I can leave my phone "connected" via bluetooth to my pc, but the question is , is there a software wherein I can fully control the phone function via PC? I want to make calls, answer calls handsfree via PC. Can my windows pc's mic serve as the Phone's Mic?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Bijdehandje:
For contolling your device fully from a pc you can use software like pocket controller. Though i think that using your pc mic as phone mic would be a problem i think. maybe you can use a bt headset for this issue.

Best of luck
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Bob_Beard:
I currently use MyMobiler to control my Kaiser from my laptop. I don't know if a program exists that will let you use a computer's microphone for phone calls, but a bluetooth headset or speakerphone kit, or simply using the speakerphone option on your phone are all options.

The only reason I ever need to directly interface with my phone while it's plugged in is that I use my phone's data connection for internet, and apparently you can't do that while connected to ActiveSync (MyMobiler requires an ActiveSync connection).

I'm assuming MyMobiler will work with your computer over bluetooth. I'm pretty sure you just need an ActiveSync connection, but I use the USB cable, especially since it's a convenient way to charge my Kaiser.

Hi there,

Please vote for your favorite GPS software on the HD.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] MrKaon:
for what?

you can have both on HD and use which one you like

personally I prefer iGO to any one
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tids2k:
yes but what i am researching on is the popularity among the two !

Not sure if this is the best place for this question but here goes anyway..

Is there a way to change the SMS input window size? Im running a custom ROM and the size is about 2x what im used to and its bugging me.. im used to having 2 lines of displaied txt and this has 4.. im sure its a setting, reg entry somewhere but i havn't found it yet..

TIA
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] vsnipper:
Using Total Commander, Go into the ‘Windows’ directory and find the line ‘thread_sms.htm’ and go to ‘edit’ then find the line towards the bottom <inbox:content id=COMPOSESUBJECT width =”98%” height = 35. Urs might have something other than 35 in the height, since it is a cooked rom. Simply reduce the # in the height to 35, which i think is the default 2 line text msg window, and hit save. that should get you fixed up.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] ~Glitch~:
Just an addition to vsnipper, Im doing it at 70 instead of 35. gives you a lot of space. :) :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] phunkytown:
wow... thanks a lot... i did what the above guy did and exteded it to 70...

and it worked... thanks again
[General Questions and Answers] Anthony Hartley:
Hi folks,

I'm new to this forum but from what I've seen so far it is very informative. Well this is my first post and I would like to start with a "how do I" question.

I have been using Route66 navigation software on my Omnia i900 with no problems communicating with the phone's internal gps. However, in order to improve satellite reception I would like to use an external bluetooth receiver (Holux M1200). My other gps applications work fine after setting up the baud rate and ports but there are no such settings in the Route66 application.

This what Route66 support said:

I kindly inform you that the ROUTE 66 Navigation software does not offer any options regarding the configuration of an external GPS Bluetooth receiver.

However, all Bluetooth GPS receivers that meet the following requirements can be used with ROUTE 66 navigation software:

- Protocol (minimum): NMEA-0183 v2.0 (RMC)

- Protocol (recommended): NMEA-0183 v2.0 or higher (RMC, GSA, GSV)

- Map datum: WGS84

In order to use the GPS option in the ROUTE 66 navigation software, the GPS device must meet the following requirements:

- The protocol used by the GPS device must be fully NMEA-0183 2.0 (or higher) compatible.

- The minimum protocol requirements are that the RMC and GSA sentences have to be sent.

- The MAP DATUM used in the ROUTE 66 program is WGS-84.

- The baud rate is 4800 - 38400 bps.

I just don't understand where to go from here

Welcome to the forum

As this is an HTC devices only forum you won´t get too much atention.

However there is a thread in off topic section regarding samsung (not sure if your model) but there you´ll have more chances to get help.

Good luck,

Hi everybody,

i just found this http://www.htc.com/www/press.aspx?id=103534&lang=1033

If you scroll down a little bit you'll find:

A nice Video can be watched here (ok ... it's Hero => Android, but should look similiar on WinMo-Devices ... except Multi-Finger-Gestures)

Watch how it works with Flash here

IMHO this looks very promising :D

@Developers:

What do you think ... will this be running on our belowed Blackstones? :eek:

@Mods:

If this is the wrong Forum, please move this Thread. :rolleyes:

Thanks in advice.

kind regards

fwt

PS: I'm off for a short Holiday ... better said long Weekend. Having some recreation! :D:D
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Looks promising but I think it would be a while before you would see this on a WM device
[Touch HD General] schlitzohr1812:
I bet that 90% of the cooked HD-roms will contain that interface within the next 6 months ;)

And it looks very promising :)

[Touch HD General] MrKaon:
It is new UI for Android OS, HTC loves to make UI for different OS

Windows Mobile ==> Touch FLO 3D

Android ==> HTC Sense

I love it's analog clock

I want it :p
[Touch HD General] NRGZ28:
Not THAT long.. they (HTC) are already pretty close. Shhhhhhh :P
[Touch HD General] citrix80:
touch flo is old now, we want to see something new on wm. :D
[Touch HD General] DarkRaver:
That sounds petty cool !

