that feature has never been supported by pocket outlook, nor the PC version of Outlook. ALthough the PC version finally gave the user the ability to create reminders based upon new email into a folder or email specifics. Likewise, PC version of Outlook will not give reminders on flagged items that are not in the inbox and you used to have to use an Outlook plugin to get to do that.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] squa89:
I can definitely do this in the PC version of outlook with the built-in Desktop Alerts. It seems like it would be such a simple and useful piece of functionality to implement in WM. Anyone else heard of a good way to do this, especially in WM 6.5?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] joex51:
THe only solution I have found for this, that does not require a second today screen or closing down TF3D is a #rd party app called watch flag.

Here is the home page http://www.watchflag.com/

I used it with WM6.1, it did the job, I found the interface to be a bit clunky, and did not woirk entirely the way I wanted.

That is probably my fault becaue I could not get it to notify me on specific subfolders, I could only make it notify me on all subfolders.

In the programs defense it was over a year ago and has had revisions since then.

The other issues are the program is not free, but has a two week trial and while TF3D can be running , i think it just has regular on screen messages and does not integrate with TF3D message notifications.

Like i said I have not used it in a Year.

I recently bricked my G1 (flashed radio after SPL, silly me), and I'm considering buying one with a cracked screen. I have no problem taking and it apart and what so, but if I were to place the screen of the bricked g1 on that of the cracked one...would this work? I don't think the bricking has anything to do with the screen, but I just want to make sure with this forum before I go ahead and purchase a G1 with a cracked screen.

I'm hoping not to go over $50, maybe a bit over with shipping. How much are you hoping to get for it? Also what color is it? It really doesn't matter, because mine is white, and I can replace just the screen, but it's easier to replace it with the casing. Let me know, thanks.

WAIT!!!

How bricked is bricked... what did you do, and what does it do now?

90% of "Bricked" phones are not really bricked....

Read through all of the "Bricked" threads before you attempt to "Break" your phone to fix it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nasman1993:
Sir I'm positive my G1 is bricked. I can't get into bootloader or recovery menu, none of the button commands work except for trackball + power, which turns on the blue light at the top, and no one knows what that's for.

Like I said, I was preparing my G1 to install SuperHero V2. I flashed the radio after the SPL, thus bricking my G1. It hangs at the first G1 splash screen. I've also read through plenty of bricked threads.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chevycowboyusa:
Bricked

If you are stuck at the G1 screen...

Press (at the same time) the end + menu + call buttons.

without releasing them, slide your finger from the call (green phone) button to the home button. release the menu button so you are holding the home and end key, the phone should vibrate. realease all buttons and the phone should go into recovery mode.

Let me know how it goes!

Good evening i would appreciate to be informed

on the whereabouts to download the so-called unlock

code of the cooked 6.1 Rom by FixinOver 3.3 for HTC.

I fail to understand the authors intention to include such

an invasive demand on such an artwork as this ROM is...

but, notwithstandingly, i ask him or some kind member of

thishere site to provide me a link to this "unlocking" code.

Thanking for the possible attention.

Hello,

I was using Mighty Rom 5 and my hardware keyboard just stopped working totally.. I did a hard reset and had the same issue.. Re-flashed the phone and its working good again, no more keyboard issues.

Now the problem is when I type in a name in the TO: feild, it won't auto populate the perons i'm trying to get to any more.

For example I would type out Der and at the bottom of my scree it would say derek s., i could click on that name and it would fill out his number. Now i have to click the to field and select the name that way.

i've tired turning on the predictive text, auto-correct, suggest new words (none of them will work even in texts).. I've messed with other options as well, nothing works.

The odd thing is I used to be able to hit FN-spacebar and get T9 menu, doesn't work anymore either. Maybe part of the new rom update.

suggestions?

On thing I noticed is that when I go to settings and personal, input options, I only have 4 options, Keyboard, block recognizer, fingerkeyb(i installed that one) and letter recognizer.. I don't have the full qwerty option or the others..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] crxsi420:
well after flashing the phone, going back to stock and trying everthing else I can think of, I found a fix.

