[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] swift0114:
I've looked at a lot of videos on youtube displaying windows mobile 6.5/6.5.1, none of them have a stock tab with the titanium interface. Can someone build it in their ROM?

I'm stuck using Manila with TF3D2 because it has the awesome stock tab! Would love to see a stock tab in titanium.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] superdave247:
I know you can get this after you root your phone, but do I really have to install a different ROM in order to make multi touch possible?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Apollo_316:
Unfortunately yes. Until google themselves incorporate this feature in their stock updates then you'll have to install a rom with the HTC modified code to use multitouch. In all honesty I've tried it and it's nothing impressive yet, not compared to the iPhone because it's in its baby stages still on the Android system. So I wouldn't stress yourself on flashing new roms to your phone until the multitouch picks up a little bit in functionality. If this is really important to you then I'd say by all means flash away, but you will have to flash for now.

Hope that helps!

Hey guys, i have used the search but for some reason when i press the submit to complete the search i get a Page cannot be displayed message, not sure if its my computer or not, so sorry if this has already been covered

i have a TG01 and a Touch HD, i was wondering if anyone has the Manila TF3D 2.5 for download as a cab so i can install it on the TG01 because i love TF3D but the manila thats floating around here with the download cab is a very old version of the TouchFlo so i was wondering if anyone has the 2.5 in a cab so i can install it on my wonderful TG01 to make it look as nice as the Touch HD :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Showtime7:
I thought it had to be built into the rom?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] elite-fusion:
i have no idea, thats why im asking :( but there are no roms for the TG01 :( thats why i was looking for a cab maybe :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Showtime7:
Well I have the TP2 and have seen it posted there that 2.5 has to be built into the rom, probably the same for your device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] elite-fusion:
:( crap that sucks because g0d knows when we'll have roms for my phone :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ndn715:
well where the h*** did you get one of those? :)

i have not seen a 2.5 cab, so yes it does need to be cooked in... however, if you're resourceful, you can use tools here to dump your ROM (there should be a flash util from toshiba if your OS is wiped from doing any of this.)

after the dump, disassemble the rom with one of the kitchens here... now the files should be in order but you're going to have a hard time building and flashing out of that with HTC oriented tools... im sure others have much better ideas how to recompile it.

if you can disassemble, build (no modifications), and flash, then really try to get your hands wet making a rom (ex. just cooking in manila 2.5 or even start with something simple like add some OEM packages) and start flashing til you like it! yes, it's not for those without time, but like you said there's no roms for the TG01 so you can pioneer it!

if your interested in messing around with this, im sure that i and the other xda members would be happy to chat offline to help you get it working... if you got one, then there's surely more to come... :cool:

btw... for a sick interface, just load up SPB mobile shell with the Revolution theme... a lot like the Sense UI, it's still pretty sweet :)
[Touch CDMA General] mukan24:
I was tinkering around with the NFSFAN's V10 in the configuration setting and then it did a soft reset but now the touch function is not working so I cannot enter my password to begin using the phone....Is there anyway for me to retrieve the contacts and calender and texts on my phone without having to delete everything? Or any program out there that can extract the data even though my phone is currently locked?

I have the V16 which I have yet to install....

Any help will be greatly appreciated...Thanks

Also forgive me if this sounds as a stupid q...but my touch is with bell and is there any way to get the wifi going? Probably not I figure heheh?

Also is there a way I can send and receive files such as pictures with bell like an MMS file...thanks
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
hey why dont you try plugging the phone into a computer and see if activesync works you should be able to get your contacts at least, but i am not sure. good luck:)
[Touch CDMA General] mukan24:
I can't get activesync to work...Only my sd card shows up...Also what program is best to use to transfer the contacts...Outlook express?
[Touch CDMA General] mukan24:
Ok I got it to sync after doing a hard reset but activesync says I don't have permission to access the files...Is the pim.vol all I need or do I also need the cemail.vol? As I don't have permission to copy the later....Lastly are the notes also saved in pim.vol or are they separate?
[Touch CDMA General] jamezelle:
pim.vol should be your contacts not sure about cemail.vol(sounds like email to me idk)
[Touch CDMA General] mukan24:
Ok so I flashed to the latest stock rom from HTC...but the tapping on the screen is very bad...Some things are unresponsive and other things I have to press down really hard and It's really slow...Did I screw something up here? It was hard for me to get past the initial setup where I had to align the screen....

