Ok fellas, I searched and i found many apps that help you, if (God forbid) you lose your phone. They are all great and do the job.

-If you use Outlook you can wipe all info on your phone etc...

But.... Wouldn't it be nice if we had a web based app that could show the position of your phone. Similar to the fruity one. (threw up a little on my keyb sorry)

Thanks and greets to all.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] turael:
i'd also be interested in this.

like your sig pic btw.

I have been trying to change the voicemail number on my unlocked s620, but all I get is "reserved".

Any ways around it?
[HTC Excalibur] jeonatl3:
It seems OK for me in Settings > Call Options > Voice Mail Number and just enter a different phone number there :-)
[HTC Excalibur] Trig8:
Thanks! It worked!

I am new to WM smartphones as you probably would guess....

Can the original Diamond ROM with touchFLO 3D installed in the LG KS20 Device?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] BenF1:
Highly doubt it.

Diamond has different size and resolution screen for a start
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] realbigfans:
owh.. i c.. as u say.. that diamond rom can't b installed in the LG KS20.. it makes the screen will have a different display.. right? huh.. poor me.. :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anthony82:
anyone knows how it's possible to get the gprs connection automatically closed after X secs/mins?

I've already tried this one:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings\

SuspendResume = GPRS_bye_if_device_off

CacheTime = xxx (where xxx are seconds before auto disconnect, for me the best value is 60)

and this one:

http://www.gb-soft.cz/xdaii/product_gprs-umts_tweak_wm61_diamond.htm

but no success...

there are only solutions for wm5 and wm6...but not for wm6.5.... :(

any ideas?

tnx.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scar45:
I've tried this Reghack on my Xperia R3AA 6.1 ROM, but it doesn't seem like I have success either. I'm trying to figure it out, because when I initiate the connection myself, it seems to disconnect properly, but if another program opens the connection while in standby, it seems to always stay open.

This issue started happening for me after installing S2U2 v2.01, which seems to keep the device from entering TRUE standby mode (power savings, not just screen off). A_C is aware as I PM'ed him, because this never used to happen with S2U2 prior to the recently released v2.

I'm still trying to test, but this problem is usually related to some background process keeping the CPU going, so your device uptime never pauses (check with AE Button+, Uptime). I feel like I'm so close to getting the *perfect* setup on my phone, but this battery issue is the one thing holding me back right now...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anthony82:
I can confirm the s2u2 issue, so for the moment I think I'll try to get back to v1...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anthony82:
I've the same issue with wm6.5 slide to unlock screen...

without any screen locker the automatic disconnection seems to work fine.

now I try with s2u2 v1
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] player911:
I don't use S2U2 or the default Windows Lock screen, yet my data connection stays open all the time.

The best solution I came up with was this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Phone]
"Flags2"=dword:A

That disabled the data connection while pressing END on the homescreen. Saves time instead of launching the connection managers to end it.

It's annoying and has to eat battery.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] capo56:
Is there any auto solution of disconnecting on WM6.5?

I did not find any yet :/
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] capo56:
still nothing? :confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Guilherme Peixoto:
use de free bandswitch 1.2.any...

it´s great program.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Arpi13:
I have a solution that works for me:

HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Planner\Settings\

SuspendResume = just delete everything, leave it blank

CacheTime = xxx (where xxx are seconds before auto disconnect, for me the best value is 60)

Restart your phone.

I hope it will work for everybody!

PS. I have a GSmart S1205
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luchoster:
Hello everyone!

So basically what I wanna do its rooting my phone I'm on CRB43 right now, I already root another phone b4 cupcake update, my questions is what do I have to do to root this one? I'm trying to put Hero Rom in it.

