[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] trulife69:
I recently just bought a touch pro sprint phone. I installed .NetCF 3.5 and then installed Advanced Config. I proceded to change,Change file system cache to 8MB,Change file system filter cache to 131072,Change Glyph cache to 32KB. That was the only tweak I have done. Besides that I put google maps cab and torch button cab on there.

For the most part its pretty much stock the way it came. I was wondering about a different media player. I havnt used the media player that came on my phone much but everyone on the net claims it sucks and says TCPMP is best..is it? OR is there a better media player?? And is it worth changing to a new media layer?? If anyone has any tips let me know..I want to make this phone as cool as I can but there is a lot of apps I dont feel I need.

Let me know

Thanks

TCPMP is good very good, but the latest paid coreplayer is so much more improved. It handles avi's smoother & the ui is more polished otherwise it is the same app

In as few words as possible, yes, it's better. TCPMP is capable of many more formats, for one thing. It has better playlist support, for another. Frankly, the HTC audio manager is a better music player than WMP, and I hate them both (I'm a staunch MortPlayer supporter for music playback). For video, I have tried many, but I've only been happy with TCPMP. I'm usually NOT a big fan of uni-task software, but MortPlayer and TCPMP are the total cream of the crop in music and video playback on portable devices. Their price only serves to make them more desirable.

One word of warning: if you start flashing home-cooked ROMs, and it seems almost everyone on XDA does, at some point, check to see if the cook has included it. Many who do not include TCPMP have jibed their ROM so much that it doesn't work with TCPMP, no matter what you try.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] corneliusm:
TCPMP is better than WMP on the Touch Pro, as it supports many more formats. It's what I use. I'm currently using NRG's EnergyRom 3.0 (I believe there's a CDMA version of it for you Sprint users), which has TCPMP included, along with latest versions of Google Maps, .NET CF, AdvConfig, and other utilities. I would definitely recommend flashing that badboy with a custom rom- you'll notice a huge difference.

Btw, don't listen to the over-blown performance claims of those touting CorePlayer- their QTV driver doesn't work worth a damn on our devices. I've tried it on my Fuze- trust me, it's not worth the money.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] climber1872000:
That’s not completely true. The best results will depend on which format you are trying to play. For example, WMV plays best on windows media player and AVI plays best on the Core player. Core player works great if you have the correct settings. You’re best “free” option is TCPMP. :D

Search for this version:TCPMP-0.72RC1-ARM-PPC-recomp-03.CAB
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] ahuskins:
Tried them all and TCPMP has it's uses. If you are going to encode movies to watch on your device put them in m4v and TCPMP is pretty darn good.

When it comes to music playback though I will have to disagree with the above posts. I have tried them all as well and the absolute best in my opinion is Nitrogen. Simply awesome.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] burnblue:
It's best for video. Music will be up to your preferences. I use WMP for Today Screen and Voice command integration
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] trulife69:
What advantages does updating rom do for phone? NRG's EnergyRom 3.0..is this the rom I should use??And what is this sprint CDMA version?Is it a rom?

and do I need to back up before deciding to upgrade to this cdma version? Sorry for all the questions,you guys are awesome.how do I tell what ROM i

have on my phone as of right now?

And!!! I just installed skyfire..should I be deleting enternet explorer off my phone if I only use skyfire now?? And If I get the tcpmp should I delete windows media player??

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Myrddin Wyllt:
WMP and IE are considered system files. Good luck deleting them without crippling something. Just ignore them and/or delete the shortcuts from the programs menu.

As for the rest of the advice, if you don't know the difference between CDMA and GSM, and don't know which one your phone is, I would forget about flashing my phone, until I knew it like the back of my hand, if I were you, unless you want to turn your shiny, expensive phone into a shiny, expensive brick.

Hint: you have a CDMA phone, which means a ROM written for GSM will completely and irreversibly disable your phone.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Farmer Ted:
Yeah, there's no deleting PIE or WMP (you can try, but you will fail, lol). You're going to have to cook your own rom, and figure out how to remove them without screwing a bunch of other things up. They still come in handy from time to time. I'm not sure how well ringtones work without wmp-I guess another media player can handle them. PIE is good for downloading off of rapidshare or other sites where there's a countdown. It's also good for logging into free wifi networks. The HTC Streaming Video works well with it, too.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] xboomer55:
Before you delete any built in apps, download and play this video clip (15 MB)

http://rapidshare.com/files/268091340/Comedy_Central_Stand-Up_Erin_Foley.mp4

It is a podcast video from Comedy Central. I did not encode it. It is MP4 and I might have renamed the .m4v extension to .mp4 (can't remember). the resolution is 600x400 (or so) with a decent bitrate.

TCPMP won't play it

Coreplayer won't play it/

Windows Media Player will play it

HTC Album will play it

TCPMP and Coreplayer are software-only renderers. WMP and HTC album use hardware acceleration built into the Qualcomm chipset.

It seems that only MP4 (m4v) formats have native h/w support on Raphael. I don't know if .wmv is also supported.

I also use TCPMP and Coreplayer (own it). Each has pluses and minuses.

