The one I got " Gel Skin " does not have protection on the sides, i.e the shiny area .

It only covers the front piece and the back piece as shown in the picture. Its a lil expensive than the normal one. But the front panel skin is peeling off and im quite pissed about it . The back panel seems all fine.

If you are looking for a complete protection , pick up the other model. Its not the gel skin , i forgot what its called. You can find it on www.uniqueskins.com
[Touch HD Accessories] envoy_467:
many thanks man!!!

i'dlike something customizable and "gelly"!

i supposed it will probably detached from the phone quite easily.... :(

how sad... looked so nice..
[Touch HD Accessories] napsterdj:
It does, i fell for the booby trap of thinking More Money = Better Product.

Go for the 19$ one and it looks pretty good.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Oliy:
Hi all,

I haven't seen anyone mention one of the more hyped selling points of the TP2 - the Conference Call feature. Does it work? And more importantly, does it work on your network?

The reason I ask is I am on T-Mobile UK with my Kaiser (and my TP2 when it arrives tomorrow) and I cannot conference two calls together - when I press the conference button, it says "The operation failed". A little research on Google seems to suggest that T-Mo UK are probably the only operator globally who have this functionality disabled.

Will this mean that if the TP2 is ever released through T-Mo retail that it will have this function disabled? Is that why it has been delayed - they are upgrading their network to cope with conference calling?

I'd be interested to know, especially if anyone has already got one on T-Mo UK.

Cheers
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] izudeen:
Im not sure about T-Mo

However, the option you need is Call Waiting & Call Conferancing; this option usually need to be activated with your telco under VAS (Value Added Service); some may charge to have this function activated

the best you call T Mobile and ask specifically about this function
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Oliy:
As I feared, T-Mobile UK don't support conference calling so that feature doesn't work. I phoned CS yesterday to ask, and all I got was "it may be supported in the future".
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Greenturtle:
Actually I found my TyTn II did this yesterday. I put a call on hold and saw an exciting 'conference button' in the Opal dialer. Pushed it and I got some message about not being supported.

I'm on Orange.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nicelad_uk:
UK o2 = No no no. :(

Pretty pointless feature when the network doesn't support it, I don' think many uk networks do, they have their own conference facitlity. (232 on o2 I think)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] quarintus:
T-mobile (ben) Netherlands: Yes, totally works. did it with my old hermes 2 months ago :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DelaVandaag:
Vodafone in the Netherlands supports the conference call facility.

A question I have in relation to this subject: does anyone know whether it is possible to have incoming phone calls join in a conference call? Example: I have a call with A on the TP2 and B calls me on the TP2 during that call with A. Can I organize that B will join the same call? If so, how? Is there any maximum of calls that one can have in such a conference call?

Cheers, dela
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] carterisgod:
Telus in Canada does NOT support the feature. BOOOO!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nfreire:
It works on Vodafone Portugal
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] powersquad:
Vodafone in NZ supports this but only for account customers and by default it's turned off but can be turned on request for free of cost.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] frav:
Yes, you can pick up the incoming phone call and join in a conference call you started (works well with Orange & unbranded TP2).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] frav:
Your device already has Conference Call capability.

Using Conference Call is a network dependent feature. So, based on what your operator allows you (your phone subscription/plan) - you will be able to use it or not.

BTW, Conf call works great on Orange ...

Hope it helps. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
Movistar in Mexico supports it, even on Prepaid, and for free (you just have to pay for both calls):D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rbroudo:
All Israeli operators (Orange, Cellcom & Pelefone) supports this feature
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Justin241982:
Mine worked twice on att then stopped, Any ideas why? I used it right when I got the phone then about 2 1/2 weeks ago and it worked great, now when I try I get two people on hold and the other call doesnt come through, and when I try to take the two peopl off hold is says it cant take the call off hold. Do you guys think this is a carrier issue like att not wanting me to use it or a phone/hardware issue?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vardig:
Works with Vodafone UK :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shadixs:
The Conference feature (aka Multiparty) requires a flag in your number's profile in HLR called "MPTY" activated. without that activated, you cannot make a conference call. contact your operator for this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] credinho:
I've been trying it on TMN-Portugal but no success at all...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] credinho:
Actually my operator also have this service, but it wasn't activated in my number. Now it is... but it seems that the other numbers that you are making the conference also need to have this service activated, otherwise it won't work.

