Moto S9-HD

Ok, I bought a Moto S9-HD (£10 on eBay).

WOW! I had been using HFP on my blade (obviously for navigation, not music!! I had to use wired for music.)

But this A2DP is great.

I can now cut my lawn without precarious wires dangling! (as long as I do it within 6 hours..!)

The S9 has great volume - for once I can switch it up 'too' loud; with my blade and jabra BT2020 (<- very disappointing) I always had them on 'full blast' and then had to switch the Uni up.

The S9 is two sided - it can do phone calls and it can also play music (and 3rd dimension can also remote control the music).

I expect I'm only ranting on what A2DP can do, rather than the S9... and am sure the DS970 and Voyager 855 has the same properties. [NB, a difference between the S9 and 855 is how they sit in your ears... unsure about DS970 (orb?)].

Ok, bottom line. If you have an HTC Uni, get an A2DP headset.

No-one knows what's hidden in your pocket as you can totally control it from your headset (AVRCP). I can skip tracks, go back, pause, change volume and also answer calls (HSP) :cool:

And then of course you can totally blow people away by taking you Uni out your pocket and letting them know what it can do :D. Doesn't matter it's big, as long as you can carry it... and us blokes (hrmm, and capable ladies, excuse me enigma1nz :o) are able to put it in a pocket (hrmm, handbag) etc. [nb, not to tell a funny story, but I have found that handbags/ ladies/ men/ pockets are all interchangeable these days.. yes, men have handbags!.. but I digress and wish to stop digging this bit hole I've found myself in :(]

I'm unsure under UK law if I can use my S9 in my car (just for phone / navi), even though it's better than my other BT earpieces... anyone know? :confused: (Because under UK law you're not allowed to obscure your hearing by wearing headphones whilst driving... yet you are advised to use a handsfree kit otherwise you will be prosecuted)

Thanks kareeem & orb3000.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] orb3000:
DS970 are quite confortable and very very light.
[General Questions and Answers] tcSPVm3100:
For years I've been with Orange and I last got a tytn1 recently replaced with a tytn2 because of repeated problems with the tytn1. last renewal I "upgraded to a n6301 for my wife to keep my contract price down. I am a band5 user and am on a Dolphin 40 websave. I have:

Dolphin 40 £30

websave eve n WE internet

500 mb +£5 peak use internet

100 mins loyalty reward (that dont include voicemail call... weird that one...) I

10.00 loyalty reward -£10

Orange Care +£6

Thing is I know I can do better ESPECIALLY as I havent upgraded for years and that a friend from PAYG got the same deal getting a contract AND a n95 which, at the time was new.

I need 400 xnet + unlimitted landline call and 250 texts or so and internet as I currently only have access through my phone.

The big one though is I want to actually UPGRADE and get a well deserved touch pro2 as it has the keyboard and I dont think the ACER is a great idea)

how do I get it? searching the internet comes up with a few places that suposedly do the touch pro2 on orange but I've not heard anything of these companies and am worried leaving orange direct. Can anyone advise me where to go for the best deal and to get this TP2? Otherwise it'l be cheap phone upgrade and max deal for minimum £PM so I could get the phone myself.

Lastly am I foolish sticking with Orange thinking my loyalty count for something?

I'd really apreciate any advice. I'm due to upgrade now
[General Questions and Answers] badasschris:
orange direct dont do the tp2 so you wil have to go through another company anyway, I would first phone up orange and ask if there is a way to use another company to upgrade through without having to leave and come back to them. As for staying with a company i dunno really I don't I switch the second I see a better deal, saying that my gf has been with o2 for years and she gets the most amazing deals every year I think she has 400mins unlimited texts unlim internet for £15/pm and she got a free e71. I on the other hand brought my touch hd sim free £500 and got a sim only deal from tmobile 600mins/unlimited texts/internet£20pm

also don't limit your choice to one phone until you have seen what deals you can get for example orange do the tg01 (no keyboard) they may give that to you for a really good price then you could sell it and buy whatever phone you wanted on ebay maybe, the n900 from nokia looks amazing although not wm (until wm7 I think thats a good thing- apart from no tomtom)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptashek:
There are a few people on the web reporting their HTC Hero is running a 2.73.728.5 ROM. I wonder if anyone here has seen this in the wild and could report whether this is a provider customized 2.73.405.5 or yet another new build? :)

And, with the release of Donut, I hope we have another update coming this side of Xmas!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B4DASS:
Whatever that Hero update contains, it'd better sort out Bluetoothing. When I say Bluetooth I mean by way of file sharing with other phones not just with a headset.

