[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hey-yer-barred:
There must be some sort of .exe emulator or some way of getting it to work.

Ive seen far more powerful things working on the HTC....this is nothing compared to them!

Come on developers, please please please help me!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] red_hanks:
Yeah..would love to see this game on our winmo
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bigdyl69:
I would just be thankful for any new decent game releases on WinMo, ever since the iPhone has come along all other platforms seem to have been forgotten about
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] xtacybyme:
+1.... son wants that game
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] enyaj:
+1. want the game too
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ASK768:
i suggest you guys take it to the developers although, tbh, i doubt they would make a game for wm6.x

maybe wp7 will get a version of the game.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Celsius1379:
there is a flash version on their site, cant someone download it and port it, becouse i cant even download it
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hey yer barred:
i've seen the flash version, its only a demo - but still fun.

ill give this a go myself and see how i get on ... but remember it isnt the full version unfortunatly.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ASK768:
had a go at getting the .swf but no luck. used firefox and the only flash animations you can download (that work) are the banner ads. if you download what i think is the game itself, its just a white box.

would be nice to have this game...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxXSnake23XxX:
is there an app to do this??

ok so i already have cyanogen 3.6.5 and i want to make afew theme mods. i have the theme template and i would like to know...do i just install it (update.zip) or do i need to reinstall the rom entirely
[G1 General] cal3thousand:
The template is meant to be modded and THEN resigned and used as an update.zip
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jonzz:
I went to update s2u2! so i uninstalled old version, went to install new and it just kept saying "installing has been unsuccesful" so i try and reinstall the old one... and that isnt working! so i hard reset and clear everything off and its still not working?! any ideas? cheers! i cant even unzip anything to my memory card which has over 3gb free! just says ZIP: NOT ENOUGH MEMORY.

thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Adin7:
I think I have an ideea

copy EnableRapi.cab and Cert_SPCS.cab to your Diamond( with ActiveSync, or USB connection), then install them into the device(execute them), and then try again to install the new rom
[General Accessories] kempas:
Do the 3 in 1 adaptors like http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=171013 and http://www.inkino.co.uk/zen/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=126&products_id=1502 pass through the FM antenna?

I.e. would they allow me to charge via the USB connection and attach the extUSB headphones or the extUSB to 3.5mm adaptor cable for the FM aerial?

Is there a cable that is purely for aerial use and doesn't disable/route the audio?

Thanks.
[General Accessories] kempas:
Alternatively, is there a similar multi adaptor but on the end of a 90cm or so long cable that already has a long enough run for the FM aerial so no additional connection is required purely for FM reception...?
[General Accessories] poetryrocksalot:
I've ordered an FM aerial...only if it works shall I give you the ebay link.

Please tell me which radio stations you want to listen to.
[General Accessories] kulen:
I have two adapters for my polaris.

The first one is 3in1 original HTC.

Second one is some cheap pigtail just htcExt to 3.5mm.

FM radio works well with both of them.

only difference is that with 3in1 I can use my headphones (without mic) and built in phone mic for talking.

with pigtail I can't so I have to unplug phones for the other side to be able to hear me.

But that's a whole other story. FM works
[General Accessories] poetryrocksalot:
Does FM radio work without headphone connected?
[General Accessories] kulen:
With pigtail I only have to plug it in and FM works. of course that little piece of wire is not that good antenna so it's better when headphones are plugged in.

But yes, FM works with just pigtail adapter plugged in, without headphones.

With 3in1 adapter I don't know and it is in my car so I can't check it now.

Since now the Dash 3G is out, is it going to get its own forum?

There's already a forum for the maple instead of dash 3g here on xda, just like our forum here, that's for the excalibur instead of dash.

Dash 3G hacks

Would anyone happen to know how to hack the dash 3g to make the left softkey in the text/multimedia 'delete' instead of 'reply' ? it is 'delete' for the emails & used to be 'delete' in the old dash. it's driving me nuts. got my reg editor all ready to go if someone has it figured out.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bzerk1:
if im on JACHero 2.63 can i just put the Cyanogen Rom rename it to update.zip, and then Alt+w to wipe and Alt+s to flash the cyanogen rom on? or will this not work? if this is not the way to do it, what steps should i take to do get from JACHero 2.63 to Cyanogen 3.6.1?

