[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] aniym:
Don't want to disappoint you, but I also have a newish Tilt 2 from AT&T and am encountering the same glitchy audio problems, on a Class 6 8GB Transcend card.

- First I thought it could be fixed by installing a new ROM...nope.

- Then I thought it was because the PocketScrobbler app I was using was interfering with playback on Microfi Nitrogen...nope. Tested with HTC Audio Manager and WMP.

- Then I thought it was because my reception would drop out when i entered the subway, thus intefering with playback. Nope. This happens in open air environments as well.

- Then I thought that maybe my card was bad. Nope. I have a GSM BB Storm as a backup phone, and in the last three months, I've also had a Samsung Blackjack 2, LG Incite and Blackberry Bold 9700, NONE of which had issues with the MicroSD.

- Finally, I thought that using data while playing music was causing interference, as starting up Opera caused the music to skip for a second, and skip continuously after, then stop completely once the MicroSD card could no longer be recognized. This is also not the case, as the music has stopped randomly even when I wasn't using the web.

The only thing I can think of is that this might be a Windows Mobile issue, since my BJ2 *only very occasionally* would forget the MicroSD card was there, and would see it again on reboot. But then again, I had the LG Incite, on which I ran stock and cooked 6.1/6.5 ROMs, with no problems. I'm thinking that the MicroSD slot itself might be faulty, which SUCKS because I got the phone off Craigslist, so I don't have warranty coverage. It also sucks that a POS like the LG incite can avoid these problems and a premium phone from HTC cannot. I don't think this is limited to AT&T TP2s, as T-mobile users and people who bought it unlocked at Expansys have also reported this problem:

http://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/T-Mob...2;jsessionid=E138479254B6F03FF80A36A2DD879AF5

http://www.expansys-usa.com/ft.aspx?k=120255

So far, I've been having OK luck by using WMP to play music and Internet Explorer for data. But even after ~2hrs of playback, it stopped on WMP reporting a "fatal error"...basically, it could no longer detect the card.

I'm surprised XDA doesn't have a big thread on this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] aniym:
Hmm, i may have been a bit hasty in my original condemnation of the Touch Pro 2's microSD problems. I read about how Transcend cards have had problems with the phone, and decided to use a Class 2 Sandisk 8GB card (came with my BB storm) in it instead, after doing a full format using the Panasonic SD formatter software.

Happily, I was able to avoid the problems I was having before with respect to stuttering playback and disappearance of the card in Windows Mobile (currently using Jackos' 6.1/Sense UI hybrid ROM). I have had playback for over 2 hours with no cutting out, even while I was in the subway (when phone reception cuts out) and while surfing.

Perhaps the problem was with the Transcend card itself, though I know that it's a good brand and has otherwise worked flawlessly in my previous phones. The card is about a year old, while the Sandisk is about four months in.

I think I will carefully study what XDA Rhodium peeps have to say about the soon-to-be-released 32GB microSD cards before taking the plunge myself.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] macaraballojr:
I have a transend 16GB class 2 micro card and for some reason when i put it into my TP2 it slows down to the point where I would have to do resets. Especially with manila 2.5
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] telegraph0000:
Is there a solution to something I'm sure most of us are starting to deal with...the ever growing separation of the 2 pieces of the fuze?

When in the closed position, the phone separates from itself around 1-2mm, when using the screen, you can feel the phone make a clicking sound (and you feel the 2 pieces hit each other).

Any screw that needs to be tightened or something else to get rid/alleviate the spacing?
[P3400 ROM Development] mehra:
Dear friends, just sharing what I discovered today. I have found many posts ASKING about how to make any audio player working with set on standby mode. Maybe some of u know but for those who don't here is what I found today.

If u want to play music while set is in standby (screen off) :-

1- play WMP

2- press start

3- goto today

4- press power button, so that screen goes off thus set is in stanby

Thats all - WMP is still playing, Good ???:)

Enjoy!:D:D:D
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Heh, no buddy, that doesn't mean anything. There are a bunch of registry settings that should be there. In all my new roms, this is taken care of. Other thing is that the headset should be plugged into the phone to make this happen :)
[P3400 ROM Development] Addicted2xda:
Do you know something funny? After you go to standby with the headphone connected and then remove the headphone, it continues to play :D. Seen it with AudioManager, dont know about wmp.

@mehra: It really depends on your particular device, there are a lot in which it doesn't work without reg tweak even when the headphone is attached, like mine, until as krazy said, you do the tweaking.
[P3400 ROM Development] mehra:
ok

i was lucky for no tweaking was required. :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] spor:
i have a htc touch pro its on the metro pcs servise can i get turn by turn gps on it
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Nghiem:
I don't know if metro pcs blocks GPS like Verizon do it to their phones.

