[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] :
RC 2

- Today Items, Date, Messaging (sense disabled),

stable all day long memory usage 23%.

- My benchmarks grown 0,5 % compared to RC1

- usage battery like more stable at 51mA

(more seen, more times)

- No bugs found, or yet?

- Phone is faster, but did not react as before!!!??(Sometimes you wait unreasonably in a very small application that worked perfectly well in RC1)

p.s. I have tried every possible driver that can be found at xda and google but the best worked with Topaz driver.

I think if we can not continue to a new dialer (with small fotos) then it would be worthwhile to have new contacts if they could.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] MrRusch:
Well, my SOD Test 01 charged all night without SOD this morning. Fingers crossed I am not the only one :)

Could you give an example perhaps. There are really no changes to RC2 that should have any such affect, so seems very odd performance would be any different.

By "new contacts" you mean newer People tab? From experience I've learned that mixing manila versions will often take its toll on performance and stability, but I could definitly supply a CAB.

Install it tomorrow morning? :p Anyway I doubt installing it will affect anything, go ahead :) It's modifications which make changes to already cooked-in material that should be avoided, i.e. CHT and such.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Ronniebiggs:
Unfortunately, the SOD test "as-is" did not work for me, after flashing (doing hard reset after and such) I charged my phone and before it reached full charge it went into SOD... so bummer :)

After I installed Device Lock, and now after a night of charge, phone is still alive and kicking! So no SOD for me (as of yet) I will see what happens when I keep it on me w/o AC and without any change.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] MrRusch:
Interesting.. If someone could try the wifi regedit I mentioned also, I could put this idea to rest as well. Thanks!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] adiereeves:
SOD test 1

Yeah, sorry to report over night SOD! If it helps, I had all 3 standard alarms set (i sleep heavy!) for staggered times. I used to use Klaxon but was told that caused SOD so went back to using system alarms. Will try the lock cab tonight.

Some weird distortion on incoming call screen on landscape mode. I know you're not testing for those sorts of things but thought I'd mention it. Otherwise, this is pretty quick!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] :

- my error in sense

Sense is inappropriate launched from Windows with Total Commander (version b3 more frendly finger), and has worked in the background. Then I wanted to re-open the folder windows and waited and waited.

I told RC 2 is faster, but when did you get stuck, then he gets stuck.

Can you give us update Total Commander with the new version beta 3.

I have no SOD, possible not recharge overnight!!!?, But I have almost every morning, three alarms.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] _TB_TB_:
Yay, so it is good that my X1 never reaches 100% during overnight charge? ;-) ALWAYS stops at 98%, have to softreset to reach 100% :-)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Ronniebiggs:
I just got SODs while charging, not necessary at 100%. The lockcab posted by MrRusch works wonders for me though :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] duglas:
I dropped my Mytouch today and the glass spider cracked.. The touch part still works and the screen looks fine, just the outer glass is broken ( I Hope)..

Is this just a protection item and part of the case? Or is it part of the digitizer?

I looked on egay but did not see anything for it..

thanks.. I have to suffer with my Pro 2 now.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoustDark4Life:
I've seen it a little bit, but don't know what it is...

& is there a way to have a slide unlock like the iPhone? or some cool different screen locK?

THANKS!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:
Its part of the Clock Widgets from Hero or from Beautiful Widgets 2.0.1 (latest). And yes there is Lock 2.0 will give you the slide unlock but it's almost like you now have to unlocks to go though.. it's kinda stupid.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
i am 99% sure that the widget in the screen in weather widget - donate in the market. (the icons unless they have been changed in beautiful widgets are the give away.)

and yeah lock 2.0 is kind of well.... not really my taste
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:
Yeah beautiful widgets has a flip clock as well.:D
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
i know i have used both of them (when i used beautiful widgets the icons for the weather were different than the weather widget icons) :p personally i like weather widget bc of all the skins for it now in the themes section (manup and davidmartindale have made some amazing ones).
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoustDark4Life:
so the big clock widget at the top is... huh? does ne1 know the name of it so i can get it in the market?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
Wow really, did you not read any of the posts?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
somebody please slap this guy, the clock is the widget. it is called weather widget cause as you can see that it has weather in it
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoustDark4Life:
dude, theres like 13 weather widgets.....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Reverend Gridlock:
weather widget donate
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HoustDark4Life:
TyVM! (and slapping isn't nice)

no it may not be the nicest thing, but you have to admit it works when people will not pay what they owe lol.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] RussianSolja:
Would someone kindly make a youtube How-To video on how to (HARDSPL/Flash Rom) it would be greatly mean a lot to me and im sure for others. :-) thank you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] VizagDude:
You have so many posts on XDA, and you are still not sure how to HSPL your device???

