do you have the right time zone set?

If you do have the right timezone and it still changes, maybe your network time is off. Go to start, settings, phone and then the Time Zones tab on the bottom and uncheck "Automatic change time zone and clock."

Also sometimes when you sync your device with your pc it will set your device's time to you pc's time so check your pc time and time zone as well if it happens after you sync.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] k_aftab:
Thanks for the reply, I have unchecked "Automatic change time zone and clock" option but just to clarify the problem.

The time on the phone seems to stand still on random ocassions.

e.g. i normally set the alarm to wake up at 4:30 am everyday. The alram didn't go off today. When I suddenly woke up at 06:00 am and found the time on phone is 4:00 am . it felt good having 2 extra hours of sleep :D

It happened couple of times last year but this year so far 4 time already.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] fone_fanatic:
so is your time changing or getting stuck?

Is your entire device freezing or just your clock?

If its just your clock, i dont know what would be causing that. Try making sure all other programs are exited and/or do a soft reset before you go to bed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] k_aftab:
clock is getting stuck.

phone works fine no problem, have been doing soft resets and after that it works fine for a day or two.

i guess i need to do sme more poking around to try to fig out what is causing the clock to get stuck.

thanks any ways.

[Touch HD General] gevans35:
A UK company are now selling TomTom 7 software that is compatible with Touch HD.

http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/539/tomtom-navigator-7-software---map-of-western-europe

I wonder if this will solve the GPS dropout problems that I'm experiencing with my current version 7.915. The problem is that you have to buy a new map to get the latest software, I've already paid for the Europe map, so I looks like I'll have to buy the UK map and not use it to get the latest "compatible" software and knowing my luck it won't fix the dropouts anyway :(.
[Touch HD General] darrenmc168:
GPS Dropout

im using TomTom 7 and Igo8 on my HD and i dont have any GPS dropout, granted when it first aquires the lock it does flash locked/unlocked for about 10 - 15 seconds then thats it, its locked and stays locked, works best on igo8 though locks straight away and stays locked, and if im honest i think i prefer IGO8 even though i have graduated with tomtom 5,6, and now 7, but still nice to have both
[Touch HD General] gevans35:
Unfortunately, I'm having real trouble.

I've just disabled Quick GPS and deleted xtra.bin from the windows directory in case it's a corrupt ephemeris problem, I don't hold out too much hope though.
[Touch HD General] Matthes42:
who did say that it is a newer version than 7.915?

On my HD TomTom 7.915 is running very well.
[Touch HD General] gevans35:
I wish mine was and it's not for want of trying.

My last hope is that it's something to do with me being, currently, in the South of France. The problem got progressively worse as I drove south from UK. Perhaps it's something to do with the phone downloading a UK ephemeris which is no good in Southern Europe. Although it must be said that I did not have this problem with TomTom 6 on my previous two phones, Artemis and TyTnII.
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
I've had problems with tomtom on cooked roms, but having gone back to the last UK stock rom and tomtom 7.915 i have had no problems at all.
[Touch HD General] gevans35:
Can you let me know which rom you are currently using please and I'll give it a go.

The quick gps experiment didn't help, I just had three dropouts in forty minutes :(.
[Touch HD General] Matthes42:
Try to hardreset and reinstall tomtom. it´s running in generell and even with cooked roms (at least the well known wm6.1 roms i have tested)
[Touch HD General] gevans35:
Thanks, but I've tried hard resets and reinstallation of tomtom to no avail.

Roms I've tried are:

1.14.405.3

1.56.405.1

1.57.831.1

Dutty's 3.2XT

Dutty's 3.3XT

All exhibit the same problem with tomtom, ie random GPS dropouts. I think the only thing I can do is to buy the official release version that states compatibility, then I can get some tech support from tomtom and HTC.
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
The last standard UK rom from HTC is a 1.56 variant (you can download it from the HTC website with your HD serial number).

I had problems with tomtom when running versions 3 and 3.3 of dutty's roms, when either the program wouldn't start (it would just crash back to the today screen) or no satellites would be seen or the program would just freeze when navigating (used to happen a lot on 90 degree bends for some reason.

I suspect the cooked rom issues may be linked to memory usage, but i'm not sure.

I use tomtom a great deal (probably 20+ hours a week), so decided to go back to the stock rom and i've not had 1 single problem in the 2 weeks since.

You've probably covered this elsewhere in your thread, but it may be worth installing HDTweak and making sure that you've got AGPS switched off.

Good luck

Spudgun
[Touch HD General] laidbackfreak:
anyone know what the version is ?? 7.x or 8 ?? that's offically supported
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
As there isn't a navigator 8 yet, I would be absolutely shocked if it was anything but 7.x
[Touch HD General] laidbackfreak:
well thats what I figured but was always hopefull ;)
[Touch HD General] gevans35:
Thanks.

I'm using the same rom as you at the moment with no luck. Tried all permutations of agps/no agps using hdtweak and gps mode in registry, also tried another SD card. This is so annoying as I'm on a driving holiday in Europe. I've just downloaded Davideuck's WM6.5 rom and will try that, clutching at straws here.

The freezing you had with Dutty's roms sounds like the same problem I'm getting. It's completely random, can work fine for hours and can freeze twice in five minutes, mine seems worse in slow or stationary traffic, but it can happen anywhere and usually does it at the most inconvenient moment. If I exit and restart tomtom, it comes straight back. I suspect it's something to do with timing somewhere.
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
Which version of the maps are you using?

Where have you got tomtom installed (i've got it installed on the device)?

