How is it a ware? :confused: Ebook...

Removed link anyway.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Docavelli:
Thanks for asking this question pinetreehater. I've searched for the answer and not really found what I was looking for. I wanted to ask this myself but, as you stated, I didn't want to get noob-bashed.

I have some programming knowledge. I took some of the older langauges in highschool *mid 80's* :o :D (basic (of course), cobol, and assembler). And was quite good at it. IMHO. But I didn't really follow it after that and have basically forgot all of it.

I have a question.

Once I've got the books. How do I practice using them on my pc?
[Shadow General] okiesho:
I upgraded my Shadow OS to WM 6.1 a while ago. Don't get me wrong, I love the upgrade, but I'm having mechanical problems with my phone. I need to downgrade my OS to 6.0 so I can have it replaced under warranty.

I just think it's bogus that having WM 6.1 will void my warranty even though it has nothing to do with the problem I'm expiriencing.

Can anyone help?
[Shadow General] dmtaub:
Try the Allshadow wiki. There is a link for the T-Mobile 6.0 upgrade which will downgrade your phone. Here is the link:

[Shadow General] stewartsoda:
I had to do the same thing, after a flash I got the "driver not loaded" problem with my wifi.

Downgraded, went throught the whole warranty process, everything went fine.

The tech couldn't figure out why the driver wasn't loaded etc... They were very confused. They did replace it though.
[Shadow General] tonyc0642:
If he was any kind of tech at all he would have known the wifi driver issue is very common with the Shadow. Glad someone hooked you up with the AllShadow wiki, it's the best resource in my opinion.

hi,

I have searched all forums and tried various solutions such as adding .lnk files to \Windows folder but not found a solution yet.

What i wish to do is disable the short press on the Power hardware button so that the device does not go into the stanby mode.

I appreciate any help i get!

Thanks!!

I am gonna be selling my G1 and I need to save the current contacts to my sim. Is there a way to do that yet? And if not, is there a place on the net where I can view my contacts so I can manually enter them into my next phone?

EDIT: n/m i see google mail has my contacts... but is there a way to export to sim or no?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deadite66:
not that i know of, depending on the phone your going to buy it may have sync software with it that can import them.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
I don't know about cupcake but if your on hero it gives the option.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikey:
At this moment you Can Not export.

I cant see this feature implemented since it syncs with google.

Importing i can understand, maybe coming from a non-android platform phone.

Exporting, you can sync your outlook with google, google with outlook and go from there.

I'm sure there are sites.

None come to mind right now.

Edit: Try goosync

I would like to know if there is any registry hack or something to increase the volume of selfrecorded videos? Whenever i record a video the volume is really really low. Is the xperia mic just crappy or what?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] mdot01:
could anyone recommend a good currency conversion application?

it is too bad that HTC has not incorporated this into TF3D already like the stocks application.

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] vijaydesor:
Best general converter I have come acroos is here http://freewareppc.com/calculator/mssconverter.shtml

It will convert just about any measure for you and the currency converter can be set to auto-update through activesync. Great ap IMHO
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
If you just want to know the rate, you can use the stock application.

EURJPY=x gives you the rate from Euro to Yen, JPYPHP=x gives you the rate from Japanese Yen to Philippine Pesos.

But of course that is only the exchange rate, you cannot convert.

I use WorldMate, but that is not a free application.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] buzz83:
SPB Traveller will give you currency info, flight details, world time and weather (+more).

It's a paid app but well and truely worth it.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] de049:
Hi all,

Hope you can assist. My HTC Touch Dual keeps establishing Data connections via GPRS despite my clearly stating it should only do so manually.

Sometimes the connections remain active for hours. My bill last month almost gave me a heart attack :)

I have the Manila 2D on it, but i'm not sure how i checked the version, can someone advise? If its at all necessary for you to help.....

