[Touch HD General] Prof. Yaffle:
This may sound like a daft question but stick with me. I've just been having a play around with MyPhone from Microsoft on my Touch HD and my Vox backing up messages from my old phone to my HD. I have a message thread in there that's long and has Older/Newer at the top/bottom. Now I don't very often have very long message threads so I can't remember if Older/Newer has always been there on the HD or if it's as a result of MyPhone? I can't remember seeing it since getting the HD in November but that could just be because I've not had any long enough message threads. Also, is there a way to disable it and show the whole message thread?

Thanks.

Hi all, a great informative site you have here. Hopefully I will a part of the community some day.. not yet a windows mobile phone owner yet.

One thing that I would like to know is if the Touch HD can perform dial up connection to a remote server and run terminal emulator apps like the pocket putty to perform administrator commands.

I'm providing server support for a client that still uses dial up access hence dial up capability will be the deal-breaker since if it can't be done on the Touch HD, I'll have to get a laptop(use a usb cable connection to my current phone to dial up). Can't afford to get both :D

I just hard reseted my HD and whenever I browse the internet, using any browser i just browse like 2 or 3 pages and then, even if the wifi is still on all the pages refuse to load. What could be the problem?

Thanks XD

I'm not sure I understand you correctly. Are you having issues with your mail syncing from you phone to outlook? Do you want the messages to display in subfolders? Try syncing with your mail account with a GPRS / EDGE / 3G signal if you paid for a data plan see if you can sync that way.

I would honestly reflash a ROM on your device. It's not that difficult to backup your setting. You can use a program like Sprite Backup or use other applications to back up your personal stuff like contacts, appointments, messages, etc.

PIMBackup 2.8 is one of the best and easiest ways to backup your data.

I don't know if you can disable notifications individually but if you navigate to Start > Settings > Sound & Notifications, you can disable missed calls notification. There might be some 3rd part apps that might be able to do this or in the specific ROM / dialer that you are using.

Hmmm this I do not though. Though from reading your post I did some research on PockPuTTY. Pretty interesting app. The HD has the ability to do Internet sharing so if the computer has a USB port you should have the ability to use this app.

What ROM / Keyboard ard you using.

I believe there is a intalian version of this keyboard out there. Or one that included Italian. Try bring up the SIP menu and then navigating toch input settings to see if it's available.

@alltheway (and thanks in advance)

email syncs fine from outlook just in the root of inbox the messages wont sync. WMDC does not even let me check the root of the inbox and I think it's because there are subfolders in the inbox (which get synced flawlessly anyway)

3g data subscription aint an option i fear :(
[Touch HD General] jonathancano:
What ROM / Keyboard ard you using.

i have a touch Hd t8282

on a side note i am new to this device (upgraded from a herald) so any help will be greatly appreciated. this is a whole lot of device compared to the herald and i would like to use it for all its worth. . .just need to be pushed in the right direction. Thanks
[Touch HD General] CliveEP:
You guys are legends, this site has been a fantastic resource for me throughout my time with WM devices, so firstly - thanks for the hard work and dedication you put it, its very much appreciated.

Anyway, this is my 1st post for a while as I left the scene when I sold my Kaiser, now Im back with a HD - its a damn fine device. Ive noticed that Dutty has ported his ROMS over, and my question is, what are the benefits of using his ROM? Ive looked at the posts and his site and all I can see are changelogs, not an actual breakdown of full benefits.

Thanks chaps.
[Touch HD General] AllTheWay:
Go the mail tap in TF3D. click menu and then select send/receive.

Advanced Configuration 3.3 will work just fine :)

Try opening a your mail first in landscape mode and then clicking on the SIP menu to bring up the keyboard.

Make sure you have a good activesync connection that allows for data transfers. If that does not work still if you have WIFI try connecting that way to see if you can sync OK.