Take a hammer, smash the phone, get the new palm.

Thats the last HTC phone I will evey buy.. I replaced my mogul 3 times, and i'm on my 4th HTC Touch Pro (all hardware keybaord issues, or this software crap).

HTC can suck my D***

I searched but only found people having trouble mounting their cards. Ever since I partitioned my 8 gig class 6 card, my computer won't recognize the FAT32 partition. It reads it when I mount in with my G1, but I'd really like to be able to use it with the card reader again. Has anyone else had this problem?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b0ricuaguerrero:
try a system restore. i did that when my computer stop reading my card. had no problems since
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigamrts:
here's the scoop some sdcard readers do not read the high capacity cards well.

i have 2 pc's with sdcard readers one cant read any class 4 or 6 devices after formatting to fat32 my other which is newer read all cards no matter what parttion is on it. if you have the 1 gig card that came with the g1 that will work fine for flashing devices.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sino8r:
Format your card. That should fix your issue. Be sure and copy what folders you can, to back up.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigamrts:
that's kinda a hard one since the sdcard reader won't read the card and formatting through android still causes the issue it's the sdcard reader i've had this issue and using a different reader fixed it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sino8r:
Ah, good to hear! I thought it was just one partition that was missing. I had one really bad issue with a corupted sd card that won't read. The sd reader was good but claimed the card was not there. After reinserting and clicking quick format about 50 times, the pc finally recognized the dead card and formated it. After that, no major issues since. This was with my old HTC Wizard. Old mini sd card. I love the micros but are kinda hard to handle (literally) and mobile phones have finally settled on one format (used to be a combo of mini and full size sd and the occasional micro (newer) ). Plus, brand name matters somewhat... sansdisk is pretty good. Pny is also pretty good for a cheaper brand. Class also matters now which is kind of odd but makes sense. Kind of like hard drive read/write speed. Tech is always changing and you can get left in the dust after 6 month of no research. Fun though... will always be my hobby and my job foremost. Sorry for long-winded reply... lol
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code72:
Hi, i have a noob question:

If i'm on cyanogen 3.6 (apps 2 sd) with hero theme and i do a nandroid backup and after i flash my g1 with another rom, Jachero for example, i'll have all my apps because they are on sd;

Now, if i restore my backup, my g1 returns with cyanogen and hero theme? Or must i before flash cyanogen and hero theme and after restore my backup?

I hope you understand what i ask, sorry for my english.

Thanks for help.

Andrea
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alritewhadeva:
Yup. You will have cyanogen with hero back after restoring the backup :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code72:
:) Perfect

and... if i do also a nandroid backup in my actual situation (jachero), i'll have 2 backups and i can switch between 2 roms in a few minutes? (putting in nandroid backup folder only the right backup) Is it right?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alritewhadeva:
Yup correct once again! :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code72:
:) F A N T A S T I C :)

Thanks for your help, i think it's a great thing! Is it an "only for emergence" operation or can i do when i want with no risks?

Another thing that i don't know is if must i delete swapfile.swp before restore nandroid with another rom. (because i don't really know what is it for :))
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alritewhadeva:
The swapfile.swp is for swapper which speeds up hero and other ROMS. It's like an extra bit of RAM. Nandroid isn't really a "in case of Emergency" thing, you can use it whenever you want :) I suggest using Cyanogen's recovery 1.3.1 to easily create Nandroid backups and to restore all from your phone :D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code72:
Yes, i'm using Cyanogen's recovery 1.3.1 and tried 2 times ( Jachero => Cyanogen => Jachero) and works fawlessy, it's all like it was :)

Thank you very much for your help,

Hey guys the G1 data plan is getting too expensive for me and I'm planning to cancel soon. After I call in and cancel, how can I get my G1 to stop trying to access the internet unless its Wifi? Or once I cancel I won't have to worry about this?