Thank u in advance.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcrs:
if you have already had experience in rooting a phone, then what's stopping you on rooting this one?

if you follow the rooting guide, you will be fine. and if you follow the thread about the hero rom you want, you will be fine. there are certain things you have to do to get hero but those guides will have all that explain within their respective threads.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luchoster:
Yeah ur right, nothing is stopping me from rooting this one, but my question is, the other phone was the. RC33 build so I had to downgrade to RC29 to gain root, now, do I have to do the same for this one? CRB43? Or how do I gain root on this one? Thnx
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcrs:
in order to gain root in any of the releases you have to downgrade to RC29 regardless
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luchoster:
Alright, that's what I needed to know, thank u so much
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luchoster:
alright, so everything work out well, i think.

i got all done, now i just have a problem. I got the Hero ROM and when the phone starts, i get a loop in the HTC screen...... what can i do???
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ths_:
I had my phone looping for some reason that escapes me right now, I just installed Dude's 1.5 Cupcake and then went to SuperHero v2, it launched just fine but was a bit slow. I just got finished installing JACHero 1.8v4 and it is by far the best Hero build.

Also, on SuperHero V2 my phone took a looong time to boot up.
[XPERIA X1 General] johnsten:
Since 2 days i have internal speaker problems.

If i call or recieve a call, i can't hear people talking but they can hear me. The external speaker is still working. Sometimes it helps if i restart my xperia.

There is no icon for the headphones on the display.

I've tried different roms from itje but still the same problem.

Does anyone know if there is a original rom for kpn (dutch)? So i can try if this will work.

Or is anyone known with this problem?

Thanks in advance.
[XPERIA X1 General] johnsten:
Does anyone know if there is a original rom for kpn ??????
[XPERIA X1 General] Jasand:
There was no headphone icon displayed on my screen but plugging in the headphones and out several times sorted this same issue for me.

As for roms I have no idea.
[XPERIA X1 General] johnsten:
Tried that already but doesn't seem to help
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pros21:
Can someone help me please, I messed up big time, I accidentally installed ROM for CDMA version onto my GPRS phone. Is there anyway I can get it working again, or this is it? Now all it said on the boot screen is DIAMONDTOUCH, no version # or anything and it just stuck there. Please, any help is appreciated.

Thank
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NotATreoFan:
As long as you didn't flash a CDMA ROM that also contains a Radio, then you can manually enter bootloader, connect it to your PC, and flash a GSM ROM back to it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pros21:
How would I manually enter bootloader?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NotATreoFan:
Hold VolDown, and reset/power on the phone. After a few seconds, you should see a tri-color screen. Plug in the USB cable, flash a GSM ROM.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pros21:
I tried that, but the computer does not detect the phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] D'rath:
No ActiveSync but the RomUtility for update run anyway ^^ Flash new ROM ;)

D'rath
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] NotATreoFan:
Enter the bootloader with the cable disconnected. You should see "Serial" towards the bottom of the screen. Now plug in the USB cable. If you see "USB" appear, then you are good to go. Just start the ROM Update Utility, and let it run.

[Wing, P4350 General] GIGZ1971:
I love this interface, is there any software developers that would be willing to pick this project back up. I know on thewingster website he said that support has been dropped, i think that i would be nice for someone to continue support for it.
[Wing, P4350 General] ivanmmj:
Only because it was upgraded to 2.0.

It's up to 2.1 now.

And it's not open source, so developers will not be able to pick it up unless they release the code.

http://www.pointui.com/
[Wing, P4350 General] ace10134:
Yea, it was "upgraded" to 2.0 version, but the 2.0 version is completely different.

I personally perferred the classic 1.0 version, that version that I have on my Wingster site. It was more of an interface "replacement". I bet lots of other people perferred the classic version too. I wish we could develop it, but it's probably not possible :(
[Wing, P4350 General] unknown123456:
+1 as well. I've used that for months before I switch to Manila. TTran did a great job with the PointUi.
[Wing, P4350 General] ivanmmj:
Ttran didn't make PointUI. He just placed it in a ROM. ^_^

You're right though, PointUI 1.x was more like a full GUI replacement, instead of just a partial gui replacement. But there are a lot of addons for 2.x, too, as well as skins, to expand it.
[Wing, P4350 General] unknown123456:
Yeah, I should of been more specific. That's what I meant.
[Wing, P4350 General] musada:
Ok, so the screen is broken and i dont really feel like payin 130 toasurion for a phone thats now being sold for like $50 bucks. I decided to go ahead and get a g1. I was wondering if there is a way for me to view my contacts via my desktop pc. I am using vista. I'd also like to retrieve the notes i made on the wing as well
[General Topics] Cassetti:
Just curious. Since you are able to connect phone to computer and treat SD card as an external drive. Wouldn't it be possible to install some sort of photo album software on the phone to execute from windows?

