I work with a bunch or radio reporters and an looking for an audio recorder and editor to put on a windows mobile phone. I use the touch HD and can test it on that. I have searched the forums for this but could not find anything. I have found a lot of apps for the iPhone to do this but dont want to go down that road.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ASK768:
there is a voice recorder on the touch hd (quality leaves a lot to be desired though).

as for editor, i believe there was an editor made for the new omnia but i dont know if that has been sucessfully ported yet
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] rockinrose:
We have tried it and with an external mic it works ok. But what we want to do is be able to record interviews and sound bites, Edit them into a story and be able to send them off either via MMS or email to our network center. I have found an app for the iPhone that does this called poddio but like I said before I dont want to have to go out abd buy a bunch of iPhones to do this. We are wanting to use phones to do this because in Afghanistan and Pakistan reporters have to keep on the down low at avaoid being harassed or worse.

Thanks for the help and I am hoping to find a way to keep these guys safe and still get the news out.

Hey guys I have a problem with my rhodiom. I flashed from a german stock rom to an english rom and now the hardware keyboard makes an "y" and not an "z" and I also dont have the letters "ä,ü,ö".

Is there a cab available to change the hardware keyboard to german???
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] skycamefalling:
Use a registry editor to change the key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\IME\KeyboardLayouFiles]
"07FF"="eT9.Rhodium.wwe.kmap.txt"

to

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tegic\eT9\IME\KeyboardLayouFiles]
"07FF"="eT9.Rhodium.0407.kmap.txt"

Then the hardware keyboard should work with all the symbols, but in the software keyboard the "z" and "y" keys will still be changed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] RobbyTouchHD:
Thanks for your quick help! Software keyboard is not so important for me. I am using the Fingerkeyboard 2.1 for it and it works in all languages!

:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] skycamefalling:
Okay, that's fine then :D

If in the hardware keyboard the "y" and "z" are still messed, then try setting the registry key

HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\
"CurLang"="407" (HEX)

German Keyboard Layout

Hi,

my first work... I tried to create a CABfile for that, and I think it works.

Please find attached here.

Hallo zusammen,

ich habe mal versucht ein CAB-File zu erstellen.

Es ändert die 3 benötigten Registry-Werte und kopiert 2 benötigte Dateien ins Windowsverzeichnis.

Umlaute usw sind auch auf dem Hardware-Keyboard damit richtig... nicht nur y und z...

Perfekt ist es natürlich diese Datei auf die Speicherkarte in das Verzeichnis xda_uc zu kopieren.

Z.B. beim Energy-ROM wird dann alles dort selbst installiert nach nem hardreset oder Flashen von nem neuen Rom.

Habe keinen Hardreset gemacht um das zu testen. Habe die Werte von Hand zurückgestellt und dann das CAB probiert, bei mir hats geklappt...

Kann aber ein Profi gerne überarbeiten... Ich bin wirklich nur Laie und hatte mal vor vielleicht 5 Jahren die letzte CAB-Datei erstellt...

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] bemymonkey:
Hi everyone,

I've been running a WM6.5 ROM lately, and the stability was great - less crashes, hardly any problems with the device just turning off... but it was extremely slow because most of the RAM was used just for running the system.

So I went back to a WM6.1 ROM, and I noticed that the device was freezing in standby mode when left alone for a while - the screen won't turn on any more... apparently the CPU locks to 100% when the freezes happen, because after a restart the battery is drained to 50% (from 100%!) and the device is very hot. This used to happen on other WM6.1 ROMs as well...

Any idea why this is happening? Why only on WM6.1 ROMs? Is my device just ****ed up? Or am I doing something wrong?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] srbwap:
same with me.. ..but i think that my device haw this freezing on sms receiving, sometimes it vibrate without stop. ..
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] bemymonkey:
Do you use BatteryStatus by any chance? I've just uninstalled it on a whim and so far no crashes. Won't be able to tell for sure until in a few days though...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] nlel:
I had the Standby of Death SOD this is when the phone fails to come out of standby with a power button press. This issue only affects some people on some networks. I'm not sure if its a network problem or a software problem but as only a minority of people have it, I suspect its mainly a network problem there is a software solution.

