hindi keypad for windows mobile

after coping fonts in windows install this cab file & reset now u can read &write hindi for more information email me at balraj.bhanot@yahoo.in
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] naveenbhatia:
It's not showing hindi characters. It still shows those boxes. Can you please suggest something that can be done in this regards. I copied the fonts to windows\fonts folder and then installed the keyboard cab.

It shows the keyboard with hindi characters on it but doesn't show hindi characters when typed. It shows boxes. Similarly i tried to open the sites that are using Hindi Font but it's not showing up.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] ammujee:
It's working!!!

Please read the previous post clearly! He is saying to copy the fonts to \windows folder itself NOT in \windows\fonts folder. I tried both and pasting in windows folder worked like a charm. however it gives two warnings regarding 'overwriting' and 'ROM font'. Ignore both and you are good to go. This works but there is some error in rendering the kernel pairs, but readable.

Thanks Balraj bhanot for fonts and keyboard.
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] c_shekhar:
Great!! thanks..

But how to type half character (half "Ka" or Half 'Ta' etc)

can you guide?
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] c_shekhar:
Bump! Bump!
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] maciejst:
Hi'ya'all,

I installed the keyboard and it works perfecto.

Is there any way to make vowels add to consenants (to form "ligatures") rather than appear after, "attached to void" on WM6.5 using this keyboard?

EDIT: It may in fact be the case of the font. I installed the font on the HD2 rather than i8000 and it works all right. Somehow i8000 may have had some font that dit not show ligatures correctly. On the other hand, the keybor crashes the HD2 from time to time. Not a big issue though.

Rgrds,

Maciejst

Hi ya

Got my unlock code and it ulocked my G1 succesfully. But now i have some problems activating it . I press the "menu" button then went to "APN settings"

then i pressed again the "menu" button and did "new APN"

So there i'm lost. Cuz i have Cosmote (Cosmote is greek) and i don't know it's APNs..

Can anyone help me ???

What do i need to write ?

name =

APN =

Proxy =

Port=

username =

password =

server =

MMSC =

MMS proxy =

MMS port

MCC =

MNC =

APN type =

Thanks for the help

P.S BTW i don't have a Data plan does it mind ???
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Not sure of your APN settings, but you can register over wifi. You will need to setup adb (The Android Debug Bridge), which is a very simple process, so have a look for a guide on that.

If you do find APN settings, it shouldn't matter that you don't have a data plan, they will most probably charge you as you use data. So it will work, but when your phone signs in syns it will probably use a couple of megs which you will get charged a lot for. On my pay and go plan they charge £3/mb :<
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] florevil:
ok thanks for the help

Edit: god that's difficult any video tutorial or a tutorial with pics ?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
It may look intimidating, but it really isn't hard.

Adb just involves extracting the sdk and installing a driver. Then to enable wifi copy and paste that command.

Here's a guide on setting up ADB

The only command you will need from that huge thread on enabling wifi is this:

am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.Settings

Hi there,

I've just signed up so that I could reformat http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Dream_Boot_Image , but I can't seem to login to the wiki.

I've tried with Firefox 3.5 and Safari 4, both show the board software indicating a successful login, before redirecting back to the wiki where the login box is still present and "you need to login to edit.."

I tried clearing cookies for wiki.xda-developers.com, but it didn't help.
[About XDA developers] Addicted2xda:
I am not sure, but probably you need to have a certain amount of Posts before you can update the wiki
[About XDA developers] IvanDobsky:
Hmm, is there perhaps some way I can get around this? Really every question I have has probably been answered 100 times over, and asking them again just to generate credit seems a bit silly. The only thing I can help contribute to is organizing the existing information..

[About XDA developers] IvanDobsky:
Thanks corepda, Addicted2xda.

