Hi,

I want to use my Blueangel (XDA IIs) as a remote control with the novii remote software, but the range is too short, so i want to try and increase the range.

I have heard that some people with ipaqs have replaced a resistor to increase the range. Is there a similar resistor in the blueangel that I can replace? Or perhaps a different IR LED that I can install?

Thanks,

Laser493

go to windows\opera9 and copy\backup the opera6.adr file.

That's all you need as far as "backing up" your bookmarks.

and using "Notepad 2", you can easily edit the file on your PC if you want.

Hi there

this is sort of ROM development related, just so happens that the cook is HTC!

just got off the phone with a technical support specialist at HTC and been told that an update to the phone is imminent

just thought i'd give everyone a heads up
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] ruffer:
Yes, I also recently asked HTC support about update and they said new ROM is going to be released in nearest weeks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] phr0zthae:
Good news for us, less good news for the ROM cookers.

Now I can't wait for two things, the new Elite RC3 and the new ROM by HTC :).

Thanks for the update duke_stix!
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] irus:
yes but what updates is it going to bring maybe winmo 6.5 :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] donottouch:
yeah and wich one gonna be Windows Mobile 7 ??? that also a good quastion we should ask Microsoft are't we??? :)

I don't know what to say.. to another user some guy from HTC costumer service said that a new ROM will be released in december. December passed and no ROM released.. So..
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Seifer:
i guess this is some sort of strategy. htc says "we will be releasing a new rom in very short time". And everyone becomes "oh ok then i can live with my problems on my htc pro now, as there ll be a new rom soon." and customer is now happy. :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] ruffer:
Exactly. that's why i haven't announced their promises anywhere %)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] juwenio:
today i phoned htc europe support because i have to return my phone for repairing the g-sensor; by the way i asked if there is also a solution for the gps-lag and he told me that a new rom will come out in the next weeks (there are on testing it actually) and gps will be part of it; i don´t want to comment this statement but maybe a really solution will come ? - lets keep our fingers crossed

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] tora201:
Yay! Maybe finally due to a large number of customer complaints about the GPS, and the general lethargic nature of the phone (including music skipping, etc) HTC have decided to fix things. (Wouldn't hold my breath though)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] SamsungGalaxySamsung:
I have called HTC today again to complain about the GPS and other things.

The specialist with whom i talked said to me: A new rom will be available for the EU soon. At the end of februari with fixed GPS. So let's wait ...
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] jblakk:
yea, they are going to release a new ROM with all the GPS fixes that the great chefs at XDA discovered. We know they pay attention to the forums here, why put in the RnD when all you have to do is see what we did to fix our phones, and implement it:rolleyes:

The real reason is probably that Iphone takes too large market share,there will be no room for HTC high end device, if WM6 doesn't upgrade.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] SamsungGalaxySamsung:
jblakk and biou,

you both are totally right:cool:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] anonimo:
So it was supposed to be "late december" then "january" and now "end of february"....

Well we can't be surprised with lack of support from HTC; it's always been like this. They have a line-up of 25 new phones appearing in 2009. How much time can they allocate to support post-sales problems for each model? Maybe one working day for each model?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] HackMimic:
well just my 2 cents. i was at att the other day and i saw a guy there from att head quarters testing wm7 in my area. my buddy works there and said they have been testing for a while. i did see it with my own eyes. looks totally different.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] btprice2001:
wm7 or 6.5?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] anonimo:
And how is this related to the thread topic? Don't tell me you expect a new Touch Pro ROM based on WM7!!! :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] biou:
I don't think that HTC devices could run WM7. HTC uses always too under-performant processors, almost no video chips. If WM7 wants to compete with Iphone, I think Micro$oft should release their own made device.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] NLS:
erm yes man right

and I saw a friend testing Windows 8 (you know the one that is supposed to include Hyper-V)

WM7 is nowhere to be seen yet (and for another year)

WM6.5 is a possibility - but I am not so sure they'll upgrade our device with it
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] irus:
well it looks like htc was not lieing about a new rom there is an update for the diamond which includes ie6 and some other stuff so i guess a new rom for the touch pro should be up soon but not sure how much of a difference it will make as most of the chefs around here have add that stuff already :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Kraize:
Oh yeah! Well! I saw someone with Windows Mobile 9847634943990646279642787896428906427980626408264! Beat that!

