[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] anewbie:
I flashed the rom in Chinhe wm 6.5F 21501.zip. In order to connect to ActiveSync on my PC in the past, I always needed to run PC-USB (or maybe "PC to USB") and disable the option of Advanced Network Option (or thing like that, I don't quite remember). Anyway, I looked all over, there is no PC-USB in this ROM. Now, I'm stuck. Can talk to PC, can't sync or anything. :( Please help!

Many thanks in advance!!!

One idea:

Have you disabled your firewall BEFORE connecting your PDA to your PC?

Cheers,

hoja67
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] anewbie:
Yes, firewall, VPN client, all disabled. That has not been a problem in the past. I have flashed 15-20 different ROMs before. "PC to USB" has always been in the Settings. Never had a problem like this ...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] anewbie:
Never mind

Never mind, I flashed another ROM with the MicroSD card, it's got the USB to PC setting, disabled "faster data synchronization". Worked like charm. Like I said, I'd flashed 15-20 ROMs before, never had one that did not include the USB to PC setting. And this is what it takes to fix many users' ActiveSync problem. Thanks!

Hey all you pro chefs! I cooked an HTC SNAP based ROM for the HTC Cavalier. All went well and everything seems to work great except Bluetooth. I have tried SOOOOO many things such as:

- Swap SYS\Bluetooth folders

- Swap SYS\Bth* folders

- Swap OEM\OEMDRIVERS bt* files and modules

- Swap SYS\OS\btdrt.dll module with working one

- Played with provxml files and RGU edits

Bluetooth STILL won't turn on!!!?? Does anyone have experience on what the BT stack EXACTLY needs to turn on? Maybe a DLL isn't registering correctly? I've hit a wall and have no clue what to try next.

Another weird symptom is when I swap the btdrt.dll file/module in SYS\OS from one that worked in a different build, Comm Manager doesn't start and says it's "Not a Valid Windows CE Application"

Any help will be appreciated!! :confused:

thanks for the reply

i realized that its very hard to click that with your fingers.........have to use the stylus....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC Touch Freak:
Should be able to click it with no problem with your thumb.... or finger..... I used to do it on my elfin and I have big thumbs. Never once have I pulled the stylus out.

anywho you should get a list that pops up with the availale baords. That one would be.... "Phone Keypad"..... I think that some ROM versions do not have it though. So you may or may not.

I have just instaled new media panel. with new panel menager and now panel doesn't see any photo on xperia or on storage card. and see mp3 as he wants. I have perfect maded mp3 tags and any time I will put this same album and erase and put again and erase panel media see it diffrently each time...

I have just instaled the new panel menager, active something, and this new panel media...nothing has changed.

I was trying to check up for new ROM but SUSe dosn't start anything when i connect the phone.

[XPERIA X1 General] Seafal:
hmm weird. My Panel manager works fine. have you also installed ActiveX Deployment and new Panel Manager?

My media panel just has a funny but annoying bug (don't know how to call it other than that). After each song it plays the first 1-2 seconds of that same song again before it switches to the next one >.<
[XPERIA X1 General] eljon:
Yes I did like it is in instruction. first active-x, then new panel menager, and on the end new panel media...and big ****...
[XPERIA X1 General] eljon:
on my xperia its a total mistake...panel menager has colapsed after two times of changing panel. it stoped to respond and start to hold up my phone
[XPERIA X1 General] wazaaappp:
yes it just flashes isn't it?
[XPERIA X1 General] eljon:
after two days I see much more bugs then on beggining.

mediapanel is really often freezing my phone. when not freeze the phone, freeze new choosed panel...only back to today screen helps.

and when I back to xperia panel messegin icon is not showing new messages...

and last one - switching to the next truck when listening music is taking about 3-4 sec !!!! is this windows 3.1?? :)

please someone will erase this sh*t

i have a blackstone and within some hours i installed a lot of programs, butthe battery life decreased extremly. so i cleared the memory an had a new blackstone again, now it is ok, but i´d like to have a new rom to be up to date.

there are now some questions

1) where do i find for example an explanation of the rom changes or differences?

2) is there a rom, which saves the enery?

3) there is a program called nueDynamicClock. malheuereussement it is not anymore available. i got an old one called the 1.00 version, but not anymore the 1.3. the homepage is not opened. is it good? cause i used the old one and i don´t know, if it was the reason, why the batterie life decreased. i always nearly hav put the less cpu usage possible.

i would be very happy to get some news, of this fantastic forum.

Is it possible to get horizontal car cradle?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] Mar'Cel:
It's just an idea... but couldn't u easily rotate nearly any cradle 90° ? ;)

Joking apart I had an easy "fit for all" standart car cradle for my HTC Touch (2 years ago). There u were able to turn the part holding your device 90 degree to the left and right(the part fixed at the windows was unaffected).

Bought at pearl.de a german reseller.

You will need a ProClip mounting plate as well, all the ProClips is specific for each car make and model.

Hello all,

I need to code a simple application for send SMS from PC using PDA connected with ActiveSync.

