Hi guys i'd find many posts about people that have installed ita roms in their Hx2xxx device, for my hx2110 i found only this site

http://www.deieso.it/PDA/index.html#hx2xxx

in this site the are 3 roms (in order to date)

Hx2100-2400WM5it.rar (20,03 MB)

Hx2x9xWM5it.rar (28,84 MB)

Hx2x9xbWM5it.rar (28,96 MB)

but no free links...

there is anyone that give me a link for any italian rom of wm5 for my pda??

i try to google Hx2100-2400WM5it.rar (for example) but nothing.

thanks for aswers and sorry my bad english

finally i found the italian firmware from hp site and the original wm5ita rom...

but i've a problem, my device is english what can i do to skip hpRUU.exe language control?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Midral:
guys please i'm searching but no explanation....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ninnolo:
maybe it works:

get an upgrading tool (better the one you used to load current version)

run hpRUU.exe, let it read current version but don't push "upgrade".

now rename upgrade.nbf to something you like (ex: upgrade.nbf.old)

put in the folder the real upgrade and rename in upgrade.nbf

push upgrade

it should work.

can you give me link to download WM in italian? I didn't find on HP site

sono interessato anch'io a WM2003-2005-2006 in italiano. mi puoi passare i link per scaricarli? sul sito hp non sono riuscito a trovarli.

per il tuo problema penso possa risolverlo così:

prendi un tool di upgrade (meglio se è lo stesso con cui hai caricato la versione corrente).

lanci hpRUU.exe, gli fai leggere la versione attuale ma non cliccare su upgrade.

a questo punto rinomini il file update.nbf in quello che vuoi tu (es: update.nbf.old) e metti nella cartella il file di aggiornamento che vuoi caricare sull'ipaq e lo rinomini in update.nbf.

dovrebbe partire con l'aggio.

ciao

[G1 Android Development] garbonauta:
I don't know what's wrong with my phone. It is new, and well I've been having major issues when trying to root it.

At first I could not downgrade to RC29 (had RC33), I would get bootload update failure. I tried multiple Dreaimg.nbh, and reformatted my sd card to FAT32 multiple times. It finally worked when I gave up on it. It failed to succeed once so in frustration I ran it again, and it worked (with same Dreaimg.nbh that had failed previously)! After at least 20 tries...

Now is my next issue. I cannot make it reboot into recovery mode. This is after I flash the recovery.img (I have done this multiple times with different recovery.img and with different SD cards, I also tried using the install app to get the img directly to my phone).

It just keep reseting itself until I give up, and it then just boots regularly. Anybody know why this could be?

I have tried doing reboot recovery in telnet, and same results.

Please help me out. My phone is working now and well I don't want to risk bricking it again just so I can go get a new one from tmobile.
[G1 Android Development] tubaking182:
i know there are several posts about this, but i think what fixed it for the last guy i helped was to run the telnet step from the phone directly, get the telnet app and terminal emulator and try it that way, if you don't know what i am talking about send me a PM or email to tubaking182(at)gmail and i will walk you through it. also, when you download the recovery.img and put it on your sd card make sure you unmount the phone from the computer properly so that you know that EVERYTHING is actually done trying to read/write to the SD card. i don't remember if there is or not, but if the md5sum is given for the recovery.img then check that after you download it. might be any number of problems, but it shouldn't be that hard of a fix.

might wanna see if you can get to recovery after you flash the .nbh file, just to see if it works there. good luck
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
any way to get this to show up in the start menu rather than opening it up in the java progran?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Yes here ya go attached place the .dll in Windows and the .lnk in Windows\Start Menu soft-reset.

If Opera Mini is the first installed Java app then all will be fine if you get an s0 error let me know and will ammend shortcut.
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
hmmm i got the error but i dont think im doin it right im doin it all on my phone at the moment. i downloaded ur zip extracted and th extraction only had the ink in it? but in zip mobile ink and dll was there...
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
when you add this to your phone, when you click on it, does it show the java opening up and you have to then launch opera mini from within the java like usual? or when you click on the shortcut, does it open java and launches opera mini by itself?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Use Resco File Explorer to open the make sure Menu\Options\Browser all is unticked.

Over the .zip click Action\Archive\Extract To

Now follow directions in first post :)
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
i get the error message then i have to open on my own in java.. great browser just started using an hour ago
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
It opens up Java and runs Opera Mini all by itself :)
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
What error message?

The more info you provide the more i can help.
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
Cool, I've been using opera mini for a while now and I think you gave me the shortcut file before, don't remember :), I have opera mini in my links panel and the only thing I hate is having to click on it , open java and then launch opera manually.

