Can anyone upload this ROM's?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Noonski:
It's best to Get in there early as a Moderation Team.

There is a Wiki, and Official Rom Release should be posted to the ultimate referral guide in any case to the wiki.

Sorry if it looks like threads are killed quickly in this case, we can't go around giving the impression that posting Official Roms to a thread is th right way to go.

Unless you off course are posting the very firts Official Rom that is ;)

Where does G1 Store the .apk downloaded via marketplace? Ive been using linda file manager to go through all the files but i cant find where it puts them.
[G1 General] lchanmanl:
/data/app & /data/app-private
[G1 General] zeezee:
when i navigate to that location, nothing shows...just blank. How do i see the contents?
[G1 General] jaboswell:
when i got to /data its blank...no other folders....
[G1 General] jashsu:
File Managers don't run with permissions to view /data, so it will show as blank. To view in Terminal Emulator, use su to get superuser access, then you can view the contents of /data with ls.
[G1 General] jaboswell:
i thought that was what Astro was for to backup your apps to sdcard so you can copy them to your computer...if im wrong please correct me...i mean when i try it it force closes.
[G1 General] UnkzDomain:
Has anyone found out yet how to run a file manager with root priveleges? If not, I may look at the source of OI File Manager and check out if it just uses the basic commands like ls and cp and try adding a su right before the very first ls command.

I dont think 'officially' that the facebook app is out yet. the ones you may have previously used wil be pre-release versions
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wardy:
Oh the App works fine .

It was the intergrated facebook picture and status update in TF3D I was refering too.

Its not been implemented but was on the pre release version ... I'm a bit miffed why not as it was cool .
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deechte:
I think the question why certain software is or is not on the device is always a personal one. Maybe not enough people are using facebook to make it generally available on all devices. I, for instance, wouldn't be using it, though it would consume space on my device. Bottom line: maybe they just chose to not include it.

Can't you install it from a cab?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wardy:
Sorry I will make myself clearer

I have the Facebook Cab and it installs and works fine on the TD2

In Touch Flo 3D you have a contacts application . On the pre production version and the ROMS made from it there was an option to hook your contacts up to facebook so you could download your friends picture and status and this was then added to your contacts in the Touch Flo 3D application.

Its not been implemented . I just hope it is as it was a great feature and work brilliantly
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trinode:
I'd love to see that feature too.

Well, that was random. We like windows phones. I develop in .NET.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wardy:
lol thanks

If you look on the Touch HD ROM dev the touch 3d its on there as they are using the Pre release Topaz and Rodium ROM to customise the Touch HD . I sold the Touch HD to buy the TD2 as the Touch HD is way too big.

As for the Palm Pre , i would like to see windows Mobile finally update the calendar to support multiple Calendars as the Pre, Blackberry and Iphone does .

Does htc hd supports [dlna or upnp ] like nokia devices or it doesnot support it
[Touch HD General] CutePinkSox:
AFAIK there are no real good software options as of now! I was looking for this on almost every winm device I owned but so far didn't find any software third party or pre-loaded OEM that where of any use.

I would however love to be corrected... N95 had good support 2 years ago LOL - if I had any programming skills it would be a good app to develop open a whole new world of possibilities. Like streaming video, and music from my NAS would be ideal.

The closest option you have for that is to MAP a network drive within file explorer on the device - this kind of defeats the object but still allows to play media files.

Does anyone have an Orb app link? Rather have an actual app than browser based
[Touch HD General] dkp1977:
Not sure if it's what you guys are looking for, but you should take a look at Resco File Explorer. Not the cheapest tool for sure, but mapping network drives works fine. You can open all files the device supports and copy anything from the network drive to your device and vice versa.

I have Garmin XT 5.00.20w working fine on my Diamond.

However, I've tried a number of different speed camera databases in the PIO folder, but with each database when I get to the camera, the sound is a pathetic double hiss noise. I can hardly hear it.

I've tried Garmin support and they seem to think it would require a Garmin software update but have no plans to do one yet.

Does anyone know how to change alert tones in Garmin XT 5.00.20w? At least TomTom has a menu dedicated to different alarm tones!

[Palm Treo Pro] rahdo:
Just curious. I got one a couple of months ago, and to my mind, it's just about perfect... fantastic form factor, unbeatable battery life, and lovely 320x320 screen resolution. Feels great to hold in the hand. Keyboard very usable. Generally getting much better coverage than I'm used to as well.

