[Hero, G2 Touch General] dipje:
I just had a look. I can go to my gmail settings, and there is a tab 'accounts'.

In there the first section is to 'add another email address you own'. You will have to enter your current POP email address, and it will send a verification of some sort to verify the address is yours.

After that you can make that email address as 'default', and set the option to always make mail seem to come from that address, even if the mail you are replying to was sent directly to your gmail account.

I reccon that if you set an email address as 'default' there, you phone (and other) applications will also use it.

Then the only thing to do is set your current POP account to forward mail directly to your gmail account. (Not MOVE mail, but forward / copy it).

Then you have a gmail account 'invisible' to the outside world. Setting up an android phone with a gmail account should be no problem :P

Hero will sync with Exchange out of the Box

Magic and G1 need an extra App
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bigbamboo5:
Exchange, yes - but what about Outlook? :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] dipje:
I think you better prepare that it DOES NOT sync with Outlook. I've read somewhere that some sort of 'htc sync' application will be bundled, but I've only read it once... so I wouldn't count on it. And I have no idea if that application would in fact sync with Outlook.

The Hero will sync mail with Exchange (contacts / calendar? I guess not, don't know) over-the-air, and it of course will sync with Google calendar / contacts /mail over-the-air.

So before I start using my Hero when it arrives, I will make sure first sync my current WinMo contact book to Outlook or another desktop application. Then I will place those contacts into my gmail account. Clean it all up... and only THEN will tell my Hero to use my gmail account :).

There are methods of syncing your Outlook with your Google Contacts I believe (3rd party apps, other solutions). So as long as your Hero is in contact with your Google Contacts, syncing that with Outlook will give you your result.

But I have to admit: I have no idea for certain. I personally don't care. I'm gonna fiddle to get my contacts and calendar in the phone once, and after it's set up I'm done. I don't use any Outlook even with my current WinMo phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Manolito75:
3rd parties app work well IF your employer allows them... I assume this is the reason why so many people are asking if syncing through outlook-activesync is possible!

Any 100% confirmations out there?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bigbamboo5:
Bingo! Looks like both are fine!

From the new Slashgear review; http://www.slashgear.com/htc-hero-review-2149880/

"...logging the Hero into a PC brings up the options to either treat it as a mass storage device or to launch HTC Sync. This latter app, available as a free download though only for Windows PCs, allows you to synchronize your Outlook or Windows Address Book (i.e. Outlook Express contacts) with the Hero, rather than using a wired ActiveSync connection.

Unfortunately HTC Sync doesn’t seemingly manage your calendar entries in the same way, which is a shame because the new Calendar app on the Hero is a generally pleasant way to get organized. It defaults to a month view (as does the large homescreen widget; the small version has a single line of the next upcoming appointment) but offers day and event-list views via the Menu button. There’s also a Calendars button, which allows you to switch between various different agenda sources: Outlook (wirelessly via ActiveSync) and any Google Calendars you might have. These can be set to all simultaneously display (with different color coding) or toggled off to only show particular agendas."
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Manolito75:
Txs a lot Big!

This burries my intention to buy the Hero until someone develops a full compatibility with activesync over USB or my employer changes his mind (hint: the latter is less likely).

Hello all,

I think i'm going to update my HTC Touch Diamond for the first time, with this rom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=517300

But if i did this, how can i go back to the original lastest rom?

Thx in advance,

Bye, Paul!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BenF1:
You would be able to get the original ROM of the HTC website.

I would personally recommend this ROM as you get much more free memory.

Ive only just started flashing aswell. Make sure you have HardSpl 1.40 before you flash ;)

Good luck,
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cdynu:

So after having a custom rom i can just use the original rom from HTC:

And get it back in it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BenF1:
Yes you will. But with the amount of custom ROM's out there I doubt you would want to go back to the custom ROM.

Hey i wonder if you could help me. I bought an Xda Orbit 2 Polaris (O2 UK) off a friend the other week and i there seems to be no service on the phone. When i try calling a friend the call ends straight away before it connects. The problem seems to be that the phone is locked i think!. I have read a few tutorials online and i dont know which one to use and how to do it basically because im a newbie. Could you please give me some information regarding how to unlock this mobile and get it up and running! Much appreciated if you could help me.

