Hi Guys,

Please I need help in acquiring a 3.5mm miniusb adaptor for my Kaiser. My supplied HTC ear buds have gone bad and presently can only use one earbud. I have plenty of earphones and Headphones to choose from but they are mostly 3.5mm jacks. I found some on the web but they require paying with paypal which I don't have. I dont know any store in my country where I can get one. Am in Nigeria and cannot open a paypal account unless I go about dubiously. So Please can anyopne help me with any suggestions or ideas. I would prefer an adaptor with mic.

Thanks:(

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] harrodal:
Other suggestions?

Any other suggestions guys? would be glad to have one with a mic. Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] deuzeff:
Hi,

I bought this simple thing here. It's a simple adaptor, maybe it would fit your demand :).

I am quite sure it's available like everywhere (not only on Amazon).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] harrodal:
One with mic and i don't have paypal account

Thanks,

But I need one with a mic or external mic capability also I don't have a paypal account so ebay amazon etc will not do it for me. So any other suggestions XDAIANS.:(

I went to my local t-mobile store and bought the $10 adapter for the G1 ... it works fine with the Tilt.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] goldenu:
G1 adapter is the way to go

Confirmed on that - the adapter has it's own mic and works fantastically with every HTC I've used it on (G1, Kaiser, Touch Pro, & Excalibur).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] anagarika:
You can check out this thread. The supplier does take money transfer if that's fine with you .. you can contact them out. I haven't bought any but only checking their website / payment method.

a freeware big photo incoming call app will be good.. icaller seem to be stopped
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
You can always use S2U2.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] leobox1:
what is it? a incoming call app too?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
It's that and much, much more. At it's essence, it's a screen lock, but it dows way more that. Just search for the S2U2 1.62 - Dream thread and check it out.
[General Topics] fatso485:
it is very surprising that file transfer performance hasnt improved a bit in the last years. i mean it takes my xperia the same time to install a cab or to launch the same app from my 6-year-old Magican

is there something that is preventing HTC from using these crazy SLC-based 100+MB/sec flash chips found in new SSD drives. really appriciate any insite on this
[General Topics] oic0:
Those chips aren't really that fast, they are just being run massively parallel in raid like arrays. Even still though, a setup as fast as what they use in compact flash cards would be nice.
[General Topics] fatso485:
- there are some major improvments in flash performance just take any normal flash drive (no RAID-like voodoo going on here) these days and compare it to the ones you used to have 3-4 years ago. the difference is MASSIVE even on low 1GB flash drives.

-what's wrong with running parallel flash chips in a raid-like fashion on a mobile device. it seems like one way to gain massive performance increases only
[General Topics] cktlcmd:
I really don't think it is the chips, it is the CRAPPY Qualcomm processors HTC uses for our expensive phones.
[General Topics] oic0:
With the size of the chips, the price, the controller, etc... would get sort of expensive. For example, an Intel SSD looks like this. http://blog.wired.com/photos/uncategorized/2008/12/02/inside_an_ssd.jpg and costs a fortune. Their controller is the only one sofar that doesn't suck horribly at small file writes.

Look at this little glimmer of hope though :D

http://www.pretec.com/epages/Store....re.Pretec/Products/"news-March 03, 2009.no.2"

Too bad the a phone would probably make horrible use of it. My class 6 card might as well be a class 1 for how well my phone makes use of it.
[General Topics] fatso485:
thats exatly my point. why are $800+ 2009 devices perform identically (internal flash memory) to 2003 devices. people seem to only care about obvious things like CPU speed when hey talk about performance.

It installs mainly to Storage Card, except these 4 files which you can delete to re-gain almost 400 KB of storage:

\Windows\ttn6btn2003.dll

\Windows\BtSdkCE30.dll

\Windows\BtCoreIf.dll

\TomTom\TTToday.dll

Also, I got it working with the latest maps I bought for the Diamond! Sweet!! :D

And before someone's start ranting, it's the Tomtom maps that are illegal to share, not the software, so *DON'T* ask where you can get them: EVER !! Buy them from TomTom, just as I did :rolleyes:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] zeus-web:
installation works, then start screen, then select voice... then it freezes (black screen). Do I need any components? Voices or maps? I have a german map (worked with tomtom 6) on my storage card.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] iRiKi:
well no, you don't even need to have a voice for Tomtom to load correctly.

