[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rb14:
I too have a stiff one. Yes, the tilt. And when I tilt it back again it has a click. I think the phone feels strong and well-made. I'm already happy with it.

Gutted that I screwed up putting the screen protector on.

<starts searching for new screen protector>
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] evojulz:
lol, you'll just have to play with it for a bit...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] galaxys:
LOL, that's too funny! Sounds like a viagra commercial :eek:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dazultra2000:
The left-hand plastic managed to get tangled up in the slide mechanism this morning. Was a bit of a mission to get it out but I'm just gonna get rid of that bit. Will leave the right side on for the time being.

Incidentally, the screen protector in the box is very soft and gets marked really easily!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] quarintus:
If you remove one, I would remove the other one too. Otherwise on side of the screen will experience more friction, what can't be good for the ballance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rb14:
I knew you lot would get all double entendrey with that post. For the record, I've been playing with it lots all over the weekend and it's not got any softer. Still nice and firm.

Don't. Just don't.

Make sure to check your wifi settings. It can be set to always on also. Wireless controls > menu > advanced and make sure it is not set to never.
[G1 General] MrMind10:
Thanks everyone, I will try all these suggestions and see what happens. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] soki10000:

Many thx to your both! :D

Here my first question:

My screen shows only "SPL 1.33.0000" is that right? I believe not :confused:. I tried to re flash it but i couldn't do that cause of the 1 license/person "prevention".
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Grats on the release! but why no release party? :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] cmonex:
nah, the license won't be a problem, if you only have 1 device, did you run the Hard-SPL package at all? any errors?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] aussie1234:
Got it and it worked

Its like making a fancy dinner, so many hours spent designing it, planning it, preparing then 'cooking' it. Only to be eaten in 5 minutes. :rolleyes:

HardSPL installed seamlessly and now I can flash on my D2. :D

Thanks guys/gals.

I have left you a small donation for your hard work.

If anyone is kind enough to help with some information? From a debian shell just type 'sudo iwconfig', 'sudo iwconfig tiwlan0 mode monitor' and then 'sudo iwconfig' (without quotes), and please let me know the output and which version do you have.

Thanks in advance, and hope we could get this done soon :)

This app used to be perfect, it did anything and everything. Now with the latest update I cant turn on/off bluetooth at certain times and setting the GPS location is way more confusing.

while we are asking questions about locale,

is there a way to make my settings revert back to the way they were before arriving at a certain location?

To all my fellow developers...

I am a fairly experienced Java developer and have worked on Web Applications for quite some time now. But I would like to start getting involved in creating some of the awsome software found on this forum (and others as well). What IDE do you guys use to code for the .netcf using C#? I know Visual Stuido is out there but costs a boat-load. Can anyone recommend a freeware/cheaper solution?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] algorhythm:
Can't you get Visual Studio 2008 C# edition free for private use?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bismillizeko:
SharpDevelop
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anikolop:
No the free edition of Visual Studio does not support the windows mobile sdk. Only the paid versions.

You could try SharDevelop that is free and has support for mobile devices.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] shad0w77:
Thanks for the responses guys. I will try them out over the weekend. But keep them coming!! ;)

If you are a high school or college student, you could register for Dreamspark and download all of the Microsoft Pro Dev apps for free. I downloaded Visual Studio 2005 Pro, Visual Studio 2008 Pro, and Expression Studio 2.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MoritzN:
And if you're not a student, but run a business, or code for money ;), you can get BizSpark for free:

http://www.microsoft.com/BizSpark/
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stephj:
You can get an academic version of Visual Studio, but you will have to provide proof of student status. It is identical to VS Professional, so it can target the Windows Mobile platform. It is around a third of the professional price, hence the need for proof of entitlement by your school/college etc.
[G1 General] Dreddge:
So, I have been trying desperately to persuade my wife to move over to an Android OS. She currently has an LG Incite and LOVES the touchscreen. It drives me crazy! She says she hates the touchscreen on my G1 (because she has longer fingernails), she like to use them to touch the screen with. What are the chances of Android OS being on something with a resistive touchscreen? I saw the new HTC Lancaster, but I can't seem to find out what type of touchsreen it has. I just wanted to get from my fellow android fans!

It drives me crazy that she wont move to a capacative...they are soooo nice!
[G1 General] chrisrj28:
Yeah I agree resistive touch screens suck unless you are using your nail or stylus. As far as Android it is designed for Capacative screens so no luck there
[G1 General] cal3thousand:
Tell her to use her knuckle
[G1 General] Dreddge:

[G1 General] CBowley:
Haha that made me laugh so friggin hard.

My fiance is the sme way, she can't figure it out.
[G1 General] cutekidd:
I've seen a prototype of a Lancaster, and it sports a resistive screen. Since it's a prototype, can't guarantee if they use the same screen on production products.
[G1 General] mikedmeyer:
Why do you both need to use the same phone os?
[G1 General] xxvtcxx:
Because you know your chick really loves you if she's willing to change her OS for you.