Ive tried to install 2 different telus radios for my touch pro on metro pcs but they keep quiting after like 5% and say unable to install. Any suggestions. I was told that was the best radio for metro.:confused:
[Touch Diamond CDMA] blantoncg:
I'm not familiar with Metro PCS, but if it is GSM then it might not work... Not sure though :/
[Touch Diamond CDMA] rocker2344:
say i have a sprint diamond. can i use more than 1 raido. or does it wipe out the old radio and place the new one?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] trulife69:
When I use my phone on the net I cant go to every web site like my pc...You probably know that but is there any apps or anything I can do that will let me access more or all sites with phone?? Or is a mobile phone only allowed to visit "mobile web sites"?

thanks

Skyfire, Iris, Opera, and IE all can see all of the sites. You need to check your settings whether it wants to be recognized as a mobile or desktop. If mobile is set, then some sites will redirect you to the mobile sites.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radak23:
I currently have a Diamond and TP2 with stock ROM's.

Diamond worked perfect with carkit untill i performed major ROM upgrade from htc.com. now it will connect and not reconnect on either device or carkit restart.

My TP2 behaves EXACTLY the same - connects and drops after either restarting. when connected it works fine - voice/dialing etc etc.

My car kit is a JVC KS-BTA200 connected to my KW-AVX810 head unit.

i've read all comments on google/xda's etc - well almost all! to no avail.

the devices are all set to visible obviously and all paired. ive read that a registry edit possibly fixes the issue but my TP2 & Diamond dont have the required reg strings. (that i can find!!)

i have the remote registry tool installed on my Desktop - so im ready to make changes!

please, if anyone can help i will very grateful!!

Hi, I am using my Touch Pro 2 with the same HU and Bluetooth adaptor as you but no such problem so far.

It used to have this problem then I try to connect using Window CE as the phone setup and choose another Connection Key instead of default 0000 to pair the phone with the HU.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radak23:
ok, well i just tried connecting via searching for the device from the HU. it finds my device - i tap enter (to connect on HU) then it just jumps to a blue flashing 'connecting' then goes to a yellow 'error' straight away. if i select 'open' on the HU then it connects (connecting with a different ID - a number '6') but only untill i restart the HU.

also as a test i just tried an Xperia (just had one laying around LOL) and it does the exact same as mine!! ARRRRGHHH!

so im glad to say i believe it is not an HTC issue!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radak23:
ok so i have an update - the problem is my HU will not pair correctly and it will not store a pairing. great.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radak23:
another quick one - have found others are having trouble with their HU/adapters. thanks anyway everyone!

TP2 Bluetooth and voice dialing working fine ???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ton66:
Have you tried to reset your carkit? I had the same problem after the rom-update with my TP1 and I put my carkit (Bury CC9060) back to factory settings. So I did the same this morning after I updated my TP2 and now it works just like a charm. Of course I don't know if your carkit has this possibility. Good luck, greetz Ton
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] radak23:
'iznogoooog' - yes it work perfectly until you restart either device - 'ton66' - unfortunatley a reset is pretty much all i can do!!! eeeeek!

hopefully a reset will fix it! - i did unplug my b/tooth adapter then switch the unit on - then off then plug it back in.. didnt change anything.. oh well! will do complete re-set 2day!

BTW:

thanks so much for everyones help!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rcbear:
Got a questions. I am using the AVX-826 with build in Bluetooh. I want to know if you guys get the Signal Strength show on your Head unit is correct. on my unit pair with TP2. The Signal Strength indicator doesn't move. it always show the strength with my phone is connected to the unit and it stay that way.

The Battery Strength indicator does work and show the correct battery level.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] schelbi:
I have exactly the same prob!

Hi,

I have a AXV800 and a BTA200.

My first device was a Artemis with WM6.0. No problem so far!

Then I changend to a Diamond with WM 6.1 and had the same problem as mentioned before. Now I tried my new TP2 and still the same problem.

And I tried the old Artemis again with a new 6.1 ROM and the same problem as on the other two phones.

Now I think it depends on the WM build. 6.0 seems to work 6.1 not!!!!!!!!!!

I did a reset on my AVX800 two times without luck!

I think I'm going to use a normal phone without Windows mobile for the next test!

Schelbi.

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] diaztradeinc:
You won't be able to pull and push the one file, you need the whole framework.apk if you want to push. I think it's best to just flash, or download the rom then pull the framework.apk and push. The file is statusbar_backround.png i believe.

do u know what dont work on this rom..the only thing i dont like bout the HERO is there is no bluetooth..other then that its great

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Z҉A҉L҉G҉O̚̕̚:
Is the framework.apk

com.htc.resources.apk

?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] diaztradeinc:
Download it from the thread jonnylicious has, then open both apks, copy and paste the res folders on to the same apks on the rom you want to flash, sign the update and flash. lol not that simple, you cant push the two apks because they run on there own odex files, so thats why you have to copy paste just the res folders to the original rom you want the dialer on.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] diaztradeinc:
Nah its in:

framework-res.apk/res/drawables you have to change it there then

framework-res.apk/res/drawable-480x320 and in..

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jamizzal:
question johnny...one thing i noticed when looking thru the roms zip file is that this uses a different mms.apk...i think this is the new one that used to give us fits before do you think swapping this mms.apk with the one from say jachero 2.7.4 which JAC used the older hero.apk would be better since i kno i didnt have any problems with that...???? or do yu think this is just a problem with the rom cuz im missing more n more text even my own sister just called me lol

if so what exactly would i have to do to get er done....

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jamizzal:
lol...i dont want to either...lol but with the mms.apk i remember in the past JAC had decided to go with an older mms.apk from an older build of hero....i would like to know if we can change it as well to see if it makes a difference
