Hello, I experiencing problem with Pocket Outlook and MS Outlook 2007 synchronization. Problem is that appointments which has recurrence set to 1 year like birthdays, anniversaries ... are correctly transferred from PC -> PDA (when edited by MS Outlook 2007), but when I made some modification to such appointments in PDA with Pocket Outlook (for example changing reminder time, name, ...) then after next synchronization when changes from PDA -> PC were sent the 1 year recurrence is changed to 12 years!!! And the worst and most frustrating thing is that when I synchronizing between two PCs then all appointments with such settings are changed from 1 year to 12 years!!!. Maybe it should be 12 months I'm not sure. I'm using Windows XP with Outlook 2007 and ActiveSync 4.5. Is there some problem with configuration or it's a bug? Strange thing is that this problem is related only to yearly recurrences (at daily,weekly and monthly recurrences there is no problem).

I test it also after clean boot of my device and the problem still persist. I also have a chance to make a test with HP device where is WM6.1 but with the same behavior as WM5.0. So I think that this is a bug inside the Pocket Outlook or ActiveSync with handling yearly recurrences. Can somebody clarify it? Is it possible to get a fix for this?

Thanks for quick response.

Do you still have the problem after you uninstalled IGO8, because it can cause your phone to change the time according to your IGO8 settings everytime you launch IGO8.

Do you know how to see Settings item in Titanium plugin in WM 6.5 build 21725 for Herald ?

I can see the Settings item in Chrome editor but its not in plugin.

Please help.
[Wing, P4350 General] raptoro07:
Cannot do it without Chrome editor. Usually when installing plugins into titanium, or making changes, you have to disable titanium.

Start>Settings>Today>Items>tick off Windows Defualt then hit OK.

Next, install plugin or making edit in Chrome editor, then restart titanium by going back and ticking on Windows default and hit ok.

This will restart titanium and should update and changes to it.
[Wing, P4350 General] marek1:

Yes, I know that I have to disable plugin after every change with Chrome editor. Yes, I have chrome editor but anyway after change the settings panel is not inside titanium plugin. What do I have to do now ?

i've the same problem in my polaris, how to resolved it?
[Wing, P4350 General] Dr.Gonz0:
Yea... chrome editor don't like me. I'll disable titanium and make some changes using the editor. Lets say I remove windoze media player... after re-enabling I find myself with a very very laggy fone where it don't matter if I disable titanium, it'll crawl to a literal stand still anyways. Only solution is to re-flash and not tinker with it.

Been wanting to decypher this program ever since I started toying with wm 6.5

I atleast lucked out with the success with adding in premade packages like ccom and clauncher.

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] harra:
been on the forum for a few weeks since getting a raphael and never realised what fun i could have!!!! had htc devices for years from a vario through to artemis and nike, all on t-mobile uk and never knew all this could be done.

anyway - thanks to all you developers and chefs - tried loads of roms and still trying to learn.

the questions i have are as follows - and yes, I have searched for these answers and have further comments on this below

i love the interface from my mda touch plus / nike, where i swipe up and down to activate menu. i believe this is touchFLO (original)??

is there a simple ROM that incorporates this for my gsm raphael? I haven;t taken to touchflo 3d at all and likewise wm6.5 interface.

also, my gps keeps dropping out when using igo 8 - i get the impression this is common but can't find any info on a rom that is good for gps use which is probably the most important aspect of what rom i finally stick with.

finally, fom a noobs perspective, i've read many threads requesting advice on roms, simple, basic roms etc and these threads are closed and / or banned. Let me assure you, the amount of information on here and diversity of roms, it is extremely hard to try and assess what roms to try, what they will give etc especially if you're relatively new to the forum and don't know the style or history of a chef. many of these rom threads are so large, it would take months to read through and assess the different roms and the one you may be trying to find may be many pages down as it has received no recent comments.

is there a summary page that could be sticky'd or made? what i mean by this is a very simple summary page that a chef could update with a few simple words regarding th latest development of the rom.

eg.

