If you are going to do anything to your Polaris, make sure that you find a hardware guide to wire the batteries properly or else you can end up burning the device.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] marko_serb:
Be careful guys! Those were not 1,5V cells, but 3,6V (Li-ion from a notebook) connected in paralel. When they're full the voltage is about 4.1 to 4.2V. Instead of Li-ion you can use 3 1.2 volt cells (Ni-MH) connected in series (to get 3.6V). Take 3 of these:

and you'll get 2700mAh battery for BA :)

Considering how much power new windows uses, this (or more) will be "a must" :(

Because of idea of using stripped laptop batteries!

They have 4.1V, as mentioned before. Way to go, man!

Mod for a purpose

Hi. I myself cant stop laughing too when I read this thread, but no disrespect to the person who did the mod. Later I realise that some parts of the Philippines has no landline only cell phone coverage. This mod probably came out of necessity as the saying goes (Necessity is the mother of all Invention) and people living in those remote area have little means of livelyhood so making the most out of something we (city dwelling people) take for granted. More power to the modder.

I have tried something like this with my HTC beetles(ipaq hw6515) but only with 2x2200mah cells, it worked about 10 days without charge :D but after 2-3 cycles I've encountered problems - auto turn-off when there's 40% left. :) thanks for the idea, I was thinking where to use 6x2200mah cells :D

P.S. checked in the airport - no one thought that it was a bomb... ;)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] :
I have replaced original BA battery with 5 lithium batteries (3.7V 2400mAh each) according to this thread.

I have connected them in parallel and joined with corresponding wires in battery cover. When I charge them with original BA charger they get to almost 4.2 volts. When BA turns off because of low battery they have 4.1 volts. So they last for 2-4 days of common use. But people in here are talking about two weeks or more.

I don't understand why BA uses only 0.1V if it has another 0.4V available to completely discharge battery.

What can be wrong? Where is the difference between my batteries and yours?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] marko_serb:
It's easy :) Your batteries are dead :) got them out of an old notebook? They got voltage when there is no load on them. But as soon as the phone draws some power - the voltage drops for a split second to below 4V or less.

Give us some more info, I'm probably wrong :D
[XPERIA X1 General] invincible00:
I've made an application that will replace the theme's background with a background of your choice.

The advantages of using my program:

- unlike on your device itself, you can zoom in and out of pictures and get just the part YOU want on your devices today screen.

- you get a seperate part of the picture for both portrait and landscape mode, not the same one like windows does (either cropped or tiled).

It's an application specifically designed for the XPERIA but it can be used with other devices with the same resolution (or if I make small modifications which consist in users being able to select the preferred resolution).

You can load a picture, modify it to your wishes and then either save it directly onto your device or make a backup which you can use for later on your desktop computer.

Update: You can now change the fontcolor of your todayscreen and start menu, as well as changing your devices base color.

For example the color for your menu's and background colors for standard windows applications like messaging, etc...

If there are things you dislike or would like to see changed; functionality you would like me to add, please tell me.

Note:

- All 3 files are needed to run the application.

Credits:

- creator of the TodayRefresh.exe (source code @ msdn)

- creators of the RAPI dll (http://rapi.codeplex.com/)

Edit: Them screenshotz

* Landscape mode

* Portrait mode
[XPERIA X1 General] darthmelk:
Does this work only for the Today screen? Or also in Manilla?
[XPERIA X1 General] MykeChester:
sceenshots pls...;)
[XPERIA X1 General] invincible00:
I have no experience with manilla, I don't even know what it is ^_^!

If manilla uses the files windows provides to use as a background, it will (like stwater_800_480), otherwise it won't. :)
[XPERIA X1 General] asayamalaka:
wow, glad to see a nifty little program like this. can't wait to try it out, thanks for the development!
[XPERIA X1 General] invincible00:
I've added some features which now makes it a basic theme editing program as well.

