do you actually uninstall them or just remove the widgets from the home screens?

I just removed the widgets and then pulled battery. You will definitely see a difference.....

Removing HTC Stock Apps?

Is there a way to remove the actual apps from the phone without rooting?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] usoska:
Hi,

I would be very interested too in knowing the possibility to remove unuseful HTC apps (facebook, peep for example)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Ahmadmz3:
I unchecked the google automatic sync and now the phone is really fast , but I still have the people widget even though I do not use it , so I may kill it to see if there is an improvement .

Hi Guys

I am using HTC TyTn II ( Stock ROM). I have inserted 8Gb card. everything is working fine but i get no tone when a new message comes... i dono what is wrong... i have checked every possible things... please help me out... thanks in advance

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] phjott:
I actually had the same problem after flashing to a 6.5 ROM.

I changed the message tone to a different one, and suddenly it beep'd when a message arrived.. Try it, it's worth a shot :P But don't ask me why it's like this :P
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] alfiejts:
If you 've changed the registry setting to stop "threaded" sms then this stops the sms notification...

Do a search and there are a few threads on this.

I use SPB phone suits and that has an alternatie reminder option for SMS that I've turned on instead...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] BrunoCi:
I've searched in the forum but I didn't find anything about it.

I've just installed the trial version of CoPilot for TD2, but every time I launch it I see a message that sounds like "CoPilot needs to confirm your trial period by accessing Internet every time you use it".

So the question is: does it really connect to internet every time I start the program? I'm going abroad and I was planning to test it, but if it is going to use internet it will cost me a fortune! :eek:

Thank you

Bruno.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Steeve24:
I used the trial and as far as I can tell it does try to check each time its run, try an experiment, block your data connections (NODATA) then see if it runs, I did have a situation where I didn't have a data connection (bad signal area) and it did start up, it might not need to check every time??

I did have some issues with Copilot though, if I went find a destination from a Contact section, as soon as I selected a key on the keyboard (to go to a contact) it crashed out. Also it had trouble with several contacts in finding a street location for them.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] vijaydesor:
I had a big arguement with CoPilot support about this - the software does in fact require internet connection to verify your status everytime you start it :mad: - I pointed out to the guy at CoPilot that this was ridiculous since on their start page they say that "Copilot doesn't use mobile internet for sat nav" .... but you do need it everytime you start it so without internet connection, you can't really use Copilot even though it might not need it for the satnav part!!!!

But, whilst trying it out, I think (but no guarantees) that once you log on to start Copilot, it might place some kind of tag about the expiry date and if you then block your data connection, you may still be able to use it by clicking on cancel on the welcome page of Copilot that tells you it needs to verify your license.

So give that a try and see if it works .... good luck and happy travels:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] andrew-in-woking:
Not a problem for me

Hi all

I used Copilot during the trial period and since buying it and it's never asked for an internet connection when the wireless is off. It's version:

7.8.0.351

Cheers

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] jlp_svk:
What map version do you have? In trial it's only 0804. :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] andrew-in-woking:
0804 maps

Hi

Yep, 0804 maps. You don't get anything extra when you buy it.

Improvements:

GREAT SPEED IMPROVEMENT!!! (60%)

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] gacon1000:
OMG!!!

NemanjaLO, can you tell me how to flash it? and how to turn back to window mobile?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] NemanjaLO:
There is no flash, because still there is no cold boot for Android.

Just unzip and copy all files to your SD card. Than go to file explorer and run Haret.exe from your phone and Android boot will start. First boot will take some time to create data store, just be patient.

To return to windows just power off your phone, and power on, windows will start.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] zerod:
hi, thank you very much! one question, it's about 5 minutes that i have the white htc logo on the black background of the first boot, do i have to wait more or what? thanks
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] slimag:
wow its actually working! to be honest - better than i expected. thanks for release :)

btw - any chances for flashing ever?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] arleybarros:
Once I read a topic about Android Niki, someone said that all the developers were selling their Nikis nobody would mind with this unit animore.

well, I am happy to know that there are still people interested in this great unit.

Thank you.

btw, i'm stuck in the HTC screen, must be a memory problem.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] arleybarros:
NemanjaLO, can you tell us the rom and radio version that you are using to run it? im trying radio 1.71 and get stuck in the htc boot screen. i've changed the resolution in the default.txt and the logo apears bigger than the screen.

Thanks a lot.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] slimag:
i've got wm6.5 rom (build 21812 but i forgot which cooker made this) and radio 1.71 and first boot took about 5minutes (mostly on htc screen) but now it works quite good

i'm going to buy g1 quickly if they port hero rom to work fast and stable. android is fututre ;)

Hi NemanjaLO,

I'm having issues with it starting.

I get the following error:

I use HTC Touch Dual(NIKI*) 21827 Aku5.0.60 WWE v2.11{2009/8/7} of Sun_Dream. Do you have any idea?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] pcdiks:
It does not work smoothly. I get the following error all the time:

the process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly

Any ideas?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] tonimanager:
2 problems fixed

the only way to get it pass the pin problem is to remove the pin on windows mobile. Go to the phone config on windows mobile and remove the pin so the phone don't need it to stat.

for the hero to work you must copy all files to the root of the sd card
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] the_fish:
working great on my nike ;) however its still slow, guess my sorta broken card reader is causing that
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] bilouk:

any idea for fixing this prob?

thx for all the good work accomplished
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] tonimanager:
How did u configure the internet access ?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] arleybarros:

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] meisterlampe2000:
Thank you very very much !

This is the best Android Image for the Nike so far.

Just one Question:

What Screen Resolution do you guys use ?

