Hey everyone,

I last hard reset my phone a few months ago. For some reason, maybe 1 month ago or a little longer ago, my GPS function stopped working. I use Google Maps and Microsoft Live Search. Both of them have the same problem, they attempt to connect to satellites and then say GPS communication error (or something similar). When I use manual mode, it's 57,600bps and Com 7, same problem.

The GPS quick connection update thing will no longer update. I tried the Q-GPS thing yesterday and that updates just fine. When I check the system info, it shows the GPS and 2 dll files. But I can't activate the GPS.

I don't imagine this is related to installing an SD driver? I wasn't able to read my 2 gig micro-SD card (in a micro to mini adapter), after a while, so I searched for drivers, found one that worked, and then at some point when I tried the GPS, the GPS didn't work.

Any ideas? I could do a hard reset, but that's annoying as we all know, to reinstall everything, reconfigure the settings, etc.

Also, we just switched from T-Mobile to AT&T. I currently have the $10/mth plan, but it doesn't let me access my IMAP accounts. I imagine IM+ won't work either (I assume it only allows http connections?) . Is there another plan I could use or some hack, so I don't have to pay $30(!?)/month for unlimited data? I was paying $20 with T-Mobile for the Blackberry plan and that worked just fine with everything, even though T-Mobile themselves said it wouldn't work. Anything similar with AT&T?

Thanks in advance :)

Full data plan with AT&T for $10

Just to update anyone interested. I found that when my phone reboots, for a seconds it was showing About and Menu (or something like that) for the softkeys before it was fully booted. Anyway, it turned out it was for the VPN settings. Apparently AT&T had set that up by default when I installed the AT&T SIM card. Anyway, it listed a proxy server, and for the heck of it, I unchecked the proxy server. Then I ran FlexMail and guess what? It worked! For $10/month, I have full data access, I just had to turn off the proxy server.

Hopefully this helps someone.. :)

our HTCs has long been able to do things like weather... maps.. etc

why is N97 so hyped?
[General Topics] -PiLoT-:
because its made by the biggest phone maker inthe world

and a lot of nokia user dont like to switch hanset brands

which means theyll have not had this amount of features

be nice to them though

they dont dont know there better phones :p
[General Topics] samy.3660:

[General Topics] slick69:
Symbian is really similar to Windows Mobile - an OS from the dark ages.

But they've shown a lot better progress and growth since the launch of the iPhone than Windows Mobile.
[General Topics] lobiik:
yeah, I remember everybody being jealous about 7650 all these years ago. Multitasking and copy&paste. See, it took apple over 2 years to add these. I stopped to like symbian just after the new version being released (few apps, first phones were slow, etc.) So sold my 3230 and got myself Wizard.

They lost it few years ago and now catching on again, but I fell in love with these crappy htc devices, windows and that messing around :]
[General Topics] whatledog:
yarod_g14 (or anyone:p), Does Symbian have anything like bluetooth mono for their devices? This is what I would miss the most if I were to switch to the n97. As much as I like how the Omnia Pro sounds, I think I'll be getting a tilt screen, so that means the TP2 or the N97.
[General Topics] ton80:
Hmmm The N97 may well be a good device but it's still missing soo much. The default browser has no copy and paste from a web page and as we speak you have the choice of opera MINI or the rather painful safari which has to be said is useless at caching pages...wait wait and wait some more and thats just to view a page you looked at not 2minutes earlier! Again as we speak, you cannot view different video formats..I certainly wouldn't pay 500pounds for a device that can't play .mpg, xvid etc ok I know coreplayer will arrive but still!! Then that all conquering n97 has a terrible office suite..show me a symbian app with even 10percent of softmakers functionality. Symbian apps are in the lightweight category. The user accessible RAM seems on the low side too. Symbian in it's current state is too closed...very little quality freeware and users cannot fix os flaws. I do dig the design though....
[General Topics] brummiesteven:
"I think this OS is going to be a very very big contender over the next year."

The biggest problem with Symbian when I had my N95 is that apps weren't back compat. Symbian v2 apps wouldn't work on V3 and vice-versa.

I also had the N95 and the N95 8GB. Although Symbian is OK it's not as fast and bug free as you make it out to be. The N95 constantly crashed, rebooted, gave me "sim not inserted" errors. Sometimes it lagged and was slow. This was consistant in all symbain devices I had, N70, N73, N80, N95 and N95 8GB.

To the OP. I don't know weather you're American or not but Nokia is BIG in Europe hence the hype of the N97. Nokia are THE mobile phone company to be honest. They've been around for donkeys years and introduced a whole load of concepts to the mainstream... Changeable Fascias, Cheap Colour Screens, WAP on the 3330. Also IMO they were the first company to bring a Smart Phone into the Mainstream. Before they early Nokia Symbian phones all there was was Windows Mobile and that was Business Orientated.

[G1 Android Development] charnsingh_online:
Should I upload to SERVER(currently uploading) or i should just concentrate on uploading via torrent so that the person can who finishes first uploads
[G1 Android Development] maxawesome:
If you're already uploading it to a filehosting server, please continue to do so. If someone beats you to it and posts a link to a filehost first, no problemo, right?
[G1 Android Development] charnsingh_online:
I have no problem but it will be faster if someone uploads after completing as all my bandwidth will be on torrent, so people will complete it faster and as they have better spped then me they can upload and it will overall be a faster process

I am about to replace my Digitizer and LCD on my Touch Pro.

I have purchased both parts seperately but there is no gasket no stick the 2 together.

I have read many threads on here and other places but cannot find an answer to my question.

Where can i get a replacement gasket or what has other people used, would double sided tape be ok or should it be something thicker? Maybe a foam double sided tape.

Any suggestions from somebody who has any experience in changing digitizer and lcd.