Also I have bad news..

my x1 fell in my cup of soup a few days ago T_T so I turned it in for repairs. I got lucky after like 20 times I could flash my old ROM and SPL back so they can't complain about that.. :p
[XPERIA X1 General] iqvalentin:
Will it change the background only of the Today Screen?

No changes in the screen of the Sony Ericsson Panel?

(I'd like a program to change the Sony Ericsson Panel Background, doing it manually is a little tedious)
[XPERIA X1 General] kueblersimon:
will this creator also run with windows mobile 6.5?

[Touch HD General] nolens3000:
Hello there,

I am using the latest TomTom (vga.7.915.9196.black gps underground) on my HTC Touch HD (Blackstone).

I use TomTom very often to get "voice-navigation" only via headphones while riding my bike. Therefore, I need to keep my Touch HD in my pocket, listening to voice-instructions only. In order to prevent any error inputs via the touch-screen, I use Gyrator to lock the screen.

Now the problem: TomTom shuts itself down every 15 minutes automatically, asking: "TomTom Navigator is still running and using the battery. Would you like to close NAVIGATOR?" If this popup-screen remains unanswered, TomTom closes itself after 2 minutes.

This is, of course, very annoying, because this makes hands-free navigation on a bike impossible.

Is there any way to fix this problem?

I have done my "homework" searching various forums, but couldn't find a clue. I appreciate any help very much.

Yours

nolens
[Touch HD General] neoculture:
Hi Ya.

i had the same problem, re installed tom tom and the same issue.

mine would only shut down when i went to navigate to a location, so. i deleted the maps which was western Europe and installed UK only and it work ok now.
[Touch HD General] nolens3000:
Strange

I also have Western Europe Maps installed. It's odd that the reason should be the maps installed...

Anybody else can confirm this or has found a workaround?

Greetings

[Touch HD General] Compo48:
Hi guys

Same problem here. I'm using TTN7 with my HTC HD2 running WM6.5. I also want to use TT voice only when I'm on my motorbike, but am also encountering the timeout problem. I've got Western Europe maps installed.

Did either of you guys solve the problem apart from switching to UK only maps?

Neil
[Touch HD General] Compo48:
Hi Guys

I've cracked this problem - I couldn't do it by trapping the notification, so I attacked it a different way. The attached script just counts how long TomTom has been in background and then makes it the active window every nine minutes to stop the timeout.

If external power is used, or if TomTom is brought to foreground, then the counter is reset and the counter is only restarted when the power cable is unplugged or TomTom is sent to background.

The process relies on the KeepAwake program. The script will automatically load KeepAwake if it's not running.

It's my first Mortscript, so it may not be coded the way experienced scriptwriters would write it so if anyone wants to suggest improvements, then I'll be happy to take them on board.

When I'm out and about on my bike, I use a program called deltaLock by Christophe Sommer to lock the screen. I set deltaLock to use the HTC back button to unlock and Lock Mode set to "black screen" (I used this on my Tytn II with TTN6).

Happy to receive any feedback

Neil
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] effendi70:
Hi I had unlocked CID / network locks etc using olipro's codes long back. Sent phone for repairs recently but Tmobile returned it without repairing because of unauthorized unlocking.

Is there any process available to restore network locks and get the phone back to shipped state?
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] spone1:
If there was, would it make sense?

T-Mobile already marked your phone in their system as being unlocked in an unauthorized way.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] effendi70:
Thanks. I had unlocked it long back and after that I had it repaired twice via carphone warehouse and Tmobile fixed it. I had recently loaded another rom and I reckon its the 'smart mobility' splash screen that gave it away. I have denied any knowledge of the phone being unlocked.

Is there a way to get rid of the 'smart mobilty' boot screen?, If I get rid of that and load up Tmobile shipped rom they might repair it.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] spone1:
Flashing the original rom back to the phone restores all that, including the stock Windows mobile and radio rom. You can find it at the support section of the htc site, provided that you have a htc and not a tmobile one :) In the latter case, you'd have to check out the t-mobile site for the latest official rom.