Also whats your recomendation on the best cupcake rom, i dont really like the JF 1.51 cause i cant play music and recieve texts and calls at the same time.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alritewhadeva:
Fix filesystems (alt+f) on cm's recovery 1.31., wipe and flash .I recommend cyanogen's 3.6.5 .Latest version of his cupcake mod xD
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukekirstein:
Yup, that's exactly how you would do it, ideally.

However, I've read many-a-time where people coming from Hero ROM's have issues going to a Cupcake ROM. This is because the Apps2SD in Hero saves weird files to the SD card and creates havock when you install a cupcake build. I would recommend completely formatting your SD card (specifically your EXT2/3/4 or swap partition) before getting on Cyan's.

Also, it is indeed best that you go with the most recent build, 3.6.5 :D. It's definitely the best ROM out there right now, and I'm very pleased with it except for some minor theme-ing problems right now.

so i'm using XN resource editor, i'm new to this- i figured ut how to export the images, but i don't know how to replace them, anyone care to guide me?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jdmsleepr:
use resource tuner...its the best that i know of...its what i use...if you want i can mod the file for you...just give me the images that you want to use and ill see what i can do...if not get that program and change them yourself...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] GustavTheLion:
thanks for the offer, but i am here to learn, i got restuner and i opened up the file and replaced it pretty simple, but then after putting it in my windows directory there was no homescreen, so i had to switch back to the original :confused:

do the images have to a certain type? restuner said they were .png so i ripped the files from the .dll and they were .png so i opened them with GIMP then colorized them to light blue and then saved them with default settings and but them back into the .dll, do i need to use special settings?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] jdmsleepr:
hey no prob...i like to do it and learn myself...i only offer cause alot do not...they just want it done...lol...alright...when saving you have to change and then click save as and put whatever and then add the ext .png...will save in .png and should be good to go...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] aiaob:
I've installed S2U2, and whenever my Galarm is supposed to go off, I've noticed, S2U2 unlocks the phone a minute before the alarm is supposed to go off, the phone stays unlocked and a minute later, it just goes back to standby with the alarm not launching..

Any suggestions?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vinsyl:
Hi,

I don't know exactly whats happened for you but I already use S2U2 and Galarm and I don't have any problem. I use the last version of S2U2 (v2.04, 10 July 2009 - VGA/WVGA version) and the last Galarm version (2.1.2)...

If I can do something...

Regards.

hello xda-dev community!

first of all... this is the one of the most amazing communities i have ever seen! this site and its members helped solving a lot of my problems and improved my mobile experience. thx!

as a business administration student in german i am actually writing my thesis about community based innovations

i asked my prof if i can bring in a practical example on how innovations and product improvements were created by community members and i want to use the xda community as a "real life example" how to generate product innovations for needs of consumers which were not recognized by manufacturers in a "

co-creative innovation process

"... means that i really would like get your ideas on this subject! :)

Subject: Transmitting your GPS-coordinates via SMS - to contacts & added functions like displaying your location and creating routes on maps

there is no "commercial" software solution for this... please correct me if im wrong.

please let me know ur ideas and questions...

also there is no phone that (by default) can send your GPS coordinates as sms combined with more useful information like showing your location and the given location on the map and creating routes, showing the distance in km/miles... please add more functions YOU are missing. all im writing is just theory and i dont know if it all options are possible...

i can think of options like

- sending the coordinates in certain periods e.g every 5/20/40... minutes. interesting for hikers and let people know where you are...in case of accidents.

- this "product" can be interesting for parents.

- could this solution "imitate" navigation with static maps without standard navigation software. is there a way of synchronizing to "locations" so that each party is updated in intervals ?

- ... ?

these are the current GPS apps for reading / sending coordinates:

- LocationSMS presented @ xda by user AX3L ...works and is very simply... but just sending coordinates nothing else.

- GPS Tracking - CodeProject

...havent tested yet...sounds good!

- GPSbySMS - looks good but created an error during install. but the description says that it can display the location on maps

examples of use - add more if u like

a) you are new in town and want to meet up with a friend... but at least one of you doesnt know the place. both use a gps phone (a-gps/gps) but havent installed any navigation software like tomtom.

b) your friends already met and you are too late... they call you and try to describe their location by telling you street names / places that none of you know...

c) your wife/son/daughter is out and wants you to pick him/her up...

d) you go hiking and want to send your location as a precaution...

e) forwarding several locations to groups...

