LOL, that link redirects us to this topic...

That said, I also have some minor problems with the new opera mini 5 beta. It look way more slick then the standard version of Opera, but there are a few things:

1. Just like Lyian stated, I as well hate the opera interface keyboard popping up and would really like to turn off this feature.

2. When I slide out my keyboard, the java applet notices this action and tells me to restart opera mini 5 :S (using JBlend, standard application deliverd on my tp2)

3. I would really like to have the possibility to make a shortcut to opera mini beta 5 in the start menu.

4. Everytime I restart the mini-browser, it asks me if it may connect to the network. I would really like to have the mini-browser never ask me this again.

Now I do remember that there were some solutions to my little problems mentioned above. With the old opera mini there were some tweaks that offered an solution to point 3 and 4, but I can't find them anywere. Does anybody know if they work as well for mini 5, and where I can find them? Does anybody have an solution to the other problems?

Thanks in advance,

There are multiple thread about Opera Mini 5 now so there is no stopping now anyway..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mastermarv:
use jbed instead of JBlend. JBlend can not handle screen rotation at all (no matter whether the java application can or not).

use jbed and make a link in the startmenu folder to the jbed executable with the parameter "-run s0_".

download the signed version of opera mobile

When I use the keyboard for typing an URL it results in a URL like xda-dddddevelopersssss.com or xdaaaaa-devvvvvelopers.commmm. I don't have any problems with the keyboard in other programs.

I just started playing with Mini 5, and it's freaking awesome with esmertec jbed. It's got the speed of Opera Mini, but it has some degree of flicking and it can copy/paste text! Mini 4.2 allowed you to copy and paste text when you switched to text entry mode, but you had to change the keyboard to the old full keyboard to utilize CTRL C and CTRL V. I can now highlight text on pages. Plus tabbed browsing! Remarkable.

I looked for a signed version of 5, but I couldn't find it (I was able to install the signed version for 4.2). Is there a trick I'm not aware of?

Mini 5 works for some of the forums I visit. I was unable to post in the Yuku forums with 4.2, and it would format oddly unless I was in mobile view. Screen transitions are a lot snappier.

I've never had any luck with screen orientation transitions with Opera Mini, so it's not a big deal for me. I'm used to using it exclusively in portrait mode anyway.

I think I've found myself a new browser. Anyone have any tips or tricks to share?

ETA: I'd love to get the flicking speed higher.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] TEE82:
Does anyone know how to get the clock/time to show on the top border/frame? It's on Opera Mini 4.2 and it'd be cool to have it on this browser also. Thanks in advance !

i bought a blueangel off ebay, its in rough shape but works. ive gotten wm2003,wm5,wm6 and some variant of linux, i forget which ver running on it. the main problem i have is the gsm reception is horrible. if i get any reception, which is rare, its 2bars and drops off when i attempt to make a call. it also freezes all phone functions. asin entire phone app frozen, phone settings, green/red call buttons dont respond.

now, id just assume its normal. but when its powered by the external charger, it doesnt drop out nearly as bad.

anyone have any opinions?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] cerjam:
hmm.

i just called my 2nd phone from the ba on external power, called and connection worked fine. i unplugged it mid-call?

...

pzzzt sound went dead. lost radio signal.

anyone got any IDEAS as to why this is happening.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] cmstackar:
What radio are you using? I had reception problems before I updated, and new I have good reception.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] cerjam:
that was my first thought. i upgraded from 1.6 to 1.15 to 1.14 to 13 to 12 then back to 15.

none of them helped the problem. it has to be something to do with power, i've looked on the motherboard and i dont see anything that looked out of place.

perhaps the battery isnt putting out enough juice? it does appear to drain fast.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] cmstackar:
Maybe. My battery would just die at about 50% Maybe a new one would help, with a new one I didn't notice any better signal (as I had no problems) but now it can make it for a while before shutting off.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] rolandroland:
Anyone know when they are coming to stores? :confused: Long story short I need to buy mine from a store and wanted to know. I don't want to wait any more! :eek:

Thanks!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] guppystank:
the ones near me (California) were getting there TP2 shipped to them on Wed. (today)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] rolandroland:
in CT

Thanks, I'll chall my local store later today then.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cartis:
Have the store order you one. You don't have to wait for them to get a shipment.