<rom name> - <release date> - <style> - <state of development comments>

wm6.5 - released 20 may 09 - loaded, TF3D, applications bias - new release, some bugs to be ironed out

wm6.1 - released jun 08 - vanilla,simple rom, manilla - fully developed and stable, good for gps issues

from this summary, people woulld have an idea what rom may be suitable for them without extensive searching.

as the rom progressed, the state of development comment could be changed but everything else would essentially remain the same. unless I'm missing something, i think that this would stop a lot of questions and new threads requesting advice as it is really difficult to keep track of roms and development on here. anyone such as myself, unfamiliar with all the roms finds it very frustrating when threads are closed and comments are made from those with more knowledge of the forum that are far from constructive. it would be quicker for some just to suggest a rom rather than ***** on about the lack of knowledge the person requesting the information has.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] B4PJS:
Good point, well made, read my sig ;)

On the GPS issue you need to go to the radio thread sticky (start on the last page and work backwards, that is after you have read the first post explaining what is what)

Maybe you could volunteer to put together a WIKI page that people could then update (I know as a Chef myself I am generally trying to keep track of bug reports and dont have much time to put anything else together).

My Rom (B4PJS AYCEv2 Fully Loaded)

wm6.5 - releases most days (when the missus doesnt moan at me) - TF3D2/Titanium, any apps I can get my hands on - generally in permanent beta but stable and fast(ish)

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Black C5:
@ harra et all

The reality is that flashing is so simple (after HardSPL is done) that the only thing that has to be conquered is the fear of flashing. If you flash from your SD card (which is the simplest and the safest) you could flash many ROMs everyday and decide for yourself what works best with your device, service provider / location and personal preferences in apps and usage. No one knows what is best for you except you. My very first post on this forum was a new thread asking the same question and the response was just as you described, but there was one piece of advice that made sense to me, ‘keep trying new ROMs until you find one you like’ (and then the thread was locked).

The list that hilaireg posted is a great place to start, or you could simply start at the top of the ROM Development page and pick the latest post or pick the one with the most hits etc… You can tell in a few minutes if you like it enough to work with it for a while. If you like it, follow the thread and share your findings with the other users of that ROM. It is fun and helps the chef to perfect his creation based on your discoveries. That is part of the fun we are having here @ XDA. Soon you will be answering questions that others are asking as your expertise grows… :)

BTW: It is best to have a dedicated 1gb SD card for flashing. I can speak from experience…

[Touch 3G General] matt47:
:mad:

Gday all.. Think I have received a clone of a HTC T3232 from ebay, its even in HTC covers, how bad's that! (dispute in progress).

It does not respond to the HTC reset method (volume down & enter while switched off, and the small reset button at same time) so I can only presume its a clone.

Anyway the main problem is screen calibration, its out by miles, I cant even use the slide bar down the right hand side of screen.. I have done the calibration about 20 times via display settings and it does not help, the best reset I can do is via the clear memory tab in settings, that didnt fix it either.. Im not sure what its issue is, cant even figure out what sort of phone these "ripoff merchants" have sent me..

:mad:

Any help would be much appreciated & thanks for reading my post
[Touch 3G General] welshbloke70:
I think (and I could be wrong) that its volume down and enter then the power button for the touch 3g.
[Touch 3G General] matt47:
yes I tried that to, doesnt seem to work.. this is why im wondering if this thing is a HTY or something similar to a HTC, in HTC covers.. quite a letdown ..

the digitizer is miles out of wack .. is there a chance this is a rom issue or would the touch pad its self be shot ?
[Touch 3G General] Nirak:
I've read somewhere about a clone having a different brand processor, check your system information:

start -> settings -> hardware

The real thing has the qualcomm 7225
[Touch 3G General] DaM79:
Try to download an official rom update from the htc website. You will have to enter the serial-number of your device. If they deliver the download to your pc, you can be pretty sure it is not a fake one...
[Touch 3G General] jaxouk:
Is it not vol+ vol- and the power button all at the same time for hard reset?
[Touch 3G General] matt47:
Ok thanks guys, getting somewhere but its not all good, it has a Marvell pxa300 624MHZ CPU

one of the first things I tried a few days ago was updates from the HTC site, and it did NOT accept my serial number, so I think its a clone for sure. so my question is, will origional HTC software work on this clone if I download it from this site, OR will it not work because of the different processor ?

Should I even bother flashing the ROM as the opsys seems to be working fine, just the digitizer is out by miles, I ran DigItest last night and the screen was not always responding in the correct spot, correct maybe 50% of the time and the other 50% of the time it was miles out. almost NOnresponsive around the edges of the digitizer.

