And I tried the Exchange sync in setting-->Data synchronize

I used the parameters below:

mail:my gmail

server: m.google.com

username: my full gmail address

password: *******

It says that Authentication failed . please verify username/password.

what's wrong? plz help
[G1 Android Development] iammrwizard:
Did you sign into your Google account? I have been trying the G and H builds and I usually skip when it first asks, then setup my wifi and then go to the market. If you haven't synced it will ask you to sign in with your Google username and password and then it should start syncing. I have a good 200+ contacts, takes it well under 5min using wifi.
[G1 Android Development] warking:
It's OK For G build, but not for H

Contacts sync OK when I used 5.0.1G build. But HTC version did not do contacts sync. both gmail and calendar sync correctly.
[G1 Android Development] mrjay:
google sync works great in 5.0.2H. everything was synced, mail, contacts, calendar.
[G1 Android Development] oDeACoNo:
Same here, I've been testing out both 5.0.2H and 5.0.1G builds and with the HTC build I was able to sign in right after the update and sync right away. While with the Google build I skipped the sign in and then once my phone was fully booted up I then signed in an sync'd but both builds pulled in all contacts, calendar entry's and mail.
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
I've noticed this too ... everything syncs fine ... however I've created a contact on the phone and it hasn't synced to google contacts?

I'm on the 5.0.2H Apps to SD rom.
[G1 Android Development] scepterr:
I believe somebody mentioned contacts syncing one way only, from Google to phone over at the haykuro thread.
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
Thanks, I'm going to try The Dude's rom now anyhow .... see what it's all about and if the syncing works :)
[G1 Android Development] dyussen:
I switched to the newest Haykuro H build and can confirm that this works. I tested by adding a fake phone number and then logged in on the web to my gmail, checked contacts and there it was. However, I did replace the Google Sync Control and that might be what you need to do to get the contacts to successfully sync 2-ways.

Do numbers 5 & 7 on pg1.

Files from #7 if you're too lazy to download Dude's ROM and search through it for the 3 files you need, were posted by the brains behind this one, nabzilla1990, on pg 28:

Good luck!
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
On the H build, select google instead of device when making a new contact.
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
Thanks for these, I'm getting an error when pushing no 7 .... says no such file or directory? am I doing something wrong?
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
Anyone help with the above please? - TIA.
[G1 Android Development] jspookss:
Thanks! Worked like a charm! I had completely overlooked that drop down box.
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
Erm, is it just me .... I don't have that option when making a new contact?
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
Anyone please ..... I also installed the fix for the H build, but still no joy in syncing .... I don't see the option in the 'new contact' section?
[G1 Android Development] lemaj5:
@SatanR1

Did you go to settings, data syncronization, hit menu, sync now, and check auto-sync? That did it for me after the google sync mod!!!
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
Yes, I did this .... but the contact I added to the phone is still showing as 'device' and does not sync online with my googla contacts!
[G1 Android Development] lemaj5:
Ok i have never encountered the option to save as device or google or however it goes, but i just looked into my contacts and when i click the contacts tab, then menu, settings, edit sync groups, sync all contacts *

My contacts *

Exchange *

PC *

Starred in Android*

Hope this helps!
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
I dont see that!

In contacts, i goto menu then have these options

Search

New Contact

Display Groups

Import Contacts

I dont have the settings tab or anything like that! :(
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
I've had my Dash for a while now, and I switch between roms not all too often, but every time one annoys me. The first time, I didn't know i could back up my data, but after that I started to make backups with SPB Backup (now trying Sprite as well). In both of these, it says that they back up everything (unless modified, which i do not). So now I want to change my rom again, and I was wondering, if I do a full backup of my phone under Rose Rom 1.7 remade by Ricky & Stylez and I switch to lets say Ricky's v2.4 and the restore, would it mess up my phone? I only think this because everything would include the registry (am i correct?) and to replace the registry of a new rom with that of a different rom would mess up the phone (correct?). I need to have some parts of the registry because of the programs i have installed (some use the registry, if not all [i think]).

Obviously im not extremely knowledgable on the way the Dash/Excalibur works, just want to know what is the best method to do this.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Your correct you do not want to use a backup from one ROM flash a different ROM then use the backup.

New ROM fresh install of programs and tweaks.
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
i was looking at another thread about backing up data on this forum. In there someone recommended using SKTools to backup specific registry entries. Should i make a back up of MY Files and a backup of the registry entries that relate to the programs i have installed? Would it still work if i restored just my files (no rom files or system files) and the specific registry entries to the new rom?