ROMs are a matter of choice to me. What ROMs work perfect for some users don't work for others. I actually like duttys ROM because of the fact hat he has as recent ported the manila to work on the HD. I suggesting trying some ROMs out and see which one works best for you.
[Touch HD General] crashDebug:
@atW thank you for your time, unfortunately nothing was really working the way I wanted so I gave up on this one.

Now there is another thing that bothers me: the utter ugliness of winmo6.1 scrollbar. I have searched through the forum and through google intensively but I haven't managed to find what I needed. I would like to skin it or eventually alter the colors via, like, uitweaker but everything is changeable except the scrollbar. Has this issue been discussed somewhere ? I really could not find it (feel free to delete if inappropriate)
[Touch HD General] AllTheWay:
Nothing that I know of will correct this issue. Maybe somebody else knows of some other 3rd part apps that will do this. However with the advent of Windows Mobile 6.5 there are some new scroll bars that are more aesthetically appealing to the eye.
[Touch HD General] tRAILeRZ:
Hi, yes, USB port is required if I want to use the HD as a modem. I'm actually trying to dial up to the remote server without a computer.

I did manage to find info that dial up is able to be done but the site I found was referring to windows mobile 5. Appreciate any kind soul to confirm this for me in Windows mobile 6.1: In Settings>Connections, "Add a new modem connection" under the "My ISP" section, whether "Cellular Line" is there under the drop down menu?
[Touch HD General] jonathancano:

yea see thats the problem. . .my sms and mail does not switch between landscape and portrait. . .it just stays in portrait. Pretty frustrating!!

[Touch HD General] AllTheWay:
I will check this for you when I get home and let you know the outcome.

Try a third party app that allows for g-sensor screen rotation like Flip_It.

[Q] HTC HD Keeps Vibrating

Hi, does anyone have a problem like mine?

My HTC HD keeps vibrating, never stop until the phone automatically off when low battery. I already set-off the Vibration function in Settings, Sounds & Notifications. Then I put into Silent mode for Phone & Ring System, still vibrating won't stop . I also did Hard Reset the phone, but still it won't work.

I couldn't use the phone for almost 1 week now cause the Vibrating very annoying.

Any Ideas guys, Thanks A Lot.
[Touch HD General] naymz:
hi

i have a question about this phone..

will winmo7 release for this phone in future?

i really like this phone but i need a phone win winmo7 support couse i really like to experience this OS ....

so do you think HTC will release this OS for blackstone?
[Touch HD General] crashDebug:
it's difficult to tell whether htc will release or not such an update for blackstone, but you can stay sure: if blackstone can run it, our great chefs will deliver :)
[Touch HD General] AllTheWay:
I seriously doubt it but we still don't even have WM6.5. Might as well wait for that first.

I would flash the original shipped ROM again. After flashing the ROM perform a hard reset and see if the problem persist.
[Touch HD General] tsoby4:

Internal GPS has *GONE*

HTC Touch HD.

GPS apps including Copilot Live and TomTom 7 worked just fine.

Installed BasicGPS but it could not find the internal GPS.

Now nothing can find the internal GPS.

QuickGPS now gives me "Connection failed. Please try again later" after I have watched a successful download occur.

HTCGPSTool gives me a "Failed to send NMEA command" when I click Open. I have tried various COM ports and baud rates.

I connected an external Bluetooth GPS device to COM1 and all the apps see it and work with it just fine.

I am thinking that my gpsdriver or GPSID or CurrentDriver or other settings have been rubbished, but I have nothing to compare them with. Does anyone have a dump of these settings that do work?

Can anyone suggest anything else to try before I give it a hard reset and spend days reinstalling?

Two Questions and One Comment

I am sorry to ask probably a dumb question but Ive read the PDF files and still can't figure a couple things out;

1. Is there a way to have the HD turn on when i hit any of the bottom phone/home or back buttons? .. currently i can only activate by pressing power ?