Also I am confused on the radio thing...What is the best one to get right now? And do I really need to install it with a 2Gb microSD? I have a 4gb

[Touch Diamond CDMA] evil_gusgus:
You need to download windows mobile device center.
[Touch Diamond CDMA] cmonex:
pfft, for a tenner you could have got help on that program from us (OliNex) :P
[Touch Diamond CDMA] cmonex:
you should use the ppcgeeks link, and just make sure your WMDC is the latest version from microsoft
[Touch Diamond CDMA] omnicronx:
Vista/7 + my CDMA bell diamond = does not play very well.. XP works fine..

I have to go into bootloader in order to flash anything, be it unlocker, rom or radio. take off back casing, make sure phone is in standby and press and hold the volume down, reset button beside the battery, and the the power button until it goes into the bootloader (i.e you are holding down the three buttons at the same time)

Its hit or miss for some people, but you definitely need the newest version of WMDC so I would try that first. Some people even need to disable USB connections in WMDC in order for it to work too.. so try these two things first, and if that does not work try going into bootloader..
[Touch Diamond CDMA] Soul Rebel:
My Bell Diamond needed to be unlocked! however, i couldn't do it on my laptop running vista, the program kept crashing. get an XP computer, run activesync on it, download the CDMA unlocker, and run it! VOILA. you should have no issues loading custom roms on your phone on vista tho! G/L

Ever get disconnected from aim, msn, yahoo with the standard IM app? How can I make it like my old blackberry 8900 & keep it going 24/7 no matter if I loose signal traveling then regain it (changing towers). Is that even possible?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] sharjeel:
I have a Windows 7 PC and a Kaiser with WinM6.5. I have disabled time sync on both of these.

Whenever I connect my Kaiser to PC and sync it, the time on Kaiser gets changed by exactly one hour more than the PC. If I change it back and connect the device again, it still happens. I've tried changing ROM on my kaiser but of no avail.

How do I fix this?

PS: I'm based in Pakistan. Here we have DST applied so that clocks are forwarded by one hour. That means the time which appears on Kaiser after syncing is offset by two hours without DST and one hour with DST.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] livethemoment2:
Make sure the TZ is the same on the PC and on the Kaiser. Try re-synch and see if the problem it still does the same thing. I had the same problem a while back, and it turned out my PC was displaying the right time but set to a different TZ.

Voice Twister

I just got the 3 day trial of Voice Twister. It can't do live, real-time voice changes. Instead you hold a button to record, then let up to hear the altered audio clip.

I did have a few instances of stuttered or truncated playback, but that may be due to low system resources. Still a fun little app though!

Missed the red print huh?

* NOTE: Voice Twister is not designed to use during a phone call and can not morph your voice within a phone call.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ongkenhan:
hi there, i flashed my htc touch diamond with energy ROM, everythings goes well.

I tried to connect my htc touch diamond to my car's audio (which can support USB storage) for musics. It can play the musics, but after i disconnect my diamond, i found that my diamond cannot detect the "internal storage" anymore, and yet i can detect it when i connect my phone to my pc.

Anyone here know how can this happened and how to solve it?

When i checked the memory setting for my diamond.

It shows that the "storage card is not installed"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] supersanj:
By default, when the Diamond is set to be used as a Disk Drive (one of the USB connection options), you are unable to see the internal storage on the phone until you disconnect the USB cable.

Now that leads me to believe that when you connect it to your car audio it is connecting as a disk drive. When you unplug it though, it is not registering the disconnection and still thinks its connected via disk drive.

Did it work fine prior to flashing the energy ROM? If so, flash back to Stock ROM and make sure it is working again. Also, may be worth asking this in the Energy ROM thread.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ongkenhan:
Thanks for your explaination, bro.

I flashed back to the stock rom, the problem still presists.

I connect my phone to the pc again and format my internal storage and reflash my ROM again. It works. Everythings turn back to normal. :)

Lesson learnt:-

No to connect your diamond to your car audio's USB.

