Hi guys

I bought my HTC Snap from Singapore. Experienced the same "weird" feeling, but only on the Call (Green) and End (Red) buttons.

Seems to be getting a tiny bit better after using it for a week (or maybe i've become accustomed haha)

Agree with you on the screen proportion thingy. I still love my old E61. Keyboard + Screen was spacious and lovely. Fast forward a few years and this is the best HTC could come up with? :(

Still scouring the forum for applications to customize my home screen (panels). WinMo 6.5. Any tips? Thanks in adv! :)

The ROM i'm using drains the battery relatively quickly, compared to say the standard Sony O2 software. I'm going to a festival this weekend and want to preserve the battery for as long as possible so will obv use the advice given in threads on this, but any specific ROM that is best for not using up the juice? Cheers

Hi, i buy the new Topaz. Now i installed many navi-soft, TomTom, Copilot and Sygix. But the navigation lags and the diplays scrolls and moves slowly. Also the navigation run 10-20 Meters "after". The next action calls to late. No POIS activatedandthe system is clean.

On my Mda 4 Compact with 400 Mhz the navigation was very smooth and godly.

Could anybody help plz.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] sualc:
Try to disable A-GPS( assisted GPS) with Advanced Config or HD Tweak but keep in mind the following:

-TomTom is not officially supported for Diamond2, so if you made it work with the tricks found in xda, that's the best we can have now.

-I'm also using Navigon Igo8, and it is working the same as Tomtom (good enough for me), but also Igo8 had to be "arranged" to work on D2.

I think we have to wait for more updated and specific navigators for D2 to get smoother screens.

-Even though I am not experiencing the lag you talked about (10-20m), It could be quite normal, civil GPS system is intentionally not accurate to 1m!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] nunein:
TT7, MN7 and iGO are running (more or less) acceptable for me but I'm not satisfied with the GPS lag (many others report that, too). The GPS position was much more accurate with the Kaiser I previously was using: TomTom and Navigon 7 no lag and a noticable lag with iGO (this is what many others using TMC with iGO report about as well).

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] sualc:
I used Tomtom (5,6 & 7) and Igo in Artemis,Kaiser and Topaz, they run everywhere the same way, except that now I have a larger portion of the map (as we use VGA version). I think that RAM&CPU are not important at this point, we only need to wait for OFFICIAL versions for our device, if there will ever be;)

Yeah... here comes the noob! RAWR! :-p

You have probobly been asked these questions a billion times, but i h ave tried searching but i just get more and more confused haha

Ok, first quastion... What is "radio" i hear people asking "what Radio are you using" and this has got me confuuuused :-s Same with HardSPL ??

And Also, i have had a Diamond for a while now, and have updated the ROM once, but only to an upgraded version of the standard ROM i belive...

Im looking into putting a new Custom ROM on like one of the many on this site, so im just trying to get my head around atleast the basics... haha :-)

Cheers for you help all :-D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mancsoulja:
The "radio" is the driver that controll the radio stack inside the diamond, diffrent versions will have an effect on the signal, power consumption and gps, its best to try them and see witch works best for you, as for hard spl, that is a custom bootloader witch allowes you to flash unsigned roms like the custom ones you mentioned :) lol

If there was in fact an official 6.5 to upgrade to, then yes, there would be no reason why you could not. But since there is no official WM 6.5 then there is no point.

[G1 General] Dreddge:
on the Toshiba TG01

So, there have been a couple of threads posted on the TG01 in the general forums. However, Im curious to know what G1 users initial impressions are.

When I first got my Dev phone, I fell in love with it. It is the most versatile phone I have ever owned (and I have owned alot). I haven't even taken a second look at alot of the newer phone that have been coming out, because I was convinced that I would keep my g1 until until it fell apart.

Once I saw, the TG01, my initial impression was that it was sexy, and powerful. I watched a 25 minute in depth review on youtube (i have attached a link below). After the review was over, I was amazed to say the least. I am really considering selling my G1, to purchase one of these when it releases. I have a couple of reservations though. Namely, the 1000 mAh battery, and the fact that I would get no support on XDA. I know there are other sites out there for WinMO devices, but none are as good as XDA.

