You aren't going to get any help with sentences that atrocious. Can you be more clear?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
If you let your battery die while you were installing the SPL and now you can't get into the SPL, you probably bricked your phone. How did you not know your battery was about to die?

[G1 Android Development] KMann561:
my g1 is stuck on the logo how do you fix it i need helppp !!!!
[G1 Android Development] SirThumpaLot:
I fixed my buddy's G1 when he thought he had bricked it. It would never get past the G1 screen & was unable to get into recovery.

I noticed that he was, however, able to get into HBOOT. What I ended up doing was rawkin' the old unroot procedure which was essentially how I had rooted it to begin with.

I downgraded the phone by flashing the DREAIMG.nbh (RC29) file through HBOOT. That brings the phone back to android 1.0.

From there, I simply had him rawk that till he got an ota for donut.

Once he got that, I simply used Universal Androot to root, ROM manager to flash a recovery, flashed haykuro's SPL, then flashed CM6 after that. All was well.

Technically, I could've flashed the OTA radio, etc but I was kinda lazy Stoner status & just figured he could wait for the OTA. Just my $0.02

Peace!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ckacey:
Every time I flip my phone back over to do something on the call screen, I find the darned thing on the home screen, is there a way to make the home screen a bit less "helpful"?

It also comes up almost every time I turn the phone on.

I have a US TMobile TP2 and I use the simple pin password set to 5 min.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] leanne:
If you get rid of the screen lock with the regedit or cab floating around it will stop defaulting to the home screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ckacey:
I don't understand, will that still let the screen lock, but also stop the default home screen problem?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] leanne:
No, it will diable the screen lock, but it will also disable it defaulting to the home screen. Don't know why, but it works.

I have been using s2u2 to lock it instead.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Erbium:

Here he shows

Can anyone help?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] 2alive:
Do a hard reset, if it boots then do hardspl and after flash rom of your choice.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Erbium:
Still the same! This is a rom problem...
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] carlosmozas:
Have you read any of the threads about flashing????; you have to HardSpl first your device before anything else, then the CID Unlock and then you can flash any ROM; (I recomend HardSpl 1.22)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] marciton:
I've the same issue ...

I've "hardspl" my device before ... but now no access at all to the device

[Dash 3G, Snap General] erasmogjr:
Hi all I am new to windows mobile 6.1, well windows mobile period.I have a Macbook and do not have windows on a desktop available at all, which is really starting to bug me. I love this phone but have no real way of using it for what I would like, one of my biggest problems is that I cannot mount it as a USB drive on my mac and therefore have no way of transferring large files to my sdcard. I have tried bluetooth, but cant get it to work right and the only solutions I can find for mounting are $40+, money I really cant spare just to connect the phone to my computer. Any solutions or suggestions, thanks all in advance.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Greg530:
I am also a Mac user (most of the time). Here are some tips:

-I take photos directly to the storage card and just pop it out to transfer them to the Mac. When you plug the card into a regular USB card reader, it will mount.

This way you can also transfer large files back and forth.

Yes you have to take to back off, it's annoying I know.

-I have a corporate Exchange account so there is no need for me to sync locally. I never do. All my organizer data is synced over the air.

BUT if you need to sync it, there are a few choices:

-Buy "Missing Sync".

-Sync over the air to your Google account. Google now gives you OTA Activesync. There are also tools to sync your Mac into your Google account. Basically Google becomes your master DB.

-No experience with this, but I bet there are WiFi network sharing utilities. That could be another way.

-Bluetooth File Exchange is also available (though a bit slow).
[Dash 3G, Snap General] mikeeb:
Look at the Mark Space Missing Sync programme for mac, it will sync everything and allow you to mount the memory card if you wish.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] adisuneo:
there's also an apps called SyncMate for mac.,
[Dash 3G, Snap General] djh816:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] tstone78:
I just installed the new ROM from HTC (1.39.409.3) - but before installing, I made a full backup using Sprite Backup. After the ROM install, which went OK, I did a full restore from the backup - but now my Word and Excel seems to be sort of "lost" to the OS - I can't find the .exe files, and the icons on the Start Menu are inactive.

But - when I open a .doc or .xls document, the corresponding program works like a charm.

Any idea what went wrong, or how I can get them back to the start menu?

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gilliland12:
I don't know if this is kosher or not, so if it's not please let me know promptly.

I use the app "TimeTracker" all the time. Every single day at work. That thing keeps me from getting overtime (and therefore a write-up).

Only a couple of problems with it. Currently it only has the ability to set the week start date on Sunday or Monday. Mine starts Saturday. I know others have posted on the comments for it requesting other start days too.

Second problem is that if you are working past midnight, it keeps those hours on the previous day (i.e. you start work at 11pm on the 2nd and work until 7am on the 3rd. It says you worked 8 hours on the 2nd). This doesn't jive with the way my company keeps track of our time. We are auto clocked out at midnight and then clocked back in. Therefore all hours of a day belong to that physical day.

Unfortunately it appears the developer has abandoned this application. No updates since March and it doesn't look like we'll be hearing anything at all from him in the mean time.

Is it kosher to ask someone else to update this app? It's a free app if that has any thing to do with it. Or create one from the ground up that has this same basic premise?

I so greatly wish for certain features to be updated in this, that I would be more than willing to provide a donation to whomever is able to update this app (or create one from scratch that performs the same basic function).