It's easily the best smart phone I've ever used... for reference, my pda/phone history:

Philips Velo 500

Kyocera 6035

Kyocera 7135

Samsung i700

Treo 600

Treo 650

HTC Wizard

HTC Kaiser

Treo Centro

iPhone 3G

Treo Pro

So why no love? What shortcomings am I missing?
[Palm Treo Pro] mrdk910:
I have a pro & i've posed the same question, I think if it was released to a service provider 1st before talk of the pre then it would be more popular & more people would have one & they'd be cookin' up rom's like crazy!

Not to mention the unlocked price is crazy! but honestly so far it's the best most user friendly phone i've ever used! my only problem is keeping finger prints off it
[Palm Treo Pro] mrdk910:
That and no one seeming to care enough to cook rom's or wallpapers etc
[Palm Treo Pro] kraski:
I DO like my phone customized to work the way I do. But either Berdie or Malatesta said something on another forum that really says it all. I'm not quoting directly, but the statement was to the effect that you need to buy a phone because of what you like about it now, not the potential of upgrades & modifications (some of which may never come). It IS a great phone, but, till the Sprint version came out, Palm relied too much on word of mouth for marketing.
[Palm Treo Pro] baimo:
For such a pricey phone, it lacks in screen size an camera quality. I really do love mine, but look forward to wm6.5
[Palm Treo Pro] decalex:
I also think it's a great phone-- without a doubt, I think its lack of popularity has to do with Palm's financial situation and the 6 months it took for sprint to release it. But if you look at it, Palm's focus is on the Pre with its whole new operating system (WebOS). This will make or break them as a company... and I can't imaging sprint charging a lot more for the Pre than the Pro (to be competitive with the iPhone). So we've got a cool looking phone (pro), with a soon to be "old" operating system, with a 320x320 screen for roughly the same price as the pre. I can understand why they wouldn't waste the little money they have promoting it. Still sold me tho.. :)
[Palm Treo Pro] DssTrainer:
I agree... it took palm many years, but they finally made an attractive, comfortable, pocketable "Treo".... I guess it was too little too late. With phones like the Touch Pro and the upcoming Pre.... Treo Pro in synonymous with laser disc and beta max.. Timing is just off. Especially since Sprint is the main US carrier and they are also bringing the Pre... people just waiting I guess.
[Palm Treo Pro] kalibar:
I'm not a fan of the Treo Pro's "Centro-like" keyboard; I really wish they could have preserved the nice keyboard from the 800w and used it on this device too.

Also, what everyone else has said is accurate: low-rez screen, lame camera, too little too late.

How much would an HTC WinMo Pro (or Android) touchscreen QWERTYbar phone with a BlackBerry Bold-style 480x320 screen rule? I think we're all truly waiting for a proper QWERTYbar to come into town. This 320x320 junk smacks too thoroughly of last generation.
[Palm Treo Pro] aero1:
I don't think it is unpopular at all. From what I understand and know it is very popular with corporate clients. Essentially the perfection of a line and form factor with bugs and limits of prior iterations all addressed.

That is very different than it being cutting edge and of interest to narrow groups such as here where people are interested in hacking, rom development and the cutting edge.

I don't know of anyone who is unhappy with theirs. If you know windows mobile and want a solid non-slider front qwerty this is perfect.

It is hardly "too little too late" from that persepctive.

Palms problem was its debacle with the 800w. The 800w was "too little too late at launch" and ahd so many problmes that it got discontinued faster than any phone. It had borken features Palm was never able to fix, very very poor battery.

My Sprint store was never able to sell the 800w, even at $100, but they sell Treo Pro very well.
[Palm Treo Pro] Astropin:
I agree....I think overall it's a very popular phone that appears to be gaining steam.

I got mine for $99 from Alltel with a two year extension. Hard to beat that for a phone like this.

I'm still used to the old PalmOS but being a PC user wrapping my head around WM is not a difficult thing. Great features, Great phone.
[Palm Treo Pro] MogulMan:
Clearly the best...

I've owned too many WM cell phones and before that PDA's... Palm Treo Pro is clearly the best WM Palm cell phone I've ever owned...
[Palm Treo Pro] mmidyette:
I can beat it now, just upgraded to 2 Treo Pros at Alltel for $79 each. They even lowered the price on the HTC Touch Pro to 79$. The HTC was going to be my choice until I started reading up on the Palm. I'm moving from a Mogal.
[Palm Treo Pro] mccune:
It's not just the Palm Treo Pro. The Palm Treo 750 also seemed less popular then other WM phones at the time.

I've owned a Treo 750 then moved to: HTC Diamond > Nokia E71 > Palm Treo Pro.

