do that?
[Touch HD General] amireshan:
If I am going to express my opinion I will rather say I am going for the large screen size to be honest, Window mobile did not change since, its still WM 6.1 and not much difference on software, yes is the look of the phone that impress me and the size of the screen, because I personally enjoy watching movies on move. :D
[Touch HD General] nikki-m:
How can HTC put such a cheap, crappy-looking clock onto such a "high-end" device?

The analogue clock from the TF2D (as per the Touch 3G) just looks so much better.

I also agree with the comments about the Appointments - this is a very important point for me, and if not easily resolvable will make me look eleswhere.

So do I remove the TF3D and use Spb instead? If I were to do that, would I then lose the scrollability of the unit - is the finger-scrolling part of TF3D or part of WM6.1?

From a non techie user point-of-view, the more I am finding out about this, the less excited I am about it. Having just read through the manual, I realise it doesn't do any more than any other WM 6.1 pda, except for the bigger screen. And even the quality of films on that seems to be in question!

Maybe I should stop reading sites such as this - lol.
[Touch HD General] tboy2000:
Look we all love the design factor, large screen, hi res etc. That makes it the best win mo phone. Don't let these posts turn you off. You fell in love with the phone for a reason. As for the minor problems (2 appointments etc), well... where there's a will there's a way... xda-developers. Just give them time to work their magic. :)

Anyway there is always Second Today to see appointents http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=O2MYv5ooIp0
[Touch HD General] jpmalum:
Nothing...........

I just Ordered mine from pdashop.nl 1 minute ago... And i don't need any negation right now. for 629 Euro. ....It better impress

Nothing is gonna take that joy from me..:)
[Touch HD General] Boinng:
You can fall in love with a phone for the wrong reasons! I really do think expectations are too high for this device, and people are right to question and rethink this now, before they've paid their money... IMO it's a flawed design, WinMo needs some kind of d-pad, it's not finger friendly enough even on this size screen to get by without it. If losing the hardware controls is a necessity of that larger screen, then they need to replace the UI completely, and use some other OS.
[Touch HD General] nu_D:
...

Are you guys serious?

Let's see the complaints that make this device "just another WM phone."

1. TV-OUT Capability

Why do I need this? WHEN will I need this? If I am at home, I will use my laptop to connect my HDTV via HDMI. Using a phone at home for it's TV-Out capability is well, useless. If you can afford this device, and are tech-savvy enough to know about it, then odds are you have an HDMI capable computer and TV.

The ONLY scenario where I could see this feature be useful is if I wanted to output video on a random TV, maybe at a bar:

"Hey bartender, hook up my HTC TOUCH HD to the TV please."

LOL

Come on!

2. Hard one handed usage? This coming from people who love QWERTY keyboards. I find this hilarious. What's so hard about it? Move your thumb around and you're good to go.

3. OMG! Weird camera lens box!! WTF is weird about it? Now, if you want to tell me no flash, alright I can agree with that. But to nag about the camera lens box? I think it looks good. I mean, I honestly don't care what it looks like as long as it's not pink with rainbows.

What are some other complaints?

No directional pad. Well, you have a 3.8in TOUCH screen and you want a d-pad? Is this a joke? If you want a d-pad, don't buy a TOUCH screen.

No games. Who plays games on their phone? Seriously. If you want to play games, go and buy a PSP or DS.

Home screen only shows a couple of appointments. This is a SLIGHT issue, but something tells me it will be fixed in no time by the heads roaming these forums.

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

Now, let's compare these issues with the iPhone, since there were about 101 insinuations that we are desperate WM fan boys.

No TV-out:

iPhone doesn't have TV out either. OOOOOOOO.

Weird camera lens box:

iPhone has a useless 2megapixel camera without recording or focus features.

One handed usage:

Anyone notice that you have to slide SIDEWAYS just to unlock the iPhone? Explain to me how you are going to do that with ONE hand. At least HTC had the foresight to allow you to use the phone primarily with your thumb with up and down gestures.

The HTC Touch HD is NOT like any other WM phone or ANY phone for that matter. It's sensitivity is far superior, beautiful screen, FAST, and can do anything you can throw at it besides useless things such as outputting video at a bar.

Oh, and please don't get me started on the lack of iPhone features. How about the ability to CUT and PASTE? Want to talk to me about the iPhone marketplace? There are programmers all over the net with custom programs for WM that allows us to do basically ANYTHING, even emulate the iPhone.

Give me a break. This is a GREAT device and as far as I can tell, the only thing missing is flash.

And if you want to really be douche about it, most phones nowadays have a phone, video/music player, and a camera! So I guess we should all just get ourselves a Nokia 7610 and cluck.
[Touch HD General] nikki-m:
So, could I use Second Today to run something like the Spb Today screen (because I am used to and love its flexible Appointments display), or am I mixing up technologies?