I have added an entry into the phones registry to tell it to disconnect data connections after 30 secs. It could care less that i've done that, coz i've just checked there's a connection established for the past 2 hours!!!! I have not once pressed the sync or send/receive buttons manually, so dont know why its doing this .

Someone, please advise......

thanks a million!!!

How do you modify the stock CClock panel?

I would like to change the date to show long date instead of short date.

Is there an easy way to modify the stock CClock panel to sow the long date (long date includes the day text where short date only shows mm/dd/yyyy).

Thanks.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drlinden:
Hi, one question I can't seem to find the answer too. When doing the fix, I get to Step 6, only have one COM listed, how do I :

(You will have to do this once for each of the two USB ports. In my case, I had to manually add the port, and no ports appeared in the list to be added. I just added the ports listed in device manager and Vista's add new hardware wizard.)

I need help walking through adding a Com with XP on my PC...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jadesse:
I had a simular issue that I never got resolved. Fortueately for me I did need to do the fix anyway.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drlinden:
Well the originator of the Post with the fix

He notes that he created two COM's with device manager and a Vista app, XP must have something similar. Hope someone has an answer for me.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drlinden:
still searching for an answer...

It obviously can be done, does anyone know how to add COM port with XP??
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] slow88lx:
I went through the whole process way too many times trying everything to get GPS to work. The final solution to my problem was to follow this Wiki:

1. Flash old Sprint ROM (flashed it 3 times just because) no customizations

2. Flash newer Verizon ROM (flashed it 3 times just because) no customizations

3. Flash NFSFAN V13 ROM

4. Install NFSFAN Verizon provisioning cab

5. Install NFSFAN Telus GPS registry

Prior to installing the Telus GPS registry I was only able to get GPS locks outside and even then it took a damn long time to finally get a lock. Not to mention when I did get a lock it was very weak.

Just like you I tried a million other solutions, including the AGPS instructions you're referring to, with no success. I could never get QPST to see my phone. I had given up hope of ever having AGPS, then I installed the Telus GPS cab. Now I don't know if the Verizon GPS cab will also work, but I had read a bunch of crap saying Verizon is actively stopping AGPS on their end so I decided not to bother with that.

If you have already done the steps I listed above then I would go give the Telus cab a shot. Just while I was typing this I got a 6 satellite lock indoors and in under a minute.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drlinden:
I solved the problem of QPST

There is one edit that needed to be done to get QPTS to see my phone. The other guys are saying that the agpsfix is the one to have.

I will have to figure out who wrote that post and hopefully have him walk me through getting the COM set up...
[General Questions and Answers] foghead:
After having this phone for a while, I decided to search out tweaks for it. I have DL'd the Diamond TF3D config setup but seeing as how there's no auto installer, I'm not certain how to install... any help/links/guidance would be greatly appreciated!

My computer knowledge is limited but should still be adequate for this type of operation.

Thanxx in advance...

My mates got the first one for his Touch Diamond 2 and my HTC hero doesn't fit inside it very well, too tight.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] ewans:
I've seen this as well - looks nice. It's a generic one though, so don't know how well it would fit. I'd much rather get a dedicated one (Beyza hopefully) though.

[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] immya:
i really doubt they would be a good fit for the hero and ive heard that the hero rubs on the inside of them resulting a smudged look on the hero
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] simon211175:
I've got one similar to the second link, bought from the same seller HERE. My Hero fits nicely inside it and delivery from Hong Kong was quick.

I've just received a gel case with protector from here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180415010020

Really happy with it, and the screen protector is actually really really decent (i.e. fits the whole glass screen) and applied easily with only one tiny tiny mark that I can hardly notice. Not tested over the long term, but I think I paid 30p extra over the case to get this.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] immya:
yeah ive got a gel case also, the screen protector extra is a must!!

together theyre great at protecting my phone and extremely durable
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] SimplySquare:
only thing with that is the phone wont fit in the dock with a case like this on. nice though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] htc fan89:
do the cases scratch the back side?
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] immya:
Nah it doesn't scraTch it. I've had the gel case on my hero for around 3 months now and the back is in pristine condition
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] crash_194:
this is the case i use, its the best one i have had yet, it comes with a pretty decent screen protector aswell. Its the hardest, most rigid skin i've had but its still flexible enough that it won't crack or split and it much better quality than the flexishield ones (i've tried one of those aswell). My phone takes some serious hammer and it still looks brand new after 6 months! lol...which even surprises me.