I'll see about finding an admin to ask. There is no 'sign in' link, only the standard phpWiki login box, which seems to be wired to the forum login script. However simply clicking the login button gives me a login failure (as per the paragraph you quoted), and entering my username+pw logs me in at the forum but not at the wiki.. :)

i think it is ok that new members can't edit the wiki...i am able to do it and i posted a page few days ago so everything is ok from my point of view and the wiki is still editable

remember the wiki vandalism?

and when our ftp went down?

so don't rush to deal with it...it is just fine this way
[About XDA developers] Flar:
1. This issue seems to have nothing to do with being a new member or not, my test account has the same issue and that's been here just as long as I have been.

2. Wiki vandalism has nothing to do with being a new member, a new member can just as well have useful info to share.

3. FTP downtime? what has that got to do with it? The last ftp downtime I could remember had nothing to do with new members but with us not scanning for viruses.

Best regards,

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] John North:
Hi,

Is anyone having the same problem as me? I've had my Hero for a few days and in general I'm happy with it, but I can't get HTC Sync to work properly. I'm using Outlook 2007 on Vista, and when I connect the sync works but leaves me with almost as many "Unknown" entries as properly synced ones. So far I haven't been able to identify any common element in the "Unknown" entries, and I'm stuck.

I've noticed posts that suggect syncing with a gmail account and then syncing this with the phone, but I'd prefer to keep my contacts in my own computer environment. Can anyone help, or perhaps suggest a different program? I realise it's early days for the Hero, but my phone is awkward to use at the moment.

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] John North:
I've answered my own question. I hadn't noticed that all the "Unknowns" were entries that were companies and businesses that I'd entered into the "Company" field in Outlook. I've just manually moved all these names to the "Full Name" field, and the sync works. It's not really satisfactory because it's not the way I like to use Outlook, but it'll do until a fix or a better program is developed. I have two company names that begin with a number, and these don't sync, not yet anyway. I'll have to find another work-around.

It's a shame that such a great piece of hardware is let down by such sloppy programming, but I recall that it took Microsoft a long time to sort out Activesync.

I hope this helps anyone in a similar position.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vrajdeber:
I have the same problem and still can't fix it.

I just want Google to fix that faster because it's the only thing I don't like in Hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] John North:
I use the "First Name" field only in Outlook with nothing in the "Company" field, and I file as "First name" "Last name", i.e. John North, not North, John. When you click on "Full name" in the "New Contact" sheet you should only have one entry, First & Last Name in the "First Name" field. That's all I do. It's unsatisfactory from my point of view, and I hoping that there will be an update to fix it, or a better program produced.

I feel the same as you - there's little to fault the phone, but issues like this just knock the edge off the enjoyment of a new piece of equipment. I would also like a DivX player because I've got many hours of recorded TV which I've already converted to DivX which I used to watch when I had Windows Mobile.

It's relatively early days for the Android & Hero so I'm hoping things will improve.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minogue:
Well i already tried speeding up my HERO by following the steps from another thread here in the forum and it just didn't work for me.

So Heres what i Tried and it just seems to work out for me! And its very simple too.​

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: DOWNLOAD "OVERCLOCKWIDGET" FROM THE MARKET AND SET THE MIN MHZ TO (128000) AND MAX TO (528000) MHZ. THIS SHOULD HELP KEEP THINGS RUNNING SMOOTH.

^^^^Also from the settings of "OverClock Widget" you can set the MHZ Frequencies while the screen if off to the a low but not so low Frequencies in order to save battery!

So if your like me and like to have a lot of widgets on your phone then Using Task manager to kill certain apps might just do the trick....

First of all never end applications such as

com.htc.socialnetwork.provider

com.htc.provder.weather

HTC media uploader

Touch input

HTC Location Service
​

and more! They do not have an icon if your using "advance task Manager" All other apps are good to end such as music,peep,market, Messages,Mail, Google Mail, and of course Browser which uses a lot of memory.

Give it a try and let me know how it goes...​

Heres the link to a video i made to show the performance of my HTC Hero!

Not the best quality.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ClausG76:
Thats the way i do it to.

But i also noticed, that some widgets uses more battery than others. After i removed quick calender and digital clock, i got better battery performance. That might also have some effects on the processing power
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] joemax:
I tried this...

