Ok installed Resco and tried to delete, didnt work, renamed the files and tried to delete... woo hoo it worked... no wait the files are still there in the windows directory... doh!!! oh well hard reset it is... many thanks for the advice...
[XPERIA X1 General] Mr Anderson:
You might want to think about backing up the remainder of your card and formatting it again.

Mine was a 16GB card which started with the mapsettings.cfg corrupting (several times - I learnt to take a backup of it into main memory). Then when I tried to archive the card files I found several more corruptions. I simply deleted everything and started again, but didn't re-format.

I noticed more recently that some of my Sprite backups were failing to restore but ignored it, assuming they were just glitches.

Last week I was messing with other ROMs, so I took TWO backups (Sprite and Resco, knowing the Sprite ones were proving a bit flaky). When I tried to restore back data after flashing back to original ROM I found BOTH backups were corrupt. Furthermore, I found the whole card was unreadable and I couldn't access any data on it.

I wish now I had reformatted the card while it was still partially working. Now it is totally stuffed and I can't rescue it at all.

In all my years of geekdom and gadgeteering, this is the worst nightmare I have ever had (four manual rebuilds in a week...ouch!).

It is worth considering...;)
[XPERIA X1 General] Shadowdh:
Thanks for the tips Mr Anderson... I ended up hard resetting and once I did that the ringtones were ok and I could access my ringtones too...
[Touch HD General] stsalkit:
It happened virtually the second day I had my HD - I looked at the clock and the time shown was one hour and some minutes off. I did not pay any attention at that time. Since then, I have been synchronising it with my PC, so I guess it was updating its clock automatically. This until today... I did not sync and about midday, I noticed again that the clock was off by more than an hour. Mind you I have thicked the option of it syncing the time from the operator.

Any thoughts? This is really annoying since I rely solely on HD for alarms... especially in the morning.

Thanks in advance
[Touch HD General] hugobon:
off time...

It happened to me too, twice even. But not on the same

day but days apart. What I discovered was if you use

3G, then the trouble starts. In my place, 3G is unreliable,

and the signal strength goes in and out, and sometimes,

no signal. If no signal, then no time sync with operator.

I switched to GSM and everything is ok again.

Anybody here having problems with late time under 3G??
[Touch HD General] stsalkit:
Interesting observation regarding the 3G connection to time. I usually have it on GSM for battery reasons, but sometimes I switch it to 3G. However, today I believe I had it constantly on GSM... and it did happen. The strangest thing is that it goes off not by minutes but more than one hour (at least in my case). Anybody else with a similar observation?
[Touch HD General] hugobon:
time inaccurate

Hmmm, I don't have the problem when on GSM at all.

However, I also noticed that if you pullout your phone

from your pocket/bag using the touch screen area instead

of the sides, you automatically activate the time configuration screen area. Maybe this is the cause. Try

observing on how often you grab your phone via the screen

instead of the sides, especially if you are in a hurry or

unaware of it.;)
[Touch HD General] hherceg:
I have the same problem with clock. The phohe changes time itself, happened three times to me. Does anyone has the solution to this problem?
[Touch HD General] GLOC:
I have this issue when I am out of GSM coverage (which sometimes happens when I have the phone with me in the bedroom at night, Orange coverage poor here).

Somewhat annoying to find the clock 30 mins late :(

Hey..

are there any other ICQ clients for Android besides meebo and IM+ which both have two downsides for me :(

meebo: I only see the ICQ number of the contacts, not the (custom) names

IM+: you know, it's not free :(

So.. do you know any other ICQ client?
[G1 Apps and Games] BAD_BOY_KIEV:
Use "Hello AIM!" - search it on the market! Works pretty well! And it's FREE, much better then meebo's app. Use your ICQ# as LogIn. Enjoy
[G1 Apps and Games] gribble:
Thx alot. That app is really way better (at least right now).

[General Questions and Answers] Mole22:
Hi all,

I tried searching but cannot find anything on this, so as my first post, here goes...

I have a Touch Diamond with official ROM (WM6.1). I want to get over the known "issue" that with the device set to pin lock after 0 minute timeout, it still locks automatically after 1 minute of idle time.

