not completely solved the problem but has made it better. cheers
[General Questions and Answers] Subsx:
hey guys,

wonder if this possible, i love the the new SPB3 but is there anyway to take out the start and bar at the top of the page, the standard WM6, cause looks really nice then you have the standard ugly bar at the top

If it is possible can you explain in detail, cause not a great 'Hacker' as such

thanks in advanced

The answer that I got from SPB regarding the very same question:
[General Questions and Answers] Subsx:
Even if there is away to disable the start button and take it out, leave the bar with the sound, and signal etc just want to take the start button and wording away??

i just want someway of getting rid of it, as it really spoils it :(
[General Questions and Answers] DhaMajoR:
There might be a Custom Firmware, but i dont think you want to go Through all of that.

But other than that... You can download a Registry editor and:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell]

"DisableCtrlEsc"=dword:00000001

Strange

I installed PointUI Home2 on my xperia and it has a option to remove the top bar!! it really makes it look alot better... SPB should just make the same option available... shouldnt be to hard...
[General Questions and Answers] P A U L:
if the start bar is removed... wouldn't there just be a visibly blank area in its place?

isn't MS3 built to fit a specific dimension?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tucka20:
Hi, I have a touch pro unlocked and I am thinking of going to the three network from tmobile. Is this a good idea, as in will the phone work with mms and internet on three? They do not do this phone, and so do not provide settings, but will the settings be there on the phone originally or not?

PS I did try to search, but the word 'three' is too common and was not included, as was '3'

Regards and thanks,

Jordan

I'm with 3 in the UK. Running connection setup gets the correct settings automatically no problem.

From what I can see you can't beat the £5 per month for 2gb of data on a PAYG plan.

I get decent connection in most places I go, although I think some other providers may have better network coverage overall.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tucka20:
Excellent, thank you, that's what I wanted to hear :). Do you have any problems using apps that use the internet? EG. iplayer, google maps, weather, things like this? Or are they all ok? Because certain networks like vodafone charge extra! Also, is the built-in windows live used for the msn addon?

Thanks,

Jordan
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Rabangus:
iPlayer won't work because it doesn't recognise the connection as being in the UK. Hopefully they'll sor that out soon.

Others such as Google maps, Messenger, Skype etc work fine.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bogdan.eremen:
I have a problema with my Mio a501.

I try to reset him, but after reset at the factory settings, the WM didn't start.

He blocks at "Mio Digi Walker" logo, no actions after that :(

My version ROM is R57.3.108

What can I do?

Please help me.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ajy101:
Sorry if this has been discussed before, but i checked some performance related threads and nobody mentioned it.

After hanging up a call, why does the entire device hang for about 10-13 seconds before I can use any other function (including making another call) ??

Anything that can be done to fix this?

Thanks for the help!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ajy101:
hello? I'd really appreciate someone to reply to this, just so at least I know I'm not the only one with this problem. Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mputtr:
did you do any radio changing?

It seems to be an issue with some radios on some phones. I have a list of radios that I use that will crash the phone after so many calls.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ajy101:
No, no radio changing. In fact I don't even know what that means.

The phone doesn't crash, it just hangs after a phone call for about 13 seconds like it's trying to process something. Doesn't anyone else experience this?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mputtr:
have you downloaded a bunch of app to run in the background of your phone?

it does sound redundant, but if you take a look at your task manager it'll show you how much of your ram is being used up. if it's somewhere high like 75% then you need to close whatever program is taking up the most memory.

another possible thing might be active sync. I heard that when active sync tries to sync while not connected it can cause slow downs and that might happen during or when you hang up a call.

good luck
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ajy101:
Just tested it. Active directory was not on, and neither was there any background processes working according to Task Manager, and it still took 10 secs after I hung up the call before I could reuse the phone.

How long is it supposed to take for the rest of you?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mputtr:
a second or less. Active sync is the usual culprit for bad battery life, but it looks like something is running in teh background and making your phone calls take longer to quit.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] BlackAccord:
download and install advanced config, and look in one of the settings which is called "hangup delay" or something like that default is 1500 mS (1.5 seconds) change it to 500 mS or what ever you want and see if that makes a difference
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ajy101:
I've done that now, and all I've done is improve the "hang time" by the number I've reduced the "hangup delay" by. The hang-up delay was originally 3000, and I reduced it to 1000, so my "hang time" is reduced by 2 seconds, but I still have to wait around 9-10 seconds before the phone is usable again.