Did your preview ROM (released as a preview around the 16th june) is built using Manila or is it a WM version of HTC sense ?

I used it a few hours and was very nice ;)
[Touch HD General] tagazok:
Yep

That would be also cool if htc would make a plugin system for manila (on futur htc sense) like on WM6.5 main interface to make it easy to develop new tabs (I want a twitter tab :p)
[Touch HD General] iosub:
looks like you have seen something??? :)
[Touch HD General] iSlaker:
it won't take long until my blackstone is found on ebay... i think i was just waiting for the "reason"... and here it is! amazing, amazing software. i feel pity of the current windows mobile when i look at iphone and android's OS... ah! not to mention the marvelous Palm Pre.
[Touch HD General] bjy8138:
i thought it is for android? HTC Hero is an android rite?
[Touch HD General] mallman:
i second that and i thought i read somewhere that it is coming to WM as well so keep fingers crossed
[Touch HD General] moshbeard:
It's pretty much just a reshuffled Touch Flo with more fancy effects, I won't say no when it's availiable but nor am I going to desperate to get my hands on it.

[Touch HD General] tiny969:
hey, just ordered a blackstone a few days ago... and saw HTC sense today. I just want it! what do you think, will HTC sense be available for the blackstone too?

just read the posts above, maybe it will be available, maybe there will be a new WM touchflo version... in your opinion, should I leave my order, buy a blackstone and hope for HTC sense made available for it, or should I wait for more HTC sense devices like the hero?

a really really hard decision!

thx!
[Touch HD General] tweaker:
This is another reason why we need Android on the HD. HTC Sense is so much more fluid and finger friendly.
[Touch HD General] tiny969:
absolutely. this is a MUST HAVE. can't imagine better then HD with sense...
[Touch HD General] darthbane2k:
LOL - Talk about wishful thinking.

HTC no longer support the Touch HD, theres no way you're going to see such an update for it.
[Touch HD General] tiny969:
would be interesting where you've read/heard/got that info? I just read an article, John Wang: "HTC Sense will be available for Android AND Windows Mobile devices in the near future." (tecchannel.de, in german)
[Touch HD General] iSlaker:
i think blackstone was some sort of "let's drop this on the market and see what happens". even though a lot of people won't say there is a lot of disappointment surrounding this handset.

the android porting force team are doing their best but by the time we see it running on blackstone nice and smooth, it will be like the hermes last year, an old handset which just geeks still use it... it will be old and there'll be loads of better options on the market.
[Touch HD General] tiny969:
wooohoooo... challenge! ;)

so, in your opinion it's nonsense to buy a blackstone if I like to have HTC Sense... even if it's completely ported sometime.

hm. maybe I stand alone with the feeling, but I have to say that the blackstone STILL is the most manageable, well designed, ... let's say one of the best smartphones on the market. even if I compare it with new devices like the HTC Hero with Sense, I would prefer the casing of the blackstone.

comparing blackstone with its successor, supposed firestone, or other announced devices, blackstone is my favorite concerning the look & feel. as far as I can valuate by looking at photos.

So I hope for a HTC Touch HD-like device with HTC Sense, without those thickening sliding keyboards or some kind of bend...
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Give it some time, no doubt you'll see it soon enough on the HD

i somewhat agree with you...

don't say this new HTC Sense, HTC didnt even release the new TF3D v2 for HD...HTC may prove me wrong, but chances are it wont be availble on the HD...

Maybe this new Touch Sense will be the new interface for Windows Mobile 6.5 devices...
[Touch HD General] mike21pr:
i dunno but i believe that when htc mentioned this being on future devices, i think they mean their android branch... i mean wm dont have a paged or widget based homescreen like android so i doubt it will happen with wm or if it will b da same if it does
[Touch HD General] hoss_n2:
i think that htc still supports htc hd it is still its best device till now but the new interface will not be avaliable for hta hd neither wm6.5 it is kind of the strategy of the company to make people buy new devices
[Touch HD General] sbarts:
If it's possible to have this UI working on WM then i'm sure one of the cooks here will do it. I look forward to that day!!
[Touch HD General] sawer82:
MobileBurn site asked the HTC representative if the Sense UI is comming to WM too. The answer was NO. Also due to licensing problems with Google and integrated Exchange client, only pure HTC phones with android will have Sense. Tmobile G1 and HTC Magic are not included.

