[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xtascy:
I've tried a bunch of things from the GPS tweaks provided in the sticky (To help reduce the lag) and also hard resetting twice. I'm still unable to fix onto a single satellite as google maps keeps saying "Seeking GPS Satellites (0)".

After hard resetting (both times) the first thing I did was turn on 'A-GPS' and than ran 'QuickGPS' to downloaded what was needed. Right after I'll open the HTC GPSTool' to open the port before opening up Google Maps to let it run for more than 10 minutes on both hard resets yet it is still unable to lock on to a satellite. Even with the GPS off google maps is unable to triangulate me to the right position (it's always off by two streets or so). It's just very frustrating and making me wonder if it's a hardware fault. The same thing occurred when I was using the stock TMO Rom. Also on 'GPSTest' it stays at "GPS Starting Up" with just all red bars and nothing moving but the numbers on the bottom.

I'm on a T-Mobile US Touch Pro 2 flashed with EnergyRom (Genesis) (23016). I've tried both 2.1 and 2.5 and Google maps just pinpoints me to the same location (two streets off).

Any help would be great as this is my first smart phone and first time introduced into the xda world and have liked the experience thus far.

Thank You! :)

Did the GPS work with the stock ROM?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xtascy:
No, the stock rom did the same thing my current rom is doing. It's just pointing to a location two streets away nor was it able to get any satellites. :l
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] acrh2:
I used these registry settings on my stock sprint.

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=78592

BTW, if I understand this correctly, you don't need to configure any ports or do anything special to use the internal gps. The only thing needed is to make sure that the location setting is turned on (the emergency locator option in Settings/Phone/[your network]/Location-Get settings.)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gehzumteufel:
So, with all the interest in getting Android on Windows Mobile phones, I am wondering what sort of thing it would take for the community to start a project for hacked booloaders to allow the direct booting of Android. If I remember correctly, the next thing would be to learn to write directly to the DOC chip to allow Android to be flashed to the device.

So, would we as a community be willing to set some sort of bounty to get this in motion?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Poke_N_PDA:
Hell yes! Let's make this happen. We need to get really organized in our effort to get android on WiMo phones.

Hi,

I found a strange bug in Facebook for Android app. Basically when I post a status update from the app it is visible on facebook but is absent for the RSS feed of status and from the newly launched Facebook Lite site as well. However if I use inbuilt functionality in Hero to post a status message it works fine and shows up everywhere. :confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] RemoteSojourner:
I thought this would have been fixed after yesterday's update but still no luck :(. I guess not too many people use Facebook Lite or Status feed to notice it.
[Touch HD Accessories] JHEAD:
Hi gents.

My HTC HD front speaker died.

I live in Brazil and HTC does not support this model yet.

Can you please send me any infos where I can buy a new speaker to my phone ?

Thank you
[Touch HD Accessories] namelessrabbit:
I think the HTC support is global. Just send a message to HTC and they will give you detailed information where to send your HD. Because a died speaker should be covered by warranty (if not destroyed by external force). So there is no need to spend money on a new speaker and risk to ruin the whole device ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tulip79:
Hi!

I have a strange problem with my new Touch Pro 2. It happens in the following situation:

1.) Playing music via the Touch Flo Music Tab with headphones inserted.

2.) While the music is still playing I switch off the display via the ON/OFF button.

3.) Problem: The music continues for 5-45 seconds, then it stops shortly, maybe it comes again for a few seconds, then it finally stops.

4.) When I switch on the display again, the SD card is gone. I cannot further play the song and in the settings menue I see the message "the sd card is not installed".

5.) Restarting the device brings back the SD card. (Problem can be reproduced by the steps 1-3.)

No further complaints with the SD card. Hardreset did not help. It does not happen when I use the Windows Media Player in the above setting. If I do not use the headphones, then this problem does not happen. With the TP2 the music does not continue via speakers, when you switch off the display, but when I switch on the display again, the card is still there in this scenario. Problem only occurrs with headphones inserted. So far I found no other TP2 user sharing the same problem :-(

Whats is better now? Upgrade rom with last update from htc.com

Or

Install MW 6.5 (if its works great)

Thank you.

This has already been discussed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ogrenator:
honestly....do both and see which one you like more....many ppl on here switch roms all the time...me being one of them...but if you just want a nice stable one the official ones are a safe bet....but you can get one you really enjoy if you play around with some of the 6.5 ones
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kidoucorp:
Hi all,

I'm having a big problem with my Diamond : I only can send SMS with 1.00.25.03 Radio, any other radio, I can't send any SMS, I get "Unable to send text message", and when I try to enter my Service Number, I get "Unable to retrieve informations" (Not the exact message as I can't remember, but it's something like this).

Any idea about that ? Do you think it's related to my diamond itself, or to my SIM card ? I can't test with another SIM right now :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] FenderGuy:
Is there anyway to save text and mms from a mytouch to the sd card or backup the info to load on a another Mytouch or a computer?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] cigar3tte:
Backup for Root Users have the option to backup SMS. Don't know about MMS though.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] FenderGuy:
This is for a stock mytouch that I need to get off some texts and photos attached to them
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] FenderGuy:
There is nothing on the market that will back up a stock mytouch? I need text threads backed up along with the photos in them
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] cigar3tte:
Don't think any FREE apps can do this.