How come no-one else is experiencing this? There's nothing special running on my phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] monkeychucker:
I have the Telus device and have the ' hang' problem as well. I have seen updates on the HTC website for different carrier versions that may correct this problem. None for Telus yet though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nhshah7:
do you have any sort of battery meter running at the top of your screen? ie tnt battery meter?

that app KILLS KILLS KILLS performance on the TP for some reason...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ajy101:
Yes I have a battery meter at the top of the screen, but it's the stock one. I don't know what a "TNT" battery meter is. Should I disable it, and if so how? And after I do, how would I know how much power I have left? And are you saying that those of you who did not turn of the battery meter had performance problems when hanging up?

Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ajy101:
Thank-you! I am also with Telus! If anyone has any suggestions - please help! This is the number one problem with the phone, as well as dropped calls on occasion. I like all the non-phone (ie. PDA) functions though (except that all my outdoor photos turn blue)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] monkeychucker:
Found this which seems to help:

Dealt with HTC for the same issue you're talking about. Turn the "Auto save contact" off and make sure you wipe you call history and the issue will go away.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] nhshah7:
im talking about a meter that runs across the very top of your screen so that if it's halfway across your screen you ahve 50% battery left. if you don't have any idea what i'm takling about then ignore this lol
[Touch HD General] ferraridave:
I don't know if this has been solved already, but I found an easy trick to allow you to watch the iPlayer channels on a 3G connection - no wifi needed.

1. Start a wifi connection, goto iPlayer & open the channel of your choice, wait for it to start playing.

2. Once it's playing browse to \Windows\Opera9\tmpdownload with total commander, or your file browser of choice, and copy the enclosed .sdp file to somewhere on your storage card.

3. Before closing the streaming app, browse to the .sdp file on the storage card and, a) rename it, but keep the .sdp extension, then b) change it's properties to read only and system file.

4. Repeat steps 2 & 3 for each channel you want to watch.

Now close Opera and the streaming app, and switch off your wifi connection.

Browse to your .sdp files on your storage card and open one, it will open with the streaming app and play over your 3G connection, no wifi needed.

If you want to you can also create shortcuts to any of the .sdp files, and place them in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs, then you can add them to a slot on the manila programs tab to launch them with one click.
[Touch HD General] kpn2k8:
Thanks this works great :) making shortcuts for program menu is goood, just gotta be careful about bandwidth usage!

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Gydeon:
Hi all,

i've been trying to unlock my Niki for the entire evening now, but it still won't work.

I got a HTC Niki 100 with my Vodafone subscription, and wanted to play some video's on it. This absolutely failed with horrible framerates ( like it did all the time ), so i wanted to upgrade the rom ( so i could also play games like a GBA emulator ). Every time i wanted to upgrade the rom, i got a 262 Upgrade Error, which meant ( according to another topic here ) that my device was locked. Then i tried a HardSPL unlocker, but nothing works.

So here's my question.. Can you guys help me out to get custom roms on my Niki? I've been trying for to long now, and I think that I could be on within notime with your help :)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] vcdwelt:
Try to read the sticky Threads, all you need is there. Nearly all people have done the unlock with this threads.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Gydeon:
well, the biggest problem is that I get all kinds of error messages with that software, mostly because of Vista 64-bit OS... some apps don't seem to work with x64 and therefore i'm having a hard time finding software that works with 64-bit normally...
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
All of these hacks run in WinXP. Try setting the compatibility mode to WinXP and try. Might need to look at a WinXP PC?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Gydeon:
I managed to get my hands on a Vista 32-bit system yesterday, and indeed, it all workes now.

Thanks for everything, this topic can now be closed.

Clear Storage

Hi pious,

With that kind of problem, it's a software related one, to fix that problem and any other problem with your phone you should reset your phone to its factory settings.

GoTo: Start > Setting > System > Clear Storage

This will reset al settings to manufacturer default. But before doing these, make sure to backup all of your important files, contacts notes, etc.

