I have the Carcomm holder with build in charger for the HTC Hero.

Works very well.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] bluemetallic:
Having looked for a solution both by searhing the forums and playing with the files myself I try to ask the question here:

On all ROMs I have tested the windows media player have not been able to load playlists with even a few albums, due to memory problems. The original HTC roms have never showed this problem. To further investigate I have stripped the HTC 6.1 ROM to get the correct files, but I've only put them in a separate folder and did not burn them into the ROM so the about dialog still shows the same version.

SO - my questions are:

Do I need to replace all dll-files in ROM (that is, to the windows folder) to get the complete correct version, or is it sufficient to have them in a separate folder together with the exe?

Do some of you coockers have the detailed insight to tell me what files I need to change?

Or am I completely off - is the error in some of the registry tweaks, and not in the player files?

(When I asked this directly in the thread for one of the ROMs I was told to that WMP isn't the best choice - this might be true, but I have my music library in wma-files and I need a player that accept the volume control from the HTC wired remote. If someone can point me to a player that fulfil these requirements I will forget about the WMP :) )

[Touch HD General] FaBl3D:
Hello,

I am facing a problem with both cameras on my HD.

there is a color disturbance, something like 256 colors mode, or pink noise instead of true colors.

I have searched the forums but this was the closest case

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=310509&page=3

No one reports a problem like this on the HD

here is the example photo

Thank you in Advance
[Touch HD General] David Balfour:
Wow thats a good one. What have you done to try and resolve this so far?

I would do a Hard reset, Flash an Official updated 1.56 ROM then i would look at sending it back as it could be a camera failure.

I would suggest using a Custom ROM but to be fair if the Stock doesnt work then there is a fault with the Phone sorry.
[Touch HD General] FaBl3D:
This problem was first introduced when i flashed Duttys 6.5 R8 ( i am not saying that its a Rom's Fault)

After that, I have flashed several 1.56 roms: Miris, NRG6.5 and Dutty 6.5 rom, but without any difference.

The problem occurs on both cameras. Main and video call.

These are 2 fotos, taken with:

MAIN Camera

VIDEO CALL camera

I assume that there is something wrong on the camera's video codec (if something like that exists) that is hardware and Rom irrelevant

Any ideas?
[Touch HD General] David Balfour:
as i said in my other Post have you tried going back to a stock ROM. I am a HP Warranty partner and 1 of the things we do is when ever we have a software fault is to make them put back the HP build as we know this works.

I would try this and if it doesn't work Give HTC a call
[Touch HD General] crajee:
may be a SPL and ROM version mismatch can cause this tooo?

Check if you have the latest SPL..
[Touch HD General] FaBl3D:
Thanks for the replies,

yesterday the problem just disappeared (without changing any rom, spl, anything else)

Hi,

when i use sktools auto clean.

the phone will freeze and shutoff.

I looked thru the options and i already disabled the shutoff option.

is anyone else having this problem?

is there an sktools alternative?

does the program put too much stress on the phone?

my phone memory is at 60%

thanks

but I don't want to pay for the full version. lol

I'm not that anal about cleaning the phone. just the basics is good enough.

I wish they made memmaid for the smartphone.

my PPC memmaid is going to waste... lol

I have it like this:

yes

scheduled run:

5:00am

day, month, years, i left blank

startup delay:

0

power off after task is complete:

No

yes

I've just got a touchpro2, with the standard vodafone uk rom. I've noticed that ActiveSync seems to reinstate itself even if you keep closing it down manually.

Memmaid shows a load of duplicate notifications building up in the queue - I can't find any pattern as to what causes another one to add. It looks like this in the queue:

\\.\Notifications\NamedEvents\PushIntertScheduleTimeUp

Anyone any ideas what is likely to be causing these? I can clean up the duplicates using memmaid as I'm sure the phone will slow down and eventually crash if enough of these queue entries build up. But would be nice to stop it at source.

