[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] brontolo999:
Hi all,

I have an HTC touch dual with a 20-key keypad.

Is there a way to recognize the 20-key keypad as 16-key ??

...any registry change or something else??

Thanks in advance,

**********ANYONE WHO WANTS TO P.I.M.P OUT THEIR HTC TOUCH DUAL/NIKE/NIKI READ THIS THREAD AND ALL THE CLEVER PEOPLE HELP ME AND OTHER BEGINNERS LEARN!!!!!!!!!*********

I have been trying to pimp out my HTC touch dual but im a full on dummy. Can someone please explain a step by step guide explaining how to and the

meanings of terminology nessecary for the following. I have a HTC Touch dual(Nike/Niki100) and a video tutorial would be so much easier and clearer if anyones dares to make one :p. I am a beginner and would appreciate clear help/tutorial/insight.

1) I want upgrade my orange branded HTC touch dual to windows mobile 6.5....atm HTC will not let me upgrade to 6.1 from there website as it is an orange branded phone. (I dont like the orange customizations on my phone)

2)I would like that amazing new interface on my phone i think its called the Manilla 2D 2.0 its the one from the New HTC Touch2/Mega phone thats really colourful.

3) I would like to unlock my phone so i can put in a vodafone sim atm im using a turbo sim which temperorily unlocks my phone. i found this site... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=355730 but again all the language is confusing and i don't want to brick my phone! :(

4) I would like advice on the best software out there....

i.e. skyfire and opera instead of internet explorer.

Youtube application.

TCPMP with all the nessecary packs so it lets me play videos without sound errors etc.

Asphalt 4 which is amazing :) etc.

5) i want my HTC touch dual at its optimum ability, tweaks like making the touchscreen more sensitive, and to speed it up. I want people to have the best touch duals they possibly can. Hope someone makes a clear video tutorial on how to do this.

**please clearly break down terminology if you are using it i.e. SPL, HARD SPL, COOKED ROM, KITCHEN, CID/SID, BOOT LOADER, FLASHING. i tried learning them but when i actually try upgrading it all becomes jibberish again lol. id rather stick to lehmans terms.**

THANKS FOR YOUR TIME WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE SOME HELP :D IM WILLING TO LEARN BUT I KEEP GOING IN CIRCLES ATM. Please help.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
I seem to have a problem where no matter what I change the screen timeout time to it keeps reverting back to one minute. Anyone else have the same issue?

I change the time on Settings > Sound & Display > Screen timeout

I have a T-Mobile(UK) G2.

P.S. the Official Nordic HTC Hero Update is out, how long for everybody else to get it?
[Beetles] ABDALLA_WALLY:
hi i read some topic about it but if any go to Magician upgrading you will find wm6 for it and Magician have 64 mb memory but the developers make it so why no one make it for ipaq hw 6515c i hope if any one make it
[Beetles] brewhoxs:
Dream on Bro! They're never care anyway!
[Beetles] Spiaatie:
Ah.. Problem isin't in memory size, but in how the ROM is build.

There were never build tools for older HP iPAQ ROM dumping, You will always end up with a error. HTC tools don't work.

I have tried dumping and making ROMs for HW6500 / HW6900 / H6300 series iPAQs, but all ended up with nothing, as I where unable to get xip and imgs parts. Those ROMs are coded or compressed. WM2003 Tools ask for password, only HP engineers know that password.

Also ROM converting from WM2003 to WM5 is not easy.
[Beetles] turbro:
cant you use rom from a 6915?shame if a rom can never be made because its a pretty solid phone.

i also read for a short while there was an update for wm5 surely someone must have it and can atleast post it?
[General Questions and Answers] ftc_osiris:
Hi All,

I have a what may be a DUMB question from a relative n00b.

Now, believe it or not, I have searched for this answer. So please no "your an idiot comments".

I was wondering whether anyone has put together standalone custom sound themes. I mean like full sound sets that do not change the visual but set up an entire sound and notification set.