Anyone get an answer from HTC about sorting this Bluetooth filesharing issue out? I've tried tweeting HTC, but get no reply.

P.S. the market apps don't work, even with root access. Sending AND receiving. Come on HTC sort this out, it would make the Hero a killer phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wouwout:
I honestly don't see how BT filesharing can be a big issue. Maybe a nice feature. I doubt it's on anyone's 'urgent list' at HTC or Google.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdosti:
Airtel (India) comes with a factory default of 2.73.720.5.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graculusthegreenbird:
Well, it really should be considering that any old phone can do it these days, yet top of the range smartphones like the Hero can't do it? Ridiculous.

Maybe not an important thing in the US, but it is widely used globally. Research by Microsoft and MTV shows 75% of European 16-24 yr olds) 'Bluetooth stuff' to their friends. It's huge in Asia also.

You can do it on most HTC WinMo phones. I am frankly embarrassed when a friends asks me to bluetooth them a song or photo and I have to admit I can't.

I can see why Apple don't want to do it on the iphone, as they dont like the idea of moving music from one phone to another, but Android has no such ideological reasons for doing it, just a massive oversight.

Check out: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1725

Plenty of people there who want it.

IN fact its the second most requested item: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/list

I have that exact ROM build. I just received my HTC Hero and I love it. I could not tell you the difference in builds, but the HTC website states im not eligible for their latest ROM upgrade to 405.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Rice8Daddy:
I have been having trouble with the alarm clock on my D2, and since Uni is about to start and I don't have a standalone alarm clock, it is vital that it functions normally.

Basically, sometimes the alarm just won't go off at all, I had set an alarm clock during my holiday to wake me up so I don't spend the (whole) day sleeping, but at times it failed to ring.

Does anybody else have this problem or is it just me?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Svennebannan:
if you use igo8 you could have this problem..

Timezone Bug Warning

A major problem with iGO 8 out of the box is the automatic time-zone option. I found that after running iGO 8 my time would change by an hour as well as my timezone being changed. Initially I just corrected these and carried on as normal – but this is where the problems began. You see, Windows Mobile has this 'thing' where if an alarm is turned off after the timezone is changed it still remembers it. You end up with phantom alarms going off even when they are turned off in the alarms setting – and because of the change of timezone they are an hour earlier… I had 12 alarms going off at 5.30am at one point! Calendar alarms are also messed up in this process – I had reminders for appointments an hour after they should have been. The alarm problem was such an issue that I actually did 2 hard resets within a week just to stop them, but as soon as iGO 8 ran again the problem returned. After a considerable number of missed appointments and early mornings I found a way to fix the alarms issue, around the time that Nav N Go announced a 'fix' for the problem.

The problem is caused by entries in the Notification Queue in Windows Mobile not being deleted after they have run. There were two free tools that I used to clear all these old and duplicate entries: pmClean and SKTools Lite. pmClean is a basic tool for clearing out temporary files etc whereas SKTools Lite is more advanced and does a lot more – to view the entries in the notification queue (and subsequently delete the offending ones) go to View / Maintenance / Notifications Queue and remove offending entries under CALENDAR.EXE (for appointments) and Windows\clock.exe (for alarms).

To stop iGO 8 from changing the timezone like it does then you need to follow the instructions here. [make sure you edit the sys.txt in Program Files because if you edit the one on the memory card (like I did initially) then it will not work without a reinstall!]

useless alarm

i had the same issue, however since i upgraded the software to the official latest version off htc website, it sorted it out, so i think it maybe a glitch in the software
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Rice8Daddy:
I don't think the problem is with the changing timezone, it's just that my alarm won't go off at all...