The solution is to change the phone settings band option from auto 3G/2G to either 3G Only (WCDMA + UTMS 2100 in Europe) or 2G Only (GSM + AUTO) depending on your requirements.

Also read this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=540943&highlight=standby&page=2 where the resolution was to get a new SIM.

Obviously this only solves the problem when the crash is because of the sim and/or settings which impact the sim. To rule out a software cause its best to start with a hard reset.

Prophet doesn't have 3G.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] wapvirus:
read the post fully he is saying select what your phone supports :rolleyes:

Did you try suggestion in post #4 ?

Just might be the answer your looking for ;)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] bemymonkey:
So how would I have gone about selecting something that my phone doesn't support in the first place?

As far as I can tell, there is no possible way I could have set my Prophet to use 3G ;)

Oh and by the way, your ROMs are great and all, but using the comma, period and Shift key every now and then will make what you're trying to say a lot more easy to understand...

As for the problem itself - I've just reinstalled a completely blank ROM (one of dioxda's) and only sync'd my contacts and appointments - NO third-party software whatsoever. And looky here, no crashes. Now I can install one app per day and see which one causes the SODs... :o
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] nlel:
I understand what you are saying on the HTC Tytn II and HTC Touch Diamond 2 the phones I had the Standby of Death with it was due to the phones network/band type being set to AUTO 3G/2G, changing this setting to either 3G only (WCDMA + UMTS 2100) or 2G only (GSM + AUTO) solved the problem completely.

In your case its most probably due to something you've installed which is a lot easier to solve, I suppose when you look in your phones network type setting GSM is the only option and the band is probably already set to AUTO.

I didn't know the Prophet did not support 3G before I posted this, on all phones that support 3G with this problem my solution often solves the problem but it can happen because of certain software installed also.
[Touch HD General] pjfriend:
I was lucky enough to be able to take advantage of the recent Orange contract change palarver and move to T-Mobile. Much cheaper contract, twice as much data and not having to deal with Orange's 'interesting' outlook on customer service.

Not sure what this will mean but http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8243226.stm

I don't think so large mergers are ever good for the customer though.
[Touch HD General] c_lee:
Practically-speaking they will probably get past the regulator with a bit of begging as O2 and Voda still own a decent chunk of the market, and the T-mob people will benefit from the better backbone capacity of Orange. The whole contract escape thing will still apply as it's in EU law - if the new company ups prices in the future, people can envoke the cancellation clause then just as they did last month. I imagine they'll reprice only when the brand names merge, and only to the bare minimum, as they know people will exploit it to death. You can't keep the same prices forever though, as everyone's copying each other so switching will be less tempting as time goes on.

Sidebar - if you're using data a lot, Voda UK is the place to be as they're finally rolling out their new backbone. HSDPA at up to 14 mbits to all existing customers instead of the 3 to 7 mbits everyone else caps at, and no handset upgrades required. Initial testing proves it works as advertised, though of course depends on the signal strength.
[Touch HD General] danprocter:
Does this mean that if the do merge, we will be able to cancel our contracts etc again???
[Touch HD General] pjfriend:
Thanks for the reply Spartan. Will look into Vodaphone.

I don't think contracts will be able to be broken unless they change charges or similar. . .
[Touch HD General] Step666:
Pull the other one.

Vodafone may be rolling out 14.4Mbps in about 3 places but for those of us who live in the majority of the rest of the country, it's just a slap in the face.

Personally, given the choice between HSDPA coverage with O2, Orange or T-Mobile or not even getting 2G coverage with Vodafone, let alone high-speed data, I know who I won't be choosing.

