[G1 General] tindog13:
I'm wondering if anyone is working on improved voice dialing capabilities for the G1? I see in the 1.5 update that it says something about improved voice recognition, but I can't tell if that applies to the voice dial problem. That problem being that the way it is now, you have to touch the phone to place any call other than redial. Is this an android issue or a T-mobile issue?
[G1 General] tindog13:
Just a bump... really? Nothing?
[G1 General] JanetPanic:
Voice dialing on the G1, in my opinion, is still pants. I am using JF 1.5 and voice dialing works sometimes, but not enough that you can rely on it. Since it is in the 1.5 developers release I would have to say it is a Goggle, not carrier, problem.

- The voice recognition is spotty at best. "Call voice mail" Gave me voice mail as an option but I had to click on the screen to choose it. Worse yet the first choice in 1 out of 3 attempts was "call Oscar on Mobile".

- As far as I know you can not set up voice dial to start by hitting the call button on your BT headset. So you have to pull out the phone to initiate a call.

- Even if you could initiate a call via your headset Android does not give you any audio cues as to whom it decided you are trying to call. i.e. machine generated "call voicemail?" then you say yes to dial them.

On the other hand voice search capabilities did improve quite a bit and it is actually useful now. It is often easier for me to initiate a search by simply saying it then whipping out the keyboard.
[G1 General] tindog13:
Maybe I'm just not up on the lingo, but I'm not sure what "is still pants" means, unless it's a typo.

The voice recognition is okay, the times I've used it it hasn't made any mistakes, unless I'm trying in a very noisy area. For the numbers I call often, I find that putting a shortcut on the homescreen helps, but voice prompts are necessary and this should be addressed. If it is a google issue, do you have any thoughts on how to voice this issue to the proper place?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] romanr9999:
I got internet calling working on my WM61 but after some inactivity time 3G connection is dropped and the phone stops refreshing the SIP registration, so I start missing calls.

Is there a way to make sure the phone re registers periodically with the SIP server and also keeps the connection active even if the phone is idle????

Hello! I need help with changing the clock on my HTC Touch Diamond (VERIZON).

Okay, guys... I am SO frustrated I could absolutely SCREAM. :mad:

I've had the phone for a week, and I've spent hours, literally, trying to change the CLOCK appearance. It is currently ANALOG and has an atrocious purple background that I HATE.

Here's the main screen, so you can see what I mean:

I have installed some themes successfully, and everything changes but the clock! I can't get rid of that purple background, and can't change the style from Analog to FLIP, which is what I really want.

I have tried to install several clocks from the clock thread on this site, and followed the instructions to the letter - soft reset the phone and..... NOTHING. Still the same awful analog clock with the purple background.

I have also downloaded TF3D Config, hoping a new Theme will override the clock, but can't get any themes to appear in the drop down menu no matter what Path I choose (another massive source of frustration).

Sorry for the rant, but seriously, I'm about to throw this phone out the window. Part of the fun of having a phone like this is the customization features, and if I can't figure out how customize it, why bother? :(

I really hope someone can help with some detailed, step by step instructions or send me to a thread that has the answers. Believe me, I've literally spent hours searching this site and the rest of the web and can't find a specific answer. Maybe it's because Verizon's version hasn't been out for very long?

I'm definitely a newbie at this stuff, but I can read/follow instructions - so please, please help!!! (That's right - I'm begging! LOL...)

Sorry for the long post! Thanks so much for reading this and I hope to get some replies soon. :D

Did you ever get an answer for this, just got the touch diamond today and this is driving me nuts as well.

let me know

thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] supertrac:
You have to install nissedilligaf's sprint2flipclock (search the forum) and don't forget to soft reset. That nasty ugly purple background will be removed after soft reset, then you can install any clock you want. Find any flip clock or analog and just copy it to your windows folder on your device. Don't forget to thank nisse for his work.

Then, I'm afraid that is a carrier problem, maybe they have only a few antennas, so, poor signal :(

Hi D2 fans :)

I would like to addd some alarm tones and ring tones to my T2. I didn't find a thread yet that covers that.

My idea is to convert a mp3 file to wav and copy it to the ringtones folder or in the windows folder. But I am missing how to display the new tones in the D2 config menu.

any help or ideas appreciated :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mar'Cel:
If you want to use the build in Alarm I can't help u.

But u could use G-Alarm... it provides mp3-alarm files :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] franculito:
g-alarm

Thank's, but I don't like g-alarm.