Capdase Smart Pocket

I should be getting my hero at the weekend thanks to an upgrade with t-mobile and I really like the look of the Capdase smart pocket for it.

I've had a look on mobilefun (linked above) and also found another site that lists it called vinko's treasures. Neither of them seem to have it in stock.

Does anyone know anywhere that stocks these cases or of any similar pouch cases that are designed to fit the hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] foxmeister:
I was using a gel case up to about 2 or 3 months ago, but it started to yellow quite badly. I stopped using it, and my Hero has been fine without it.

Why don't try something which is in good quality

I bought a case from ebay before, It is attractive because it sells in a lower price,

but seems I was unlucky, the case damage within about 2 month - loose sewing and can't fit to the charger hole:mad:

I try serveal online store, which I would highly recommend to you is PDair,

you may check this out:

http://www.pdair.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=10100000_900000_11000759

They keep the quality well and the price can be acceptable
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] MedicalFlyer:
I bought the HTC case for now. Seems to protect the phone just fine if not the best fitting case going. I've found another site that stocks the Capdase one called MobiMega (can't post links just yet) and the price works out quite cheap too. Might have to get one ordered up to compare.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] ICO187:
FWIW i have bought many of the BLACK ones for the HERO & BLUE,RED,BLACK for the TOUCH 3G rubber coated hard cases from verious ebay sellers they all so far last 2 months then crack or tabs brake.

the best lasting one was the clear case. it just seemed a little more solid & better fit.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] MedicalFlyer:
Received my Capdase Smart Pocket case today. It's a very nice case for the hero if you're looking for a strong and secure pouch design. The phone fits just right and it is very snug, so much so that even once you've pullted the tab to eject the phone it's still securely held. I've even tried shaking it held upside down with the phone half in and it didn't move a bit. Mobimega seem to have a good stock of them and their shipping's fairly priced and quite speedy too from Hong Kong.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] da_hool:
Does the Capdase Smart Pouch add extra bulk? I have a Sena Ultraslim pouch for my BlackBerry and love it because it adds very little bulk. The Capdase looks very nice and I like the form fit for the chin, but the leather looks a bit bulkier.

Can you take some pics? Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] MedicalFlyer:
the Capdase case adds very little bulk, in fact the only added size is the seam that runs round the edge. I've had it a little while now and my phone's fine. It shares a pocket with keys and change and case happily takes any bumps and knocks. I'll take some pics and pm you the links.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] da_hool:
Awesome! A side profile view would be nice! Thanks very much for fast response, I am itching to pull the trigger on this or the Beyza Ultraslim.

[Touch HD General] lancsuk:
on on htc touch hd go to start >setting>system

you then have the encryption tool that says when you activate it

"encrypted files can only be read on this device "

so may be a daft question but when i have this activated can i connect my phone via active sync or as disk drive and still see the files and open them and my memory card ?

what im trying to get at is if anyone found my phone they can read the files as they have the phone. what has been encrypted ?

thanks
[Touch HD General] Rudegar:
I'd say no

I'd also say reflash with another rom and you can't read it ever again

even hardreset the phone and you can never read it again

it's made to make sure you're most secret stuff never gets out if you're phone

is stolen not to make sure your stuff will ever be something you can retrieve if something goes wrong
[Touch HD General] lancsuk:
are you saying that you think the encryption is not working ?
[Touch HD General] Digital Outcast:
No. That's not what he's saying. He's just advising that you not use it. The encryption key is stored on your phone's memory, so that if you ever hard-reset or flash another ROM, the encryption key will be lost and you won't be able to access the data on your memory card, ever again. You would have to do a full format of the card to even be able to use it again.
[Touch HD General] lancsuk:
thanks for clearing that up .