Wednesday is like a "Thank God I am in the middle of the week" release date. I am upgrading from a BB, they have made a special allotment for me :D, I guess I am just used to HTC phones. The local T-Mob stores don't know nothing. Heck, I went instore yesterday to my fav rep, and she said they didn't even have the display version yet, so how would they know. lol. But then again, she is getting the myTouch 3G so .. well.. .. anyway. :)

I'm with AT&T, but I really hope that is not going to be the price point.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] toadlife:
I was going to get this phone, but the $349.00 price is outrageous. I am NOT under contract with T-Mobile (customer for SEVEN YEARS), so if they can't come down, I'm walking right over to AT&T. I've been using a Wing for two years and I've been waiting patiently for T-Mo to release a new winmo phone, and the price turning out to be so high after all this waiting has me steamed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] YodaJM:
I'm just worried all of the carriers might price it the same.

$349 with a $50 mail-in-rebate I could understand. But $349 and a 2 year contract is really bad.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] toadlife:
To add fuel to my fire, they are also going to require a data plan for the entire two years. I live in a rural area, so I am stuck with T-Mo's notoriously slow EDGE network; T-Mo's 3G network doesn't come within 35 miles of my house!

Hi all,

Hope you can help, i've searched but can't anything.

I have a Touch HD and it great apart from it drops calls when it switches between GSM and HSDPA/WCDMA.

What I'm looking for is either:

A program or script the stops the phone switching between the two networks Or the registry setting to stop it switching, so I can make my own program.

I know there is band switch and I can do it in the phone settings, but Ideally I'd like the phone to be set to auto, but only use gsm for call and while on the call not switch to 3G if it detects a signal.

Hope this makes sense.

Hey guys, I've been attempting to pair a Rocketfish Keyboard and Mouse. It's proving to be incredibly annoying. When I set the keyboard or mouse to discoverable and attempt to pair it with my touch pro (NFSrom), it gives me the option of entering a passkey or skipping if the device does not require it. Whether I skip or use a passkey (I've tried 0000 and 1111) it says the device is connected. However when I look at the bluetooth list, the device is listed as disconnected. When I click on the device and try to connect, my phone says my Keyboard/Mouse (whichever I am attempting) is attempting to connect to the phone. It requires a passcode, which I input as 0000. The phone then subsequently hangs.

There is no documentation or literature that I am able to find online regarding a default passkey for my rocketfish bluetooth keyboard/mouse set, including in the manual.

Does anyone have any idea how to pair these devices with my phone or what I am doing wrong? I'd prefer not to buy a new keyboard/mouse unless I absolutely need to.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] snowy0wl:
Pairing Rocketfish

I'm happy to report that it does pair with at least a Atrix model android phone. I have the aluminum version Model: RF-ABTKB and it works nicely!

The trick is that you must pair it first 0000 then on the keyboard press 0000 <enter>

took me a few times to try but works great

I've also attached a Bluetooth Razer Orochi mouse to it successfully.

I'm out to look for a map for the keys but menu button (control/f1) and the volume keys are working!.. so pleased.

I was going to hack the HDMI port but now I need a stand and it's a little tricky with my Bell version of the atrix.

Anyway. Good luck!
[General Topics] Rommie2k6:
Hi everyone,

I was just wondering what are the fastest & most responsive VGA-screen PPC Phones out there (or coming by end 2009)? I quantify performance in terms of 2D graphics, and I've been using SPB Benchmark Graphics benchmark. Of course, one can always argue there's more than 2D graphics in terms of speed, but slow phones really pissed me off. I used to had a HTC Universal and that was a steaming pile of junk. Switched to HTC Hermes 2-3yrs back... and it's been barely tolerable.

Right now, I've only found 2 "fast" VGA PPC Phones - ASUS P565 and Samsung Omnia II. However ASUS P565 is a questionable VGA phone since it's screen is a puny 2.8" size (might as well get a ASUS P552W). Both have a graphics benchmark of around ~2500, which is quite sad since that's equivalent to the Eten M600 speed (ok it runs as a QVGA). Compare this to Samsung Omnia I (~5000) or the ASUS P552W (~11,000) both of which uses the slower Marvel 624MHz CPU, Monahans and Tavor generation respectively.