Of course, I found an answer on this forum, see, for example http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=291868: in the registry, set AEFrequencyType to 2 (instead of 1), which works as hoped as far as the device is concerned... it no longer auto-locks after any amount of time, but locks instead whenever it goes into standby.

The issue is this: Activesync no longer requires the pin to connect to the device and without pin can read ALL files from its memory, even if the phone is locked at the time. Setting AEFrequencyType back to 1 forces Activesync to require the pin even if it is not locked when it is plugged in to the computer. Does anyone know a way to force Activesync to require the pin... of course, I am looking for a setting on the device, not the PC, as I want to make it hard for anyone who might steal the phone (or if I lose it!) to read the data on the device.

In case anyone is wondering, I also found another workaround. Having set the pin timeout to some large time, like 30 minutes, I can then use a pin locking program, Zenyee's 'Pin Lock.exe', and create a wakeup event notification with Dotfred's Task Manager (seems very useful app for free!). This works, until I run FlexMail, which seems to intercept these notifications and prevent it from locking!! So, I have to override a soft key on the home screen to run the pin lock, then hit the power button to put the device into standby. Not too bad, but there must be a better way...!

Thanks in advance,

Martin
[General Questions and Answers] Mole22:
Just a quick follow up for anyone who may be interested. FlexMail DOES NOT intercept the wakeup events... however, because it causes a little processing to be done, it seems it can delay the device from sleeping for a while (a minute or two) whenever a full synchronisation is performed. So, the wakeup event, whilst normally quick to activate, can sometimes take a minute before becoming effective.

However, I now have a workable solution for me. Just as I said above, I set my Pin Lock timeout to something large, like 30 minutes. However, instead of relying solely on wakeup events, I have now installed Gyrator 2 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=427805) which is an excellent application for many reasons... I particularly like being able to identify the window class/title using the stylus-in event to identify the in-focus window! More importantly, for this issue, it has the option to both Pin Lock and Suspend the device whenever a certain criteria is met. For me, this is when it is held face down for a second. So, now I just do this instead of hitting the power button and I'm guaranteed to have the device Pin Locked on next wakeup. ActiveSync also requires the Pin as AEFrequencyType is the default value of 1. A perfectly workable solution.

All the best,

Martin
[General Questions and Answers] nir36:
I strongly suggest you take this towards the Diamond section as knowledge about specific problems in specific devices are usually conversed over at that specific section.. more than here.
[General Questions and Answers] Mole22:
Thanks, but I think this is WM6/WM6.1 specific, not Diamond specific. The problem with AEFrequencyType set to 1 giving a timeout even with zero minutes is known and seems to be device independent. I just found that setting it to 2 to fix this timeout issue, as many people do, seems to prevent ActiveSync from requiring the PIN as well! Not a good result.

That said, my workaround solution is probably Diamond specific, sorry! Perhaps I should post in the original thread that I found out about the AEFrequencyType registry tweak?

All the best,

Martin

I have recently acquired one of the HTC Touch Diamond units and can't seem to figure out how to get it to connect to the internet using the WI-FI.

Hi. I'd like to know if there's a way to make more HW buttons visible in settings/buttons so that they can be mapped?

I've looked at the registry but that didn't make me any wiser..

I don't want to use X1 button mapper, I just want more buttons to choose from.

Now there's only Left Key and Right Key available.

/Thanks

hi there.there is a program that calls aebutton plus.try that very use full.cheers
[XPERIA X1 General] emwdava:
Yes, I've already tried AE B+ but I didn't like the lag it produces from pressing a button until the action is performed.

I found out today that with SPB pocket Plus you can add buttons to the stock WM6.1 buttonmapper and you can also assign a press+hold function to every button.

I also tried the freeware HButton with which you can assign 5 actions to every HW button in the stock buttonmapper list.

In combination with SPB Pocket Plus this is a must have for me.

No lag at all!!!

/thanks for the tip anyway. ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] JKingDev:
I tried using SPB PP for this purpose and it didnt give me any new buttons. What extra buttons does it let you map?
[XPERIA X1 General] emwdava:
I've so far only tried with the ok button.

