Hell! finally I found someone with the same problems. But I have bought it just some days ago!! The only thing I have done since then: installing tomtom on my sd-card and setting this gps-signal thing to the value 3000.

when I bought it i tried to run it in the store: after turning on, black screen but still vibration when i pressed some button, so it must have been on. Then it suddenly worked, installed the system, everything perfect. yesterday i installed tomtom, today it probably "died" around 20 times. everything the same like already described, screen messed up, after turning on vibration after 30 seconds, god!

is there anything i can do? i just bought that thing
[Touch HD General] forumx:
Sounds like you have the exact same problem as my HD: inverted screen, screen blank but still functioning etc...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=520781

I am waiting for mine to happen more frequently before sending it away for service. Otherwise they will just return it if they can't reproduce the problem.

Pretty sure it is a hardware problem. I am in Australia and have the original stock ROM.
[Touch HD General] jamesmclean:
We may be onto a new fault here. Just noticed 2 more threads with the same screen issues. My phone has been OK for a few days, but today screen won`t wake up at all. Hooked it up to Pocket Controller Pro and it`s reporting a "microp version mismatch 0" in its dark state. Been checking on other websites and this seems to have been a problem with Touch Diamond previously. There doesn`t seem to be an update for microp firmware. One user tracked it down to a loose connection between screen and motherboard. I don`t know! I just wish it would work!

Any suggestions for MICROP issue?

Currently running Dutty 3.4 with 1.56 Olinex. But this has been a problem long before this ROM version.

Fallen Spartan told me this:

"Have you tried going to Start > Settings > All Settings > System > Power > Advanced and making sure device isn't set to turn off after a period of time?"

Until now my phone works without problems, I will report again after some days
[Touch HD General] jamesmclean:
Yup, tried that one. Doesn`t work. You will notice after you end a call, the screen will be dim. This is the warning of imminent backlight failure. It is not power management dependent. My problems with the phone started in Feb. Initially intermittent. Now constantly.

Sometimes the thing will work for a few days for no reason. Only way to guarantee no failure is permanent USB power. Pull out the USB and watch it die, instantly! That`s with the original or the new battery.

New motherboard may be the only solution. But it is worth noting that when I had problems with my Hermes and it had to go back to HTC 3 times, each time a new phone was sent. On the service report "New motherboard" was reported. The guy in the T-mobile shop told me they`re too expensive to repair so it`s easier giving you a new one. They still hold onto the old one for 3 weeks though!

Might try to repair the Touch HD, I still have my Samsung SGH. (It`s very slow!) but I think I will wait for ASUS or Toshiba phones with snapdragon processors. Had enough of HTC and don`t want another iphone.
[Touch HD General] Digital Outcast:
This is a hardware issue. No if's, and's or but's. It is caused by a disconnection between the screen and the motherboard. A faulty motherboard or a loose / broken connector is the usual culprit. I would say 7 out of 10 times it is due to a loose connector. It is a poor design to begin with and after being dropped or roughed up enough it tends to break or get loose. HTC typically just replaces the motherboard in a warranty repair situation.

If you are lucky and just have a loose connector and are comfortable with opening up the device yourself, you can disassemble the device and re-connect or re-solder the 2 port connector that connects the motherboard with the screen. Of course this will "void" your warranty so I wouldn't recommend doing this unless you are comfortable working on micro-electronics. If your case is the type where it is intermittent and it works sometimes and then sometimes not, then you have a loose connection and it just needs to be reconnected or re-soldered.

I have seen and fixed a couple of these now.
[Touch HD General] -db-:
So does this mean if the problem is a loose/broken connector they just put in a new motherboard (what then will not fix the problem) or are they also aware of the connector problem?
[Touch HD General] Digital Outcast:
As I don't work for HTC I can't say whether they know about it or not, but I do know from experience that they typically just replace the motherboards because it is faster and cheaper than paying a technician to repair one.
[Touch HD General] -db-:
Ok here comes my report about the settings Fallen Spartan told me. Actually in the beginning it worked better than before. But there are still problems:

When you get a call which you miss, phone gets out of standby and in automatically->screen will remain black next time you need it

When it was connected to a USB- or power cable the next time you set it to standby->screen will reamin black

I had it on the co-driver's seat (I don't have an attachment yet) and it has fallen to the ground->screen remained black and now it happens again more often

So to the hell I don't get it anymore, somehow it seems to be a hardware fault and somehow it seems to be a software fault :confused:

Anyway I will send it in and hope they can fix it :mad:
[Touch HD General] jamesmclean:
Just thought I would update on the final result of my phones problems. Some good news, some bad. Well HTC have repaired it for free! It took 3 weeks but it`s done. The screen is working and everything is wonderful! This is very kind of them as I actually bought the thing on eBAY from an original Orange customer. As I told you before I live in Thailand, but I had to come back to England for a few weeks. So I took it to Carphone Warehouse, was very vague about it`s origins. They took it, sent it to HTC and now I have it back! FIXED!

