How do your messages come through? Are they via sms? If so you can use an app called HD Tweak to wake device on new message. As for TT, perhaos invest in a car charger and then you don't have to worry about the battery.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ASK768:
I know this is not much of a solution but if you go to settings tab -- all settings (bottom left corner) and then in the middle tab (cant remember the name) --- power.

in here, go to the 3rd (last tab) and there you can disable the screen dimming and and sleep mode (first 2 options) by unchecking them
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] skulk3r:
I am also using TomTom in the car at the moment and yes it does drain the battery...i think that asides from getting a car charger (they're cheap - just look for a in-car USB charger and use your USB cable), the best alternative is to let the screen dim, but NOT switch off. So let your screen turn off its backlight, and that should extend your battery life considerably.

Also, maybe try some of the solutions listed in this thread:

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ddino:
ok guys bit more info

not worried about tomtom working whilst screen off that was just a example i gave, however my chaeffer work software does not ring/alert me when the screen is locked

now the software works via gprs and log's into my office server when they get the booking it gets logged into there system and routinly passed down to the drivers

i have a car charger but the problem is i am not in the car all the time, or near a mains supply only go to the car when booking come through

now is this a programming issue by the company i work for? if so, what could be done to correct this?

i am looking at some after market apps play around with them and see how i get on.

thanks you for all your help so far

This may be redundant and borderline stupid but here it goes.

When I use some of the download sites, I get a file with a .zip.jar extension. Is this something I need to extract to get the zip file, or do I simply rename it to a zip file? I've tried the rename thing and cant get the update.zip file to flash. I've tried a couple of browsers and both pc and mac, and still get the .jar on the end initially. Can anyone help?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Cheesebaron:
Usually they should just end in zip. I don't know why they would end in jar. Where are you downloading from?

[Hero, G2 Touch General] nicelad_uk:
Probably never mate, they have never had an Android handset on their market. O2 seem to be a bit lapse laitly as they don't seem to have the same amount, or type of phones they used to have. All they seem to stock is Sony Ericsson...?

I'm on o2 contract wise (rolling 30 day simplicity) and bought my phone outright.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joncaines:
Samsung Android (Galaxy/i7500)

There is an O2 android mobile, it should be available 10th Aug 2009.

Samsung Galaxy (android phone) Pricing and Release Date, apparantly correct.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Mansn:
The only thing that the Galaxy has going over the Hero is an LED flash, OLED screen and it's a little thinner. Other than that HTC kicks it all over the field. And yes, O2 has ridiculous pricing.

Last night my Diamond droped at the flor and after that my screen is dead, I could get in my phone by active sync and lucky me have Pocket controler pro installed so I could test all the functions of my dear phone and everything seems to work well.

I gues the screen is broken or is it possible that there is a backlight at the screen which can be broken, if it is the screen where I can get one at the best price or where I can get one build in in Brasil where I am at this moment?

I have apps to sd on Cyan and everyday I check my internal memory and it seems it move a megabyte down everyday or so like I checked and hour ago and it said 75mb now its like at 72mb. I have apps2sd and caches for web and market what is going on? I have installed a few apps but their going on my sd card.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diceman4:
The apps themselves are on the sdcard, but any data they store or produce gets put in internal memory. It is a pretty bad Idea to store you data on the SD, but it is possible. Storing your data on SD will probably slow down your system and guarantee a required wipe after every flash.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MontAlbert:
It is really pissing me off that i can't get wifi to work properly when porting Dream roms over to the 32A. I have changed all drivers, a heap of wifi and init files but still nothing.....

We have rebuilt the boot image with the correct kernel, replaced wlan driver, renamed trout files etc......

Wifi will start up and find the networks nearby but will not connect to any.

Anyone have any suggestions? I am hoping there is one little file we are missing that a simple transfer of that file will get it working.....

Radix and I have tried a bit as well as a few others. He might be able to pop in and say exactly what he has done with what files (I am at work so can't remember everything i have tried to change)....

IDEAS?

****edit*** just noticed this tweet from haykuro: "rogers peeps: you may be able to flash all sorts of craziness soon. :)"
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hakeem9:
I have had no problem getting WiFi to work on any of the Dream-based ROMS. As long as the wlan.ko matches whatever kernel you are using (from whatever boot.img you are using) it seems to work as normal.

I'd imagine you will never have much success using a different wlan.ko and kernel combination than was compiled for.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MontAlbert:
is that with 32A or 32B? Interesting on the matching thing- i think we tried that- we used Amon_RAs kernel and wlan.ko.....