As for all this talk about cancelling contracts, read the article again - even if the merger is approved, both brands will operate under their own names for the first 18 months or so whilst all the admin gets sorted.
[Touch HD General] c_lee:
Their service is currently live for the centers of London, Birmingham and Liverpool simply because those are the three cities with highest HSPA usage density, though it's apparently being rolled out to the whole country over the next 6-12 months. It's a heck of a lot of work, but Voda insist it will happen, and none of the other operators will say they're even considering it. Some say they can't afford it, some say they're waiting for HSPAE/LTE before doing any upgrades.

As I said it is indeed dependent on your RF path and the cell load, but the point is a BTS capped at 14M will be able to run far more users at typical 3-bar rates (1 to 5M), which if you've tried to pull data in the centre of a city with 5 bars on your phone you know is a big problem - we hit the backhaul capacity very easily. Of course in the middle of nowhere your data rates won't be any good, but it's supply and demand; if it's only you out there it's uneconomical for anyone to install a cell tower. Femtos are available though, so you can turn your DSL line into a domestic 3G base station.

As I also said, T-mob/Orange prices are only likely to change at the rebrand stage and only where absolutely necessary, but it's still the case that when they do happen the contract escape clauses are still very much there. I doubt you'll get to save much as I guess all the operators will have upped their prices (specially if there's less competition), but we we've seen many people want to get out of long contracts for other reasons.

As my sig says, I don't use Voda nor do I have any connection to them. In theory I use Orange, as they provide Three's 2G capacity, but I wish I didn't!
[Touch HD General] Step666:
Last I heard, it's continuing roll-out was 'on an ongoing basis'.

But the problem for those of us who live somewhere other than those certain parts of London, Birmingham and Liverpool is that Vodafone's plans are ridiculously vague - sure, they plan to roll it out to the rest of country but what does that mean exactly?

Does that mean they're going to be increasing the amount of the country that they cover or are they merely going to upgrade the speeds in the few places that they already offer coverage? Because, if it's the second option, it still leaves a lot of people out in the cold because Vodafone's coverage is already pretty crummy - they're a long way off being the best network for coverage.

As for femtocells, what a joke.

If your broadband speeds are good enough to make installing one viable, why would you then want to use a mobile-based internet connection and not just your landline instead?

Anyway, speeds are just one element of offering a practical cellular data service to customers - obviously (as I've already mentioned) coverage is another factor, one that Vodafone currents fails quite badly on and there's also the issue of download allowances, another area that Vodafone is really quite poor for.

Going back to the point at hand though, I for one doubt that T-Mobile and Orange merging will cause end customers to be worse off - T-Mobile hasn't been a big player for a while, they're not particularly competitive so I honestly doubt that their disappearance as a separate entity will be that big an issue.

In fact, I reckon it'd probably be better for customer in the long run - being leapfrogged in this manner will, hopefully, force Vodafone and O2 to up their game - both are guilty of a lot of complacency of late so to be taken down a peg or two and forced to approach the market from a disadvantaged position could well be a good thing.
[Touch HD General] c_lee:
Firstly the roll-out will happen to all existing Voda 3G BTS nodes, as the backhaul upgrade is required for other purposes. Installing new BTSs is a different matter entirely, and I agree they're not great in rural areas (but then no one operator is ahead of the game on that one. Our office is in the middle of the countryside and we get a decent Three signal purely by chance - no 3G from anyone else - but a few miles down the road at home only Orange will work.

All the operators are gradually populating the dead areas where there's a demand, but nobody's going to put 3G in where there aren't enough customers and there's a 2G signal available - the priority is going to the zero signal areas first, and only those where people are calling them and complaining about it.

Agree a femtocell is a strange idea if you use your landline for calls and DSL through a PC, but many people run their entire lives through their cell number, and forwarding it to a landline costs you money when someone calls you. Femtos mean you're not paying for the calls in either direction, and helps people who don't have a wifi-enabled handset to pull down 'free' data.
[Touch HD General] Step666:
I would like to start by thanking you for your reply, it makes for interesting reading.

But I reserve the right to remain cynical (I'm Scottish, what do you expect...). Large parts of Vodafone's 3G network don't even support 7.2Mbps yet, so I just don't see them upgrading it all to 14.4.

As for the problems with signal, I'm not talking about rural areas.