Try MyBackup Pro, Save MMS, SMSVault.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] FenderGuy:
I think I am over this sh%%ty phone after nurmous attempts to get sprite on my pc and it saying it needs my usb drivers updated, i'm done with this phone. The Hero roms have issues and really are not meant for the lowend t-mobile phones. With the other phones that are coming, this phone is crap
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] st0kes:
Easy now. It's a great phone but in my own personal experience, it's not hero capable. Others will disagree but the laggyness of the Sense UI is too unbearable for me.

Why don't you use MyBackup from the Market, there is a trial version to decide if it works for you. You can back up your SMS to sd card or to their servers on the internet.

As for roms, I would avoid hero and try Dwang, RogersRom1.5, cyanogen, etc.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] bonesy:
Think about what you say.This phone isn't crap its a htc magic/sapphire NOT a HTC Hero! they are completely different phones
[G1 General] palosjr:
so i just reflashed my radio and spl in hopes of fixing a speaker problem on my phone, and while the re-flash didnt work, it did speed up the rom.

i flashed radio

i flashed spl

just booted back to the rom i had loaded. currently jacxhero1.8

significant increase in speed. not sure if this is due to the reboot itself or the reflash of these items, but it does seem alot faster than it normally is/would be after a reboot.
[G1 General] evilkorn:
Placebo...
[G1 General] nolimit78:
lol i like it
[G1 General] jmon777:
clean phone more likely. which is very nice :p
[G1 General] :
Did you flashing with Cyan's 1.4 recovery? When flashing the radio or SPL you need to physically press alt-s then home+back, don't touch the trackball at all.

Even if it did flash properly I don't see how it would increase speed, maybe it was due to the reboot clearing your swap?....
[G1 General] lbcoder:
Unless you wrote back something *different* than what was on there before, it will definitely have NO EFFECT at all. If the radio and spl you had on there wasn't written perfectly initially, it would be bricked, if it wasn't bricked, then replacing it would replace it with something that is precisely identical (except as noted above), which could therefore have no effect.

In other words, the only thing you did in reflashing the radio and spl (except considering possibility noted above) is risk bricking it (since EVERY write of radio or SPL could potentially fail and give you a brick).
[G1 General] palosjr:
would it cause problems if i flashed using the trackball?
[G1 General] :
I'm not sure if it's a safeguard or a coding error, but if you use the trackball to click reboot your phone will reboot as normal and the radio or SPL will not be applied.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pajamasam:
I have a rooted G1 and wondering how i can keep from uninstalling certain 3rd party apps. I have SUFBS installed and thought there was a way to do this within.

Thanks for your help!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
What exactly do you mean; you haven't given a scenario where they would be uninstalled, so from the information given, simply do not uninstall them, and they will stay on your phone.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pajamasam:
Pardon the lack of detail included in my first post. I want to have certain 3rd party apps behave as system apps, where you are unable to uninstall from the Manage Applications screen. I am thinking that moving these files to the system/apps folder would do the trick. But I've been unsuccessful using SUFSB.

So, to sum it up:

How can I remove the Uninstall option of a 3rd party app from the Manage Applications screen.

I hope there's enough info for some helpful answers.

Thanks to all!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
you can try in the recovery console

mount system
mv /system/sd/appname.apk (or whatever it is called) /system/app/
(if mv doesn't work try cp)

i do not know whether or not that will make them uninstallable or not, but it should do what you are asking about getting them into the /system partition.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pajamasam:
Thanks David! Worked like a charm :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
just don't put to much in /system bc if you do and you flash a rom or theme that puts extra stuff into system it coud result in the rom not loading and you getting a black screen

(like the problem i am having right now of trying to make a theme fit into the confines of the hard spl, i even set one of my phones back to rc-29 and re-rooted so i could test it, ugh... long night)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pajamasam:
Thanks once again for your educated response. I will keep that in mind for future use.

Best,

mark
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
no problem man, just remember if you need to delete anything from /system and don't have a file browser with root access you can do this in the recovery console

mount /system
rm /system/app/appname.apk
reboot
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
If you move them to system/app I don't think you'll recieve updates from the market.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david1171:
oh yeah i forgot about that. thanks adriank:)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madpest:
What if?

Hey guys, I noticed that the problem was solved, but I had a doubt. Will the app which has been moved to /system/apps still be there even if someone flashes another ROM?..

[General Questions and Answers] evilc:
I have a touch pro 2 running a 6.5 ROM and I am having issues getting activesync (Exchange) mail working over cellular connections.

I have set it up, all seems OK. I can surf web pages, though it is slow - HSDPA does not seem to come up much. I am in London on T-Mobile with a flat rate data plan (Web-n-walk).

Activesync mail does not sync over cellular. If I manually initiate a send/receive, it often does nothing, sometimes pops up a notification to say that connecting to the internet access point (general.t-mobile.co.uk) failed.