The rest of it looks no problem i have plenty of experience in soldering and am more than compentent enough to dismantle the phone its just i want to have all the things i will need ready before i start rather than take it all apart only to find i need to get something else.

Many thanks.

Hello everyone,

I'm graphic artist and I design interfaces and icons. In this thread you can request app designs, but only for already released or (almost) working apps. I don't want to put my time into apps that are never going to finish or apps that are just tryouts.

Please post a current screenshot of the app and all the features you want to have in the interface.

Examples of my designs:

Airplane Mode Wi-fi Helper

Draxter:

I found this thread and I was amazed that you would do this for free.

Here's an app I'm working on, it's done, however I need a design for it.

Basically it's an app that helps users traveling on airplane to use the wi-fi.

1) I'd like for it to have some sort of background image or sleek design.

2) The buttons can be replaced with ImageButtons.

3) Some buttons will be disabled, and obviously pushed.

4) The actual icon should stay how it is, however the app title can change to anything.

"Airplane Mode Wi-fi Enabler" is already on the market, and this will be the next update. The settings tools of the ap available on the market is available on this one as well, its just that this one is a little better tool for non-advanced android users.

The app is free and will stay free, I have other apps I sell and I want to contribute to the community by leaving this one free.

Thanks in advance!
[G1 Apps and Games] velazcod:
Forgot to say. I will definitely credit you on the "About" section of the app.

I have a nice idea for both the calendar and the airplane apps, I downloaded the airplane app and all it shows me is "keep wifi on?" Im not getting a screen like your screenshot at all :P

I was wondering what the landed button would do, does it restore the settings to airplane mode off and wifi on or something?
[G1 Apps and Games] Draxter:
A (tiny) small impression, Have to go now again, be back tomorow :(
[G1 Apps and Games] velazcod:
Hi dexter,

Actually, that's the old version in the market. The new version is totally different, just like the screenshot.

PM your email so I can send you an apk file

thanks
[G1 Apps and Games] velazcod:
"Landed" would turn airplane mode off and remove the notification.
[G1 Apps and Games] velazcod:
That's a sleek idea!
[G1 Apps and Games] Draxter:
I went on the iPhone tour :P love it or hate it.

I can always finish the other version if you dislike this ;)

[Advantage X7510 General] greginotago:
Telecom New Zealand has recently launced its "new" mobile network - WCDMA on 850MHz (it was a the rather antiquanted CDMA system prior!). Their range of "new" phones was nothing spectacular really and nothing much else worldwide appealed to me more than the X7510, so I duely purchased one from the UK.

When the SIM card was installed the unit come up with the following message:-

The Operator does not exist in the database. Please contact your Operator for the connections settings.

[Intrestingly enough, Vodafone NZ is in the database, even although the X7510 is not sold in NZ - but I digress!]

However the phone function and SMS appear to be working well, apart from the fact that it refuses to acknowledge the NZ Telecom Voicemail number. I get a good solid H in the Quick Menu Bar.

The data connection refuses to work at all though.

I have contacted "the Operator", but they are not all that interested in helping me as the X7510 is not a phone we support and while they've helped a little bit, the several HelpDesk Operators I've tried, all seem to end up with the same conclusion that everything the phone needs to know about the network and connection is on the SIM card.

When I open the SIM Manager, I can "see" some of the data there. (e.g. such as the Voicemail Number, but Voicemail on the phone Speed Dial is blank - no number stored). And when I try and connect to the Internet (using the number that Telecom provided verbally) it keeps asking for more Connections Settings, which I am told, there aren't any more to enter - it's all on the SIM!

It appears to me that the phone is trying to "capture" the Operator's Settings via radio rather than obtain it from the SIM!

Is there a way I can override the radio search function and get the PDA to "look" at the SIM card? Or maybe try any other method to obtain a data connection.

Any advice appreciated.

Cheers, Greg

[Advantage X7510 General] NeilM:
I'm not too up on this, but I think your X7510 is NOT compatible with the TNZ system. Telstra use a very unusual hybrid of 850/2100 connections where most operators use 850/1900 or 2100 only. One is for upstream and the other for downstream where there are 2 figures.

Although it does support both 850 and 2100Mhz, they are on different frequency bands, so you could have the 850/1900 working OK, but not 850/2100.

What it means in practice is that whichever band you select, you will only get upstream or downstream UMTS connections, not both together. This may be why you see the 'H' but can't connect. In practice, you may only be able to use this phone on the slow GSM network.

Some of the other stuff is setup based, and some info you have been given is simply wrong!

To get the SMS and Voicemail number set, start the phone dialler, and go to Menu/Options/Services then scroll to the bottom setting in the window (VM and SMS) and tap it to highlight, then Get Settings. You may need to manually enter the VM access number you normally dial. Do 'Save to Network' and they should be OK.

For data access, you do not enter any phone numbers- you need to configure the setting as 'Cellular Modem GSM/3G' then enter the Access Point (APN) and any password and username.

It seems Telstra are cagey about publishing the connection parameters but I found this one:

GPRS APN: - telstra.internet

Username: - {blank}

Password: - {blank}

DNS: - 139.130.4.4, 203.50.170.2

As I suspect though, you may only be able to get GSM, not 3G/UMTS
[Advantage X7510 General] greginotago:
Neil,

You are a Gem! Okay, the first part didn't work, but I can enter the Voicemail as Speed Dial #2 or use the Voice Dial on the Parrot BT; so no real biggy that the X7510 simply will not accept the Telecom Voicemail number.

But I did hit paydirt with your data access suggestion and that was the one that was really important for e-mails and Internet access (as there aren't too many Wi-Fi Hot Spots in sparsely populated New Zealand!!)

Thanks so much for your prompt and excellent response.

Regards,

Greg
