I posted this to HUKD:

http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/467978/htc-hero-orange-12-months-600min-50/

Works out at £350 for the 12 months, assuming the £50 QuidCo kicks in (mine tracked pretty quickly). However, you'd need to buy Orange Internet @£7.50 / month, too.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vadonald:
I thought it seemed about the cheapest way to get this phone.

My QuidCo has changed from Tracked to Validated - so its looking good so far :-)

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] djglenn1337:
Firstly I think Leo is visually impressive, and clearly when finished design will be the business. However for me its too buggy and my battery life has halfed from when I used smaberg's Touch X rom.

I do however really like windows 6.5 and its finger menu's, and would like to stick with it.

Can anyone tell me if Jacks / Itje's 6.5 roms are stable with a good battery life? Or please feel free to recommend your favourite 6.5 rom?

I have searched quite a bit so please don't instantly flame me.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nsane:
Valkyirie Firestorm Topaz 41

Has the new WM6.5 buttons and is built on Manila 2.1; very stable and fast.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] emuX:
I second Valkyrie

I've found itje's Leo roms to be pretty buggy. They do seem to be packed with eye candy and loads of excellent apps but when I have to pull the battery out of my phone a couple of times a day when it locks up I say no more.

I've found agent47's Valkyrie series to be pretty stable and workable for everyday use.

The most stable WM6.5 Leo rom I've found is NRGZ28's EnergyROM... but I don't think that has the latest WM6.5 'buttons' build yet, so it depends on what you want the most really: stability? the latest WM buttons? the latest toys?

I've found battery life to bad (by comparison to clean WM6.5) on all Leo builds - I daresay its doing loads more in the background. I'm actually using a clean WM6.5 (23049) build which has the latest buttons and have left Leo in favour of SPB Mobile Shell 3. :D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] djglenn1337:
Lol, I am actually running FireStorm_v3.2.41LEO.

I find that my phone battery dies after 1.5-2 days where as Touch X lasted 3-4 days.

This is by far my biggest gripe.

I also dont like the way "x" doesnt close apps...but I can live with this.

Plus the phone crashes over stupid things, like trying to delete all the non used locations out of the clock.

Tbh, I am looking for a non Leo version of win 6.5.

NRGZ28's EnergyROM could be a good first step.

edit: Wait...its Leo also, lol
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] emuX:
EnergyROM is released in 3 different builds: Standard 2.5 (Leo), Standard (Manila 2) and Titanium. The last of the three is the WM6.5 only version with NRGZ28's choice of additional apps cooked in (but no TF3D.) The first post in the EnergyROM thread does explain this. ;)

I think the EnergyROM is still WM6.5 build 23016 though, which means it won't have the latest WM layout, finger friendly buttons, etc.

I'm currently giving Christian's 'Clean' ROM a try... its WM6.5 (23049) with very little in the way of add-ons. Depending what you want this could be the ROM for you. Not noticed any bugs or issues so far (on my 3rd day with it.)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Neosoul:
I'm running Energy ROM and its great. I was on Valkyrie earlier upto the 3.2 version but then switched over to EnergyROM. Battery life in both ROMS is bad!.. :P

"X" does close applications if you configure it to. Go to Task Manager>>Button and configure !
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rrockstarr:
If you want a stable wm6.5 go for Christian's. And it is always built on the latest version of the os.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] msc125:
WildChilds 6.5roms are very stable and bug-free, totally dependable

he used to be on xda, but has now moved to

http://www.wcxxperia-nce.com/

definately worth checking his roms out, i used the latest one and found no bugs whatsoever, and it was quick also
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fusi:
OK im annoyed now - i flashed a new rom last month and it was beautiful up until last week ish when all my streaming apps just stopped working claiming that 'Not enough storage is available to complete this operation.' - i get this error message (or variations) in rss hub, windows media player, TCPMP, the streaming media app, youtube video just fails, and others. really starting to p*** me off now as i cant do anything with my phone >:(

i have over a gig free on the storage card and over 200mb free of internal flash - what the hell is going on!?

if anyone can shed some light on this i would be most grateful

cheers

fusi
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fusi:
ok well i give up :( forum searches have suggested the only 'fix' is to hard reset. lol that totally sucks :( i havent figured out whats causing it - one day it was working - the next it wasnt :( im gonna flash genesis tonight sod it so im banking on that clearing it out - hope this doesnt happen again :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pilgrim011:
Edit - nevermind.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Dunno what's going on, but maybe you needed to check your temp folders. I've found big files in \windows\temp before after streaming hulu and other videos.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Bruce Inman:
Get a memory management software like Memaid or Advacnced Config. and be sure everything except for PIE cahes to your storage card.

