I want Japanese font support. I've found some DIY pages, but still uncertain about some things.

Here are the references...

http://www.oneindia.mobi/windowsmobile-help.html

http://blog.int64.org/2008/09/04/adding-japanese-support-to-windows-mobile-61

Issues: Author states "To my knowledge Segoe Condensed is the only font used in the UI on Windows Mobile 6.1"

I'm not sure this is true of the Fuze. I don't find Segoe.ttf on my device.

Also, the blog says I should use Multi-String Value if I want to link Meiryo.ttf and Meiryob.ttf. I'm confused by the options I see in Total Commander registry editor. If I choose Multi-String, the next screen defaults to 00 00 00 00 in the first line of the data field. I do not understand why. Maybe it's insignificant. But it leads me to temptation, which is the data type "Expandable Str."

My device already has some linking..

Value name - HelveticaNeue LT55 Roman

Value data - \Windows\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma

Value name - HelveticaNeue LT35 Thin

Value data - \Windows\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma

Does this mean my primary system font is HelveticaNeue? Should I delete these two keys and re-define them as Multi-String like this?...

Value name - HelveticaNeue LT55 Roman

Value data - \Windows\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma

\Windows\meiryo.ttf,Meiryo

\Windows\meiryob.ttf,Meiryo Bold

Value name - HelveticaNeue LT35 Thin

Value data - \Windows\tahoma.ttf,Tahoma

\Windows\meiryo.ttf,Meiryo

\Windows\meiryob.ttf,Meiryo Bold

Or should I tack Meiryo onto Tahoma...

Value name - Tahoma

Value data - \Windows\meiryo.ttf,Meiryo

\Windows\meiryob.ttf,Meiryo Bold

Or is Segoe really the main font, and I need to link to that...

Value name - Segoi

Value data - \Windows\meiryo.ttf,Meiryo

\Windows\meiryob.ttf,Meiryo Bold

Here is another useful link...

Im kinda upgrading from my wing to a tilt. A friend of a friend lol is selling his he has had for a month for $150 so I had to jump on it at that price.

I was just wanting to know if flashing a new rom on the tilt was pretty much the same on the wing?

And what is a good popular ROM you guys are using?

Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
Best flashing tutorial is here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=433835

Go to the rom dev section for roms. One would think that the most popular would have the most hits.

But as in high school, the most popular isn't always the best.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
I always think that hits = problems.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Why not try the one it comes with to see how satisfied you are with that first off? I know denko7 has already replied but I was very impressed with his reply to another post relating to bloatware on the Tilt here. I cant really talk with regard to Tilts but as far as official HTC TyTN II ROMs go (perhaps with the keyboard fix on a Tilt), the oldies (WM 6.0) were the goodies.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] burtcom:
Indeed -- I took off the bloatware on my stock 6.1 and I'm very happy with the results.

You can always install Manila, etc via CABS later if you decide to give 'em a try.

However, when my warranty runs out, I just might try a ROM or two :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
Ha Ha, I waited until my warranty ran out too. But I think that if I had known how easy it was and how much, much better my phone was going to run, I might have dared it much earlier.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] allted:
Good thread idea, tough to answer

There are SO many roms now. Definitely use the stock rom - minus the bloat- for a while and see if there's any thing you want to add.

I would like to know if anyone has a basic tilt rom with some preformance tweaks added? I'm to not interested in flashy, I just want good performance.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
Check out NATF's roms, basic AT$T without the crap and fast.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] engelke2009:
I've had my Tilt for only a couple of weeks. I bought it from a friend for only $90. He upgraded to an iPhone. What programs would you guys consider the bloat that I should get rid of to gain free space?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sNowMaN432:
im riding on the hyperdragon roms. They're pretty nice visually and the touch flow is nice on the fingers. Another alternative is to find a fast rom and load up SPB mobile shell which just runs on top of your rom but works nice for navigation. then again you probably know about the mobile shell so i'd recommend hyperdragon.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Paticakeman:
Downloading the newest Hyperdragon rom right now. Will it work with TMobile after i install this rom??
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sNowMaN432:
hmmm thats a good question. The service with T-mobile might coincide with the radio that the rom installs. Maybe you can cross-check your old radio with radios that work with the new Hyperdragon rom.