I am assuming the safest, most crash-preventing way to do this is to do as you said Stylez, just do a fresh install and reinstall everything after that...
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
The registry entrys where

HKLM\Security\CHome

&

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CHome

The only prob with that is the the RoseROM is set up slightly different.

But you could just back up the specific parts.
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Thnks for ur help Stylez, I guess ill take the safe, but slightly longer way and just reinstall everything from scratch so i dont have to go hunting around the regsitry with SKTools for everything i need to back up.
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
Those two areas of the registry were my question in the other thread, and it worked out perfectly. I also use Sprite Backup, and it's excellent software.

As for restoring with Sprite, it will not let you run a normal restore when you change roms, because it recognizes when you've changed and will only allow an "upgrade" restore, which allows you to restore personal files, your internet favorites and other things like that. Also, it will allow you to selectively restore these things, as it typically does when you do a normal restore. Make sure you're using the latest Sprite Backup, as it's more reliable with these things.

My own $0.02, after you have any rom set up how you like it, do a full "clean" backup. Then make a folder on your microsd to which you copy your favorites, cpr files, bronzeres.dll if you've modified it, registry portions (like the two I asked about), etc. Then when you switch to a new rom, you can pretty much copy these files back over and take a lot of the headache out of tweaking a new rom... don't worry about backing up reg entries for software you installed outside of the rom, because it's easier to just reinstall those with the new rom.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Wow only ever used Sprite once and it cacked out on me didn't realize you could do an upgrade. Will have to try a newer vesion out as with Tilt it's a new ROM to try every week.

Was there not a diference in the reg as i'm sure that the settings panel and since no weather the reg will be different between Kavana & Rose?
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
So lets say we want to back up PERSONAL DATA. This "Personal Data" excludes programs, system files, ROM files (dont know if you consider system and rom the same, but whatever).

So on Sprite Backup, to do so you would obviously have to do a custom backup. Are these good options to use:::

==================================

(You are presented with a list similar to the one you get when browsing just folders in the windows explorer)

PIM>Select All

Mail>Select All

My Documents>Select All

System Data>Select the following:

>Browser Favorites>Favorites

Storage Card (if you have one)>DONT Select the following(if they exist):

>Application Data

>Program Files

>Windows

=======================================

Under System Data>Browser Favorites there is Browser System Data (reg entry it looks like) and Favorites (a folder), so i thought maybe only select the folder since the new rom will have the registry entries for the browser...is the correct?

Would that custom backup work out?
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
Yes, there was a difference, and I exported and imported the reg entries with Resco Explorer... but it didn't remove any registry entries, just overwrote the ones that existed in CHome when I exported. So my reg contains the following panels, for example for HKLM>Software>Microsoft>CHome>:

CAppointments, CClock, CHome, CLinks, CLock, CMessage, CMusic, CMyApplication, CMyFaves, CMyPhotos, COffice, CQuicklist, CTestUIPlugin, CWelcomeCenter, CWindowsLive, Fonts, HTCEMAIL, HTCFavorite, HTCMUSIC, HTCSMSMMS, HTCWeather, myfaves, Settings

Just do a FULL backup... you can restore selectively from that too. I always do full backups, that way I can restore selectively when I switch to a new rom...and then if I decide to go back to the ROM I had before, I reflash and do a full restore (just remember to change the Sprite restore settings to "delete all files" and to Replace files, not merge them).
[Touch Cruise Accessories] depeche101:
Hello all the wizards of this site!

I own a Touch cruise for abt 1,5 years. Have always been a fan of this site and used cooked ROM's from the very beginning. Now the problem with my device.

I took it from my pocket and put it on a table. Afterwards when taking the phone I had a missed appointment on my screen. Trying to dismiss it I noticed the screen didn't react to any touches. So at first I thought the device had hanged. Soft reset but nothing..I couldn't even dismiss the alert as the screen didn't react. That's the first time I thought the screen might be broken. So I did some research from the internet and found that a Hard Reset might help. Tried hard resetting but couldn't do it. I'm pushing the Internet Explorer and GPS buttons (lower softkeys) and pushing the stylus to reset button but nothing...just a soft reset. So I thought I'd install a new ROM as that should also erase everything from the devices memory...nothing. The new rom is installed but I'm now stock in the screen alignment Touching the screen doesn't work where the cross is..as I run my finger all across the screen it seems that lower left part is kind of responsive as the small cross moves when I touch the lower left part of the screen. Now I noticed that the screen has an oily line in the center of the screen...

so what am I to do? Screen broken? Why can't I hard reset then? The warranty of course is for 2 years but I'm quite sceptical if this goes under warranty..they can alway say that something has hitted the screen or smthng.

