I'm trying to find a useable TouchFlo3D as well as ROMs to use. I'm using the factory Verizon WM6.1 with GPS hacked. Everything works fine with this rom except for the TouchFlo app. Changing Themes and such within the TF3D app just doesn't work. I'm assuming because my phone is a Touch Pro and not a Diamond?

Are you using a custom ROM? Have you changed the radio? Does your camera preview work correctly?

ive had the same problem with my phone as well. What rom did you install?

i have NATF's v4.5 rom on mine.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] teoami:
I had the same issue when I flashed a WinMo 6.5 ROM. To fix it, lock your phone, have someone call you while it is locked. Answer the phone and you will have a "volume" button. This will let you increase the base WinMo call volume. Unfortunately, you have to do that after every soft reset. I'm sure there is a registry key to change this permanently, I just haven't had the time to look for it.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] nirpaudyal:
I recently got the HD. Must say, it is a sexy beast. One factor that led me to choose this over the iPhone was -

* A greater selection of apps and the ability to install whatever you wished.

I am a keen game player and currently, with the HTC HD I have the following problems.

1. Lack of D-Pad/hardware buttons means that there many existing titles are unsuitable for play

2. The screen ratio means that more titles dont play (in full resolution).

3. There just arent any good motion controlled games (whereas, there IS on the iPhone)

4. Game titles that do work properly on the HD (and even those that dont) are boring/not very fluid/not exciting/2D - certainly not the case for the iPhone.

5. Game development for the iPhone seems an active process - every week, one hears of a new innovative game release for the iPhone, which one never hears for the HD or other PPC.

6. I tried using emulators - including the PSX one, just too slow, doesnt do much for me.

What do people have to say about the list above? Specifically:

1. Is there any way of playing iPhone games on the HTC HD

2. Why is no one making use of the HTC HDs gaming potential/motion sensor?

From a rather cheated purchacher.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] str0nz0:
OMG i cant hear it anymore. every second post is whining about the so cool iphone and the crappy touch hd.

windows mobile has the problem that it has good applications, but boring games. many developers seem still to think that its only a phone for business usage.

the touch hd is not a dedicated gaming device, if you want one, you have to buy a psp or iphone. thats it.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] anoniem:
just listen carefully , its not the problem of the device(its windows mobile so it has the ability to accept great games and its also proved by the Xtrakt game!) , its the problem of the developers there are no / or a little developers that can make games like Xtrakt. (oh btw Xtrakt wasnt even developed by a hd user or for the hd it was developed for the Xperia )

sorry, if im wrong just delete this reply or ignore it !

sorry for my bad English
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bugsykoosh:
The problem is that every company that makes phones can use any chipset they want and there is no SDK for developers to use that is standardized for all Windows phones. hopefully with the next line of HTC phones there will be enough in that line to encourage developers to figure it out. Anyway, try Need For Speed as well and you can enable the gsen to work for it until the new version (that EA is including the gsen in) is released: http://www.fuzemobility.com/need-for-speed-gsen-enabled-now/

if u ask me... 800x480 is new one to developers(popular device) so they need time to adapt their new games so u will play to your device...till now u got 640x480 games working on your blackstone(adapted somehow ) and wait for new 1 to come... :)

cheer :)

ps. u cant compare iphone with blackstone cos, trust me, iphone its not worth it
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] WinterKnights:
my missus has an iphone and they are two completly different phones its like comparing a toaster with a microwave.

iphone has great games and gui interface and is damn easy to use but it lacks applications and modifications

get your missus to get an iphone that way u can play the games on hers while still modifying your hd!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] skulk3r:
I don't know why you feel "cheated" because really, you should have known that coming in.

Also, WVGA screens are not all that popular at the moment - you've bought a leading edge device and support is still coming - wait for the TD2 and TP2, and then you should see a lot more apps coming.

Also, iPhone has the App Store - developers have incentive to make games for /one/ platform (2 if you count iPod Touch)...WM developers have to cater for so many devices that it's almost ridiculous - not to mention that people will just pirate the software anyway.

Wait until the Microsoft MarketPlace goes online for a bit, and you should see a lot more games and apps coming your way.