[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
never heard about that option

maybe taking it apart and doing if physically?
[General Questions and Answers] Malkemid:
i cant do it physically...

maybe some kind of key config programs do that...like windows bottons default...unfortunatly there is no option for power botton in windows...but maybe in some other programs?can anybody tell me some of these programs?
[General Questions and Answers] afn691:
The best option is going to the Wiki or googling and do a search for the Service Manual for your PPC. Then, you can disassemble it and take out your power button... and put another power button there or repair the one you have now.
[General Questions and Answers] wg5566:
Take out the battery, and it's off.

Use a small needle to carefully retrieve the power button.

If not work, then dismantle it. It's not difficult for most htc devices, usually only need a screw driver and a thin flat tool.

otherwise send to some electronics professional or some engineer to do it.

But you have to make it work, at least not always stuck.

Cheers & good luck.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] htc_mi5:
Hi all,

I am thinking of 'upgrading' to this phone (as the T-Mobile G2 version) but would like to ask if anybody has tried this handset with a tomtom go device, and if the data services work. On my old HTC Touch Diamond the bluetooth would not allow a data connection to be made (aparantly it was 'not included in the build' by the operators), I managed to obtain some files from this site that allowed it to work sometimes but was never reliable. I since obtained a Sony Ericsson C905 handset and that works fine with the tomtom, but its now time for my personal phone account to be upgraded and its a toss up between the G2 and the SE W995. If the G2 will not support bluetooth dial-up connections it may be a deal breaker.

Thanks for any information

MI5
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joemax:
No it won't.

I tried my 720 the other day and it won't even see the Hero has a wireless data service.

Surprisingly its not TomTom's fault here... the Bluetooth profiles in the Hero don't have this feature or even file transfer between devices (though this can be added by rooting and using some software I believe).

TomTom's support for handsets is a bit light TBH and I feel they will never improve this now they have their LIVE product range with a built in SIM.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Heroic_:
I've read a lot about people having issues with their alarms. This morning, I had the first one of those.

Alarm was set for 7.30, when I woke up around 8.30 and picked up the phone, it seemed the clock was stuck at 4.30 am and took about 3 seconds to update (not the fancy HTC clock, the one in the notification bar!). I went to bed last night around midnight and didn't touch the phone all night.

Alarm did not go off even belatedly once the clock updated. This is also not a recurring alarm issue since I only set this one last night. Also not a sound issue, the volume was up quite high and not mistakenly set to silent as has happened to some people.

Has anyone else experienced this?

(and yes, I'm still running a T-Mobile G2 stock ROM, too much of a chicken to update to the new leaked ROM! Hoping HTC will roll it out officially ASAP!))

Thanks for any input!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] PlanetTimmy:
I've had the same problem with my Hero, and I had the same problem with my old XDA Orbit (also made by HTC) that was running Windows Mobile.

I wonder if it's a hardware issue with the way HTC interfaces their firmware with the hardware clock or something like that.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] HugoEgon:
i do also have the same problem, sometimes. it helps to simply reboot the phone. i don't know why it goes in some kind of "deep-sleep", but i hope it will be fixed in the next update.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Pillock:
I've had the same thing (ish) but it was just a crash - I'd been installing and uninstalling apps all night, didn't reboot my phone before going to bed at 11pm. When my alarm failed to go off, I looked at the clock and it was stuck on 11.03pm and the screen wouldn't slide down to unlock, so it had crashed just after I'd gone to bed.

Since then, if ever I'm installing and uninstalling and testing apps and fiddling with settings, I always reboot when I'm done just to make sure nothing's misbehaving. Not had the problem since.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joemax:
I tend to turn on the alarm each night and turn it off in the morning.

Not had an issue with it failing yet.

Not that that is the right way around it as it should go off at the same time each day when left on all the time.

But it may help if some are having a recurring issue.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ergeek:

My university's wlan filters devices by mac address, and I can register only one device to the network. This means no wifi on my TP but only on my PC, unless I register to the network with my TP data and emulate it's mac address on my PC :).