Where I work is in a built-up area, near the centre of a large town and, as it happens, right across the road from a mobile phone mast. Every network except Vodafone offers HSDPA coverage but to just make a call on Vodafone you have to hang out a window or head off down the street waving your phone in the air to get signal.

I see what you're saying about some people's lives being run through their mobile but I still cannot quite see the use of femtocells.

If a person's phone is that important, then they would be unlikely to be using a network that offered such poor coverage in their home. Alternatively, if they already have reasonable 2G coverage, then why get a femtocell to aid 3G coverage when you have a perfectly good landline internet connection which will be cheaper to use, almost certainly offer a faster speed and will definitely have a larger usage allowance; not to mention that no-one in their right mind would argue that the web experience on a phone can match that of a proper PC or laptop.

A femtocell doesn't give you free data, nor does it give you wi-fi access - it merely improves the network signal strength/coverage in your home but you still have to pay for data the same way you would if you were out and about.
[Touch HD General] c_lee:
In your case, you can find the local spread of BTSs using Ofcom's Sitefinder database - www.sitefinder.ofcom.org.uk - and one trick to see what BTS your phone is hitting for data is to open Google Maps with the GPS option turned off - "your location" is then that of the BTS you're downloading maps from.

If your operator's own map claims good coverage for your house, but in practice you don't have any, then it's ether a line of sight issue (something conductive between you and the antenna) or a terrain dip (sectors put out a roughly-horizontal beam, angled down a few degrees, so if you're above or below it because of your relative heights, you can be over the road from the thing and not get a signal). In modern houses, we've also seen issues with foil-backed cavity wall insulation acting like a Faraday cage and ruining your signal until you're near a window. Either way, phone the operator and let them know - coverage is only altered when someone tells them it's not as good as they think it is.

Just FYI, a femtocell uses your existing DSL ISP's connection for all the data, including voice packets, and simply routes them to the mobile operator's gateway IP address - so depending on your operator and service plan they may or may not be counted as airtime minutes/bytes. Voda does count them, however that's not the norm as you're in effect paying twice for the same megabyte (to your ISP and to Voda); but as so few people have femtos in the UK, nobody's grumbling enough to be heard.

any ideas ppls? any help would be greatly appreciated :) i love my X1i and would be horrified if i had to fork out another 1000AUD to get a new one

i just tried flashing the latest stock rom. flashes fine... and again the touch screen responds fine until the "tap the screen to set up your device" screen appears, until that appears, when the screen goes dim i can touch it and it goes bright again fine... but when that screen comes up it doesnt respon at all not even to turn the backlight on... AHHHHHHH help please :( i cannot even send this away to warranty as the phone has been flashed and has custom roms been used on it and custom spl

hi bludsuka i 've got the same problem mine no responsive at all tho i looked on my advanced config before i hard reset it back to factory settings and it was set at custom i tried to put it back to default but i couldnt change it with just the keyboard and buttons. Now im stuck on the damn wm6.1 screen too, im gutted i paid like £220 3 weeks ago and now i cant do anything with it. im stuck with what to do apart from send it to my nearest service center. i would send it back but i bought it off of ebay so i dont know how i stand with the warranty inlcuding the fact ive flashed it back to generic firmware and ive also got cracks in my case. im gona email SE now.. i'll let u know how i get on.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bludsuka:
Thanks heaps for your response, i also bough mine off ebay and have also flashed it many times. tho i have managed to restore a stock rom and the stock spl so i think i should be right for warranties.. only thing that could let me down is cracks in case they could say its been damaged by myself and make me pay for it. i sure hope not. let me no how u go. i emailed them and they have told me to hard reset which i have and they said to ring them... il wait to hear back from u before i reing them tho..

i dunno if my invoice will be ok for warranty either its a shipping invoice from DHL and doesnt have the IMEI no. on it anywhere as far as i can tell. i have emailed the ebay store i bought it off (personal Digital) to see if i can get a propper invoice but have had no response...

best of luck with yours. let me no what they say
