I installed some .cab files for Voip... but now my gps is broken TomTom is unable to find my internal GPS... and when i do a hard reset it works again. but when i install that VOIP again the GPS is again gone? maybe i used an wrong version that is only for HTC or something? is there a .cab for the Xperia so i can use VOIP and the internal speaker... and with working GPS ?

I hope someone can help me.

Hi there,

Have you tried to enable the G3 connection settings?? It says you have to delete two registry entries. I did that and also lost the use of my internal GPS. I will try to recreate it tomorrow (was smart enough to write down what was inside the registry entries) and see if that helps....

Well, i tried allot... im now currently using SJphone... but it takes allot of cpu/mem? my phone is really slow when its turned on. would be nice if u got an solution...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyellow:
i don't own an xperia anymore, but once again, i never had any problems using voip and gps. There might be a conflict if you happen to use some sort of tweak program like advanced config or xperia tweak. i am not sure about it, since i don't use any tweaking programs as the roms i use/choose are already optimized for daily use.

I am still using agephone mobile and i'm still happy i found the program. i must have save already about hundred euro's of phone costs.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreasheijdendael:
Would a hard reset be the way to go in getting GPS to work again? Or do you think there is some other option to enable it again. Can't be physically broken afterall.

Or some kind of fix??

Hi there,

Well, I restored the original registry keys but that didn't budge )-: My GPS is still as dead as a doornail. I honestly believe that a hard reset is the only way to go from there. Might be a good idea anyway because the TouchFlow 3d that I installed didn't work properly anyway. Unfortunately.

I've got a dutch rom too btw: KPN Mobile.

Still, if anybody knows a way to re-enable the internal GPS without the hard reset I'd be very happy.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hyellow:
did you happen to activate agps? well, you should leave it disabled as i can not see the advantage of it since quickgps already provides you of a quick fix.

i don't know either what gps had to do with voip, causing the problems you have now.

I'd suggest to do a hard reset and do not install any optimizing tools, just the voip and you nav app and see how it works.

[P3400 ROM Development] deathgame:
for removing PIE5-(WM6.1)-

BROWSING

Browsing_DPI_96

BROWSINGCORE

for removing PIE6-(WM6.5)-

BROWSING

Browsing_DPI_96

Browsing_Lang_0409

BROWSINGCORE

browsingie

browsingie_LANG_0409

----------------------------------

i think we cant remove PIE from ROM because it supports some other applications(not confirmed ask for sumit).

I am waiting for correct version of WM6.5 to continue my work on GENERO..and iam quite confirm that next versions of 23049 will be nice!
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Yes the First 4 browsing* folders support SMS and EMail functionality so it will break if you remove those 4 packages. Browsingie and Browsingie_lang_0409 can be removed though. In WM 6.1 this would cause Internet Explorer 6 to behave like 5.5. It wont render HTML pages good, it will work only for WAP sites. In WM 6.5, it would also cause the Widgets platform to stop working since it depends on the MSHTML.dll and other files inside it.

Ya, i too have a bit good expectations from 230xx series, the next build should be good, however that would only happen if they didn't made any changes to the feature list. Introducing new features causes more bugs. And looking at the COM4 tree (234xx), i think the new Contacts application that appeared in 23412 build may also come in any of the next build of 230xx :o Lets see! :)

Just got my Airtel Carrier - HTC Hero (unlocked) 2.73.720.5

Im surprised that everyone besides India have a 2.73.4xx firmware. Is it just me or did India get a smaller updated edition (revision) compared to the rest of the world, or is this just Airtel's doing of a little extra in the firmware/rom.

After running from WM to the iPhone, Ive finally made peace (hopefully) with the HTC Hero (Android). Being an avid Star Trek Fan...all I can say is I've got "Data" - what about you all :)

I did my little share of forum searching, but I couldnt find a single post regarding the Airtel HTC Hero (the last HTC Magic was locked with that stupid and insanely painful SPL), so my question begins with

1) Is the Airtel HTC Hero using another crazy SPL?

2) If so, what guide should I follow for unlocking (ability to ROM upgrade/change)

3) I can confirm that we are NOT locked to SIMCARDS - I can use my Idea Cellular Simcard just fine.

Added questions include - are there "Kitchens" like we used to have for Windows Mobile ?

Hope someone can help me out here - I'd love to be part of the ol' Cooking & Chef team :)

Guys,

I am planning to buy Hero through Airtel and have a few questions,

1. Is the airtel version unlocked ?

2. Should I buy from Airtel or open market ?

3. Any reasons not to buy it ? Performance ? sluggishness ?

and lastly, is it simple to update the firmware, I am very keen on the new Android 2.0 update for the new google GPS app.

thanks in advance,

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Barguast:
Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Can I download songs to my phone?

A. No. This is not something Grooveshark allows you to do, and it won't be something Groovefish will allow you to do. It would constitute piracy after all.

Q. How can I help?

A. At the moment, I want a good solid base on which to build up the rest of the features. If you encounter a problem whilst using Groovefish, please post the details - including how to reproduce it if possible - in this topic. If the problem is non-fatal (i.e. the application doesn't crash) then please check the Debug Log (Options > View Debug Log) and post any relevant information from there.

You can also help by using the Grooveshark service. I'm not sure how they will react to this app, but I'd like to think they can coexist symbiotically since I'm promoting their service. You can support the host of the download by visiting the 1800PocketPC.com website who are kindly hosting and promoting the app for me.

Finally, of course you can DONATE to help encourage further development, more features, etc. :)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Barguast:
The first release has been uploaded to the second post! I've tested this on my Xperia and it seems to be relatively stable. That said, I've not done much testing!