At the moment I'm testing a Touch HD but my favorite devices to use are still the Palm Treo Pro and Nokia E71.

There are quite some tweaks that I perform to make the Palm Pro run better than it is when it leaves the factory. Should post them here. Still working on a Mortscipt program so users can apply the tweaks themselves. Need some extra time and a little help here and there. But as soon as it's finished I'll post it on my blog as well as on XDA of course :D
[Palm Treo Pro] sammydeng:
I am an user in China, what make pro so unpoplar I think it the price( in China). With lower price, the Samsung I780 can do the same as pro. I bought one PRO and my brother bought i780, his machine is more fast than my PRO. But the look of i780 is not as beautiful and morden as PRO, also the keys of 780 are not suitable when typing a long text. Hope I can learn more of PRO here.

In germany its hard to find a shop with plam phones.

I tried to find one in a city with a population of 1/2 million, no chance.

Also, Palm is only sold by Vodafone. If you ask in any other shop for a Palm: "Palm? Whats that? Never heard of it." I f u ask in Vodafoneshop: "Maybe we can order it."

If you show anyone your phone: "Oh, you`ve got a BlackBerry?!"

Its not the Pro that is umpopular in germany, its Palm.

Why are the HTC phones such crap?

i have looked at the NOKIA phones recently, and they are light years ahead of this HTC bull****.

Both the Diamond, and the TP2 dont have a headphone jack?????

wtf

they are cheap plastic

their battery lives suck

The nokia phones are metal body, they have

HEADPHONE JACKS

CHARGING JACKS

and

USB JACKS!

OMFG! and this is standard on almost ALLLL their phones.

the Treo pro being possibly the only ok WM smartphone to have a headphone jack recently

Like what the hell is wrong with them

your gona pay 750$ For a Touch Pro 2, and you dont get a headphone jack?

WTF????

WTF???

WTF??

WTF?

and people buy this ****?

how bout try selling a laptop with no headphone jack too now

seriously HTC needs to be renamed to CRAP

these phones they release

are peices of **** and the only reason they sell

is cuz of their name.

I think i know now why most of the world is using Nokia
[Palm Treo Pro] thoughtlesskyle:
in all defense, HTC wasnt much better when they were audiovox or ut starcom

then again motorola's have stupid amounts of problems and design flaws yet people still stand in line to get them.

as for palm, i have had 3 of them now and there are always little quirks with them but over all i feel they are pretty solid, sprint has the treo pro set for like $199 after rebate and they raised the price of the touch diamond. I switched from a touch pro to a treo pro about a month ago and i couldnt be happier.

i do think palms marketing is really the key here. Also i would love an offical launch date from sprint about that damn palm pre that they have been building the hype of for like 3 months now its almost to a point where i dont have any intrest in it because of all the waiting
[Palm Treo Pro] cenkaetaya:
hey, same here i switch from the touch pro after 3 months of use, and.. i could NOT be happier seriously i have not even though of that touch pro for any reason except

sliding out the keyboard in and out when im bored... lol

other then that, .. i dont have hours and hours to test roms, install / reinstall apps to get my phone to do .. what the treo pro does already.

NOTE: To me, selling a 600+ dollar media / business device with a screen (getting close to that of an EeePC) without a headphone jack is litteraly like complete and utter bull****. I was so looking farward to the Touch Pro 2, but now i have no care for it at all.
[Palm Treo Pro] Synergie:
I just bought a Treo Pro - Came from an HTC P4000 (Mogul) with a couple of Blackberries in between. I had to go back to WinMo because although BB's do what they do really well (communications) I was missing the ability to customize to my heart's content, and use more advanced apps.

I love the Treo Pro! I tried out the Touch Pro and didn't like it, I wanted the blackberry form factor, with hardware keys. I hated dialing on the screen on the Mogul. And the touch pro, is the same, unless you wanna slide out the keyboard to make a call..... PITA.

The compromise for having a front facing qwerty? Screen size.... you either have to have a very very long device to fit the keyboard below, or have a smaller screen. Some devices chose to go landscape like the HP 910c... but they actually faired out worse because they are 320x240. The Treo Pro is 320x320 and the screen is actually slightly larger. As for screen resolution... how many pixels do you really need to fit on a 2.5" screen anyway??? I don't see any pixelation on this at all! It looks very crisp and sharp!

As for popularity.... it's brand new here in Canada, and hasn't taken off yet, but I think it will. I have the CDMA version of the Treo Pro, which I think has a slightly faster processor and slightly more available memory. The OS is snappy, no lagging at all, and I love the form factor!! Psssssst, it fits in most iphone 3G cases too!

