The SnapVue reset batch file basically uses the "ecshift.exe" program found at this post, so nothing special, just put it in the package for easy installation and access. I'd recommend you image your system so you don't have to re-install again from scratch.

To image the shift I used 1) BartPE WinXP bootable CD or WinPE/XP Live CD 2) External CD-ROM, 3) External USB HD & 4) Ghost32.exe (Ghost 11) program. A lot of external stuff, but it works beautifully.
[Shift General] maestro2mil:
Thanks for the credit, it goes to more than just myself.. many contributors. As far as downgrading from Vista to XP, no, pretty sure it doesn't affect your Phone/CDMA functionality. The ROM upgrade could though.

Hi Maestro2mil,

The above provided link leads to downloading Omnipass and Toshiba stack and not Tablet PC Patch for Windows XP Pro w/SP2 as I expected.

Could you please point me towards a working link for downloading Tablet PC Patch for Windows XP Pro w/SP2? I desperately need that patch.

Thanks

I really wonder why HTC decided not to go further with the device? Sure it was underpowered but the concept of it had so much potential in it and with the new CPU's (Intel Atom, VIA Nano, Nvidia Tegra) There should be some sort of squeal to this wonderful device.

All it needed to do was to make Phone calls and it would of been the best all in one device in its' time.

What would of been cool was to have an MID version of it like the Gigabyte M528... take that form factor... put that SnapVue on... have it make phone calls and at least this way we can thumb type with ease!

Am I the only one alone on this??
[Shift General] vertigo1:
Watch nVidia.

On their site, advertising the Tegra platform, they have what looks exactly like an HTC Shift as one of the units pictured. Don't know if it means anything but here's hoping. I love mine.
[Shift General] orb3000:
As far as I know Shift has been discontinued, however no official anouncment on this (Hope I´m wrong) It´s a great device!
[Shift General] nicolas.maigne:
more a reality than a dream ;)

NICE FIND!!

after some investigation , it seems that nvidia hav bought the shift technology .. if its true it will become the "ion umpc" from nvidia.

on their tegra platform , i tkink their are using the clio platform, and they use the snapvue side with full display .

on the overview presentation they shoxw the "ion" notebook with htc album in full screen.

wait and see ...

[Shift General] Pantaloonie:
This is very interesting. I'll be keeping an eye on developments here...
[Shift General] jinvox:
Yes, I did see that photo too but after looking into the Tegra chip set, it sounds like it will only go as far as using Windows CE (which yes that's what Windows Mobile is based on) so if they go this route using the Tegra, I wonder which chip they'll go with for the XP, Vista, or 7 OS (hoping for at least the Intel's new CLUV line of Chips or give us a powerful VIA Nano chip) Last I heard Nvidia did invest in VIA so we'll see if they decide to go any further.

One Major thing beside performance they need to fix is to make the keyboard either thumb typing friendlier or Touch Typing friendly (no more pecking)
[Shift General] jinvox:
And yes I would like to see more news about it if you find any... if this device had really caught on, I could of seen it as Gadget of the Year across the board.

COME ON HTC! Don't GIVE UP on this Great Concept!

Wants to upgrade shift...but to what?

I ave enjoyed my shift, especially since the limited liberation, been hoping for a shift 2 which does not seem to be on the horizon (what shame).

Does anyone know of something with such small factor, 2 operatings systems like shift?

image on NVIDA and releasing mid year

Image on Nvida site , looks exactly like HTC ... and some new devices and also the note that it is releasing mid year
[Shift General] PlayStation:
I checked the specs for the processors 600 - 800 MHz. The Shift currently has the Intel 800 MHz CPU. I wonder how a newer device can use similar or lower spec CPU unless the device will be supporting WinMo only. Its my guess that the device would not be supporting 2 OSs like the current shift.

By the way would NVidia not be selling the processor only or are they developing the gadget as a whole. If they are selling processor only its upon the manufacturers to develop their own form factor. I think NVidia here is trying to get suitors including HTC to develop a gadget with the Shift external features running Nvidias processor. That sounds more like HTC Advantage 3 and not Shift 2! :confused:
[Shift General] foxmeister:
You should note that NVidia don't make hardware - they make chips and chipsets that other people integrate into their own platforms. What you are seeing here are probably no more than concept designs of what Tegra powered MIDs could look like, and they just ripped off an image of the Shift, or possibly that HTC have prototyped a Tegra based MID using a Shift chassis.

