To those who are trying this, look at the gradient image posted above. Before making this change can you see distince changes in color or does it look smooth? How about after? Do you notice a slowdown?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VNMenIeu:
No gradient image not smooth. But other images look fine. I don't know about you guys, but I'm keeping it.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gundamboy:
actually, after a soft reset everything's fine.

speed is up to normal, and the image looks nice.

keeping it as well!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] commodoor:
hmm if its not slowing the xperia i will give it a try also
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ring-bearer:
I presume more colors = more processor intensity = lower battery life, but perhaps people can report.

Anywho, the high resolution image viewing with HTC Album 3.0 is mad clear. I like it. Thanks, +rep

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondolf:
i dont see any difference in quality of colour or speed of device
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhyBe:
I think some people are imagining things. :confused:

The X1 screen only supports 16bit (65K colors), so how in the world is anyone seeing a difference?

Even if the X1 screen supported 24bit color (WM already does), you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a 24bit image and a 16bit one, unless you were viewing gradients.

I think there is wishful thinking going on in this thread :p

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sajib:
I can also "Confirm" there is visually a colour dept difference when you choose 18 or 24 bit VS the default.

I will check with one of my mates x1 without this reg change tomorrow to close the seal.

Until then....
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gundamboy:
you mean I can choose 24 instead of just 18? I went from 16 to 18.. but think of the possibility o.o
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infazz:
imo you can change it till 32 bit, but higher is slower

Hi all! How to make MORE colors ????? :confused:

OOPS! i did it! i SEE difference!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gundamboy:
unfortunately, i'm noticing a bit of a battery life decrease.

I don't think it's just me... but the colors are wonderful :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhyBe:
Anybody care to post some screenshots? :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nevermind:
I believe, that everything has a reason. There must be a reason why MS has possibly "downgraded" that in registry. Not sure if there are really that many colours, because although human eye can distinguish around 10 million colours, the brain doesn't. Second, I cannot notice difference between 256k and 16milion colours. And PLEASE! Colour saturation and othes have NOTHING to do with the actual numbers. For example take SE K850 and compare it with W910. Both have same number of colours, but people usually think that K850 has much more colours. Just because the colours there are more vivid and the driver is just different.

Another thing is the display controller (not sure about the right word in English.. Bus?) - wonder how long it'll last. Doesn't it wear and tear more faster? Like for example defragmenting SD cards?

Damn, even with "just" 65k colours, all the videos I have look the same as videos in my Sony walkman player or SE W995.

A nice article is here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision

Is it safely
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dogans:
Weird.. I changed from 16 to 18, saved, restarded - system info still says 65k colors.

Anyone got a clue?

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhyBe:
Perhaps people are seeing something DIFFERENT...not more colors. To some, different means better/more.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reconer:
i dont think it has any effect. i changed it to 18, but i didnt see anything. i changed it to 8, expecting 256 colors, i also didnt see any changes
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhyBe:
You're a nonbeliever :p

You have to cross your fingers and believe in your heart. Only after you have done this will you see the extra colors.

If that doesn't work...close your eyes and click your heels together three times.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] informatico:
Same here .... and it doesnt have any visual difference from my eyes any value i tried

I think windows mobile might be ably to show more colors but this isnt sure working for me....

[Touch HD General] MOREESH:
Hi All,

Sorry if this is already on the forum but I cant seem to find a method that works right.. I stuck my phone in my girlfriends handbag whilst on holiday and on the beach, sand got into her bag and scratched the hell out of it, including the touch-screen. I have bought Displex but even that does not work well on the outside rim let alone the touch screen.

Is there any possilble way to remove these scratches??

Anyone got any suggestions..

Thank you
[Touch HD General] ozmoran:
Tell your Girlfriend that its all her fault and she has to buy you a new phone :D

But she can keep the scratched one

Just kidding, couldnt resist :D did you not have a screen protector?
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
You can buy replacement covers and screens
[Touch HD General] MOREESH:
Lol very good, I could go down that route, unfortunatley no I did not have the protector on ... If I did apply the screen protector.. would it fade out the scratches if not the major ones, perhaps the minor ones.

Ill try that
[Touch HD General] MOREESH:
Thanks for the Message, might sound silly to you but how much are we roughly talking for a screen and perhaps the casing as the front has a number of scratches too.

I have not had time to whizz through this website as mostly I check it through work so apologies if there is a thread on this already.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Try and abide by the rules and try a little searching next time.

