I would recommend to everyone to stay away from cheapo "china" LiIon batteries.

If you don't know *for sure* that the particular brand of replacement LiIon batteries YOU are buying is manufactured to industry standards with all the necessary protection circuitry and venting holes etc.,

stay away

from them and buy a battery made by HTC, even if it's more expensive or appears to have lower capacity.

The amount of electro-chemical energy stored in LiIon batteries is alot larger than most people expect. I for one would not like to have this happening in my pocket: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCWdnjLqVWw&feature=related

(yes, this LiPoly was deliberatly overcharged but nevertheless it shows what can happen in a worst-case scenario)

[Touch HD General] eraz0r:
ok, at first I will using my original htc battery again.

With "automated profiles" I am able to increase it's lifetime up to 2-3 days

I have also sent an email to the momax support (1 week ago). No answer up till now.

But I really would like to know why these contacts (backside of the battery when inserted) could be missing.

@mikemod: Do you have any new information on this?
[Touch HD General] renegade:
Same here

I'm starting to have similar problems, the battery begins loosing charge very quickly then sticks at a certain percentage for an hour or so the again loses charge. A full charge lasts about 8 hours only. Back to the original HTC :(

My battery is 1.5 months old. I've emailed Momax with no replies yet.
[Touch HD General] kaushama:
Yes their product support sucks! There is a six year warranty but when I received a defective battery straight out of package, I emailed them twice. No reply at all. I guess i have to go to HK to get the replacement!!!!!!?

Why do you need T9 if you have a full keyboard?

I have another question regarding the hardware keyboard. How can I turn off that the word after a punctuation mark (. ! ?) is written capitalized? I already found this option for the software keyboards but this doesn´t have an effect on the hardware keyboard.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Des.Yalta:
Hello.

I have Qtek 2020 and need a more powerfull bluetooth stack, then MS. I understand, that stack from Widcomm is enough for my tasks, but when try to install it, always get a error "The bluetooth radio failed to turn ON due to insufficient driver memory available...". So, I cannot run Bluetooth Manager.

I have read many articles regarding this, and know that this is a common error of Windows Mobile, and also have found many differents ways to resolved this with Widcomm BT, like, rename two dll's, Soft Reset, remove all programs from StartUp folder, turn off a services which don't need. BUT all of them didn't help to me.

I hoped that this is a problem only for Qtek 2020, but have the same situation and for Qtek 9100.

1. Do you have any ideas, common advices for fixing this?

2. Can I setup network between BB and PDA using bluetooth via another stacks, without Active Sync?

Thank you.

I recently I upgraded my HTC Touch Diamond ROM to 1.93 by unlocking the device. I also formatted everything when installing the new OS. After that, I no longer cannot run mapking. I received "We're sorry...a problem has occured ith manila.exe" message and mapking crush....

Can any body help me the solution ???
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Kevbodian:
Try performing a hard reset and report back.

Also, please tell us more about your device.

ps - hard reset: hold volUP and the center button while pressing reset. you should get a gray screen with 2 options. Press volUP again at this point. When it's done, it will tell you to press volUP to reboot.

What Information I need to provide ? I am now in Malaysia and bought from S'Pore phone shop. I think my phone warranty is only for SG.

I cannot download ROM Upgrade version from HTC. The message .."sorry. this software...." was displayed. Then, I used CID Unlocker to upgrade my ROM...

Actually, my Mapking was running in last version of ROM. It just happened after upgrade to 1.93.

What else i need to provide ?

Hi Guys/Gals,

I'm VERY new to all of this, as far as I was concerned, FLASHING was a bloke in a dirty mackintosh!

I do hope that I'm posting this in the right section (like I said I'm new to all this)

I have (had) an O2 XDA Exec, it had WM5 on it, and my (idiot) boyfriend decided that I should have WM6. I trusted him to do this (I know, I'm too trusting too :rolleyes: ). During the installation, using active sync, Vista decided that it knew better and everything went kapput!

I'm sorry that I can't desribe it in your techie speak.

All I have now is a blank screen, and when I plug it in to charge the red light comes on.

ANY and all help would be VERY VERY much appreciated.... and if I may, could I ask that any help is described to me as if you were talking to a 10 year old? :)

Many, many thanks.

Hope Not

Check and read the WIKI for Universal and am pretty sure you can find some answer in there. I nearly bricked my Exec once but every information i needed is in the WIKI. By the way is there anything on the screen? Have you tried doing a hard reset?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] MissGuided:
Where to start?

Thanks Sandi76,

There is nothing on the screen at all, I've tried doing a soft reset and a hard reset and still nothing.

I'm looking at Wiki now, but I honestly don't know where to start. It must be the blonde (natural of course ;) ) in me!

So, if someone could just help me to get started, it would be appreciated.

....and my boyfriend will be very happy about not having to sleep in the shed! :D

Thanks again,

PS. I'm not going to let him touch my phones EVER again!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] wovens:
There is hope!

Hi,

I think the first big problem is Vista. I've heard that Vista is not friendly to the ROM updating process. I may be wrong and somebody may have solved this but I would suggest that you get hold of a computer with XP in it to try to restart the updating process.

Second, can you put the phone in bootloader state? (press the two option buttons and reset hole at the same time) If so, you can flash your ROM again. I know, i know, to press the three at the same time you need a bit of help...maybe your bf can help with this...:D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] MissGuided:
Never again!

Thanks so much Wovens,

I've tried the reset to factory settings and pressed the 0 key, and it just says Clearing..., goes off and then nothing happens.