In the HSPL sticky thread, the directions and instructions are crystal clear. I am not sure what else you want. It would be difficult for any one of us to re-install HSPL on our devices just for the sake of the video.

Please go through the instructions and then ask us specific questions if you have any doubts about it. If you are not clear on a word or a process (not the entire one), then ppl can guide you through it.

Once you HSPL your device, even my 2yr old can flash a ROM :)

Its that simple.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Ut0p1a:
LOL

Some people are not very good with reading instructions, and they are more of a visual type. I guess he is having a hard time following the instructions, and he was hoping a video of "How To.." would aid him better.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] RussianSolja:
Yes, It's not that i cant read, like you've said and im sure other's will agree with me that it is a lot easier for them to watch a How-To Video rather then read as you go along. i used to know how to HardSPL/Flash Rom's with my T-Mobile Dash. But I've been with Android for about a year now and forgot how to go about flashing and HardSPL'in my phone. So yes a video would be nice. i mean is it really that hard for someone to put a video camera on a trolley and record a video? lol. i would create a how-to video if i knew how to flash the TP2. lol. im here to learn just like everyone else is.:cool: Also i bought this phone without a contract so it cost me $600 bucks for the nifty gadget. it would suck to brick such a pricey phone. know what i mean?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Ut0p1a:
Me too

Oh, don't get me wrong. I too bought this phone unbrand, unlocked for $650, so I am afraid to brick the damn thing. I have Elfin, and I did a hard HSPL on that and it is currently running WM65. But with this new toy, and because the cooked rom is too buggy. I decided to wait until the official ROM from HTC.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Ut0p1a:
Here you go. This is for HTC Touch HD.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Blesseld:
I don't have my touch pro 2 yet, nor have I looked at anything to do with HSPL until I get it....which is in a day or 2, But is it the same as HSPL on TYTN 2/Kaiser? If so go to you tube... there are a bunch of how to HSPL's for it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] iceman4357:
hahahaahhaha, you need a video for 3 steps?

-Hookup phone to computer via USB and make sure activesync is running.

-install the CAB they give you to enable the automatic install

-run the hard-spl

http://thewingster.com/howflashtp2rom.aspx this is the how to flash a rom. but it's a pic guide. if it says images are missing just click the pause button and play again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Blesseld:
I can see how one could be confused... Just cause we may know it, doesn't mean someone else does. I train people on a CMS every day. and sure enough I get calls for the rest of the week going over everything they were taught. ...and we have an online manual. Just cause it makes perfect sense to many people... doesn't mean it will for everyone. Take a look at the average web user....

I will record a video over the weekend if I get my phone by tomorrrow, but post if you figure it out.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Temjin:
Ok a few basic questions if someone would be so kind! :) :

- Can Nandroid and more specifically creating a backup image of the phone only be done *after* rooting?

- Would any backup image therefore include the rooted "state" of the phone if reapplied?

- By rooting the phone does the warranty through Orange become invalid?

Ta,

~ Temjin
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kadison:
1. No, it can be done before.

2. Yes reapplying a rooted image will get you root

3. Don't know!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Temjin:
Hi Kadison,

In which case would you be so kind as to tell me how to create a backup image without rooting / point me in the right direction for more information please? :)

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kadison:
Go to Modaco's site, follow the instructions to the letter and you'll then be able to boot your phone into the recovery image, and perform a nandroid backup.

The backup will be stored on your SD card and can be moved to your PC.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Temjin:
Awesome, thanks :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martint235:
Hi another question from a different newbie. If I back up using Nandroid, apply another ROM (with wipe), does Nandroid then let me restore all my apps or will it restore the whole previous ROM?

Ta
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Temjin:
My understanding is Nandroid will restore whatever ROM it was used to generate a backup.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martint235:
Thanks for that. Another noobie question though, what happens to apps I've bought etc if I flash a new ROM?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chakkaradeep:
Hi All,

I would be missing it completely, but can we add custom Today Screen items in WM 6.5? Something like what Titanium does? I dont want to use Titanium, but just add extra items to Today screen.

Is there a way to do it?

Thanks,

Chaks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rajivshahi:
i think you are talking about something like HS++ or rltoday.... installing those things should work fine just make sure you tick the appropriate box in today item...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chakkaradeep:
Hi,

I want to create a new Today Screen item in the Windows Default Today screen like the Favorite People Plugin, but I dont want to use Titanium Plugin.