I am not aware that there are newer updates for the TD2 on the HTC website, I though they were just changes for the ROM, is it on the normal HTC update site?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] popkid:
This is definitely related to the notifications queue, I had this issue (basically my alarm would pretty much never go off in the morning) I installed SK tools and set it to clean up the notifications queue in the night

see this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4391994

so that was a month ago, not one alarm failure since

Oh and I use G-Alarm as my alarm clock, check it out, gives many more features than the stock windows alarm

P.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Superman_1122:
But did you still have problems using G-Alarm not going off?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] gingercat:
I believe G-Alarm itself has a workaround built in for the notifications queue bug.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] popkid:
G-Alarm does in theory have a workaround built in for the notifications queue bug (it turns on at midnight to run a clean) but it wasn't working for me, it was no better than the standard alarm for reliability until SK tools was set up to do its thing. I have now actually turned off the G-Alarm notifications queue fix in the registry as I found the turning on at midnight annoying! And haven't had one alarm failure since so figure it wasn't doing anything extra...

Is there available or could someone make a tab to TF3D :D

Im thinking of something like "happenings" etc. It would be a simple tab that has following things:

- Tasklist

- Upcoming calendar events

- Upcoming birthdays and anniversaries

Settings would be atlest:

- you could define that how far would the event list search for events (for example 15 days ahead)

- same than previous for b-days and anniversaries

- you could define font sizes for each "box"

- you could drag the separator lines up or down and it would save its position (so that you could see for example 5 row tasks, 8 row events and 2 rows b-days and anni's).

- you could define that would it roll, bounce or multi-line texts

These settings would be just for eye candy etc.:

- you could add different backgrounds and separators

Im not a developer so I can't do it but this would be nice to have
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] formthingy:
A call history tab and a program tab would be good too
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] paokaras45:
You can use Manila Today Plugin to show classic today page on a tab you want (stocks or wather) and load any today plugin you want to display anything. There are thusants of them on the net.

As for the program tab, you canenable it with some registry hacking (it is just hidden for some reason).

Both can be found in xda forum. Just search them! :D

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] seeraeuber:

Would love that too !!!!!!!!

btw: how are your features/settings in S2U2 for instance?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] vollnull:
I use the combination of secondToday and todayAgenda as a workaround.

Both freeware.

second today gives you a second today screen :)

It comes with an settings utility, where you can add today plugins, that you want to appear on the second today screen. You can also override soft buttons in TFlo3D and Second Today as well.

today agenda is a plugin for the today screen (so it can be activated on the second today screen) that shows tasks, appointments, birthdays of your contacts in the address book and can be customized in any thinkable way. Colours, fonts, text size, days to be shown ....

Works perfect for me and I assume for any other ROM.

I have set "agenda" to the left soft key (manila home tab). If I hit it, I get my second today screen with the agenda for the next 7 days. There I set the left soft key to "TFlo3D" and it brings me back to manila.

Hope it helps you.

Hi guys,

I decided to open a blog which explains how to cook roms for the i780. There are very few chefs, and cooking is a really hard science to learn without help! So, I decided that I take the time and write posts so that everyone could learn the process in a methodical manner and cook roms in the future!

I'd slowly write posts explaining each step of the process in detail, so that we can have more people learning how to cook and make the i780 community more happening ;)

Non-HTC devices do have a very small fan base unfortunately....and ironically, HTC makes the crappiest devices imo (highly crash prone, buggy, lousy drivers, useless qualcomm processor)! :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dreamtheater39:
To remove a package, you can get rid of the corresponding folders in your SYS folder. But its not recommended that you knock off office/ie as they might be referenced within other apps. You can always take it off, build a rom and see if everything works fine ;)

For example, to remove IE, just delete your Browsing, Browsing_DPI_xx and Browsing_Lang_XXXX, BROWSINGCORE, browsingie, browsingie_LANG_XXXX folders. That should get rid of IE for you! Then you need to recreate your bin!