And just how safe /easy is it for a non-techie to install Second Today, and to change the button functions (and does this require a registry change, because now I'm starting to talk a new language?)
[Touch HD General] nikki-m:
And, whilst I'm in a writing mood, the other issues raised were video playback quality, and suspected lag in GPS navigation.

Can anyone confirm the current situation with these. Is the playback quality acceptable without dropped frames, and has it been absolutely confirmed by a real test that there is no GPS lag?
[Touch HD General] mallman:
haha opinions from Apple Fan Boys dont count. All opinions on gaming (based on nothing), no dpad (which i love), Poor multimedia (not from the videos ive seen), App store stinks because hacked apps for iphone way better and FREE,

I owned an Iphone for a month and couldnt get rid of it fast enough because WM offers so much more functionality for business and "hackability"
[Touch HD General] manuelcalavera:
dont get wrong ! iphone is NO WAY competitor, its just a fancy phone! not more not less !

im going to buy this beast, but i really want to know is this really a big deal ?

i dont think so !

but we all know the form factor and the screen size is undeniable ! thats why im going for HD .
[Touch HD General] gogol:
When you are on holiday? At the hotel, in a country where you dont understand local language ... you end up with CNN :)

So, TV-Out is nice to have! Hook it up to the hotel TV and play movie from your PDA.

Why some users complained about this TV-Out? Because the "previous" device has that, HTC Raphael. Why dont they include it in the next iteration?

Of course, probably there are some other reasons, like PRICE etc. But I see this TV-Out as a valid point.

Not always like that. The OS (WinMo 6.1) is not specifically designed for touch screen only.

People like me, prefer to use DPAD to move around the UI, much faster, efficient and less-thumb-hurt :)

You may disagree, but thats you!

Woohoo ... Gaming is also part of the mobile world.

If you dont play game in your PDA, then (again) it's your choice.

You should not dictate that, because the mobile gaming market is THERE.

Righty ... :) Please dont compare iPhone apps with WinMo apps :)

Yes, it is a great device. But how great is this? Depends ...
[Touch HD General] mallman:
and my apologies for not answer the question lol. Is it a big deal, nah, not when you look at all the other technology worldwide as a whole. Its nice but there is really no "phone" that is a big deal in my humble opinion.
[Touch HD General] Boinng:
Actually yes, it does. Bad start.

Absolutely. For the record, I have no idea why anyone's complaining about the "weird camera lens box" on the HD. It's just a lens.

The iPhone's camera is just a camera, and makes no pretence to be anything more - if you want a better camera, buy one (or a different phone).

Easily and quickly about a million times a day. Seriously, you're just demonstrating you've never been near one, and are desperately trying to think up things which might be wrong with it, on the strength of a few screenshots you've seen. The "slide to unlock/answer" is an excellent feature that's completely natural to use one handed - it works so well that even HTC have tried to imitate it with a similar "slide to answer" feature on the, ahem, Touch HD.

You mean TouchFlo scrolling? The first feature that HTC copied from the iPhone, last year? Ah yes, such foresight!

Wake up and smell yesterday's coffee. It's like like every other WM phone, runs the same software as every other WM phone, it even has the same processor and internal spec as most other current WM phones. The screen is new, as is the inconvenient lack of d-pad - everything else is the same old same old.

Oh, yeah, it doesn't do that. You knew about that? I thought it was a secret?

Not really, but I'll tell about the Appstore - bloody brilliant. Thousands of quality apps, many of them free, all the paid ones generally much, much cheaper than their WinMo equivalents, and all there to be browsed and downloaded right on the device, updates alerted and downloaded in the same way.. yep, it's a fantastic system. Is that what you wanted to know?

Now why would you want to emulate a rubbish old iPhone? :confused:

For the record, I used a Tytn II for the past year, I've never owned a Mac, and I've never been a "fanboy" of any damn thing, but if you think the iPhone's a soft target for a bit of WinMo frustration, you're mistaken.
[Touch HD General] nu_D:
1. Holiday?

I travel a lot and no matter which country I have been in, the hotels have American based movie channels. Furthermore, I travel with my laptop and it can output video. If you are paying nearly a thousand dollars on a phone and don't have a laptop, then well, you need to get your priorities in line. Or at least buy yourself a laptop.

Furthermore, how often are we traveling? Such a feature is absolutely useless. "When you are on holiday." You are talking about a few days a year? Ya well, I guess that makes it very important.

Well, I bet the Raphael had a normal keypad! (example) Why can't we get one of those? I don't care about Raphael or Michelangelo or Da Vinci nor features that I will use 3 days a year.

More importantly, you are on HOLIDAY, what are you doing in the hotel room?

2. Who needs WM? I see so many people nagging about WM, that's why they have TouchFlo3D. Why do I need to use WM? I can do everything I need from the TouchFlo interface. If I have to do some obscure function, then well, that's why the stylus is there.