I read that Toshiba TG01 Snapdragon is coming soon, but are there any concrete benchmarks done on it?

So, does anyone know if there is any fast & responsive VGA PPC Phones out there? Or do we have to wait for Snapdragon, Tegra or Marvell's 1GHz CPU? Can we expect such CPUs to make VGA screened phones fast enough? Or should I just get the ASUS P552W which means giving up my QWERTY keyboard :(, and wait for another 2-3years?
[General Topics] orb3000:
Hi

I can think on Tosh tg01 that is already on sale as the fastest to this date (I believe)

On december some snapdragon tosh models will be launched! perhaps HTC also...

Other ones not so fast but also good options are:

Touch pro 2

Hero
[General Topics] Phen0m:
Acer M900?
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
YOu cannot treat a processors MHz as the be-all-end-all. Its an indicator and nothing more. You cannot compare processor speeds across diferent manufacturers either.

And no matter how fast the processor, if the drivers/design around it is sh*t, the phone will suffer greatly. A good example of this, Acer Shell to access contacts can be a little slow, SPB Shell however, is instant.

You can only compare by running the same app performing the same task on each phone. Benchmarks try to do this but can become far too specific at times. Again, they are a (good) indicator but not the be-all-end-all.

On a side note, I have an m900 and if you turn off Acer Shell (coz it sucks!) it is VERY fast.

When you want speed, why do you need speed exactly? Are you talking about accessing contacts etc? Are you talking about screen orientation or maybe playing games?

Your best bet is try and get hold of devices, install the required game/software and THEN see how responsive it is.
[General Topics] Rommie2k6:
Easier said than done, I would love to have a try out by to replicate real-life performance one has to install all the apps one normally use, so it's not practical unless you have a dozen friends with different PPC Phones. While benchmarks aren't perfect, I don't see anything better to replace it. Sure, there is software optimizations and driver stuff, but if it sucks... no matter how much you cook your ROM and optimize, it sucks.

Take for example HTC Universal. That is one slow piece of junk. No matter how much optimization you do, you're not going to beat say the current HTC Hermes that I am using in terms of responsiveness. Another example is the last 1-2 yrs of HTC <Insert Model> running Qualcomm CPUs. So many users have reported the unbearably slow speed, and it doesn't help that many of them come with VGA resolution screens. Almost all evidence point to date that VGA phones are slow and crappy... and I was wondering if technology has advanced the point whereby this can be rectified.

Speed? It's the most importing thing when dealing with PPC Phones. For many years now, I the name Pocket PC is a real misnomer, as previous generation and maybe even current generation of phones acts in no way like a real personal computer.

What is acceptable? Fast 2D graphics. Instant response when I click on something, as I was using a laptop. No lag. No lag when rotating the screen. Faster loading of webpages instead of waiting for ages... and then it crashes. And btw I use Phone Weaver, Pocket Plus and SPB Diary on my Today screen, which makes it more taxing on the 2D system. Sure the HTC Universal with a fresh install can rotate screen in 1-2 seconds when optimized, but load in all my Today plugins it takes like 10-20 seconds!

Next comes fast 3D graphics and the ability to play movies. Right now my HTC Hermes can't play normal sized video files, i.e. 640x480, XVID/DIVX. Of course you can always recode with a lower res, but what's the point? It's all extra work.
[General Topics] Phen0m:
Ronnie,

Have you thought about doing the 128MB memory upgrade, and overclocking the CPU on the Universal? May help things a bit.

Some other devices that may be faster:

Xperia X1

Acer F1

02 XDA Flame

Asus P835

Here is a site that test floating point and OGL performance in smartphones. Donot know how legit it is however.

[General Topics] coolVariable:
Most certainly don't look to HTC.

e.g. Kaiser - even if the CPU/GPU supports faster performance, they don't deem that necessary and don't include the required drivers.

The video 'hack' to speed up 2-D performance for the Kaiser proves that there are even more inefficiencies/missing drivers for that HTC phone.
