From my understanding batteries should have low internal resistance, so I don't see how hooking up a resistor will help here. Do you know whether HTC has a chip in its batteries so that the device could only recognize its batteries and thereby exclude after-market batteries? A recognition chip in the battery could explain why my device will not turn on even when I connect together all the battery prongs on my Spring Mogul (PPC6800) and the red no-battery light goes away. If there is a chip in the battery, is there a way to harvest its program and put it on a blank chip and connect it to the device battery holder's prongs to turn on the devise? Thanks for your suggestions.
[General Accessories] shahriar5252:
The car charger that I have is a Motorola and has a fuse in it to break circuit in case of a power surge. I think we just need to find a way to power up the device without needing the battery. Any other suggestions? Thank you.
[General Accessories] shahriar5252:
These suggestion will not work because I think HTC batteries have a chip in them to stop excess recharging. Therefore the device needs to recognize the battery chip's permission to turn on itself. See my next post for how the recharging works on Sprint Mogul (HTC PPC6800).

I would appreciate any other suggestions.
[General Accessories] shahriar5252:
No, I want to be able to use the HTC device using an external power supply without the battery in the device.
[General Accessories] shahriar5252:
Possible solution using a new cooked up ROM:

My Sprint Mogul (HTC PPC6800) has an LED that turns orange when I plug in the device for recharging, and the battery normally gets warmed up as the battery is being recharged. The orange LED will turn green once the battery is fully charged, and then the battery cools. Once the LED is green and the device is still plugged in to an external power supply, the fully recharged battery remains cool even if it is being used for intensive applications. From this observation, I am guessing that HTC batteries or the device itself must have a chip in them that sense the amount of charge in the battery and shup down further recharging of the battery so as to prevent overcharging the battery.

If so, can someone find out how a new ROM can be cooked up to trick the device or the battery into thinking that the battery is fully charged and thereby prevent the battery from being charged when the owner wants to use the device on external power without recharging the battery?

Of course, this must be a reversible thing to do.

I did this last year, but haven't put much time into perfecting it

I got mine to work by soldering the -/+ ends of a usb cable to the +/- leads where the battery connects on my HTC Wizard, though I haven't perfected it yet, I post some pics when I can, I also had it running on 3 AAA batteries, using the same method but connecting it to a 3x AAA battery case from radioshack, I'm no technician, so I'm winging it a bit, but I think I may need to use a resister or something cuz the battery is 3.7v and usb is 5v so I don't know how safe it is but it works. Any constructive input/advice is appreciated ;)
[General Accessories] shahriar5252:
I don't know how you did the soldering of the connections because when I hooked them using wires, it did not work. A red LED would come on and the phone would not turn on. So go ahead and post your pictures to see what you did. Thanks.

Here's my working design

You will need torx wrenches to get the device open, Lowes sells a great mini torx screwdriver that holds several small attachments with different torx sizes in the handle for about $5 USD (and it's made of metal not plastic so it'll last!) I should also mention that i use rechargeable batteries in battery packs so if you try that method with the usb, you may want to use rechargeable NiMH or non-Rechargeable Lithium AAA's since they have a slightly higher voltage than regular batteries. I used a fast drying epoxy to better secure and protect the soldiered ends. I drilled holes through the battery cover and the plastic shell and added a small screw to secure the battery door, I drilled another hole in the battery door for the cord to come out through and tied a knot in it so that if the cord got yanked, the battery door would keep the cord from ripping off the board inside. It seems to run best @3.7v like it original lithium battery, but it will run at 5v but it gets hot if it's on too long.

Here's my working design

Also, be sure to only attach to the left and right battery lead dont let the +\- wires touch any of the other battery leads, a good way to this if u want to test it 1st is to use alligator clips to connect +\- wires and use a small square of electrical tape to cover the other 4 leads.