Well if it's true then it's a giant step, the step that I have been waiting for.

Finally WM can get out of Win 3.11 error modus thats it's currently running in because of the limited resources currently available.

I think that nvidia ion on the picture will not be an arm procesor, when you search for nvidia ion, it find some pages of pico itx boards with atom+gf9400. it wiil be big dissapointment to do this, but i wait hole ethernity for htc shift or htc uni design with power arm procesor and great batttery.

help needed comparing an Apple to an Orange

I have been looking at getting the Shift to better enhance my mobility. I currently have HTC X7500 and love it, but looking to gain the use of Full windows too so I no longer need to carry my laptop and Advantage.

I'm looking for some loyal Shift users advise to get their opinions.

My question is that since the Shift (or Shift 2) development seems to be deteriorating, would a different mobile solution be suggested?

I am also thinking of the HP TX2Z as it has had some good reviews.

Now I know the Shift and HP TX2Z are apples and oranges, but if you could do it over again, which would you choose?

Shift: you get WinMo, GPS and GSM features which are great

HP: you get windows and that's it

I would certainly like to use my mobile device more in WinMo mode (for internet, email, GPS, skyping, and Remote Desktop connection, but if the technology is already 3 years old and look like it won't be developing further, is it worth picking up the device still?

Apples are great tasting, Oranges provide better Vitamin C....hmmm, what to do?

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] vovan75:
first off - i tried searching but could not find any solid info, from start to finish, how to make tethering work :(

i've never had to tether till now.. tried enabling Internet Sharing and connecting it both via USB and Bluetooth - no success.. i'm using Media Net $15 a month data plan, if that makes a difference (wap Vs gprs in user name but i did try both)...

is anyone using their phone as a modem? what settings do you have? please point the noob in the direction of a step-by-step guide if one is available (i did try to search but nothing than enabling Network connection via registry edit - not relevant)..

thanks a bunch to anyone who could help!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AUTiger83:
I'm online using the "internet sharing" connection now (in Florida cleaning up after a flood) (Yes, I need to get back to work . . . .).

I also have a Fuze and am using EnergyROM 2.0. Haven't changed any settings since installing the new ROM. Works like a charm for me.

Make sure the proxy box under the MediaNet settings is NOT checked.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Dane Austin:
Open up taskmanager and make sure that activesync is not running on the phone. this will not allow internet sharing to work. what does the phone say when you open internet sharing and click connect?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nhshah7:
download a registry editor (i use total commander, and it works just fine).

open it up, go to \plugins\registry\HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\Settings\ForceCellConnection and simply delete the contents of the value so that it's empty. Go ahead and do a soft reset and open up the internet sharing app. From there, select the Media Net connection and hit connect. Voila, good to go!

Enjoy!

ps I've gotten 2+ Mbps speeds via tethering :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] vovan75:
I keep activesync enabled so that i'm able to receive corporate email when on the road.

I was able to tether via USB (was doing nothing different from last night when i was unable to internet share via USB, however I noticed when shutting down that BT stack crashed); internet sharing app came up automatically once I selected internet sharing right after hooking up the cable to my laptop, and MediaNet was there by default (I guess it's all cooked into the ROM; did not have to delete any registry keys; kudos to NRGZ)... was able to get close to 1Mb/s download speed (upload is really slow however, less than 50Kb/s) - not too bad overall :)

Still have problem connecting via Bluetooth :(

maybe i'm having problem pairing laptop and Fuze? is there a pre-defined code/pass key that i'm supposed to use for the Fuze?

i was just using my security/lock code.. when laptop starts dialing (is dial up number *99# correct?), i get the following error box:

------------------------------------------------

Error Connecting to BluetoothConnection

Dialing *99#...

Error 678: The remote computer did not respond. For further assistance, click More Info or search Help and Support Center for this error number.

-------------------------------------------------

Anybody had this issue? or can share their connection settings for Bluetooth?

thanks everyone who responded! :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] vovan75:
now, i just tried leaving User Name and Password fields blank on the Bluetooth connection wizard, and using dial-up number *99***1#, like they suggest here: Answer Center - Create a Windows XP Dial-Up Networking Connection for a Bluetooth Device , and got a new error:

------------------------------------------------

Error Connecting to BluetoothConnection

Dialing *99***1#...

