So basicly it will have the new snapdragon chips.

Probably running 1Ghz, and having a 8MP camera, and a 3.6 size screen...

Admins, delete if this has already been posted.
[Touch HD General] foaf:
I don't know anything about the Snapdragon chips, but I really wanted it to have the nVidia Tegra chip. The demo of that is amazing, and the Zune HD will have it, apparently.

Thanks for the info

:eek: UGLY design
[Touch HD General] Everdog:
Smaller screen? :(

I thought there were more larger screen HTC phones coming? I make fun of all my iPhone friends with their dinky 3.5 inch screens!
[Touch HD General] RobbyTouchHD:
Hmm if it really has a smaller screen than I´ll better buy me the toshiba tg01 with it´s 4.1" screen! Ok its bigger than the touch hd but its thinner too (just search google pictures and type: touch hd tg01). And it also will have the 1GHz snapdragon chip. The video performance must be also great on the toshiba as you can see at some sample movies. And you can easy adjust the cpu speed on it when you don´t need all the speed and more battery power!

So if this here really will be the next touch hd than I really have to say "bye bye htc for the next months".

I´m sorry for my english :-)
[Touch HD General] Sallcho:
isn't that a russian touch hd on the screen? (google "touch hd yota")
[Touch HD General] MAMeingast:
WOW! The TG01 is really sleek and thin! Nice! But the standard screen (those coloured vertical stripes) is REEEEAAALLLYYY UGLY!!! :eek:
[Touch HD General] Feromon:
Indeed it is ;)
[Touch HD General] supasye:
i thought the touch hd 2 is the whitestone?
[Touch HD General] galaxys:
Saw on PDAdb.net that Toshiba have also announced a TG02, TG03, K01, K02, & L01 all with Snapdragon for this year. A ppc marketing fit for everybody. They are taking no prisoners!!
[Touch HD General] j0nb0y:
I'm sure your right.

Blackstone = HD

Whitestone = HD 2

[Touch HD General] RobbyTouchHD:
Yes the standart screen is really ugly but I´ll install spb mobile shell 3 on it first and than it´ll be a really nice device! ;-)
[Touch HD General] roblpm:
OK humour me......................

I used to have a hermes, I now have an HD, and however much I try I can't type on it!!!!!!!!

So I need a hardware keyboard.........................

I know the Touch Pro 2 is due out June. I think this is the Rhodium.

But what comes next after that with a HW keyboard??
[Touch HD General] leobox1:
to be honest, after using the X1 keybaord, i never believe in HW keyboard.. anymore...

it was horrible
[Touch HD General] leobox1:
btw if hd 2 is really 3.6 inch only, i feel it is a step back.. big screen is GOOD.

Ugly

Exactly agree with, hate it, very UGLY :eek: :mad:

Hi Guys,

Thought I would start a dedicated thread for sharing widgets we may develop for use with SPB MS 3.0 (now that its officially out!!!).

Here are some ideas for widgets that can be developed imo -

1. Flip Clock (like TF3D)

2. Slideshow widget

3. Media player widget (linking to other music apps such as Coreplayer)

4. Stocks widget

5. Calendar widget (linking to third party PIMs)

Please help!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fgth90:
spb ms3 widgets

Very good idea !

Hope that skinners will be at this "rendez-vous".
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] djsolidsnake86:
would be useful a widget for change activesync, mystorage, storage card connection (like wireless widget)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] abats:
Can these kind of widgets actually be made? I looked at the XML and supplied widgets of SPB, and they all seem to direct to classes in the compiled program.