Another question, when you're exit opera mini, does it exit java also?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Yep Java isn't realy open as you will see when running any app, java closes when app launched :)

To all: I have ammended so as there is s0 - s4 in the attachment if Opera Mini was the first install of a Java app then it will be that if not then try the others.
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
it opens opera up by itself now when i clic it the icon also changed to a fancy opera one and im gettin the s0 error in java
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Check last post it's because Opera Mini was not your first Java app installed :)
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
sweeet :D thanks bro!!!
[HTC Excalibur] HTCP4000PPC:
Worked perfect for me, stylez u never fail to impress me thanx alot love the Mini shortcut Thanx again Stylez...
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
That's cool :)

Thanks to Ricky too as this is from RoseRom.
[HTC Excalibur] HTCP4000PPC:
Yes ricky thank you too.. man i cant believe how cool my S621 is now i swear its a different 6.1 Kavana S621 now :p Dunka... my good programmers :)
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
I got the error for the s0, and I was wondering why since opera mini is the one and only thing I have in java, and you said if it was the first that you shouldn't get the error, and then I remember, that I had a previous unsigned version of opera mini, and I had replaced it with a signed version, so I just switched to the s1 shortcut , edited my panel, and now it works perfect. Thanks again Stylez..:D
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Yeah so since you removed and installed another it wasn't the first install :D

Glad you sorted it :)
[HTC Excalibur] SvB4EvA:
Thanks stylez, works great!
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
i got it thanks a million stilez
[HTC Excalibur] klaberte:
Perhaps it is just me, but the Mini Opera Icon I saw after doing this looked pretty bad. Stylez, can you post a small photo of what your icon looks like on your Dash screen?

I found another icon that looks better from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=388800

Is it possible to just extract that icon and then use your shortcut (or is this what the .cab file does)?

Thanks!
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
mine automatically changed to this nice one. looks the same im my start menu to..
[HTC Excalibur] klaberte:
Yes, but on a light colored background, the edges are somewhat ragged.
[HTC Excalibur] 1Airborne1:
now that i look at ti your right.. and i dont know how to change a start menu icon
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
you have to replace the opera mini.ink in your windows/start menu. Here's a few nice ones. The .png icon for opera mini is the one that I use on my panel.
[HTC Excalibur] SvB4EvA:
I use this one:
[HTC Excalibur] SvB4EvA:
Sorry here is the attachment...
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
That looks nice. Here's mine. :)
[HTC Excalibur] SvB4EvA:
Whoops! Wrong one... :D

Here it is:
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
That's a nice one. With that one and the one's that I posted, give people choices on what to use depending on preference. :)
[HTC Excalibur] klaberte:
Sorry, I don't think I followed you. I save the image file you posted, then what do I do?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
My icon looks fine as i use SmartToolKit and also have the Original for Panel........

And since it gives you a quick way to access Opera Mini who cares what it looks like you just click it............

sorry pickiness gets me anoyed with how much i do to help, sorry not going to devote more of my time for jagged edges.

Thankyou :)

Skyfire

Just wondering why no one in this forum supports skyfire. I run Skyfire beta0.9 on my kavanna and it runs amazing with FLASH support ha. i have tried the opera browser and just didnt feel it compared. its very fast but no flash cmon.
[HTC Excalibur] jgrv:
what version of smartoolkit are you using stylez? i use rc09 en it doesn't work fine.. had to uninstall it
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
RC08 is the most compatable with Dash\Excalibur

iDASH:

People do use Skyfire but Opera Mini is faster by miles after all how often do you really need flash support? Also Opera Mini cuts down on data costs...
[HTC Excalibur] klaberte:
Geez stylez! I wasn't criticizing your value to the community (which is awesome), your unique grammar style, or your ninja-like stealth. I was simply saying that the icon looks bad on my computer and I was looking for another solution. Frankly, all of us here are hackers and tweakers. I don't think my comments were out of line.

Some months from now, someone will do a search and find this thread. For that person, I'll point to what I think the easiest and quite acceptable solution:

Download the cab at:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=388800

and run it. The icon can be previewed in the first post, and it sets up the lnk file perfectly. It works great on my Dash.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
I appologize put it down to lots of beer and curry, maybe even having problems with my device :D "yeah i mem new bloody sim with no data on Tilt"

Ricky & i opted out on that logo as i use Opera Mobile & then the 2 looks exactly the same...

Like the unique gramma like style lol :D

Also last bit wasn't direct :)
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
You don't have to apologize Stylez, considering all the shiat you must've put up with in the past. We have supplied enough icons and enough info on how to change or use any number of icons. SHOOT you have supplied enough info for anyone to make their own icons, so you know what, no worries, I prefer honesty over the apologies:)
[HTC Excalibur] klaberte:
Good man, stylez!