The seller I got it from also sells digitizers for this model lol.. I have to wonder if he didnt try to repair this phone from new, maybe a factory second or something ..

So guys whatya think?, flash rom, or grab a new digitizer from the 3bay ?
[Touch 3G General] catsado:
You got a clone for sure. But if you have buy it for less money i think its obvious its a clone. I got a clone too but i'm very happy with mine. No hardware issues for now, only some hard resets. I think you cant put a original ROM on a clone or can you? Btw in the phone info if for the model you got T3238 then you can be 101% sure its a clone :)

P.S. Btw the clone dont have build in GPS.
[Touch 3G General] matt47:
ok, yeah its t3238.. im prety sure it has inbuilt gps, they a$$ured me it did, but anthings possible im yet to test it coz the digitizer screens annoying me to much, dont want to even attempt to try and use it until I fix it.

Dont think the HTC rom works but im not 100% sure, im not used to these phones & there ways yet, still pretty much learning !
[Touch 3G General] DaM79:
well, did you buy a clone or did you buy the real tough 3g? what did the presentation look like? i mean if the presentation lied to you, you did not pay money for the clone but for the real thing. then you might be able to redo the contract with the seller... maybe... good luck!

found the clone!

well...
[Touch 3G General] matt47:
ahh its a spitting image of a HTC, its in HTC covers, with HTC written all over it, apart from one spot I found inside the rear cover its clearly marked HTY.

The seller I used on 3bay told me it was a HTC not a clone, his discription was very deceiving. The phone turned up in a HTC box, with a HTC disc & HTC instructions, batterys and all other accessories INCLUDING THE BOX lol are all origional HTC products, apart from the phone its self! .. the phones a cheap ripoff - in a HTC box. go figure..

Still wondering if it needs a digitizer or the rom flashed..
[Touch 3G General] jiga man:
I've also recently received a 3238 model which i believe to be cloned. It's in Chinese and i want to flash it to English but am unable to perform a HardSpl. If i hold down volume and press the on button i just get a screen that says ''USB update mode'' nothing happens if i try to run v4.1. If i try to run a new ROM i get error [206] unable to connect. Anyone have any ideas on how to get an English ROM onto it? Any advice would be much appreciated!
[Touch 3G General] matt47:
thers a seller on ebay that has the english rom for them, but he wont share :mad:

otherwise i dunno, HTC need to sue them

he did tell me its "over 60mb" .. i couldnt find it, getting really sick of the site of chinese to english translations! lol..

.. im going to buy a case of bourbon - stuff this phone, I hate it :mad:

.. LOL !!

IT WASNT MENT TO BE THIS WAY
[Touch 3G General] DaM79:
So! There is the fact! He did not give you what you have bought! He did not fullfil the contract! Give him a deadline to send you a proper HTC Touch 3G, afterwards cancel the contract, get the money back and get a proper one by amazon or some other good store.

Next time when buying a clone, do it directly here http://www.china-phone.org/ or check here for nice clones http://www.clonedinchina.com/.
[Touch 3G General] Cannes:

I'm glad I read this thread. I'm looking for a Jade, saw a T3232 that was a good price on ebay, then spotted it had dual sim :eek:
[Touch 3G General] matt47:
HI 79, there is no contract I bought it outright, a damaged claim is in progress so effectively this phone wont cost me anything :) , hopefully :confused: Now i just have to save the phone from the bin !!!

DUAL SIM ? .. This clone does nOt have dual sim, its exactly the same layout as a HTC 3G .. very hard to pick from a HTC inless you have seen a HTC before, you wouldnt really spot the difference..

I think mine may have a faulty digitizer, Not the Rom.. Whos with me on that ?.. As the digitizers not to expensive and the jobs not that hard, im thinking of giving it a go, could be easier than trying to find the rom ?..

U guys/gals think its worth a try or should I wait until the roms up and try that first ?
[Touch 3G General] matt47:
I cant even get to that screen with that method so im wondering if either your clones different to mine, OR maybe yours is a proper one ?.