or flash a suitable radio that fits both requirments. maybe someone more knowledgabe will reply as well. lol
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Paticakeman:
haha yeah im gonna read some wikis so i will know whats going on. Flashing the Wing was easy. I have tried twice now with the tilt and im not getting anywhere. Stays on 0% then i have to take the battery out.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sNowMaN432:
im just curious isnt the t-mobile wing that new phone with google andriod? isnt it supposed to be really good? alot of people here have spent time trying to mimic is operating system on the tilt.

its just my opinion but i think the tilt is overrated, i've had it for about 6 months.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Paticakeman:
The Wing is prolly 2 years old now. The new Google phone is simply called the G1. Im starting to think im just going to sell the tilt and upgrade to the G1.

Sorry to say it man. You are out of luck. That is the only TRUE brick that happens.

Better luck next time. No way to fix it. Might as well throw your phone in some water, or use it as a paperweight.

Now, I did hear sticking a paper clip into the USB port while you boot it up often fixes it.

Dont worry. Just check md5 of the DREAIMG.nbh .I`m sure that MD5 is wrong, thats why u have error
[G1 Android Development] roush611:
can you please explain how to do this?
[G1 Android Development] felicita:
Your device is from USA or England?

If it`s from USA downdload RC29NBH.zip here http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Root_For_RC30.

Then extract file DREAIMG.nbh., Format your sdcard in FAT32, Copy DREAIMG.nbh on SDcard. And then compare the MD5 of your file. It must be MD5 Checksum: 53840b90a0fe1bfab19fab8ef8fb9724. If its OK Turn OFF your phone, insert SD into your phone, turn On your phone.

If you have windows PC you can check MD5 in MD5checker. (you can find it in google).

P.S. Sorry for my English.
[G1 Android Development] TuXeyM11:
Haha I'm just playing roush.

A couple things. When you flashed are you positive your card was FAT32? Also make sure it was update.zip, not update.zip.zip.

Try reflashing the RC 29 image *the DREAIMG one.

Lastly make sure you downloaded the right image and it's not corrupt.

[Shift Development] Qtek9000Jan:
Hello everybody,

I just found out that Garmin has a programm for navigation which runs on Vista and XP. Before buying it:

I found the following part of a post on how to use the build in GPS from Vista side after using search:

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

"Hi Martiare

There are two ways

1. you could use external bluetooth receiver that your vista side could use to connect using BlueTooth or USB, easiest and fastest way of doing it.

2. If you wish to use internal GPS of Shift then, you need to install either thaihugo's ROM, pliROM or RamROM, which can be downloaded from this forum (search is your friend). Once you install them, you have multiple options, but the one I use is using Franson's GPSGate Client for Vista and WinMo. I bought this for $49 and I feel good investment. Install GPSGatePPC on WinMo side, and GPSGate on Vista side. Configure GPSGatePPC to work on ActiveSync. Configure GPSGate to receive signals from ActiveSync. And install Maps software such as AutoRoute or Micosoft Streets, Earthmate etc. on Vista side and thats all.

Thanks

Ram"

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

My question is the following:

Is there a chaeper, maybe better solution for connectoin software to use the GPS on Vista side?

Best regards,

2. Installed GPSGate 2.6 Client on Vista side (but I have WinXP).

3. Configured GPSGate 2.6 PPC for ActiveSync output.

4. Configured GPSGate 2.6 Client on Vista/XP side for input on ActiveSync.

5. Error: "GPS data but no position. Running OK!" (Snapvue Side)

[Shift Development] FaRiS261:
Same problem here, hope we find solution soon. Garmin Mobile PC looks great on shift.
[Shift Development] deadnex:
It works fine if you download the latest update from Garmin.com (Update version 5.00.60g)

The problem is that Garmin Mobile PC version 5.00.50 or older doesn't detect the virtual COM port created by GPS gate.

You also need to enable GPS Tool in WM side and

leave

the shift standing outside (in an open space) for several minutes until you will get a satelite fix...
[Shift Development] FaRiS261:
Thanks for your help...

I found some steps to set Garmin Mobile PC, GPSgate turns green & I'm still working on it to see if it works in my shift probably

1. install Franson’s GPSGate software for the PPC platform on WinMo, configure it to share GPS signals out through Activesync.

2. using the HTC GPS Tool which comes with every custom GPS-enabled ROM, open the GPS port. Set baudrate to 4800.

