OK - Those two O2 APNs have been added.

If someone could confirm working APNs for Vodafone then that would be great.

Also, is there an easy way to alter the status bar color etc? I dont want to get too messy, but just a thought.
[G1 Android Development] Zappza:
Have a look in the Themeing & Applications subforum. I think the related .png file is located in /system/framework-res.apk

Just open the .apk file with 7zip and edit the statusbar_background.png in the res\drawable folder in photoshop or gimp and change the colour :)
[G1 Android Development] richbayliss:
Thanks, I will do so now.
[G1 Android Development] dubstar_04:
Hello,

I would be interested in such a rom. I currently use the rogers rom because I like the htc mail app. Would you consider trying it in your rom rather than the google mail app?
[G1 Android Development] richbayliss:
I will try. Since I am working on JF 1.51 baseline I dont know if this is possible. I am quite new to the FW game, so we will have to experiement.

I plan to make the RC1 build available this coming Friday evening GMT. If the HTC mail app is missing, then lets try to get it into RC2 :D
[G1 Android Development] Zappza:
Did the framework-res.apk file editing work?

I just looked at the file when I posted and figured it might work ^^
[G1 Android Development] nigglers:
APNs

May be of some use for all the APNs

http://modmygphone.com/wiki/index.php/Carrier_APN_Settings#UK_Networks
[G1 Android Development] richbayliss:
I will check out the APN list posted. Hopefully add the missing UK networks.

I also managed to get the Mail.apk from a Rogers ROM supporting Exchange, with the help of some people on the forum, and a quick test looks promising. I will make it available in the ROM also.

I did manage to alter the framework-res.apk and have a black status bar, but the icons looked poor against it. I added the rogers wallpaper (red wave) and it looks smart, and I also made the Launcher menu background solid black. Overall I think it is a little more "smart" looking.

Hopefully will make the ROM available tonight via rapidshare etc, or maybe start a Google project.
[G1 Android Development] Dyonas:
This looks interesting for simplicity and a clean look, I like that you're trying to change the normal, dull grey status bar / pull down because I really prefer the semi-transparent black version used in Hero.
[G1 Android Development] dubstar_04:
Thanks for taking the time to work on this rom and good for you for sticking up for yourself in other posts. you know which i mean. ;)
[G1 Android Development] richbayliss:
For the initial release I am going to keep the status bar "dull grey" :) I am going to work on a transparent black, but it will mean I need to change the icons to suit, which will take time.

It might be easier to rebuild the Launcher.apk from source and make it load the icons from filesystem rather than RES folder. That way it could be skinned a bit easier... just a thought.
[G1 Android Development] richbayliss:
When I bought my ADP1 I always planned to make a generic ROM for us UK users. Alot of work goes into the US versions, but since the dialers format the number for the US scheme it makes it less attractive to the UK users.

I know that I will benefit from my ROM, I just hope others will to. :D
[G1 Android Development] richbayliss:
I have updated the main page and added links to the download.

I might release updates as a patch to the main download, to reduce the download times. Details will be on the Wiki on the project site.

...the insurance company wont ever be able to figure out that i rooted it and come for money?

I downgraded to the original bootloader but cant get rc29 back on, i just get the gray screen to flash for a split second (it says 'no file...') i still have cyanogen 1.3.1 and i flashed ion to have something to work with but i read that i can pull the battery during a flash and just brick it. thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:
Are you sure that your sdcard is formatted to fat32? The no file found usually indicates that it isn't.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
good call thanks, i may have put it on the new card that came with the new phone, which i suppose isnt set to fat32 by default. But the boot flashed ok, would it do that if it wasnt fat32?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:
No problem, seen it before and just passing the info along. I don't think it should affect the boot.img as that is flashed from terminal, and I don't think terminal is as discriminating as the bootloader.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DMaverick50:
that worked its updating, however my trackball doesnt work and i think im supposed to use it after the install. wonder if theres a workaround...

edit: i wound up pulling the battery and it booted up just fine so i think im set to send it back in, thanks again for the help it wouldve cost me up to $300 to the insurance if anything went wrong on my end...the build number says "kila-..." i cant remember if thats original
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] darrellkelly93:
my sim card is not workin only can make emergency calls,what is the problem??
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RizwanKhan:
umm your service is disconnected?????
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] darrellkelly93:
no,its not reading the card slot at all
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Digital Outcast:
This may be a stupid question- is the SIM card in the proper way? When did this start? What changed? Did you drop the phone?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kiyoshi67:
When I first bought my Tilt used, I had the same problem. I had to stick a tiny part of a post-it to the back of my SIM and shove it in there. It's like my SIM wasn't thick enough.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Nick2001:
The best way - to try with another SIM (maybe your friends have a mobile-phone :))