[Touch 3G General] DaM79:
hey there,

just found out that the touchflo media player is able to read m4a files. this filetype saves a lot of disc space and the files still have a good quality, at least for audiobooks.

but there is a problem. the order of the media files, even if tagged correctly etc, often appears wrong. i already tagged them again with Mp3tag v2.43, but still they appear in the wrong order. especially for audiobooks, this is unacceptable.

another thing is, that it seems as if it does not read the cover tag... no image is shown.

OR shall i clean the cache of the media player? if so, how can i do it?

thx in advance!
[Touch 3G General] DaM79:
Solved.

a) The cover.jpg has to be in the same folder (sometimes i am pretty dumb!)

b) Edit the tags manually, and then clean the device eg with SKTools.

This is for all the newbies, like me, who have just started making ROMs using NATALY's kitchen.

We usually don't use (or like) stuff like "Market Place" , "Widgets", "Windows Live" etc etc.

So here is the list of all the system packages that can be removed while making the ROM :

ADC

AUTOUPDATE

bronze (Required for Titanium)

BronzeNonEA (Required for Titanium)

CHome (Titanium)

Enterprise

Entertainment

IPSECVPN

Livesearch

MODEMLINK

NetCF

Office

OneNote

RemoteDesktopMobile

RingsAndAlerts

SampleMusic

Skybox

Skymarket

SQM

Transcriber

Themes

VoiceCOmmand

VoIP

VoIPOS

INTERNETSHARING

WelcomeCenter

WindowsLive

WindowsLiveIM

WMLiveSearchWidget

WMMoneyWidget

WMWeatherWidget

WMWidgets

DO NOT DISABLE "FWUPDATE". DIAMOND WON'T BOOT WITHOUT IT!

You can also remove :

LongPressEndButtonKey

FMRadio

I"ll keep updating the list of packages you can remove.

[The above list has been provided by "dickenz". Thanks man :)]

After removing all the above packages you will have 128mb free on main memory.

And the RAM utilization with Titanium [Basic dialer, Large Menu Off, Enhanced Notification off, Classis Lock] is 45% [after boot].

And RAM utilization without Titanium is 40-43% [after boot].
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donsalari:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] i2gh0st:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donsalari:
Thank you so much man.... :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donsalari:
Hey but from your list, which all components can i remove? (or can i remove all those mentioned in the list) ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donsalari:
If your diamond doesnt boot and is stuck at the windows flash screen then do the following :

Get into the boot loader (vol down + power)

Connected it to PC.

In the white band i you see USB.

And flash some stable ROM with "CustomRUU.exe" .
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dickenz:
You disabled some sys packages that you weren't meant to. That will cause the ROM not to boot. To clarify, disabling SYS packages for the most part will save you storage space on your main device but will NOT FREE UP RAM!

You can use customruu.exe to flash again as long as you see 'USB' on the bottom section of your boot loader as you have mentioned above. Just fix your ROM up, re-enable the SYS packages then recook it and go into the RELEASE_DIAMOND folder and run CustomRuu.exe once your new ROM is cooked.

If you have the latest version of lobsterdave's kitchen it uses 23009 which is an unoptimized build at this stage and will ALWAYS boot with a high RAM usage because it is unoptimized. Use the previous revision of the kitchen 23004 for an optimized build which will boot with much better RAM usage.

Personally, I disable the following SYS packages:

ADC

AUTOUPDATE

bronze (Required for Titanium)

BronzeNonEA (Required for Titanium)

CHome (Titanium)

Enterprise

Entertainment

IPSECVPN

Livesearch

MODEMLINK

NetCF

Office

OneNote

RemoteDesktopMobile

RingsAndAlerts

SampleMusic

Skybox

Skymarket

SQM

Transcriber

VoiceCOmmand

VoIP

VoIPOS

WelcomeCenter

WindowsLive

WindowsLiveIM

WMLiveSearchWidget

WMMoneyWidget

WMWeatherWidget

WMWidgets

That's my list of DISABLED sys packages. And none of them being disabled causes the phone not to boot.

[Touch HD General] tarmacmaster:
Hi there,

I am confronted with a big issue which affects my ability to place or even receive calls: I cannot connect my HTC HD on the Orange Network anymore.

Two weeks ago I was on the road using TomTom and suddenly Windows Mobile told me that the distant server was disconnected and that I was not connect to the network anymore. Each time I am trying to get a connection, I can see that the mobile detects a network, tries to register (I even can see the Edge icon and some network bars) but always fall back to the 'not connected' icon.

The weird thing is that the mobile detects all the networks it is intended to: Orange, Bouygues and SFR (the three main operators).

