ask

what should I choose for my O2 XDA II?

please answer...

thx b4
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Z80-Man:
Yau can't actually change the keys sizes, as there is a unique picture pattern for all of them, except for the special ones (such as spacebar, backspace, shift... Actually a small number of them. All the other ones share the same bitmap design).

But you can still change their positions and add new ones, as their matrix is defined in text files, so you could without any problem squeeze them and add an additional key on most rows.

I'm personaly thinking about that : as this keyboard doesn't have the fold-out lists like HTC's keyboard, each characters has to be on its own key, combined with one or several shift options (knowing there's another one available, not used on the classical layouts), adding keys may help.

BTW, I agree with you : there's too much wasted space, and if adding keys isn't enough, the the special keys can be enlarged.

Actually, if I remember well, it's possible as special keys' witdths are specified in the configuration text files : FK just stretches their background pictures accordingly. ;)

Read the help files, and read the comments inside the files : there's a lot of things to learn, sort out and experiment, but all you need is written somewhere among what Rozenthal put in them. :)

im using the smartkeyboard when running android.. but i just miss the featurues fingerkeyboard has. but the fingerkeyboard is too small again...

why cant we just make it larger, so that it is like the smartkeyboard on android >.<!!

BTW, i found a skin where the spacebar is on the right side.. is it possible to move it to the middle again?...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] DarkPrinceByWWW:
It's not a big deal to resize or to move the buttons. But you have to spend time to learn how.

I hope to find some time to complete the English layouts for my skin mode project. As far as i made the English layouts, i'll make some more color scheme (actually i only fitting some existing color scheme to my layouts ^^). See my signature for more information ;)

1-what is ROM ?

2-if it put tf3d rom or another it will delete all files in the system ( like hard reset ) ?

3-is tf3d is like a panel ( spb mobile shell ) or will delete windows mobile system?

4-what is GeoTagging in camera ?

thanks
[XPERIA X1 General] indy.89:
From what ive gathered by using roms my self... i have found the following:

1. What is a rom?

it is basically the thing that make the user interface look the way it looks. The default windows today panel is the default rom which the phone comes with. TF3D rom will replace that and make it look like a HTC Touch HD. you can install it as a panel by following this link-

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=441439&highlight=tf3d+panel

Download TouchFlo3D on Xperia X1 cab and TouchFlo3D as Panel Installer Installer.

Install TF3d first, softreset, then go to settings, today, items and untick every thing. then soft reset.

Now install TF3d panel installer. soft reset. then just choose the panelas younormally would.

2. A rom will edit certain windows files to make it look and behave in a different way, but it would still be the windows interface. if you install another rom, it will erase all files on phone. and replace certain windows files.

3. see q 1

4. Dont know what geo tagging is??
[XPERIA X1 General] figofigo:
thanks alot :)

but when i install the tochflo 3d beta 3 and made everything then when i press on the panel it writes to me loading in a white screen and notheing occure ??
[General Questions and Answers] ice8lue:
Hey everybody,

I'm looking for a tool which automatically changes the current phone profile byloccation and time.

For example:

From 8pm to 6am I'm at work, so my phone recognizes the Cell-ID at my Work-location and sets my Profile to Loud/Outside/Whatever.

When I come home, it changes to just Vibration alarm.

When I go to sleep at 11am, it totally turns off all alarms but remains on (no flight-mode) till 7pm and so on.

Is there something like that arround?

I already tried rkSleep, but it just changes between flight-mode and phone on.

Thanks

Alternative to hypercore or another guide alternative to ivan's?

I much appreciate the effort he has put into his guide and it has helped a bit to get an idea of what goes where but the step by step process must be missing numerous steps...

Mainly I'm curious why when buildos is creating an os.nb file it gives me an error that the os.nb file is missing from hypercore\build\rom... I'm trying to create it from sys/oem why does it need it to exist already...?

Following the guides there were several spots where step a didn't lead to step b,

any suggestions to alternatives? Where'd you learn from before these guides were made?

Edit; Also... 64bit compatability? :/

Thanks for any help;

Edit2; Another issue I ran into is the guide advises to copy ifles to Working_Folder but that folder does not exist for me,

It does however in his easycook kitchen... Is that merely the folder structure preferred by ivan or was hypercore supposed to result in me having a working_folder?

For now I just pasted OEM and Sys into workingfolder from easykitchen to change package options but ... Kinda lost >_<

edit3; also it seems that my OEM folders just end up being tons of folders like "btooth.dll" or whatever...When extracting OEMAPPS folders are they supposed to bare any resemblance to the OEM folders found in the justMe easy kitchen? Cause they sure don't ...
[Wing, P4350 General] uorhan:
Alternative??