Install Garmin, Oncourse, or Tomtom (not offically support for North America) to see if it works. Search for tomtom navigator 7 in this board, install it onto you TP, it will let you download a tiny, free sample city map.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] guyver76:
So far the new ROM is ok. I like being able to remap my PTT. My question is about while typing either e-mail, text, or whatever the word is highlighted but for what. when i try to add a name to whoever i'm sending the message to unlike the old ROM it just highlights what i type it doesn't begin suggesting names. how do i disable this function. thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Nudnik:
What is this feature? Mine does it too but it appears to be random. Any thoughts?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fone_fanatic:
Try disabling "Enable Auto Correct" in your input settings
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] p51d007:
When typing the message, press the function key, then the right > key

at the right most lower corner of the keyboard (if it is a fuze). The pop up

will display, it is probably on T9, select abc, and that should stop it, if that is the problem you are having. ;)
[G1 General] szymc1o:
i don't if anyone notice but recently i believe june 1st, tmobile decided to raise the cost of g1 plans. i was on the phone with them yesterday because i got a g1 for my wife and it turns out that the package i had for 24$ which includes 400 txt, is now gone. you have to pay the 24$ for internet and another 4.99$ for txt.
[G1 General] supersize:
That's how mine has been since last December, and it was the same way with my old unlocked blackjack.....:confused:
[G1 General] RueTheDay:
I got my G1 a few months ago and signed up for the unlimited loyalty plan: unlimited minutes for $49.99 and unlimited data with 400 texts for $24.99. I don't think I'll ever switch plans again.
[G1 General] wp_815:
Hmmm, weird, 'cause I've had my G1 since about a week before it was offered to the public, and I have had the Unlimited Everything plan for $35.00. I have had this plan and still do, for the same price. And as far as I know, it hasn't changed for any new G1 owners.
[G1 General] odomandr:
this plan FTW.
[G1 General] CBowley:
Thats what i had, then i switched to a family plan, same deal pretty much. tmo sucks with their price changes. When I had a sidekick the plan was $25 for unlimited everything besides voice, then when i bought the g1 the lpan went up to $35.
[G1 General] mrcrs:
when i had a sidekick, my data plan was $19.99..... those where the days... ahhhh
[G1 General] jcohenlv:
Seriously just get the 1000 min unlimited text and data plan. $88.79 a month with tax done over, no BS.
[G1 General] texanman:
family plan for 4 phones *mines a g1* 1000 minutes unlimited texting 120$ my phone with data extra 25 that's better then what att can offer for the same thing
[G1 General] xidominicanoix:
Yeah im on the same boat with a 4-way family plan ... best deal ive seen
[G1 General] bladepbc:
everyone should go to freelancers.org and sign up..u can get up to a 12-15% savings on total bill take five mins to do it on the phone.

best of all its free!
[G1 General] thelamacmdr:
Hmm so with the 400 text messages...does that mean 400 sent and received or just sent? Cause with My Account it only shows the sent text messages...I don't wanna run up the bill more than it already is.
[G1 General] jaboswell:
I wish I didnt have Flexpay so I could use the new BillShrink they offer....anyone have luck lowering their g1 plan with it? Im paying $91 and some change a month. 300Min, Unlimited m2m, Unlimited data/text. unlimited 5 faves.
[G1 General] jacsonmoore3:
Yup the family plan is the way 2 go
[G1 General] kusotare:
thats not how billshrink works. billshrink is a third party website that you input your typical cell usage, texting, etc and it compares price plans for all of the major mobile carriers and tells you which one is going to have the best plan. it doesnt actually make your bills smaller with tmo.
[G1 General] Steeltippin:
Crazy how you have to pay for text, my boy works for tmobile and said it does not cost tmobile any money for text messages.
[G1 General] Roadmasta01:
I have this set up as well, and I don't send a huge amount of texts so this is a pretty sweet set up for me.
[G1 General] Senorkabob:
Tried this, T-Mobile wasnt accepting it or something. I called them twice.
[General Questions and Answers] hajduk90:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] WhO_KnOwS:
I had a chance to play with my friends Pro2 today and I was really impressed. While Dutty's or kwbr's ROMs come close to what the Pro2 offers, it still managed to blow me away. Having a working facebook implementation AND working push internet was enough to make me dream of having it on my HD.

So, to all the great chefs out there - would anyone of you be willing to make a clean Rhodium port, keeping all of the functionality intact? I am sure a lot of people would like it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Terrorhuhn:
Push internet is available as a Cab, well working!