Another good thing was, I had a stock copy of my Original Orange ROM and was able to get the thing back to factory state before returning it to HTC. So didn`t have to pay for carriage or told to "go away" horrible Dutty ROM user.

It is worth knowing that the warranty on a Eurozone supplied Touch HD is 12 months irrespective of the number of previous owners. So anyone who like me who bought it from ebay as an unwanted upgrade still has warrnaty. Don`t try it if you`ve dropped it or you can`t get it back to factory ROMS. They will charge you BIG BUCKS!

Always remember that under EU law, any goods must be suitable for the purpose for which they were intended for at least 12 months after they were supplied and in some cases longer. The Touch HD has only been available for 9 months. So you don`t need a receipt, just go get some warranty! And with the number of Touch HDs with this screen fault, you`re going to need it!

Unfortunately it`s come back SIM LOCKED! Any kind person want to unlock it for me?

Ho hum....
[Touch HD General] Digital Outcast:
Wow they really SIM locked it? LAME! Unfortunately I don't know of any free SIM unlockers for the Blackstone. OliPro does it for like $15 which isn't bad at all. Here is a link if you want to look at it.

Tellme

There is a youtube video of guy using the Tellme software on his Samsung Omnia. GRRR so when can I get my copy and it sounds free? I guess I'll have to wait for the official website to e-mail me when the product is released. It's a shame that it seems windows mobile is always a day late and dollar short. I guess as a loyal customer I'm used to the wait. Especially since there is Zune HD confusion and wait time. Which sucks kind of since I just bought a 120 gig zune. BOOO yet again...

Is Tellme available for Windows Mobile phones?

Tellme is currently available only on the Samsung Intrepid Windows Mobile phone. Sign up to receive a message when your phone becomes supported

How do I get Tellme on a Samsung Intrepid?

Tellme comes preinstalled on Sprint's Samsung Intrepid. Simply launch the Tellme application from the desktop or press the dedicated speech key on your keyboard and follow the instructions on the screen.

So, unless we got the cab from Samsung, we won't have it soon.

Cyberon?

Probably a little bit of topic but did you see a new Cyberon voice commander?

It is now avaliable as a separate program in several languages, and Cyberon claims that it works with WM 6.5.

Unfortunately costs 20$, but 30 days demo is fully functional.

I’m using it couple days on a standard SE 6.1 and it works great. With JETware Hands-free Extension installed it even works with Bluetooth headset (calls can be initiated with the headset button).

Tried to install the TEllme app on a 6.5 X1.. No dice.. looks like it installs but then program disappears. Anybody have luck with this?
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] mkouk:
try go to Program Files\Tell me it usually extracts all the files there and you can start it manually
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] HansZimmer:
the same with me, start program, nothing happens on HTC HD :(
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] die_Leuchte:
did you try to search the install folder manually should be sth. like:

program files\Tellme\

try to search for "TellmeLauncher.exe" if you find the the install folder just double click the TellmeLauncher.exe.

Btw. for all who didn't know like me, you have to copy the installer to your pda and start it there. The installer launches on both the Windows PC as well as on the pda but on the Windows PC the installation brakes up at 72% with an error. So Simply copy the installer to your PDA and start it there and see it will install (at least unter WM 6.5, no luck on my Touch HD under 6.1 so far).
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] HansZimmer:
yes, of course. I tried to start it there, it starts for half a second and quits again :(

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Jasand:
Yes as above:

Only works on WM6.5

you need to install microsoft voice command

you need also to install tell me

The program works now but to be honest is crap at trying to understand me and takes forever to recognise what I have said.

After 20 times of saying "text Dan" it worked twice and then it would not recognise what I wanted to text.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] extrem23:
Yes, I had same problem before and I found a solution from another forum.

It seems that TellMe required MS Voice Control to be installed to work.

1. Uninstall the TellMe

2. Install MS Voice Control 1.6

3. Install the Tellme again.

It works on my xperia (Win 6.5).

Hey, just found this thread. Voice command came with my phone, and I esp. like how it can interact with media player. Can't seem to see anything on the TellMe site, so to those of you who have it working, does it interface with media player?
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Aafi-rocks:
Hi guys,

here is the cab..

I tried installing on my Omnia i8000.. getting error for version compatibility..

Give it a shot.. lets see if it works on other phones..

