[Touch HD General] tedkopp:
On my HD calendar Good Friday is shown as the Thursday before, Easter on the Saturday and Easter Monday on Sunday. Also a few other national holiday are a day earlier. Christmas and New Year are OK. I syncronize it with Outlook 2002 on my PC and the dates there are correct.

Any ideas how to fix it?
[Touch HD General] tedkopp:
Solution

After a few hours of fiddling around I did get it to work. I am not sure what exactly did it but here what I did: first I downloaded the latest DST patches from Microsoft for both the HD and Outlook 2002. At this point after syncronizing still the dates were right on the pc and one day early on the HD. Then I clicked off the "adjust for dst" on the pc which now caused Outlook to display the holiday on the right date AND one day early! At this point I deleted all the Holidays and the readded them with the dst off and synced. IT NOW DISPLAYED DATE CORRECTED. I am not sure if it would have worked without the patches but I am not touching anything any more!
[Touch HD General] HappyLlama:
I can imagine :)

I have a simular (?) problem:

On my calendar at work I have added a repeating appointment till 31-12-2009, every Tuesday, 10:00 o’clock.

I sync my HD with this exchange server.

Now, on my HD it starts ok, but per 31-3 it’s suddenly scheduled at 9:00. At 27-10 it shifts back to 10:00 …

Somehow DST seems to throw in an offset of an hour.

What can I say? I hope the people I have those appointments with, do have a HTC Touch HD (or windows mobile) as well :p

man you should read, if your ipl and spl are 2.21 you have G3 Wizard and you should follow its flashing threads! Anyway you did not provide neccesary information to help. So if you did not read and did not understand everything, you should not try to flash the ROM, to keep your device working ;) So any help i can give you is to find a thread which is related for G3 Wizard and read and search there, you can also go to Wizard Wiki for all the information at one place...

Microsoft Impersonator Sends Fraudulent Letters, Disrupts Community

Posted by Chuong Nguyen

March 13th, 2009 at 02:53 PM

It turns out that there may be an impersonator lurking around disrupting Windows Mobile communities. In response to an article that was posted this morning about Microsoft demanding that Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM images that were cooked unofficially be taken down, our own Microsoft MVP Adam Z. Lein spotted that the guy responsible for the letter to XDA-Developers may be a fraud, as was posted on PPCGeeks.

A similar hoax had occurred before at msmobiles in regards to Windows Mobile 6.5 screenshots. In the cease and desist letter to msmobiles, the gentleman claiming to be with Microsoft's legal department asked the site to remove screenshots of the forthcoming operating system

. The letter was sent after Microsoft had publicly announced and shown the very screenshots at Mobile World Congress 2009. According to msmobiles: "In any case, if it is genuine action on behalf of Microsoft, it is a case of extreme incompetence that this guy is showing because he is requesting removal of pictures of something that has been officially announced few days earlier." It should also be noted that pocketnow.com had posted screenshots and news of Windows Mobile 6.5 before, during, and after Microsoft's Mobile World Congress announcement and we did not receive a cease and desist letter.

The community over at msmobiles performed some additional investigations and found that the gentlemam, James Young, sent emails originating from IP addresses in London and not from Microsoft's corporate headquarters in Redmond, Washington, leading many to believe that he is not connected with the software giant. Additionally, emails were sent from internet2@microsoft-antipiracy.com, and not at a "@microsoft.com" email address.

Whatever the case may be, other forum members in our original post here at pocketnow.com made mention that only the Windows Mobile 6.5 cooked ROM made by ROM chef Da_G was affected and 6.5 ROMs for other HTC-made devices were seemingly okay.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] msd24200:
i only hope it is a hoax
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] F2504x4:
I f you read the links I posted you will see that some users and some who work for M$ verified that it was a hoax...;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
Thanks for this.

It has been raised in the Moderators Forum.