Perhaps i'm missing something. What I really miss is tasks on your 'lifestyle' screen. I hope it can somehow be made, but atm I don't see how.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] talim81:
What I like to see is an SMS viewer like in TF3D. I don't like to open the MS Inbox every time, when I have a new message.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MasterOfDesasters:
I'd prefer a RSS widget. I don't get, why they haven't at least integrated SPB Insight...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] superflier:
I'd like to see a Post-it Notes type of widget. Also, it would be cool if you can change the swipe up/down function to open the launcher or contacts screen (or anything else). I have no use for the professional layout because I can basically re-create it in the lifestyle screen.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] @lfe:
A Flexmail widget is what i would like to see :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PauloJ5:
They dont have an intgration with SPD time - stop watch ??? Why not?

You can only get one day on the weather, even if you have SPD weather ?

I hate the bottom screen contacts and launcher stuff - total waste of screen space.

And why would you want to see all the available screens (bottom left buttom) ?

It looks nice, but I prefer their standalone softwear. Much more control and functionality.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] doomscythe:
I would like to have a memory indicator :D

anyone knows how t do it?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FloatingFatMan:
Well, maybe if you tried integrating with their own suite of SPB applications, instead of whatever this SPD stuff is, it might work better? ;)

I seem to have 4 days worth of weather forecasts perfectly fine, here...

Hello,

anybody found a way to increase the number of program shortcut icons which is by default 9?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Crazyrooster:
By default the number of shortcuts is 18. It only shows 9 but you can scroll up to see the other 9.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Deleted member 1198227:
Only this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=482763

You dont increase the number of programs in program tab, you ad another brogram tab with unlimited number of programs. (If you dont want to have 2 program tabs you can always hide the original). But to add or remove programs you have to do it with notepad from an xml file. I have both of them. Look the photo
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] poisonspider:
I have another problem with the program tab :-(!

I fill the 18 tabs with my favorite programs but then i got on the screen more than 18 tabs. The new tabs I cannot use for more programs, they only are there without a function.

How can I delete these (now maybe 5 more) tabs???

Thx!

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] wokkaman:
HTC made a big deal about 5 devices having BB Connect, but the Diamond2 which IMHO is the best looking device HTC has released has no BB Connect.

Has anyone got it working with other cabs?? I have tried several but the issue seems to be the WM6.1?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] wokkaman:
Am I the only one:confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] swissman:
I had a lot of problems with BB and my previous HD. Now I'm still waiting for my diamond 2 so I can't test... Have you tried with the 4.0.0.103? (you can find it here http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?entry_id=276 )
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] wokkaman:
Yeah, tried all sorts... always hard resetting be trying another to be on the safe side, sim is out of my BB and have got working on my TYYN2 before so no issues ion the plan side etc. Just the device:mad:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] dlui1:
I'm looking for a BB Connect solution as well.

The .103 cab installs fine for me, but it won't actually connect to the BB server.

Don't know if it's the app not working, or if it's my carrier.

I suspect my carrier only supports true BlackBerry phones, and not BB Connect, as I wasn't able to register my BB Connect PIN/IMEI on the config site. It will only register the other BlackBerrys I have.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Blob8me:
I've been through the cycle of trying to get the right bbconnect software to work with the right device every time HTC give us a new release.... there are various reasons why some versions do and do not work but often the solution is patience and waiting for the right software, but occasionally its just a matter of getting the most up to date version - This is the >>LINK<< to version 106 - HTC's latest sponsored version at the moment - it works perfectly on the Touch HD and so "may" work on the D2 - I would suggest a clean install rather than an "upgrade".....

Let us know how you get on? If it doesnt work we can look at other solutions such as registry tweaks and HKLM adjustments...

Good luck :rolleyes:

.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] wokkaman:
I tried the 106 on a "clean" install without luck... the device shows the dreaded pin pending!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] DaBountyHunter:
What exactly is BB Connect? I looked it up on google Blackberry services on non blackberry device? To use it I assume you'd have to be on a Blackberry contract?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] wokkaman:
BB Connect is software used with a number of Non BB devices, WM devices, Nokia Devices, all sorts.... I have used it over many years, but the challenge is always with a new device. And right now it does not want to work with the Topaz:mad:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] wokkaman:
spent last night hacking/tweaking but still no luck... come on HTC get it sorted!