Hey evryone

After a long search for a new mobile phone, and getting rid of my sony ericson cybershot i have chosen the new HTC touch pro II

The phone just looks amazing and i cant wait to get started with it.

Since im a total nub in the smartphones i have registered myself here in the hope to learn as much as fast as possible.

Since im unfamiliar with the software vocab like rom etc i was wondering if there exist any guide on this site that explains all the technical info.

Furthermore something i forgot to mention while ordering if the phone is sim- lock free, i think i read somewere it standard comes sim free, but maybe some1 can confirm this to me.

thx

Alsa
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shingers5:
hi welcome to the forum mate and don't worry you be fine. check out the tweaks thread by beast for some of the goodies already available for this device. check in HTC Blackstone/Touch HD forum for a comprehensive guide on the whole rom thing! basically the rom is the image file on your phone like a pc running windows 7. in phone case your rom is wm6.1. once hard spl is released there will be various people producing custom roms for your device which is in effect like upgrading from XP to Vista to Windows 7. there will be roms on offer from wm6.1(official) and wm6.5(currently beta) so you can customise your phone. currently we are waiting hardspl which is work in progress. all the tools you will need to flash your phone will also be available soon.

now at simlock issue. most people are reporting that tp2 come sim unlock from vodafone but the isue is that the phone will contain vodafone customisation and their rom. if you buy a debranded phone from an online stockist or from MPD it come unlocked and with generic software. this means that will be compatible with any network and phone will have HTC software on it. this means that you will be able to benefit from upgrades direct from HTC and not wait for the likes of vodafone to possibly release it. you will find that most software upgrades will be made readily available by HTC but the network providers seem to hold us to ransom.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Alsa86:
Thanks for the fast reply

As for the branded story, i did order my phone from a provider called KPN, its dutch and it is part of a extension on my mobile phone subcription which was due. Im pretty sure it will come branded, but is there any way to find out if its branded or not by looking at the mobile and its software itself?

As for unbranding it, i already read that, when the hard spl is released, there should be no problem getting rid of the CID. Therefore the branded/ sim part can be taken care off.

the only thing im worried about, since im new to this, is the risk of ruining a prefectly good mobile phone, hehe. Is the risk high? However i have already seen proffesional websites advertising payed sim unlock/ something to do with a EMEI code which will returned with an unlock code upon payment.

Futhermore i was looking for the following answer about data usage. Since i travel allot within the EU my data usage abroad ( within eu) will form a cost on top of my monthly subscription fee. Are there programs that monitor your data usage? I just read that the price for 1 MB from july 1 in holland under KPN will go down from 7,95 to 2,95 <-- this is when you have a internet subcsription ( without 3,95).

I would like to avoid high unexpected phone bills, and i have the feeling that with the touch pro II, i want to go more online haha.

so for example watching a youtube movie or visiting websites (news items)

how much does this normally translate in data usage?

thanks in advance

Alsa
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shingers5:
couldn't say as i got unlimited data plan in uk and when i travel i use one of them cheap sims that give low cost everything. watching a youtube will defo increase data usage thus cost alot. if your phone is branded it will have your service provider marks stamped all ovber phone. if it is not it will be pure HTC. you will know straight away so don't worry. yep IMEI unlocking can be done remotely using data cable and connecting to unlock server or via order form thru site. for the latter you send your phone details including IMEI number which they send to HTC to get generate your unlock code which you receive via email. you will know when you receive phone whats what and then take any steps you need to!

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] krixl:
Hi,

I got wanted to know if someone could tell me how to change the keyboard to the old GoogleKeyboard.

What I know, and I have already done that but it failed, was to delete the HTCIME - and copy the LatinIME + libjni.* to my magic.

When I restarted I had no keyboard.

I tried to install the apk with astro

I tried to install it with adb

but it failed...

I hope someone can help me
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zyon92:
delete juste htc_ime.apk.

Put your latinime.apk into the tools forlder from sdk, en go on dos promp :

adb install latinime.apk

and hop ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xd4d3v:
same here..

how do i delete the htc_ime.apk?

astro refuses to delete the file.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] krixl:
same error as before

adb install latinime.apk

917 KB/s (4799691 bytes in 5.109s)

pkg: /data/local/tmp/latinime.apk

Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]

I am running nk02 ION r3 lite
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xd4d3v:
I feel you mate.

I did an adb shell and delete the HTC_IME.

but the latinime does not install.

