[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nicelad_uk:
Totally agree. o2 really bend you over backwards on contracts for the iPhone. One thing I did with o2 was took out a Simplicity contract which is a rolling 30 day contact, had it for 3 months and then rang them up for a PAC code (had no intention of leaving though) and told them I was going to Vodafone for the true 7.2mb internet.

They offered me £15 of any contract I wanted with a free upgrade phone. Only problem was they only have a certain selection for upgrade. I got the Touch Pro for my brother, he seems happy with it. (this was 3 months ago)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Steve-C:
Oh :( I stupidly assumed that the iphones were on normal contracts!

Time to see how much Orange want to get me off their Everyday 50 contract and if I can get a deal for porting my o2 number over to them at the same time...2 contracts with only 1 wanting a new phone and 10 years of never upgrading might help
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SuperAdvan:
Unfortunately not mate, maybe this is something they will do later when sales continue (!) to slump.

If I were you I would dump Orange (correct me if I am wrong but there data packages are poor) and go with T-Mobile or Vodafone and get your phone from MPD, you can get it for next to free with a T-Mobile contract (and it comes unbranded) or for about £89 or so with Vodafone (but less minutes - 300 as opposed to 700! for £35 a month).

Thats most of the HTC range!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shingers5:
iphone 3g is locked to o2 and so is the new 3gs. the iphone 3g can be unlocked using ultrasn0w but the 3gs cannot be done as yet. iphone dev team have successfully unlocked it but the solution hasn't been made public yet! orange don't offer any value for money on any of their tariffs and o2 really try to screw you with the iphone contracts. even on pay and go their iphone tariffs suck! how dare anyone charge you £342.50 for a handset locked to a single provider!

this is a no brainer mate
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] doublecheese:
Are you sure about that ? 'cos I'm pretty sure a friend of mine is now using 3GS software on his first gen iPhone. He told me he used something like JAIL BREAK or something....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shingers5:
i am damned sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

there a 3 iphones mate ---------- iphone 2g(1st gen), 3G and latest 3GS. he is using firmware 3.0 on his 1st gen phone so he hasn't got a 3gs then has he!!!!! the 3.0 update is for all 3 iphones. the iphone 2G can be fully unlocked via various methods, the 3G via ultrasn0w but 3GS cannot be done! check out iphone.dev.blog if ya don't believe me. the iphone dev team has recently unlocked iphone 3GS using ultrasn0w but haven't release it to the public as yet! i do this for a living you see mate so its my job to be sure! there is no such thing as using 3GS software on iphone 1st gen. he has merely upgraded to firmware 3.0 and that is not the same as 3GS............
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] doublecheese:
I'm not an iPhone expert or something but I'm just telling what my friend is telling me.

I just called him, he reckons that he's using the latest iPhone software on his 1st gen iPhone.

I think he mentioned something like redsnow or something. I can make you speak to him if you like ...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shingers5:
mate using new firmware is not 3GS software. iphone 3GS is the newest iphone released. it runs totally different stuff with new features. redsnow is used to unlocked iphone 2G like your mates phone but it will only jailbreak 3G and currently not working with 3GS! don't care what your friend is saying as iphone 3GS software is not the same as upgrading firmware on 1st gen iphone and unlocking it! you cannot unlock iphone 3GS at min only 2G and 3G models. you cannot run 3GS software on 2G as different features on the new 3GS! go to www.iphone.dev.blog to see for yourself. they are the ones who release the iphone stuff.

I have been testing WM6.5 23001 build , and found that no one include this hot fix

Hotfix to disable the pop-up menu when slowly plugging in an AC or car charger for the HTC Touch Diamond

http://www.htc.com/au/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=0&dl_id=556

I extract the dll from the exe since the exe does not run in a cooked ROM

either copy to windows folder or include it in the kitchen and cook it will make it work
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Dom1n8tr1x:
Thanks for posting the Hotfix, luckily I only experienced the problem once so far with my current ROM.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dazza7111:
What if you quickly plug it in????

ps how do you extract from exe????????????
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] uccoffee:
I think no matter how quickly/slowly u plug it in a AC charger or a Car charger, the pop-up menu will still pop up with a stock msm7500usbfnhs.dll

I extract it using winrar, then read the setup xml, then rename the one of the files to a dll according to the xml.