[G1 Apps and Games] Proxin:
I've been pulling my hair out looking around for how exactly to have emails pushed to the G1. I have both K9 Email for Yahoo and the stock Gmail app for Gmail that I'm trying to get it pushed on.

How the hell do I get this working?? I see no options ANYWHERE to do it, but upon Googling it, everyone seems all happy and excited that it -can- push emails. But, NONE OF THESE PLACES EXPLAINS HOW! I don't care if they're glad it can or not, I want to know HOW to do it. Google themselves don't even mention it.

Can somebody please explain how to push emails before I lose my mind and possibly all my hair??

Thanks in advance
[G1 Apps and Games] bassbox:
what the hell are you talking about?

You automatically get all emails from the account you registered your g1 with pushed to your device if u did not manually disable it in settings. Via thhe mentioned G(oogle)Mail application!
[G1 Apps and Games] zeezee:
You can also use the suppiled email app that comes pre installed on the phone. Works with all the major emails except those from an exchange server.
[G1 Apps and Games] Proxin:
That mail isn't exactly pushed, from what I understand pushed emails to be. Pushed is immediately sending a notification once email is received, the one in Google mail and K-9 has timed when it checks the source email.
[G1 Apps and Games] bassbox:
Not even SMS are really PUSHED to your device. It is how it is. Use it and shut up.

How shall it technical work to push something to your device ? It is impossible .. The intervalls for sms/calls are just much shorter.. thats why mobiles drain so much battery even in standby.. and the intervall for gmail to check new emails is shorter than 1minute .. i dunno how much is it but it's near to instant
[G1 Apps and Games] Boeboe:
You do have an exchange account? POP3/web mail can't be pushed

yes they are...
[G1 Apps and Games] daveid:
The GMail client does not "check" the source email, it uses a proprietary version of IMAP IDLE (push) technology. It is indeed pushed to your phone, when "Sync" is enabled. However, K9 and the stock email app do not provide IMAP IDLE support at this time, so there is no way to set that up. K9 has it on the To-Do list. I don't know about you, but the instant my account that is set up with the Gmail client on the phone gets an email - my phone notifies me, sometimes it is faster then a desktop client. And, I assure you that it is not constantly sending out requests checking in for mail on the server, that would be poor coding on Google's part and waste a lot of their resources.

So, to answer your concerns directly.

The GMail client IS what is referred to as "Push" email.

The K9 and stock Email clients are currently not capable of "Push" email.
[G1 Apps and Games] daveid:
How about doing some reading before sticking your foot further into your throat.

IMAP IDLE - how it works.

It is very efficient.
[G1 Apps and Games] bassbox:
"This means that an active client will always be kept up to date. The IDLE command deals with the situation where the client has no more requests to make. The server responds to the idle command when there is a new message (or messages) which indicates to the client that there are new messages. "

as i said it .. the g1 "pings" the server all the time ..
[G1 Apps and Games] Boeboe:
You're still looking for a clue, almost getting there ;)

In case of push mail your phone does NOT poll for new mails: The mailserver will notify your phone when new mail is available. Yes your phone sends an idle command, but nothing happens after that: The connection is just left open and when there is new mail the server will send it.
[G1 Apps and Games] daveid:
I think you are grasping the concept, but the semantics are lost on you.

It works like this:

1. Client connects to server, does it's initial check-in, and handles new requests.

2. Client sends IDLE command to server, telling the server that it is still active, but not actively sending requests.

3. Client sits IDLE (no more data is transmitted from client to server unless an action takes place on the CLIENT requiring transmission - ie, an email is sent).