I try always to minimize third party apps on the devices.

does it mean that the álarms are in the ROM?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnfp:
copy the file you want in the my documents directory and it will apear in the combo box so you can asign it to alarms
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angler:
No, this won't work. Default alarm only accept WAV file, no MP3 nor WMA file.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnfp:
if you read the first post, he already says that he converted the mp3 to wav wich is why i didn't mentioned it

cheers
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] franculito:
it does not work

:confused:

thanks, but it works only for ring tones and not for the alarm tones displayed in the alarm menu...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tnfp:
oops

sorry, this worked on the hermes.

on the topaz, i just tried to copy a wav file in the windows directory and it does works and apears on the list of available alarm ringtones.

cheers
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mark1962:
When you in active sync hit the explore tab, then within windows under folder options go to show hidden files hit ok or apply then back to active sync explore and you will find the windows folder drop you file in here, then you will be able to use your tone...

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] MrPenguin_2:
I was putting my Titan back down to stock so I could enable GPS (I had it working, but it stopped when I activated my Centro to get data back). Anyways, I forgot to unplug and plug back in the USB. Now no matter what I do It's telling me that the ROM Update utility has encountered communication errors with the device. I should also probably mention that I can still get to the boot loader itself. Any ideas?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drewcam888:
Flash via sd card method.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] MrPenguin_2:
How do I do that if I can't get to Windows Mobile to run the nueSPL executable?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drewcam888:
Maybe you should have done some reading before you got into this flashing.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanRecentHome
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] MrPenguin_2:
I actually did quite a bit of reading before flashing. My problem is that I didn't disconnect the USB cable like I should have when flashing back to the original boot loader. It stopped and now I'm stuck. I tried putting the bootloader the relocker tried to install on the SD card and named it TITAIMG, but it gets stuck at the gray screen saying "loading...". I tried the exitbl but it tells me that it can't find any sessions. I tried running the program again, but I wind up with communication errors. That's why I'm asking for help now, I've tried everything I've found to try...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] cac2us:
What carrier do you have? Did you run the "GetBackToStockXV6800"?

What radio, Bootloader are you running?

"I tried putting the bootloader the relocker tried to install" (PLEASE CLAIRIFY).
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] MrPenguin_2:
I think it may be working now. I went back to what drew said about using the SD and I tried the one file I hadn't tried. I had tried all of the .nbh files in the directory (stock radio and bootloader), but not the stock ROM itself. I had assumed that since the program quit halfway through flashing the bootloader hadn't installed properly. It would appear I was wrong. So, thanks for the help, Drew, and thanks for being so willing to help cac2us. :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] cac2us:
Your welcome,

Have you decided to go with a custom ROM, or are you ready to try PPC Kitchen (BuildOS)?

Keep in mind, if you flash a custom ROM with programs that you later want to update with newer versions, you may not be able to uninstall the original versions.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] MrPenguin_2:
I'm thinking I'll try PPC kitchen. My biggest problem now is deciding how badly I want windows mobile 6.5. I love the touch friendly GUI and the desktop version of IE, but I'm not able to run TVU or Pandora because they use more memory than I have available.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] cac2us:
I found that "ZOOM BROWSER" is quite a hog. And "Titanium" eats more than "SPB Mobile Shell 3".

And with "NueKernel", 6+mb. from the camera is just a soft reset away.

But I mainly load apps that I can't find a cab file for, so when an update comes out, I can just update without re-coocking the ROM.

Enjoy.
[General Topics] crapula512:
which manila alternatives r out there?

I'm aware of:

- PointUI

- Spb Mobile Shell

- ThrottleLauncher

another one that's worth to take a look?

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cles:
Hi I am a newbee in tis forum - yesterday i installed the CleanBlack2ReloadedOffice in german on my XDA Star - it worked perfectly ...

Today i wanted to upgrade the radio from Nike_Radio_1.58.16.27 to the better one Nike_Radio_1.58.21.23_25.65.30.04S_Modded.

Result: the flashing stopped with 99% an now i am stuck on this boot-screen and my phone is a brick :-( It says:

RUUNBH

NIKI300

SPL-1.16.0000

CPLD-4

I tried several things to get the phone alive - but nothing helped every trial failed with the grey screen and a 0% on it - some 5 Minutes later aborted with error. What can I do?

Thanks in advance to any helpful hint!!
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] 2alive:
tip

It seems that you have not installed hard spl first
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cles:
Hi 2alive - quite right. I copied the sspl-1.16-nike.exe on the device and started the Update. It stuck on 99% - ended with an error.