Hi all,

My issue: sms forwarding function not working in "in box" folder and my dear sony ericsson customer center reply as below:

"Dear Mr. Vincent,

Thank you for contacting Sony Ericsson. With regards to your enquiry,

Regarding to your question, I’m so sorry for the mislead information provided to you before. Since the SMS style is conversation SMS on the Sony Ericsson X1 (Window Mobile 6.1 features), therefore it is unable to forward the SMS from the inbox. Your understand is highly appreciated!

Should you require any further assistance with your X1, please do not hesitate to contact us on our dedicated line.

For more information on our products and services, please feel free to visit our website at www.sonyericsson.com

Kind Regards,"

OK, I am using a Traditional Chinese ROM for X1 and I think the answer is "suxK". My friends using HTC HD, D2 are working properly on this forwarding ftn.

Hope the buddies here can give me some help on this.

Thanks

Vince
[XPERIA X1 General] Firefall!:
You talkin' bout manual or automatic forwarding? As for manual forwarding, you can simply disable conversation-style. If you wanna know how, ask. For automatic forwarding you will need a special application that does the trick for you.
[XPERIA X1 General] bengal cat:
I installed XperiaTweak V2 and disabled conversation style sms and can forward texts from the in box with ease. This is a very useful program which can be found by using the attached link.

[XPERIA X1 General] bharat4ever:
even in conversation style, open the conversation which contains the sms to be forwarded... when the conversation opens up, press the hardware "UP' key. This will highlight the last sms in the conversation with a light blue box. Press the hardware up key till you get to the sms which you wanna forward. Now you will find that the menu has forward and delete options enabled.
[XPERIA X1 General] chengvin:
Thanks for all your solution proprosal.

bharat4ever, I try your solution and it works, big thanks!!!

I think the sony guy should be re-train.

Nice solution from sony. Maybe they treat him the same way by misleading him about the features of the x1

Hi

I have outlook 2007 and vista and htc touch diamond i cant get my contacts on outlook when i connect the phone with usb, and i dont know how can import them from the phone to outlook.

can anyone help pls???
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] wilfmoralee:
When you first plug in the phone it brings up the Windows Mobile Centre on your PC, and asks if you want to set up the phone or just leave it as a 'guest' partnership. If you selected the latter you will not be able to sync without changing the settings of the sync option.

This can easily be done in either the Mobile Device Centre on the PC or on Activesync on your phone, but you need to say you wish to sync the phone, and then also say you wish to sync the contacts.

Hi guys,

I have HTC Touch GSM P3452, its touch screen not working for a last one week.I had did soft reset and Hard reset but no use.

I had read the Alignment problem fix thread but i can edit the registry in my phone using mobile registry editor(write access denied message, i had got).

how to make my touch screen work.Help me out soon...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Cyw00d:
If it is defect, you can replace your touchscreen for low costs. I paid 20 euro's for my new touchscreen. You also need an T6 torx to open your mobile.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] enigma1nz:
Get a new digitizer on eBay, fairly cheap and easy to replace. Can get one to match your housing color. Less than 20 Euro for sure.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] negaboys:
:)

thanks for reply back soon..

there is no way to recover my touch screen??
[Touch GSM ROM Development] negaboys:
any technical way to recover my touch screen, techies help me out...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Cyw00d:
I don't seem how you could 'repair' it. I think it is broken or not. Or the connecter is not in the right position. If so you must open up your mobile either way. I think it's best to just replace the touchscreen it also removes the scratches if you have those. And it's very cheap.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] negaboys:
thanks cywood.. its not broken, just it stops working..
[Touch GSM ROM Development] jagooch:
negaboys , the same thing just happened to me too. I run the tweaking applications here - doing the HD Tweak and Kaz TD2 instructions only. Then rebooted my AT&T Tilt. After the Titl started, the touch screen no longer worked. And when I went into the utilities to undo the changes I had made, but the applications require a touch for you to use them. :(

I am really stuck.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] praveen_y76:
digitizer

i thinks it is less effort and much easier to replace the touch screen. its called digitizer. if u r in india ull get it for rs300/-. changing it is extremely easy, just google and search for videos on htc screen replacement. it took me just 45 minutes to open my htc and change the screen.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] crapula512:
in your case, it will probably be fixed with a hard-reset.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mohitsapru:
use mymobiler using that u can control ur mobile thru ur computer google for it
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mohitsapru:
Hi Praveen,

from where u got the digitizer...? was it original?

mine also stopped working two days back. I am in chennai and just heard that HTC has opened a new service centre here so maybe i can try out my luck there.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mohitsapru:
could you please give the exact link where you have mentioned about it?