Then clean your system.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fusi:
Thanks for the suggestions guys - i re-flashed in the end but if it happens again ill do as you suggest - though im pretty sure i had loads of space free on the flash and sd as well as ram

cheers!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Are you sure the message was for storage memory and not just memory? You can run out of virtual program memory pretty easily on a lot of roms (just read the 6.5 thread in hacking), even if you have plenty of free ram.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fusi:
the message i got was exactly as is displayed in the topic of this thread - nice and vague isnt it ^^;

im pretty sure there were no memory issues of any kind on the device at the time of the problem - everything worked apart from streaming - pretty sure the OS got itself confused somehow - hohum!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Try creating a folder in \windows called "cache". Then see if junk appears there (it may require a reset to work). In sk tools, it shows \windows\cache as a junk directory, but I think you have to create the folder to see it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fusi:
thats quite an ingenious suggestion - if it happens again ill have a look and report the findings ^^;

cheers

fusi
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Don't get too excited yet, lol. Yesterday, I downloaded some youtube vids to main memory and then cut and paste them to my sd card. But the memory wasn't released for whatever reason, even though the files weren't showing up anymore. I deleted them with sk tools, but didn't think of making the cache folder til later. I haven't been able to replicate the un-released memory since then.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Ok, so I was messing around with youtube (watching Danger Island, lol). I found that if I opened total commander w/o closing youtube (used voice command), there are a bunch of temp files in the windows\youtube folder. There was a 3 MB .dat file and a 10 MB temp.3GP file. The latter was clearly the video. When I closed youtube, all the temp files disappeared. I suspect that something is going wonky with your temp files clearing out, or that watching big streaming vids dumps a massive file into main memory that gives the errors. The only way to find them is to look while the streaming app is running. (You can pause it, I'm sure).
[Touch HD General] Percifal:
Hey guys,

Ive been browsing the forums and did not find anything about this matter so i tried making a thread and see iif someone has same issue or can help me.

When i go to all contacts something happens with the number of the contact that doesnt show all eg isntead of apearing the whole 966435470 only appears 96643..... half number followed by dots.

Is tihs supose to happen or is it bug or some problem....

Ty in advance
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] infantilo:
Hi!

due i've been searching for such an application for years now (all the time i had an wm phone), i wonder, if there's any existing solutin or if this could be done anyway?

I've got supprised several time of what you crazy (an i really mean this in positive way) programmers are able to do!

this would be cool for many things:

- unlock device by facial detection

- identify objects from an database and display imformations (e.g. find a person in contacts)

- help people with alzheimer to idetify things/persons (my mother would have needed this)

- mixed v(irtual) r(erality) (display name of person on live-video image, but i doubt, it would be fast enough to do recignition in realtime)

- would be a great tool for professionals (if in "near" realtime to give infos about athlets to help reporters (think fraunhofer is working on something similar but never released something)

so, shure many will lough about my ideas, some will throw stones on me, but maybe some will find this idea worth thinking of twice.

Your's

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] XERO_Racer:
for those who "own" the retail final version of windows 7, when u try to run CustomRUU.exe or RadioRaphael.exe youll get an error either the 0xc00007b or something random that wont run the program, already tried to run it in compatibility mode but theres no go, its a compatibility issue with the program, i even tried running it in admin mode and nothing, troubleshooter says its not compatible, best thing to do is if u have a backup laptop or pc with XP, vista or any of the beta RC1 builds for windows 7 is to run it from there, until then hopefully someone will get a fix for this, this is just a little heads up for anyone that has the retail windows 7...

if u dont have this issue on win7 retail plz let us know, and also for those who knows a fix for it, would be great...

here are one of the fixes thanks to gmanfuzing and jtantley

By the way, heres a picture of the error if u ever do come across it...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Thresher:
I have had no issues with Windows 7 and flashing Roms. Thanks for the fixes to your particular issue though.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DJGonzo:
just rename the folder to something short and sweet...

yes i had that problem before once and it was a 30 second fix... but at least this is good for other people for reference.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] XERO_Racer:
confirmed to try the fix and theres no go, im guessing it has to do with ur build version of Win7? because i rename the folder to a short name (EX: ROM) and i still get the error btw Win7 version build is 7600...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pastorphil:
The only real fix