Here you go
[Touch HD General] Aromatical:
At $69.99 I suggest you get her to pay for it :)
[Touch HD General] ozmoran:
It can help after wards sometimes I had TYTN2 before with a similar problem I applied the protector after it was scratched and I was pretty happy with the results I could only see scratches when I really looked for them in light so its worth a shot before replacing anything cheaper too ;)

Still think my first idea is better :D
[Touch HD General] laguna33p:
Fact of life these things get damaged sooner or later. I would just accept the fact that it's damaged as long as it works. You will probably move onto the next device in a few months!

[G1 Android Development] mzet:
hi,

i was thinking if there is some way to turn off all boot logo's and make visible kernel log and system log during booting like on regular linux system is...

what do you think?

zet
[G1 Android Development] Ohsaka:
adb logcat > logcat.txt
[G1 Android Development] QDT:
I thing the question was to see bootlog instead splash boot screen.
[G1 Android Development] mzet:
yes, i know that. but i was writing "during booting"... not to show animation but logs when system is starting...

(heh, posting at the same time, thanks QDT anyway :)
[G1 Android Development] ximonx:
Like when starting jf's recovery image?
[G1 Android Development] glock30:
I think that is what he is looking for... I would not mind seeing this either :P
[G1 Android Development] cyanogen:
This is actually hard to do. JF's recovery would just run "dmesg" before starting recovery. If you want a real console, you have to use a serial cable or something like mtdoops AFAIK.
[G1 Android Development] Sirus20x6:
I would prefer that as well. I like the linux look of boot.
[G1 Android Development] Bloodbeard:
I second.

Since day one, the splash screen during boot has annoyed the hell out of me. I have to turn it on and walk away for a few minutes just to keep my blood pressure level at normal. Any device that takes more than 5-10 seconds to boot just has to have a verbose option in my book.
[G1 Android Development] TemporalShadows:
You can count me among the people who'd love to see this.

I wonder if we can figure out a way to make this happen?

It doesn't look hopeful if cyanogen says it's difficult, lol.
[G1 Android Development] cuss:
as far as it may seems a useless feature, I will welcome it very much too.

I like to see what's going on, at boot time.

It's something I hate on Win and Mac.

So here it is another vote for it!
[G1 Android Development] joeydsmith:
i would love this. plz cyanogen make it happen in your next ROM!
[G1 Android Development] circa85:
OS X supports verbose mode startup

I just found out... so does windows... http://www.pchijack.com/os/windows-xp/enable-verbose-show-detailed-information-while-windows-start/
[G1 Android Development] JanetPanic:
I would like it as well. For me doing an "adb -d logcat" or "adb -d logcat |tee log.txt" in a shell on bootup is fine though. Usually I only care right after flashing or if my phone is having problems. When the phone is having problems pushing it to a file on my computer is better than seeing it on the screen anyway.
[G1 Android Development] Burag:
Its useful only on first boot after reflashing, but it looks sooo sexy :p
[G1 Android Development] The Reverend Gridlock:
Got another vote from me, I would love to see the linux like boot up also

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmbika:
I stumped upon Chainpus (or Chinpus... whatever it may be) and MSI both having Bluetooth Gamepad models called BGP-100 (or BGP100). I am confused whether both are same wine with different brand names or what? And will it work on Xperia M 6.1 and may be later OS upgrades to come in future.

I also want to use with Vista laptop because I save USB port and don't want to lug different USB dongles. Main purpose is portability and as less as possible items while on the go.

Did anyone used this gamepad sucessfully either with WM 6.1 and Vista?

Any help?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmbika:
Bought it and it works like a treat on Xperia as well as my Vista laptops. Much cooler item. Like and love it.

And there is no difference as to MSI or Chainpus brands, model BGP100 is the same thing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lovelldr:
Hi guys.

I'm trying to get my TP2 to work over wifi using my works proxy server...

I've managed to get it to connect fine at home, and can get it to connect to sites which do not require the proxy to access, but when I need to use the proxy, it just won't access (as if the proxy server is not set up correctly).

Now maybe I don't have it set up correctly?! This is what I've got:

Settings -> All Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Advanced -> Select Networks:

Programs the automatically connect to the Internet should connect using: mobile web

Programs the automatically connect to a private network should connect using: My Work Network

The "mobile web" option was set up by the Settings -> Communications -> Data Connection, and allows me to use gprs/hsdpa to connect to my provider (O2).

Is there something I have set up wrong? Or is there a way that I can get it to connect to the internet using the work proxy?