4. Server receives a new message.

5. Server sends a packet to the Client (knowing where it is located based on the open - yet IDLE connection).

6. Client responds to the packet and is subsequently transmitted the message.

See how many times I used the word IDLE - get the picture? As long as you know what IDLE means, you will understand how efficient this is. Here is a quote from that page I posted a link to:
[G1 Apps and Games] shaneaus:
Whoo HOO! Another GIRL on the forum! Go ZEE ZEE! And, she's CUTE, too!

Anyway, back to the subject at hand.

Proxin - I believe (although I could be wrong) what is going on is that you don't have the Gmail as your primary mail account - the one that everyone sends email to.

I only lately began to use Gmail. So, I have three email addresses that are set to forward to the Gmail account. The time it takes for these email to be forwarded and received by Gmail is the only lag I experience at all.

If you are using Gmail's "fetcher" feature to fetch email from other accounts... I have seen up to 30 minutes before each "fetch." So, it can take awhile. In which case I suggest that you go to any primary accounts that you have and set them to forward your email to your Google account and see if that decreases the delay.
[G1 Apps and Games] B-Eazy:
Touchdown by exchange is the best email push app on g1 currently. But its not free :(. if u wanna sync contacts u can do that during the trial period

I just got my g1 Monday and all my contacts were on a server and I was discouraged that I could sync google or my g1 contacts with the exchange server. I then tested every app in the marketplace i could find and couldn't get any to sync contacts except Touchdown.

ExchangeIt worked fine after I figured out how to use it. Most of the other apps only work for Microsoft Server 2007 so they weren't compatible.
[G1 Apps and Games] Henchman:
Touchdown rocks, and is worth the money.

Even the Exchange support in the upcoming cupcake is lame, as ig works with a lame email client.
[G1 General] MontAlbert:
or is it a combined effort?

just wondering if any of the other companies releasing android phones will also lock them down-?

i know the htc dream sold in oz is locked.... it would be good if it had a settings option to enable root, and included superuser....
[G1 General] jashsu:
Probably any other Android phone sold by a carrier will be locked out of root access. The reason is not difficult to understand. Look at the godawful mess of newbies in Dream development subforum that rooted and proceeded to f--k up their phones. Companies don't want their customer service departments to have to deal with that.
[G1 General] blackknightavalon:
As long as there are devs working on the Android OS, there's going to be a way to root the phones. Android is Google's open-source OS. Open source was why I chose the G1.
[G1 General] MontAlbert:
yeah, but surely they can make it safe so that getting root is basically the tick of a box along with a standard warning???

Guys I bought my htc blackstone from a guy here, and I don't know from where he brought it from.

Now there is a rom upgrade, and everytime I enter the serial number into the htc website to download the rom, a messages in red comes up saying the upgrade is not suitable for your device

can anyone tell how can I know from where this guy bought the phone

thanks
[Touch HD General] superste2201:
i think this means it is a branded htc touch HD and not sim-free so we would of got it on contract (orange if in uk). The htc website will only give you the upgrade file for sim free HD's not branded (orange or so on).
[Touch HD General] PeterGuru:
Not so ...

I have an OEM HTC Touch HD, not branded, no contract, sim free phone, and I get exactly the same message as hykhleif.

It all depends on where the unit was originally distributed. For example, if you're unit was supplied originally in Singapore, you CANNOT get any ROM upgrades from the HTC UK site. You have to get the upgrades from the Asian site that handles Singapore.

As far as determining from where the unit was originally supplied, I don't know if the serial number will give you that information.

[General Topics] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
nir36, in this sticky, explains that essentially it's better to buy a more expensive whatever when you know it will work and know that you're getting exactly what you paid for rather than buying uncertainly from unreputable dealers, only to get scammed and buy the more expensive on and the cheaper one.

So my advice, buy from somebody who doesn't have the words MEGA CHEAP SUPER DEVICEZ in it's domain name, or in this case, don't buy an unreasonably cheap device from a country that's known for its knockoffs.

Sometimes, the volume control stops working. I press on the hardkeys on the left side, but nothing happens.