- I don't need gui. DOS is enough

- I can code using Visual Studio 2005/2008 (.net features)

- Executable will be called by another application so I need to pass it Recipiend Number and text, like => sms.exe 1234567890 "SMS TEXT"

Could someone help me? I'm totally stuck since I've no idea how interface application with ActiveSync and then how to send SMS!!!!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] l3v5y:
If you want to program it yourself, check out RAPI on MSDN.

Also, to send an SMS, you can either use MAPI, or just launch tmail with parameters. See here for details on the latter.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Minister:
I do that too. It's a great free app
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Lord Spectre:
Thanks all,

but let me explain better my goal.

I don't need a GUI application and I don't need PDA application, since I need to start it from PC then send SMS trough PDA connected to activesync, like:

PC => ACTIVESYNC => PDA

On PC I'll execute this dos application based, passing parameter like recipient number and message text like:

sms.exe 123456789 "TEXT"

That's it!

l3v5y thanks for your hint, but I'm still search for code example, since I'm new on this programming technique.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] l3v5y:
Once I've fixed my XP installation, I'll get to it...

There's an exe somewhere called prun.exe, that would allow you to run tmail.exe via command line parameters on your desktop... So you could have a batch file with:

prun.exe \Windows\tmail.exe -transport "SMS" -to %1 -body %2

and launch it with whatever parameters you wanted.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Lord Spectre:
Thanks l3v5y, prun was a great application, but unfortunately it doesn't work.

Let me explain my test, first of all there's no necessary to specify \Windows directory, just using:

prun.exe tmail.exe

and then message screen popup on my phone.

Also I tried to run other program from desktop like "Slide To Unlock" and TomTom Navigator. GREAT! They work both!

Next step was try to going directly to SMS inbox:

tmail.exe -transport "SMS"

Sh*t! It doesn't work! And for sure other parameters doesn't work too...

Like: prun.exe tmail.exe -transport "SMS" -to "1234567890" -body "TEST SMS"

I tried with HTC Trinity and HTC Diamond....

UPDATE:

I tried multiple line commands, like:

prun.exe tmail.exe <= works (show me message window)

tmail.exe -transport "SMS" <= works (show me SMS service. I used also -service with same result)

Then stop here, following command doesn't work:

prun.exe tmail.exe -transport "SMS" -to "1234567890" -body "TEST SMS"

prun.exe tmail.exe -transport "SMS" -to ""

prun.exe tmail.exe -to ""

and other combinations........

Do you have tips form me??? :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Lord Spectre:
No one? :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] avellant:
try parameter -service "SMS" instead of -transport. It only opens new message with recipient and message body, but you have to tap send button to actually send it.

Edit. you can use sendsms.exe (have to be copied on the device) from smsSender to direct sending. it uses following parameters: sendsms.exe "recipient phone number" "message" [deliveryReport]

eg. sendsms.exe "12345678" "Test message!" true
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Lord Spectre:
Thanks a million avellant,

finally I can manage (automatically) SMS from my application (running on my desktop)...

But let me explain just one more issue, when I use:

prun.exe \sendsms.exe 1234567890 "TEST SMS" false

I receive SMS

, but only with following text: "TEST"

Seem it truncate the rest!

Do you have solution?

And for sure... THANKS for CODE.... You know.... ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] v5HMeca:
I'm guessing that prune.exe accepts only two parameters with the first one being the application you want to run, and the second one being optional parameters to run with that application.

Untested, but try this:

prun.exe "\Windows\tmail.exe" "-transport ""SMS"" -to ""1234567890"" -body ""TEST SMS"""

prun.exe "\sendsms.exe" "1234567890 ""Test SMS"" false"

Or perhaps try nesting each argument in quotes.

prun.exe "\Windows\tmail.exe" """-transport """"SMS"""""" ""-to """"1234567890"""""" ""-body """"TEST SMS"""""""

prun.exe "\sendsms.exe" """1234567890"" """"Test SMS"""" ""false"""

In a command terminal (and in good ol' DOS), the escape character was a carat.

prun.exe "\Windows\tmail.exe" "-transport ^"SMS^" -to ^"1234567890^" -body ^"TEST SMS^""

prun.exe "\sendsms.exe" "1234567890 ^"Test SMS^" false"

On that note, maybe prun.exe will behave properly without quotes around the entire set of parameters.

prun.exe "\Windows\tmail.exe" -transport ^"SMS^" -to ^"1234567890^" -body ^"TEST SMS^"

prun.exe "\sendsms.exe" 1234567890 ^"Test SMS^" false

Give those a whirl. Hopefully one of them works.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] v5HMeca:
I just tested those. Looks like my initial idea was the correct one.

This worked for me just fine:

prun.exe "\sendsms.exe" "1234567890 ""Test SMS"" false"

:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Lord Spectre:
You are absolutely right, prune.exe accepts only two parameters, now it works!!!

This forum rocks and users' skill are awesome!!! :eek:

Very very thanks to all !!! You save me! ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Lord Spectre:
BTW, if I can ask... :o

Using tmail.exe I can always send SMS, but I need to press "Send" button on PDA.

Is it possible to Send SMS with tmail.exe and without press any button on PDA?

Hi to all who have dust between the touch screen digitizer and LCD.