Wheres your Problem with Facebook integration? I think that works very well on my Topix!

greets
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] WhO_KnOwS:
Currently all of the custom ROMs have broken push internet - it does not work as advertised, instead it only updates the pages when the phone is not idle (ie in a locked state). It seems that changing the base they are all using broke something that push internet needs.

Simply stuck and wandering...

Hi there

I am a noob in this area. I am reading the forum for the last days and trying to upgrade my i-mate jamin G3 but i always get stuck...

I started this thread as it involves more than one thread I read, namely

- Windows Mobile 6 Directory For Dummies

- New WM6 Upgrade Guide

- HardSPL guide and files

- Prophet Tools Light: Just the flash! & Prophet Tools: Simplify Flashing--V2.8.3 now up!

- Current upgrade guide for the most ROMs

- LAZYTOOL For all nk.nbf FLASHING + 3 color bootup SOLUTION + (PLEASE READ.........)

- WM 6.5 build 21501 Titanium [ Fixed ] & Fixed CommManager, and other ROMs I tryed...

- ...

so here it goes:

#1# I tryed to run HardSPL an I got an error message like this:

'One or more CON code pages invalid for your given keyboard'

so i guess i didn't work...

#2# then I tryed with ProphetTools and after doing the HardSPL it asks (in jamin) to run JumpSPL I click on yes and then I get white screen (in jamin) I click the flash rom and then I get either:

- error 260 or 274 - connection - this sometimes is worked around and got to 208

or/then

- error 208 - file open (and I did put the nk.nbf rom file in ...\Tools (as said on PTL) and also tryed in ...\Utils\Flash)

#3# While in white screen (achieved with PTL) I also tryed ROM 21501 (with its own RUU) and I get 3 colour screen after supposedly successful upgrade...

#4# also tryed lazyTool but got the same 3 colour screen

#5# With the no vendor NVID_RUU (got from lazy tool thread) I got it back to WM5 and working, pitfully i forgot to dump my original rom so now i am stuck in WM5 in English (i at least had it in Portuguese - my native L)...

I found this comment from dioxda2 in another thread...

Quote:

... actually my prophet (jamin) works fine after I flashed the NVID, the problem is that I can't put it to work with any other ROM...

So any of senior experts plz advice:)

hopefully i am missing some supidly simple solution:rolleyes:

#6# Meanwhile if someone knows were do download a original PTG ROM for prophet I would appreciate.

MYG

Jamin G3 unlocked

IPL 2.13

SPL 2.20

my prophet is G4 so slightly different i would ask you to post detail for the second boot screen

here is mine

IPL 2.10.001

GSM 02.19.21
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] MYGene:
My SPL only shows:

IPL 2.13

SPL 2.20
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] marekPLPH:
im a total noob here too but i never encountered the same prob as you have.. i see SPL 2.20 right... so if you want to flash a ROM from here its required that you do HardSPL. i have a G3 device too. you might want to try this... i will try to help as much as i can...

make sure your USB cable/cradle is working perfectly and try to attached it at the back of your PC CPU...

and btw are you using XP or VISTA? coz i use XP...

just RUN HardSPL and let it do its thing... when its done check your SPL again..
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] MYGene:
I just got another USB cable borrowed and tried the HardSPL you uploaded and it Worked:D

Actually It gave me the same error message about 'One or more CON code pages invalid for your given keyboard' but this time I didn't got the 3colour screen at the end, instead it restarted normally with SPL 2.G3:D

I am just waiting battery charge reaches 50% to try flashing it

Many thanks

(I assume either i got a corrupted HardSPL file either a bad USB cable...)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] marekPLPH:
Good to hear this...

Happy Flashing!!!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] wapvirus:
That,s great news and happy flashing ;)
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Svenitos:
I installed Skype a well known problem is that the sound is coming out of my rear speaker:

I searched xda-developers but couldn't find anything but posts of a few years back and non of them contained a solution.

Anyone know if there are some "tweaks" that make this possible?

Edit: Maybe this'll work:

I would like to report that I'm running Fring on Maple and it is able to switch audio to the earphone. :)

[Dash 3G, Snap General] computerpro3:
Are you kidding me? I can't get my ozone to do it whatsoever...I just hear no sound at all when I select "enable earpiece".
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] flitar:
I followed this tutorial (2nd post down), got some errors during the process and failed to complete it.

Now my phone hangs on the vodafone splash screen on boot. I think it is empty - without a rom.

However, it will boot to recovery and the bootloader fastboot.

Is there anything I can do to fix it or is it just a brick now?