VERY IMPORTANT: You need to use a USB 1.0 Cord, USB 2.0 voltage is too high, that maybe why you got the RED LED

[General Accessories] shahriar5252:
Thank you for your reply. The pictures that you attached are too small to see what is connected to what. From what I understand, you are trying to use NiMH rechargeable batteries of non-rechargeable AAA batteries in place of the original battery. How do you fit AAA batteries in there? What exactly did you soldier to what? A schematic hand diagram would be nice in addition to zoomed-in photos.

I was more thinking of buying another battery for the phone from ebay for about $10 and taking its gut out and putting resistors inside the battery so that the batteries voltage would be the same. This way, if I want to make long travels in my car with Sprint Navigation on the whole time, the battery would continually get power from the car charger and put out the same voltage for the PDA device.

I am worried about the original battery having a device-recognition chip in it to regulate the charging of the battery or stopping the charging if the battery gets too hot. From what you are describing, the battery does not seem to have an internal chip that can regulate battery activity or turn off the device when the battery gets too hot. I hope this is the case of my new Sprint/HTC Touch Pro (I used to have a Sprint/HTC Mogul).

It would be nice to get a 2nd battery from ebay, take out its gut, and fit small resistors there, and render it as a "fake" battery. This way, I will be able to swap the real battery with the fake one whenever I have to use Navigation system in my car. And by attaching the car charger to the device's USB, I can power up the device through the fake battery without having to worry about battery drainage or turning off of the device from recharging and using the battery at the same time. Do you have any suggestions on how to do this or have you tried to do this yourself?
[General Accessories] curiousandroid:
sorry about the pic, the forum wouldnt let me upload full sized version, i'll try to us a link instead and put it on photobucket.

I think the regulatory chip for lithium batteries is normally stored in the battery pack itself, you cant see it unless you peel off the plastic layer on the outside of the battery, also inside the pack you will find a couple of generic lithium cells, that can be replaced with same voltage/size cells from many other pda/phone battery packs, though it does require a bit of careful soldiering the cells to the regulatory chip and battery harness. BTW "AAA" batteries don't actually fit in the device, but i plugged them in via usb battery pack to the usb plug i soldiered into the device. I suppose it may be possible to fit 3 "AAAA" batteries in the device since they are thinner, but they probably wouldn't last too long between charges.

the reg chip probably connects through the middle 4 prongs that I don't use [+||||-]

re: xip whaddaya mean? nothing new in the way of drivers, b/c was from other device.. if you mean do i think it's legit, most definitely.. although it also has most definitely been modified.. so how much of it is legit cannot say.

But enough that it functions normally, and there are at least several dlls with updated function calls, although one or two is missing from 21014, but again can be chalked up to beta and the changing state of things..

After I wake up from a nice sleep i'll get to porting CHome and the Lock screen.. that should leave this build fairly complete :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] player911:
Neato.

There is a blurry video up at FuzeMobility.com on the first page. Can hardly really see anything.

From what I could make out, it seems like your basic WM6.1 with a Blackjack style Sliding Panels

Admin edit: Images removed due to legal complaint from microsoft.

The video I saw had a blue theme (which is basically just a background change).

IE8 looked like it had a few improvements over IE6 we currently have. I didn't see anything about working tabs but I'm not ruling it out either.

Supposedly it supports more gestures for the stock programs without the need of additional 3rd party programs (TouchFlo). It would be interesting to see how WM6.5 handles finger use vs TouchFlo.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] chavonbravo:
I built and flashed this to polaris. Issues are as noted on first post, volume button seems to be mapped to up and down dpad instead of volume control. Confetti wouldn't show up on today screen for me. And any notification at all will freeze up the device. Definitely a beta and needs more work.

I noticed that atlce400.dll is in XIP in the blue angel rom, wonder if it makes a difference, as I moved it over to SYS.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Hi guys! Glad things are working well so far. Let's see what I can do in the hour or two I have free before I have to go take care of business..

chavonbravo: Yeah, the XIP was really heavily modified on the source blue angel rom, i rebuilt it from scratch to get rid of all that hubbub.. some very strange decisions on what to include in xip. also several modules were hex edited in SYS (like windows media player)

Definitely not your typical porting job, had to do alot of cleanup :P
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Looks like the reason for lockscreen and chome not working is that they have been upx compressed, and then modified afterward to protect them..

