I really hope some one of the pro's here can help me with my problem. The rest of the world including the German HTC support haven't a solution.

I type in the settings for my vodafone internet flat correctly with the connection adress wap.vodafone.de. Then it works fine for a while. After a few minutes when I click on data connection in the Comm Manager I always get the "connection setup" which is changing the adress to web.vodafone.de which is wrong. I have tried to deactivate the "connection setup" but it has no effect. Hard and soft reset the same.

My question: Can I delete this function anywhere? I really don't know what I am doing wrong because on my Touch HD it works fine all the time.

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] NotATreoFan:
Try deleting a few registry keys.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\ConnectionSetup]
"Module"="\\Windows\\ConnectionSetupAuto.exe"
"CmdLine"="a"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\ConnectionSetup]

Hi guys ive been on 3.9.10 since the day i rooted, about a week ago.

now CM updater tells me that 4.0.1 is available. if i download this wil it download directly to my SD card?

since i am using the RAv1.2.0G recovery.img file will this be as easy as:

1. renaming the update-cm-4.0.1-signed.zip to update.zip

2. turning the device off and then holding HOME plus POWER to get into recovery and just going to wipe device

3. apply update.zip from SD card?

or wil i have to go into command prompt on my machine and connect my device via USB and do everything with the fastboot commands from my computer?

i had a hard time rooting and updating to the 3.9.10 myself (meaning it took me longer than others) and im just trying to figure out the exact steps to do this.

the only tutorial threads i have seen are for how to install HERO roms and i dont want those since they are still having issues with sometimes Blut tooth not working or Wifi not working etc

thanks for any help guys!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] crxtasi:
That's all you need to update your ROM to v4.0.1 enjoy! :D
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] dills84:
the CM updater will actually do it for you also. i just did it on my MT3G with no problems.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] nextelbuddy:
thanks so much guys i updated no problem.

now that i feel more comfortable i think i am going to try a HERO rom out now before i load up my device again full of apps.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] V6-Maniac:
I have noticed one thing yesterday.

From the moment i had my Rhodium (2weeks ago) i installed advanced Config 3.3 on my Rhodium.

From the start i had the "SDcard power management" enabled.

Since then i had a terrible battery life, 20% loss in 3 hours so at the end of the day my battery was empty.

And did not blame the powermanagement of this.

Trying to locate the power loss i used acbPowermeter.

After two weeks i came till the conclusion that there was nothing which drains my battery.

True out the day i use my phone for just a couple off calls and sms messages.

3G is disabled because the poor reception.

Also auto weahter updates every 2 hours and my mail is also checked every 1 hour.

Bluetooth is always discoverble which does not effect battery drain more then bleutooth off.

Activesync is killed and Opera does realy close and used the nopushInternet tweak.

So after testing al these and more.

Even how much those apps uses de proc.

I had to try one more thing, disable the SDcard power management in Advanced Config 3.3.

And today that config change made me verry happy.

Normaly i start working at 5am and work till 3pm in that time the battery has lost 60% power.

And today i was supprised my Pro II had 91% power left.

So i just want to let you know that in my case the SDcard Power management f*****k up my batterylife.

Specs

HTC Touch Pro II

ROM-Vers: 1.19.404.1 (51489) NLD

ROM-Date: 06/22/09

Radio-Vers: 3.44.25.27

Engergy Info Tab says at 90% battery life:

Last fully charged

23:24 Thu 18aug 2009

Standby time:

18 hours and 40 minutes

Speak time:

1 hour and 4 minutes

Device Use:

5 hours and 4 minutes

I believe these specs aren't that bad because before i disabled the power management my battery would be emty in 16 hours.

So i hope that my findings will help you all.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] faria:
Are you sure about that?

in most devices bt in descovery mode drains the hell out of the battery!

I always have my BT ON only, because thats all you need once you devices have been paired.:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] V6-Maniac:
Hey Faria,

First off all i still love your rom on my old wiza200.

Back ontopic:

As i found on the internet and my findings with the discoverble mode that it is not on all the time.

It only opens the BT pairing when a device want to pair.

After that it closes and acts as BT on mode.

BT does not sends it signal all the time.

