I used the original HTC OEM multi adapter with my 3.5mm RCA cable after prying it open and cutting the blue cable, which enables Tv out on my Tilt 2, but disables headphone use which is why im putting a switch in there. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dahauss:
well, I purchased the USB to video output cable and it workd fine.. HOWEVER only certain program work.. for instance, I wanted to see if I could watch sprint TV using the TV out and it tells me it can not run wth tv out. is there any way to do this??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mossesman:
Do a search on PPCGeeks.com forums for "How did you get the tv out/video out to work on the touch pro 2." I had to remove/cut the blue wire from the multi-adapter which came w/ my TP2. Hook up a standard 3.5mm jack to composite cable that came with my camcorder. Then I was able to get audio and video working on my 47" TV. No other software was required. The only thing is, you have to swap the yellow cable with the red. Red now provides the video signal. Otherwise, everything else works great.

Credit goes to the original poster in PPCGeeks.com. I would have provided a link to the instructions, but since I'm still new on this site, my posting privileges are still limited. Good luck everyone. I hope this was the answer you were looking for.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dahauss:
What are we all talking about? on my TP2 (SPRINT) I bought a cable for video and audio output that has USB on one end and RCA plugs on the other end. I just plug it into the USB port of the TP2 and hook up the RCA to my TV. It also has a port for plugging in the charger while the video out cable is plugged it...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mossesman:
This is another option for those who do not wish to purchase the $20 - $25 USB to composite cables for the video outputs. Most of us received the USB multi-port device with our TP2. But by just cutting the blue wire from that device, you can have video output with a standard 3.5mm to composite cable (Red, white, yellow). Some of us may have this cable lying around the house. It usually comes with camcorders. If not, many places sell these standard cables for about $2 to $5. It's just information for those who wish to spend as little money as possible. That's all. :) Good luck.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pythonjosh:
All the video cables I find have the regular mini usb data cable port and not the different HTC mini usb port. Are there video cables with the HTC usb port?

To clarify, the part that plugs into the phone is the HTC plug, but the plug for the charger midway down the cable is the plug I'm referring to. Where can I find one with the HTC usb plug instead of the mini usb?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] exmeaguy:
I cannot find a USB to composite cable anywhere on the net. I don't think that it would even work with the TP2 video out capabilities.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jmbneaf:
I can confirm that cutting the blue wire works!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] exmeaguy:
This is not a composite cable. A composite cable has three separate wires for video (blue, red, green). The cable on the link is the standard HTC tv out cable.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] InRBigness:
I am not sure if a true composite cable is even made from USB port. My assumption, which may be wrong was that they were refering to RCA cables. If you had composite video (RGB) where are you getting you audio from? At that point it is much more likely that you would need a USB to HDMI cable. That being said.... whey? If you are really worried about video quality coming from your phone... I think you need to get a blueray player. ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] BASSMANBOB:
Last time I checked Blu-Ray wasn't hand-held...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] exmeaguy:
There's a thread over on PPCGeeks where the OP said they bought a USB to composite cable and it works fine. I do not see how this will work coming from the phone nor have I been able to find that cable on the net. If it does exist, and if it does work, I will take this over a RCA anytime if it provides better quality.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dwboston:
I bought the HTC TV out cable and it seems to work fine with my Tilt2 running the stock ROM. I plug the cable in and the phone automatically launches the TV out application and asks which which application I want to send to the TV, and gives me a choice of Youtube, pictures & videos, and one other app. The first time it prompted me to choose NTSC or PAL output. Seems to work pretty well - I don't know how much I'll use it but it's pretty cool.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] adoute:
That IS a composite cable. A COMPONENT cable has separate RGB connections. The TP2 only supports a composite video out. Composite can be easily adpated so SVIDEO, however, the quality will not be improved by the adpater.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fg:
Composite is combined video signals, single RCA video or S-Video

Component is seperate RGB video signals, eg - 3 RCA for video

i did try to use regular AV cables before but failed to make it work. I think you really have to buy the OEM AV cables to get that function working.

htc devices dont support component. it only has 1 pin out for video. it shares that pin in for microphone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] el_venga:
i have cutted the blue wire inside the htc adapter and connected a 4 pin A/V cable. i get black and white with image tottaly distorted. could it be the cable? i dont have any other device to test now, i had done this with original TP but not same A/V cable, i had a generic ipod a/v before and now is just a standard generic cable.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seeker14491:
I own both the SanDisk 1GB microsd card and the SanDisk 2GB microsd card, and I wanted to know which is faster, or if there is someway I could test their speeds. I am currently using the 2GB card, but I don't need that much space, as I have no movies or pictures because my g1 camera is broken.So I was wondering if I should instead use my 1GB card. I have heard that having a faster card is better. Or does this apply more to Hero roms? I have JACxrom installed. Also, what exactly does swapper do? What does it speed up? Does it slow anything down? Is it even a good Idea to use swapper if I don't have an SDHC card? What setting do you recomend for a slower card like mine?