But honestly? If you got want a phone to play games, then get an iPhone. If you want a phone to play music, get a Nokia 5800 or an iPhone..if you want a phone that you can watching HQ vids on, flash the brains out of, with tons of add-ons, without fear of fiddling around and tweaking that phone until it's uniquely yours, then get a Touch HD. WinMo is not the most user-friendly OS out there...but that's why we have XDA and all those awesome cooks/devs out there!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] nirpaudyal:
I need a missus first! my desire to be playing games on my Sexy HD seems more costly than the i had imagined :mad:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] nirpaudyal:
I could be very wrong but microsoft market place has been online for years. i certainly recall submitting my own applications around 4 years ago.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] nirpaudyal:
Just to summarize, I now understand that there is lack of good games for the HD for the following reasons:

1. Software/hardware of every single windows mobile is different therefor, developers do not know what to target. iPhone is what it is.

2. People who buy WM are not interested in flashy games

3. The hardware of HD is superior to iPhone for playing games. But despite this, people are not interested in development because of these reasons.

4. Its easy to download cracked games and stuff for WM devices so developers are losing out.

5. there are ok games out there but most of them have one or more limitations (e.g. sensor support, wrong screen resolution)

6. If you want the fully customizable phone and the joys of playing games on an iPhone, you first need a woman.

7. Microsoft will never do anything to get these problems sorted.

8. Looks like we WM users will never have proper games for our devices.

Depressing thought really.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] skulk3r:
you're right, it is depressing...but with the new WVGA devices coming out soon, with Windows Mobile 6.5 on the way, we should see new interest in WM devices and hopefully games for them.

and you may be right about the marketplace, but I am sure that Microsoft are planning on releasing the Microsoft Marketplace (or re-releasing it) with WM6.5 launch, it will function in much the same way as the Android version and the Palm version - to compete with the charm of the AppStore

+1 the naked truth!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] armatan:
Windows Mobile

HD is a very good mobile hardware, the problem is the software used , Windows Mobile , which is very limited for the applications versus the competitor system Mac iPhone. I have and I am using both of them for my private business. With the firmware version 3, iPhone is going to be a superior and first in class of technology for the mobile market. No doubt!

Actually you can find a lot of applications and games working very well on iPhone (see appulo.us), meanwhile on HD the selection is very, very limited. In the next future, also the viruses will start to growth around in windows mobile system, and again it will be a problem similar to XP system forced to use antivirus software, etc.

This is the truth, all the rest it’s just a sterile discussion...nothing else.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] konstantin77:
The way I see it, Blackstone is one of the first major HTC sellers, that makes use of a 480x800 screen res....The newest and coming up models, are to have the exact same screen res.and in addition, the same processor and RAM capacity, like Diamond 2, Pro 2 etc.

So, hopefully, more users will own the same "platform" (mobile phone's specifications)- meaning there will be more room for potentional customers of the developers' programs.

Keep in mind, that the more popular a platform is, the more the developers want to work with it...And iPhone, at least as a standalone device, is by far more popular than any Htc device...

However, consider 4-5 or more Htc models, with the same specs as the HD...Now that should make a difference....shouldn't it?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Eufeion:
Lets break this down nice a simple:

IPhone - One of apples "up there own arse" products who stand there saying "Hay we have loads of support from others an were know for our best selling IPod so.....lets jump on the phone market" make it look all shiny an add loads of apps an Itunes Support!

HTC Touch HD - I know let do a phone that use windows, can have the OS upgraded with future possibilites for apps, fully PC compable for access (As not everyone can aford A £800 Mac), A large nice screen, word that is back compatable with older docs and more.

Personaly Apple piss me off as I'm a music producer an there so up them selfs with "Logic Pro - Mac Only".....Oh wait Cubase is multi-format.

You see my point here?! Apple have for me have just bandwagon jumped "cashing in" so to speak on the phone market an keeping all the arps exclusive for the I-Phone much like Logic only for there Macs - yeah good phone but for how long?

Rant Over!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] MAMeingast:
Will the new firmware finally be able to really multi-task? If not, then it still is by far inferior to WM...

Most really interesting apps are available in some form for WM... The only category not satisfying is in fact games...