I send my device 3 times to the authorised HTC service center because of this problem, they cleaned it (not perfectly) and the dust was back again after few days of use. This was really ennoying for me... :mad:

After several disassemblies, cleaning, research where dust comes in, then assembles I found the flaw.

The dust doesn’t come in via sealing foam between the touch screen digitizer and LCD.

There is a bump defect of phone housing around the volume keys. Inside of the plastic housing is a metal frame, where the touch screen digitizer is stacked on - that frame is a little bended and the touch screen doesn’t stick properly on it (around the volume keys only). When you look close on the phone you can see also a little wider gap between the touch screen top glass and silver plastic housing edge. (See picture)

WARNING

The following directions WILL VOID

your warranty - you are performing

this repair at your own risk.

So, now, what you have to do:

For those, who have already dust in, just simply disassembly your device (if you are brave enough, have all tools and precise hands - maybe some experience :eek:) and remove PROPERLY all dirt with brush, compressed air and antistatic cloth, then assemble it back or send the device to the service center to clean it (wont void the warranty). Before sealing your TD2 (keep it in plastic bag away from dust) prepare a sharp wooden toothpick, neutral transparent or black silicone (you can purchase it from any building material shop) and cotton cloth.

Now you have to clean the gap between whole plastic silver housing frame and touch screen top glass with soft brush. Then use sharp wooden toothpick to impress the silicone into the gap (all gaps you can see, just in case) (silicone does not damage phone housing and TSCR surface and it’s easy to clean), then just gently and properly wipe off all the rest of silicone from phone surface. (be careful not to get silicone to the keys or phone receiver slot)

Leave the phone for several hours to get silicone dry.

Then you can use your TD2 in dusty environment and your display stays absolutely clean and dusty free. (TESTED on mine, for me perfect phone now and I am very happy with it...)

For those who have a little dust in and want to stop come more in and those who are planning to buy TD2 (dont wanna play the lottery faulty or not :D), do the same procedure (silicone impress only) after unwrapping your device from plastic package.

;)GOOD LUCK!!! ENJOY YOUR ABSOLUTELY DUSTY FREE DEVICE!!!;)

Sorry for my English :o
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] s1rl4ncel0t:
I don't know about you guys, but I'm not crazy enough to void the warranty of my phone because of a minor thing like that. When mine gets dirty, I send it back and that's it.

If it gets dirty again, I send it back again...

But, it's a good tutorial for the "brave ones" anyway :) Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

HastaSSSS
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] bishbosh:
I sent mine back over a week ago due to this dust problem (in fact I delivered it in person to HTC repair center in Milton Keynes) hoping for a quick turnaround.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] georgeono:
from the picture, for the second gap, apply the protective foil that comes with the phone. Should solve a bit the problem. Ber in mind that after apply, the touchscreen will not have the same sensitivity. You'll have to tap a little bit harder ...

I thought these dust under the screen issues had been fixed long ago, but now it seems the problem that affected my old c600 has come back to ruin my topaz after just 1 week.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] supreme_one333:
I already use a screen protector. I'm more concerned about the first gap. I really don't want dust to happen since I bought my phone second hand and it doesn't have a warrenty.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] georgeono:
you can always use a can of pressurized air to get the dust out. (same you use with PCs)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] supreme_one333:
Wouldn't you need two holes that are connected if your blowing air into the device? One for the air to go in and one for the dust to go out? I don't have any dust under my screen currently and would like it to remain that way. The silicon method doesn't seem to difficult or dangerous which is why I'm interested in what silicon to use.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] georgeono:
from what I understood (from the pictures in the 1st post), it's not actually a hole, but a free space = gap.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] axantas:
I opened the D2 (only the two upper screws - for lifting the inner part a bit) and did have a look for "gaps" somewhere around the volume controls - i did not really see a gap :confused:

But for getting out the dust: dont blow air into the D2 but get the air out - i actually used a vacuum-cleaner. If you remove the two screws it is possible to lift the LCD below the volume sliders *A LITTLE BIT* (=about 0,5 mm only!!!!!) with a small screw driver to create a gap. It worked quite well. (be aware of high air flow and possible static electricity)

But i really would like to know, where exactly to apply some supplementary sealing to get rid of the dust-problem. Any detailed pic would be appreciated.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] supreme_one333:
Yeah Me too!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] pedroo:
OK, people, just put some neutral silicone between (in the gap) silver plastic frame and touch screen (there is just 0,2 -0,5 mm gap, almost invisible) and you wont get any dust under the touch screen. This is the best solution, you could do it from inside, but its much more complicated...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] supreme_one333:
What exactly is neutral silicone? Do you have a picture of it so I know what to buy?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] luca T:
I'm about to buy the TD2,

is it so big problem this dust under the screen?

Does it happen often?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] supreme_one333:
I've had it for about a week and the user I bought it from had it supposedly for about 3 weeks and so far no dust. I'm still terrified its going to happen though.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] axantas:
Thanks for the pic, pedroo - so they simply should have glued the digitizer surface a bit more careful to the housing...

...thinking a bit about applying the radical solution - not sure yet :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] pedroo:
Just an example:
