same for me here, unfortunately this is also when not having ANY application running in background (just after phone startup).. takes at least lets say 4-5 secs until da mp3 is played, thats really sucking

Try not using mp3 as ringtone. Use the original HTC ones. The ringtone delay will decrease considerably

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaybea:
I am using the MoDaCo leaked ROM (HTC Generic 2.73.405.5) and the response to incoming calls is much quicker, with the ringing starting shortly after the first flash of the trackball so I guess that you will get an improvement once HTC release the update and you install it.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoda6:
I'm also using the Modaco 2.2 ROM and I've just tried calling my phone from a landline. I heard 4 rings in the landline receiver before my phone did anything with the trackball or the ringtone. However, less than a second after the track ball started flashing my MP3 ringtone started playing. 4 rings is quite a long time, at least 5-6 seconds, surely that can't be normal, can it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] licenced:
That's not good no.

How about an experiment ... reboot your phone, give it a minute after booting to finish its initialisation stuff then try ringing again. Better or the same?

I was wondering if it's possible to change the cover just to turn a mda compactV into an original HTC. I think that the display has a different shape...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] NoSecks:
yes the display has a diffrent looking

but also the backcover is looking diffrent as the original HTC device

but i like the MDA style more as the original one... looks cooler , rounder more smoothly... black shiny u knw...

well but yes- that depends on the user xD

is it possible to change`?

Hi all,

after reading so many posts that i thought my head would explode I thought i would ask some advice

which is the screen rotation app of choice?

I have loaded and unloaded Gsens, Gyrator, change screen and I am now totally confused.

The simples one ( cant even remember which one) was so simple to use - open app insert stylus- done! but it didnt work on lots of progs for me.

what i rally want is a nice simple app that allows me to choose which progs ( mainly text and word etc) to have rotated.

sorry for being such a pain

the phone is totally original by the way

many thanks

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] stringman:
Thanks for the reply.

after a cup of coffee I hard reset the phone and tried again:

tried g-config. Dead easy to use but i could not get it working on loads of programmes.

I then tried Gyrator which seems to work really well ( though i cant get it to work on any of the programmes that still keep START on the top of the screen - is that correct?)

maybe i will try G- config again

thanks very much and keep up the sterling work

well it may not have the same user interface as the others but flipit is in my opinion the fastest rotater there is out there.

Read the small guide and remember to delete the regs regarding the normal gsensor, and the you will see that flipit - as standard - will rotate everything, if the app/page supports it.

Have a look at MortScript !

MortScript interprets a (quite) simple batch language. If you know .bat files in DOS or shell scripts: it's something like that. Its focus is to remote control or launch other applications, not to write real applications. I.e., you can't do complex dialogs or graphics with it.

Find it here;

http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=page&entry=ms_overview&action=view&menu=29

When downloading the *.zip file, unpack it and run it once. This way both extentions *.mscr and *.mortrun get their registry entry.

id go for the HTC Hero too

1.battery life-for some reason I have way longer battery life with the hero than the HD,

maybe cause of the screen size

2.push mail-i am always connected to the net.My phone receives my mail faster than my mac mail :)

3.the screen has a smaller resolution but is way faster and responsive(with new rom) than HD with the best rom and the capacitive screen is just amazingly responsive

4.the cons:no bt transfer,no gps app.other than that I dont miss anything.

battery with very heavy use 50% a day

screen very responsive and fast

wouldn't go back, never again resistive screen :/

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dicer42:
Is there any way to keep certain background applications running if memory runs low and the android garbage collector goes around killing processes that are running in the background?

I have the problem that under low memory situations android kills all my background apps and especially services. This is ok for most use-cases, but is really annoying especially for my Jabber client and sometimes even the music app.

I looked through the API doc and found that you can set Service::setForeground(true) to prevent the service from being killed. This is nice for open source apps, but I can't prevent closed source apps from being killed that way. And I'm not even sure if it helps in all cases, as the music app should be using it and gets killed too.

Does anyone know how I could exclude certain apps from being killed in the BG? Which process is responsible for doing that? Wouldn't it be possible to patch that process or part of the kernel to exclude certain processes?

I know there are workarounds for keeping the launcher in memory by restarting it all the time. That wouldn't help in my situation where the Jabber service has a permanent network connection going.

Anyone got technical information for me on this?

Hi,

I have a quick question: which build is equal to or most close to WM6.5 "RTM"?

I have been flashing new builds for quite a while (usually Da_G's) as they come out, but I've noticed that the point at which WM6.5 was "final" has come and gone. I'd quite like to roll back to the officially RTM build for a while, but I am not sure which build to pick?

Any advice or insight much appreciated.

Thanks,

I stopped cooking after 21222 because of its stability.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mindfrost82:
I stopped after RRE 8.3, which is 23016.

I'll try a newer one here and there, but so far I don't like how they made some of the screens really big and spread out so you have to scroll to do simple tasks. I'm all for making it finger-friendly, but they need to make it not so fugly lol. Hopefully it'll get better.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mdsharpe:
Thanks guys :-)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Yeah, I've been using 23016 for 6 weeks now. It's pretty sweet and bug-free. The new native kernel is really good-less ram usage and I find that my gps works a helluva lot better (go figure). I get locks on cold starts in just a few minutes reliably, even without a quick gps dump (I don't have aGPS). On warm starts, it's just a few seconds.

I'm not a huge fan of finger friendliness, so I've stayed away from the newer stuff. More finger friendly = less info on the screen + lots of scrolling to get anywhere. Sooner or later, all we'll have is on big stupid button on the screen.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mdsharpe:
Yeah I have settled on 23016 for now. I see bugs occasionally but it is extremely usable on the whole and very fast.

It will be interesting to see what build is included on official WM6.5 devices when they start being released.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
I thought it was going to be 21234 and its cousins. They aren't going to release the new ones that we're using (at least not soon), I wouldn't think. I'm sure that the carriers like to work on the roms for several months or longer before releasing their version. AT&T put out their test rom here in january and didn't release the final version until june (with few changes). I doubt that the ones coming out soon will have all the new UI stuff that started with the 6.5.1 builds.