If there is a particular name for this kind of scheme, please let me know.

As a general hello to all, I have been using this site and PPCGeeks (seemingly the same forum users) and I have to say, the developers have done wonderful things. A general thank you for all your hard work.

Best regards,

[G1 General] bob50963:
The g1 is perfect for me but it lacks processing power! HTC needs to wake up and give us a g1 with a hemi! It looks like every new android phone coming out is really a downgrade. I love having a physical keyboard! My friend got a new iphone 3gs and it runs circles around my phone when flying through apps like Google maps and its because the Iphone has a nice processor.

Would be cool if 1000's of us got together and massed emailed HTC until they met our demands :D
[G1 General] AdamPI:
The mytouch is a hemi-G1, since hemi means half or less than a whole.

Mobiles tend to be about, what, 8-10 years behind the desktop, so the HTC Orangutan in Q4 2019 should be able to play Crysis on it's 4" sub-3D infipixel™ display.
[G1 General] crpercodani:
Just wait for the sholes because HTC isn't gonna give you **** anytime soon. Motorola is looking like the best bet for Android in the near future. HTC dont listen to there customers just look at allll the driver issues with older winmo phones.
[G1 General] crpercodani:
Also your friends iphone is faster because a) it only runs one process at a time b) safari is basically the best mobile browser out c) apple has complete control over it, they make the product, the os, and control the software.
[G1 General] AdrianK:
What are you talking about?

All 3 android phones currently available (Dream, Magic and Hero) all use the same processor...The Rogers (32A) Magic and Hero both have 288mb of RAM compared to the Dream and 32B Magic's 192mb. AFAIK the 3G S has 256mb of RAM and a ~600mhz processor.

[G1 General] The Reverend Gridlock:
Remember supreme in the hood, u blast the country, in the country you blast rap, just so you get extra attention

Adrian, you just getting done school?
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
Country never gets any rotation. I really can't play my ****, I'm not tryna brag but **** is to loud. I got arrested bout 4 years ago for my music. It didn't help I was blowed and wasn't coperating either. And my homeboy had some more good and a pistol in the car either. I'm gonna send you some links of my ****. I take my car to shows.
[G1 General] The Reverend Gridlock:
Damn po po, gotta ruin all the fun
[G1 General] bob50963:
Ah. I see for some reason I was under the impression the g1 was slower. Also, there not all the same processors. Same speed sure but the hero is little bit different.
[G1 General] bob50963:
I agree with you. The safari browser over all is best. But not the fastest ;). My opera mini smoked safari. My friend used 3g and wifi. I used 3g and won both times. He even used mobile view while i used desktop view.
[G1 General] tengtengvn:
They all use the same MSM7201A CPU running at 528 Mhz. HTC uses this CPU in a lot of their products include the Dream, Magic, Hero, MDA, Touch, Touch Pro, Touch Diamond,...
[G1 General] xManMythLegend:
Yeah Im convinced they got it off the truck or something.

Im not liking any concepts or iterations of Android devices either.

I would love the g1 "style" to stay put. KB/Style of slideout/Trackball comb is best Ive ever had on a phone.

Bigger screen/vga/faster processor etc is what needs changing on future android/G# devices.
[G1 General] CBowley:
Hemi is short for hemispherical (sp?) Referring to the design of the combustion chambers. Hemi DOES NOT mean half or not whole. A simple google search would of prevented you from talking without knowing. Thanks for playing.
[G1 General] bob50963:
Engadget compared all the devices. The Hero phones processor is a bit different. The end numbers on msm7201a is different. Engadget may have made a mistake not sure. I came across this earlier in a thread here on XDA.

Edit: ok I checked HTC Web site and the Hero processor is MSM7200A
[G1 General] AdamPI:
Well done, you have shown your ignorance, hemi is a Greek derived prefix for half, also usable meaning partial. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Hemi-

If you actually needed to google "hemi" and didn't realise that hemisphere was a compound word then I feel for you and everyone else that attended your school.