I am not a pro cook but reading info/instructions seemed pretty simple and plain but application process is really confusing.

I have 32bit XP I followed the instuctions step by step, extraction didn't work for me but solved with first .nbh to .nb extraction tool than the .nb extraction command tool but the command doesn't start the builder. did it by duble clicking or going back to step 1(dump rom) and getting it done. final products are .nbh file created with dutty htc rom tool. flashing always failed:confused: corrupted file!! I use offical T-mobil rom and only removed the useless pictures, ringers, help files(never used), media player, transcriber, entertainment(games), netCF, adobe reader and page pool set to 4,6 and 8 all failed to flash (hardSPL for v 4.26)

Have unsuccesfull results with holly's kitchen default sys and oem folders. I don't get this may be i'm moving something i'm not supposed to

can somebody post "absolutely not to remove" or "OK to remove" list to compare mine??

appreciated any reply

god bless all cooks.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] kenter:
sorry guys, i'm little confusing because when first time i saw Himalaya's note is:"The Andes is the updated version that has a 1.3 megapixel camera, sold (among other names) as the XDA IIi" and for Alpine is:"The Alpine is sold as XDA IIi, Qtek 2020i, PDA2 and many other names."

so honestly i'm confuse.

Cheers!
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] dazza9075:
as far as i am aware the Andes is simply a XDA II same hardware same spec but released in a different market.

To my knowledge its not a different device at all which seems likely with the lack of info on the thing, if it was an upgraded XDAII there would have been a lot more talking going on about it. infact i think ill change the Wiki ive had a good look now and it would seem to be nothing to do with the XDA IIi
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] afr33s:
Not sure if still required, but...

I believe the Alpine XDA IIi has wifi whereas the Andes XDA IIi does not.

I spent ages trying to flash my Alpine with a Himalaya ROM, without success, before I realised it was an Alpine and not an Andes.

My XDA wasn't bricked by all the effort, but I may have just been lucky.

[HTC Vox] barnix:
Hi there,

I'm new here, and to smartphones aswell. I have a s710 which is working properly, except for the fact that some of the keys on the slide-out keyboard dont work as they should. For example, the letter m just doesnt work, but the letter n-key is somehow reassigned to work as a left arrow key.

So when I press the N-button, it acts like the left arrow key. So this seemed to me, obviously, to be a software-related problem. Now I installed that NeO rom on it, and it works perfectly, but it didnt fix the problem. Im not sure if it worked with standart rom (or whatever u call it:D), since I got it with an unoriginal rom already installed on it.

So my question is if it is fixable, without making any hardware adjustments. Im a real newb when it comes to smartphones, so you guys could really help me out here!

Thanks in advance,

Jeroen.

[XPERIA X1 General] Amnesia180:
Hi All,

Some how, my xperia has broken!

For some reason, the slide doesn't go 100% down. It's ever so slightly, out of line.

Now, if fully open it, and turn the phone upside down I hear something "plasticy" inside slide to the top of the phone then it jams and doesn't slide at all... so I have to tilt the phone again to move it.

Anyone else had this problem?

I've it more than 14 days so o2 will not replace it now :( (and I didn't take out the insurance either!)
[XPERIA X1 General] n4v1n:
That plastic thing could be the piece of plastic that comes with the phone out of the box. Its a removable protector for the back of the slider. open the phone and look at the back you should be able to peel it off. That could be your problem.
[XPERIA X1 General] ZenithUK:
If it is a MECHANICAL fault through no fault of your own then you're covered by the 18 month warranty you get with contract phones. Even SE say that the Xperia X1 has a 2 year warranty.

First of all get onto O2 through the CS number (202 from your phone) and explain that your phone has developed a fault with the screen sliding mechanism. They will probably try to fob you off saying that you didn't take out insurance or that breakages aren't covered under warranty. They may even try to fob you off onto SE instead. If you've had the phone less than 6 months (very likely) then you can turn around to them and say this,

"Under the Sale of Goods Regulations (as amended), my contract of sale is with you, O2, and not with the manufacturer of the handset."

You are entitled to a free repair or replacement under the Sale of Goods regulations if the device is less than 6 months old. Don't be bolshy about it, just ask them nicely for a repair of replacement saying that you paid a premium price for a premium phone and would really appreciate a replacement since you can't be without a phone for more than a day or two. The CS operator *should* offer you a refurbished handset with next day on the doorstep swapout.