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers,

Flitar
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] w3rw01f:
boot into recovery and perform update with some rom

you will need to have some external device to write your microsd
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] biktor_gj:
If you get to a modded recovery image, you can run adb

1. Run "adb shell".

2. Once you're connected, remount the microsd card (it the os is broken it doesn't mount it automatically, at least on my phone) by running "mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /sdcard"

3. Run "exit" on the terminal, so you can go back to your desktop computer.

4. Copy an update file to the sd card using adb, for example: "adb push [name_of_the_file] /sdcard/update.zip

5. Run the update from the recovery menu.

6. Reboot.

If that doesn't work, and if you did a nandroid backup, you still can update using fastboot by using the image files from the sd card (wich, by the way, you can copy from the phone back to the pc by using the command "adb pull [remote_file_name] [local_file_name]

Thanks you guys!

Sorted, phone is fine now.

*****WARNING*****

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU MAY DO TO YOUR EXCALIBUR

PLEASE USE PRECAUTION AGAINST STATIC CHARGE

*****WARNING*****

ok after more than an hour of taking pictures and editing im finally ready to upload them and be done with this. geeze you cooks must have some patience! my hats off to ya...so here we go...hope this helps atleast one person out there to make it worth my time.

ok to start we are going to need a t6 screwdriver, a prying tool a percision phillips screwdriver. (I ADVISE YOU USE A ANTI-STATIC WRISTBAND TOO)

so flip your dash over, remove the battery cover, take the battery out, and set off to the side. locate the rubber pieces from the picture below and remove them with your prying tool.

this next part is VERY important. note the void sticker over the top of the right screw. by opening your case you void any warrenty that may be active. just use you t6 to remove both of the screw (note they are silver)

now we only have four more screws to remove to get the back panel off, they are circled in red below, use your t6 again here. these screws are black

with all the screws out of the back panel you now need to take your prying tool and put in between the back panel and the chrome piece on the dash, if this is your first time it will be tight. dont be afraid to use a little force. (on the real tight spots is where it latches, that where you need to pry)

now comes the part i found a little different between my two dash's. the one made in china is the one i used in this guide (i have included a picture of the other one to show the differences). go ahead and remove the back panel. on my china dash the wire to the battery thing was NOT connected to the back panel and on my other dash it WAS connected to the back panel.

i didnt circle it but in the second picture you can see a wire going to the back panel and in the first picture you dont see that. in the next step you can see it nice and snug under the connector.

now locate the connection from the picture below and lift it out of the socket. easy to do just use your nail on the end and lift up.

the circled red connector below holds that cabel on, just use your nails and lift straight up on this and set it off to the side. i sat it in the spot on the back panel that it was on with my other dash

with thoes done we move on to the next spot, with again is circled in red below. use your prying tool, as pictured, to open the latch up.
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
here i used my nails and removed the "cable" by using the two tiny tabs on the side

the next thing we need to disconnect is below. again use your prying tool to open the latch like you did before.

once you have it open use remove the "cable" by using the circled tab

now the we almost have the mobo off. soo use the t6 to remove the screw, this is also a silver screw but, as noted, their is a difference in size.

the last thing holding the mobo on is two clips, and guess what? their pictured below...

\

i just used my nail to hold one back a little and lifted the mobo out and set it aside. ( the picture shows the "front" of it)

the antenna just lifts off, but you dont need to remove it

and this is what you should see now

were now ready to remove that chrome piece, note that the two circled "cables" go THROUGH the chrome piece.
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
i used the prying tool to remove the chrome piece, it came off really easy. hopefully it does the same for you

and heres a picture showing the "cables" that go through the chrome piece

set the chrome piece off to the side, and were almost done here

now its time to remove that lcd, which is so easly broken for most people. see the circled peice on the back? that grounds it out, just peel it off. and remove the lcd. i just put my hand over it and flipped the phone over. it came right out and i set it off to the side

now we can see the finish line

their are 3 screws to remove to get the keyboard pcb board off. use a percision phillips screwdriver (the one pictured in my first post is just a small phillips, it worked just fine)

set it off to the side and the keypads will just fall out if you turn the phone over

and thats it. i did not include how to remove the jogger bar, i have not done soo, no need to. if you do please take pictures to add to the guide.

please let me know what you think. i have included all the pictures in a zip file, they are a little better quality.
[HTC Excalibur] phuKKah:
Thanks xDD

Now, when I find the new housing I want, I can finally do it.

[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
thats right, i remember a thread on that a little while ago. if you ever find it let me know, id love to have that too. maybe a translucent black or blue one.

i just wanna remove the damn t mobile logo but dont know how to do so without scatching the case. as you can see in the first post, where i scratched it removing the logo lol