Which radio are you using? (i've found 1.13 to be the most reliable)
[Touch HD General] gevans35:
Western_Europe_1GB v825.2159

Device

1.13.25.24

WM6.5 rom now installed and running, just going for a drive to try it out. Not holding my breath though.
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
best of luck to you :-)

Do you do a 'clear storage' when you flash? just in case there is a bad settings file somewhere on your storage card?

I had a torrid time getting tomtom to work 100% reliably on a cooked rom, but have never had any problems on a stock rom, so this has effectively cured my 'flashing fever' and i'm happy to stick with what i've got now, especially as i had tomtom lockups all the time on a way to a wedding in central manchester a few weeks back that caused no end of grief in the car ;)
[Touch HD General] gevans35:
Arrrrrgggghhhhhh......

It did it again :(.

The only difference this time was that the navigator screen went grey and showed no satellites rather than pretend that nothing had happened and carry on showing motion albeit slowly leaving the road. It looks like it's the gps module switching itself off from time to time and requiring a restart. I seem to remember seeing something about a registry controlled timer, I'll look into that now.
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
What you describe above is exactly what happened to me when i was running one of dutty's roms. I would lose signal and it would wander off road before going round in a big circle and ending up at the point where it lost signal. I would also find that for some time afterwards i was unable to see any satellites in any GPS application.

I tried flagging it up on the forums here thinking it was an issue in the cooked rom, but I didn't get anywhere. Thankfully a stock HTC rom got everything as it should be and i navigated without any issue at all around the south east of england for 3 days (approx 18 hours of GPS time) last week and also made a couple of trips this weekend without issue.

Back to topic:

http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/539/tomtom-navigator-7-software---map-of-western-europe

So is this a legit TomTom Navigator 7 package for HTC Touch HD?

If so, great.

But I also need North America maps. Where would I be able to purchase those from, or would I need to buy them in the US? Is it then just as simple as loading the new maps onto a card?

anyone got some working instructions on how to do this? i know its possible, but i can't find anything on it.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] drewcam888:
First if verizon won't accept the esn or add it to there system then give up because it isn't going to happen.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] cerjam:
oh how i love cdma, but still thats not the problem.

its still using sprints radio and whatnot even after flashing it=
[Mogul, XV6800 General] drewcam888:
The radio has no bearing on the problem. Just install a custom rom with verizon carrier cab or install verizon rom. Also update to a current verizon prl. And change you epst settings. It would help if you had another verizon phone to copy the settings from.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] timm9:
FWIW, Upper "management" from my current (small) carrier told me that Verizon was now accepting devices that were not originally sold by Verizon.

[Mogul, XV6800 General] drewcam888:
You chances of getting one activated are slim. You have to find the right tech to add the esn to there dmd.

nueSpinLockPatcher is a tool to patch out the SWP containing procedures in HTC code – inside both drivers and the kernel. Its a tool designed for ROM cooks and developers – see the download page for links and information.

SWP is a deprecated opcode in armv6 that decreases performance due to the way it locks the bus.

1.1 includes more patching and bugfixes.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cyberdyne:
Am I right that this patcher will not work for a HTC Wizard as it has a Ti OMAP 850 wich supports only the ARMv5 instruction set?

I haven't cooked a patched ROM but I tried to use the patcher. It didn't find anything to patch in the OEMDrivers folder but patched some stuff in nk.exe s000.

Will this patched ROM work with my HTC Wizard?

Ok ive created a basic timer widget

Name in the market:

TimerWidget ( how original :D )

Location in the market:

Applications \ Productivity

Description in the market:

Always late for appointments or do you let your meals get burned while playing with your phone?

No more!... set the minutes and the modern looking hourglass will fill on your home screen and will alert you when the set timer is elapsed.

Cupcake 1.5 needed (do not open but add as a widget)

Alert sound will be added

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

If your a bit like me you will find it usefull.. im always using my phone and every now and then totally forget the oven or to leave for an appointment..

Alarm sound and editable timer text will be available soon.

Let me know what you think of it or if you have any useful ideas.
[G1 Apps and Games] rogro82:
Added alert sound/notification and also it will now wakeup when the phone is in sleep mode.

Allow alert modifications (ringtone/vibration)

Editable timer labels.

just a quick question does it use much memory just sitting on the desktop without a time running? I have used it a couple of times already and once i dragged it into the bin to get rid of it and yet when i opened task manager it said it was still running?
[G1 Apps and Games] rogro82:
It shouldnt use a lot of memory when no task is running... The actual alert isnt even depending on the widget but uses the AlarmManager to raise the actual alarm on the given time and it only updates the widgets state when a timer is set.

I will look into the task not being killed when the widget is deleted... It should end normally so ill see what keeps it from being killed.

Thanks for the info. :)

Hello!

I changed my Diamond into Touch HD, and have problem with HD Dialer in landscape mode.

If I using my navigation software (Automapa 5.5.1), and trying to call to someone during navigation, dialer switches whole display in portrait mode.

In my old Diamond there was no problem with that...

Boost the android emulator speed

Hi guys decide to show you how to run emulator without avd.

Ever since I downloaded the Android SDK I rarely use the AVD to run the Image.

I Just use the emulator with c++.

I noticed there are several emulators in the SDK which are:-

emulator-arm.exe

emulator.exe

emulator-x86.exe

They all use QEMU 0.10

To use the ARM IMAGES I use the code to launch the emulator with the specified skin, processor, and many other commands which are availble.

Be carefull with the commands especially the skins since they can cause it to be resented by the emulator.

To get the C++ source codes USE THE FOLLOWING link gist://gist.github.com/2894413.git

paste the link in your browser and replace the gist since I am a new member

note you can add more parameters e.g

-icount 4

which specifys the number of instruction per clock tick

compile with c++

Note any programming language would do even using the commandline would work.

I have attached copies of the source

If this has been helpfull reply to the thread!

Good luck!