Any knowledge and help is appreciated..

thank you in advance

dep w/ broken device:(

Hi there I know there is a sticky post about this. Bit I have now followed it several times and all seem to go fine but I still have OliNex 1.07 HSPL. is there another way to restore stock spl?

I wanna do this cause I keep getting green screen issue with new rom release
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
No, there is just one way, which is described within the HSPL thread.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DaveShaw:
Make sure you are using the SSPL and are flashing the correct image (by that I mean you're not re-flashing Hard SPL).

Any other problems please post in the Hard SPL thread - Thread closed.

I´m very doubtful, which release i should take. in the "porting-thread", it´s about fifty-fifty, isn´t it??
[G1 Android Development] IzzeLing:
Do the Google one. The HTC one (for me) wouldn't do EDGE or 3G. I'm using the Google build right now with no problems at all :)
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
Neither really, but leaning more to HTC because of exchange. I honestly just don't want to set my phone up again. Takes forever.
[G1 Android Development] ghoonk:
Minker, are you even able to get the Exchange sync working? Mine keeps saying Processing and never stops until I get a Force Close.
[G1 Android Development] imfloflo:
I'm using 5.0.2.H Exchange and Google sync work great on the same time on it for me.
[G1 Android Development] Minker17:
Yup, worked for me on Saturday. Sent myself an e-mail and everything.
[G1 Android Development] ghoonk:
I'm on 5.0.1H ZH (due to the fact that it's pointless to have Chinese support and not the fonts). What was changed in 5.0.2H to get Exchange working?

the Exchange client is now saying 'Synchronizing Email'... will watch and see what happens

UPDATE : IT WORKS!
[G1 Android Development] CBowley:
I'm running g, I tried h, but h is still a little too buggy for me, plus all the chinese stuff gets in the way, and I couldn't get the soft keyboard to work.

G does not have the HTC Exchange sync if I'm not mistaken.
[G1 Android Development] ghoonk:
You're correct. G does not have Exchange Sync

I just had over 200 contacts duplicated in my G1 as they were on my Exchange and my Gmail, and now I have no way of getting rid of the duplicates. Looks like I'm going to have to clear out all data (reflash) and start from scratch

Anyone that has exchange/activesync working in 5.0.xH builds mind helping me get mine working?

I keep trying to get it to work but I keep getting "Authentication Failed. Please verify username and/or password."

I can get TouchDown to work no problems but one thing I noticed is that TouchDown has an option for Exchange 2003 (which I have to check for TouchDown to work) but the Exchange/ActiveSync in 5.0.xH does not. Anyone know how to set the Exchange/ActiveSync to use Exchange2003 or know what I'm doing wrong?

Please help.

Thanks

[G1 Android Development] KyleK29:
I noticed a lot of those. But I'm wondering if these are apps that will be broken in the new release and require patches by their developers. That isn't all to uncommon when it comes to OS updates.

I noticed apps dealing with the screen brightness (flashlight, useful switches[flashlight mode], power manager, etc) tend to Force Close.
[G1 Android Development] pnagster:
im luvin it!!!

i just found out about the haykuro releases yesterday... after a lot of reading i went for the 5.0.2H version because of the supposed prettyness of graphics and such. i got to say.. im loving it. i feel better and better that i bought this phone over the diamond, its soo much more exciting i guess haha. i have had no problems so far, other than some apps not working. everyone should get the overclock app from the market...
[G1 Android Development] CBowley:
Yes the H is a lot prettier.

