[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ldrn:
I would, honestly -- it looks like it could be fun to write code for, even with the Touch Pro's superior specs.

But the Touch Pro, thanks in large part to the great software people wrote for it, is very nice and does what I need (almost) -- plus, I just renewed my contract to get it seven months ago. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] antjmon:
Well I have already left for the Pre. I had a fuze (had ATT but switched to Sprint b/c of a much better value) but the touch pro is ridiculously priced on Sprint's network, its almost 50% higher than the pre itself, and I couldn't justify spending any more than what I did for the Pre...especially since the TP2 will be out soon. Anyway, I've had the pre for a few days now and I do miss the TP to a certain degree. The biggest thing I miss are the options that are universally provided by windows mobile. The TP in my opinion is still my favorite phone device that I've ever had, but the Pre isn't bad by any means. I just dont know what to do with all the free time I have now that I'm not able to flash custom roms anymore!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] montecristo1:
Palm pre looks like a chic phone...slide down keyboard is weak...staying with my touch pro!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fone_fanatic:
aren't there a bunch of hardware issues with the pre like case cracking and the screen part spinning/twisting from the keyboard slider. Also read it has horrible battery since its always downloading data.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 8525Smart:
I'm interested in the Palm Pre and I'm thinking about switching, but currently, there are some serious issues that needs to be addressed:

1) Hardware - I held the Palm Pre at Best Buy and it was plain horrible. It didn't feel smooth and the QWERTY keyboard was very bad; I know that I would not be able to type effectively with that keyboard.

2) Screen and resolution - I'm really sorry, but a 3.1in screen and QVGA resolution is just not going to be good enough. The screen should be at least 3.5in and the resolution should at least be VGA (if not WVGA). I also hope that either Palm or Apple eventually moves to an AMOLED screen (but this is more of a wish than a requirement).

These are my two main gripes with the Palm Pre. It's a very good device, but it actually seems more dated than Apple's iPhone in some cases. Considering the iPhone is already outdated in a lot of ways, this is not a good thing. Meh, maybe later WebOS phone models will be superior, but at this point, I really can not switch to the Pre with those issues above.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] slick69:
3.1" screen and HVGA res with an all-new OS designed to take advantage of the capacitive screen is worse than a 2.8" line-doubled VGA screen that acts as QVGA?

Sound like somebody is missing the forest for the trees. :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 8525Smart:
Is that towards me? Next time, try pressing the 'Quote' button as I often ignore posts that doesn't have anything from my post in quote form (or at least quotation marks).

Now then, I'm sorry that I gave you the impression, but not once did I say the Pre had a worse screen/res than the Raphael. No, I don't mind if you go ahead and re-read my post to make sure. I think you may be surprised.

What I'm saying is that I'm not going to pay to upgrade to a new phone if I don't find the specs good enough. When I'm ready to buy a new phone, I'm not going to buy the Raphael a second time. I'm going to buy a phone that has a bigger screen, equal/higher res, better CPU, and just overall better specs. If that special phone happens to have WebOS on it, even better, but unfortunately, the Palm Pre is not that phone.

Thanks for the info!

Pics you mention are not available
[HTC Excalibur] chelsea_fc:
the standard device didn't get honeycomb :(
[HTC Excalibur] jeonatl3:
I wouldn't have thought there would be enough space on the screen for Honeycomb to work effectively, maybe on a landscape screen like the Excalibur but not on portrait orientated smartphones? I might be wrong but just my first impression.

Would be great to see those pics, please fix them OP! :-)

[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
im sorry for posting twice in a row, but i just downloaded and installed this and i gotta say i dont see much of a difference. i was expecting to see a titanium looking home screen and it just looks like sliding panles to me, even checked in the settings
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
You didn't post twice in a row?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Yes it looks like M$ has really stepped it up a gear for WMStandard users :p:D

Years of planiing must have gone into it lol
[HTC Excalibur] roloracer:
You're not kidding, it's impressive the amount of work that went into this upgrade , they must've had a hell of a team working on this. :rolleyes:

Seriously! How much of an upgrade this is , really! I got to say that I'm quite dissapointed with MS. There shouldn't be any reason why they can't make it look and feel like a mayor upgrade, make it look like the real wm6.5 pro for ppc. That's the way it should be. :cool:

I wish there was a way to make the WM6.5 Pro ppc version work with our phones. :(
[HTC Excalibur] phatmanxxl:
I guess well have to wait for WM7 then. It just looks like and official MS version of 6.1.
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
Well although it doesn't have a big visual upgrade, there might be huge optimizations that could give a huge speed bonus, and it might be lighter on RAM.