Since that day, I have tried everything to re connect the mobile on Orange network but nothing was successfull:

- many and many reboots of the mobile,

- I have suppressed the Orange network connection in the connection wizard and then re created it.

- I have switched the network connection to manual and tried to connect manually: as for auto mode, it displays the following message:

"cannot connect to the selected network. Choose another network or stop you data connection and try again"

- I have switched the band mode from auto to "GSM (900+1800)"

- I have done hard resets

- I have changed the ROM two times: the first one for an up to date Mia and the second time for a Rhodyum 1.1 (the one I am using now).

- I have called the hotline to check if the problem is coming from their devices ; apparently not the case

- I have put my SIM card on another mobile and its working. A different SIM on my HD is not working. I even have changed my SIM card !

I am really desperate now because I do not know where the problem could come from. Should I do something else ? How can I be sure that it comes from my mobile ?

Thank you for your help :(

[Touch HD General] Olipro:
OK, here's the short answer:

your phone's a nicked device and it's on the IMEI blacklist.

the other possibility is that the contract didn't get paid off so the provider blocked it because of that.

I'm generally always right on this - go get a CheckMEND report from here: http://www.checkmend.com/uk/public/check_start

Your IMEI goes in the Identifier box.

Hi i got the same story but i was using the phone for 7 months and after one day no service... how is that possible? and how i can sort it out? i bought it on ebay its possible that as you sayed contract is not payed... but what i can do? if the imei its black listed if i change imei will unblock the phone? phone had simlock on orange now iam using o2 i think after or now when i upload new rom imei changed for extra 2 digitals 01... i tryed

HTC imei Update Wizard the same problem cominication... any advice? servis will help?

i upload rom oficial one mayby i will nee to upload diferent one?
[Touch HD General] alexpetrucci:
the problem is if this "legitimate" ebay seller, sold it to you before the contract was paid to orange, legally the phone belongs to orange, therefore you've bought stolen goods. Hope you used Paypal, they might offer some protection.

what about if i was using phone for half year and everything was ok and not its happen?

Hi,

Since a long time on xda-dev, but my 1st real post as I don't find any way to restart my P4350.

It's an unbranded herald which is stuck on the bootloader screen.

IPL 0.83.1001

SPL 5.04.0000 (maybe a wrong SPL)

When I run RUU, I can have INVALID MODEL ID (Error 244) or UPDATE ERROR (Error 270).

I cannot run Herald USPL for CID unlock, as the phone doesn't start.

What should I do ?

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wazmo:
Greetings:

Over the years I've owned many HTC devices and have always used them as a media player as its main secondary function, usually with CorePlayer as my main software. The one thing I noticed was that when it came to playback, all of my non-Dream phones were relatively quiet (very low noise/artifacts) when it came to music playback.

Ever since I got the G1 (running stock, no mods) I've noticed that there's a huge difference in the audio section-when using the wired adapter, I get lots of noise/artifacts (very noticeable with low playback volume) and I get an incredible amount of GSM chatter (which was rare in my other devices.)

Anyone else noticed this? Any fixes/workarounds? (I'm waiting for the Android port of CorePlayer, maybe that might fix some of the quality issues>)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoBlade:
Audio quality is something that the G1 lacks in my opinion right out of the box, compared to other mobile phones. If you have a rooted mobile though, I would have a look at the Meltus Audio mod (had a look at my signature).

The new V6 version of the audio mod increases audio, clarity and adds a bit of bass :P
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukekirstein:
I've noticed it a lot as well. Unfortunately, this has been both out of the box (stock) and rooted with any firmware whatsoever. It's a lot more obvious in my Bose earbuds, since they're noise-canceling, but it's unavoidable all the same.

I haven't tried Meltus's full app yet, just the lite version on the website, but as we speak, I'm on the Market buying it :]. But I've heard it's nothing but amazing, so I would give that a shot too.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blueheeler:
Along the same lines, when ripping CDs or converting audio files, what would the ideal bitrate be for use with stock headphones?

The reason I ask is I'm under the impression that if we encode at too high of a bitrate, it will do nothing to increase the sound quality but will suck up more of our limited phone memory (not sdcard space, but useable memory for running apps). Please correct me if I'm wrong about that.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wazmo:
I use AAC-HE exclusively on phones-I find that using a 56 kbps conversion does a decent job regardless of the headset.

I have no knowledge of which encoding methods causes the greatest impact to running memory usage.