I ve been using it for sometime now..but it doesnt scroll as smoothly as that of the iphone.

can someone tell me why is X1 not as fast as iPhone.

even without iContact i noticed..the Scrolling on it is not as smooth as that in iPhone.

is there a tweak for that?

If u wanna try it ..its here: http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-icontact-v0-5.html

much better than windows contact list..but not quite as smooth as that of iphone.
[XPERIA X1 General] CantoX1i:
It's mostly WinMo's fault that it aint that smooth, the drivers aswell. I wouldnt trade my WinMo phone for anything, I like the ability to run several programs at once :P

The reason the iPhone can do things so smooth, is mostly because they limit it to run 1 program at the time, so whatever program is running, is actually getting the entire phones dedication :)

But still, I don't need the smoothness of the iPhone, I just look at the iPhone, and I see: A phone that has old hardware, simple layout and is limited to whatever Apple wants.

I don't see a WVGA version of that burt version....
[XPERIA X1 General] dingolino:
There are several vga skins which are working quite nicely. I am using

grzenio_vga

You have to go to burt´s web site and download those vga skins.

For installation you have to use the latest official built 6.4.5, install it, than you can overwrite the files with the latest 7.0.1 beta version.

Install it to itnernal memory.

If you want to use iDialer as well from subro you have to check the name of your program folder. The presetting is "program" (within iConfig) if you have a german system like me you have to change it in iConfig into "Programme".

[Touch HD General] WhO_KnOwS:
After owning the Touch HD for a full month I just noticed that down the middle of the screen there is something which I can best describe as an oil stain. It looks as if there is a liquid in between the glass/plastic screen and the resistive layer that lays on top of it.

The screen works normally and this "stain" can only be observed if I look at how the light reflects of it.

Any idea what happened?
[Touch HD General] Dude10:
Hi,

I have a small idear. The TFT-Monitor ist touching your Touchscreen. Probeply you pressed something on your HD, that the two Monitor touch each other, that is why it looks like a Water or Oil spot.

This can happen for example, if you are carrying your HD in your trouser pocket.

If you want to try to remove this spot, you have to turn with your both hand the hd, like the right hand turn with the clock and the left hand turn to the other way.

Sorry, my english is not very good for such a discribing. What I mean is like "to contort" or "to skew (up)". But you have to be very carefully. Before you start, remove the Battery :rolleyes:
[Touch HD General] chaosdefinesorder:
(I'll be incorporating a clearer explanation along the lines of what Dude10 was trying to say)

The effect you're seeing is IDENTICAL to what causes the colours to appear on an oil film actually!

The way the Touch HD screen works is to have the hard glass (polycarbonate plastic actually as far as I'm aware, but that's not important here!) with a squashy resistive sensor layer on the top.

This resistive layer detects touch as an increase in resistance at the spot that's compressed - be that by a finger or a stylus. Because the upper layer can be compressed, it can also be malformed by stronger than normal pressure, such as an object in a pocket. The effect can be more pronounced if your body heat warms up the screen surface making the screen "set" in position rather than spring back as it should do...

The "oil" effect is cause by the reflections of light from the outermost plastic layer and the outermost surface of the hard screen. When the gap is small enough, these reflections can interfere with each other, cancelling and re-inforcing different wavelengths depending on the thickness - hence the tapering of the screen from thinnest to thickest results in a "rainbow"

Now, why explain all this you may ask? Partly because I like science and it fascinated me in school to learn what caused that effect so wanted to share this!:D (And this also explains why it only presents itself when you look at the light reflections)

Anyway, more importantly, the solution to your problem is to restore the thickness of that part of the touch layer to it's original uncompressed state.

I'd firstly start trying to hold your finger flat against the top of the phone screen (on flat surface, portraint orientation, finger "left to right") then pressing resonably hard (the hard screen should protect the device - if not you're pressing too hard!:D) slide your finger down the screen from top to bottom trying to keep an even pressure. This should hopefully even out the surface.