I just hope one day I'll find that special girl who will accompany me in using OS/2 Warp.
[G1 General] lbcoder:
I don't think you'll ever find ANYBODY willing to go that far... :D
[G1 General] Dreddge:
So she will leave my G1 ALONE! Shes always messing with apps, and downloading new apps. Then I tell her to buy her own, and she starts *****ing about the touchscreen. "I don't want one, I don't like your touchscreen. I just wanna play with yours."

She says she likes the phone, and the UI, just not the touchscreen. I pray that the Lancaster has a resistive touchscreen.

[G1 General] Dreddge:
That phone has potential, but the fake Bravia logo makes them look like a cheap wannabe. The phone looks nice enough though. That will be one to follow.

Its very hard to find alot of info on this phone, or this brand. Thanks for the info though, Ill keep my eye on that one.

From what I understand that company manufactures phones for other big brands. Maybe thats why you don't really hear much about them.

[Touch HD General] jim256:
You don't have to read this, you can just vote.

Ok, we have all heard about OS 3.0.

Faster, multi - tasking, A2DP, other bluetooth improvements such as file transfer, MMS, video capture, onboard video editing software included, etc..

The new iPhone to be released end of June is also going to have a few hardware changes. Have heard that it is 16 to 32 gb, that there is a 5mp autofocus camera with a quality lens on back, and a 3mp on the front (compared to our VGA), thinner (of course, pretty much a guarantee), possible bigger and sharper screen, etc...

It seems to me as if Apple has really (unlike MS) done what a company should...analyze the competition (primarily Android but also webOS and RIM), and redesign and improve their product accordingly. They have gotten rid of pretty muh all of the stupid annoyances, made it faster and smaller, and given developers much more access to different system level things for their apps, along with about a million other changes and improvements that you can and probably have read about. I am also really thinking that they will have good integration with things such as facebook, gmail, and outlook.

I really think there will be no question and that it truly will be the #1 device really without any competition. The only competition I can see is maybe something such as the HTC Magic that is thinner, has a larger, higher res screen, and comes stock with unbranded Android 1.5 (such as some of the HTC line up we have seen).

I just DESPERATELY hope that Apple isn't so stupid and naiive as to not put on MORE BUTTONS! Buttons are always better...always having to quit what you're doing and go back to the home screen to do ANYTHING would drive me insane...I love texting on my HD, then pulling up the phone and calling someone, sticking it on speaker, then going back to texting...that's not too much to ask I don't think.

So vote!

As for what I'm doing. I am jumping ship to the new iPhone. If I find it doesn't satisfy me, I will sell it and get the best Android handset I can find. Hopefully something like the Magic, but thinner, having a bigger, more high res screen, and comes stock with unbranded Android 1.5. If no new non - keyboard Anroid handsets are out by that time...Magic it is! (if it is ever released)
[Touch HD General] mike21pr:
im gonna have to see the official specs and the actual device before i decide anything,if what is mentioned is true then perhaps. but im looking more at the Palm Pre than the iPhone, we will see
[Touch HD General] dazza9075:
Ok, firstly MS is doing something about it, they are working on two new OSs at the moment, secondly its not MS that makes the phone, this is the problem and the holy grail with WM phones, firstly its a problem because MS has no say what hardware is used with its OS, this means like its desktop cousin it needs to support many things well and i believe to an extent it achieves this, but it doesnt excel at any of them. Its the holy grail because with the Iphone, you get 1 phone, 1 set of gear, 1 design for every possible usage, with WM devices you get exactly what you want because you have the choice to choose different phones, different specs and design for your needs.

Im leaving out Android here for 1 reason, it sucks, no no hear me out, apple has a HUGH following with its iPods which translate in to potential iPhone sales, android has a "bunch of Hippies" style of following, they are not classy, they are not even that good but its an alternative to the evil of Microsoft and ties of Apple which makes then appeal to others and thats fair enough, its a market as good as any.

But here is the reason ill be sticking with my Microsoft Windows Mobile based PDA, it works, it works fairly quick, it looks as good as an iPhone and i can install pretty much anything i want on it. Weres Tomtom for android or the Iphone? where is memory Map? where is the ease of use when syncing with Outlook? wheres Igo8? core player? world card mobile? the various language programs? all my security and tracking programs, the million and 1 apps available on the net, free or paid that have a propper support base if it all goes wrong, data retrivel?

some of those i use every day, i use many others every day, and yes there may be alternatives for some, but unless i can get them ALL working on one of the other two devices ill not change because i need them all and thats as simple as it gets.