But if you think about it, most software that has different versions don't have a big change until the next full integer (v2 to v3 for example)

6.1 was a big visual upgrade over 6.0, so maybe 6.5 standard has a big performance upgrade instead.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
What like Vista did over XP P.M.S.L :p:D

It's just that we are still on about M$? Not like we get .1 .2 .3 so would be good to see something more like WM6.5 interface for SP would't have been that hard....

Lets just hope more refined?

Anything is possible in the world of Windows.... :D
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
i didnt notice someone sneak a post in between my two lol. performance upgrade would be nice but id put money on it taking more rom.
[HTC Excalibur] thisone:
I love your roms.... :D i cannot wait for what you cook up next!
[HTC Excalibur] ookba:
Yea, its pretty plain for now. The emulator image is also missing most of the OEM Packages. I'm working on duming the XIP (21234 Standard) out of it now but it's not cooperating. Anyone ever dumped an XIP out of an emulator?
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Not missing. They're not supposed to be there. OEM packages are just that.. OEM.... Not MSFT :) In our case the "OEM" is HTC... So of course you're not going to see them in a MS release ;)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I seriously doubt WM7 will run on the Excalibur :P
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
Even if it does get WM7 on it, it would run so badly that it wouldn't even be worth it. I'm pretty sure that WM7 is going to be optimized for touch screen enabled devices anyways, so the interface would suck, kinda like the interface of Android on the Excalibur.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattjirmanos:
Hi,

I've had an att fuze for a long while and the flashing is wayyyy different on that thing.

I've read all the FAQ stuff out there but can't get anything to work.

I already bought 2 micro sd cards.

I downgraded the RC to 29, and then it erased my data on the original 1GB card. I forgot to make a backup on accident.

I went to the thread that taught me how to get the hero ROSIE rom on the phone, and it said I needed 2 sd cards. Now, I went to buy a new SD card.

So the original card is blank, and the new card is blank, when I plug it into the phone, windows does not recognize it, nor does the phone.

If I boot up the phone with the old card inside of it, that starts up fine, but it is completely blank.

SO i'm kind of stuck at the part where you need to format the sd card, I have 2 micro sd cards that are blank, and windows cannot recognize them.

Any help to get me up and running would be greatly appreciated.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BUNZ1:
So you're pretty much starting from a clean slate then? I think your next step is to first format one of the sd cards with ext2. So you're going to have to find the articles here on how to do it. I recommend going the route of using a linux portable cd like GPARTED to make the partition on the SD Card.

After you do that, copy the extracted app_s to the ext2 partition using the directions provided. Pretty much.. go from there with the nice articles we have.

I honestly didn't use two SDCards. I used adb to put the new update.zip containing the hero rom and just reflashed.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattjirmanos:
HMMM

i am so damn lost right now... a linux live cd? you can't do this from a windows vista pc?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoobs:
In the future please search, and post in the correct thread/forum. Thank you.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattjirmanos:
I'm pretty much trying to follow the directions perfectly to get this ROSIE UI on the phone, but the problem is i've read all the tutorials, but the phone cannot recognize my sd cards, and windows can't recognize it at all.

So i can't really do any steps because the phone isnt recognizing anything, i've tried windows, and a couple of other programs to get the card formatted, but no luck.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattjirmanos:
Sorry mod. i'm pretty active on the other phone communities on this forum, but am having a real hard problem with the g1. This post was my last resort. I've read a lot of FAQ's tutorials, instructions etc... i'm jsut kind of stuck thats why i'm making this new thread.

Hi

I have 2 gb micro sd card and I want to format it using Resco file explorer. But it keeps telling me to check to see if its unlocked.

I use to be able to format without a problem. But i have recently started to flash roms. I can put stop and take stuff without a problem. Just won't let me format.

I also tried formatting using my laptop, but won't work.

EDIT: Sorry, wrong place. Wanted to post this in general Kaiser forum.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] thefatboy:
Is the little write protect tab on the side of the sd card in the right position??
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tilt4life2:
i moved it off the lock position and nothing? my comp won't even let me right click it. when I click to open it, says needs to be formatted and when i click format PC says it can't be formatted.

I searched on here, but no thread about this type of problem. card isn't ruined because i can still add and delete stuff.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] anagarika:
I never experience this issue .. quite confusing.

However, this should be posted in General forum, not ROM Development. Mod, please move as such ..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] milind_s16:
Could be a problem with the card / slot connectors. Try with some other card reader.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] brandall:
I had an issue once where I couldn't format my card - I had no lock errors though, just couldn't format through the PC or with PPC programs.

Eventually I installed 'Flash Format' by CNetX (google it) - it formatted first time on the free evaluation version.

Worth a try if you're about to bin it!

Good luck.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tilt4life2:
You sir are a genius and a life-saver! :D

This product is a magical potion for the microSD card. I tried so many different things online, on the laptop, and the Kaiser and none worked. This thing took less than a minute and formatted with the click of one button. :D

Mods, please move this thread. Hopefully it can help others who might have this problem in the future.