But now i am not able to install hard spl or anything else? I allways get the 0%-Load-Screen on the device and after 10 Minutes an 262-Error.

Is there hope to get this device running?

Any helpfull advices? Thanks in advance
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] lion_snake1:
Usually Device Boot Loader original can be updated using ROM Upgrade Official from HTC website. Just try it and hope it will restore your OS. When you are in Bootloader screen and connect to PC using USB Cable just run the ROM upgrade official setup and just click the status connected to ActiveSync (although you are not connected to ActiveSync coz you are already connected to USB) and go next and update, It still can upgrade the ROM.

FYI : Just Remember Original Bootloader can not upgrade Radio or ROM from Modded / Custom ROM setup thats why you need to install HardSpl to allow upgrade from Modded version.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cles:
Thank you lion _snake1 for your Tipp.

I tried now to load every shipped original rom - but the Rainbow-Start-Screen does not go away. Is there any other chance to get this device again working? Did anyone made experiences with this strange behavior?

I really would be glad, if there is a "howto" get into a working communication process between my "Pc" and my phone?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] lion_snake1:
Is the ROM Upgrade Official setup can run 100% and finish ?

If it can then maybe the problem is in your Bootloader.

Maybe you can go to forum section "xda-developers - General discussion - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking" and start the same thread since that section is special for Upgrade and Mod and i think some of experience people usually online there.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] cles:
hi lion_snake1

thank you for your advice - there i did not found any solution till now. I tried to load everything - but all originals or mods will stand on a grey screen with 0 % an dont move- then the error comes with 262. I already tried to boot via sd-micro-card - did not work - the device blinks a moment - as if it is searching fo rsomething and sticks again in the rainbow bottloader ....

i am looking for a step by step help for mismatched romupdates.... also with commando-lines-hacks....

Hello All,

I have just instlaled JustStable on my phone, and installed a couple of apps as well as the network wizard. I'm unable to figure out how to get MMS options. I can start a new message, but insert isn't an option. And when I try to send a picture directly from the image viewer, clicking send takes me directly to my email, no option to send as mms. I couldn't find any options in the settings area. :confused:

Any advice would be appreciated as I'm fairly new to installing ROMs and whatnot. Thanks!

[G1 Android Development] sfcdale:
I have flashed Haykuro new spl and his 6.0 build. :D

I was lucky i had the old phone and the new radio :o

and now we know that we can not reflash old radios with out risking bricking our phones.:eek:

I did not know that the radio had any thing to do with the spl.

(may be memory size and location)

My questions about the spl are this.

Was there a over site made / bugs with the old/new spls and radios?

When new radios come out, will we be risking bricking our phones by flashing them with this new spl installed?

With out Haykuro spl will we be increacing the chance of bricking our phones if we install new radios?

will the new spl be needed for all of Haykuro's new builds?
[G1 Android Development] froggg:
I have a fresh out of the box phone and the spl worked
[G1 Android Development] firestrife23:
I would like to know too! however it's difficult to say, we'll have to wait and see what happen when HTC roll out new radio in the future.

maybe haykuro can shed some light on this...

[G1 General] tanner2007:
I got a new G1 yesterday, Had to since that new SPL that bricked it, I had to get new one.

I rooted my phone, No problem, Installed JF 1.5 Build, No problem, Updated radio, No Problem, Installed theme, No problem. But if I do Apps 2 SD OR/AND cache (I have tried just cache and tried just apps on sd) but no matter if I do them alone or apart or only do one, each time same result, it loops on animation part of boot screen untill I wipe. On my old G1 I did these same steps a million times with no error, but this new one is being a *****

So you think reformatting my sd card might fix this?
[G1 General] robbie725:
I am not sure what you are saying as you stated "but and this is my problem, every time I do apps on sd or caches to sd it loops on boot screen and I have to wipe it, to get back then it works fine"

then you state "yes sd card works fine and ext2 partition" so I am assuming that you are stuck at the andriod sceen and it just keeps rebooting... this happened to me just last week Ihad my phone in the front pocket of my hoodie and forgot it was there as I pulled the hoodie up over my head to get it off the phone fell to the ground I have one of those clear plastic covers but i picked it up and it looked fine, so I powered down just to let it reboot and I had the android looping screen... I reflashed jf1.5 and it worked went to do the apps to sd... loops... so I just reformatted my SD and re-partitioned it and it has been working great ever since even got the B@lls to update to the new SPL... but I would try that reformat, re-partition... hope it works out for you!
[G1 General] tanner2007:
Sorry, What I meant to really say is that I rooted my phone, No problem, Installed JF 1.5 Build, No problem, Updated radio, No Problem, Installed theme, No problem. But if I do Apps 2 SD OR/AND cache (I have tried just cache and tried just apps on sd) but no matter if I do them alone or apart or only do one, each time same result, it loops on animation part of boot screen untill I wipe.