I hate organizing my photos, I'd like to keep them contained in one spot. I don't take many pictures but I hate trying to organize my albums into folders manually.

What software would everyone suggest as well for a simple photo album manger?

[Shift General] mustking:
I recently got the HTC Shift and as we all know there is no build in DVD Super multi in it. I bought a Sony DVD Super multi from my friend and after connecting it to the USB port on the HTC. It detect the drive perfectly but whenever i try to run any CD or DVD the icon disappears from the My computer. I also tested connecting this Sony drive to my desktop and it is working fine there.??? any idea. i want to buy a new LD DVD Drive but not sure if it is going to work or not.

Solution: I purchased a new LG DVD Super multi that came with the external USB connector to give power to the DVD and as i tell i connected it to my desktop to give power through the USB to the DVD Super multi and finally it is working now and i am installing the WIN 7 now!!!!!!! HURRA PARTY TIME!!!!!!!!
[Shift General] Caid444:
Not enough power.

As far as I understand, there's not enough power going through the usb hub to power the dvd drive. You need an external power supply.

If you're using the hub/lan device that came with the shift, there's a mini usb jack in there which can take a 5v current. That means that you need to get a power adapter that has a usb mini output. I use my Touch HD charger to power the hub if there's anything that normally needs more power from the shift.

I hope that helps.

Caid.

[Shift General] N_M_S:
I faced the same problem when connecting two ext. HDD or flash USBs but I never thought of the mini USB powering idea...:cool:
[Shift General] mustking:
Ok, i got the cable that can give power from the USB port. I am planning to give the power to the DVD rom from my desktop.... is this may help?
[Shift General] joy.d:
Hi, I solved same Problem with external USB-HDD and external USB-DVD with an external USB Hub that has a Power Supply.

But so, there is not every time a external CDROM/USB-HDD or Power Supply on my travel sides, so I modify a USB-Stick with 4GB Space to boot and install Windows from them..

see the small and easy programm:

winsetupfromusb

http://www.msfn.org/board/install-USB-WinSetupF-t120444.html

if you have little time more, you can insert all needed drivers before you

make winsetupfromusb with Nlite...

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] cndctrdj:
did a search but couldnt find muc of anything. my mothers iphone shows who left each voicemail time and date of each and lets you select wich ones to listen to.

i was looking for a way to do this on my touch pro but couldnt figure it out. both on att so it should be available to us all
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] thesilentnight:
Check out youmail.com....i think this app will be exactly what you are looking for
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fone_fanatic:
and the term is visual voicemail. search for that and you'll get better results.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] cndctrdj:
thank you both ill check them out
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AllTheWay:
Agreed YouMail is awesome. You can use the free service but I gladly pay the 19.99 for the year for this great service. Well worth it.
[XPERIA X1 General] Zhariak:
So I just received my X1a Xperia in North America from expansys.ca

I have to say it's not what I thought it was going to be for $1,000 dollars.

As soon as I got it, noticed the battery and the charger were removed from their bags.

The actual LCD (viewable LCD display) is slanted on the one side... (The gap between the straight peice of plastc horizontally and the viewable section of the screen is greater on the right side than the left... Kinda miffed about this, it's small but Im neurotic and notice these things...)

The back cover of the phone (not the battery cover) was higher and sharp, and not level wiht the battery covery. After closer inspection, I pushed on it, and it snapped into place (it wasn't fully snapped on during manufactoring I guess).

The Camera button doesn't feel secure, and the optic pad for scrolling is very loose and I'm wondering if it is going to fall off...