I'll closed this thread now because there are a few of them floating around, might as well keep the discussion focused. :)

Might I suggest that if this is found to be a hoax, the site admin (or a moderator maybe) will let you know. We would appreciate it if anyone who has had a takedown notice by the admin adears to it until further notice from xda.

Regards,

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
I'll re-open this thread for discussion.

Can I request that if Flar removed your ROM images / links that you do not re-add them until you here from Flar (or maybe a moderator).

The takedown notice for those images may be genuine.

Thanks

Dave
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] F2504x4:
thank you Dave,

question, since this has affected several hosting sites, what would be the best way to get them to re-think there decisions ? To me I think is not going to be a easy task to do since they are now very unsure of where they stand..legally that is..I doubt the M$ is going to come right out and tell them "all is well" :rolleyes:

Who ever this guy is..he hit a very tender spot and if it was not for a minor slip up this may not have been nipped in the bud as quick as it was..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Synssins:
I have unlimited bandwidth and file space to host...

I am just unsure of the "legality" of ROM images in the US on a file server.

If they are considered legit, and do not contain any illegal software in the ROM image itself, I would be more than willing to host on my 100MBit web server.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stylez:
What a p*ss take but to be honest someone should have noticed the extension on the email address!!! Or even checked into it... "Just want to clarify not pointing the blame @ anyone"

I know now XDA has to do there research on this and comply with any thing that has happened till the all clear is called.

Just shame the ammount of disruption this has caused to chefs and users alike....

With regards hosting sites i think that they will be fines as i imagine the flagged ROMs were reported by the offender and most hosting sites do not have enough time to check every upload to there servers....

Not sure i got anything else to say except lets all get back to usual..... :);):)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] PhantomYoda:
I can speak to that since I am a partner with a game and web hosting company. We do look at the individual files on the box to determine if the reported apps or media violates either our Terms of Service or any copyright laws. We also check into each "report" we get to determine if the report is legitimate, and we do investigate IPs and domains, to determine if they are valid.

In our arena, we do get gaming guilds who pretend to be official companies who try to get us to take down a competitors site or server.

We have also used copyright DMCA ourselves, and we do send email notification, but ONLY after a written certified letter is sent. The email is sent to the listed contact of the company and contains a copy of what was sent via certified mail.

We do this since we normally engage in unofficial conversation if someone has used our copy-righted material to save us money, as most of the time they use it without knowing they can't.

As far as the DMCA goes, we can send notice using our own attorneys, but we HAVE to hire local counsel to serve any legal action notice if we end up going that route. However, we do have a choice of mediation and litigation clause which allows us to use the laws of and conduct legal activity in the state our company is registered in. MS would have to do the same thing.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Link278:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SuperSport:
If it's truly found to be a hoax, I'd sure hate to be "James Young", or whatever his real name is. He may quickly become the target of thousands of hackers. I would imagine with the combined power of everyone effected, he could find himself with:

An Empty Bank Account

Homeless

Late Vehicle Registration/Stolen Vehicle

On the FBI's Most Wanted List/On MI6's Most Wanted List

His Face In Porn Movies/Beastiality Movies

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] -888-:
Use common sense, people! (Admins mainly)

IF Microsoft would have sent any of such letters, it would require you to remove ALL of their products, not just one - isn't it obvious?

I cannot imagine msoft asking xda to remove anything WM6.5 related, but not mentioning WM6.1 and WM6.0 ROMs and files :)

It's like Sony would have ask i.e. The Pirate Bay in a C&D letter to remove links to just 1 movie torrent and not mention links to all other Sony-owned movies present there.

I don't think it ever happened that way.

And letter coming from microsoft-antipiracy.com ? That's a no brainer LOL! It's as credible as if it would have come from microsoftsucks.org

Sure it's a hoax.