Of course I knew what the OP was referring to, but was taking the piss.
[G1 General] crpercodani:
OWNED hahahaha
[G1 General] The Reverend Gridlock:
Nice adam, you ripped em up
[G1 General] crpercodani:
I need to get a copy of photoshop and make us some sig graphics. The Wrecking Crew or Team Hijack. what you think?
[G1 General] :
It could work, codani.

But you are going to far if you get bowling shirts made

I have a feeling next week is gonna be worse, gotta make sure I am up during the day for it
[G1 General] CBowley:
I understand where your comming from, but Hemi as in "Hemi under the hood" or "does that thing got a Hemi?" Does not mean "half or not whole" in this context.
[G1 General] supremeteam256:
Yessir I love it. Look at me I'm on at home.
[G1 General] pistol4413:
wreaking crew doesnt do u guys justice. think of some better name.
[G1 General] :
Ive got one more year then I can leave, but Im staying on until Im 18.

Do any of you guys hang out in IRC? Makes more sense than hijacking threads :P Might see If I can get a server going...
[G1 General] :
Never done the irc thing, I haven't been to a chat room in years
[G1 General] crpercodani:
I never used irc I heard it gives you cramps.
[G1 General] :
I have heard that too, but I also heard it can give you nasty rashes and strange hair growth
[G1 General] crpercodani:
Yea in the palm of your hand.
[G1 General] :
I need to avoid that irc thing like the plague than, I am getting creeped out
[G1 General] superg05:
there not all the same there different versions of the same processor like on a desktop processor there are like Kentsfield ,Wolfdale , Penryn a processor may be the same name but they are different faster ,slower,features added or removed different variations.

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows of a remote control application that can Control Spotify that's running on a workstation - Over bluetooth or wireless...

Just like Salling Clicker does for iTunes - shame it don't work on Android!
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] David Horn:
Windows or Mac? On a Mac Spotify responds to the same shortcuts as iTunes, so I think an iTunes remote would work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] tomehb:
Windows

Sorry, forgot that detail..

Windows :(

Will give it a go though :) You never know...

I'm using an app called Tunes Remote which is very handy.

Connects over your wireless network and lets you control iTunes, it brings back the album art as well to display on your phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] PeterMeulders:
Hello

I have installed Remote Tunes and everything went fine except that it doesn't find any tracks. It does displays the artists and albums, but when I do a search it keeps searching but doesn't return a result.

If I click play then ITunes starts playing the current selected playlist. It also shows the current track playing on my Hero. So the communication with Itunes is working.

I use WinXP and the latest ITunes 9.0.1. I also have 2500 tracks in my ITunes

Update : If I long press an artist or album I can play the "invisible" tracks.

Anybody any ideas?

Thanks in advance
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] crispy514:
I just wondered what people thought of the Manila 2.5?

I've tried several ROM's and bugs aside, there are some things I like and some things I hate!

I like the weather on the clock on homepage, but I don't like the shortcuts as i think they are ugly and make the screen look cluttered. I much preferred the old programs tab. I also really need to see more calender data!

I like the new music player look, but dislike the new contacts look.

I really like the deeper intergration of WM into manila UI

I like the coloured icons and general look of manila, and i really love the new messaging system (when the bugs are fixed ;) ).

What do other people think?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ArtieQ:
I don't like the look of the homescreen, I prefer Manila 2.0/2.1's look.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] oelapoel:
well.. the same food gives different tastes for everyone :).

I like the new homescreen, its more usable, although I think the 3 buttons are too big... sliding down gives more shortcuts, which is more convenient...

I also really like the new people tab shortcut style... the old one is making me crazy when sliding those small thumbnails on the rite...

other than that, I dont know.. never used one before... for me, its all about convenience and usability... there is no point of having nice GUI, but hard to use. And to me, HTC is going on the right track :)
[HTC Vox] bozhinov79:
can somebody post a cab for the htc weather application for sliding panels homescreen that could be installed on other (non htc) smartphones.