You have more patience than me. I had mine overnighted and got it at 8:30am the day after it came out. And THAT was too long to wait!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hybridfury:
The manager at the Verizon store in my town said they weren't getting any and the only way to get it was special order or online order.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mt2020:
Wanna bet they start stocking them after Oct 3rd???? That's when the $100 rebate ends, and the price goes up to $299.

My contract ended and Oct 2nd I'm ordering one so I can be as close to the 6.5 Rom update as I can, and that will give me 30 dys to review new phones. Kind of bummed I won't get to consider Diamond 2 (pocketnow.com just posted won't come to any other US vendor other than AT&T - I'm sticking with Verizon) so it looks like it's TP2 or Omni 2 for me.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] RonDutt:
Diamond 2 is coming out on Verizon, it's known as the Whitestone. http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/verizons-htc-whitestone-leaks-out-along-with-the-htc-mega-and/
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] rolandroland:
I don't mean to be argumentative, but those websites are wrong more than they are right, especially with release dates. Hopefully it is coming next month though as that would be within my 30 days and I could see which one I like better.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] RonDutt:
The release dates for all Verizon phones leaked out, up to 1st Q of 2010. No Whitestone/other devices from HTC listed.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] .mak:
My local Verizon (corporate) Store is large in comparison to most in the state, and they claim that they don't stock HTC devices, except the Ozone.. in fact, when I got my TP2 last Friday I went to the store looking for a universal pouch and three techs. were amazed to see the TP2 in person lol. I guess they haven't trained on the TP2 yet here.

Hopefully they stock it in the near future, I like getting my cases from that store because of the warranty.

-mak
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] RonDutt:
Now that you mention it, you're right! I haven't seen a TP1 at the Verizon kiost or the store ever since its release. Havn't see ANY HTC devices for that matter...weird.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hybridfury:
Lol, went to my local Verizon store earlier today and the same thing happened. I walked in and asked if they had any accessories for my phone as i showed it to him. He immediately yanked it out of my hand and then asked, "Can I see that for a minute" as he ran, literally, and showed it to every other Verizon employee in the store including his manager. There were like 6 or 7 other people in the store that all noticed and then they all started asking me and the Verizon employee's about the phone, I felt pretty special :P They told me at the store they weren't gonna get any in, only internet orders or special order.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] quid246:
Is anybody in Cali and able to confirm whether stores got any?

Headed that way for the weekend, so would like to grab one in person.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] boca300:
Seems we are all getting the same reaction from the Verizon employees when we walk into the store. Was also looking for a universal case to tide me over. It was as if time stood still - little work was done for anyone else in the store for the next 5-10 minutes.

Other news: Have to replace mine due to the screen being scratched out of the box. Corp rep said they were out of stock for a replacement! Will know more tomorrow.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] RaggedOne:
I have called around in my area (Phoenix) and have found some stores have them, some don't. None have them on display and none have accessories.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mt2020:
Still not in our Verizon or Sprints. Looked up on T-Mobile website for a corporate owned location (not reseller) and went on down. They have working TP2s. The resellers have dummy versions for size and weight comparisons.

The T-Mobile version battery door did have a memory card door (though hard to open) and I thought I saw a reset button! Couldn't swear to it. I may look into it and see if one of their backs fit the Verizon and see if they can be bought reasonably.

I won't get my TP2 for another week though. Kind of nice watching the forum and letting others who have time get all the bugs out. I wonder if all the clean ups and hacks will start all over again for WinMo 6.5. I wish they'd start new forums for TP2 GSM/CDMA version 6.1, 6.5, and custom cooked ROMs! very dificult to follow all the versions in one thread when they go 24 pages.