I have a feeling that it's probably not kosher, but I'm not an expert on this and I really need those updates.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirectMatrix:
This might be a better received thread if it was posted in the applications forum.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gilliland12:
I tired it there with no results, so I deleted that thread and moved it here.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirectMatrix:
I'll take a look at the app later in the week and see if there is anything I can do to the source. It also appears that the dev is still keeping track of issues according to his google code page

http://code.google.com/p/android-timetracker/

Not sure if he "abandoned" it so much as just hasn't been able to push out an update as of late. Most dev have "real" jobs that they must tend to and develop in their "spare" time.

I was wondering if any other tmo touchpro 2 owners had slightly squeaky battery covers, more specifically, when pressure is applied to the upper right hand corner of the cover, there would be a creaky sound or on any other corner or place on the battery cover....i'm wondering if its just mine...

Squeeky Battery Cover

I have T-Mobile's HTC Touch Pro2. Can't hear any squeaks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] andsoitgoes:
I have the Telus TP2 and I get a squeak right near the volume buttons. I'm glad I'm not the only one, it's a PITA actually :)

Is it enough to swap my phone out, though? That's a good question...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tbito:
No problem with mine. But I did read somewhere about Tmo tp2 owners complaining of loose battery cover.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] clin0420:
I think I may go back to the TMO store I bought it from to see if there was anything they could do..hopefully there is cuz the creak is annoying..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] graphreak:
Mine does too. Its just some plasticy fit/finish intermittent sound- no big deal.

As long as there are no funny noises from the front of the phone, and the battery cover

doesn't fall off by itself, I wouldn't really be bothered about some squeaks. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MC16:
Mine squeaks when I press the front corner where the End call button is. But I started tilting the screen up and down, and now it doesn't squeak as much anymore
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tbito:
Yes, it does squeek whenever I press the end button. Will try the tilting if that fixes it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] the_sys0p:
Great info here...I also spent a lot of time solving this problem too, but I found one other thing with my T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 that's definitely important to note...

My phone definitely has this file. It also has the same file located at "\Windows\" with the same name as above, but also in: \Windows\27c65cbd_manila

After finally finding the registry key to disable IE from the internet tab, I methodically checked each of these files for which one my system was actually using...and it turned out to be the *_manila file.

Just to be thorough, I made sure to keep all copies on my phone identical, just to be safe, but this may be helpful if it still just doesn't work for some reason.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nuron:
Worked very good, thanks very much! Although, in this section: NavigateUrl="http://m.web2go.com"

UrlText="web2go"

I put Google for the UrlText and it didn't show up, oh well, I don't mind it too much.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] btong1978:
Yeah that's strange.

I was able to put Launch Browser in the URL Text, and it worked....

As long as it is still launching google, that is all that matters right ? :D hehehe

Try a soft reset.... that may work. Or, go to another tab and then return to the Internet tab to get it refreshed from the XML that you had modified.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Epiktetus:
I put Google in mine and it worked like a charm. No reset required. I used Notepad on the PC side to do it.

If anyone is finding they can't see the file from Windows, go to your Folder Options and uncheck "Hide protected os files"

Thanks btong1978, this post was really helpful. I banged my head on this for days. It's crazy that T-mobile would believe that everyone would want to go to CNN and ESPN. No offense to fans of these sites, but I have better things to do with my mobile browser, like movie times and wikipedia. :)

Another tip for people using these instructions. Change

Width="480"

Height="215"

to

Width="240"

Height="107"

or even smaller to get more bookmarks on your screen. With Height="60" I was able to get 5 bookmarks to show beneath the logo without scrolling.

Also, the <IncludeUserFavorites>True</IncludeUserFavorites> works for IE as well, so change-away.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Epiktetus:
Oops, while the bookmarks will be launched in IE, they are actually managed in Opera. No biggie, at least I don't have to edit the XML file again. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] PRTEQ:
WOW Thank you very much!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] btong1978:
THanks for the compliment on your other post ! I was just as much frustrated on how to change the internet tabs. Good thing i was running high on energy drinks that night. LMAO.

the previous quote may be due to the reg edit that i posted earlier. I haven't tried this yet, but if you switched the values in these .....

change value in DefaultBrowserIsIE from "0" to "1"

change value in Internet.SetOperaForeground from "1" to "0"

It might end up taking the IE bookmarks instead. I don't know tho.

I also had a problem of the bookmarks launching in IE instead of Opera, but when i removed the line

<BrowserExe>\Windows\iexplore.exe</BrowserExe>

It will launch the bookmarks on the tab in opera.

I also found another trick that if you make this line instead....

<BrowserExe>\Windows\OperaL.exe</BrowserExe> , it will launch the bookmarks in Opera if you didn't edit the registry just yet. However i can't verify this, since i made so many changes in the registry that i couldn't keep up with what changes i made.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] elazullizard:
I'm just saying that if the Telus version doesn't have IE as default, then there really shouldn't be any problem. But as the_sys0p said, it's really the manila file that determines all the defaults.

Now is there a way to make Skyfire the default browser in the Internet tab? I'm starting to like it more than Opera.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] qazzy2004:
Great Post!!

I used the info from MattandTracy to do a lot of tweaking, but the part I couldn't find out was how to change the Internet default browser.

I edited the .xml page to tell it to look for Skyfire, instead of IE (or Opera) and I set Skyfire as the default browser when it asked me to. I then customized the Internet Page (It's now the "InterWeb" page) and I customized the push pages and added one of my own. It still kept bringing up IE.

Thankfully, you identified where in the registry to go and stop this! Now, it brings up Skyfire, and I can go to whatever page I want to.

I also edited the other push pages using the .xml page, so that they go to the sites' actual mobile page, with no reference to T Mobile. Really speeds things up!

Thanks so much. You really helped me out.