I got bluetooth GPS and I've been trying to use it with tomtom but for some reason it refuses to work.

Igo8 and Google Maps are working great, but tomtom isn't. Guess I'll need to do more troubleshooting :mad:

Hi

I´m here to say the same that assente.

I confirm TomTom 7.910 with Maps 825.2159 on WM6.1 works!

After a lot of tests i could make it to work, i have cotulla rom update 2

I will explain how to put it to work step by step :

After installing tomtom and proper map ( I installed the versions above )

1 . Start -- Settings -- Connections --Bluetooth -- Add new device ( put the password and finish )

2 . Start -- Settings -- Connections --Bluetooth -- Add new device (In the same spot click in the DEVICE that the bluetooth add and select the SERIAL PORT and SAVE. )

3 . Start -- Settings -- Connections --Bluetooth -- Com Ports ( Click new Outgoing Port, select the com port 7 with secure connection and finish )

4. Start -- Settings -- System -- Bluetooth Setting ( In the Bluettoth serial port setup select the Inbound com port : com4 and the Outbound com port : com5 Click OK )

5 . Start -- Settings -- System -- External GPS

For Programs , choose COM4

For Hardware , choose COM5 Baud Rate 4800

For Access , put it to selected mode

Click OK

6 . Go to TOMTOM

On the GPS Selection Put it Another Bluetooth GPS and COM7 ( The com you have created earlier )

And voilá .... for me worked ....

Cotulla i don´t know if you have tried this , if possible please test it.

Hope this could help you guys

bye

it works with rom update2! It did not with 3.00WWE.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] assente:
it stopped to work :( I repeated the instruction but the ppc doesn't receive anymore data from GPS
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] zeus-web:
when I restart my ppc my bluetooth settings get lost. So maybe you have to check the ports, or pair with gps-device again.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] tobias1981:
Hi

I have HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3.rar loaded on my HTC Magician (XDA Mini).

I can not find this menu point. "System" - "Bluetooth Setting"... Is this not included in version O3 anymore?

Or is this now included in this:

This menu point is named "External GPS" instead of "Bluetooth Setting" - right?

And I think that this interface is only necessary if you want to access the GPS interface with multiple applications at the same time, in the end your manual anyway says "use com7" - so is this of any effect in the end?

Next question:

I have TomTom 7 Version 7.910(9185) running on COM7 - a GPS logger also detects that there is information arriving on COM7, but TomTom keeps on telling me "no GPS device". (Also tested with version TomTom6 - same result)

Does the radio firmware have any effect on this?

My GPS-driver has version 1.20 - card version v720.1802 (information from TomTom7 version info).
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] paulpille:
... obsolete due to Cotullas new ROMs coming soon ...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] tobias1981:
that did the trick somehow. great support, you made my day!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] futaris:
Yep. You need btsettings.exe for O3. Alternatively, you can install GPSGate (or similar).
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] tobias1981:
Is there a good solution to have this application started and configured by default? Right now after every soft-reset I need to restart the application, check the 2 options and confirm everything. This is a little bit unconforable.

Why is this no longer included in the O3 release? Any sense behind this?

And I also still don't understand how this can mess up the communication from TomTom to the COM port. Especially since the 2 Ports COM4 and 5 are not selected at all in TomTom...

But great help, I really appreciate it.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Fire69:
the_butcher, can you explain this a little more?

I'm running Cotulla's 03-ROM, but I can't get TT to connect to my GPS.

I can do all the steps you specified, except for step 4.

I don't have 'Start -- Settings -- System -- Bluetooth Setting', so I can not specify COM4/COM5... :(

I'm searching for this file (btsettings.exe), because i can't install GPS Gate. Does anyone can send me a copy o a link to this file?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Max6Max:
Hi Tavix,

BTsettings for you from WWE_02 rom (thanks cotulla).

For me, Tomtom V7 don't work with WWE_03 rom, I try also with BTsettings but without success.

Let me know if it's OK for you.