You've been pwnd :D

Interesting... the confidentiality notice is often a sub mail server attachment, meaning its attached to the email as it leaves the companie's mail servers, not when it leaves the users outbox... There are universal clauses out there, but since this one matches pretty much 100% it would be safe to say that the company James Young mailed it from and this company are one and the same, or connected through a parent or something like that. Here is the one that my company attaches once the emails leave our intranet and go out:

James probably worked there at the same company that sent the sony notice and got fired, so he's taking it upon himself. Maybe he got served a notice, and got mad that everyone else has it so he is sending out notices himself as a revenge plot... who knows... he has issues thats all.

[G1 Apps and Games] jdc2006:
Iverse media has developed a software to let collectors save comics to SD cards, Iverse Comics Collector. It's a cool thing until I noticed a big problem w/ the whole process. Iverse collector is supposed to free our phone from memory used up by the comics application. It certainly does it's job by storing the comics to SD card. The big issue is w/ uninstalling of the original download which is supposed to free back the used memory. Unfortunately, this is not the case. When I uninstalled the original document, it did not release the used up memory. I tried it w/ two comics with the same observation. I also tried to reinstall the same comics hoping that it will use the previously unreleased memory (kind of on-hold thing) but instead, it used up another space. I also tried uninstalling other programs in the Market (not Iverse) for comparison and they are uninstalling just fine, freeing the used memory. I wonder if this is something unique w/ Iverse comics. Anybody has a clue what'a going on here? Now my G1 is almost out of memory and I may end up doing a factory reset if this remained unresolved...
[G1 Apps and Games] chrisrj28:
No you are totally correct. I noticed this too but it was too late. I had a few installed, even the largest one being the Carnival comic and once uninstalled I didt get the memory back and had to hard reset and do everything over. I dont know what the deal is with those.

[General Topics] crobs808:
Just an idea for all of those with a "fav 5" or "friends and fmaily" type of feature on your plan.

I would recommend adding Google 411 (free directory assistance) to one of your number slots. the number is: 1-800-466-4411

I know that you cannot use this to call friends, but even if you know a business number, call it through Google's 411 service and since they connect the calls it will not use any of your minutes. You can also say "text me" before it connects you and it will send you a txt message with the name, number and address.

Anyway, just an idea. I added it to our new plan we just switched to and now calling Google 411 is considered an in-network calling so it doesn't use any minutes :)
[General Topics] orb3000:
What country are you talking about for this?
[General Topics] crobs808:
Sorry, USA.

I am on Verizon, and I added Google 411 to my list. They go into a "pending" phase for 24 hours before they become active, but it is active now! :) Can call anyone free pretty much via Google. Will be awesome, hehe.
[General Topics] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
Actually, there was an article published a few years ago in

2600: The Hacker Quarterly

(Autumn 2007, Issue 24:3, page 32) that explained how easy it was to add businesses to Google 411, and then how to add your friends and family as businesses in order to call them for free. And I'm not sure you need to even put it into your Fave-Five or other like plans, since it's an 800 number, so it should be toll free.

You just add your friends' and family members' numbers as really obscure named businesses with obscure purposes, like archery if there are no archery businesses around you (so that way you are guaranteed to have your "business" show up.

According to the article, the only thing you need to do to register a business is to have a Gmail/Google account, to be able to answer the phone whose number you gave Google 411, and a special PIN number they gave you when you completed part 1 of the registration process (signing up the number and inputting business information).

Then, you wait a while for Google to update their database, and then just call 1-800-GOOG-411 and look up the name of the imaginary obscure business you input, and make free calls to your friends/family. Although it's kind of impractical, for lengthy long distance calls, I guess it could seriously come in handy.

Although I don't know of any reason this wouldn't work now, this article is a few years old, so Google may have changed the process entirely by now, SO THIS ARTICLE MAY NOT BE ACCURATE ANYMORE!

And if I missed anything in this post, please feel free to correct me.

@Mods, I don't think this post violates any forum rules, but if it does, PM me and I will be happy to take it down. Thanks,