Thanks for all you do.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] addicus:
How do everyone? I'm trying to combine two weather programs but have run into a problem. I originally wanted to just add the icons from one to another, but now that I need help I have a more ambitious journey in mind.

---

The programs are: Tonaya WeatherToGo (WTG) which is freeware and the ever famous SPB Keyboard. I'd like to add the icons (skins) from SPB to WTG so the footprint stays small while the look improves immensely.

1. WTG

Pros: free, small footprint, great weather source (noaa.gov), today screen plugin, multiple cities, updating options

Cons: only works for US cities, today screen is only accessible by touching screen, icons are old and stale, product no longer developed so it may not work for VGA and WVGA screens.

2. SPB

Pros: looks great, multiple weather sources, today screen plugin, works internationally, for various screen sizes

Cons: Size, size, size (extra large footprint) and not freeware.

---

So I tried to import the skins from SPB weather into WTG, but I only have the cab file for WTG and couldn't insert them. Honestly, I would be satisfied with this improvement and if someone wants to give me directions I'm willing to take them.

If a developer wants to work on this I'd be happy as pie and would only ask for idea credits and a QVGA version being made automatically.

---

Yes I'm aware there are a lot of programs but these two are my favorite after years of use and I would love them to be combined.
[G1 Android Development] Jamaican:
I new that the .thumbnails folder in the dcim folder on my sd card is where the photo album stored the thumbnails of the pictures on my SD CARD, but what I did not know is that these thumbnails are the save exact size as the original files. so it seems it was just copied to that folder and renamed to a bunch of numbers.

This is a total waste of space I have quite a few LARGE photos on my 8gb SD card.

Q} Why is there a need for thumbnails that are the same size as the originals

Q} How do I reduce the quality of the thumbnails {I know I can't, there is no option to}
[G1 Android Development] phatman81:
This explains a lot. I have tons of pictures on my SD card and now understand why it takes forever and a day to load all the thumbnails. What a joke on the devs part. (i can see this being a temp thing and then it was totally forgotten about later in the dev process. LOL) hope this is addressed in the new updates. Would probably speens things up, thumbnails at least, tenfold.

There is an app called A2DP toggle, it works great for my Jabra hands free.

Also try holding your stylus on the device that is listed in your BT settings menu for your Kaiser, a pop up will appear, select "Set as Wireless Stereo"

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Poke_N_PDA:
I've got a mogul right now and I'm more than likely going to get the Sprint version of this when I'm up for upgrade in December. However, I use the D-Pad a lot and I'm wondering how much I'll miss it on the pro2. I don't get having a windows and back button without a d-pad. What good are they? If you're pushing the screen with your finger you'd just hit it on the screen.

That said though, I'm more than willing to give it up for the huge and gorgeous screen that it has. I just think they could have gotten it in there at the bottom even with all they already have. I hope that it is still pretty one-hand friendly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] d474rpr:
The hard keys on the device are raised up and are:

Call | Home | Back | End

Above the hard keys is a touch sensitive zoom bar thing... like a ribbon controller for zoom in/out. Gives you enough room to not touch the screen by accident. The device is extremely responsive to finger touch so I haven't missed the 5 way nav. It's a close run to the G1 or iPhone as far as touch response goes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Carty:
Trust me, missing D-Pad is a real pain. I felt it when I bought the Touch HD and throw the damn thing just because it didnt have one.

I read SPB Insight a lot and in that case, D-Pad is a must. You'll know how much you love it only when you miss it!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xcom923:
I dunno, touch flo has come a long way so far I barely use my d-pad anymore. But you're right you don't realize how much you'd miss something till it's gone T_T
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] compewter:
I'm in the same boat, going to go from a Mogul to a TP2 when they come out... I find myself using the scroll wheel and d-pad in many instances when it's helpful to hold the phone securely ( driving for example - I know, I know )... I haven't had a touchflo based phone before and was curious what level of voice integration they have added. If they've added a level of voice-based control for doing more than dialing, be it through BT or integrated mics, that'd be pretty cool.

Anyone with this phone played with loading apps through voice input?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sino8r:
humm... I was thinking the same thing. One handed operation will be more difficult at first. Probably get used to it though... how will I play my nes and snes emulators though, lol. But seriously (I was serious about the games) this will take A LOT of time to get used to.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orb3000:
In my personal opinion it will not harm me as I never used a device with D-pad

And my main use of the device is for making calls and surfing the net, I never play on it even with a screen of 5" it´s too small!