Is that possible?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Pocha_b:
Hi man,

have you finally find a solution, because i want to do the same but there is no Hello world app for that...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fredcatsmommy:
depending upon what version of manila you have, you could use TFDetacher (works with 2.1 but not 2.5). I use it to create a second today screen for my plugins, and have it set to a softkey to toggle between manila and the other today screen. I also use Second Today to have a third today screen that I have Weatherpanel as the only plugin; I use a hard key to toggle to it. Hope that helps.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Emexrulsier:
I too am looking for a similar solution. I tried Titanium mod and I don't like it I gave it two tries and both times resulted in a hard reset. The program itself is fine and feature rich it just isn't mature enough for liking and I kept hitting too many bugs which for me made it unusable.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Emexrulsier:
It ok I found one a little basic but works for my needs. I found it in the MS App store called "Home Screen Customizer" One thing I found straight away was the weather panel works for me first time. The titanium one always used to come back with either .net 3.5 message errors or state issues finding a certain url.

Also its quick and easy to just add my own apps to my own panel and remove default existing panels this all works on the fly without having to reboot or disable and reenable home screens.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bhloo:
Use Manila Today Page

I use Manila Today Page that added one more tab towards the end of the TF3D tabs.... Works wonders for me....:)

Hello i Have a (HTC clone NT901??). I had to do a Hard reset, and after that i can't access the storage card. I have included some pictures.

As you can see SKtools detect the card, but not Windows 6.1.

I have tried other Sd cards with no results.

Note that i did not have any SD-card in my phone when the picture with expansion slot "Not in use" was taken.

Maybe someone has a bright idea what the problem might be.

Forgive my english, i'm Swedish.

I'm sorry if this is not the right forum for this ,but i don't know where else i would put it.

regards/MickeF

Edit: I have included my registryfile if someone could look through it.

*SOLVED* Bad soldering in SD-SLOT. Now the card work like a charm.
[General Topics] cmstackar:
Check if the pins in the card reader are making contact with the SD card. I had the exact same problem with an iPAQ 210. I couldn't find any way to fix it, not hard resets or anything. Eventually the problem went away on its own(after a month or so). Hope yours eventually starts to work, sorry I couldn't be more help.
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
DisMountSdcard.exe???

I have looked in the windows directory an found a file called DisMountSdcard.exe

What is that? I have googled it but it did not find any answers. Someone?

I have looked in the registry to find if the exe loads but it don't.

It can't be deleted and says it is writeprotected.
[General Topics] skuliaxe:
Does the card work in another mobile or PC?

Might there be a problem with the partition or filesystem?

In windows desktop version hard drives are sometimes visible by programs but not windows. That suggest that the filesystem is currupt. Not shure how this works with flashcards and winmo.
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
Yes it works flawless in another original HTC phone and desktop computer.
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
Can somebody explain too me how it's possible for SKTools to see the card (only in SD information though), but not by WM 6.1.

I think it's the drivers ieg sdbus.dll or sdhc.dll, sdmemory.dll but i have tried to exchange them to others without results.
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
No one who can help me???
[General Topics] dushuai:
check the SD is well in other Mobile Phones,if well,just use some tool to format it?Really OK?I don`t have any idea,just try
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
New pictures

I have now tested my card in my son's Touch Viva (yes it works there) and i have attached the picture in SKtools. You can compare and maybe advice me what to do.

The first picture is with card in Viva, and second from card in my phone.
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
Dead forum??

Seems that no one is interested in this.:(
[General Topics] skuliaxe:
I just ran out of ideas.

If the card works in other computers or phones the card is ok.

If your phone can´t read ANY cards then the problem is your phone.

The next step is to find out if its a hardware or software problem.

It would be good to back up your phone and do a reinstall with a known good ROM. If that fails, then there is something wrong with your hardware. Have you tried cleaning the card slot?
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
I have cleaned the slot. One thing i don't understand is that SKtools detects the card in SD information as you can see here. If it was a hardware fault it wouldn't be detected att all.

[SD information]

Bus driver version 5.2

Slot 0

Host index 0,slot index 0

Inserted card Memory Card

Card type SD Memory

Interface mode 4 bit(s),Clock rate 25000000
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
have attached photo on the bad soldering at the sd-slot.
[General Topics] skuliaxe:
So are you 100% sure that´s the issue (ie. the soldering). If so, great news.
[General Topics] gtfalmi:
Well after i resolded the microsmall contacts it's working perfectly again. No problems att all with my 4gb SD-card.

Annoying though,but if you buy a chinese mobile maybe you can expect this.

