i have seen and played with the Toshibas TG01 World UI...

after 10 minutes i disabled the ui because it is really really crap...

i don´t want to have this on my xperia because it doesnt work well
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marsualk:
I am asking for advice!

I have searched the forum, but havent found any solution yet. Volume Buttons of my Xperia stopped working (as well as some keyboard buttons, for example I cannot typ "t", "i".. and several others.. !!). So I need to get back stock rom for warranty reasons, but I cant, cause I am not able to get into the RAINBOW SCREEN..

Is there any other possible way how to get the rainbow screen or how to flash stock rom without that...

What about the PC program that shows you mobile screen on your PC..? Can this program run the rainbow screen?

Thanks for any help!!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firefall!:
This is quite bad bro... Don't think you can do anything about it with PC software. There is a flashing method using an image on MicroSD card but I think it also requires you to do the Volume-down-press. Have you tried Hardreset through Windows Mobile? (Settings -> Clear Storage) I don't think this will help, though... But why not try it.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
Flash it using usb connection with you PC

Your phone will automaticaly go to the three colors screen during the process
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marsualk:
2firegall!!: i did hard reset, but it did not help :-/

2mopral: ok, thanks, I flash the stock rom through PC. but could you tell me how to that? I flashed through PC for example Touch-ITs' roms - but they are provided with certain program to be run directly on PC (RUU something.exe...). but what shell i do with stock rom, that is xxx.nbh or xxx.image :-D?? sorry i am not that experianced!

once again, THANKSSSS!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marsualk:
Sorry, I should have done a better search :-) ! Now I have found the Rom Update Utility - hope that this flashes the stock rom into my Xperia through PC...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titof974:
Did the rom update help? I have the same probleme.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marsualk:
NO! :-/ It did not help, I am going to SE Service today, hope they fix it soon, cause I can write messages without hardware keyboard (I am lazy to use on-screen keyboard with stylus).. The volume buttons still dont work, and I am sure, these issues are covered by guarantee :-)..

Hey guys,

I've received this weekend my HTC Magic (from Vodafone Portugal):

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H

HBOOT-1.33.0009 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-3.22.20.17

As you can see Vodafone is not equal in every countries regarding the choice of equipment. I guess that's good for me (or maybe not... :P ).

Well, having this, I've been reading a lot about flashing new roms, etc... as I would like to try a Hero ROM.

So far I saw the JACHeroski one as the most talked but not quite sure if it's good or not, or if there are any other good choices... Also Fatality one...

So, for those that have tried 32A Hero Roms, can you put here your experience in order to help us (the ones looking for these roms) decide?

Thank you.

Regards,

AP

Hi,

I will receive soon an 32A sapphire with rom Fatal1ty 1.4 pre-installed.

Do I need to upgrade to JACHero rom, or Fatal1ty will be as fast (288 Mo RAM)

If i install lighted Rosie, will it be more responsive ?

As the Super Optimized Rosie have optimized PNG might have compatible problems with the current, So I assume that when you reboot your phone and relaunch it with the new rosie you might have error issue...

[Touch 3G General] XxAndrexX:
Hi! I wanted to post this for everybody who had the same problem that I had, because I think I was the only one in the world to have this strange issue!

I bought my Jade and the first thing I did is to upgrade the ROM to the new one. then I tried google maps, but i could only get the GSM position, since there was no GPS Device available. I tried every navigator program and no one seemed to discover the Device. So I tought I had a damaged Jade. But after updating Google Maps i got a GPS signal :D

But google maps is not a navigator :(

After getting crazy with the port settings, set te external GPS to:

Program data port: COM0

Hardware data port: nothing

Hardware speed: 4800 baud

Access: Windows managed

So you'll get every navigation system work on port COM0 with speed 4800
[Touch 3G General] Nirak:
Tx for sharing Andre, haven't had problems with my GPS but this info might be indeed handy for others.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zomig:
I have a strange issue with my touch pro2 which i have never seen before on any of my previous phones i.e. TYTNII / Vario II etc,

If i hold the phone horizontal to the eye then i can see a kind of heat / rainbow haze covering the middle of the screen apart from about a 1cm clear part going all around to the edge. So basically the middle part. You can only see this in certain light or looking closely with the phone titled horizontally to the eye. I have taken the screen protector off to ensure it is not this reflecting and it is still there with this removed.

I cant see that this is normal, the phone only gets used for the normal stuff like internet sharing, calls, music streaming etc.

any help appreciated before i give mobile phones direct or HTC a call.

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zoomee:
noticed the same on mine mate, can't say it affected anything so wasnt really bothered with it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zomig:
I can only see it in artificial light but surely this cannot be right ?

it looks as though it has over heated or something.