But correct my if i am wrong

edit

If i may believe AcbPowerMeter the power drain with BT on and BT discoverble is nill and BT off against BT on is that it isn't a power drainer
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] faria:
Wow!

ha.. you mean you have it in a timed descovery mode. if that is the case then it is correct.

if i m not mistaking bt on only, drains less than 1% in 24 hours of the battery.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] HeavyComponent:
I get 7 hours of battery life and I'm a heavy user. I already have that option disabled. I need to improve this battery!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Deleted member 308374:
incredible!! your results are great!! any other detailed report, to clarify things a bit?? it would be interesting to have some data to elaborate some statistics and see what we come up with :)

in your fisrt post, you mean that you achieved the written results at the cost of only 10% battery life, or have I misunderstood it all??? if it's correct, wow!! °_° you have a nuclear battery! from 100% (and powermanagement enabled) I usually achieve 24 to 26 standby hours, 30min calls, 5 hours device usage (most of them connected on 3g). no bt nor auto connections of any kind.

thinking about it, it sounds a bit strange though: the OS is basically the same since quite a long time, and so the management of sd power (I think). so why would it do good (if enabled) on many devices, and not on TP2, having on the contrary such a bad impact on battery life?? I hope my question is clear enough!

since I'm no expert or programmer, I'd really like to have a little explanation by someone who really knows how these things work! ;)

thanks a lot for the contribution, everything that may improve battery life even just a minute is super appreciated! :) best regards!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Deleted member 308374:
waiting to see the final results!! :)

btw, what is "power special trick"?? never heard of that.. sounds useful ;)

the more minute of battery life we can obtain, the better!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] thisguy10:
how do you disable the sd card power management? i want to give this a try. also this is my first post and id like to say this site has alot of useful information!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] elite-fusion:
any updates :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Deleted member 308374:
I tried disabling and...well maybe there is some little improvement here, but I don't know if it's really because of this or if it's because of different patterns of usage during the days.. mine varies a lot.

as a raw comparison, it went from almost 60hrs standby and 5 of usage to almost 75 and 6 /6.5. both test with phone always on on 3g network, no data connections, no wifi, bt and such. just simple usage (documents reading, editing, tweaking, mostly PIM related tasks.

again, I'm not really sure it's power management related.. maybe V6Maniac did a more rigid comparison, mine's not worth it :)

waiting for updates ;)

cheers

Palringo

Guys,

I am not a techie so dont flame me if what I say proves to be wrong.

When I installed cleanRAM and when went to the Customized Process List, I saw Palringo as one of the running processes. I remembered using Palringo on the day I installed it, but never after that, which is at least 10 days before. And it stayed there even after a day. Hence I decided to remove the installation and the process is gone now.

Now my batter is really good!!! I had a full charge by 6 pm yesterday and now it is holding at 84%. I did connect to Internet through WiFi for about 20 to 30 mins for skype call, updated weather and stock. Yet it is holding at 84%.

Let me observe it for few more days and let me come back to you if I find anything interesting.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Deleted member 308374:
it is known that certain programs are really nasty battery drainer. there's a recent thread somewhere reporting that a (maybe older( version of ESET mobile antivirus did the same. so we have another entry for the black list of abnormal battery drainer ;)

thanks a lot!

Hello

How can i change the map for the camera?

I want my pics on my storage card and there is a map on it DCIM/100XPRIA

Kind regards
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comeradealexi:
install a program called Advanced Config

i think in there is a option where you can choose where to save it.

Search for Advanced Config but you have to installed Net CF 3.5 first

not sure if there is an option though
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
Recently I flash Hero firmware to my little HTC G1, and found the social network integration to be very cool.

But the problem is Hero firmware is so slow so I have to revert back Cyanogen firmware, but I really miss the fact that Sense UI can update my Google Contact with Facebook Contact photo.

A quick search around lead me to this website:

http://www.koushikdutta.com/2008/10/synchronizing-google-and-facebook.html

This tool is very cool but the problem is almost all my Google Contact names are not match with Facebook Contact names. So I decided to pull my own base on Koushik tool (thank you very much :D ).