I got my latinime.apk from the french rom is 4668KB

where did you get yours?

r we doing something wrong?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] blunden:
I had to install Scandinavian Keyboard for it to work. After that, even the original keyboard works fine. :) Before I didn't have any keyboard at all. I don't know what to do for those who don't want that keyboard though. :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] krixl:
I had my files from the rootme-rom

but afaik you need the lib files in addition to the LatinIME.apk
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xd4d3v:
ok. I decided to restore the htc_ime found one in my hard drive and copied it back.

surprise, I got the what I thought was the latin_ime keyboard.

Hmmmm. is there any post with pictures of the keyboards, and features/download links?

No? Maybe we should start one?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] krixl:
can you link me your HTC_IME with your "latin_ime" style keyboard?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xd4d3v:
the one i'm talking about is dark grey to black, with no prediction ( as far as i can see) is that the one you want?

i got it from this rom.

[G1 General] zecbmo:
my phone has an orientation problem and htc wouldn't repair the phone as they said the warranty labels where removed, which was a complete lie as i found them intact as soon as i opened the phone. any way this is me trying to fix it. sorry for the bad quality and the phone being out of camera much. is my first time ever doing a disassembly vid.

not to spoil the video but i didnt correct the problem so if you have any ideas give us a shout cheers.

[G1 General] rhedgehog:
no idea how to fix it my self, but have you checked the service manual that is in the wiki?

might give you an idea of what switches you would need to have a look at, maybe?
[G1 General] Dreddge:
Dude,

You said some trouble getting the frame apart. Im always afraid I'm going break something.

By the way. Im a HUGE fan of Me First and The Gimme Gimmes. Nice video.
[G1 General] tubaking182:
i would suggest that you find the DREADIAG.nbh file on xda(the link is here somewhere) or send me a PM with your email and i'll send it to you in an email. the Diag image has a tool that is supposed to calibrate teh G-sensor which i would assume is what is wrong with your phone. i had this problem a few weeks ago and t-mo sent me a "new" phone. i tried the DREADIAG.nbh but it didn't seem to work for me, lay the phone down on it's back and run the diagnostic.
[General Questions and Answers] harddisk_wp:
Hi all,

my phone (WM6.0 Pro) has ~45 mb of ram, of which 15MB are free. Several 3rd party task manager show that only 10MB of it are occupied by processes (device.exe, filesystem.exe and gwes.exe consuming most of it), so there are 20MB of RAM "missing". Where are they and how can I free them, so iGO8 has more RAM?

Thanks,

Marco
[G1 General] Thanatos81:
Hi there everyone!

I'm using my G1 (german, T-Mobile branded) some months now and till latelty did not bother about rooting.

Now I found Bluex, which implements a function I was missing badly: Bluetooth OBEX. But receiving files is only possible with root.

This and Apps2SD are enough appetizers for me to get root. I plan on sticking to this guide but instead of using one of the linked ROMs I want to install "JFV1.51 CRB43 EU" from his Blog.

Now I got some questions, which hopefully will be answered by ono of you.

I guess the radio update should be the same as the US build?

Do you think this ROM is a good choice for my two prerequisites (Root and Apps2SD)?

Since this is my first root attempt, do you think that guide is OK for a generally tech savvy person?

Thanks in advance,

Thanatos81
[G1 General] linulli:
1. Radio updates are the same

2. The ROM is perfekt for you

3. Did not read the guide. Why don't you use a german guide (like this)

I used this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=443797

so long
[G1 General] maxisma:
But hey, attention!

You have to use the goldcard method!

Here's a guide for you in german:

http://www.android-hilfe.de/t-mobile-g1-forum/1912-goldcard-ohne-wmdevice-oder-linux.html
[G1 General] linulli:
he can use both methods! goldcard is not that easy. let him decide! :)
[G1 General] Thanatos81:
Thanks for your quick replies! I think I would also succeed at the goldcard method. Being a programmer, a hexeditor etc. are not such unusual tools ;-)

But since it is more complex and thus probably also more time consuming I would like to know if there are any big davantages in using a goldcard.
[G1 General] Thanatos81:
Hi again!

I rooted my phone succesfully using the goldcard method (didn't try the other one) and am now writing from JF 1.51 EU w/ DxTop ;-)

AppsToSD is also working with only one problem. When I install private apps like Bluex or Snap Photo Pro they FC on me. They even don't have there icons and most times do not show up on the App dock.