Error 777: The connection attempt failed because the modem (or other connecting device) on the remote computer is out of order.

this is just getting funnier :rolleyes: but kind of frustrating...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] smittyofdhs:
tis fixed my tethering issue... thank you!

Damn AT&T trying to force people to pay more for tethering... shame!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] vovan75:
smitty, do you tether via bluetooth or usb? i have no problem with usb now but still get the same "error 678: the remote computer did not respond..." i wonder if my BT driver is corrupt or i'm blacklisted by at&t :confused:

if anyone is able to connect using bluetooth and Internet Sharing app on Energy or any other similar ROM, can you share your dial-up settings with me?

after i start Internet Sharing app, with PC Connection = Bluetooth PAN and Network Connection = MEdia Net, and then right click my Bluetooth Modem in Dial-up Network Places on my laptop, the icon shows "connecting" for about 5 seconds (and the data icon H on the phone starts rotating) and then the error comes up on computer screen.. i can't believe no one else has had the same issue, i must be something with my laptop :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] smittyofdhs:
I haven't been able to get my HP laptop to pair via bluetooth with my Fuze yet so I was doing USB. With regards to your issue, do you ahve one or two pull down menus in INternet Sharing app? If you have 1, then your registry needs to be hacked. AT&T used a registry key to force Internet Sharing app to only use the isp.cingluar access point (instead of wap.cingluar). If you pay the extra bucks for the full unlimited with tehtering then your account is setup to use isp.cingluar as well as wap.cingluar. If you just have the normal unlimited w/o tehtering option (which is not unlimited it caps at 5GB/month) then you only can use wap.cingluar. THis is how AT&T is going more easily find people using the cheaper plan with thethering and of course charge them up the butt for violation of the TOS (that they keep changing). Removing the registry key, fixes the issue.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] vovan75:
sounds like we are in the same boat here - i can tether my HP laptop with Fuze via USB no problem now using Internet Sharing app, but no luck with Bluetooth whatsoever... i don't think there is an issue with the registry ever since i switched to Energy 2.0 ROM which must have the settings customized (so yes, I do have 2 pull down menus, and I have Media Net selected in the second one). So, I tried to use both wap.cingular and isp.cingular APN's (both wap@cingulargprs.com and isp@cingulargprs.com for User Name, CINGULAR1 for password; then I tried leaving User Name and Password fields blank...) with no success... nothing works, damn it!!!

looks like it gets paired up briefly, then starts dialing and gets the error in a couple of seconds.. the problem must be with the bluetooth dial-up settings for AT&T, because: 1) i have no problem tethering via USB; 2) Fuze is being paired up with my laptop and trying to use HSPDA data connection (as indicated by rotating H on the phone for a few seconds while my laptop tries to dial up).

by the way, have you tried dialing *99# or *99***1# (i tried both numbers as well as *99***3# for Samsung phones) from your Fuze, did you get any modem dial tone??

thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] okedoke:
I was able to connect to internet through bluetooth by using the following settings.

After pairing the bluetooth on both Fuze and laptop:

On my Fuze: open 'Internet Sharing' then select Bluetooth PAN and choose the appropriate network connection (in my case TZones) then tap 'Connect'

On the laptop: open bluetooth neighborhood then 'discover service' or 'explore' on the Fuze device. You should see 'Network Access Point on [Fuze]' and then double click on it.

Done.

ICS on AT&T HTC Fuze Cut Off (NRG Rom Series 2.0)

I've been using ICS with no problems with a ThinkPad T43 for a few weeks at work to circumvent the proxies and reach out to my home machine via RDP. The RDP app for the Fuze just doesn't cut it with its whopping 640x480 screen. Turns out that AT&T in NY/NJ is somehow monitoring the connections. I was watching a bunch of videos to pass some downtime, and I guess I triggered some kind of alert on their end. ICS will connect to MediaNET with no problems (settings read wap.cingular), ICS status shows connected (I am connecting over USB) and my ThinkPad network connection shows a private IP address handed to it by the phone (192.168.0.x range). However when I am trying to connect to something, I'll get timeout errors. Running a simple ping comes back with no DNS capabilities as I can't even ping google.com... Has this happened to anyone on the forum? Can anyone offer some advice? I am thinking of just calling AT&T and playing dumb, saying that I was watching videos, as well as moving lots of music from my home computer via FTP :D... Any advice appreciated. I pay for the $40/month PDA plan... I don't see the point of paying for tethering when you're already paying for data. Yes, before people start flaming me, I was stupid by using the connection to watch a bunch of videos, but you're able to watch youtube on your phone anyway....