I tried feather weather and miniweather, but they are not working properly.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tallen3:
I wonder when the rest will follow.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tsekh501:
Version number is the same as the leaked one. The page doesn't accept the serial number I entered (perhaps because mine was a UK phone?). Can someone report whether there is any difference between this ROM and the leaked one?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Sawkes:
Well I think this update is for Nordic only. It's at the danish site too :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Shahpur.Azizpour:
yeah but it only shows the general build number. the are more detailed numbers when you actually check out the build on the hero.

so somebody has to update the official rom and post the detailed build infos here.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] phel21:
It seems impossible to download the new image using firefox on linux. Is HTC so bent on MS products that they won't support downloads with a non-MS browser, or is the support-page just broken?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Sawkes:
U need Windows to do it
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jpalo:
There is something strange going on on HTC Support site. Pages are not showing download links. Will probably be fixed soon.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] phel21:
Hope not. I ditched windows 15 years ago and don't intend to install it anywhere just to be able to maintain a linux-device ;)

Jokes aside, I believe it will be possible to extract an update.zip that can be installed the same way as MoDaCo's custom rom, although that method will remain unsupported by HTC.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] superevo89:
will this update work with a non branded hero? being that the update is posted on the norway webpage
[Hero, G2 Touch General] drsmisk:
just installer the nordic, sweden update. awesome. Major difference in the entire feel of the OS.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] axellink:
Did it perform a system reset? Need to know whether I need to save my files or not.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] drsmisk:
yes it did, wiped everything on the phonememory. I used mybackup to back it all up.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] axellink:
What backup software did you use?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] skenmy:
I have a SIM unlocked HTC Hero and i'm in the UK. Should I wait for the official UK ROM or just install the nordic one? Has anyone got any experience in installing the Nordic ROM to a non-nordic hero?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Sawkes:
axe look the topic above you :rolleyes:

Mybackup is great to back up everything (except scenes).

Has anyone tested their US tmo 3g speeds at any test sites?

i did mine today while connected to 3g and it only showed a DL speed of

68Mbps (484 Kbps)

thats like not even 1% better then edge speed....

i tested at testmyiphone.com
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sleonard:
Those numbers don't compute. 68Mbs is blazing fast. Faster than even my cable modem, faster than any cellular connection on the planet, and way, way faster than 484Kbps.

68Mbs = 68000 kbps

484kbs = 0.484 Mbps

S
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] loueber:
my bad. sorry if forgot the point.

so its:

.68 Mbps not 68

i downloaded a 3MB file in 83 seconds....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Cheeze[iT]:
.68mbps is a lot? I thought 3G was at most like 1Mbps? I tethered to my laptop and got .86Mbps down and .30Mbps up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] loueber:
no my first posting said 68 in error.. it should have read .68.

so his comment was regarding 68 being too fast and incorect on my part.

so the question stands at .68 for evaluation
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Gman65:
about the same here

.47Mbps(469Kbps) DL speed3072 KB in 53.6 seconds

Have tested higher before
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] loueber:
ok good..

what gets me is when the page says its only a small percentage faster then edge... this is my first 3g... so i have nothing to compare it too....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Gman65:
Much faster than edge on my retired tmo wing...lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kerrkj:
Saw 880kbps in downtown Rochester NY using the DSL reports mobile speed test last weekend. Much slower on 3G in Newport News VA during the week, in the 400kbps range (can't remember exactly)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] aragorn771:
Which browsers are you using to perform these tests? Opera? PIE? I got 120 KBs on PIE using 6mb test and 71KBs on Opera. Is this test even accurate for WMo considering it was setup for Iphone? I tried the download and the combination test, the download speed was much faster during the combination test.

I currently have a blackberry data plan with t-mo and would like to know if this will work with the touch pro 2 as far as internet connectivity goes.