Sometimes the old SIMs don't want to work with modern devices....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Dashvar:
well heres my 2 cents as i just fixed it, my issue at first i thought it was the sim slot (replaced...) then found out the ribbon was damaged a crack occured, after another week of waiting for a package (today) i replaced it and now its running fine
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Antigen:
Same here

My Sim was no longer available.

Kaiser had "sim card is missing", but the sim was in there.

I disassebled it and found that the main flex cable was damaged.

Now I'm waiting for replacement.

So, When the phone shows up "sim missing" it's an flex cable matter not the sim card flex or the sim card unit.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nodisco:
same problem here

I'm having the same problem here. thought that it was the flex cable of the sim, but when I disassambled the Kaiser I found out that the main cable was slightly scrached from a corner, and the sim's cable was there pluged well... I'm trying to fix it..gonna post the result for "sim card failure"...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xudo:
Hi, it seems like i've messed up my phone. It began when the phone hung it self so i just powered it off and then on again. And now all my progs/apps that I've installed to the memorycard stopped working and i also got an error message right after the boot up. But I think I've located the error but I don't know how to fix it. When I looked in the file explorer there is a folder called memorycard2 which my memorycard now is linked to and the phone is reading from it. Although all my progs/apps is linked to memorycard not memorycard2.

But there is a folder called memorycard too but it's all empty, any sugestion how to fix this problem, I hope hard reset wont be the answare to solve it :(

thx in adv.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orelsi:
Delete that folder?

Copy all of the card contents to a PC. Format the card and copy them back.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buzz83:
Easy fix...

Rename \Storage Card to anything else. Soft reset. Delete the folder you renamed (not storage card as it is now fixed).
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comeradealexi:
WHen this happened to me i think i took all memory cards out - disconnected from the PC and deleted the Storage Card folder - put my memory card back in and it re-created a "storage card" folder instead of Storage Card 2
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xudo:
Thanks for all the replies guys. I think everyones solution will work although I went with buzz83 sugestion since it seemd sloppiest. My phone runs so much faster now and it also enabled the hardware acceleration for SPB MS3, the carusell is spinning like a chamber on a rustless revolver! ;) :p

Oh yeah, it did solve my problem!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buzz83:
It's because you changed registry values to have things like internet cache/history etc stored on your storage card.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DJ_Enigma:
Hi all,

I've got my Rhodium and before I start experimenting with a lot of the stuff on here I wanted to backup my device in a working state.

I previously always used sprite backup which I got on a CD with my Kaiser for free.

I didn't get it for free with my Rhodium and it wouldn't let me install it on here cause it said invalid rom version.

Is there an alternative? I don't have any money as I'm off work sick following an operation so if there is a bit free of free software that does the same thing that would be awesome :)

Another thing I wanted to ask but din't think needed it's own thread.... On my Kaiser I had an action screen (using Hyper Dragon III) and I'd very much like to get that same action screen on my Rhodium if possible, does anyone know if it would work on this device and if so where I can get it on it's own?

Thanks all, :)

DJ

Try your local HTC support download - I can download Sprite 6.2.3.2324 from there
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RogerStenning:
Cannot find - got a link, perchance?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lovelldr:
It's only available free from the HK version of the support for the TP2... Same as only HK have an updated ROM for the TP2 :(

Think HTC need to start dishing out these updates and software etc for everyone... :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RogerStenning:
Oh... pooh :(

And yeah, if they offer for one area, they should offer for all. Common sense, that, to make (at the very least) a basic back-up tool available, say a "lite" version of a commercially available full product... HTC, you guys listening, perchance? ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lovelldr:
Well, i sent them an email asking about it, so will see what response i get...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nebc100:
If you need a copy of it, send me a PM
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radiowc:
Well, I would rather purchase a new one if it does not comes with your phone or even if there is a free one out there :> besides your TP2 is not a cheap investment. Better treat it well, if not your phone will be mad :D Good luck.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RogerStenning:
I've already had to perform one hard reset, so back up software would be most helpful :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] John Charles:
I've used PIM backup which is free. Works well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RogerStenning:
Does it back up all the TouchFlo and WAP/MMS/Internet settings on a WM6.1 phone as well?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] John Charles:
There is a custom area where you can specify which files/folders you want to back up. So as long as you know the files you need, yes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lovelldr:
The reply I got from HTC basically said that they have an agreement on the sprite backup software that it would be available only for asian market. If this gets altered and becomes available for more markets, it would be available to download from the support area...