Update: well best plans of mice and men... PocketNow posted "OUT OF STOCK" for TP2 at Verizon. Sure enough went on line and entered an upgrade order and would not let me submit order during rebate period as it was "out of stock." Couldn't even put in basket to be fullfilled when arrives. Called Verizon, switched me around to different sales regions and what did I find? IN STOCK in California! Mine is now on the way to FL. Oh well, I get a great phone aweek early than expected.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] RonDutt:
Oh they BETTER NOT BE out of stock this Saturday! O_O I don't care if they have to steal it from a third world country, I WANT ONE! :'(
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] papeluv:
I too have been going through the same ordeal. I added a line to my wifes plan. From being told by many verizon reps that the TP2 will not be avaliable untill early next year I settled on the TP1. That was on 9/10/09, well, lo and behold, the TP2 hit Net sales on the 11th. So i went back to the store on the 20th in the hopes of getting a TP2 of my own. No dice. They couldnt even order me one from any of the options that they had. So, we went ahead and returned the TP1 and reactivated my wifes old lg env in the meantime so i could go home and place the net order. Well, all went fine and dandy and I was even able to order the unit for $149.99 w/no mail in rebates. But, two hours later i received a wonderful cancellation email from verizon due to lack of inventory. Slightly irritating, but understandable. Now, going on 4 days later, everything has reset on the account except for my ability to order via the website. After spending hours on the phone with just about every dept in verizon and being told that the phone is going to cost me anywhere from $250+ and still have to pay the restocking fee from returning the TP1 still no luck. I finally did talk with a phone sales rep that was the most helpful of anyone i have spoken with to date. He promised that as soon as he gets any word about the availability of the TP2 he will personally call me and have the order set to go asap. The only issue he said i might have is for some reason the original order that was canceled is not fully showing up in his system, but there is a reference to it in the account. According to him, when it becomes available again he will call me and if it still doesn't show the canceled order that i will be able to send him the email and they will fully honor it. We will see...

Sorry for the long rant, just had to get it off my chest. Its been a fairly irritating past week of dealing with VZW trying to get them to get their stuff straight.

Hopefully i will have a new TP2 in the next handful of days.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] kierandill:
I went into my store on the 19th and he said they don't expect to ever get them, only direct fulfillment. So I ordered it online when I got home and it arrived the 22nd.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ellomdian:
After 9 months of FRU'ing Touch Pro's, the guy at the Verizon store informed me that they finally had TP2's online as a possible Multi-FRU upgrade.

After more than a week of daily calls to Verizon and finally getting mine (after paying the 2 year contract price as a discount instead of receiving the multi FRU), I can say the following with relative certainty.

1. They don't anticipate displays in-store before the start of 2010. 2 local store managers claimed they have already requested them, and that Corporate was stalling the launch (much the same as the TP.)

2. If you order over the phone and complain enough about your existing phone, you can get it for the new every 2 price, pretty much regardless of your current status. Keep in mind, it will reset your next upgrade date.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] breissim:
Good experience

I actually had a good experience in my local VZW Experience store. Perhaps I was lucky, but I got the attention of the manager upon walking into the store. Told him I wanted the TP2 for my wife and explained that she would be switching from AT&T. Also told him I was upset that I still had 1.5yrs on my AT&T contract and couldn't switch to get the new phone. He quickly responded that he could order 2 of the phones for me and would take $100 off my phone and waive my $60 activation fee to get me to switch (the $160 credit would cover my termination cost on my AT&T contract). The phones arrived 2 days later, we took them into the store and they were activated with no trouble.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] BK111968:
I talked to a Verizon store manager here in Northern VA a little over a week ago and he mentioned that according to the district manager they may not release the device in-store.

The funny/sad thing is that I went into the same store yesterday during my lunch break and they had a touch pro 2 on display with a big promotional display touting VZ Navigator around it. There wasn't even a mention about what the device itself was.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] cccoltsicehockey:
So there is actually a store with Touch Pro 2 instock or just on display?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] BK111968:
dang it- double post, see below
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] BK111968:
I think they were only a using a Touch Pro 2 for the VZ Navigator display because of the bigger screen and higher resolution. It was an actual working model but not a single mention that it was a Touch Pro 2 or when it would be available.