I'll try the .exe file from ppcgeeks on Omnia i8000 lets see if it works.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] extrem23:
It's not able to interact with media player at the moment.

It's still quite primitive for me, what it basically does:

1. Call contact (home/mobile)

2. Text someone, translate your voice into text and type in for you (this is nice)

Other than that, any command that cannot be recognized will bring up the default browser and present you the Bing's search result.

Guys,

Looking through this thread, it is becoming increasingly hard to find the latest builds from our favorite chefs; JesusFreke/Haykuro/TheDude.

Could I put forward a suggestion that we create some Sub-Forums, moderated by said chefs, for there builds/news/related questions. This might make it easier to find the info we need.

Just a quick suggestion, wondered what we all thought.
[G1 General] Mikey:
Asked that from the admin and the simple answer is no =(

if you'd like you can create a thread, if you are willing to keep it updated, list all the cookers and their rom versions.

So to your question sub-forums will not be created, sorry.
[G1 General] N3xt2N0N3:
Well no to sub-forums but why can't moderator like yourself make the Threads of new roms into sticky threads so they're always on top.
[G1 General] demontefixo:
I posted a link to a list but a Mod deleted it. Not sure if it was because of general housekeeping or if it was because the list was on a google dev site.

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Barmaglot:
I ran my X1i with stock ROM for a few months after purchase, and I liked the bundled SPB panel a great deal - never used any other panel, actually. However, the phone would get pretty slow, especially with stuff running in background (FortiClient, Opera, etc). Last weekend I decided to flash to a custom ROM - looked around this forum for a while and decided that Gen.II Light is probably the best fit. HardSPL'ed the phone and flashed the ROM without issues, bought SPB Communication Pack, got everything set up, and then ran into several problems, main one being that SMS stopped working. I can see new SMS notifications, but they don't show up in Outlook. Other issues include YouTube videos being unwatchable (framerate is about one per 3 seconds), and included HTC-branded Opera not being able to zoom out.

So, I'm looking for a ROM with the following characteristics:

1) Light and barebone. Specifically, no panels (don't need them), and no TouchFLO (don't like it, going to use SPB shell anyway)

2) WinMo 6.1. Would love to go 6.5, but the Hebrew MUI that I have (Eyron) doesn't support 6.5 yet. However, if there is Hebrew support for 6.5 somewhere (I don't need Hebrew interface, just ability to read Hebrew messages/appointments and type in Hebrew) I can consider it.

3) Working text messaging and video drivers.

Does such a beast exist?

Hey all,

I am a UK vodafone customer, using an ADP G1. I currently use the JF 1.5 ADP build, and I am mostly happy with it, apart from a few things.

What I would like to do, is take the ZIP of the build and remove/tweak a few things where possible. As an example, change the dial string to be UK, add a few of my favorite apps/widgets, remove any apps I don't use etc. Nothing major.

Is it simple to do this, as I have read a lot about signing stuff and I am honestly quite confused. I am not stupid when it comes to software, but I just cant find a single resource of information to help me do what I want to do.

Could anyone offer some advice on how to go about the above, and if its easy enough then maybe we could sticky it.

Sorry if I am asking an FAQ - I did search and couldn't find anything helpful.

I'm interested in this too, but I'd base mine on the european holiday phone build which I'm currently running unmodified
[G1 Android Development] knaries2000:
if you unpack the update.zip you can change whatever you like. Then all you need to do is to zip it backup and sign it with instructions in this post.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=443713&page=21

I don't know what dial string you are refering to so I don't know about that. If you want to change specific things in the apps or appearance, then it can get complicated, you'll need to open up the apk file and use an hex editor to figure out what you want to change and change it. This is of course not so easily because most of the values that you want to change is in binary so just figuring out what string is store where is not simple.
[G1 Android Development] billc.cn:
signing is just to make sure the update.zip is not modified by a third party. we have to sign because the program that does the update verifies the signiture.

but unless you want to publish your builds, it's not necessary to modify the update.zip. just remount the system partition after the flash and do whatever changes you like.

i am afraid you have to get the source code for the phone app if you want to change the number format, but a simpler alternative is to use similar files from other builds. (there are plenty of posts explaining this.)

if you want to modify some resources (e.g. icons) of the an app, it's easy enough to do. just change the .apk extension to .zip and update the files using some archiever. but changing the UI or program function usually requires you to obtain the source code.
[G1 Android Development] n0ahg:
The phone number format contains '-' in america but not in europe. The nearest we have to the adp firmware in europe is the holiday firmware where the dailer has the correct format.

What I really want to do is add back in root so I can setup my work wifi. I think I should be able to do it so I may have a go this weekend.