2. I have my time set on my HD and its correct, my time zone is also correct and when i send sms/email etc the time is correct however when i get a sms/email it is four hours behind, Im stuck and cant figure out what I am missing?

3. My HD works great except for one thing, when i use the slider bar on the 3D it all works as designed unless I hit the contacts softkey(grey button), it crashes 3D and restarts and repeatidly crashes but all other soft keys work perfect, as does the unit, soft and hard resets make no difference and I have build 1.14 12/09/08

Thanks for your assistance ... Jim

What do you mean active the bluetooth. Did you turn it on in Start > Settings > Connections or by going to the Comm Manager? I assume that is what you are talking about.
[Touch HD General] alixoft:
Guys,

Since about a week I've been searching for an application for my Touch HD which silently captures a picture with the front VGA camera and sends it to an email adres, without making it noticable.

I've been searching through the XDA forums and the allmighty Google, but the only thing I came across was an Iphone version.

A program like that would be great for anti-theft of a phone, since it can send gps-locations, a picture and other information to an email using the wireless internet connection.

First of all, does anyone know a program such as I described?

Second: if none of these programs exists for WM6+, ain't this a great idea for the greatly appreciated softwaredevelopers?

Thanks in advance for your help!
[Touch HD General] shwiten:
yes it is it

i tried both and nothing happen
[Touch HD General] tRAILeRZ:
Hi ATW, how's the outcome?
[Touch HD General] AllTheWay:
I would then try a hard reset or uninstall any third party apps that that you have installed that might be causing an issue.

Questions on email and bluetooth...

Hi, it has been a week since I got my HD and I love it.

I had LG KS-20 before and it worked very well. After I got my HD, I noticed some differences between those two, but nothing major I thought. After a few days however, I found several problems. I went through the Blackstone wiki page and searched and read lots of information on this forum for a few days but I could not find answers. I am seriously hoping any of you experts can help me on these problems.

1) My emails get deleted automatically after some time. I can not find a way to keep those emails. I need to keep some of the emails in my HD to refer later.

2) I can not transfer any types of files to my HD through Bluetooth. I can send files to my LG KS-20 and Laptop from my HD not vice versa. It seems that my HD does not have services for file transfer like other devices.

3) After I followed the steps in the Blackstone wiki tips and tricks page to get rid of the ActiveSync Auto-Run problem, I am still getting the Activesync kicks in automatically.

4) This is somewhat related to #3. My HD is running at average 50% of ram most of times. It looks pretty high. Maybe I am wrong. Is it because Activesync always kicks in?

With LG-KS20 I did not have any of those problems except that it has slower processer that it does not give same web surfing experiences like HD. Anyway, I do not think HD should have any of those problems that I mentioned above.

Please help me out with all the problems that I am having. Thank you for your help in advance.

Am I asking something too obvious to some people except me? I have been waiting for someone to come forward and help me but no replies for 4 days? Please help me or direct me how to solve these problems cause I am getting frustrated. I just sent an email from my HD and it just wiped my received emails in my inbox. I looked everywhere but they just disappeared, period. Some help please?

USB internet to phone

Hi,

My phone plan does not have a internet usage on it so I cannot browse the internet that way, and no-one with wi-fi lives on my street so i was wondering if I could browse the net via a usb cable on my touch hd? I need to activate kinoma play etc.

Thank you for any help you give me in advance.
[Touch HD General] AllTheWay:
Sorry I did not get back to you sooner. I have attached an image for your convenience. Hopefully this is the right area that you are talking about. Let me know if there is anything else you would like for me to test for you.
[Touch HD General] AllTheWay:
Yes just establish a relationship with your pc either via activesync or window mobile device center and you should be fine.
[Touch HD General] mattgrox:
Thanks for the reply but I still am not sure as what to do, what I mean is I have internet on my PC but I need it on my phone, I know you can use the phone as modem, is it possible to reverse this using the computer as a modem for my phone? If it is could you please tell me exactly what to do?