It felt like they were trying to keep it hushed up so people wouldn't ask for a device they didn't have in-store stock.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] AstarteSV:
http://htcpedia.com/news/verizon-restock-htc-touch-pro2-supply.html

looks like Verizon didn't anticipate the demand for the device.... just happy I got mine early, was able to haggle $50 off the $149.00 price =). Anyway, looks like you just gotta wait a few more days if you haven't gotten yours already.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultma75:
Next Time ask question to Q&A section.

turn phone off and boot into recovery via home+red key

go to console and type in

# cd /system/sd

# rm -rf /system/sd/*

# reboot recovery

then type

mkpartfs primary ext2 xxxx xxxx

xxxx= your last numbers from rm 1 example 3453 3901

the size of your ext3 befor you rm 2.

after initializeing this type

quit(enter)

now type

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jugg2000:
Someone may have a better way, but this is pretty much straight forward info (From Recovery Console):

STEP 1: Hit "Enter"

STEP 2: type '# parted /dev/block/mmcblk0'

In parted:

STEP 3: type 'rm 2'

STEP 4: type 'mkpartfs primary ext2 xxxxx xxxxx' (your partion size range "xxxxx xxxxx")

In terminal:

STEP 5: type 'upgrade_fs'

STEP 6: type 'reboot recovery'

That'll create a completely new ext3 partition.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamPI:
bigslanki/jugg2000, you don't need to delete the old partition to go that method, just

parted dev/block/mmcblk0
mkfs 2 ext2
y

Actually I know that doesn't work because of a bug in parted, you have to do:

parted dev/block/mmcblk0
mkfs
y
2
ext2

but it's the same.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I hate to ask, but rather than create a new thread.... why would one format their Ext3 partition?

If you do format it, I suppose you could create Ext 4 at that point.... Any advantages of Ext3 vs. Ext4. I looked at Wiki but it confused the bejesus out of me.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
to remove all of the files off of it, like if you are going from a hero rom to an AOSP rom, also from what i have heard there are no huge differences in ext4 that would be of significant benefit for your phone or sdcard. i have had an ext3 and ext4 partition (went back to ext3 after formatting because i didn't feel like entering in the extra commands, and i have not noticed any difference in ext3 or ext4), but if you do want to try ext4 and already have ext3 do this in the recovery console

tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
e2fsck -fpDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

then you will have ext4, voila.

Hi all, I'm searching for a program I had on my Diamond when I was running windows mobile 6.1. It allows you to swipe your finger, from up to down or vice versa, on either side of the touchpad to launch an assigned program.

I have no idea what it's called and can not for some reason find any information about it at all. If someone out there knows what it is called (or better yet a link to it), I would be extremely grateful.

Thank you for your time and please don't tell me that I have been using this program in my imagination for the last six or so months. ;-)

[General Questions and Answers] grkn:
So, since all Esmertec versions seems to have a bug when I use address completion in Opera, making any keypress autorepeaaaaaaaaaaat until backspace is pressed, I'm wondering if there's another Jbed out there without this bug (on Samsung i780, WM 6.1).

I need to be able to make a shortcut for Opera, making it one click to run and I need to be able to not be nagged for internet access for each time I use it. Any alternatives?
[General Questions and Answers] mentalee:
I'm not sure about your particular Opera Mini Version, Phone & Esmertec. I've used both Esmertec and Opera Mini on my phone without that particular issue so I can't help on that matter, however as to the other questions:

1) Need to make a shortcut

2) Need not be nagged for permissions

1) To create a shortcut to ANY Java app, simply create a new "Some_App.lnk" (shortcut) file on your phone (You can use Total Commander to do this on your phone, or Notepad on a PC and transfer) then use the following syntax inside the file:

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

30#"\Windows\jbed.exe" -run s29_

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

where "s29_" represents the install number of the Java app

that you are making a shortcut too. In other words if Opera Mini is the 5th app installed (and there were no previous installs/deletes of java apps) then it might be "s4_" (since 0 is actually 1). You can change the number easily enough until you launch the right app. Or browse to \windows\appdb on your phone to see the different apps installed and their corresponding suite numbers.

2) On fixing the Java Permission security thing.. just google on "Fix Java Security Selector.utf" there was an app that I had downloaded awhile back that changes the permissions in the Selector.utf file so that they are all set at max perms allowed and gets rid of the nag. I have seen some posts where even this trick didn't work for some people, but it may be worth a try.