I also heard a rumor about changing the APN settings so you can still have and use the internet? Is this true?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigamrts:
no real way to stop the phone from accessing the web since even in the background it sends packets of information. that's just how the phone works that's why you need the data plan for this phone.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tinyaznboi:
i want to cancel the plan cause my sis is paying for mine and i dont want her paying 300$+ a year on me. but i dont want to be charged after i cancel the plan cause my g1 is still accessing the internet. Anyways to prevent it from accessing the internet?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigamrts:
i just said no there is no way to to shut off the internet due to the fact that the phone requires you to have a google account to run it even if you flash a adp build and skip the logon proceedure the phone still access the web in the background without you knowledge you will still get billed for data charges at t mobs data rate which i think is 25 to 50 cents per meg used.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bittermormon:
disable auto sync

if you disable auto sync you wont be accessing the internet much (assuming you don't have a ton of news widgets or something) then sync when you're connected to wifi (toggle settings works well for this)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigamrts:
the problem is even with auto sync off the phone still polls the internet in the background for updates and other things you could remove every internet reliant app off your phone and it still polls the internet it just the way android is designed he want to stop all internet traffic which is impossible without hacking the rom beyond what we do or pulling out the sim. even google maps requires to poll the internet in the background without him even turning it on. it's just impossible to stop it completely.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultra spikey:
Install APNdroid.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qrohlf:
Easiest, simplest, most reliable way: Go into settings>wireless controls>Mobile Networks>Access Point names, then click on each one and hit menu then delete. You will also need to finangle with tmobile through their customer service number in order to get them to cancel 3g for your G1 (they have some kind of a policy that's supposed to mean that you have to have an unlimited data plan with the G1, but if you're patient with them they'll let you cancel and just have voice.)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rk0:
Even easier way. Download Toggle Data from market. That's what I've been using since I cancelled my plan. No more data in the background, so my battery life is longer. Sometimes my phone goes like 2-3 days without charge. (Of course without using wifi)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rigamrts:
apns not only control how the phone connects to the internet it also handles how it connects to make calls which is also how it connect to edge/3g. so see the conundrum we have here removing all apns also kills making calls.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nasman1993:
Before I bricked my G1, (I don't have a data plan) I just went to the T-Mobile store and told the guy what I could do to stop the internet. He just changed some kind of port number and stopped the internet so I don't get charged.

APN Droid only kills the data.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saiboogu:
No, the APN controls cellular data (internet and MMS) only. Voice and SMS are "built in" so to speak - as long as the SIM matches yoru carrier's records, they will work.

Deleting the APNs (or using APNdroid) will block cellular data, leaving voice, SMS and WiFi internet unaffected.
[G1 Android Development] screwthe49ers:
Now that I have your attention, to make it Sense UI run faster, UNDERCLOCK it with overclock widget (the red/blue icon one) to 383mhz and let the phone accustomize to that speed for 2-3 minutes and the phone definitely runs faster. Or at least it did for me.

I run Swapper at 32mb/10 swappiness w/ the clock/weather and twitter widget, plus 6 icons, the overclock widget, and the wifi toggle widget and have noticed a HUGE difference in the past 24 hours since I first started running the underclock.

Don't ask cause I can't explain how this is either...

My next "quest" for better performance is to try w/o Swapper.
[G1 Android Development] michagol2:
Heard about underclocking helping performance on hero before.... Ill try it out for a day and see what happens....
[G1 Android Development] j2kquest:
Your right, seems weird but underclocking definately improves overall performance.

i posted a similiar suggestion in "the problem with hero" thread, as underclocking also solves the sms issue
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
A better tweak would be to add this to you init.rc:

write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold 40
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/ignore_nice_load 1
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate 200000

What this does is allow the CPU frequency to ramp up much faster.
[G1 Android Development] screwthe49ers:
So, what you're saying what you suggested would do what a standard overclocker app is intended to do, albeit with better results?

BTW, the script you wrote, enter it in terminal emulator?
[G1 Android Development] KyleK29:
Now, you have to add that to the init.rc file.
[G1 Android Development] screwthe49ers:
I'm adb ignorant, so I'm guessing it involves using adb, or if not, exactly how is that done? What program do you use to open/edit init.rc?
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
depends. The init.rc is in the boot.img.