And coming from a long line of Windows Mobile / Pocket PC (even before phone edition), I think the whole WebOS thing is limiting, and overrated..... just my opinion about the Pre
[Palm Treo Pro] carlos2008:
I just switched from the htc touch pro to the treo pro ad I love it, I have the seidio extended battery 3500amh and the sennheiser m200 bluetooth headphones.I never run short of power, the best media and business phone so far.
[Palm Treo Pro] mccune:
I think you mean the 3600mAh?

Was thinking about the 1800mAh since this does not require me to use a bigger back cover on this nice piece of hardware ;)

But I read that this would even have less standy and talktime compared to the stock one :S
[Palm Treo Pro] atomic2mod:
Hi! I have a few questions to the Treo Pro users. Thanks for taking the time to read and hopefully answer them!

Been an avid WM user since the early pocketpc days. Went through each and every pocketpc phone upgrade as they became availble through Sprint.

After using the Touch Pro for a few month, I stepped down to the Diamond for the smaller size, but lost the keyboard.

I've been eyeing the Treo Pro because of this, small size, keyboard. But: I have never owned a WM standard phone and wonder if it does the same things as what I have been using. By this I mean mostly using a finance app, such as SpbFinance, which syncs with MSMoney and displayes my blanances on the home screen via plugin.

Does the Treo Pro run the same softwares? Does is support the same plugins? Any of you using a financial app such as this?

This is really the most important factor for me, to have vital info available on the home screen (time, date, appointments, communications & the finance plugin).

Thanks a bunch!
[Palm Treo Pro] Nakamura85:
On my Treo 800w Spb and Resco applications works perfect.

But I have problems with most of "table" games (such as Sudoku and Pocker).

About battery life on 800w - I've got it after HTC TyTN and used such as phone+stereo bluetooth headset (for music - about 3-4 hours)+view my mail (aprox 20 times a day). Battery works "from dawn till dusk".
[Palm Treo Pro] andy g.:
The Treo Pro in not WM Standard, it's WM Professional: If has a touch screen. Of course it runs the same software, there may be some few exceptions where the software is not runnig well with 320x320 resolution due to bad programming.
[Palm Treo Pro] jamespaulritter:
I returned mine because the keyboard was just to small. I loved it but I just got sick of the typos. I had to go with a Fuze,,,,, bigger keyboard. I was sad to send a palm device back. I truly truly loved my 600, 650. 700wx and 750. I was ashamed to not love the Treo Pro.
[Palm Treo Pro] guilledil:
As someone mentioned a few posts before, the problem is that Palm is not as popular as other companies outside US. Here in Peru the Treo Pro has not arrived yet and the Treo 750 is US$ 150 with a 1.5 year contract of US$ 115 monthly!!! Crazy stuff....

In my case, I got my Treo Pro in the US for US$ 400 and use a US$ 10 plan that suits me perfectly!!

I think there are just too many choices and people are uneducated. The new google phones are coming out in force too and they are COOL. The iphone is great but it has it's many drawbacks the biggest one being that it's only available on ATT network.

The capabilities of these phones are great. I love being able to teather to my PC and do bt2 ad2p playing mp3's without skipping a beat.

It would be nice to have more screen real estate but I also enjoy a real keyboard. Can't have you cake and eat it too.

For the most part I love this phone, the form factor is great. Would love to see a wM 6.5 update or a custom rom come out.
[Palm Treo Pro] colonel:
well I just bought one. It was either this or the HTC Snap, but I was persuaded by the extra pixels and touch screen and the fact that the touch pro is £60 cheaper on ebay (new and boxed).

I like running two phones, one touch screen and one keyboarded. I tend to use the keyboarded one when I am travelling and occasionaly when I have periods of lots of personal email. My touch screen phone is the HTC Magic, which is, quite frankly, magic! but keyboarded phones are a completely different market. The touch pro is very competative new on ebay, compared to the samsung c6625 or the htc snap. I don't like symbian. I had a nokia e71 for a bit, but the way winMo treates email is so superior. Also the software available for winMo is much better IMHO. I hope MS pulls its finger out with 6.5 and then 7, as Android is really leading the way at the moment. Saying that, winMo is actually pretty good with a keyboarded phone. I think the treo pro is terrific!

Thats the first time that I see the data side by side. I think the treo feels slimmer because of its rounder appearance. But for people with big handys the i780 is the right choice.
