I've moved from my HD to the IPhone 3GS last week. You see, I was on the iPhone 3G when for some trivial reasons, decided to move to the HD. Initially, it seems to be fun with the range of customizations available right here in this forum but after a while, I think enough is enough. Why? The damn HD is just so unstable I had to reboot the device at least once in 3 days. With the iPhone, I'd probably need to reboot only once in a month or less. With tons of customization to make it behave like an iPhone (like S2U2, etc), at the end of the day, it just could not live up to the smooth and responsive touch of the iPhone and it's stability. It's a pity because many of the WinMo devices out there has more superior hardware but ultimately, being let down by WinMo itself.

I think, that nothing is comparable to N900. Only downside is its weight..

Hi Salman

Could you please mention which cooked ROM is the best for AT&T Tilt (HTC8925). you might have checked it more than me. I have checked so far three ROMs but am not satisfied. Comparison means in the speed sense and less number of useless programs.

At the moment, I found TPC 23053 Titanium Ultimate the best. It has good speed but there are quite many programs which we really don't need. Besides it detects my network configuration automatically (GPRS+WAP+MMS). Till now no ROM has done this not even the original one. Could you help me out hoe to cook a new ROM.

Shahid:)
[Touch HD General] Imperium:
bump,

The Nokia N900 should be an UMPC, how does that compare to WM?

And the N900 "only" has a 600 mhz CPU, will it perform to our likings? Because i prefer snappyness above all. i hate the sluggishness of the HTC phones of the last two years. (TyTN 2, Diamond(2), Pro(2), HD)

The mobile that thinks it's a PC... Phone containing full version of Windows XP on the way

By Eddie Wrenn

A mobile phone is due out at the end of this year which could boast unrivalled features and power - although it might look slightly familiar.

The phone will contain all the usual high-end features, including GPS and Bluetooth, a 4.8in touch screen, WiFi, and a huge amount of storage - and it will run a full version of Windows XP.

The smartphone, created by Chinese company In Technology Group, could usher in a new life for the eight-year-old operating system, which has now been surpassed by Vista and next year's Windows 7.

It will be able to do everything a computer can do - and may end up giving competitors like the iPhone a run for its money.

The 'xpPhone' contains an AMD Super Mobile CPI, with up to 1GB of RAM, which in layman's terms means it should cope with most tasks thrown at it.

While it might struggle with some high-end programs that require extra juice, such as advanced image-editing software like Adobe Photoshop, it should be able to handle programs such as Microsoft Office and video and music playback.

However the phone will have the advantage of being instantly familiar to nearly all computer users, and the plethora of programmes available will offer infinite choice for customisation.

And while Apple's iPhone will still likely win in the looks and ease-of-use department to begin with, it is likely that people will quickly design programs to change the feel of XP to suit the phone's small size.

What it won't do is work as a camera-phone, with just a meager 1.3mp camera which will be best suited for video-calls only.

However the lack of camera is compensated for by a USB port, which will allow the use of any computer peripheral, and a VGA-out port allowing the phone to plug into any computer monitor or many TVs, giving you a fully fledged desktop-like system, or media player, at any time.

The other major flaw is battery life, as it will likely only run for around seven hours with the standard battery, so a charger or spare batteries will be a necessity.

And of course, lastly it's a phone, boasting GSM/GPRS/EDGE and 3G connectivity and available in black, red and silver.

While this model will likely be bulky, heavy, and low on battery life, it may shake up the mobile market, which previously has been dominated by the iPhone, with competition from Windows Mobile, Palm and Symbian.

ITG are now taking pre-orders, suggesting the phone will be released in the coming months. While there is no word on pricing yet, it is expected to be available in Europe via online shops.
[Touch HD General] Step666:
How so?

On what basis do you make that distinction?

Only time will tell.

Personally though, from what I've seen of the UI on videos, I'm not impressed.

WinMo does seem to be a fairly 'heavy' OS though, requiring quite a lot of resources to even run let alone make it snappy.

Given Maemo's background and the fact it's tailored to the CPUs it runs on, it will likely get better performance out of similar hardware.

But, that has always tended to be the area in which WinMo handsets have excelled - top-notch hardware.
[Touch HD General] MaximilianPs:
sorry, but i'll never leave Windows Mobile, and at least i'm so satisfied by HTC that my next produc should be HTC Leo... maybe.
[Touch HD General] smeddy:
Did anyone like the sound of that Win XP phone? I keep thinking I might get it but maybe I've just been blindsided by the novelty factor
[Touch HD General] Step666:
Nope they did not, given it was announced today with a different amount of RAM.