[Touch HD General] iSlaker:
great info, thanks for posting.

from my experience observing microsoft's attitudes over the years nothing is more certain to me than the fact that they will soon drop us a hell of a OS for mobile phones.

cause that's what they do, they don't make anything new, they get what others do, learn it, and then make a much better version of it. we dont need to get worried over these apps from htc will or wont be available cause im 300% sure microsoft will surprise us very soon. and im not talking about winmo 6.5.

my pc runs windows 7, i've an xbox original, an xbox 360, a zune and a windows mobile phone... everything related to all these devices followed the same procedure: "not telling what we're doing... we don't comment on speculation blablabla" and then "here it is!!"...

just wait and see
[Touch HD General] DRTigerlilly:
@ Impeccability and what about the HTC Press release saying Sense would come to all future devices?

Furthermore Sense is referred to as "HTC SENSE™" that doesn't sound like a philosophy, that sounds like a product.

Some more toyish whatever to play with for a few hours and then get bored to tears only to come back here and read some trite crap on yet another phone and another UI that after a while all look and feel and get me just bored just the same. I'm going out for a walk. Have a nice evening.

[Touch HD General] bogdatov:
Wondering what is the purpose to have 2 interfaces (kinda similar) HTC Sense and TF3D 2.5 ? Why not have just one ?
[Touch HD General] dom_mitchell1:
HTC "Sense" is not a skin over any OS. "Sense" is the people-centric view to OSes that HTC are taking.

In a way, "Sense" is already here with the new contacts system in the Rhodium TF3D. It allows you to view all the information about a person in the way the people do, by face and communication.

"Sense" is HTC's way of taking us away from an app based system of viewing information and making that information pertinant to the individual it concerns.

It's explained in a little more detail here if you look to the comments' section.

TF3D 2.5 is HTC's further movement towards this 'people-centric' approach to the OS on our phones. I just can't wait to see what WM7 brings and whether companies like HTC will still need/want to skin it like they have done to 6.1 and now 6.5.

Hi to all HD Users!

What do you think about the Acer Shell? And would it be possible to install it on the Touch HD?

I already have all .cab files portet from the acer m900 so maby someone can make it work on the Touch HD?!?

Because it says when I want to install "this software is not for your phone" but its installing. When I want to start the Acer Shell than it says "Acer...loading" but its doing noting!

Maby someone has an idea how it could work on the hd!

Here is a link to rapidshare where you can also find all cabs and apps who are installed on the base version of the Acer M900 including the Shell and the great zoombar:

Hi Folks,

How realistic is this? Ie to remotely log in to a server and do something sensible like restart a web instance on IIS or whatever or am I being too ambitious? Some colleagues think I should stick with netbooks/laptops.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] whtrbt7:
I always though RDP was a little anemic. Is it still that way? One of the best things about logmein was the ability to set it and forget it even with dynamic IP addressing. Also it's easy to install for people that need help on their desktops or servers. The other applications I have tried are PCAnywhere which is nice but a pain if dynamic IP is present, also RealVNC which worked great but had issues with performance as well as interoperability between OSs. Any others out there that might be nice? I need to connect with OSX, Windows XP/Vista, and also Ubuntu.

Depends on which version of TF3D you have. This patch only works on versions 2.0 and 2.1. To check the version go to the settings tab in TouchFlo, at the bottom there should be "About" and "TouchFLO 3D" followed by version number.

Beautiful, thanks very much for this.

Working in Onkolog 25/6 build (WM 6.5).

However, there is a slight but noticeable more lag for a tab to come up after it is tapped. ie. after I press the 'Programs' tab it will take half a second more for the programs to be displayed on screen.

It is small enough for me to live with for now, but time will tell how I will think of it when I use the phone on the go.

Anyways, thanks very much!

Did you make you wallpaper with or without UltraHQ compression?

While I was testing I noticed some issues with UltraHQ - tab switch lag and choppy animations for tab slider and hide/show clock.

Without UltraHQ everything runs smoothly.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Flexer:
Duuuude!!! Do you know that you rock? :D

Now for the question. As I understand, the file names are different for the home tab, and for the "all tabs".. Can I create a home page image with "your" profile, than make a "rest of the tabs" image with the default profile, and run the "create cab" process that adds all of these images into 1 cab.. Will this make an installer that changes both the home tab and the rest of the tabs? I mean.. I hope so :D

Update: YES, it DOES work! Now, there's still the weird difference in padding (or at least I think so.. The bottom of the image seems ok, but I think the top it seems to move a couple of pixels higher.. but nonetheless, now it looks EPIC! Thanks a lot for the awesome update! :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Flexer:
I guess I noticed a small... bug.. ?

The home tab doesn't have a "hashed" area on the top.. The operator name now is printed directly on the background..

And of course the non-transparent slider, but I suppose that's not an issue with your cab :P