Waiting on a call from Both HTC and Mobilephonesdirect see what they say.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zomig:
I have attached a screen shot so everyone can see, pic taken with my trusty Kaiser.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rosebud:
I have seen similar in the past but only on my tytn which I replaced the screen on,

it did disappear after a few days of it being there tho,

if you still have your screen protector on have you tried removing it?

orb3000, could you edit your image and make it a little smaller? it took over the screen lol

Cheers Steve
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Ghostifish:
I had this with my axim 50v. It was caused by pressure on the touchscreen, in my case caused by the belt pouch i kept it in. It didn't do any damage and cleared up if the device was left for a while without anything pressing onto the screen.

If u keep the phone in ur pocket then try carrying it screen side out (ie, not towards ur body)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zomig:
it looks as though there is some sort of air or moisture between the outer screen and the inner as if i press on a corner i can see the haze move. So looks as though somehow it has come off of something if that makes sense....

have now emailed HTC and will see what they come back with, left a voice mail and emailed mobilephonesdirect and heard nothing from them. Shame really as thought they were a good company. Always the same though good at taking the money never good at supporting, so true for a lot companies these days.

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Ghostifish:
to me it really just looks like excessive area pressure over time, displacing the goo in the touchscreen. (at least i think there is goo in them seperating the sensing layers)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zomig:
not been pressed against anything only in the belt clip it comes with. never had any of this with my previous phones and my kaiser is still ok 2 years after buying it. Seems a bit of a design flaw.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] flippy:
I had this problem with my Kaiser. Must be someting to do with the touch layer. Never fixed it as it was not a problem under normal light and when u see the phone in a normal angle. (Not to diss your problem report hehe)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zomig:
It can really stand out in certain conditions, I will see what HTC say as I have emailed them the picture. Its and expensive item which something like this should not happen.

when you press the corner of the screen the haze/rainbow effect moves so it is definately something that has come away but underneath a few layers.

When i get a response i will post it here as maybe of use to others.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zomig:
HTC's official response, this phone like my TYTnII has only been used in the belt clip and yet apparently this is my fault due to much pressure!?! Which of course is utter rubbish.

Quote from HTC.

Thank you for contacting HTC Technical support Centre.

The device needs to be examined under our Engineers to determine whether it'll be treated as IW or OOW case. But from our experience, we can tell that it's Newton ring which is OOW case. You'll be receiving an email from the RC to tell you how much it costs to get repaired. You can choose whether to pay or to reject the quotation and if you reject it you'll only pay for the diagnostic fees and the courier and both takes up to 15 pounds.

In case you needed any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact is on our Hotline, < 0845 890 0079 >, or visit our Website, < www.htc.com >.

After sending my phone back to HTC they have repaired this within the warranty so free of charge, in fact they have sent me a new phone i think as all imei numbers have changed and rom is newer.

There was obviously something wrong with the phone for it to go like it did.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Fuzalert2k:
Awe, shoot. I was hoping the Touch Pro 2 to not have this problem. It is called the newton ring and virtually every HTC device gets this problem. It is INDEED a problem, and it even voids your warranty at time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vwauditech:
Newton Ring?

Are you saying that it does VOID your warranty. Mine started doing this and quickly has now covered all the screen but the edge all the way around. I am going to call repair center tomorrow and find out for sure.

I will post their response to my call.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] zomig:
HTC did replace the phone, in fact the one they sent out done the same thing within 4 weeks so i sent this one back as well. They repaired this one also, although they just replaced the screen this time. At present a few months down the line i have not had the newton ring back.

I wont be buying another HTC phone now based on the awful problems I have had with this TP2, i am now on my 3rd. I have had HTC phones for the past 6 years and never had an issue like this.

HTC have become very sloppy lately in quality when releasing phones. Hopefully this will change.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Nittany:
Argh. Mine just hit this 2 days ago. I've owned it since October.

It's almost a perfect rectangle with a 1cm border except for the bottom where it's maybe 2mm from the screen edge.

I'll be bringing it back to a Verizon store and hopefully they'll swap it out.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mjh8812:
my voyager did this...and i work in a service and repair center and see it a lot of on touch pros..what happend with my voyager is i got a scratch on the screen that must have broken the top layer..and i took the phone into the bathroom with me to take a shower and condensation got up under that top layer and caused that rainbow effect under the screen...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dkdontforget:
this only happened to me on touch screen phones when i put the screen protector on and there was some moisture underneith
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Dexter_Morgan:
i noticed today a small approx 1x2 cm area of this near the top of my screen. i tried pulling off my screen protector and it seemes to spread to cover most of the screen. after playing around with the screen protector a bit i seem to have reduced the effect to a very small area. i dont want to mess anymore in case i make it worse again.

someone suggested putting my phone in the fridge for while to help with this. anyone heard of that before?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ronaldphl:
My touch screen is dead after developing this

My Touch Pro 2 developed this newton rings this afternoon... and several hours later.. my touch screen ceased to work... My symptoms are the almost the same as discussed here... No pressure had been exerted on the phone and I have remapped most of the keys so I mainly use keyboard to control my touch pro 2...