While using the CRC ROM for my older Hermes phone, I could dial my contacts via the dialpad in the following fashions:

1- Last name

2- First name

3- mixed (For "John Smith", I could type J-o-S-m)

On my Raphael, the first two work, but I can't get that last option to work. Am I missing anything?

Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Bruce Inman:
I have never heard of the mixed search, I'm certain that is not available on the Raph.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wingmanjd:
Bummer. This is a sorely missed feature from old.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cokeyblokey:
Can someone with a stock rom please send me the following dll file:

phcanOverbmp.dll

It can be found in the windows directory. I overwrote mine (foolishly without making a backup) and dont like the icons in the new one.

I'd really appreciate it if somebody could post the original here.

Many thanks

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axe77:
Doesn't the dll from ROM reappear when you move the custom dll to another directory (or when you delete it)?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cokeyblokey:
Thanks axe77, you were right. I renamed the dll and after a reset the original was back :cool:

I'm new here so sorry if I'm not in the right place. anyways

I got a Linksys cf wifi card WCF12 for my Ipaq hx2195 with wm5. I bought it off ebay and it didn't come with a driver cd or anything.

I have tried the driver from the linksys website but i can't figure out how to install the driver : http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/support/WCF12/target_url

If anyone could give me step by step instructions on how to install the driver or if you know any other drivers that would work that would be great.

thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rharris118:
Ive been running the deepshining rom for the last few weeks without any problems but for the last few days im experiencing regular crashes and now when i press start, the only icon thats there is the 'today' icon. is there any way i can get into the file explorer so i can run PIM backup?!

Need to do that so i can then re-flash a rom and get going again.

Thanks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] bmszabo:
After switching from Magic to Hero (which is a great improvement!) I've noticed that there are a couple of new recurring processes on the Taskiller list, which I have never seen before on the Magic; eg: com.htc.provider.weather, HTC locatiediens (=localisation service, in Dutch), com.htc.socialnetwork.provider, HTC media uploader; beside TouchInput and Touchflow, which I've already put on my ignore list.

I assume these are specific Sense processes, partly vital for the UI; is there anybody who could give a list of the vital processes, we should put on the ignore list and/ or a list of processes which are safe to kill if system slows down?

I've already contacted the dev of Taskiller; but he says he has no Hero experience, so cannot advice on this issue..

Any advice is welcome, thanks in advance!

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] sausalito:
I have the same question...

It would be great if we know whixh process correspond to what
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Switchbitch:
I fiddled around with this and it's safe to kill everything. The vital processes will just start right up again. socialnetwork.provider and provider.weather are, I'm assuming, to do with Facebook/Google integration and weather widget/applications respectively. If you're going to be killing processes regularly, I'd suggest you put touchflo and touch input in the ignore list, as they need to be running constantly for the UI to work. You can kill them, but the phone will hang for a few seconds while they restart.

I found that guide while doing some research and was wondering if it was a good guide to follow to install NSFAN's latest 6.5 ROM or if there was a better guide out there.

Also, I am still on Verizon's stock 6.1 ROM (with only very minor customizations) and was looking for a way to back up my contacts. I have all my pictures, videos, ringtones, and apps, but was looking to back up contacts. This owuld most likely be easy if I had Outlook, but I don't. I have a Mac with Mail and a Windows 7 machine with Windows Live Mail.

Sorry about so many questions.
[Touch CDMA General] JasonFields:
I just did this for my dads VZW phone Sunday. I used the free trial of SPB Back-UP and installed it and made a back up of entire phone - saved to MicroSD card, then I flashed and installed the same SPB Back-UP and did a Restore - then chose custom back-up and selected what I wanted to restore. It restored his contacts, My Documents, Call Logs, Call History, Text, and all E-mail settings that he had on his phone.. It was FANTASTIC!!! and easy as 1. Install 2. Back-Up 3.Install 4. Recover.

Plus if you ever wanted to go back to Stock 6.1 you can do a full restore and it will put you back at exactly where you were BEFORE you went to WinMO 6.5..

Hope this helps
[Touch CDMA General] TheKartus:
Did you follow that guide with your Verizon Vogue? I have read so much **** about this its confusing. Do you not need to unlock, downgrade the radio, install a rom, upgrade radio, install another rom?
[Touch CDMA General] blueblur1986:
Ok, the backup portion is good. Now the remaining question is that guide and if it is any good?