Many thanks,

David

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yogam1:
Me too, having the same issue. I managed to connect to my company WiFi after spending the effort of downloading and installing the certificates.

With a big breath, when I connected to Internet, nothing worked. And spent nearly an hour searching this forum for a resolution but couldnt get hold of anything.

Our company uses a URL with the option of 'Use automatic configuration script' in IE. And I dont how to configure this in my TP2.

Man, just checked with my colleague having an iPhone. It was a breeze. The HTTP Proxy has 3 options 1. On, 2. Off 3. Auto and when you enable Auto, it allows to enter the URL with the field label URL. Its a breeze. Why is it so difficult in WM????

Reply from HTC on this....

Thank you for contacting HTC.

With reference to your query, we are sorry because HTC phone can only automatic receive the Wifi signal or use SSID to access to the Wifi network, it cannot check the URL to get the connection.

You can go to Start - Settings - All Settings - Connections - Wifi. Please turn on Wifi there first. Then go to Advanced. Please take a note for the MAC address there and go to your server to add this MAC address to connect it with your phone.

Thank you for your continuous support of our products and services. Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Dear All,

Managed to resolve this. My issue was that we had an Automatic Configuration Script in the IE. Hence managed to look into the script for the Proxy Server and the port and set it up in the 'My Work' connections. Also edited the WiFi connection to connect to 'My Work' and i got it working.

sorry for my bad english

i hope u will understand what i want to say

thanks!!!!!!!!
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
We are aware of this system, but right now, the system is under testing and not fully working. Rest assured when it becomes fully ready and if its possible to use it on gene, we will definately use it.

I said if it is possible, because, on gene, the concept of ULDR partition doesn't exists as far as i know. And ULDR partition is an integral component of that system. ULDR was most probably introduced in WM 6.1 but since Gene is a WM 6 device, it doesn't have the parition layout entry for ULDR. I could be wrong, this is just what my logic says based on my current information.

Also, it wont prevent bricking, as for the system to work, you will need to flash a ROM that supports the ULDR partition and the update system itself, before anything else. For that, you will need to patch your SPL as cooked ROMS will never have the HTC's digital signature. And as we know, patching the SPL is the reason behind all the bricking mess.

But anyways, thanks a lot for sharing :)

Double Post! :o
[P3400 ROM Development] Addicted2xda:
Will it ever work?

I have read the thread sometime back, but I have a few queries...

1. When you upgrade your OS from, say 98 to XP or XP to Vista, there always is a performance issue (compared to formatting your hard drive and doing a fresh install). And since our WinMo are nothing but hand held PCs (well you can say that, it got a processor, a hard disk (ROM), RAM), I guess that issue will crop up here as well.

2. What will happen if you have a 3rd party s/w which is incompatible with the new version of WM? Those of you who are in the PC tech field for a long time, you know after you have upgraded your OS, you can't use that software, neither can you uninstall it :(...

So there will be issues, if I am not wrong.

But thats only my opinion. Most pple here are head and shoulders above me technically :).
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
@Addicted: Well, Here are my opinions on your queries :

1. Yes, if the registry of the PPC is having some problems, then it will be an issue. Its a bigger issue in PCs as compared to PPCs coz in PCs the software are huge in size and they write thousands of entries to registry, modify system files etc. SO when an upgrade occurs, these changes either cause a corrupted registry, or in the second case when system files had been modified or replaced by a program, these files will be again updated by the OS and the program may not work, and if its a system level program with deep roots in system functionality, it will cause the system to slowdown at least or crash at worse.

These issues dont affect PPC much coz, for one, PPC software are usually small, they dont write much in registry (ms office on pc for example on PC writes a few thousand keys to registry while registering COM servers etc while MS Office on PPC just adds 10 or 20), and since the OS files are in ROM, they cant be touched by a software. They will remain overridden, if they have beem overridden as the updating process doesn't touch the phone memory.

2. Think again buddy, this is not applicable for WinMO. When you flash a ROM, you already change your OS version, so that will happen anyway, if you flash a ROM or you use the update system on an existing ROM. :)

I hope this would have cleared your doubts.
[P3400 ROM Development] Addicted2xda:
Actually you did not get me about the second issue, what I was trying to say is, if you flash your ROM, you incompatible program will be deleted (obviously) and thus free up space, but if you upgrade, your program will still take up space but will be of no use to you. Since most of the programs in Winmo are stored in Windows folder itself, it will be next to impossible for 99% users to identify the files to delete :D.