This afternoon and so far this morning the Hero is far more responsive after I wake it up (which was when it was at its most laggy).

I can now immediately slide around the home screens. Before I had to wait a few seconds or suffer ignored screen swipes.

I was not using the Stocks app or widget but it was set to auto update so set it to never update.

Maybe its a process that runs regardless of whether you use the app or widget ??
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ghoonk:
Know what I think might work? An app that reboots the phone.

User selects frequency of reboot (daily? every 2 days? every week?)

User selects time of reboot (12 midnight? 3 am?)

User defines Countdown period (15 seconds? 30 seconds? 1 minute?)

At the user-defined time, the app will run itself, and prompt the user "Reboot Now?". A countdown timer will start.

User can select 'Later', 'In 10 minutes', or if there is no interaction/input, when countdown reaches 0, the app will reboot the phone automatically.

This way, users will always wake up to a 'fresh' phone. What do you guys think?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] piflechien:
Rebooting the device won't make it faster. On the contrary you have to start every apps for the first time so it takes more time.

You'd better leave it on and turn to airplane mode when you don't need it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ghoonk:
Tell that to my phone. It's back to it's zippy self after a reboot, and only slows down after I run Maps, Browser, Google Talk, Market and HTC Mail :P
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minogue:
Well im glad to know it works not only for me but for other people Too!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] asci:
Could you be more detailed about what process must be excluded from closing?

com.htc.socialnetworl.provider

com.htc.provder.weather

HTC media uploader

Touch input

Hi guys, need some help.

i've just rooted my Hero thanks to this article http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=543571 and Quick Boot (which needs root) now works perfectly.

After i've installed overclockwidget i cannot start it as it gives me an error "Star-up error - cannot start Overclockwidget (need Root)".

Any ideas?

thanks in advance.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] joemax:
Surely increasing the CPU speed will also increase battery drain ?

Its also likely to lead to instability and additional heat (Hero gets hot enough when working hard).

Personally I would be wary of doing this.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Huey85:
I have no real issues with battery drainage after tweaking the processor speed; lasts about the same as it would w/out the tweaks.

I do see some minor performance improvements, but on the flip-side, the phone can also get sluggish at times upon waking it up from sleep.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] seshmaru:
I'm confused, my hero runs at 528 stock o_o
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] minogue:
wrong.. the proccesor was underclocked just like with the HTC Magic and the T-mobile G1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] enlightener:
wrong, mine runs at 528 MHz, and I haven't overclocked it :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jayjay:
I can confirm that mine shows 526 (the widget number) as well out of the box. And changing the settings doesn't appear to do anything. It's always returning to 480Mhz - 528Mhz when I restart the app / widget. I've tried this both with SetCPU and OverClock Widget.

The Hero (at least some Heroes) seems to be immune to fiddling with the cpu. And I am sure I'm rooted, because I enabled paid apps in Android Market with MarketEnabler and that's working.

MarketEnabler didn't work out of the box tho - because it had a script that relied on Grep and Grep isn't installed, so I had to empty the AndroidMarket cache by hand from the terminal... Maybe there's something similar preventing fiddling with the cpu speeds?

Hello!

I have a big question. Is there a program for Windows Mobile, that would enable me to dial using bluetooth headset on X1 the way I could on non-wm phones (e.g. S60)?

I've tried Voice Command, but pronouncing non-english names and surnames just did't work. Vito Voice2Go and VoiceDial did't seem to recognise my HBH-PV702, as nothing happened if I pressed the button.

Is there some other software that I could try?

Thanks.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] DjDarkDragon:
Use Voice Command andt give your contacs "Nick names" ounder the contacs name expanned menu.

Then you can pronouncing the "Nick Name" and not the real name.Works great for me.

Good that you found out, because reflashing your phone with a stock rom, which is what they will probably do, is fine. But if you had unlocked it and flashed a custom rom, that would have voided your warranty.

I think it might have to go back to the menders again.