I downgrade my Magician in WWE-02 and it's Ok.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Cotulla:
however you should _not_ use BTSettings. It's obsolete now.

Try to use this instuctions:

GPS_setup.rar - 529 Kb

(screens from Russian rom, you need do the same actions in WWE)

Instuction created by zlo-dey-4eg from 4PDA.

It will be good, if somebody do the same instruction with screens from WWE rom...

BT GPS & Tom Tom

Hi Cotulla,

see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb158600.aspx

BTSettings is old but in your ROM’s my BT GPS is not working with Tom Tom, so an additional program is needed.

Herewith I send you my experience with your rom’s

On a Xda II mini (HTC Magician) 64 with WM2003SE, I installed:

HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3, It didn’t work because of wrong radio version. I didn’t make a backup of my old ROM, so I installed HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O1.

After installation Tom Tom 6 (TT6), did start up in this version, so I upgraded again to HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3, this time it worked. But because my Xda II mini doesn’t have a build in LAN/WIFI adapter I have to use a Dopod SD WLAN card. This card doesn’t work with HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3 (driver Dopod not compatible I think), so I downgraded to HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O2. After I installed the drivers for my Dopod, the connection with my network works fine (WPA).

To get TT6 to work I set my settings in WM6 as follows: External GPS, COM0 (programs), COM6(hardware) baud rate 4800, manage GPS automatically (access)

To install my BT GPS I set my settings in WM6 as follows: (see also: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb158600.aspx)

Bluetooth, Connect BT GPS by add new device. Edit connection and select Serial Port and press Save. In ”mode” turn on Bluetooth. In Com Ports press new outgoing port (Com 6) and don’t select Secure Connections. With this setting TT6 doesn’t find my BT GPS on COM0, so I installed an additional program (GPS2Blue) as an additional interface between TT6 and WM6.

You can download GPS2Blue from: (http://users.skynet.be/hofinger/GPS2Blue.html#DOWNLOAD)

It’s freeware !

Start up GPS2Blue . Select GPS COM0, SPEED 4800, BT, COM6 and press ON

Now my “Xda II mini” is connected to my BT GPS. I leave the program GPS2Blue running and I then start up TT6. I select in TT 6 the NMEA GPS, baud rate 4800 on COM 0 and TT 6 is working!!!

Conclusion: With HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O2 on my “Xda II mini” I now have fast internet with Utube etc., TT6, all the mobile phone functions and also the sync. with my agenda and contacts in outlook work fine. I am happy, thanks to you Cotulla!

Best regards,

SDIO
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Montsko:
HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3 with TT7 works

I used btsettings.exe and just turn on "outbound COM port: COM5" and TT7 start receiving GPS data from port COM6 (other GPS device). It's weird, but it worked for me. The problem is that after I restart device I have to run btsetting.exe and turn the COM5 again...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Cotulla:
don't use BTSettings...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] zackhunter:
Thanks @SDIO for your GPS2Blue tip. Works great. Uncheck "secure connection" in bluetooth settings is important, its active by default when creating a new COM port to a BT device.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] iRiKi:
Nice to hear ppl are using my tip :)

I've updated first post so no worries at all :p

Finally TomTom is running

Hi folks!

Finally i made my TomTom running also!

My magician has the BT-GPS always in its disconnected list, so TomTom didn´t find a GPS. I use GPS2blue to connect to GPS then i start TomTom and once TomTom found the GPS (type is other NMEA receiver) i can stop GPS2blue using the taskmanager to free some mem.

I set GPS com port to COM6 no secure connection. In external GPS manager i use COM0 in the programs tab, COM6 @ 57600 baud in the hardware tab and i checked manage gps automatically in the access tab.

I hope this will help some of you :)

Cheers

Hi TL lovers.

This is my contribution for the best WM UI

It is inspired in a mixture of of BBStorm, TF2D and GSmart.

Update:

Landscape support. (A functional landscape theme)

Full and normal screen options.

All buttons are configurable.

Widgets (Widgets in images are for Hero theme by ryomahino)

plugins are optional

Rumball stock quotes http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=473131:

G-Alarm support

Moon phases (You can adjust them to your geographical location in config)

Weather in home page (optional)

SMS preview in home page (optional)

Scroll in home page to have weather, SMS, watch and lunar phases.