Thank you very much sir!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] brandall:
Glad it worked - it's very strange that this little program seems to be able to sort the issues that even the premium programs can't....

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] guevr001:
thank you for keeping us updated, I have been curious to see hergs work and Thia Chi's moves, I wish i could hit a thanks button

.......Ok I had some time to play with this rom (yay!!)

This rom is responsive, gave me no errors installing, gave me no errors syncing, the wm menu actually stops when scrolling up and down(something I have not seen cooked 6.5 roms, much nicer vga scroll bars(before QVGA), I can confirm TP2 Keyboard does work, I can confirm TP2 phone does work, it does include custom taskbar icons

with that said this is a very raw build, icons and menu setup is very presserved. You will need to have some patience and skill to organize the menu like you like it (move icons into themed folder and most used to the top), restart is a good program for this, you will not find a setup connection icon but you can setup using the getting started icon, you will have to search and manually place desired short cuts in the windows/start menu(at times...oh looks like total commander installed under tools icon), although humorous I don't know how long you will be able to stand the boot wave( you can disable this with Advanced Config you can find this in the tools Folder) you can change the sound under the animation sub menu.

Don never evolved with the sport but his still is a legend and UFC hall of famer.

Fedor has never fought in K1 but he was the pride HW champ and is the consensus top HW in the world and people argue if he or Anderson Silva is the top P4P in the world, he just beat Arlovski, and Tim Sylvia, if he beats Josh Barnett he will be the consensus P4P.

I have romed it for many time by different roms, but that does not work.

I want to know what's wrong with my phone? Is that hardware problem? Does anybody have the same problem like me? How can I solve this problem?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Beeble:
So... you've flashed a custom rom, and now have some problems?

First, soft reset - test

Uninstall related software - test

re-install related software - test

hard reset - test

flash different rom - test

Sounds like a software problem to me, but if you still have problems with using WMP on a basic stock rom, then maybe you have something more serious.

Oh - and remember to check the files you are using for test arent corrupt!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pollux_09:
Thanks a lot.

There is another question.how can I uninstall related software? I can't find the WMP.......

I tried the last two methods. that does not work. Maybe uninstall related software and re-install related software will be ok. But I can't find the .cab file.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Beeble:
If you have flashed a different (lite, or oem) rom, and not installed anything else, then you dont need to worry about removing any software - the flash will have removed it.

When you say you cant find wmp, you mean you cant find how to uninstall\re-install it? or you cant find the program on your phone?

afaik, you cant remove wmp (except maybe when cooking a rom). But if you have a fresh setup, and open an mp3 from file explorer - what happens?

Does media player load? load & crash? load & play, but with no sound? give an error message?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pollux_09:
yeah, I can't find how to uninstall\re-install the WMP. I know where it is. It is in the "windows" document. I can use WMP to play the "ring sound" of the system.

I fresh the rom,and if I open the WMP, the system deads. I have to restart it.If I open an mp3 from file explorer, it just load, and give an error message:The system can not find the file specified.

I thought that was caused by I put the mp3 files in a Chinese name dicument, so I moved the files to the "My document" of the storage card, that does not work either. I can't even play the wma files.

Every rom has the same result. I don't know what's the problem with my phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Beeble:
I'm afraid i have no idea what the problem is. really sorry i cant help
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pollux_09:
Thank you all the same
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pollux_09:
I found what the problem is!

I can play files on my phone, but not on the storage card!

I format the storage card, everythig is ok!

hope this could help someone else.
[G1 General] Denkai:
Okay, I've pretty much been self help during my tenure of android exploiting, to call what I do hacking is an insult to cyan, lucid and JF and all the work they are doing. but I want some opinions on what I should do next.

I know there is some other SPLs up there, I'm currently running the HardSPL (a modified version on the Enginneering SPL distributed with the ADP). Should I upgrade to a newer SPL (I.E. Haykuro), is there even a point seeing as I have A2SD with a class 6 chip? Note I do intend on staying with Cyan's JF builds.

I also understand upgrading to some SPLs require a newer Radio then I probably have. I believe I can find the radio version on the Camera + Power screen. What are the benifits to upgrading the Radio, and should I upgrade my Radio even if I decide the SPL isn't worth it?

Prodigal Sun, Hero Port, Aero, and Black Ice are all different themes, however I can't decide if I want to use one and which one. Prodigal Sun is my favorite by far, however I plan on using AHome, so I'm not sure it it will work. I also like Aeros toolbar up top look. Any other Themes that someone might suggest would be great. Remember I'm on JF 1.51 Cyan Edition :)

Okay, also this seems like a wierd question but as far as ADP vs .odex, which is better and what difference is there really? ADP seems to run faster even though .odex is supposed to be "optimized."

Thanks for any and all inputs!