You would have to extract the ramdisk from the boot.img, uncpio it, edit the init.rc file, repack the boot.img and either fastboot the boot.img or put it in an update package and reflash.

I can edit the init.rc.
[G1 Android Development] screwthe49ers:
So it looks like you would use notepad to add it to the file?

Or, couldn't you use root explorer on the phone itself to make the changes?

You know I am using setcpu and I had it set to max 528 but I changed it to 384, left it for a few minutes and now I am playing with it and it does feel a little snappier. I wonder why that is. I remember some discussion about overclocking and the restriction of the hardware/OS bottlenecking the processor at a certain point. Would this have something to do with it, or maybe it's just psychosomatic, we believe that it's faster so it feels that way. A placebo affect maybe :rolleyes:

Edit: I also found that using Advanced Task Manager differently helped. I used to have it kill all process and it would feel like my phone would bog down afterwards. So I tried using it without killing anything and it felt snappier. So I set it up to leave the background processes and just kill apps that I exit out of and it feels a little better. Just FYI for anyone else that uses a task manager
[G1 Android Development] harpreet1988:
Do we set max and min both to 384, or the default max 384, min 245?
[G1 Android Development] screwthe49ers:
Set 384 to the max. You can set the minimum to 245 to save a little on battery, or set it to 384 as well to eliminate the "hibernation" mode, like on a pc.
[G1 Android Development] screwthe49ers:
Uhhh, don't do this. It hung at the bootscreen. Now I'm reformatting my card since it won't let me reflash or restore via nandroid....

[G1 Android Development] screwthe49ers:
cyanogen@screwthe49ers you can stick it at the end of /system/init.rc if you don't want to mess with the ramdisk
[G1 Android Development] ccyrowski:
cool. I put it in the ramdisk.
[G1 Android Development] Sirus20x6:
I MIGHT have an explanation. reaching way way way back to my ancient memory (ok this actually still applies today)

CPU frequency = multiplier X FSB frequency

back in the day when you had a CPU speed of 100 MHZ and an FSB of 33 MHZ you would have a CPU multiplier of 3. now eventually they started locking multipliers down so people couldn't just change it to 3.5 in the bios and get a faster CPU then what they paid for. so people would up their FSB and would get even better speeds because the system would scale as a whole.

Then someone figured out that when you move your FSB down just a tad it changed your PCI clock multiplier and you would be running your PCI cards at around 45 MHZ.

the old joke was that while 38 mhz was a nice OC, 32 mhz was even better ;)

maybe by changing the CPU we are making the system change the multiplier for another subsystem.

I'm going to add it to my other build too.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Cool.

I thought i was just crazy when i always had my max's at 384 and i thought it was running faster. :p Just These Weird incredibly slow lags i have always make me overclock it back to 527 lol. Also if i may add The overclock widget seems to work twice as better as SetCPU.

Hmm with the swapper try switching around the numbers. what i mean is instead of having 32/10 try to switch around the numbers and have the swap size smaller than the swappiness. seems like i get a boost from it.

EDIT: Ok guys im getting a pretty serious improvement from this. Run it at 64/80 and tell me you guy's result. Only Lag screen ive seen is when pressing home from coming from changing the swappiness you will get the htc screen but besides that this is pretty good
[G1 Android Development] coolbho3000:
You can try cyanogen's suggestion without writing to init.rc:

echo 40 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold

echo 1 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/ignore_nice_load

echo 200000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate

Actually, it's probably time to update SetCPU to edit the values in the ondemand directory.

The system still does better in benchmarks at 528MHz so there must be some other underlying cause to the lower speed (or a placebo effect).
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
The default values for ondemand are pretty ****ty, thats why I tuned them. I think it makes a big different in the latency of the device.

And about the FSB thing, I don't think it's the case because the CPU in these things is rated to run at 528MHz (the Rogers G1 actually ships this way). I think Google was just very conservative with the settings to reduce power consumption at the cost of latency.
[G1 Android Development] Shaquiel Harris:
Lol i was right again. Having the swappiness higher than the swap file does improve [: JAC posted 32/60 is a sweet spot.