Do you think this would be interesting for YOU ?! Have you ever looked for such a function ?

EDIT: of course i need some basic facts about the community itself e.g. founders, vision, dates, members (admins, mods, senior members ?...), # threads, # of downloads .... who are the xda-dev "founders" ?
[General Topics] the_goat:
...i guess it was too much...

where are the GPS experts?
[General Topics] AthenaLod:
first off, good luck with your study.

secondly, i am not really sure what kind of feed back you want. i like the idea, but google has the latitude function that does something similar to what you are doing.

finally, especially in the case of a hiker, power consumption can be an issue, where a hiker would prefer to keep power to make an emergency phone call rather than continuously running the gps and eating power that will be needed later if an accident happens.

i hope what i said was something you were looking for, once more good luck
[General Topics] the_goat:
thanks a lot!

mainly i want to get ur ideas on this function to see if is useful for the majority of mobile users who have GPS but use it just for "classic" navigation...

i havent checked google latitude? is it a WM application or just a google service?

hiking is just one example... the emergency call doesnt tell authorities your exact location... means they have to locate your mobile.

is there a gps forum @ xda where i can get more feedback about this? hoped that more people would be interested in this function =(

Where can i get background infos on the xda site itself? see the edit above (in red)
[General Topics] AthenaLod:
google maps latitude is for windows mobile. another application that does location sharing is mologogo, i have used it, and it is very good.

in the hiking situation, i was just saying that continuously sharing your location might drain the battery, and if an emergency situation happens, you won't have a phone to call for help.

there is no dedicated GPS forum in xda, each device has its own forum, and there gps issues specific to the device are discussed. the development and hacking forum has many general gps programs.

here is some info on xda-devs, from wikipedia, i don't know about other sources:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xda-developers

the main page has some info as well:

Great initiative.

I´ve been looking into this for quite some time. Two or three apps you would like to add to the list is:

- LocateMe http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/...-third-party-with-windows-mobile-gps-devices/

(is a trialware, 10 US bucks for a nag free license)

- RunGPS.net

More than just a send gps by sms but still usable.

- Trackme

Not as easy to use as locateme but with really nice options: http://luisespinosa.com/trackme_eng.html
[General Topics] OliH:
It seems that the community is not so keen to develop such a tool.:(

I am looking for long time for a tool to send GPS-Position via SMS. I tried GPS Tracker by Phonekai and GPS Location and investigated some others. Unfortunatelly every tool is missing some essential features.

The first feature is the format of the position data. I would like to choose the position format. E.g. GPS Location uses strictly dd,dddd. I would like to use the well known geocaching format dd mm,mmm.

Further it is important to have a link to navigation software on the ppc. There should be a parser to search incoming SMS for geocoordinates and automatically convert to waypoints in OziExplorer (.wpt) or TomTom POI (.ov2) and to show these on the map.

Can someone recommend a GPS-exchange software via SMS with Ozi and/or TomTom interface ???

Regards,

Oli

@olih

nothing useful in all the apps we posted ? have u tried GLOPUS ?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thecaptain0220:
Im sorry to bother everyone with another thread and yes ive read everything on the internet trying to get this solved.

I have an xv6900 that is obviously on Verizon. I can get the GPS to lock and have tried many things. Instead of going through everything I will tell you what I just did and you can let me know what I did wrong of what I'm missing.

-First my phone is unlocked with coke 2.3.1

-I just flashed the official Verizon 6.1 update to my phone

-I did not allow customizations to run

-I installed NFSFAN's 6.1 ROM and let customizations run

Ok that is all I have done right now and no GPS. I didn't do the aGPS fix yet because it takes a little while and the last time it didn't help.

Here is what im confused about

-With the official Verizon radio but a custom ROM do I need the Valhalla hack?

-Are there any other cabs that I need to get it to work? I have seen various provisioning cabs but none of them helped before.

If you have read this far thank you for taking your time and please let me know if you have any ideas on how I can get this working.

Thank You,

thecaptain0220
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] VZYGuy:
This is my understanding

(1) The XV6900 uses the onboard gpsOne chip to gather gps data. Unless you do the programming explained at

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix

the phone with custom ROMS will never get any gps information.

As near as I can tell the gps settings in the phone's registry have no effect on the XV6900 because the gpsOne chip does the work and it is programmed separate from the phone's ROM.