THANKFULLY the unit has no cracks, hahaha. Kinda also miffed about the sliding. I'm getting scared how easy it is to pull and have the top seperate from the bottom....

Anyone else have any of these issues? For 1,000 bucks I was expecting a bit more. I thought it may have been a re-pack from expansys, but the factory screen protect was on waiting to be pealed off, and when I started the phone it started the initial WM config stuff.

Is there any way to find out how long the phone has been powered on?
[XPERIA X1 General] VNMenIeu:
why are you buy an X1a for 1 Grand? That's ridiculous.
[XPERIA X1 General] 31073:
why not return it, and get it from buy.com for $720 i think you can even get it at sonystyle.com for $799.

I got my x1a from buy.com and had no problems.
[XPERIA X1 General] alias_neo:
Well

Well, it is possible to check in the registry how many power cycles the phone has had. However, this is only accurate if the firmware has not been reflashed since. I think (but not sure) that even a hard reset will reset this effectively rendering this method practically useless. I have noticed it when looking through with SkTools.

The fact the screen protector is on means nothing about the phone being factory, the screen or covering could easily have been replaced if it's a reconditioned.

This sounds nothing like the real build quality of the Xperia. I'm a perfectionist myself and would notice these problems. My touchpad/scrollpad is perfectly secure, the slide is tight, screen is perfectly aligned, and I mean perfectly. The camera button should have no more than half a millimetre play from front to back when looking at the screen, and none in any other direction, even with a lot of use that is the current condition of mine.

Sounds to me like your phone has been rebuilt or you've been very very unlucky.

That being said, expect the keyboard to become a problem after a couple of weeks, but otherwise it's an amazing phone.
[XPERIA X1 General] Blighter86:
Too bad.

I bought mine 3 weeks ago for less than $550 brand new @ Finland.

Optic pad seems loose on my xperia too.
[XPERIA X1 General] Zhariak:
As for the price. The X1a are more pricey than the X1i due.

I needed the X1a to make sure HSDPA works in North America... I don't really care about the price anyways, I shopped around for an X1a and I trust (or atleast trusted Expansys).

I sent an e-mail off to Expansys to find out if it was B-stock or a repack, I'm waiting to hear from them.

I'm wondering if the battery and the charger were removed from their sealed plastic bags because they needed to test them in another device or something...

The only REAL big piss off is the screen... Even though it's a small issue, the blank gap between end of the display and the plastic peice where the buttons start, the right side is 1/16ths of an inch bigger on the right side, compared to the left side. I'm just wondering if a component of the screen is damaged or misaligned... I don't want it to start bending after a while.

I'm concerned about the warranty too as I'm in Canada. I have 15 days to send it back (at my own expense), I'm not to sure if Sony would warranty a product they don't sell in my country...
[XPERIA X1 General] THESpideyWVU:
Start the return process right away. There's no reason for you to keep that phone with the condition you received it in.
[XPERIA X1 General] oTToToTenTanz:
Well, not YET. Mine got cracks at the stylus hole when I had it for 4 to 6 weeks. Good luck and you should really return it before it is too late =P
[XPERIA X1 General] Zhariak:
Ok, soo quick question...

Ive had 10+ windows mobile devices in my life. Everytime I turn them on for the first time (brand new), it ALWAYS asks you to align the touchscreen.....

The Xperia booted up and had confiuration questions, but what's odd is that it didn't ask me to align the touchscreen....

Does anyone know if the X1a prompted them to align the touchscreen when they first unboxed and powered it up?

Also, anyone know the registry key for turn on and offs?
[XPERIA X1 General] jhendra:
Yes it should ask you to align the touch screen for the first time. Does the phone look like it's been used??? Just return it...I think Rogers is releasing the X1 for $299 w/ 3 year contract...no?

I bought my X1i for $400 brand new :D
[XPERIA X1 General] achmed20:
1k?

rofl ... i paid 100€ :D

u can get it here for 350€ new.

wanna buy mine? 800 Bucks :D
[XPERIA X1 General] Zhariak:
Wow, so I'm an idiot. It has been powered on...