Otherwise i love the phone. It has all the features i want and more, and is nice looking. Internal GPS,WIFI,3,2MP Camera etc.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Doughnut:
Hi guys,

before i goto sleep i usually call my partner, i plug the hands free in and speak away.

But the screen likes to randomly turn on and off, i believe it has to do something with the automatically on when not next to your ears...

Now this is great, but id rather not waste unnessecary battery life whilst chatting away...

Is there any sort of "tweak" for this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ohyeahar:
You're probably right. Your room with the lights out is probably playing tricks with your proximity sensor. My suggestion is to not apply any tweaks to disable the sensor because it is actually really useful. Next time you call with your headset, just manually press the power button to turn off the screen. This way your proximity sensor won't be able to tell your screen to turn on no matter what.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jonboy99:
Hi guys, just back to windows mobile after a long absence, still on 6.1 at the moment.

Is there a way to search for items in the calendar, without having to use outlook on the desktop pc? Say for example I knew it was Jill's birthday sometime in the next month - on outlook for windows on the desktop pc I could just search for 'jill' but on the PPC I can't find anyway but open every appt and look, which takes forever.

cheers

Jon
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lennier:
It seems to be relatively unknown (I only discovered it recently myself) that the standard Windows mobile Search function is fully featured and will search almost everything on the phone (or can be restricted to various categories such as Calendar, Contacts etc).

You'll find it under All Programs.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jonboy99:
*EDIT* ignore me - found it - 'search'! What a tool I am! :D

Cheers Lenier. I can only find 'windows live' under all programs. Google suggests some versions of search only come with windows mobile professional version, not the mobile phone version. Which version are you running, or is there somewhere else on the phone I could look for it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sepponearth:
Awesome, I didn't even know such a thing existed haha

I don't know what I'll use it for, but I'm glad I know it now.

Thanks for the tip!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shawndh:
Wow! I always thought that program was useless. I never thought to use it for something like that. LOL!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Temjin:
Bit of a basic question really for all the Orange users out there (and crossposted a little) but by rooting is the warranty on a contract phone invalidated?

Basically before doing any kind of flashing to new roms I want to backup (simple - incase anything goes wrong but also so I can "preserve" any warranty by going back to the original Orange state), but to backup using Nandroid you need to root first (correct?) - so my concern is if by the process of backing up you are breaking the warranty anyway...if it's worth it.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] CombinedEffort:
Not sure if you need to root to Nandriod Backup. I thought you just :

1) put the phone into recovery mode (power-off, hold 'back' and power-on)

2) did a fastboot boot cm-recovery.img

3) select backup from that menu.

TBH, the first thing I did was root my Orange phone and THEN started playing with ROMS, so I could be wrong.

A pristine (non-rooted) Orange ROM is available from Modaco's site if you need to revert. Also, rooting simply changes the ROM. I'm more woriied that's I've unlocked the phone!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Temjin:
Hello,

Yea this is all pretty new to me :p however it would indeed seem you don't have to root to do a backup (which is perfect). I just figured it's best getting a back up how it is now before *any* changes are made.

I don't know anything about doing a fastboot though, could you point me in the direction of a newbie guide or something? :P

Also I didn't know the original Orange ROM was avilable - that's very useful to know! Thanks! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] CombinedEffort:
Fastboot documented here

http://andblogs.net/fastboot/

Probably need to install the Andriod SDK, too:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/1.5_r3/index.html

SDK 1.6 is available, but I don't know if that causes any isses - I use 1.5.

Lots of good info on:

Good Luck!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Sulus1179:
Hi CombinedEffort

I've got an Orange Hero that is SIM & CID locked and as such I cannot download the official HTC ROM update. I have already nandroid backed up and rooted, but I not too sure about flashing new ROMS (ie. Modaco's). As you say you rooted then started playing with ROM's so hope you can answer a few questions.

-Did your Orange phone come from Orange direct and was SIM & CID locked?

-How have you unlocked your phone? Was it just a SIM unlock code, or have you managed to CID unlock too? (I've seen a thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=559806 about CID unlocking that requires you to make a serial debug cable - something I'm trying to avoid, but will to do if need be).

-Even if you haven't CID unlocked your phone, were you still able to flash custom ROMs, as long as you don't flash a new radio?

-Did you use the "update.zip" method to flash new ROMs?

Sorry for the number of questions, but hope you're able to answer them.

Can't wait to get rid of the stock ROM :)

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Temjin:
I was under the impression that the process of rooting thereby allowed you to use other ROMS such as the offical HTC ones - if this isn't the case I'm also very interested in more information! :P