The default does not seem to be "nice" - I know that our native res. is not available at present :(
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] graey:
Yup, I checked it and I had some leftover config files from previous Android builds up there. Deleted them and everything went fine. Oh, and I could configure my internet settings with the standard android settings application! This build still occasionally is slow to respond and may hang every now and then, but it's getting more and more useable, thanks everybody who worked on this :D
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] gacon1000:
Hi NemanjaLO, is there any way to make HW keypad work? (niki 16 key)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] NemanjaLO:

Use 1 for NIKI 16 Keys and 0 for 20 Keys

Hi,

Nearly everything working now here...

Still some problems here with incoming SMS. While the Phone is in Standby Mode, there is no incoming Message Tone, when SMS arrives. Anyone with the same problem ? Perhaps some settigs i forgot to do ?

Seems to me, that there is a general problem while Phone is in Standby Mode. For me, the only way to wake up my Niki, is to press the Power Button and the red "End Call Button" together. Any ideas ?

Does anyone of you have touch screen keyboard problem? When i try to compose a sms, the touch screen stop function after the 1st key being pressed.

NIKI100 (16-keys)

Radio: 1.65.29.22

ROM: 2.12.707.2
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] graey:
I do not, but I'm using the recommended 1.71 radio ROM from the radio thread, and I'm now also not using the Hero-files anymore (though I can't remember having problems with it other than still being slightly sluggish).
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] eric325:
What about the physical keyboard? I cant get it working well too :(

Anyone who use the same radio version, please leave your comment before i upgrade to 1.7*.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] graey:
The physical keyboard (i've got the 16-key version) works fine for me! You do have to add some info to the default.exe:

In the last line, where it says 'set cmdline' and then a load of parameters, you have to add board-htcnike-keypad.keypadlayout=1 in between the quotes.

So if it currently says

set cmdline "board-htckaiser.panel_type=0 pm.sleep_mode=0 mddi.width=320 mddi.height=428 no_console_suspend"

add board-htcnike-keypad.keypadlayout=1 before the closing quote so it would be

set cmdline "board-htckaiser.panel_type=0 pm.sleep_mode=0 mddi.width=320 mddi.height=428 no_console_suspend board-htcnike-keypad.keypadlayout=1"

Again, that is for 16-key nikes only. For 20 key nikes it would be board-htcnike-keypad.keypadlayout=0 (so a 0 instead of a 1) I think, but I'm not sure about that.

(dont copy/paste my entire config, I'm not sure if it will work for you as I'm trying out different kernels and bundles from the vogue and kaiser google code pages)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] armandopoli:
on my niki doesn't work microphone during calls, what can i do?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Boylen:
This works for me too, but I was able to wake up the device by pressing the D-pad button twice ...

ow, wait, just tried other buttons pressing twice, and some of them wake it up, others don't...

For now, pressing the D-pad button twice is the nicest way for me...

Still, I love the way it is working on my niki...

btw: I was unable to receive SMS, but after a reboot it worked...also changing notification sounds only worked after a reboot. until that the old sound was used.

hmm, tried sending sms with chompSMS. Messages don't seem to be sent...

too bad...will have to go back to WinMo for now...sms is a pretty important feature...

nevertheless: great work!
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] lagloose:
Hi,

could resolve the "Wakeup Problem" by changing to "pm.sleep_mode=0" in default.txt. Now the Device wakes up, when i press a single Key. Nevertheless, still no notification for missed Calls or new SMS in the Notification Area.

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact, that i always get the message "process system is not reponding" after reboot. I choose "Wait" and no more Errormessages appear. Maybe that there is a needed Process missing for correct Handling of the Notifcation Area...

BTW: How did you download and install chompSMS ?

Big Up!

Nice improment since the Bootkit0503..

Its a bit laggy, but functions quite well.

It might be my cards fault, but browser and youtube are less responsive than in the previous builds, although it detects my sd card, i can make calls, :)

Interesting fact: without the keyboard-layout quote in default.txt, red button works for hangin up a call, after inserting the setting, its the ye old power button, which is a bit annoying.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] armandopoli:
natty can you post your default.txt?, cause i still can't make calls
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Boylen:
I've downloaded and used the SuperHero (http://code.google.com/p/vogue-android/downloads/list) stuff.

With this, the button on top of my Niki works again to wake it up. Haven't tried anything further, but I think I'm gonna try this kernel with the previous image supplied by NemanjaLO.

Hope the sms works again then...
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] joannerve:
No solution for vibration=freeze. Disabled all vibrations but vibrates when a call is answered or deleting widgets. Tested diferent default.txt, roms and radios and nothing
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] bilouk:

Regarding the fact, that correct working of Android depends on some timecritical Processcommunication i disabled all LED Functions under Settings->Sound and Display and Voila, i had SMS Sound and Notifications. The Screen still stays black, but there's a Tone and a Notification.

So if you don't get SMS Tone and Notifications when Device was in Sleep Mode, try to disable all LED Functions.

(Boyle: What did you mean by "I have used the kernel from the "super hero" bundle" ? What files from the bundle did you use ?)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Boylen:
I used the zImage (kernel) file...

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] lagloose:
Hi,

I assume, that you've already downloaded and extractet adb.zip...

after attaching the phone via USB to my Computer, the Device could be seen as "Android Phone" in my Device Manager. Via right Mouseclick choose "new Driver" (is it called "new Driver" ? i don't know, cause i'm in Germany here...). Then choose to decide yourself, where to search fo the drivers. Point to the "android_usb_windows" folder of the extractet adb.zip and the Drivers should be installed. Afterwards there should be an Entry "ADB Interface" in your Device Manager.

Good Luck..