To God be the glory!

Hey experts i request u all that can u pls extract htc diamond 2 camera app cause it does have full vga resolution with 30fps recording.

so some one pls extract or give any third party app or patch for camera recording at minimum 25fps pls, i am so fed up of camera cause when ever i have to record or capture photos of my brother's son the camera goes spooky and gives only 9 or 10fps recording and all gets :mad:

And sorry i even made a thread before for recording app but i think this will be clearer than that thread and also thanks to mods for replying in that thread and gave this little solution to improve camera recording and capturing by upgrading app from diamond 2 to diamond ;)

pls pm me or reply in this thread if some got any better idea for improving, recording and capturing and i really want to capture golden moments of my brothers son :) so pls help guys and reply so that someone can get better idea or start working on it.

Hi,

Just got my Topaz today.

I only manage to get it to landscape mode when turning left, is there a way of getting to go landscape when turning to the right. I prefer it that way for querty usage, being right handed I prefer to have extra reach with mi right hand.

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] HTC Touch Freak:
I thought that it can rotat each way except for upside down. If not that will suck but sure there is a hack for it. Try turning it to the right and tilting the screen down a little bit?

If it works let me know. And by right I assume you mean that you like the bottom of the phone to be on the right side. Because I hate diveces that rotate to the left.... I've seen a few where you need to turn it left to slide out the qwerty. Seems Bass Ackwards to me.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] leecotton:
Is it possible to rotate both ways?

Anyone found a fix for this? I'm using the new WM6.5 rom, and after enabling auto-rotate, I can only get it to rotate one way. I'd like it to rotate the other way as well as that would suit the position of my car mount and car charger better. Any ideas anyone?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] abzza:
not sure if it works but you can try to change with advance config 3.3 landscape mode from 270° to 180° for right rotation but its fixed
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] syntrix:
Don't you mean "to" 90 degrees?

180 would be upside down?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] abzza:
yes 90 degrees
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Gian #15:
You can use ChangeScreen to rotate all the programs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] leecotton:
Changescreen does the trick

Thanks chaps for all the advice. Advanced config does seem to have settings to rotate in all directions, but the Touchflo interface would still only rotate in the one direction.

However, changescreen seems to override that, and allows you to rotate it in all directions (as long as you take the restrictions of the Manilla settings).

Thanks everyone!

The Haykuro G supposedly has telnet, just the H doesn't.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] konch:
yesterday my tytn2 started to act crazy, i didn't drop it or installed any new software.

the screen started to turn on on his own, front buttons stopped working accept the center button witch now opens the start menu.

when i open the keyboard the fn light is on and the keyboard doesn't work.

when i write the sms message trough touchscreen the backspace isn't working so i can't delete misspelled words.

the photo button and power button on left side still working fine.

all the applications work fine, and i can make calls trough touch screen.

i can't make hard reset because front buttons wont respond.

is anybody had similar problems or have the solution.

my guarantee is gone so i hope this is software problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pjcforpres:
Try doing a battery pull and letting your phone sit like that for a minute, put the battery back in, and see what happens...

It sounds like you have water damage to your phone, though. Every take it in the bathroom with you while you shower? The steam in the air is a sure fire way to get water damage, and it will take time to show, but eventually circuits rust and stop working and you end up with a lot of random problems, and usually all of a sudden you have a lot of major problems.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] konch:
well, i can't remmeber that i had carry it in the bathroom while showering.

i pulled out the battery, waited for about 5 mins and when i put it back nothing has changed. thanks for the tip.

is there a way to do a hard reset without pushing the front buttons?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ASCIIker:
look in the wiki for a detail of all the ways you can perform a hard reset (i believe there are at least THREE ways)

METHOD 1: the one you are looking for (because your buttons don't work) can be triggered by going to Settings->System->Clear Storage (assuming your phone still boots up and the touchscreen is usable)

METHOD 2: when the phone is POWERED OFF:

1. stick the stylus in the soft reset hole and hold it there

2. hold down the two soft keys

3. press the power button

if you try METHOD 2 and if it works, then you can safely assume that your soft keys are working and that it is indeed a software issue.