Not holding out much hope there then! Good job I use spb backup already then :p

Just a quick question, if I needed to do a hard reset of my device, and then restored the backup, what actually gets restored?! Would I need to reinstall all of the software etc all over again!? Just wondering, as my backup is over 100mb, and I don't have that much in my phone that I've stored, so guess that a lot of it is probably files I have installed!?

Cheers
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RogerStenning:
Good question. I'd like to know the answer too, as I'd certainly pay a reasonable amount for back-up software that not only backed up my files, but backed up all my settings aincluding registry and wap, mms, and net settings as well (it's save me spending twenty minutes remembering where I'd left the details on my PC, then labouriously manually copying them into the PPC again!).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radiowc:
Well, you will get back everything you backup (full backup), if your restore from the SBP Full Restore. (Make sure it is a good backup copy). If you have programs that installed on your microSD, you don't need to reinstall them. It will run perfectly after the restore. (cos I have done it many times)

Note; the only thing you need is just have to resync with your PC (like contacts, calendar, etc)

Good luck.

hello people,

I have an error with my own rom (diamond wm6.5 build 23009) when I play a mp4 files recorded with the camera. The message "source filter could not be loaded" is displaying when I play this kind of files.

I search in the registry files of package (mediaOS) and there isn't reg key for mp4. I guess that there is no codec installed for mp4 or the registry keys are missing.

Thanks for your help

EDIT : I solved this issue, it came from my DShow package ;)

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bzerk1:
well for some reason my sisters G1 is draining battery like crazy in 5 mins like 7-13% of battery is drained. So as a test i switched batteries with mines, so my battery is draining like crazy on her phone. So it's probably the phone. tested with and with no sim card aswell and both drain alot of battery.

Her phone is a black g1 crc1 OTA update, we live in the US, but she bought her phone online a long time ago. and the problem just came up.

The funny thing is i didnt even root her phone. we never overclocked or swapped anything. At first i installed Task Manager and deleted some apps from working, it seemed to do ok but turned back to heating up and draining fast again. So i resetted to default settings using the option in the settings. and nothing has changed, i then flashed the phone to JACmytouchSki to see if i can control the cpu, i set it 128 to 358(or whatever the third one is) and it's still draining fast, although it doesnt heat up as much. Eventually the overclock program keeps forceclosing. and now i flashed to Drizzy's TouchFlo3d Hero Rom 2.5 because it says it recognizes not to drain battery. but i knew it was just a shot and the battery doesnt seem to be getting better.

Does anyone have any idea what i can do to help this poor battery draining g1?

Letting it sit after the TouchFlo3d 2.5 upgrade from Drizzy is helping alot... still uses more battery than my phone with 4 widgets running + network on.

note* there is no sim card and syncronization with my sisters g1 atm.

I am looking for a Call Screening Applications for my HTC Sprint Diamond.

I have Magicall and it works great but I also need an application where I can screen incoming calls on a "per call" basis.

Sanyo devices used to have a Call Screen feature where you had the option to send callers to a custom greeting, you could pick up the call, listen to the caller leave a message and pick up the call midway or send the caller to "dead air."

Right now, if you press Ignore, the call goes to Voicemail.

I would like to have options of what I can do with an incoming call such as sending them to a custom greeting which could be "dead air."

Any ideas?

After a few weeks with different Hero ROMs, I decided to go back to vanila droid because I prefer the look and utter simplicity, but I miss the Albums, Widgets, Networking Integration, and Multi-Touch/Flash of the Hero Builds.

Is there any way I can get some of these features back w/o going back to Hero?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] feicher:
I am not the most competent to answer in this forum.

However, as far as I got: no you can't. Unlike in windows, where you just throw in a couple of dll's and might add something to the registry, this here is an entirely different thing. Each Romset is a seperat build. Boot.img for rom type A will not work with rom type B. HTC Calendar + Widget depend on the framework, which again depends on stuff beneath... so sad story.

I wasted several hours trying the same thing (editing roms, resigning and flashing them) without success and came to the above conclusion.