Thank you once again.
[Touch HD General] Zom:
For the next poor soul that has this problem and gets no help from the "experts" - the problem was that the active driver [Mobile Device\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active\71] had been uninstalled by the GPS program, which made the internal GPS invisible. Recreating the key from you initial Registry dump should solve your problem.
[Touch HD General] AllTheWay:
Yes you can. If you have Vista download and install Windows Mobile Device Center. If you have Windows XP download and install ActiveSync 4.5. Establish a sync with your phone and your PC. You should now be able to access the internet from your phone.

Hi guys i just noticed that my HD has 3 dead pixels...what should i do ?

Does the warranty cover this ?

You'll find a warranty guide within the box of your HD.

hi all,

spent the last few days reading non stop and cant wait to get really stuck in to messing about with my touch HD..

i have a few questions to start with..

have searched this thread for answer to my first question.

when going to the settings>todayscreen>items tab what exactly do the options there do?

i have ticked unticked moved up and down in order changed the time out value and turned it off and i cant see any changes on the today screen.

i apologise now if this is a rather dumbass question...

are there any theme editors out for this phone yet?

Help

A few frustrations with my new HD, after several years experience with Blue Angel, Prophet and Diamond. Hope someone can help...

1. In Excel, there seems no way to change to landscape view by screen rotation - either by using the accelerometer, or via settings. Is there a simple way to solve this?

2. After installation, GCS Tiny Reader does not show in program list, and can only be started by opening the program location using File Explorer and clicking on it. Doesn't matter whether it is installed on card or device. Program then works fine, but process has to be repeated each time the program is closed Is this a known problem? Any remedy? I've tried linking to Windows and Program folders. Program has no effect, and Windows folder cannot be edited with File Explorer. Guess I have to try TCommander next.

3. Several times, Battibar failed to start after a soft reset. Same as for Tiny reader, it doesn't show in programs, and has to be restarted via file explorer and find the program. Again, is this a known issue? Any solutions?

4. UTA v3 was installed, but not run yet. Every time I soft reset, I get an error message saying UTA config file was not found. This is a little weird... it's a new 'phone and card, and the UTA program was never run on it yet. And the UTA program file installed without errors.

5. I'm running ROM 1.14.404.3 NLD dated 12/9/08. I want to change to an English ROM, and have downloaded WWE 1.14.405.3, which I believe is the latest WWE shipped ROM. Can anyone confirm this? I'm thinking to use USPL 2.4 to do the update. Has anyone tried this reflash, and will it work? Reason for USPL is that it is a new 'phone, so I want to retain the possibility to revert to original SPL and ROM fairly easily if it needs service. Also, I couldn't find a link to the original NLD ROM. Does anyone have a copy of 1.14.404.3 NLD they can upload to the ftp server?

6. Is there a small program available that enables remapping of the volume buttons? I would really like to remap them to the up/down function of the Diamond D button, to make the readers easier to use.

Lots of questions! Thanks very much AllTheWay for all your efforts in moderating this thread - very useful, and it's helping to keep the other Blackstone threads much cleaner.

Hi guys,

So far I could look up everything what I ever needed but not this time.

Is it possible to change the font size in SMS messages? I can't figure it out and I really dislike by longer sms messages the char counter gets hidden underneath the keyboard.

What about "drop down" (up?) menus + Start menu?

Hi folks,

I downloaded Montecristoff's HD Tweak. This allows to reenable the screen orientation switch, so that solves the rotation issue when using Excel.

Unfortunately nobody created a tweak to map the volume keys yet. I've put in a request but am not clever enough to do it myself.

One more question... Tiny Reader installs correctly, either on the card or on the machine, but in both caes it doesn't subsequently show up in Programs. So has to be started via File Explorer. Guess I will use a file editor to post a link to the root Windows directory, but does anyone know why this is happening with some programs on the Blackstone?