[G1 Android Development] robpet2:
For those having problems setting up exchange, try doing it over wifi ( if you are on Edge network )
[G1 Android Development] kronosx1:
After much reading and allot of personal testing, i went with H. It wasnt about the graphics being better. It was more about features. I like the camera and camcorder. Plus the overall feel to me is just right. I would say to anyone on the fence, just test both for 24 hours each and see what one you prefer. Thats what i did and i am MORE than happy. Haykuro is the man. He and his cohorts are doing a tremendous job with this project. I anxiously look forward to the future and cant wait to see whats next.
[G1 Android Development] toolbox123:
After two days of testing each build. I desided on the G build. To me, it seemed a little bit more stable than H. I do like a lot of the features that come with the H build. The camera/camcorder is awesome. I like the look of the H build too. But when it comes down to it. It's all about stability. And I found more of that in G. Not to mention you have to do a wipe everytime with the H build. Pain in my ass.
[G1 Android Development] i9zero:
I'm using G because I want to be able to read my Korean and Japanese email, but then again who knows what the next future release would change my mind to.
[G1 Android Development] xavier6303:
Tried it on wifi...no dice. I guess I'll have to keep reinstalling TouchDown for the 5 day trial.
[G1 Android Development] bigballa:
ive tried out both and they are both equally stable

the same apps dont work on each or there are some problems

i went with H because it was infact nicer looking :D

i only went with H because whats the point of sticking with the same look is the point is to check out the new things? i might as well stick with H cuz i love the VK alot more than the google keyboard

the prediction on G is stupid and doesnt respond if i type to fast.

the H build VK is exceptionally amazing!

Make sure you have the right server address in there. I have Autodiscover setup on my exchange server at work but it still found the wrong url. it had the right domain but didn't add mail. in front of it.

Also some exchange servers want you to put in domain\username.

Anyone with 5.0.2H notice that most the time it will say H for 3G...I noticed today it said 3G for a few seconds but went back to H. Anyone else notice this?
[G1 Android Development] jusplainmike:
I have noticed as well.
[G1 Android Development] reuthermonkey:
[H]SPA is to [3g] as [E]dge is to [G]PRS.

What you and he probably saw was HSPA drop for a few moments, and your phone only locked onto UMTS (3g). Then it saw the HSPA again, and went back to HSPA.
[G1 Android Development] optikalsaint:
I'm currently running 5.0.2H and I'll probably switch to the G build because of two annoying bugs I have found. None of the accounts I have set up in the Email app ever check for updates, no matter which time limit I set for it. Also when opening up a new account the app doesn't auto check for new email like the old R33 email app did.

The second annoying thing I noticed is that new contacts and calendar events are not auto syncing. I tried going into the Setup menu to make sure they were set to auto sync but the only syncing options available are for Exchange.
[G1 Android Development] i9zero:
I just switched to the 5.0.2H r3 version from 5.0.1G. I deleted the Mail.apk and teeter.apk to make room for the fonts to read all languages. It seems like I can use appmanager to reinstall mail from the sdcard instead of just pushing to the system/app.

I just like the H build dialer better + PDF and more featured camera is always a +

A New version of Boing is available on my website. This requires a device that has opengl es support.

Touch the screen or use arrow keys to start or pause the game.

Tilt the device side to side to move the ball.

Enter button exits the game.

When paused, touching the lower portion of the screen where it says resume will resume

and touching the upper area where it says exit will exit the game.

-------------

BOING... is a game built for use on a HTC windows mobile phone with a tilt sensor / accelerometer / g-sensor. Move the device to move the ball and bounce from platform to platform.

-older version instructions-

The phone I used to test development has a resolution of 240 x 320.

I have tried to add support for larger resolutions but am unable to test.

I have also tried to make it usable by phones without an accelerometer with the arrow keys.

Please visit my website http://flyingmonkeypuke.com/boing

It is playable but I am still having some trouble with consistent platform generation and collision detection.

Hi, could you put some screenshots? Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bugsykoosh:
It's neat. Tested on a Fuze/Touch Pro and it works well. There's some slight flickering going on. Are you going to build in levels or something similar?

For anyone asking - there are 'trampolines' that a ball bounces off of and goes higher and you need to move the device left/right to move the ball around while it's in air and the platforms are spaced out randomly. I like the concept. MyMobiler won't pick it up on a screenshot...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] necrotek:
Thanks for trying it out. I was curious how it plays on a vga resolution. The way I tried to support larger resolutions was to just add more platforms when a larger screen size was detected which probably adds more of a problem with the randomly generated platforms. Unless the ddraw is scaling to fit the vga screen which might be the cause of the flickering? It runs smooth and with no flicker on my device.

I am working on an opengl project at the moment. I will revisit this project and make some adjustments when I can.

I couldn't get MyMobiler to work to get a screen shot either so I just mocked one up.