The user interface is admitted not very good. I've not spent much time on it, I was more focused on getting a moderately stable first release out there to see how it runs on different devices and at different resolutions.

Next up, I'm going to start designing the 'proper' interface and start adding some basic features that are missing. I have big plans for this!

Hope you like! All feedback welcome. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pyrofool:
Seems stable enough for me at the moment. I'm testing on a Ipaq hx2795 qvga. I did have it crash when it tried to get the album art. Keep up the good work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Barguast:
Actually, as it turns out the 'rare' crash would -always- happen when there was no artwork for a song. This was due to me writing a clever bit of code with loaded the default artwork from the installation directory rather than downloading it. As it turns out, this clever bit of code didn't work since it used an unsupported .NET method. Opps! :o

I've taken this out for now, so it should work for all songs apart from the odd network-related crash! See post 2 for an updated CAB. :)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Barguast:
I'd like to hear some more feedback from others if possible! Any crashes, freezes, etc. I seem to be using a pretty unstable 6.5 ROM at the moment so I don't know whether to attribute the (few) UI freezes to the ROM or to my application. I suspect the former, but it'd be nice to get some form of confirmation.

'Version 1' is coming along nicely by the way - I've write ALL of the UI from scratch and I'm about to rewrite the comms with more speed and greater stability in mind. I'll try to get another release out this week - and it should prove to be a huge improvement...

Fingers crossed! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aussiebum:
hehe, no one complaining = app is working fine, right? :p

Anyways here's my feedback - tested on Touch HD with PDAViet's V63 WM6.5 build 23053.

Issues/bugs

* Playback stops (eventually) when screen is turned off, and resumes only when screen is on again. Already checked that the I wasn't in suspend mode, and used Power Options to perform the screen off. Doesn't matter if using headphones or external speaker, same results.

Suggestions

* Ability to add songs to a playlist, and play only songs in the playlist (like the main Grooveshark website)

Other than that, everything works as expected (with one song anyways :p) Will test more....

Look forward to V1!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jhw549:
I experienced the same issue, but wrote it off as incorrect settings on s2u2, I just did a hard reset and am still fixing up some things...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aussiebum:
Just to clarify, the issue occurs *after* I switched off S2U2 completely before using Groovefish, because I know the "Don't Suspend Power" setting is Off by default and even when switch On, still seems to stop HSDPA connections sometimes.

Ok, did a little more testing, found some more issues:

* After pressing play in a song, pressing the back button seems to wipe the search results list

* Buffering seems to fail for certain songs, eg. "Bee Gees" => Staying Alive - I get a .NET CF error, but can't see specific details because I don't have the mesages module installed.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] skyler17:
Wow, I'm really excited. Now we have two guys that are both working on a great Grooveshark client. Wonderful.

Downloading now, if I find something useful to tell you about your current version, I will give you feedback asap.

PS

I think that the name of your app is brilliant!

EDIT: Ok so here are my thoughts....

One Major gripe that I have is that whenever the backlight turns off, so does the music. The same thing happens with Gooveshark Mobile.

other things:

1. when you search and then go back, it does not show the previous search results. I'm sure you were already planning to address this in the near future though.

2. There is nothing wrong with the user interface, it works great. Search is front and center.

But a reccomendation for the future that I have is to incorporate a carousel (kinda like TF3D) so that there are the following tabs: "Search" "My Music" "Recent" "Popular" "Favorites" and "People". Since those are the main menu items on listen.gooveshark.com, those screens would make most sense.

3. Obviously it would be amazing to be able to log into your account through the application. I'm sure this is already coming in the future too.

Lastly, if anyone is having problems with the application not being able to play a stream, it is Gooveshark.com's fault right now and not Sharkfish's
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GuestK00306:
^^ My only gripe right now.

Also, when searching for music we should be presented with Artist/Title alone. No need to do more than Grooveshark does :) Then only present the rest of the information (Album/Art/Length/Genre) when the music is playing. I'm not going to decide what to listen to based on song length ;)

With a UI as finger-friendly and attractive as nilezon's this could be fantastic!

P.S. Tested & working on Asus P565 VGA 480x640 over HSDPA :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Barguast:
Yay! Comments! :p

A few responses;

I'm not sure if it's possible to keep the music playing after the screen has turned off - if there is some magical way of doing so, I'd love to know - it's certainly not something I'm doing intentionally! I can just stop the screen from turning itself off, so there is a potential fix there - just not an ideal one.

The song info page (with the genre, duration, artwork, etc) will be an optional step in-between the search results and the player. My aim is to have all major functions of the application to be one (or, at the most two) taps away (probably using something similar to skyler17's carousel idea).

The search result page will eventually show song and artist name - I went with the plain ol' ListView control for the search result just to have something done quickly, and with kinetic scrolling.

As for the stream crashing the application - the only situation I've had this is where the stream is actually missing. You can test this by doing the same search on Grooveshark and seeing if the error message pops up. I haven't yet accounted for missing streams so if it's missing - it'll crash!

Oh, and... I made an application icon this morning! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] superkevx:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Barguast:
It's good to hear there is still some interest... I'm still putting a lot of hours into this project, so it's nice to hear there is still some enthusiasm for it!

There should be another release some time this week, hopefully. I'll post some screenshots if I get a chance - the UI is looking very pretty now! :p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GuestK00306:
Oh yeah! Can't wait :)

The screen switching off/audio problem is by-design in WinMo. The only player to actually get around it is WMP and I have no idea how. Nitrogen keeps the screen on "dimmed" mode while the music is playing to get around it.

The only problems I've encountered in this release is the random Exceptions being thrown when trying to play certain tracks. Doesn't always happen though & usually closing/opening the app solves it.