I wasn't promtped for a touchscreen alignment, AND looking at Call history, 333 was dialed once a few days ago, and 222 has been dialed twice a few days ago. All calls lasted for 30 seconds to 2 minutes...

Anyone know what 333 or 222 could be?
[XPERIA X1 General] Zhariak:
By the way, I want to thank everyone for their help... These forums r0x0r! haha

Anyone know howto reset the phone (all my exchange information is entered), I'm returning it for a new unit...
[XPERIA X1 General] N0r0:
Just press the two silver keys and simultaneously/after that the Key hidden by the stylus [easily pull out the stylus and put it into the hole in order to press the soft-reset button] ...

Or you turn on youzr device, go to Settings/System/Clear Storage ... enter '1234' and press 'OK'

Kind Regards N0r0
[XPERIA X1 General] jhendra:
To hard reset:

Hold the two silver keys (under the screen) then press the power button slightly (no more than a second!).
[XPERIA X1 General] xperiance:
True, but even at a US Sony Style store the price is $799 US, or $920 CAD. And it can be purchased at other stores new in box for less than that.

As for the warranty, for the X1, Sony will honor the warranty anywhere in the world if you can provide a valid receipt. I called before purchasing my X1i for here in the states.
[XPERIA X1 General] orelsi:
What's with the hater congregation here? If you don't like it, go sell it and be done with it. No need to spam....
[XPERIA X1 General] souljaboy:
nice , mine was used for 360

1 grand is just a FRAUD
[XPERIA X1 General] Zhariak:
Well, that comment about Sony providing warranty service anywhere in the world with a valid receipt is awesome!

I remember once I had to get warranty work done on my Motorola MPX220, and they just wouldn't do it even though it was brand new, hahaha...

I ordered another one, and FedEx is picking up the problem one tomorrow morning. :)

Super stoked to have another "unboxing" haha. Return department at Expansys even said they would check the stock before shipping to make sure it doesn't have any damage to the box and stuff :)
[XPERIA X1 General] DatDereX1:
sounds like you got ripped off bro
[XPERIA X1 General] gundamboy:
Zhariak, returning it is the best option. Rogers will carry the X1a in a few months, so patience is key.
[XPERIA X1 General] azian_advanced:
yeah, i've had my x1a since november. I paid over $1000 CDN as I had to drive to the US to get it ($799 USD + $50 USD tax + exchange to CDN + $80 CDN customs + $30 fuel to drive). I bought it off sonystyle USA.

i'm thinking of getting another one when Rogers releases theirs. It should be sometime in July or August at the latest. I believe Rogers will get the black version only iirc (i have the silver one). either way, I'd much rather sign up on a 2yr contract and get the phone for much less, then sell it to make some profit and the profit to go back into the account as credit.
[XPERIA X1 General] d4ftpuNK:
they are already carrying it.

http://www.rogers.com/web/Rogers.po...tId_Detailed=X1BLKREN&_pageLabel=WRLS_BuyFlow
[XPERIA X1 General] sonus:
Wow, 1000? I bought my X1a for around $650 from Dell using google'd promo codes and such. Sony offers it for $799, Fry's offers it for $720, BestBuy offers it for $799 how did you end up with that price? When it is easily available for less everywhere?
[XPERIA X1 General] Zhariak:
Keep in mind I'm in Canada...

The phone came out to 950 or something (i just say a grand cuz its easy)...

Keep in mind the currency differences between USD and CAD... lol

Another thing, I NEVER purchase phones from providers, they are always locked down, and recently I had issues testing code on a Samsung Jack from Fido...

and I hate contracts, lol.
[XPERIA X1 General] madchild1:
CANCEL YOUR ORDER!!

You can get the X1A from Rogers for $599 CDN plus tax and free shipping (no contract).

I just ordered mine...
[XPERIA X1 General] Zhariak:
I'm not getting the phone from rogers...

It will be locked, AND the phone will be badged with Rogers, and also have all the rogers software and rogers limitions on the device...

Can't used a locked down device.