After i turn on my phone i use Taskiller to close all the Apps that are running in the background but when i check a few minutes later some of them are back. Is there a way to stop them from starting by themselves?
[G1 Apps and Games] Burlyskink:
You can use TaskPanel to have it automatically close them when they open
[G1 Apps and Games] NguyenHuu:
doing this might drain your battery as you said the apps always open after you close it. so if u have an app that keeps closing it everytime it opens, itll just be a constant cycle, drain battery, slow down performance, etc.

some apps that open after you close may be essential to the android process, like dialer, calnedar, gmail storage, im, etc.

Hi All

My 2 cents worth...

The second Alpha and the current Beta seem to be a little buggy on a (unbranded) Touch Pro2. The program seems to freeze a bit and the Alpha even sent Resco Explorer into a looped error for some reason.

Obviously some functionality is still to come, but the principal is really promising. It is interesting that the first Alpha was a lot less buggy in general running, this versions seems to get stuck on some general JPEG images in a weird pixellated screen freeze....?

The screen controls for zoom etc. leave a ghosted mark when they go off, this stays until you do the next action.

The twin rotate icons are kinda silly too...

The potential for this app is HUGE, there is still some major functionality work to do though, at least on a TP2.

It is a big leap forward and makes HTC's viewer look like a very poor cousin!

[G1 Android Development] anduslim:
I have encountered the same "loading screen" problem when restoring sms from the old builds to the current new hero builds using Backup for Root Users. This is what I did to solve it:

the logcat reveals this missing table field "index_on_sim", thus using a sqlite editor, I compared the old mmssms.db and the new mmssms.db files. The missing field in under the sms table so all one need is to ADD the new field "index_on_sim" with type INTEGER. Upon careful observation, this field is used with value "-1" for incoming sms, not for outgoing ones.

Thus, I used the following sql commands:

1. to check for the correct index_on_sim rows with non-empty service_center info

=> SELECT sms.index_on_sim FROM sms WHERE service_center IS NOT NULL

2. to modify the above index_on_sim rows with '-1'

=> UPDATE sms SET index_on_sim = '-1' WHERE service_center IS NOT NULL

okay once done, verify that the rows are updated correctly and save the db.

push the edited mmssms.db to the Backup for Root Users folder or directly into /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases.

That's it! Your old sms will appear in the new hero build.

Attached is the sqlite program. ( To be used in linux/ubuntu )

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] S.V.I:
There seems to be a huge demand to be able to stuff more more stuff into low end devices. In addition to HTC's apps, Windows OS is getting bigger too. I remember when the file count in my windows folder was about 3500 loaded, and now it is getting closer to 5000.

I decided to write a few pages describing what I do to help my rom perform well by optimizing GFX (graphics) to take less processing power; less space in RAM; as well as ROM.

Many have tried to compress GFX using programs; only to be decompressed later on the device in real time. This actually reduces performance.

I am often lazy... but being lazy takes a lot more effort.

I attached a PDF file as an introduction.

There will be more to come (why I took 5 posts)

Changing the extension of your files! :)

CHANGING THE EXTENSION OF YOUR FILES! :)

Ever have a background image that is so complicated with gradients that no matter how you try to save it in PNG format it just does not look good?

I have a solution: You can use save for web in JPG format, then rename the extension to whatever the original file is (PNG BMP GIF and so on)

anyone ever tried to trick your ppc programs to thinking that it is using a BMP image, while in fact it is merely a png with a bmp extension?

Have you ever noticed that a lot of the TSK installers used to use GIF files but now many of them use JPG??

I have some good news for those who are trying to save space in their roms: you can change the extension!

I did that with HTC Phone canvas just yesterday!

after turning all of the PNG's to 8 bit, I did a little experiment:

I took all of the bitmaps out of the Phone canvas cab and saved them as PNG8 in Photoshop. Then changed the extension from .png to .bmp . Put all of these new fake bitmaps back into the cab and installed it. the result is that it worked, saved space and ram.

NOTE: I also tried to do that inside the DLL, but it did not work. :(

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] S.V.I:
download the file atached to the first post;

extract it;

open with an acrobat reader (adobe reader);

Read it.

the results will vary from file to file. the best I remember this method doing, is making a 14kb image into a 0.5kb file. some come already optimized more or less. so the results vary. all of the png images (except weather) in my rom are less than 1kb each. this adds up with 400 images. before, all of the png gfx took up about 2mb, now less than one.

I will also be writing one specificaly about manila. this will include where you can put the files, as well as how to keep from killing your self when doing a repetative task(s) on a 400 image program. :D