They did it for me with the infamous cracked case by the volume button. :)

[edit] Oh yeah, if you've put a custom ROM on your phone, flash it back to the stock R1A O2 UK ROM and then flash the stock SPL back on it. They get tetchy about little things like flashed ROMs. :)
[XPERIA X1 General] Amnesia180:
Hi Zenith,

Thank you for your feedback. The problem is, I've already sent a phone back previously (as it arrived damaged).

And, I have actually dropped this phone and there is a slight scratch/mark on the top right hand side of the phone. It would be too easy for them to say that it was my fault (even though the phone worked perfectly after the drop).

I will still call them and find out what they have to say.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Yes, I am aware of that version. In some ways craftyb's app inspired me to create the myPlayer app.

This application is a more light-weight alternative (approx 50kb at the time of writing). I tried the iPlayer app on my Kaiser but it didn't like it very much. The stream quality was a little too high - so the video playback was a bit choppy.

myPlayer uses the low bit rate streams which are served via the BBC iPlayer mobile site. The 3G stream in particular is a very low bit rate. It is also QVGA friendly :)

The intention is to provide an iPlayer service for those using older Windows Mobile devices.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Yep, that is something I will be working on in the near future. I'll probably use the extra space to display more detailed programme information.

I'm also looking in to the behaviour of the app when the screen orientation changes from portrait to landscape.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] custardo01:
I've tried them both and myPlayer is much much faster on Blackstone almost instant in fact. With iPlayer you have to wait for the file to download which takes a long time. Also iPlayer is 914kb whereas myPlayer is 52.6kb.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cbwood:
This is excellent. I have been struggling for 2 days trying to get iPlayer working on my HTC Trinity with FinixNOver 3.4 ROM.

Playback with Coreplayer is very smooth and your application lightweight.

1. Tried the other iPlayer app and it just would not work properly at all on the Trinity.

2. Tried to get the Opera/HTC Streaming Media solution working but could never get any pucture displayed although sound worked okay (although the sound quality was poor). Also getting to the iPlayer click to play page on Opera 9.5 is quite slow and cumbersome.

3. Tried Skyfire which worked but it was slow and the picture playback was not continuous. Also it is not possible to display the picture in full screen landscape mode.

I only seem to be able to select Catch Up View at the moment, are the other options still being developed?

Once again this is an excellent application and a must have for all existing windows mobile users. I look forward to further updates. :)

Pros and Cons

Pros - tiny footprint, looks great

Cons - Won't work on Edge or Wifi. I don't have 3G. There is an erroe but it says I need the NCF 3.5 messages cab to read it on the next restart. I know the rom I use has NCF 3.5 installed by default.

I've included a picture of the error message.

Please assist.

Edit: Nevermind. I just read you must have an UK IP address and I'm in the good ole US of A. Please note the IP issue in the original post. I still give the program a thumbs up and would like to congratulate the developer on making a tiny and efficient program. If there is a service like the BBC link in the US I would love for this program to be compatible.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Yes, those views are currently still in development. I hope to add them to one of the next major builds - but currently I am working on improving the reliability of the 3G service.

Thanks for the feedback.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
Ah yes - well spotted. You will infact have to install the NETCFv35.Messages cab extension to see the error message in detail.

I have added a link to the cab you will need on the first post.

Can you access any of the BBC iPlayer content from a desktop PC in the US? If so - I may investigate the possibility of extending the code for the US region.

I get the same error message. Tried installing the messages.cab but still comes up with the same message. I can see the video's to choose from but it doesnt seem to want to play them and throws the above mentioned error message back at me.

FryWalker, I am LOVING your app!

Thankyou so much, if you accept donations I'll send one!

One question, does myplayer download the video streams locally? e.g. can I make it 'download' a show overnight to watch on the tube the next day?

Star, thanks so much
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FryWalker:
The streams are accessed in real time so the only local buffering occurs in CorePlayer (or which ever streaming player you use to view the episodes).

I have yet to master buffering video files directly from RTSP, but it is something I may look to adopt a solution for in a future version. At present though it is not a high priority - as I have a few other features currently in development.

-Fry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] smeddy:
Thanks for the quick reply, no worries!

Next question :P I love your player - for the major reason that it works! I really like the look of the other iPlayer version, but as craftyb said, he's getting less time to dedicate to the project. Have you two ever talked about him letting you use his frontend, but with your backend cunning?

When I try the other program it gets to 'Loading PID' and then just closes, which is a problem I know other HD users have as well.

But in the meantime, thankyou. I just watched The Apprentice on my phone (even tho I had a TV and a PC next to me! :P)