I decided to make this thread so I can hear your initial thoughts on the TG01.

[G1 General] supremeteam256:
traitor..........lol
[G1 General] Glen L:
hi, I've used a few smartphones in the past.

Here are my thoughts on the Toshiba Tg01

I've used PalmOS, Windows Mobile Standard, Windows Mobile Pro and now Android.

Toshiba Tg01 is indeed a sleek device, and is fast. But remember, its still WinMo underneath it. WinMo although uses a touchscreen (pro only not standard) is not optimized to use with our fingers, but with a stylus. Sure they did some customization but like HTC, they can never turn the whole OS into finger touch friendly, even if they did most part of it, 3rd party apps will always be for stylus input. Now if you're used to stylus then why not? but if you want to use your fingers then I suggest you wait for a better device.

Here's an interesting article http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2009/02/03/toshiba-tg01-hands-on-photo-fest/img_6540/

Even they said its easy to use your fingers, I doubt that its in capacitive touchscreen, so you're stuck with stylus I guess :)
[G1 General] alritewhadeva:
Wonder how much it's going to cost. Anyone going to dig very deep to get this haha
[G1 General] Dreddge:
I don't plan on spending a fortune. I will sell my G1, and put about $200 to $250 on top of that. Its selling for 99 euros in UK (I read on phonedog). So paying anymore than $500 - $600 wont work for me.

There are a couple of US sites preselling it for $799.99. THAT AMAZING considering the official price hasn't been anounced yet.

As far as the stylus is concerned, im not too concerned about that. I mainly just want it for media, and some of the 3rd party apps that I like (which are finger friendly). If I get into a pinch, my ink pen has a stylus built in....I like android, but since I don't know a whole lot about modding android, im not too attached to the OS to switch back to WinMo. I really enjoyed my tilt when I had it.
[G1 General] goldenarmZ:
It looks sexy, but I could never go back to wimo, no matter what interface you lay over it. The openness of android has seduced me. I suspect that any natural born tinkerer would struggle switching back to a closed OS.

1000mah battery.. are you serious...? With a 1ghz snapdragon to push, that thing's going to last about 10 minutes.. and we thought our G1s were bad..
[G1 General] Dreddge:
That's what Im hearing (1000 MaH). It supposedly has the same talk time and standby time as the iphone. I too, have a hard time believing that. I will definately wait to see some consumer reviews on it before I drop my hard earned cash!

Hey Guys,

Ever notice how the AT&T ROMs have differen menu for SMS/MMS/Email? When you select New it shows "Text Message" instead of SMS and so on...I am trying to get that on an HTC ROM, can't figure out where it is hidden in the AT&T ROM to copy over to my kitchen.

Anyone have a clue?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Da_G:
It's in one of the .provxml's in \OperatorPkg I believe,

I recommend using a program like EmEditor that can search through a subset of files in all subdirectories:

i.e. search folder \oem for *.rgu, *.provxml, all subdirectories

then you can search for "Text Message" and it'll pop right up :)

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bandis710:
I really like Winmo 6.5 and the winmo 6.5 start menu, I've seen a few roms where the startmenu contains folders like applications, multimedia, tools etc. The programs installes can then be found in the according folders. I have the folders , but the programs are not in them, they are just in the startmenu. How can I put the programs in the folders ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] harolds:
Windows / Start Menu / Programs is where the shortcut is you want to move, and the folders are folders in Programs, just move to the appropriate folder.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] MHTCR:
how can i change the looks of those folders??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] sinaplenty:
Use your Registry Editor to go to HKLM\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start - you'll see that all of the existing shortcuts and folders have icon values. Just create similar for your new folder (ie I copied the icon value for the default Email shortcut to apply to a "messaging" folder.