The only fix for this is to use a newer build or the full release of windows 7. I got the full retail version from Microsoft (I am certified so I get it early). It fixed my issues with this. So I would suggest wait a month buy the full version and you will be good to go.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] XERO_Racer:
ermm i do have the retail version of Win7, clearly 7600 IS the final version and is the OEM....
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] colin725:
I have had no problems flashing from 7100.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Sparkz914:
I thought Windows 7 came out 10/22/2009...So how do you guys have it?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] josbald1975:
i've got the RTM of Win7 and have an issue where the app will run and get my device to enter bootloader, but then it will not progress beyond 0%. anyone have similar issues? i had no problems for months on vista, so i'm betting the folder path length isn't the issue.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] paperWastage:
MSDNAA access through IEEE (i am a college student, unlike the rest of the people who pretend)... $15, got 10 Windows 7 Pro RTM (7600) keys... used/gave away 3, still have 7 left

best deal ever :)

// though you're supposed to only use MSDNAA for educational purposes and no commerical... think that applies to my current situation, so nothing wrong here

flashing CustomRUU through Win7 RC had no problems, haven't had the time to flash the latest EnergyROM on my W7 Pro RTM, maybe in a few weeks time when i'm not that busy
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] chaoscreater:
lol i'm an Uni student and i get the license free from MSDN lol :)

of course, there're custom versions out in forums if u know what i'm talking about, and it's amazing, Windows 7 is actually heck a lot better than Vista & XP combined, and i use a lot of custom XP and it's just amazing, no lag whatsoever, and my laptop sucks so it's a good thing.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] patrickrivard:
I'm trying out a new TP2-CDMA from Telus (Canada) and this is by far the best system I could ever try in my case. I've always been a GSM user (since 1994) mostly because it gives you the latitude of using what ever device you want just by inserting your SIM card. so I got the Phone Inserted my Rogers SIM in it and it got me on the Rogers network right away I then activated the phone on the Telus network and it is also working fine... of course...

But the best thing is that I set it on "Global" network and it stays on GSM (Rogers), and when I get to an area where there is no GSM signal it switches by it self to the CDMA (Telus) network!!! this is amazing! NO MORE DEAD SPOTS! Of course you need to have two Service contract from two different service provider, but if you absolutely need to get service in areas where your current provider does not offer any, well it sure beats the hell out of having two different cellphone in your pocket... I have set my main cell number to transfer to the other on "No Answer after X # rings" and I get all my calls no mater what network I'm on!

The only down side to this TP2-CDMA Unit is that Telus got rid of a bunch of stuff that is in the TP2-GSM... like the GPS for instance... Well I guess you can't have it all...

I got Bing to work... so there is a GPS.... but Google Maps won't work...

Just thought I'd share my joy...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] v8rumble:
there is a telus gps registry fix on pccgeeks.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] zedex26:
GPS works... i have google maps, tomtom7, and bing running fine, but sometimes, getting a lock can take very long

still new to winmo, so not too much going on with the phone, but am learning =b
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] patrickrivard:
zedex26, you are right!! there is a GPS!

The only thing is that I can't make Google Maps to work... it instals but when starting it it keeps on saying Loading... and never opens.

Anyway now were talking!! it has almost everything I was used to... But NO "Camera Flash" not that it was so usefull as camera flash but as a "FlashLite" it was...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] inspireqc:
in google map

go to menu -- option -- gps setting -- use manual com 4

go back in option select "use gps"

close

reset your device

should work
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] patrickrivard:
inspireqc,

I finally got GM to work... Don't know why but the device needed to be on the CDMA network in order for the program to load... because on the GSM network, the program does not even load... it keeps on saying "Loding" and I could not even access the program... It's like it does not see the data connection...

Anyway There are other maping SW that work very well on both network on that particular device.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] d-cloak:
I've found that I have to manually switch the data connection in order to use Google Maps when I switch between GSM and CDMA. It does work w/ both, however it's much better when I'm on Telus b/c this TP2 can't use Rogers 3G network. Keeping my fingers crossed for when they finally crack this baby open and hopefully find that the North American 3G freqs are there.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] golfman32:
I have both iGuidance 4 and Google Maps working, I am aware that some people have it working out of the box and some don't
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] julienrl:
Did you have to sim-unlock your phone first?