Scroll buttons (the ones above footer strip) in home page to have more options.

Click in home weather main icon to update weather forecast. Or just choose AutoUpdate option in weather TL config.

Add Album covers and click on them to open music player of your choice.

SMS Preview in "home's scrolling main window among clock moon and weather. (Click on message to refresh for viewing new messages. It doesn't refresh automatically)

Customize home page buttons (the ones above footer strip) in ThrottleConfig. They may not work at first so you have to set them in ThrottleConfig for your very own applications names and paths.

Click moon icon when first theme installation for first moon phase or just wait for next day.

Rumball, tank you for your themes contributions. They encouraged me to do something better although not as good as yours. Feel free to use my lunar phases algorithm if you like it:)

MortScript needed!

Enjoy.

Regards,

Jaime.

[Windows Mobile Themes] APBilbo:
Never mind!! It was worth waitting :). It's working great if executed from Main storage. Has some problems though if executed from SD or internal memeory. The problem is it's using #$THROTTLE#\Setups\BBSmart2D instead of #$THEME_BASE# to reference paths ;). After correcting this works great placed anywhere!!

Great work!! Thanks!!

P.S. I attach my moded XMLs ;).

I think it should just remove weather from main page and replace from Plugin tab or another tab?

Can you post a cab file so i can just select it within the throttle launcher morph? If not please explain what the steps are to select this.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Jaime Méndez:
Think that you are changing pages when you scroll your watch to see weather and player. Why would you like to have weather in an other page while it is actually in an other panel that behaves like an other page?

Can you pleaz give settings, steps to how to set up the stocks page
[Windows Mobile Themes] paulpille:
Thx Jaime for this beautiful skin. I like it very much :)

The only thing I'd wish to change is the background in full screen mode. On my Magician (running under Cotulla's WM6.1) the splashscreen of the ROM is shown as background and not the black one shown on your first post.

I was looking through the complete config screens but could not find an appropriate setting for the background.

Am I able to configure this somewhere ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Jaime Méndez:
Copy Elegance.tsk (attached in first post) to Windows directory and select it in "today settings"
[Windows Mobile Themes] paulpille:
Thx.

However I'd prefer a full black background. Is there any chance to get that with little changes in Elegance.tsk ?

A second thing I'd appreciate very much would be: reuse the toggling of WiFi button (my Magician has no WiFi) as a phone on/off switch (using e.g. wireless mgr.).

I searched all the XML's but could not really locate where you invoke the associated function.

Hope you can help :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] paulpille:
... after some Google searching I found the MS Theme Generator which easily created the attached QVGA-Full-Black.tsk, maybe useful for someone.

Jaime, could you help me with the WiFi button ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Jaime Méndez:
Look for this in every page (XLM files)

<icon X="197" Y="29" height="15" path="#$THEME_BASE#\Notifiers\wifi #$SystemState,WiFiStatePowerOn,map,[1-on|default-off]#.png">

<event type="Click"><action execute=":WifiToggle"/></event>

</icon>

and change "path" and "action execute" to any picture and applet you want.
[Windows Mobile Themes] pbballin:
So on your weather section, does Rumballs animated weatherpanel work as a plugin?
[Windows Mobile Themes] paulpille:
Great, it works !

In Home.xml I just changed ":WifiToggle" to ":PhoneToggle" and its running. :) THX.

However, this was a quick shot. Next step is to use the GSM Strength Signal button/icon to toggle Phone on/off. But this will need some time ...
[Windows Mobile Themes] paulpille:
Ok, after some investigations the following changes in Home.xml enable toggling of phone (on/off) by clicking the Signal Strength button on the top right corner:

<icon X="210" Y="6" height="12" path="#$THEME_BASE#\Signal\sig#$SystemState,PhoneSignalStrength,intervals,20#.png">

<event type="Click">

<action execute=":SendKey" parameters=""/>

<action execute=":PhoneToggle"/>

</event>

:)

EDIT: adapted Home.xml with activated PhoneToggle included within attachment of posting #26