So sad that HTC's quality control has dwindled to such a level.. My Universal withstand the test of time and has been my trusted companion for over 4yrs - a period which I considered brilliant in this age of "throw-away"ism... while my TP2's paint started to peel off the 2nd week I carried it with me... first on the silver rim ... the metal paint peeled off and left an eyesore here and there... then the area around keyboard... the movement of sliding and moving scratched off a 3mm of paint at the lower right hand corner...

And today.. the sudden death... luckily it is still under warranty and I will burn the stock rom back and return it
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stunno:
Mine started with the oil in mid December and by the end of December the touch screen stopped working completely. Vodafone UK swapped it without any problems at all
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dougstoner:
I've never heard of this, but I would imagine this would make it worse. If you were to leave it in the fridge, it would obviously cool down. When you take it out, condensation could form on the inside of the device due to the difference of temp between the inside and the ambient room temp. I don't think I would recommend doing this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ronaldphl:
Today, I returned my phone to HTC care center for the repair. The customer service officer told me it should cost me nothing and I followed up asking if it's a very common problem.. he shrugged and smile.

From google, I found alot of newer HTC phones will sooner or later developed this newton ring.. apparently a quality control problem of HTC. Hope they will rectify it in the future models coz' they shouldn'r expect consumer changing phones every half a year..

My universal takes over as my daily phone now... still going strong and sturdy... I just love this phone.. even after 5 years, it shows no sign of outdatedness :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Nittany:
Just to follow up on mine: Verizon did replace it, no questions. The guy at the store seemed to be pretty familiar with the issue.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] chrisrj28:
Omg my phone is doing exactly this same thing! I thought I was the only one with this issue. Mine looks just like the first pic, with half an inch around each edge. I called Tmo and they are sending me a new (aka refurb) phone right now. Hope it doesn't happen again

[G1 Apps and Games] ninjavampire:
is it possible to port iphone apps over to android?
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
Depends on what you mean by port. If you mean "completely rewrite to operate in a similar fashion" then in most cases yes. If you mean take the iPhone app and run it through some kind of magickal program that converts it into a functional apk... no.
[G1 Apps and Games] ninjavampire:
yes by port i mean completely rewrite the the code to allow a program to run in a similar fashion. is that hard to do?
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
"Hard" is a pretty subjective word.

iPhone apps are written in Objective C with the Cocoa framework. Android is written in Java with subsets of the Java framework libraries and specialized Android frameworks. While they're not completely disparate, they are still distinct languages. The ease of moving from one language and development framework to another depends on the experience and capability of the programmer and the complexity of the codebase (e.g. it will probably be easier to port a tic-tac-toe puzzle than a rpg). Also, the more generically and modularly a codebase is written, the easier it will be to move to a different platform. Some applications are the sort that need to be supported long term (mail clients, social networking apps, etc.) These will generally tend to be written with a mind for long term maintainability and thus be written more cleanly and modularly. Otoh, apps like games and single-purpose apps tend to not be written with long term maintenance in mind. They may be written more sloppily and thus be more difficult to port without a complete ground up rewrite.

In the end though, for most development studios with real paid programmers, it's not a matter of difficulty (most modern programmers have atleast some Java knowledge) but a matter of business. In short, business development staff will calculate how much potential profit there is to be had from various options for a potential future project and typically pick that which is the most profitable. For multiplatform developers, generally that means creating cheap one-off iphone apps. Some of the most profitable apps are really simplistic things like fart apps or really simple games.
[G1 Apps and Games] ninjavampire:
ok thank you for your help i understand it a lot clearer now. really wish i knew more than just basic javascript...
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
It's never too early or too late to start learning a new language, if you have the will and time. There are plenty of self-teach Java guides online.

Edit: I meant a programming language, ofc, but I just realized that that also applies to human languages as well.

Hi,

I just installed on my HD:

"Dutty's WM6.5 R8 Turbo"

and on my "Himalya" (you remember this oooold XDA2):

"Swampy395_Hima_23001_5_0_60_v1_20"

I couldnt believe what I noticed comparing them in speed.

I didn' do any benchmark but even comparing the scroll speed and smoothness of WM6.5 statmenu -> my Hima is much faster!!! (really smoth while on HD i could notice some hangs)

Could it really be just cause of the higher resolution?

Or is it cause of the different WM versions or anything else?

Is there anything I could do 2 speed up my HD.

(Think Dutty already cooks in the bet2 driver does he?)

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sosojerk:
The higer res makes the difference.

So I assume that your old device is QVGA right?

If so than I would expect to be much faster.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] FrEcP:
Y - think Hima is on 320x240 while HD is 800x480 - I know it's lower a quater of HD

But it's hard, to notice that the HD just can't handle its own resolution

while a !6 Year old! device is fast an smooth with same the system.