Sorry for so many Q's:p

Thanks in advance
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xidominicanoix:
You can check what class they are. Look for a number within a 'C'. The higher the number, the faster the card.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmon777:
well both your cards are the same speed. they are just basic sd cards until you get to 4gb or above is when you get classes 2,4,6. the cards you have are not ideal for swap or a2sd because they have slower read write speeds. but size does not matter.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seeker14491:

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Icedvoco:
Hello guys, let me start by saying im a total noob when it comes to the ppc :)

I recently purchased a HTC Magician to use as a work phone, i use a bluetooth headset a lot so it was a good option for a work phone. After i purchased it i decided to install the latest rom by Cotulla, rom HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O4. It looks great, i like it alot, but the only problem i have is that i cant use my bluetooth headset reliably.

Its connected ok and does not drop out, but the problem is i cant hear people properly through the bluetooth headset, and im told they cant hear me either, its possible to hear that someone is speaking but not possible to understand what is being said.

After sifting through the threads here for days in the hope to find a solution, i could not find one and decided it might be wiser to just go back to wm 2003 se, which i hope has no problems with the bluetooth headset. Unfortunatly ive hit a brick wall with this option aswell, as it would seem all the threads ive looked at seem to point to links that are no longer available. So this leaves me with a phone that isnt able to be used for what i wanted it for :(

As i said at the start, i am a noob here so if im missing something here that i could do to solve this problem, could someone please point me in the right direction ?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] luifriedl:
Your headset is OK????

Hi!

I also use Cotullas latest ROM and i am also using my BT Headset without any problems and no "secret" settings.

Did you check your headset with a different phone? Maybe that´s the problem!

Cheers

Lui
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Icedvoco:
Yea i used the bt hs on a dopod 838 pro, when i got the magician, i switched it from my dopod to the magician so i could use it for work. So i know the bt hs isnt causing the problem. And as ive seen some posts here about issues with bt and the Cotullas roms as being known problems, i naturally assume its the rom. But if its something else, then im all ears.

Just wont to get it working so i can use the phone with the bt hs.

As the imate site is down, and it sounds like imate might be going out of business due to some fraud problems. I cant seem to locate a rom with wm 2003 se, so i can try it to confirm if its the Cotulla rom, or something else.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Icedvoco:
Well im now trying t-mobile wm 2003 se, and so far the bt hs seems to be working great.

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] rhedgehog:
it would be nice....but in the meantime, there is an app in the market called aps organizer. you can assign different apps to different labels (and create your own labels), and then you can put shortcuts to those labels on your homescreen.

That way you get the folders (sort of) on your homescreen and don;t need to use the main menu. I think ive used the main menu about twice in the two weeks i've had it installed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] spamianspoon:
Given that the market is already split into categories I don't understand why this isn't implemented in the App menu. It IS quite annoying. Also, given that the market already has a categorization couldn't someone develop an app that Auto-sorts the menu. Gnome on Linux does a very good job of this, don't know about KDE...

This is one of my biggest gripes with my Hero. I'm a bit OCD when it comes to organization on my phone and computer. The sooner I can organize the programs more efficiently, the better! I'd really appreciate an app, update or custom ROM that could enable this.

I've installed a lot of programs on my SD card for my Rhodium Touch Pro 2 (RHOD400 so sadly still 6.1 until a HardSPL or the update from HTC for 6.5 comes out :(

Is there a way to, say, create a folder that would display in the Manilla All Programs section for Games, etc so I don't have to scroll through the whole list or tell a friend if what they are asking about is a game or not?

I went into /windows/start menu/programs and see it already has a folder called Games but Manilla isn't displaying it...

Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] prjkthack:
If you are talking about the All Programs softkey through the Touch Flo/Manila interface, there is no way to put folders into it. Its supposed to simply list your applications in alpha order.

I'm unaware if there are any hacks/tweaks that can change it, but that's the way HTC built it. I suppose they weren't expecting anyone to have so many applications. Haha.

Organizing applications

Hi. You can organize applications in your Start Menu!!!

First download and install Total Commander from links below:

install with activesync:

http://ghisler.fileburst.com/ce/tcmdpocketarm.exe

install from phone: http://ghisler.fileburst.com/ce/tcmdpocketarm.cab

Now you have this application in your start menu

Start the application and go to the folder: \Windows\Start Menu\Programs

Create the folders needed and move (or cut/paste) your shortcuts to the folders as you like...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
@6sto - The original poster seems to be aware of how to edit the "\windows\start menu\programs\games\" directory. He appears to be asking about how to get this directory link to show up in the HTC Start Menu rather than the original Windows Mobile Start Menu.

@ijustwantthedownload - What you're asking for never occurred to me. But it's actually a pretty good idea. But as prjkthack suggested, there's no easy way to do it. But fortunately, I came up with something that just may be exactly what you're looking for.

(You'll need a registry editor for this)

1. Do what 6sto said. Basically, organize your Games links into the "\windows\start menu\programs\games\" directory.

2. Browse to "HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\" in your registry. The numbered folders here correspond to slots on your HTC Start Menu. 0 is the top right slot, 1 is the one the right of that, and so forth. Pick a folder that corresponds to an empty slot.

3. Edit the following keys:

DispName: Games

Path:\windows\start menu\programs\games\

Check out the results:

Note: I installed this 4 Columns mod. But it'll work without it as well.