My friend looked up the technical specs of our chipset and they do support North American HSPA but it is not available, either by a hardware or firmware\software lock.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] leepriestenator:
WOW

GSM and CDMA both work... that's fantastic.

Does this mean that it hold 2 different SIM cards? Or is the CDMA part devoid of a SIM card?

Would it be possible to use a GSM SIM card from any provider around the world and reconfiure the CDMA part to work with any CDMA network around the world?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ai6908:
I have heard its a hardware lock! Wish someone can unlock it...;)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hiwiredjuice:
well i would think it would be a radio issue have the same with mine. use it strict on rogers. i also looked up a little but the tp2 telus is 800 and 1900mhz hspa and rogers system is 850 and 1900mhz hspa so the frequency may be a issue as well.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hiwiredjuice:
anyone know how to fix the caller id name problem while on gsm?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hbenz2008:
Canadian folks, or TP2 users in CA, i have a Sprint TP2 thAT i would like to get to work in CA, what is the best scenario for both voice and data,thanks a lot
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hiwiredjuice:
for sprint phone i would stick to telus or bell unless you can put a sim card in your phone then your looking at rogers and the cdma global phone wont work on 3g rogers just edge
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hbenz2008:
Thanks hiwire men, Sprint TP2 is a World phone as you know and will take any SIM, so you saying it wont get 3G with Rogers? why is that, is it Rogers or what is the reason? and hand how is Telus and Bell do it, they just input it in their database and bam, or will it require some ROM flashing. thxxx
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hiwiredjuice:
after reading up if you want 3g on rogers network you need a tilt 2 do to the fact rogers uses umts/wcdma 850/1900 mhz sprint is 900/1900 BUT the edge network will work on your sprint phone to rogers other then that it is it. rogers is doing alot of work on their 3g network and i think most of the fido network is 1900 mhz and rogers is 850mhz 3g but i think personally it may work in the future but not gonna be anytime soon. The 3g should work on telus and bell and might on fido ill have to see my friend and try it out. but i know for sure right now it dont work with rogers.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hbenz2008:
thank again, I do not have any FIDO preference, I assume coverage with Telus or Bell are about the same.So just walk the TP2 to the TELUS or Bell store and it is done?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hiwiredjuice:
thats right i would say telus since sprint is a partner
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hbenz2008:
Highwired, did u get a chance to try out TP2 on Fido? am still reading elsewhere that sPRINT tp2 can't get 3G in CA, WTH:D
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hiwiredjuice:
i have not tested on fido but after alot of reading i found that it wont work on the fido 3g as well it is a hardware problem with the antenna that wont let you get 3g on 850mhz
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] hbenz2008:
Thxx dude, hopefully in few months or a year it may change..
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] patrickrivard:
HSPA

Does anyone know if the HSPA frequency has been unlocked for the TP2 yet?

If not, I have Some money available to get this done. To me it is worth as much as getting a new phone so you can guess the amount...

Please only post replies if you can help achieve this request.

Thank you

The GPS is working, actually it works pretty well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] patrickrivard:
rick#2,

You are right, the GPS works.

I was trying it with Google Maps and could not make it work because GM does not seem to be able to get the data connection on the GSM network to load the maps and I thought it did not have the GPS but it does and all other Maps SW works on both GSM and CDMA, except GM that does only work on the CDMA network on this particular device...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jessiethe3rd:
I've been using the GSM connection for the TP2 down in the states and I stay purely CDMA up here in Canada. I'd like to say that HSPA works on the GSM network but no dice... unfortunately... don't know why.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rick#2:
Hopefully the 850/1900MHz bands that are possibly physically present on our Telus TP2s can be made available somewhere down the line. It's too bad they aren't up and running now, since I'm headed down to Mexico in a week and they are all 850/1900 down there for their UMTS network. :(

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ral34c:
Let me first apologize if this is a question which has been discussed at length in another area.

My company currently uses blackberrys with an enterprise exchange e-mail system (i suppose that is called BES with blackberrys, no?). Anyway, on my old blackberry, all I had to do was put in my corporate e-mail and an enterprise activation password. From there the setup would do the rest. Is there any way to get my new MyTouch phone to get hooked into the system the same way my blackberry was? Cost is irrelevant, I just want to find a solution.

I have looked at software options (i.e. touchdown, and the work email program) with no luck.

Thanks for any help the community could offer!