Thanks it seems to work fine just a little slow on the net. Thanks again.
[HTC Excalibur] jeonatl3:
No problem, you can't do it via. Bluetooth which is due to a limitation of the iPod touch rather than the phone. WiFi is the only other way :)
[HTC Excalibur] #2!:
Is it limitations or restrictions set by Apple? Would jail breaking a ipod help that?
[HTC Excalibur] jeonatl3:
The Apple Bluetooth stack in the Touch is currently used for the Nike+ thingy and also in the latest software, for A2DP. Everything else is clearly restricted by Apple. I doubt JBing would help, think probably you would need to rewrite the Bluetooth stack, drivers and write software to handle whatever you wanted to do, e.g. file transfers.

Seems like a big job and with no technical documentation, a difficult one too!

[G1 General] Clyborg:
For the past 4 weeks I had HTC send me 2 replacement batteries and T-mobile sent me two replacement phones (one with a new battery), and my phone still overheats (over 100 degrees).

I swaping all my microsdhc and even took it out, and did notsolve the problem either.

The only thing left is the Sim card. Is it possible for a sim card to cause this? :confused: This is getting extremely frustrating.

The good thing is both HTC and TMobile have been really understanding, if not...I would be on other carrier with a different phone.

Jason
[G1 General] goldenarmZ:
The sim is just a storage chip with a tiny amount of data on.. it doesn't actively do anything. It must be caused by something else.. is your phone overheating while charging or connected by usb, or does it happen all the time?
[G1 General] Clyborg:
Only when I use the phone (talk, gps, edge, or wifi...FYI, I'm only running one at a time) it overheats.

Anyway, I just got my new sim and the back looks differnet than the one I got in November.

I have to say my phone runs cooler w/o the sim.

If you want to monitor the temp of your phone, download the Y-mobile "My Account" from the market, and check the battery status.

same problem here

I was going through the same thing. I mostly ran into this when I was using my fone as a thether. I kinda got worried so I contacted tmo andhtc and they said that it will get hot like that because of the wifi running as well as my screen never timing out. To top it all I was tethering through the usb. So it easly ran up to 115F. When it got that high I would jus bull out the battery and leave the back off for about 5 mins. If u run into this issue while ur fone is doing little or no activity then worry but if ur using data or multiple apps at once then its no biggie.
[G1 General] steveyos:
Aw jeez, I went to check setcpu and my post went bye bye

So a high temp all the time ISN'T normal?

I got:

JF 1.51 ADP

SetCPU 128/528

Advanced Task Manager, and I tend to keep everything killed besides aHome and Better Keyboard

I don't see any problems besides it giving me third degree burns and setting whatever I place it on on fire, goes slow hot or cold too
[G1 General] innerspace:
SetCPU

128/528 is a big jump, why not use default 384/528? Might help some of your performance issues.

Just a thought.
[G1 General] steveyos:
I thought it scaled itself accordingly and only went to 128 when I'm not running anything or the screen's off to save battery?
[G1 General] goldenarmZ:
It doesnt scale instantly.. cyanogen's done some init.rc mods to help this in his newer builds but theres always a reaction time between opening an app and the speed ramping up.

What new palmOS?

PalmOS is dead and isn't coming back unless someone picks up Access Linux (which is said to have a palmOS Garnet 6 VM only for legacy palmOS support), but that doesn't seem likely as they've been pushing it as stable for years and have yet to sell it to anybody. It is now also pointless to support legacy palmos apps since *virtually nobody* has been developing for that platform since it died a few years ago.

This new thing that palm is selling... is not palmos. Its "webos" and is basically what apple phone v1 was and what chromeos sounds like it will be... i.e. no locally installed apps (except phone stuff) - all apps are net apps.
[G1 General] jashsu:
While I doubt it's the cause of the overheating, SIM chips are more than just passive storage. They do contain processors and can perform calculations (one of the main functions of SIMs in phones is to provide cryptographic computation for network access.

Overheating

My phone got up to 102 once. It was from having it set at 583 MHz constant. I took it out of my pocket and almost dropped it because it was hot. Also as someone said earlier, it gets very hot while tethering. Any prolonged data use will cause it to heat up. I don't think it's really anything to worry about though. I'd imagine that it would cut off before any sort of damage could occur