Failing this, as Dude10 suggests, take the battery out and use your thumbs (holding with fingers in the battery well) to press and "smear" around the problem area.

Unfortunately, other than this I don't think there's a particular way to remove the effect totally if it doesn't work...

Obviously it's speculation given that you didn't mention how it happened in the first place, but it does sound like it got knocked or pressed by something either in bag or pocket - maybe even a fold in the pouch:confused:

Hope you manage to smooth it out!
[Touch HD General] fasty:
Just a long shot, but:

Sometimes a similar effect can be caused when some moisture has got between the layers of a display.

Have you used the phone anywhere damp or very humid ?

Keeping it somewhere warm and dry might be worth a try?

- Steve
[Touch HD General] WhO_KnOwS:
Thanks for all the tips. The issue happened when I had the Touch HD in the pouch and in my pocket - so the idea that it was a fold in the pouch holds water.

The funny thing however is that before I saw all of your replies I was already out the door (with the Touch HD back in the pouch and pocket). 5 minutes later when I pulled it out the issue was gone. I am guessing that I reapplied the exact amount of pressure needed or something like that.

Thanks again for the tips and especially to chaosdefinesorder for the nice explanation.
[Touch HD General] Dude10:
Thx for helping explanation :D
[Touch HD General] KukurikU:
no, i don't think it was gone. check again under a fluorescent light....

i have this on my diamond. my HD is flawless (till now...:p)

i phoned to a technician and explain the phenomena and he invited me to replace the screen. when i got there, to my complete amazement and embarrassment :o the stain was gone. only later i discovered that the stain is visible under fluorescent light only.
[Touch HD General] KukurikU:
thanks m8, already tried this (on my diamond) and tried now again with both yr methods. no results. the stain is still there...i think only a replacement can solve it.

CID lock is hackable too... and I think HTC, microsoft wanna to protect the ROM too and they have a lot of $$ to do so... but ...

so why one (cookedROM) wanna a protection?

what's special features or things that in the ROM that one do not want others to have?

Remember, say if you can protect your ROM, when you install, the files will be expanded... and other chiefs can copy too, others can dump the files from a phone...

Just a thought
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Windza:
Isn't every ROM here a 'rip-off' of someone elses work??? Most ppl are just honest about it is all - they understand they've made improvements and added to the work but at the end of the day they can't claim it as 'their work'!

Most variants here utilise modded TF3D (HTC's expensive and hard work) and various software from all over... unless you're releasing a build entirely developed from your own work (near on impossible - just ask Schaps) than suck it up.

IMO you should feel obliged to share and not lock down work that you really have no right to claim as your own anyway!

I understand that you don't want someone passing off your efforts as their own - but your best defence is to make what you've done well known so ppl recognise it... and the best way to do that is simply to share it openly (and document it well in the forum).

If it's a worthwhile effort than ppl know will soon know where to look for it and who to credit (and from what I've seen on these forums, most ppl are happy to credit others)...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] conflipper:
using ervious kitchen alows you to build all packages to one. this is very nice, it also helps with performance of the rom, it gets rid or all the DSM files. so you have less files in your windows folder.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] coolfire74:
All I can say is, if you really want a protection, the only solution is: do not release it. Just cook it and only install it on you OWN diamond. In this way, you can look at your OWN rom and OWN device and feel like you are a genius. :)

Isn't it entertaining? LOL

I have down loaded and am using two great cab files that I am now using on my Sprint TP. One is BT on/off, and the other is WIFI on/off. In particular I have mapped BT on/off to a soft key on my TF3d home screen (easier than having to take 3 steps to access comm manager) Quickly turn BT on and off (toggle).

Does any on know if there are any cabs out there that create a program icon to turn on, and turn off the Sprint data connection (toggle it on and off, like the sliding comm manager feature?

I would map it to another softkey on my TF3d home location. I am already aware of being able to terminate the data connection via the long press option quick list.

I like to turn off the connection, fairly quick after I use it to conserve battery.

I also posted this in the CDMA Threads