I'm quite sure alot of people would disagree... Myself including!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Noodled24:
^ Pretty sure I read that the new iphone/software will allow multi-tasking.

RE: "Most really interesting apps are available in some form for WM... The only category not satisfying is in fact games..."

While that is true, the keywords there are "most" and "in some form".

I dont like apple products, and doubt I would ever buy one. But with the iphone they have redefined what people want and are coming to expect from high end handsets.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] MAMeingast:
That is very true... but I think it is only a matter of time until interesting concepts are "ported" to WM... Just look at TouchFlo: This effort of making WM finger-friendly is a direct result of the iphone - and my HD is becoming more finger-friendly with every new ROM released here!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] nirpaudyal:
Lets be fair. Despite my love for my HTC HD, I have come to accept that those with iPhones enjoy something greater than what we can ever hope to... entertainment to the max when it comes to games... developers are gagging for it.

also, let us not say that iPhone is for bums and WM devices are for the social elite... the reality is that most users are looking for a, when X equals the benefits of a PDA phone, 'mobile phone with X' (X being the extra), not 'X with a mobile phone' (mobile phone being the extra). I just wish in the case of the latter, X could also include games.

With my HD, I have already enjoyed the GPS with TomTom, WiFi and all the hours of fun it brings, software programming and trying out some random apps (many of which dont work, however had elated prior to actually running them). I dont think an iPhone, despite it obvious offer of sensually pleasing games, could have left me satisfied so, especially when I dont have a missus.

I have to be honest, things are looking up, the need for speed game appears to be an exciting development.

Hi,

I do not wish to flash my phone with Hardspl etc!

I wish to use the sim unlock entry code to open my phone, via the official route.

The cheapest I have found is £15 at:

Does anybody know where I can get it cheaper?

Thanks for that Dave!

I was under the impression that the olinex unlock is based around reflashing my phone though!

I do not want to load any software and use my usb cable. I just want a sim unlock entry code.

Are you 100% sure this works the same way?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] DaveShaw:
It works 100% in a different way. I didn't read your post properly, I missed the "code unlock only" part. Soz. :o:o

Dave
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Digiguide74:
Many thanks anyway Dave.

Just found another site that unlocks for £2.99

http://www.instantunlockcodes.co.uk/

This one may be hard to beat!

Seems like a fair price! So I will try this one out and post my findings on whether it was any good.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Digiguide74:
Just read their T's & C's and am bit worried they may not actually get me the code for £2.99 as my mobile is not listed in their compatibility database.

Think I still prefer my original link!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Digiguide74:
As no cheaper price added by any XDA users decided to go with www.fonesunlock.co.uk

Price paid was £15.71 71 pence charge was for Paypal payment charge. As soon as I had paid for the unlock code, I received the code at the bottom of my invoice. Put an O2 sim into my Orange Diamond and entered the unlock code a couple of times and hey presto it was unlocked. Due to the speed and efficiency of this service I would highly recommend it those not wishing to flash their phones, but still wanting to use any sim.

Anyone else had any good/ bad experiences with sim unlock?

Is it possible to tether one G1 (with a data plan) to another G1 (without a data plan) ?

I did search but it's hard finding results with common keywords such as "wifi tether phone to phone" or such.

Thanks,

[G1 Apps and Games] axion68:
I would imagine you could accomplish this with root on the phone with the data plan and have an adhoc wifi app running. Then connect the non-data plan phone via wifi to the data phone and it may work.
[G1 Apps and Games] neoobs:
you can use the infastructure mode to accomplish this with root on the data phone using the tether binaries (you have to start it manually or manually edit the tiwlan.ini) search a couple of my posts and you will see what you need to change.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] AllTheWay:
I recently upgraded to the official HTC 1.56 ROM.

Flashed it as I normally do via the microSD card. Everything seemed to be fine but once I got the boot screen the colors went from white to teal colored. Even the boot up image is teal colored.

Once the ROM boots up the color issue is still there.

If I turn off the backlight and then turn it back on the colors go back to normal with no issues. If I soft reset it will go back to the weird color issue again. I have tried flashing 3 other ROMs....the official shipped ROM that came with my device and other ROMs as well.

Anybody else ever heard of something like this or have a problem such as this before.

Any advice help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