3. Then don't get a TOUCH phone! I understand the point about the D-pad and I know where you are coming from, but you missed my point entirely; my point is that if you want a TOUCH screen then you shouldn't be crying about the lack of a D-pad. If you want a D-pad, get yourself a normal keypad phone without a touch screen. It's TOUCH man. A 3.8in TOUCH screen at that. And you want a D-pad? You're looking at the wrong phone. Check out the Nokia 7610 or N73, they both have a D-pad.

3. Yes, mobile gaming is there, and that's why they make the PSP and the DS. ;)

My little brothers and sisters have the PSP and the DS. They are pretty cool, especially the PSP. Heck, the PSP even has TV-out! I think you might need to start looking at the PSP rather than a phone.

4. Why not?

5. Beauty is in the of the beholder, but we can apply some logic; damning a phone for a "weird lens box" is ridiculous. Crying about the lack of a feature that we are going to use in a hotel room 12 days a year while we should be outside enjoying our holiday is also ridiculous. Hell, I have seen posts wondering if the phone can make encrypted phone calls. WTF? Seriously.

Come on.

People also crying about the movie performance, I don't know what the benchmarks are saying and I honestly don't care. I have seen videos of the playback and it seems superb. I have read some crazy posts dealing with mathematical calculations and I don't know what man. Go to youtube and watch a video of it's playback, it's flawless. If a benchmark says it's super but in the real world it sucks, then who gives a damn about the benchmark? Exactly. Apply the opposite scenario now.

Oh ya, about the GPS, didn't Korver state that the GPS was also pretty flawless? I doubt it's going to be perfect, but I bet it will be pretty damn good.
[Touch HD General] nu_D:
Oh, it does? Sweet. Well, when you are on your holiday make sure to take your TV-out cable. ;)

Desperate? Come on man. We are talking about phones here! I don't know if phones cause you desperation, but as far as I am concerned these are just cool gadgets and people going all emo' about them because of a lack of a random feature is annoying.

You can do that with one hand? Well, every time I have seen it done it was done with two hands. Regardless, scrolling up/down is more intuitive than sideways, that is for the thumb.

If I am demonstrating that I have never been near one, I guess this demonstrates that you use one on a daily basis and go to sleep in Apple pajamas, contrary to your last line. Imitation? It's like I care about who invented the damn feature. I don't care. Kudos to Apple man. My point was that the HTC version is more intuitive.

Again, it's like people care who invented the feature. Xerox invented the mouse. Kudos to Xerox.

You read my line that if you want to be douchy in reality all phones are basically the same? Looks like you haven't. All cars are the same too, they have four wheels and an engine.

Ah. No. It's not a secret? Come on man. You should know that. haha

That was rhetorical question buddy. But thanks for your input anyway.

You missed the point, again. Point is that we can do whatever we wish, EVEN if that wish would be to emulate the iPhone.

Soft target? Frustration? Desperation?

What is this? Is this lay down on the couch time? People nagging about some unbelievably obscure things and I am simply stating that they need to man up and stop being emo.

Frustration? About what? The only frustration I am sensing is the fact that other companies are copying your beloved Apple's features.

Anyway man. That's enough flames for me for today... back to the real world.
[Touch HD General] fhsieh:
The HD is as good as your bank account can tolerate.

End of story. :D
[Touch HD General] gogol:
Yes of course. But how if you have already seen it? Watch it again! Right ...

I do own a laptop. But not all people like to bring a laptop during holiday!

Again, not all people are travelling ONLY several days a year ! Probably this is related to your job now? That you CANT travel a lot? Then, it is clearly your own situation ... hehehehe

Take some rest in the evening?

We are not crying for that DPAD ;)

But we think that DPAD will be a good feature !

Is that a crime?

HTC Touch has a touch screen AND a DPAD ... if you dont know hehehehe...

Not all people like to bring:

- a PDA

- a Laptop

- a DS or PSP

- a GPS

- a ........

Hehehehe.

I think, you really miss the point, see above !

Because they are different, and at this point in TIME, there is no software market place for WinMO.

Come on! Take it easy ... :D

Not all people have the luxury like you where you have to work all year so then you cannot have more than several days of holiday ... or that some people must suffer because they have to travel a lot for their business ;)
[Touch HD General] Boinng:
The thing is, it was kind of you that start listing random features and comparing them between phones (namely the HD and Iphone). So you have to ask who's really getting all "emo" here!

Anyone can do it with one hand! It's designed to be a simple thing that anyone can do with one hand, two hands, their nose, anything but the inside of their pocket.

But you're comparing UI apples with oranges here - the slide right is only for unlocking or answering a call, most of the scrolling is up/down (although some apps use sideways scrolling too, coverflow in landscape mode for example). It's all about context, HTC uses many of the same conventions in TouchFlo.

This is where you just go off the scale - yes I use an iPhone, that's how I'm able to comment on what you're saying, but why does that automatically mean I go to sleep in Apple pyjamas? What's "contrary to my last line"? Are you honestly saying that because I use an iPhone, I have to be an Apple fanboy, regardless of the fact that I've used many other phones and probably know Windows Mobile better than you do?