I'm working on uncompressing them.. bah.. why can't we just have a clean \SYS :P

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
No, it's quite similar :) The reason it's in a new thread is the v5 kitchen is based on a build before ms started to break things by adding new features; all 'legacy' applications work fine on the v5 kitchen.

In this build however, MS has begun transferring API's over to the new standard, and that is causing things to break (like htc volume control)

But plenty of people want to try this. So it's here :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Hmm. Rose is a WinMo standard device though, it's reasonable to assume chome in that build will not support touch.. i will look though and try :)

Edit: Out of time for now, was not able to get the upx packed lockscreen.dll unpacked. Gonna need to do that to debug it and see why it's not working.. or maybe it's not working simply because of the protection that was applied after upxing.. imports section was intentionally destroyed to make it more difficult to analyze.. of course that helps me tons :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] player911:
I consider that a plus in my book. I keep the phone on vibrate at all times. The less buttons on the phone that tend to change my profiles the better.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
Looks like sun_dream split up part of the \SYS into addon cabs, in addition to UPX compressing some components.

In addition to UPX compressing things, the import section was removed from several dll's, and they don't function properly as a result.

Here's a link to the cab's that he posted, 3 cabs, outlooklive, chome, and wmwidgets are the ones he removed. however it looks like some of those are UPX compressed also and don't work.. freeze the device after a soft reset.

Are you living in Hong Kong?

I have encountered the similar problem for 2 days.

I switched my SIM card to "3" and "PCCW", the problem resolved.

I have asked HTC to check and confirmed that it was the problem of my cell phone company- Smartone Voddafone.

They found a trick to solve this problem.

Just change the APN of the internet setting from "XXXXXX-internet" to "INTERNET". Then it will work.

But the problem resolved spontaneously since yesterday's 6PM.

It was likely that SMV was doing something for these 2 days.

Hi, can anyone help me please?

I'm losing my company voda phone (sim card) as I'm being made redundant, and swapped it out for an Orange payg sim last week. All seemed to be working fine. However, I tried to call my phone today, and it just goes straight to answerphone. I contacted Orange CS, and they sent me some sim updates. Rebooted, and Orange CS managed to place a call to my phone. Sorted. Or so I thought. Just tried again, and it's still going to answerphone. Have I messed my phone up somehow? I know my 2 year old daughter was palying with it at the weekend, and managed to call one of my friends for 2 mins!! Could she have changed something else?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] diegodargo:
Check call forwarding in the phone settings.

You can adjust how long it takes to divert to voicemail here. Perhaps this is your culprit?

Make sure that the top checkbox (forward all incoming phone calls) is unchecked also.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] synet:
Thanks for the suggestion, but seems to have sorted itself out now :confused:

I have been swapping the sim cards around, and trying different phones. I guess one of the reboots must have done something? Anyway, all working again :)

Check This Out

All folks who have this issue may want to check out this thread.

The calls going straight to voicemail may be a symptom of NSI as defined in the thread linked above. As of right now, there is no cure except a soft reset or perhaps going back to a 6.0 ROM.

Hi all.

I'm trying to change the icon for my lnk.

I have a little problem it is allways the same icon (not the Windows but a grey one) which is shown , even changing the number of the icon

here is my lnk : 23#ctlpnl cplmain,20,2?shellres.dll,-13954

do you know dll like this one ?

I've changed to have 1 ,1000000 instead of 13954 : nothing changed

I tried google to know what's wrong , seems my syntax ok

if somebody is good in this matter , please help me

EDIT :

i've found what was wrong

I have to create a new lnk , because it seems when modifying on the PDA Windows doesn't take care of the change of the icon and I was modifying with Total Commander my lnk

creating a new lnk it is perfect

so now I have just to look at the existing code for a good dll icon