Does it have HTY in small letters on the inside of the the back cover by any chance ?
[Touch 3G General] jiga man:
It doesn't say HTY anywhere on the phone but if i run my finger over the HTC part of the lettering on the battery it is slightly raised, seems they've craftily painted over the original lettering. I've compared the phone to a real one and it is slightly bigger in size. The phone actually works really well, don't have any issues with it, just want to get it into English!!
[Touch 3G General] CarlinT:
I just went on ebay to check the prices on the Jade. The ones that are $200 are obviously clones. The real ones are atleast 350+. I was able to get mine for 320 with the 8% from live checkout
[Touch 3G General] Classpro:
Headphone converter

I don't think so stefansjs. Both of the devices have more than 5 pins, and are made for HTC/Dopod phones. I think it may be that the clones require a deeper connector - the connector for the headphones that came with it are deeper and plug further into the jack than the converters. Here is what I bought:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1Y5SRTP9EE0B7A9MSW9A

T3238 Wifi fixed

Finally fixed WIFI issue (low signal, disconnections, no data), default registry power mode was set at 3.

This needs to be 0.

HKLM\Comm\UFMP1\Parms\PowerMobileMode 0

I also tried the t4242 WM6.5 ROM which had the same issue for me (everything else works great including camera), so perhaps this key will fix wifi there too.

Ive also boosted the wifi signal by using tin foil (wifi antenna is the one above the camera at the top of the phone).

Hope this is useful for others. ^^

Hey guys, I'm interested in buying one of these, but before I purchase I need to clear up a few things.

Is the IMEI unique? I know in Australia that certain chinese IMEI's are being banned. If it is not unique/banned, would it be possible to flash the IMEI?

Also, is there a 3.5mm headphone adapter the phone? Does it take extusb or miniusb?

Trying to flash HTC clone

Hello people!

I have a HTC clone, actually this one (bought from this store too):

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.25045

Well, I am trying to use the SMART.UPR method to flash it with a WM6.5 ROM. I can get to the update screen, using the steps kindly offered by the members in this thread. The screen has a "TF_card Update" written in a white screen, and under it there is something I believe to be a progress bar. But so far, nothing happened with it... the phone is sitting here, no progress at all...

So, I ask the members who succeded in flashing your clones: what is the behavior of this screen during the flashing?

Thank you for your attention.

[Touch 3G General] pino_zio:
other suggestion on how to improve it ?

Hello friends!

I have a T4242 which has poor WiFi, poor GSM and poor GPS signals.

I upgraded to WM6.5 and also tried the WiFi tip from "jaya21", but my T4242 doesn't want to work like it should.

I'm quite ready to throw it out from the window.

Does anyone has additional suggestion on how to get better result from WiFi, GSM, GPS ?

thanks a lot
[Touch 3G General] 06citizen06:
Guys concerning the gps, another trick that has to be tried: http://igoradars.over-blog.fr/article-30474329.html

They explain that you've got to :

-create a folder named CLM in your iGo folder

-download the file and put it into this folder

It is supposed to accelerate the time needed to get a fix.

I'll try it tomorrow and I'll let you know.

pino_zio issues

Hi pino_zio,

More info please....

Does it all work fine standing next to the wifi router or bluetooth device ur connecting too? or you still have issues?

Does it work ok with the USB cable plugged in?

You could try extending the antennas as per previous notes in this thread, tin foil works for me but it aint pretty.
[Touch 3G General] trashgorg:
I used "Flash Format" (http://www.cnetx.com/format/download.asp) inside the phone to format the SD with FAT16. After that, I have copied the SMART.UPR file from the phone memory to the SD and then shut off the phone. Putting if in "TF_card Update!" mode, same thing happens: just the white screen with progress bar standing still.

I will try to get an adapter to format the SD in my desktop PC, and try again. Anyway, that rectangle is really a progress bar? Will I see anything happen during the flashing?

Thanks a lot!
[Touch 3G General] stefansjs:
yeah, that rectangle is a progress bar.....a green progress bar! :)

did you put the smart.upr file in the root directory?

it takes about 5min to flash, so just wait a while and see if something happens.

it will show 'update success' if the flash was successfull.
[Touch 3G General] pino_zio:
I confirm, the rectangle is a progress bar, you should see a green bar raising in the next 5 minutes.

Another suggestion could be to use a different SD card brand, or make sure that yours is FAT formatted.