With a desktop OS you can dual boot or virtual PC it, an thats fine if thats your thng, but you cant do that at the moment on the PDA and even if you could i doubt i would because its a hassle i can do without, WM works and works well enough and im sure its only going to get better.
[Touch HD General] MrYdude:
And what will be the screen resolution of new iPhone?

Current iPhone is a no go for me - with such low screen resolution reading eBooks and surfing the internet is really, really bad.
[Touch HD General] pop91:
Waiting eagerly for the new iPhone so definitely jumping ship...

I've got a Mac and syncing is nearly impossible. I've tried all sort of apps but none worked perfectly. I really need to sync address book and calendar and I've had enough of transferring mp3 files one by one, artwork not working etc etc.

the mp3 function is very important for me and the iPhone is perfect for that.

only problem I've got is I don't like the iPhone's current design. It's so 2 years ago. Hopefully they'll come up with a nice sleek design.

Why are Windows Mobile Apps falling behind IPhone ones?

One of the things that has always interest me when making such a decision is: What do developers think? How do they view developing for iPhone versus for winmo platform?

To gain insight into the thinking of developers, including some rather big names in winmo application development, you guys might want to read these extremely interesting threads:

http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/ed...s-mobile-apps-falling-behind-iphone-ones.html

and

http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=6481405#post6481405
[Touch HD General] jim256:
1. We all know MS is doing something about it. But we also all know that virtually all MS products suck. We also all know that MS is SLOOOW...therefore (like I said), by the time winmo 7 is released, it will already be behind. It will be released around 3rd quarter 2010...that's ridiculous. Another year from now Android will no longer be so new, and Apple will have put out something entirely new as they know ppl will be getting tired of iPhone by then. Not to mention what RIM and Nokia will be doing.

2. Where is the basis that Android sucks? It is faster than WM, that much is for sure. It is also more customizable. It is more modern. 3rd party app support does not make an OS good or bad....your argument that they suck cuz they don't have apps is no good to me. Sure it can make or break the success of the OS but...that's got nothing to do with the OS itself. Android has a LOT on WM and WM has...virtually nothing on Android. It looks ancient, it runs ancient, and it's that simple. I think we can all agree on that last line there.

3. "android has a "bunch of Hippies" style of following, they are not classy, they are not even that good"

- Gotta admit that you really lost me there.

4. Windows Mobile is in fact rather slow, even on good hardware with good drivers.

5. Windows Mobile crashes all the time even fresh after a hard reset, no apps installed, on an official ROM (just like the desktop Windows!)

6. iPhone has better syncing solutions that ActiveSync and Outlook.

7. Just FYI to all reading this...I am a Windows user and have been for years (all my life). I am not an outsider looking in and criticizing Windows w/o due reason and experience. I recently installed OSX86 on my PC however and...it truly is really nice. MS sucks. Bottom line, and there is really no avoiding it.

8. All OS's have pro's and cons. There are just as many if not more arguments against all your arguments for Windows Mobile. My point is simply that the new iPhone truly is a lot better than any Windows Mobile device running the latest WM 6.5.

No kidding. Couldn't agree more. Coming from a Touch HD and having looked at a lot of friends iPhones...their screens look terrible when reading text (altho they do have 16 million colors compared to our 65,000. Side note: Android also has 16 million colors).

Sadly though I have read that they plan not to change the resolution in order to keep all apps usable. I reallly hope not.
[Touch HD General] Georgeous2008:
It's true, MS does not have any influence on the phone hardware.

However, an operating system's success is not about hardware potential or software potential or about a combination of both: it's about a tangible offer of potentially attractive software which can be easily obtained via a single entry point, i.e. an APP STORE. That's currently the BIGGEST drawback of the WM platform. I love the customization part of WM but it took me ages to get there. Many users won't take that road and therefore go for the iphone.

There's also a lock-in effect to this -> More users to an OS platform means that developing for that platform gets attractive, thus attracting developers and making the apps offer even more powerful. That in turn increases the chances of attracting new users to the platform, etc.

Honestly, considering all this, do you really a 50 megapixel camera or a nVidia Geforce 8800 GTX in your phone ?? What about all the already hidden potential in your phones which never gets explored because developers and users do not get a realistic chance to discover all of its limitations ?
[Touch HD General] Svegetto:
I'm pretty sure that the new iPhone does not support multi-tasking, you're still stuck to doing one thing at a time. I believe Apples official unofficial stand on it is that they spent way too much time and money on their failed push notifications, and they're not going to allow multi-tasking. (Apple does not like to say it's wrong...and if they would release multi-tasking, I'm sure they'll call it something else, and put a patent on it for no reason).
[Touch HD General] iori:
You know what...

I just love the WM and WM based devices.

They have ALL i need

They are fully customizable and have fully multitasking support.

With iPhone, you will get what it is, and you will get stucked with iTunes and online store

Many iPhone apps (though looks amazing) are not so usable

I just need functionality much more then a great user interface

Peace all:)