(I must have very long fingers because I can do it myself, and my b/f needs never come near my phone EVER again!)

I'll have to search about for someone with XP. I think that all my friends use Vista???

Do you think that finding an XP machine is my first step?

Thanks guys... I REALLY do appreciate your help you know?

i stumbled accross your post and thought i'd try to help as ive flashed a hermes, artemis, magician, universal and more using xp and never had any problems. i would give xp a try before giving up
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] wovens:
Some more info

Hi again,

if you only have Vista, read this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=292631 it may help.

Again, I would do it with XP. It may be that something got partially flashed when b/f tried, so, factory settings will not work because they are not there any more. You will need to flash again. There is also, if I remember correctly, a way of flashing via SD card that bypasses the computer process. But you would need the phone fully charged or till battery light shows green as you don't have anything showing on screen right now.

Regards,

Wovens

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sandi76:
IF there's a will there's a way...

Although i had flashed my ROM under Vista i am not going to recommend it because of the hassle of reinstalling the old driver for your exec, and the process is just a pain but it's worth it once you've done it. Try XP. But if it will not work check and read the whole wiki of Universal and am sure the answer you are looking for will be there. By the way can you go on the bootloader mode? perhaps you can try the mtty utility under 'How to upgrade your ROM' in the Universal WIKI.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] wicksie:
Hi MissG, I recently resurrected my old Exec and had the same problem (trusting Vista Ultimate), I thought I had bricked the Exec but then read the wiki and found this:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader

I know you think the screen is blank but look very very closely and hopefully you will see that it is in fact showing the v. as in the screenshot, if so then follow this and praise be to Xda Developers - good luck

Cheers

Wicksie
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] MissGuided:
Lost hope?

OMG! You're right. I actually did read that on wiki yesterday and tried it, but couldn't see anything.

So I just gave it another go (just in case) and it is there. Incredibly faint and small I can't read what it says, but I can see that there is some writing there.

So, all is not lost then?

I've had no luck finding an XP machine yet though, so I may have to resort to partitioning my machine here (which I don't really want to do... knowing my luck recently, I'll also have to join several other forums to fix my PC!)

God bless the internet, God bless forums like these, God bless all of the people that help :)

It's like having a complete library in my bedroom.

Thanks again, and thanks so much for all of your help. I'll let you all know how I get on with it.

There is not any risk of using Vista, it´s just to learn another way to do it

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] amnya:
Hello,

First of all, I hope am posting in the correct location. Anyways, in windows mobile, we receive different tooltips, ex: call summary report from the provider, credit report, and many others, the ones am talking about are the tooltips that appear on the top right corner of the screen.

These tooltips are so annoying since the buttons they carry are totally not finger friendly. After using "Yota Phone" on my HTC Touch Pro, i noticed that they mapped/changed the default tooltips with the title "PHONE" with their own nice finger friendly one.

Is there any program that does such a thing? searched a lot and couldn't find any. If nobody knows a program that does this, can someone tell me what are the commands/code of those functions/events? maybe i would do a small application for that one.

Thank you

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] computerjunkie:
I'm not exactly sure how this could be done but I there is another application on XDA that changes the way our Context Menus look. He does is via dll injection and my guess is that that is how to do this also.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m.schmidler:
This would be awesome, I hate those little popups as well!!!! Maybe you could ask francarl (creator of FingerMenu), your idea sounds similar to what he did.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] francarl:
thank you m.schmidler. I was thinking about how to replace standard tooltip. It will be very useful if someone finds which is the Win32 API (if exists) that opens the tooltip!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JukEboXAuDiO:
I would totally use this! Anyone wanna pick this up?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] amnya:
Great to see you guys interested in this idea, but wish someone could actually implement it. If only creators of "Yota Phone" would reply. Since they successfully changed the "Phone" tooltip.

If only they share the knowledge. already posted a question regarding this matter on their thread, but no replies on that so far.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] AthenaLod:
i hope this will change from within the OS itself in the coming WM 6.5 or at least WM 7. microsoft should hire you, francarl, or buy your FingerMenu code :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Star-Lite:
I mean the standard "Are you sure" type of popups, the square ones in the middle of the screen with the impossible to hit tiny square OK 'button'.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] amnya:
Oh, yeah those too are so damn annoying!

If there are things that amaze me in pocket pc they are the following:

1. PPCs are more than 10 years old, and we still have THAT FEW RAM with SUCH SLOW PROCESSOR?

2. A message to Microsoft, WTF are you doing? We here at XDA can create a better OS with MUCH smarter tools and you as an enterprise suck that much in your own OS?

Hope we get a fix / program for the tooltip AND those middle confirmation messages, like the one that appears when you try to shut down the device. Buttons are non user friendly and still needs a stylus. Idiotic menus/tooltips.

I'd like to know this too, because it's an item in the start menu I hardly ever use and the menu would look way better without it.

The icon automatically hides when there's no connection with the network. Not true.

The icon automatically hides when there's no connection with the network at boot and shows when network connection is established.

The icon gives access to some GPRS related services.

[HTC Vox] TheBo:
Haven't tried to delete it...maybe i should try to move it somewhere else...btw have you tried deleting it and everytime you boot it regenerates?
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
Yes, it is there after each reboot, whether you deleted it or not. But you might be able to fix this with Mort Script or something similar. Put a script in the start up folder, which delets it after each reboot! But I have never used Mort Script, you have to find somebody who knows the scripting language!

BTW: if you hide it with Resco Explorer it's still there!