could you recommend any software that i can install on the phone that requires

password to access the memory card while still in the phone and require password if memory card was taken out of phone and put into a pc memory card reader

thanks
[Touch HD General] Digital Outcast:
I don't really know of anything that would be compatible across multiple systems/platforms like that :(
[Touch HD General] jimbi:
I just googled this and found the following software:

http://www.aikosolutions.com/encryption/secubox-encryption-vs-windows-mobile-encryption/

Just some thoguhts for using the native encryption...

I wonder if the encrytion key can be extracted from the phone...?

That way it could be added again on another ROM. Also, the key could then be used in a desktop application that implements the same algorithm (AES, I think). This would allow the card's contents to be accessed outside of the phone.

I have a very annoying problem with my TP2. The device name changes all the time. I set it once to a name of my preference but suddenly after some time it was HTC_TP2 and now it is HTC33.

In general, I'm synchronizing my device with two PCs (WindowsXP and Vista).

This is only happened when i tried to sync with two different PC.

Anyone having the same problem? or if this is a Microsoft thing?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
It's a Microsoft thing. It changes usually because of a naming conflict.

What was the name you used?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radiowc:
I am using "HTP_TP2" .... and when sync, it changed it to "HTP33"
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mesquire:
Try a name without underscore.

[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] navenedrob:
When you flash this ROM, it will come with the default Indigo theme, there is nothing wrong with this theme you can just switch to another theme afterwards! Also this ROM takes a while to load, it is 23XXX build which is newer and takes a while to load at first! When you get into OS you will be confronted with the OEM help screens, just skip through them, everything will be fine! I am still working on this ROM so I might post updated version soon ;)

-how can i adjust the brightnes (fn+p doesnt work)?

-the taskmanager dowsnt open by pressing fn+ok

-i cant hang up calls???
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] navenedrob:
Remember that these builds are for testing purposes ;) There will be bugs. This is a chance to try out the latest WM 6.5 builds on your Treo. I will make more builds and post them so you can try them :). Just be patient while I build them.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] navenedrob:
ROM updated, download the new copy. Should be more stable and hopefully some bugs fixed.

Remember to change your regional settings after you boot! Settings > System > Regional Settings. Also set regional clock to h:mm:ss tt for 12HR time! Reboot all should be well ;)
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] dgourd:
I have found this ROM to be very snappy. It works very well speed wise with no lag. Wait until the tutorial pops up and quickly go through it. Then it works perfectly. To lock the device, just press the white (fn) button and the end key. I understand that this build isnt perfect and am willing to deal with the small problems.

Warning: Back up cause I lost all my contacts and calendar info. Pretty much all my personnel data. Luckily i did backup.

UPDATE: This is talking about the ROM before navendrob did his first update.

UPDATE #2: The buttons settings do work. Had to soft reset a couple of times.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] dgourd:
I dont know if this is just me but my phone wont boot into the OS after your new ROM. It could be that it got corrupted during the download and extraction can someone else check. I still have the original if you need it.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] navenedrob:
I'll take a look when I get home from work :) I just flashed it and it work OK for me.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] dgourd:
On your first ROM, is there a way to disable the lock where you must press the center button. I use s2u2 and that is messing it up.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] dgourd:
You can adjust brightness by going to Settings -> System -> Brightness

also, check the buttons setting for the fn+ok at Settings -> Personnel -> Buttons

I cant hang up calls either. The talk screen doesn't come up.
[Palm Treo 750 ROM Development] dgourd:
Moreover, on the time issue where it is at the 24-hour clock. I couldn't find that option in regional settings for English (US). The only time settings had a 24 hour clock. I switched it to English (Canada) and was able to just the time and date settings to match standard US formats. Hope this helps.