Anyone got a better one if it isn't?

hi,guys i just downloaded oi file manger ,i need it for weather widget .i got it for the flip clock.i was wanting to know i seen a thread on here for different clocks that people were making and they were very nice.i see that most of them are zip files.i have a non rooted g1 .can you download them to your sd card and use oi file manger to apply and use them ?i want some different clocks or do i need to root and go that route! thanks for your info:)
[G1 Apps and Games] addiosamigo:
if you unzip the files there should be .apk files inside, if you place them on your sd card you can install them via oi file manager. make sure their legit tho, no piracy! :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gambit1982:
Hi

Have got a serious problem. In a nutshell I decided to upgrade my ROM using the Samsung website. Ran the updater - after getting to the stage ‘downloading file 2’ it asked me to manually soft reset the phone. So I did and nothing. By now it had reached the ‘downloading file 3’ stage however the updater then froze too. I looked at my phone and all that appeared is a black screen with picture of white phone in the middle and an overlapping solid yellow triangle with an exclamation mark inside.

The phone now does not shut off/soft rest or anything. I even took battery out for five minutes but still same screen. The next problem is that I tried to run the updater again however it requires active sync and as the phone does not turn on it will not sync up.

Please can someone help with this? I am noob so please don’t suggest any soldering or hacking type methods but I can work my way round a set of clear instructions using basic software. I have spoke to Samsung who have suggested sending it to their engineer but will take two weeks just to give me a reply as to what’s wrong with it! Further if not covered I am screwed for repair costs and if covered it’s going to take ages and I need my phone back asap. As I used the Samsung website software there must be a way to solve this.

Please can all knowledgeable forum users reply as I have previously relied upon and used advice from this forum with much success. I would really appreciate it. Thanks to all in advance.

Hi,

I suggest to ask on www.modaco.com forum, there many people have developed omina roms, so, for sure they know much more about this PDA.

Usually you should be able to enter in bootloader mode and flash a new rom but I don't know omnia. So, ask there and you'll find some answer.
[Touch HD General] dB Zac:
everything was fine, no problems with the phone at all, than I installed Duttys 4.1 rom and ever since the camera doesnt work. I got the camera to work once since then by un-ticking the camera tab from the Touch flow, soft resetting, then ticking the tab again but now thats not even working. I have installed 2 diferent roms since then and it still doesnt work. also the photo album doesnt work from that tab anymore but does in the program list where as the camera doesnt work at all.

Any help would be great
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
Have the same problem myself and have yet to find an answer
[Touch HD General] dB Zac:
I found a guy that used advanced config to change one of the camera settings but I tried it and it didnt work
[Touch HD General] MaskedMarauder:
When you flashed the ROM, did you put the phone into boot loader manually, or did the installation software do it?
[Touch HD General] dB Zac:
the installation software did it
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
I tried that myself and it worked for a while (a couple days) then the camera stopped working again. That trick has not worked since that first time. I have changed roms a couple of times and still nothing.
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
Same here. Also I did accidentally install a rom with the wrong spl and had to hard spl after installing the rom. I think I went from 1.14 to 1.56 or something like that. I had a green tint to the screen until I did the hard spl. I have installed many roms since then and have not had a problem. I did not have a camera issue before this but the camera did work for quite a while after the spl issue. Hopefully this makes sense what I am saying.
[Touch HD General] dB Zac:
so you are saying your camera was fixed after you "re- hard SPL'd" your phone?
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
No, I have an unlocked telstra phone and I had flashed my rom a couple times without needing to hard SPL my phone and never had a problem with flashing roms or the camera. It was only after I flashed to a rom that needed the phone to be Hard SPL'd and I didn't properly Hard SPL my phone before flashing the rom. I got the wierd "green tint" to my screen and realized that i had incorrectly Hard SPL'd. I quickly realized my mistake and then did it correctly and then the newer rom worked fine. It was a couple weeks later that the camera stopped working. I can't remember if I was on the same rom or not from when I Hard SpL'd my phone.

Sorry if this is hard to follow.