Would we have to use the entire boot image and not just the kernel?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] hakeem9:
I use the entire boot.img (I know this is lazy and loses alot of the cool features of the ROM) and then the corresponding wlan.ko from whatever image the ROM came.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] MontAlbert:
ok. I was trying to keep as much of the original intact as possible.....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Radix999:
I've tried replacing the entire boot.img - makes no difference - wifi will load, but not actually get an IP with any of the newer roms (like cyanogen's or JACxROM).

I suspect it's interacting with some of the /system/bin/ files and something has changed in that department that makes it incompatible with our kernel/wlan.ko.

I've tried replacing wpa_supplicant/wpa_cli/wlan_loader and no luck.

I don't think it's going to help, and I think you're confusing your terminology. Install location basically differentiates between main memory and a storage card.

Any ideas? Help Please!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Cheesebaron:
Are both the recovery mode and fastboot mode not working?

My guess is that you did something to your SPL and screwed things up or you have a faulty device. If you can't get to fastboot or recovery mode, you should send it in for repairs.

And next time use the search function and put it in the NON-development forum.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kumar_r100:

Just like in the topic. How and what to use to backup apps ??

i beleive that the ASTRO file manager (free) gives you the option for apps backup to your sd!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Phil_UK:
Just used ASTRO. Noticed 'Power Manager' was designated 'private' so I could not back that up :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Dayzee:
If its Copyrighted/copy protected it won't be backed up

You could also use root explorer I think - it worked on my magic, I copied the folder "apps" from /data/apps to SD and I think I also managed to copy

one from /system/apps which had all the preinstalled apps in it.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:

well actually drizzy 2.2 works well with private apps. anthing 2.3 and above is based of the new hero release which contains the private app bug. i flashed all new the drizzy roms but i always went back to 2.2 just becuz it has a fully functional market.

Now what? How do I find out what Radio version I have/need? Do I need to get a Radio Rom to flash with the firmware :confused: ?

Thanks
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Nik Ahmad:
Salam mutasim, kindly read this guide for newbie

1) Enter bootloader by press & hold camera button + reset button

(tricolor screen shows wording Olinex 2.2) and take out SD card

2) Make sure your PDA & PC connected by USB cable

3) Click RomUpdateUtility Inside pcarvalho ROM

4) Just follow instruction

5) After all process ok, then do hard reset

good luck :D
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] nicandris:
before upgrading, go to settings - device info and check the radio version. it should be 1.59.* If not, then check on pcarcalhos first page of the rom it has a link to the correct radio

No, there is nothing to "unlock" a non 1700 frequency phone to make it capable of accepting 3G speeds on T-mobile
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
I've no idea whether the radio in the Hero is capable of supporting T-Mobiles 3G 1700Mhz band, but I do personally find it hard to believe that HTC would manufacture 2 different GSM Heros (as opposed to a GSM and CDMA one) which differ only by the bands they support since the additional cost involved in having 2 separate production lines is probably far greater than the incremental cost of using a more capable radio in all GSM Heros.

My G1 is a US T-Mobile G1, and it works fine with the 3G bands here in Europe. In addition, if you look up the specs of the Magic on HTCs website, it does not mention the 1700MHz band, but the MyTouch 3G does support and it is essentially a Magic.

This would lead me to believe that it is likely to be a firmware rather than hardware restriction - only time will tell!

Hero coming to T-Mobile USA

By the looks of things at http://www.tmonews.com and with a bit of url manipulation I was able to navigate to this pretty convicing and helpful page.

Anyone have any better resources?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhedgehog:
yeah, but the G1 was designed specifically for t-mobile and so the G1 itself was built to support the bands for all t-mobile networks in one device.

And as the european ones nearly all use 2100mhz, that is a slightly different case.

and as for the URL manipulation, that doesn;t always mean anything.. with the right manipulation, you can get it to show updates for one device on a page titled for a totally different model. however, it would be good if you are right!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Volker1:
G1 = 1700 and 2100 MHz

Hero = 900 and 2100 MHz

So both work fine in europe (2100) but only the G1 will work with T-mo US (1700). Considering that there is no reasonable prepaid 3g data in the US anywhere, not many European travellers will miss the 1700MHz capability of their cell phone.

The choice of the 900MHz band is a bit odd, seems like the only reasonably-sized market for that would be Australia. At least it'll work when you are down-under ;-)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhedgehog:
at the moment yeah, but many European networks are pushing to get access to the 900mhz frequency and use it for 3G once 2G gets turned off.

apparently it has better penetration into buildings or something...don't quite understand the reasons why it should be better for that, but the UK networks certainly want a bit of that action....
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Volker1:
As a rule of thumb, the lower the frequency (longer wavelength) the deeper it is going to penetrate. Thats why you can listen to the radio inside whereas you can't see the sun (visible light=much higher frequency).
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhedgehog:
cool.

I understand now. i suppose it kinda makes sense as well, lower wavelengths tend to have more power anyway,so i shoulda figured that out....