Thanks
[Touch GSM ROM Development] jagooch:
The hard reset fixed my problem. I also had corrupt files on my microSD card, so I formatted it as well.

Its amazing how many problems that look like hardware issues are actually software/file system issues.

For those who jumped right to "replace the screen" as a solution, I believe you need to rethink your troubleshooting strategy, as you'll convince people to spend time and money performing a fix action that doesn't work.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] jagooch:
That is a great program! I've heard of it before, but never thought I would need it. It looks useful for getting screen shots from your mobile device as well.

Thanks!

[Touch GSM ROM Development] salterlee:
Solution

Okay, I've just had this problem with an HTC Touch, and I think this works with any HTC that has a "digitizer" rather than an all-in-one touchscreen (I think newer phones have digitisers).

I'm not sure if this will always work, but I've just done it - sometimes the inactive touch screen is "broken" because the layers are stuck together (so the phone can't tell where the touch is, hence unresponsive). With mine, I looked at the screen side on and could see a kind of "oily" patch in the light.

The solution is to get masking/gaffa tape - the very sticky brown one. Stick it down on the screen/digitizer and then keep pulling it off - this pulls the layers from each other. I kept repeating this lots before it worked - and in the end I pulled the top layer completely off (I think you should pull from the top of the phone, as the layers need to be attached at the bottom of the screen/digitizer). Once it pulled away, I gently lay it back down (after panicking!!) and hey presto it started working again.

Good luck!

In settings choose >microdrive>format my microdrive, if I remenber clearly when the drive is not found there should be an option >find microdrive or something, choosing that option softreset the device and find the drive for you.

If that doesnt work perhaps WM5torage may find it for you and then you could format it from your computer (remenber to choose the right drive, you dont want to format the SD card.

other than that you could try pocket mechanic or similar programs.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] lakeman:
I would try the wm5stoage option first as doing the first will wipe all info on the drive.

cheers lakeman

also do a search for format options as there is an old thread that discusses this

in the screen that says format microdrive , click the down arrow and tap recover microdrive

It should prompt you to recover microdrive if it can't be found and warns that the data will be erased.

do a search in the athena forum for format microdrive and look for posts from eaglesteve
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] ronaldphl:
Sorry that I have ploughed throught posts to hunt for solution but still problem persist..

- WM5storage... Not able to detect the microdrive with or without WMDC

- Cardexport 3.12... The same

- setting\format microdrive.... only wm6 has the option of recovering the MD... so I tried.. but still.. not useful after the reset..

Sync with your pc via ActiveSYNC, click on Explore (on the pc Activesync), then My device, then if showed the Microdrive, if so click on it and it re-populates the directory. Don't know how serious your problem is but it worked for me.

Good luck.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] fitnessvip:
do you change sync settings?

if you do you should change it to option one.

if you don,t try this change from option 1 to 2 and again from 2 to 1.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] forcemaker:
Same problem... but solved!

Hello,

I just resetted my Ameo (Athena 100 with WM6 by T-Mobile, Germany) using the "Wipe device" function of "Sparus EveryWAN Remote Support Personal Edition" and in result I had neither access to the 8GB Microdrive nor to my 2GB MicroSD Card.

Both storage devices weren't shown in Sparus EveraWAN ... nor in WinCE Plugin for Total Commander, nor anyplace in the device itself (e.g. Memory settings, Explorer, ...)

The SD Card could be brought back by formatting it in an SD Card reader on my Win PC. The MD couldn't be formatted by the internal tools of the Athena. Neither a "secure delete" nor a factory default reset could help it.

I wanted to export the MD with WM5torage v1.90 but it even didn't start.

Solution:

I did as explained above: Control Panel>System>Format MicroDrive->"recover MicroDrive", followed the procedure (reboot and accepting the formatting).

The device rebooted, asked again to reformat, and then both my SD card and the MD returned back.

The point of data loss was no concern to me, because I just backed up all data and my intention WAS to RESET all storage.

Hope, nobody else needs this procedure, too.

Good luck! forcemaker