Mine works with the TELUS settings in the gpsOne programming and I can change the registry every which way and the gps still follows the gpsOne settings.

Hope this helps.

(2) The verizon aGPS server authenticates the caller and if you are not paying for Verizon navigator the server will not send back any data; effectively killing the aGPS ability of the phone.

That is why you see references to the TELUS aGPS settings. This directs the gpsOne chip tou use the TELUS aGPS server, this works as long as TELUS allows it to work.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thecaptain0220:
Thanks for the quick reply.

So if I flashed the official wm 6.1 Verizon update followed by NFSFAN's wm 6.1 ROM what fix should I do? Should I do Custom ROM aGPS, Verizon MR1 GPS, or Verizon MR2 GPS?

I am unclear when people say that Verizon cripples the GPS whether it is done in the Radio or the ROM.

I can flash a new radio too if that is what needs to be done. I wanted to keep the Verizon radio so that it said Verizon on start up but if I cant do that its not a big deal.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] VZYGuy:
When you flash the Verizon 5.1 update DO NOT let the customizations run.

When the 'customization in 3 seconds' window comes up reset your phone by pressing the stylus in the hole on the bottom of the phone.

You already have the Verzion radio and do not need any of the programs they are going to install because you are going to flash a custom ROM.

After it resets do the gpsOne programming explained at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=VerizonAGPSFix. This programs the gpsOne chip in the phone so it can communicate with an aGPS server. Use the TELUS settings for IP and PORT not the VERIZON ones in the Wiki.

TELUS IP = 216.198.139.92

TELUS PORT = 8889

Then load any custom ROM you want. the gpsOne programming is not affected by flashing a ROM to the phone, it will work with what ever one you choose to use.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jorakal:
Did you read this thread and do what it says? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=533639 I did and my XV6900 gps works great now.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thecaptain0220:
I was going to try that but I have heard that downgrading to an older radio is not a good idea. Has anyone done this? Is there a correct procedure to flash back to an older radio?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thecaptain0220:
I think I might have figured out one of my problems but I'm not sure where to go from here. I did allow the customizations to run on the official 6.1 upgrade a while back. I assumed that re flashing the upgrade and not allowing the customizations to run would fix this but I think I'm wrong, could someone confirm this for me? Is flashing back to an older ROM the only way to fix this? If so what steps can I follow to minimize the risk of bricking the phone when downgrading? If this is a totally bad idea someone please say so now.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jadesse:
The fact that you let the customizations run means you are fairly screwed. You can probably get your Gps to work. I would flash a pre-GPS ROM & start over if having a functioning GPS is important to you.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thecaptain0220:
Can someone tell me where I can get a stock carrier release for Verizon?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] VZYGuy:
To fix the problem with the customizations running try these steps. It worked for me and all the links to files are included in the post.

http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?title=Pocket_PC_WIki:FIX_VERIZON_GPS

After you flash back and then forward to the newer radio you will need to call Verizon and have them re-authenticate your phone. Just tell them you applied the 6.1 update from 6.0 and they will be glad to help.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jadesse:
If you are talking about a pre-GPS ROM I don't know if you will find one?

If not then here is WM6.1 Stock

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thecaptain0220:
Thank you to everyone who helped me out on this one, I now have aGPS and lock on satellites in a few seconds. I am even getting satellites inside my office where I hardly get cell reception.

For future reference if anyone reads this later here are the steps I used. The problem was definitely that I had let the customizations run.

I followed this link first, Pocket PC WIki:FIX VERIZON GPS

I had no problems at all and I didn't even have to get a new A-key.

Then I followed the Custom ROM Instructions in this link Verizon AGPSFix

IMPORTANT: I also followed VZYGuy's advice and use the following settings instead of the Verizon info in the fix.

TELUS IP = 216.198.139.92

TELUS PORT = 8889

After all this everything is finally working great and im using the Verizon radio with NFSFAN's 6.1 ROM
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] VZYGuy:
Great! It's good to know it worked for someone other than me.

This also is the way to fix the XV6900 if it comes new from Verizon with wm6.1 already installed with the 'crippled' GPS drivers.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jorakal:
Yes read that entire thread. I did it and it worked for me.

EDIT: Ah I see you got it to work. Cool. Just for future FYI using the instructions I used, I did not have to do any customization other than 2 registry settings. Was much easier I think.