If I enable wifi (just regular wifi, not wifi activesync) and connect to my DSL connection, it all works fine - so I am 99% sure it is an cellular issue or an issue with my phone provider.

Can anyone give me any advice, T-Mobile customer support is getting me nowhere.

I think I've tried everything but can't get it to work.

I used Paragon Partition Manager 2009 on a windows XP pc and partitioned my 8GB card into fat32, 512MB ext3, and then 32MB linux swap in that order.

I am using the Modaco 2.3 ROM.

When I boot with the card inserted I get a constant reboot cycle (the little android in the letter "O" keeps being repeated). Then, when I remove the card and boot up without it, all my apps are gone.

I have retried this about 4 times and get the same result.

In Partition manager there are options for ext2, ext3, linux swap, linux swap2 but I don't know which to use. Also, should the partitions be primary or extended?

Please help!

Partition your SD directly from the menu! (500MB Ext2, 32MB Swap, remaining Fat32)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetgaz:
OK, thanks, KinkyGolab. I think it's working!

I now have 104MB free in my phone with lots of apps installed.

I flashed the recovery rom like you said so I now I use that one rather than the cyanogen recovery rom and partitioned the card from within the recovery console.

When I put the card back into my PC and examined it with Paragon partition manager I could see that the swap partition was described as "linux swap2" rather then simply "linux swap" that I had used before. Maybe that was the issue?

Anyway, I'm off to do some testing now.

Thanks again.

Hi guys!!

I'm really desperate.

Today I installed copilot 8, after a while the phone when goes in standby doesn't wake up anymore. When I press the menu button it remains down.

So I tried to reflash myhero 1.1.2 but in vain, and if I try to wipe I get the boot loop on hero logo.

The rotation doesn't work.

Please help me!!!!:confused:
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eViL D::
Format your ext partition, wipe and flash again.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ricardomega:
I use copilot 8 and the same ROM and I haven't that kind of issues on the full version of myhero v1.1.2! On a previous version on the 2.6.29 kernel when never I closed the copilot 8 the system crashed. Then I flashed the red's HTC kernel 2.6.27 and the issue never happened to me again. On this new version, the GPS is working fine for me! I just installed a fresh and clean ROM..

Do you deleted the save folder on the copilot 8, before re-installing the app or it was a fresh install? Is mandatory whenever you re-install the app.

When you install it, be sure you don't have this folder, no matter what is the situation!

Edit: I didn't read the second part of your issue.. Evil is right.. no other solution :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daeron666:
It was the first install!

It can be a kernel problem?

Evil, when I try to wipe it goes in loop with the hero logo, do you think that formatting will work?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daeron666:
I did it!

I also tried to change kernel with the three different versions but the problem is still alive!!!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daeron666:
Something new?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ricardomega:
I had this prob too.. after my micr sd card was set as damaged by the android sys and i wasn't able to start the device as well. But, the device was able to boot without the microsd card. Try it too. If so backup the information in your pc and format and remove the partitions of the microsd card (if you didn't do it before)!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daeron666:
I tried it, but the bug remains, I think it's something in the OS...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ricardomega:
My friend, the best solution is really to try it..install other rom, just for testing! ,,at least to have something to work on it.. step by step.. I use the same ROM, the newest version of copilot (and I previously was with olders ones without prob too), swapper, overclock, 2.6.29 red's kernel (without BFS), Engineered SPL, no radio changes, bla bla..

Gives a description of what is the state of your gear..

I already started to think that it can happen that some piece of hardware on the device is broken, but lets see.. no false alarms,,

Let's try to understand the status!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daeron666:
Of course! I have a 32a with no radio update, engineering spl 2010 and .29 kernel bfs. I Aldo tried without bfs but in vain.

The last thing left to do is trying another ROM....but there's a low level formatting method?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ricardomega:
If there is, it was never spoken here.. the only way I see the internal phone partitions formating is when applying a new room...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Amon_RA:
Remove the sdcard/copilot directory and reinstall copilot

OR

Format your SDcard and reinstall copilot
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ricardomega:
My friend, I think he tried that!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daeron666:
Yes of course, I tried that!

I also tried several roms, but nothing changes!

What can I do?

I'm really desperate.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ricardomega:
But without the copilot no issues, right? I'm using the copilot v8.0.0.328 kfc3.0 and you??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] daeron666:
Excuse me, I'll explain better:

The problem is ALWAYS, with or without copilot, with or without sd...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] ricardomega:
No need for excuses.. Man, "just" in my opinion.. you might have some broken hardware on your device.. I can't find any other answer. Flash back everything original like it should be and send it to warranty. There's SPL collections, there's original ROM's from HTC, etc etc..

I'm sorry.. I'm unable to help you.. Maybe someone has other idea, or something, but in opinion you a broken device..

Check the HTC site and see if it lists the dpi (dot per inch / dot pitch) of the screen... but a 72 dpi image should be fine, or use a larger size than 640x480.

As long as its the same aspect ratio it will scale nicely when cropped.