For that I prefer to use my desktop computer with a nice 24" monitor
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] eknutson:
My assumption is that the lack of a D-pad will slow me down with the keyboard closed at first but I'll learn to navigate w/out it. For the games, I usually play with the keyboard out on my Tilt so I don't expect to miss it there.

Playing games is different than walking and navigating with 1 hand, so I think it'll be ok - at least for a larger screen I'm willing to try!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Poke_N_PDA:
Yesterday I did the math and thought that the screen wasn't going to be much bigger than before (just longer). Today I did the math again and I'm thankful that I was wrong. However, the widescreen aspect does make the 3.6" moniker somewhat decieving as it has slightly less screen area than the iPhone. However, it's still gonna be nice and big :D.

Touch Pro

Horizontal: 2.8"

Width: 1.68"

Height: 2.24"

Area: 3.76 sq in

Touch Pro2

Horizontal: 3.6"

Width: 1.85"

Height: 3.09"

Area: 5.71 sq in

iPhone

Horizontal 3.5"

Width: 2.8"

Height: 2.1"

Area: 5.88 sq in

Also, this has some advantages in the phone itself as it will be slightly thiner in width than the iphone and be more elongated. Thus, it will look a feel a little less strange holding it to the ear than the iPhone or other HTC phones. Check out this comparison shot from GSMarena.com

Also, when compared with the dimensions of my Titan, there isn't that much difference. It's just a little taller and it's actually thinner. I think this is going to be a perfect form factor. Just wish they could have shoved the D-pad and a few other buttons (Ringer switch?) in there. However, if I load Android on it it probably won't make that much of a difference :D

HTC Titan: 110 x 59 x 18.5

HTC Rhodium: 116 X 59.2 X 17.25

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bobdude5:
seriously :( i miss my android :( i wish it was fully ported to the HD :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mskip:
I dont think the missing dpad will cause that much trouble. I mean most of the new phones from samsung, lg and SE dont have dpads on their touch screen phones and the iphone has never had one. I only ever use my dpad on my kaiser for navigating the start menu (i use quickmenu so its great for that) and for playing games but I guess I would get used to it.

Who knows I might try it out and hate it but it certainly looks fantastic and apart from the crappy camera I think its definitely worth upgrading to :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jacex0:
If you look closley the keyboard has up down left and right arrows.

dont get me wrong. it will be something extremely hard to get used to and not fully dependable when having the phone closed but atleast there are those buttons there to help along.:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] bravo261:
i upgraded from a touch pro to the touch HD and went back after just a week due to the lack of a d-pad. in windows, its just hard to get by without some sometimes. with the touch hd, there was something about the call history that was impossible to navigate, and windows just has small icons based on the stylus days, so even the most sensitive screen will require a precise fingernail instead of a giant thumb.

the touch pro's d-pad sucks hardcore as it is, and when i pick up my girlfriend's kaiser, those softkeys, d-pad, and scrollwheel make me wish for old-school buttons big time!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Poke_N_PDA:
Another question. What happened to the windows and OK buttons on the keyboard? It's not like there was a shortage of space/buttons. Also, though I can understand not having softkey buttons on the front, softkey buttons on the keyboard would be very relivant and WILL be missed.

Basically, when the keyboard is out I want to be able to do everything without having to reach up and hit a button on the screen. Otherwise, it's pretty inconvenient.

Edit: I just experimented with my Titan a bit and it seems the softkeys probably won't be a big deal as it's easy to reach up and press. However, I still think there should be a windows and OK buttons. I'll probably look for a keyboard remaping solution.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] oelapoel:
I have had my blueangel for like forever, and i am one of very few people who never use the keyboard nor dpad... seriously.... for typing, i still like stylus, and i use word recognizer.. i can write really2 fast using this... the drawback is my screen protector needs to be changed often, like once every 3 months....

like most of you guys, i think its about time for me to get anew phone, and topaz or rhodium would be good selection... but then again, maybe touch HD would be enuf for me because basically, they are the same phone and specs (expect for the sliding keyboard on TP2).. and Touch HD would be available cheaper cause its not new anymore... this is still not a final decision, and I am until now still deciding, ahhahaha...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] finisterre:
I'm very concerned about the missing D-Pad and scroll wheel.

I'm still using a Hermes, since other than the Kaiser nothing's had a scroll wheel since.

Sort it out HTC. Give us D-pad and scroll wheel at minimum.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ajbopp:
I use the DPAD occasionally in Resco Explorer and always in ComicReader, but it's not a must for either program. Otherwise I forget it's there. The DPAD just takes up space that is better suited to more screen real estate. I'm glad to see it go.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Poke_N_PDA:
The difference between you and us is that you can ignore it if it's there. We on there other hand just have to stay in want.