Does any of you have ahint for me? Unfortunately I did not try any of those apps before setting up AppsToSD 2.
[G1 General] Thanatos81:
Sorry for the double post...
[G1 General] linulli:
No, you can use both methods! With the GoldCard you can easy root other G1s. But if you just want to root one phone it doesn't mater.
[G1 General] Thanatos81:
Thanks for the heads-up, linulli. But as stated before I already succefully rooted my phone. I just got some issues with paid apps...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] axum:
What are the main differences from these two ROMS?

I have tried both.

My view?

Dutty ROM is more stable and less battery consuming

Laurentius ROM is more sexy and tweaked, has also more software

What is your opinion?

Axum
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
No doubt this thread will be closed as opinionated. Its your choice. You choose which you prefer as everyone elses preferences will most likely not be yours.

After trying both my preference is Duttys
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ardsar:
Having compared them last night, Dutty's is far faster and memory usage is far lower. Its down to your preference theough - try them both and see which one fits your purpose the best. Personally i prefer to have the option to install the software that i want, and therefore not a great lover of roms full of software.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] LewxX:
I prefer Duttys Rom,

also had tested both
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] axum:
So Dutty is the winner here?

Can you also tell me WHY you prefer one or the other ROM with hard facts, like lower battery-cunsumption or faster working or any other criteria that did you choose for one or the other ROM.

Axum
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] imatrix:
i am suprised, the thread is not closed yet.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Me too

Both roms have good battery lives and are both fast. My preference is down to me being biased towards Throy as a mate, one of his beta testers and that I have followed his roms for years.

I could go into detail, but again my best advice would be to try both yourself and make your own educated decision
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dhanu1978shka14:
Try Yourself

Mate,

If you really wanna know, try both the ROMs for few days (at least a week - each ROM). Then you will come across all the problems like battery, software issues, etc which is applicable to you on your hardware. The reason is same ROM might give different results on different hardware.

We have seen that it's happening on both the ROMs. For one guy it's working while the other suffers to make it work.

Saying that, it's really up to you mate , to decide which ROM to go for... I tried both & I have my own ++ & -- about them. :) and I think this thread is going to be closed soon.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RushaPoiL:
Why asking?

Give them a try !!

I m personnaly using Miri v19, very nice rom too, one more you should try haha ^^
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Trixster101:
After trying both I've dropped back to the most recent stock rom and just added to it what I need. The new cal feature is nice but not a seller for myself, and the stock rom just seems to use battery and memory much better for me.

Having said that when there is a newer release for custom I will no doubt flash again lol
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] igorok26:
Just try every ROM and see for yourself ^^
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rdgut:
You should try Topix or Vanilla Topaz.

Both are very fast and are very battery efficient :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mccune:
Onkolog's ROM is the best! Who uses TF3D anyway... ...just close this thread...

Choice is to personal to start a thread.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hmmhmm1222:
I just ported my old nokia 3110 os to my blackstone, no more have to worrie about ram, or bad battery issues. So anyone want those two to be sorted out just flash that rom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] VizagDude:
Here is my advise... Stick to the STOCK ROM. Probably thats the safest bet for you.

Don't be lazy dude... go through the change log for all the ROMs out there and choose one. I am sure most of the guyz here usually do not have a ROM on their deivse more than a week (at best). I know I dont.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DejaVu1977:
This is an unanswerable question.

The only way of knowing is trying them for yourself and see which one you prefer.

Lots of work go into creating these ROM's and no-one should be bias against any, purely as so much time and effort is put in by the author for your use for FREE. Appreciation is the only way to go. Keep up the good work to all the Cook's on here! Thanks!

ROM's are specific to personal preference. I know which I prefer, but I'm not going to say which as yours could be different. :)

The June magazine (which has the Compact V in it, even though its not available yet from a shop) says in the small print that the 18month sat nav will be included for ALL contracts before the 31st July.

Hi all!

I'm new here. I bought a new (half year old) kaiser with a cooked rom. First I restored the original wm 6.1 rom. But this is very slow. I searched and found a lot of rom but I can't choice. I search a rom which is small and fast include java and live messenger and better camera driver (too noisy and after sunset it is taking a picture up to 10 seconds!). I found a new display driver under development, on this page. I would like to this driver be part of the cooked rom, if the driver is working property (i hope this is understandable :) ). So my phone is original non-SIM-locked and the bootloader has cracked. one thing: on the original rom the tcpmp don't start, but with the cooked rom it ran. I don't need wm 6.5 but if that is better no problem.

thanks for your help!

I hope my first thread is created at the good part of the forum