After a few days of coding, this is the first release of Google Contact Sync. As of right now it will allow you to manually sync Facebook Contact photo to Google Contact, and allow you to “link” 2 contacts so you can automatically update all Google Contacts later.

This software is provided free of charge. Make sure to link back here if you post GCS anywhere else :) .

NOTE: Some contact’s photos can’t be synced because owners modify their privacy settings. I can’t do anything about it so stop asking me :D .

If anyone concerns about privacy, you can build your own version of GCS from source code.

Facebook application: Google Contact Sync

All versions: Download

If you think this little tool worth something, you can consider buy me some beers for my Apple Developer Program license :D :

For error report please attach log.txt which can be found at application directory.

changes log:

v1.0.1:

- better error handling

- add file logging.

v1.1:

- fix bugs here and there

- fix an obvious bug that any note insert after <sn></sn> in Google Contact will be removed after sync.

- more streamlined user interface. Now GCS is dead simple to use .

v1.2:

- fix bugs

- add back Koushik’s Auto Match funtion

- threaded, so it will be much more responsive

- call it feature finished !

v1.3:

-fix bugs

-facebook photo preview

-now synced photos are automatically crop to the center. No more stretched contact photo !

-add link to GCS’s facebook application page

v1.3.1:

-fix bugs

v1.3.2:

-fix bug for people who has more than 200 “links” between Gmail and Facebook

Note: Beware of bugs :D
[G1 Apps and Games] jacknmary:
I look forward to trying this when I get to my pc
[G1 Apps and Games] dlorenzod:
Doesn't work for me...when I enter my Gmail info and hit enter, I get an unhandled exception error
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
Please read the readme included. You enter your gmail info and CLICK on login button. Sorry but I don't have much time fine tuning those stuff :)
[G1 Apps and Games] uansari1:
Probably a dumb question... but does this just sync our Gmail contacts with our Facebook contacts, which then eventually sync to our phones? Does it just have to be run occasionally to keep the pics up to date?

Thanks for this software man...
[G1 Apps and Games] jacknmary:
I wanna try it... but... "The server at heartofangel.com is taking too long to respond".
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
Sorry but my host is down, for now :(

http://www.dreamhoststatus.com/2009...alcons-and-hawks-all-going-down-for-a-moment/

@uansari1:

Yes you need to fire up the tool now and then and click Sync All to get all latest Facebook photos. Maybe I will try to make an Android version of this tool sometime next month as it will be much more useful :)
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
Just a head up notice that the site is back online now
[G1 Apps and Games] andonnguyen:
There used to be an free app in the marketplace called facebook sync that does the same thing, here is the apk.

or a directlink to the file here:

http://fbsync.plan99.net/FacebookSync-2.2.apk

and a cached copy of the site (the original site seems to be experiencing difficulties):

http://74.125.155.132/search?q=cach...fbsync&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=safari

I believe the code is here (not certain though):

http://github.com/palfrey/fbsync/tree/master

Mods feel free to modify my post if it violates some kind of copyright infringement laws.
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
I know this one, too but faced the same problem when trying it: almost all of my contacts doesn't match Facebook Contact names. That's why I wrote this one instead.

btw, anyone knows why FBSync faces trademark infringement? :o
[G1 Apps and Games] Dr J:
Apologies if I've missed it, but :

Can you select which contacts to sync pictures, and which to skip, or does it just sync all of them?

Some people obviously use a FB profile pic of something other than themselves, a baby, pet or amusing image of a potato that looks like male genitalia, for example.
[G1 Apps and Games] bjehsus:
I think I read somewhere Facebook ban the use of FB, and such from third party app names.
[G1 Apps and Games] dlorenzod:
Nope...same error if I click the login button. Is it working for anyone else?

Please check first post for updated version and changes log
[G1 Apps and Games] deepside7:
Thanks mate :)

Does anyone know where these images get stored? On the SD card or on the phone itself? Possible memory hog?
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
Sorry for the absent guys, I was really busy with my real life and work recently. I'm back and trying to iron out all the obvious bugs in current version.

Possible changes:

- Much more stable release

- User interface tuning a little bit.

- New feature to show selected contact's picture so you don't have to open browser to see for yourself :D

- Fix an obvious bug that any note insert after <sn></sn> in Google Contact will be removed after sync.