So you think reformatting my sd card might fix this?
[G1 General] robbie725:
Hey Tanner... Damn what did you really mean to say... LOL Just Kidding... all I can say Tanner is that doing that worked for me it got rid of the booting "andriod" and stopped it from bootloop... what can it hurt... just save everything on your SD card... if you have the Ubuntu CD you can even save you ext2 stuff if you need to... i have only used Ubuntu CD to partition my SD card so i can't comment on the other software that others have used... its worth a shot...

peace
[G1 General] tanner2007:
Well I copyed both folders

app and app-private in ubuntu partition and reformatted SD card and my phone, re rooted it and put JF 1.5 build

and it wont work, the problem with the boot is fixed, phone boots but apps on sd wont work and this has never not worked before

the app folders are empty on phone and when i link them then they full but none will install or show up on phone even tho they say no phone memory left but properties says there 50 mb internal memory

so wtf, is it the phone or sd card? note before I got this new g1, the old one did all of this maybe 30 times without failure but this new phone is just....
[G1 General] robbie725:
Tanner i am not an expert... but you partitioned your SD into EXT2 and FAT32 correct you did the FAT32 partition 1st? and the EXT2 does not exceed 450mb correct...

Open up your terminal emulator (if you don't have it, go to the market and get it!)...

$ su (at this point, allow superuser access when the whitelist asks)

# cd /data

# ls -l (the l is a lower case L)

here is what the output should look like.

If your apps are going to SD, you will see the line app -> /system/sd/app as well as a line for app-private also...
[G1 General] tanner2007:
The phone sdcard still works, and it does show system/sd on the thing,

but some reason wont let me do apps on sd

when i do the commands via adb

it removes current ones and i link to the one son sd card

but once phone reboots no apps are installed yet internal memory says 55 mb left but yet when i access the phone in data/app all apps are there and yet i cant download anyone it says not enough space

so whats up?
[G1 General] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Sounds like a broken partition to me. Have you tried an adb logcat of what happens when your phone loops? It'll at least give the error and give us a starting point at figuring out what's going on.
[G1 General] tanner2007:
Well its not looping anymore (well only done apps not cache yet)

but for some reaosn just wont work the apps get moved onto phone but noit installed and memory says theres 55mb free of space but market says space is full its like is linking but cant tell the diffrence nor install

its wierd and all thanks to a new phone that came with rc33
[General Accessories] Nishant:
Hey People,

I had recently brought htc touch hd and simply loved it but i had been putting the same in my pocket without the cover leading to many scratches on the top touch screen. I am looking for a replacement but i really dont know, do i need to change the housing or is it the digitizer or the face plate..i am confused..

With my limited searching skills, if i look for housing, it shows the external body but not sure if its includes the top glass that is scratched. If i look for digitizer, it is the complete touch screen mechanism..does this need to be changed or their is the top glass/film which comes on top of this.. or is it called faceplate.. it would be real helpful if some can give me the link to this top glass/cover or film whatever it is called..

P.S :- My touch screen works absolutely fine and so is the display.
[General Accessories] arampatla:
Have you searched on ebay, i always get all my PDA parts there...;)
[General Accessories] Nishant:
As above

i know where to get them but i don't which part is it? Digitizer or Faceplate or Housing?
[General Accessories] p0peye:
Hi,

I broke my screen glass and the touch-screen (digitizer?) works just fine, as well as the LCD panel.

I would like to (try to) replace the glass, but I am in a kind of the same dilema as you.

I think the digitizer is touch-receiver + GLASS (not just the thin film).

Can you (or anyone else) confirm this?

Thanks,

cheers,

Nenad
[General Accessories] mancsoulja:
The part you want is the digitizer, that the part you touch with your stylus, the lcd screen sits underneath this, they are glued together and are hard to seperate, buying just the digitizer can lead to many problems, its better to buy an lcd screen and digitizer allready together then just replace the whole thing :)