3. connect the WinMo side to the Windows 7 side using USBTool. At this point, because you have so many programs open on the WinMo side with a limited amount of memory available, the WinMo side may act sluggishly; this is normal.

4. on the Windows side, install Franson GPSGate for Windows. Configure it to receive GPS signals through Activesync.

5. install your preferred GPS navigation program; in my case, I installed Garmin Mobile PC.

6. configure GPSGate on Windows to create a “virtual COM” port outputting the NMEA filter to share the GPS signals it receives from the WinMo side through Activesync.

7. Configure the GPS navigation software, in my case, Garmin Mobile PC, to use the Virtual COM port created in step 6 above.

8. Success!
[Shift Development] Qtek9000Jan:
Garmin Mobile PC running

Hello,

I have installed Garmin Mobile PC on Vista side and i also use Fransons GPS tool.

Have been playing with it for some time now.

Once you get a fixed position by sattelites it is a very good navigator which looks great on the big screen of the Shift, especially in the carholder....

Only problem is the time it takes to get a fixed position.

I have had to wait sometimes for over half an hour (while driving my car because of the long time waiting) before i got a fixed position.

I ordered an external USB GPS antenna from Garmin.

Wil share my experience with it.

Best regards,

[Shift Development] maestro2mil:
Garmin Mobile PC v5.x under XP GPSGate no fixed position

I was successful in getting Garmin Mobile PC to work, but only with Windows Vista. I've spent hours trying to get it to work under Windows XP. Here's what I've run into:

Franson GPSGate v2.6 on WM side does not get fixed position.

If running Vista (and apparently Windows 7) then on WM side, using GPSGate, you'll get a

fixed

position. I found this out by re-imaging the Windows side with Vista (original factory image) and voila! GPSGate v2.6 on WM side magically obtained a fixed position even inside a building. I conclude therefore, that Vista has some sort of driver that enables or communicates with the WM side? I am going to re-attempt a new "clean" install, from scratch, of XP with all drivers, found at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=436982 and see if it works. Can't use Vista (too slow) and don't want Windows 7 (still beta) and believe XP would provide better battery life and performance.
[Shift Development] FaRiS261:
I think you mean USB Tool which can connect both SnapVue (WM) with Vista.
[Shift Development] maestro2mil:
Garmin Mobile PC v5.x under XP GPSGate & USB Tool

No, the USBTool, HTC GPSTool and Franson GPSGate v2.6 on WM side works fine. The USBTool works fine with XP installed using Activesync. The main problem is GPSGate will not get fixed position if the Windows side is XP. No other problems. So, when I say there must be a driver in Windows Vista/Windows 7, i mean, something in these versions must be different than XP because GPSGate works fine. Any ideas?
[Shift Development] FaRiS261:
GpsGate Client for Windows

(For Windows Vista / XP / 2000 / NT / 9x / ME)

Check this out

It doesn't matter which OS you have cause GPSGate supports and works in XP. Make sure Garmin works fine and registered, don't do like me. Then follow the mentioned steps. You've to wait about have an hour or maybe less till HTC GPS Tool got fixed position.
[Shift Development] FaRiS261:
I've noticed something ... In SnapVue side When Vista not running, HTC GPS Tool in seconds get Satellite Fixed.

[G1 Android Development] nickwinn:
Before going crazy and flashing back to RC29, try doing a full wipe and see if that fixes the problem.
[G1 Android Development] JesusFreke:
Agreed. flashing the nbh is a bit.. extreme :). Additionally, flashing the nbh is riskier than wiping or re-applying the JFv1.41 update. Flashing the nbh could potentially brick your phone, doing a wipe or re-applying the JFv1.41 update doesn't touch the bootloader, so it is much much safer.

Hi. I broke my 3.5mm adapter, two of the connections are now broken. I soldered both wires back but I don't know if they should be soldered with a specific contact. I chose the each wire with a contact, randomly. I put the little plastic case together and, of course, it doesn't work. The sound still comes out of the speakers.

So, is it ruined? The adapter is very simple so I thought I could do it myself.

My second question is that if I buy another adapter, would I have to buy one that's stereo? I saw some descriptions on ebay and some are listed as stereo and some as mono, but they look the same. :confused:

Thanks.