Near future features:

- Syncing other information fields like birthday and such.

@Dr J : You can choose which pair of contacts to sync, so yes :)

@deepside 7: it's stored on the phone itself. I don't think it will be a memory hog as I doubt that Google developer cache all the contact picture in memory rather than load it on demand :D
[G1 Apps and Games] Wysie:
Seems awesome, thanks for this! Will try it out later tonight :D.

GCS1.1 released! :D

Please check first post for changelogs.

@atsic: I will look into your problem and make a minor release after this. Thanks :)

edited: got your problem but I need to sleep now, will make a bug fix version tomorrow I promise.
[G1 Apps and Games] polygonal:
I love the funtionality that one can pick and match, but could you implement some kind of auto match function? I did not have too much problem with facebook names not matching google contact name, so having to link each contact one by one is very tedious :(
[G1 Apps and Games] bjehsus:
Also, an option for a local database of matches rather than cluttering the notes field would be cool.
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
I will re-enable that feature next release.

I would consider that, but one thing I love for that note field idea is it leave your data in the cloud, so you don't have to maintain a db of your own. Other reason is it's compatible with HTC Sense UI
[G1 Apps and Games] atsic:
thank u a lot!!! Is really really a useful software!
[G1 Apps and Games] bjehsus:
Dude, can you put the code up on GitHub? I'd like to check it out, and see if I can help at all.
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
Too tired tonight, got atsic's problem sorted out. Got some stuffs push to behind thread so user interface should be much more responsive. I will try to make a release tomorrow.

@bjehsus: aside from version 1.0 source code, I don't feel like publish my code anywhere else yet to maintain my own pace and work. Sorry about that :)
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
GCS 1.2 released.

For this version I would like to call it finished and let it be for now as I'm moving to something else unless major bugs are found :) .

I'm investigating to expand it capabilities to sync other information as well, but it's still under consideration.
[G1 Apps and Games] atsic:
thanks for the bug fixes.. everything working flawless actually!
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:

Just to let you know that GCS is now approved facebook application. I will try to update it on as problems show up.

Thx :)
[G1 Apps and Games] andonnguyen:
is there anyway we can preview the contact picture? some of my friends have random pictures, and I'd prefer not to set it as their contact picture.
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:

i second that...would love to see it in the next version...and awesome app...thanks for that!!

[G1 Apps and Games] 2leaponover1:
I can't even get this working. It downloads an .rar file. I renamed it to .apk, and it didn't install correctly. I also renamed it to .zip and tried to unzip it and it said it was corrupted? Any ideas. I only have one name using facebook synch that does not sync up correctly and it just so happens to be my wife, lol. Trying to download this to fix one simple picture!
[G1 Apps and Games] priide:
Is there anyway for better quality pictures? I know this is not the developers fault. But damn the pics look awful when they show up for a call. All pix elated, sorry had to rant just wish we could up the picture quality. Thanks for this it's awesome, highly appreciated!
[G1 Apps and Games] jasimeii:
i have a few contacts that just won't sync with each other or their picture won't show... anyone know a fix? have any ideas? thanks :)
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
New version 1.3 is released. Check first post for change log.

@jas: it's because their owners modify their Privacy settings. No one can do anything about it :D .

@priide: blame Google, they only allow so much resolution for a photo :( .

@2lea: this is a Windows application, please :)
[G1 Apps and Games] jasimeii:
oh sorry, i totally read right past that!

so I keep getting this error now: (I think it's because people deactive their facebooks...?
[G1 Apps and Games] linh1987:
@jasmeii: new version 1.3.1 is released with you bug fixed I hope :)

Since the Modified Phone.apk by cytown has been updated to include a bigger picture during calls, can contact sync be updated to support the bigger picture? The picture fits fine now but it is a little blurry. Thanks linh keep up the great work :]

[G1 Apps and Games] xManMythLegend:
Shouldnt I be hesitant to give this app both my Gmail and FB password ?

I dont mind the FB one..but the Gmail one is questionable. Other apps just sync with your presently on the phone contacts.

If you are that worried, change your password before and after running the program.