After installing spb pp I got an option in the button window that says "Add new button".

Try it and follow the instructions.
[XPERIA X1 General] JKingDev:
Eh. Doesnt work with any other. I shall continue with X1BC. :) I like the fact that HButton vibrates on press and hold. I should add this to X1BC.
[XPERIA X1 General] emwdava:
Hm, I'm gonna try this...

Maybe I got (un)Lucky with the first try.

[Touch HD General] solteron:
Hi

Just not answering :D but how do you do to import firefox bookmarks in opera ?
[Touch HD General] nagging:
- Install Opera

- Use free "Transmute" (http://www.gettransmute.com/) to convert your FF bookmarks into a file called "opera6.adr" (name will be created automatically).

- Export "opera6.adr" from the Opera directory into HD Touch/My device/Windows/Opera 9. Confirm replacing the original file. That's it!

But now, who's got the answer to my original question? :)

'want to know how to do? I found this: http://my.opera.com/community/. Be patient, it takes quite a while to upload the full contents of your FF/Opera bookmarks
[Touch HD General] kucher5:
You can try this script, to import bookmarks from a html file to opera mini. I am not sure about Firefox, but bookmarks.html from Chomium exported without a problem. you need Bash on your Android and root access.

in a terminal emulator type:

bash omsync.sh -m /path_to_your/bookmarks.html

Make sure that you did the backups of all important config files of Opera or complete duplication of "/data/data/com.opera.mini.native" directory before doing anything.

You can also make test with command:

bash omsync.sh -m /path_to_your/bookmarks.html -o /tmp/test

look /tmp/test for your bookmarks. if no errors, run this command without -o option.

I currently live in Jordan and the HTC touch HD has just arrived, but at a cost. Because the pound is having such a bad time it works out to £810, but it is operator free as are all phones here. I'll be returning to the UK for a months holiday shortly and wonder if I take out an o2 contract, will the phone be locked onto this network like Orange or will it be unlocked?

I did email mobiles.co.uk as they seem to have some good deals, however they ignored my request and therefore obviously don't need my custom.

Perhaps I should buy an unlocked one off ebay and continue to use my PAYG sim cards.

cheapest htc touch hd contract

Hi,

My First post here on Xda :)

I got My Htc touch HD (Blackstone) on Orange contract , I googled the Cheapest ,lowest priced deal anywhere in Uk as far As I can tell.

It was from : www.buymobilephones.net , They are based in the Uk , I ordered My Phone On sunday Night 2am! , got the Blackstone on Tuesday Morning By Special Deliverly Next Day! The Price of the phone was £59.99 , with Orange Racoon 20 (24months) , the line rental is £19.57 per month.

This is the cheapest way to get a HTC TOUCH HD , better than buying unlocked for £499 , or direct from orange shop £79.99 for phone plus £45 per month rental charge , also www.buymobilephones.net do the Phone with an 02 Unlocked , available from Mobiles.co.uk ( their website keeps messing up when you try to place an order , so stay clear of them )

I have unlocked the phone , use my t-mobile chip in it , from htccodes.

Another thing BBC Iplayer works really well this phone , just goto this website and enter www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer/ , But You must use Opera Broswer , as it won't work with IRIS OR IE.

You won't get Flash video working from the main bbc.co.uk website , it has to be special mobile site for flash videos to work.

Is there a way to get the ORANGE logo and intro removed from my phone ?

Hi, find that a tad unfair, many like me have had no problems with them. I had a free HD, £40 off via Quidco and a £35 18 month contract with 600 mins, unlimited texts which I switched first time using the correct number to 500 texts and unlimited Web. Plus £87.50 cashback which I accept I have yet to get for a few months.

Not saying you can't do better but many sites mess up when you try to buy something. I have no special relationship with them but I did have a faultless transaction with them 2 weeks ago.

I am at this point considering abandoning HTC in favour of the blackberry storm due to availability. I had an m2000 for 2 years and an m700 which I love for 18 months. The only reason I am looking at a new phone is the m700's battery is starting to mess about (like all older mobile batteries do) and the recharge connection contacts are starting to wear out of their grooves causing charging issues.