--UPDATED 7-31-09 3:03PM --

So I downloaded ICS Control v0.21, which by the way is an awesome program. I went through the config, was able to connect my laptop to my HTC Fuze via WiFi. That was easy. As palringo (win xp version) was connecting in the background, I was able to do a test google search and get back results. Ran a continuous ping on google (ping google.com -t). Turns out that after about 25 ping replies or so, just about the time it took me to do a few web searches, the requests start timing out. Directing the ping at another website shows that the ping request couldn't find the host... basically the same problem I had tethering over USB. It's as if the AT&T network is determining that the request is coming from a PC and not the PDA and not passing the DNS requests... Either way, I tried to ping google via 74.125.45.100 and got back a request timed out. I am now wondering whether or not this may have to do with the packet MTU and whether or not the PDA packets differ from regular PC/WinXP packets. I just don't know enough about networking to be able to know. I am able to ping the Fuze gateway (for all-intensive purposes set to 192.168.2.1) and get back replies within 2-4ms. I really would love to hear from someone to whom this has happened before. I haven't called AT&T yet as the data connection on the phone itself works just fine, and I am able to load pages on the phone just fine. It's just any form of ICS that's beat...

Come on XDA-Dev, I know the collective intelligence can come up with something here.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] rasterX:
I didn't think ATT could detect the difference between tethered requests and ones that originate on the phone, that would be bad though, if that were the case. Since the previous poster was watching videos, it seems to me the bandwidth would be the comparable to watching videos with the YouTube app on the Fuze, which I'm sure is within the terms of service contract.

My experience is closer to vovan75's. ICS works fine via USB, but does not work via Bluetooth. The strange thing is with the BT connection, I can ping the gateway, and even do nslookup with the default DNS, and sometimes if I get lucky, the connection works for a few seconds, allowing a page to load, totally random.

I thought everything worked using the original ATT rom, so I have a feeling culprit is something in the NRG rom, or maybe a radio incompatibility. I might re-flash to the old official rom just to try this, before the next time I update to the latest NRG build.

My setup:

Fuze with EnergyROM (July 22 build)

Radio: 1.14.25.35 (from official HTC 6.1 update)

Notebook with Windows 7 RTM

Windows calls this "Bluetooth Network Connection" (I don't see a reference to DUN, at least not in Win7)

ICS using BT (not working):

IPv4: 169.254.46.56

Gateway: 169.254.247.172

ICS using USB (working):

IPv4: 192.168.0.102

Gateway: 192.168.0.1

Windows 7 calls this "Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device"

DSLReport speed test (Flash) - down: 696Kbs, up: 336Kbs (varies quite a bit, much better at night of course)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] rasterX:
Okay, figured it out. The DHCP setting for the bluetooth PAN should be off (I know, counter-intuitive). I found this by diff'ing the entire HKLM-Comm registry branch of the last EnergyROM build (Sept 6) vs the official ATT 6.1 rom (5.11.502.2WWE), which did work after all.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\BTPAN1\Parms\TcpIp]
"EnableDHCP"=dword:00000000

BTW, you don't need to setup Dial-Up Networking when using the Internet Sharing application (IntShrUI.exe). DUN needs to be configured on the PC when using the phone's modem bluetooth service, and AFAIK, needs to be provisioned by AT&T before it will work. The Internet Sharing app acts like an uplink for paired devices in the bluetooth personal area network (PAN).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kingmatt:
rasterX, you rock! That little illogical registry fix is all I needed... I'd been banging my head against this Bluetooth DUN thing for days.

I'm using activeSync, and everything work perfekt...

as long as I've WLAN on, it uses it... but when I loose the WLAN connection (eg, I go away from home), activeSync uses my GPRS connection to sync my mail.

here lays the problem... after it have synced... it doesn't close down the GPRS connection... its allways stays "connected"... how come? or am I missing some options?

is there any way to shut down the connection manully? I would prefer to the connection do close automaticly after it has synced...:
[XPERIA X1 General] alias_neo:
Strange

There is no reason GPRS should stay connected after it finishes, it might take a little while to disconnect but it should disconnect all the same.

There are some registry tweaks to make sure but you will have to get a program like Advanced Configurtion to help.

Hopefully someone that uses cell data connections can be more help.