My thought is, did my upgrade without properly Hard SPL'ing my phone damage the camera or is it something else. Again, I have since properly Hard SPL'd my phone and flashed many roms since without a problem except the non-working camera.
[Touch HD General] dB Zac:
well I don't know but I hard SPL'd my phone the day I got it with the 1.56 HSPL and I have used may roms on this phone. The rom I installed when this happended was duttys WM6.1 rom
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
I was trying to revert to an older Hard SPL 1.14 and install an older rom to see if that did the trick. Anyway, in my haste I screwed up and installed the older Hard SPL 1.14 and forgot to add in the older Rom so I ended up with the green screen of death. I couldn't get it to connect via activesync and put it in bootloader mode and re-Hard SPL'd it to 1.56 and the green screen was gone. I was about to go back to the Hard SPL 1.14 with one of Duty's older pre 1.56 Roms but thought I would check on the camera again one last time.

Now the camera works. Again, this is not the first time I have gotten the camera to work and I have no idea how long it is going to last but it is working and I am not going to mess with it anymore right now. I will leave the Hard SPL 1.56 and Miri's WM6.5 Rom that I have on the phone alone and see how it goes.

I know this is not a complete answer and I don't know if just re-Hard SPL'ng will work but it is worth a shot. Again, I downgraded first 1.14, screwed up the phone the went back to 1.56 and the camera started working again. At least I know that it is probably not a hardware issue as I have no where to send it back to for repair. All is well in Wisconsin for the time being.
[Touch HD General] dB Zac:
Well two things:

1st can you just tell me exactly what you did, step by step. If I understand you correctly, I have already tried this but there may be a step or 2 that I missed. please include the roms you went from and two also

2nd, just called HTC and they said my the #'s my phone still has some warranty left and they will honor it in the states (I will reflash to tesla rom and the stock SPL before I send it)

Thank you for keeping me up to date on what you have done to get yours working. If your camera fails again, just call the # on the US HTC customer service site.

hello there ,

1.14 radio is the problem ,

try to flash new one which is 1.16 in same form

I havent had 1.14 on my phone since the day after I got it...
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
I am not very good at step by step instructions but you have obviously done a lot of flashing already, I will keep it short. Again, this started out as a botched attempt to downgrade my Rom to an older WM 6.1 Rom using the old 1.14 Hard SPL. You might not want to do this as it will temporarily screw up your phone. If you do, here are the steps I took. Really not too involved. Please read all steps first.

1. I synced my phone and downloaded the older 1.14 Hard SPL and flashed it.

link

2. That screwed up my phone "Aweful Greenscreen effect" and was not able use activesync anymore for flashing. I then put the phone into bootloader mode by powering off the phone. Hold in top power button until it asks if you want to power down. Yes. Then when you power up hold the volume down key and the power button at the same time. Make sure your USB cable it still plugged in. Your phone should now be in bootloader mode.

3. I downloaded the most current Hard SPL 1.56 and ran the HSPL Wrapper Blackstone 156OliNex

4. After that the Green Screen problem was gone and when I checked my camera it worked. I took a couple of photos and no problem. I opened it first with the WM Camera Program button then with the Manilla tab. When I used the Manilla tab it had to map the camera/videocamera button as we as find the photo album. After that it has showed up in Manilla normally every time I go back to it. Again, we will see how long this takes.

Thanks for the info on possibly being able to return the device for warranty reasons to HTC.

Hopefully this helps and my links work.
[Touch HD General] dB Zac:
if you don't mind me asking, what dutty rom did you install because this all started for me when I insalled duttys 4.1 WM6.1 rom
[Touch HD General] dB Zac:
Update

When I said I took the phone all the way back to stock, it wasnt 100% true. I loaded a stock HTC rom not a telstra rom.

with that being said, today I got the RMA # from HTC to have the phone repaired so I downloaded the newest updated Telstra Rom and loaded it onto the phone.By the way, My phone did not have the newest Telstra rom on it ever! When the phone was done, I started to prepair to load the newest stock SPL to go along with the rom when I notice the camera works..... What the hell?!?! I try loading a custom rom on it (miris 6.5 rom), camera still works! Hard reset the phone, camera still works. I don't know what this means but my phone is back on line with all features!

Thanks for everyones help and input
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
Keep your eye on it. It is almost like it slowly looses the connection to the camera and then has a hard time remaking the connection once it is lost. Then you have to do something drastic to get it back. I wouldn't mind so much if it only happened every three or four months but so far I have not been able to keep the camera going past two weeks without loosing it again. Keep me posted if yours goes out again.
[Touch HD General] x5-rwk:
Well that didn't take long. Camera is dead again. Going back to WM 6.1 and SPL 1.14 to see if that makes a difference. "unable to initialize" then camera and album disappears from TF3D.
