Not possible. The ROM won't help you with it even if it was possible. It is a hardware limitation of the MSM7201A chips. The ones for the U.S. can not record 640x480 video and neither can the Tilt2 because of some patent infringement.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] markland_gta:
You can not load a ROM meant for some device on to another device. The ROM have all lot of stuff which is device specific. Trying to load a TP2 ROM on a TP device might even brick your phone.

As far as similarities go. TP2 is a WVGA vs TP which has VGA display.

Is there a way to have the image pop up bigger when the person calls?
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] sillysquid:
The only way Ive found to achieve this up tp know is use a third party application.

I'm using throttlelock at the moment (but there are a few apps that can do this) which is a pattern unlock application but has full screen caller id built in (freeware).

link to the xda dev thread for throttlelock

I have battery issues when it comes to net, but I don't want to keep it as always EDGE, otherwise I wasted my money on an xperia.

Instead, I want to keep 3G on, but turned off if no internet is used for more than I mins, but turns on when I go on the internet. Is this possible?

Hey..

I have the flip clock on my main home, but every time i lose wifi or turn it off it says forecast error and doesn't even show the clock at all. This is getting completely annoying and it stinks when i get it in car or leave the house my clock goes away along with my wifi connection lol. Is there any way to avoid this, or maybe another app that features a similar flip clock? Thanks!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
I got rid of this app for that reason. I live in one the 50 largest cities in the US with 3G and that app just sucked at getting me weather, and at times would have a time off from the phones clock.

I don't see the point of the flip clock, or any clock when the phone displays it in the upper right.

I used Desmondes paid Weather Forecaster, seems acurate and updates. I also use Weather Bug since its free and can show the temp on the status bar.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wii60:
With the introduction of the Motorola Droid next week, our G1 is about to lose its status as the flagship android device. As much as it pains me to admit it, the Droid has us beat in every way I can imagine. With the drama surrounding development these days, and the semi-stalled development of Hero and Blur (though our devs are still awesome and plugging away) drivers for Bluetooth, Wifi, and GPS across various ROMs. What do you think? Are we about to migrate to a new device as the standard? How long will we last here?

http://www.gsmarena.com/gsm_version_of_motorola_droid_spotted_in_the_wild_on_video-news-1217.php

This phone will most likely steal the Dream's thunder... but development on the dream is so far in that

as far as modding, devving, and customization goes... it will take the droid quite a bit of time to catch up with the dream
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wii60:
I'd like to think that people will unite around Android 2.0, and UIs like Hero and Motoblur will be relegated to widgets that can run on any framework. That would be great for the G1.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oraeanast:
Im right next to ya on that one. Hero has insane widgets, and motoblur.. well i haven't even tried it because it doesn't even seem enticing to me. If android 2.0 finds a way to collaborate all these feature... it would be.. The ultimate android build
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wii60:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wii60:
Bad news, no 1700 Mhz band. No 3G Droid for T-Mobile.

On the somewhat brighter side, The behold 2 has a confirmed Tegra chip in it. THAT will be nice. But no qwerty.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandenk:
I think there will be a big push for phones with bigger screens and faster specs which will leave the G1 in the dust. The difference with most of those other WinMo phones is that they were the best of the best for their generation, the G1 was the first and will quickly be replaced.

The G1 will always get ports and stuff, but look at the Hero ports to the G1, its VERY close in specs and still runs like crap compared to stock OS. True it will get better with new advances but it will always be playing catchup.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pinhead:
We are all flashing these ROMs, one after another, yet I have read little about security. How sure can we be that those who are making these ROMs are not adding a little something extra for themselves? Is it possible that this could happen without users knowing?

Please DO NOT make the assumption that I am trying to cast doubt on any of those who cook the ROMs we use, mostly without any compensation, as I appreciate their work as much as anyone here. I think that the question being asked is completely fair. I am asking because I do not yet have the technical ability to tell for myself nor would I know what someone who wanted to know would look for. Please keep this in mind if you choose to respond.

Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lorin.bute:
What makes you think HTC didnt add something extra? :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orb3000:
The fantastic ROM´s made by our great Chefs here at XDA are much better than any "official" ROM:cool:

I feel even safer with cooked ROM´s on my devices:D

Thank to this work (XDA, Chefs & Devs) is that WM is an enjoyable OS!

If not a lot of us would have moved to another platform...:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] neoavi7:
I also agree!!! Cooked ROMs are great to use......However you need to do some reading to have them as per your requirements. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] brynweb:
Good question

Actually, that's an interesting question and whilst I doubt there are any chefs contributing on XDA with the mindset of compromising any user's confidentiality, I have no doubt in my mind that it's possible for a dishonest individual to have a crack, so to speak.

Some time ago, an XDA contributer (chetstriker) wrote an application called 'Phone Creeper', which whilst having many useful functions for the user, also sparked some controversy for its trojan-style capabilities. Just to give an example, Phone Creeper could theoretically be 'cooked' into a ROM and used against the handset owner, without their knowledge.

I'm sure there are many more possibilities to compromise security, and as diligent members, we should research a ROM thread before flashing willy-nilly. It's quite easy to get a feel for any chef's credibility based on their history and following.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rajuabju:
I think that the short answer for you is... we dont REALLY know. Only a small percentage of people here understand the underlying details and complexities of a ROM.

So yes, theoretically, a chef cook put in 'stuff' which has evil uses.

But...

1) Almost all (if not all) chefs on XDA cook their ROM's because they love doing so. its not as if anyone is making any real money cooking these ROM's.

2) Its not as if phones could be used in some denial of service or mass spamming or whatever attack like drone computers. Maybe if you had THOUSANDS of phones, but in reality, the number of people installing these customs ROM's on their phones is a small fraction of the phone user population.

3) Most chefs care very deeply about the quality of their product. If anyone even so much as suspected something fishy going on, well, that would be the end of anyone using that ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] WillardZ:
The Surgeon General has determined that cooked ROMs do not cause cancer and no animals were injured in their development. :mad:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] beast0898:
As with anything there are allways risks involved.

It would not be difficult at all for a chef to cook spyware or worse into their roms.

It would be simple to compromise someones system in this manner and any amount of detail could be obtained by someone who wished to do so.

As with everything, your own due-dilligence and common sense come into play here. You download software all the time from the Net without knowing for sure if there is spyware or trojans embedded within that software.

If you are that concerned then I suggest that you clue yourself up on how the chefs cook and what to look for in the roms to identify these issues for yourself.

There are plenty of WinMo AV products that can help minimise the risks to your system being compromised and there are many steps you yourself can take. The first being to undertsnad the rom structure and the nature and working of WinMo.

Identify legitimate services and processes and have an understanding of the registry.

There are many "trusted" sources here in the forums but there is always a bad "apple" too (I like that pun.... Iphone is a good example of a bad apple :D)

Common sense always prevails, this is a community whereby we all share our knowledge and understanding of all things WinMo and HTC, read the forums, ask questions and gain your own knowledge therby making you capable of making your own judgements instead of asking others to make them for you;)

Cheers,

Beasty
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveShaw:
Another reassurance is that most chefs look at other chefs ROM's (especially the bigger more popular ROMs). If anyone on here, be it another chef, or a techy user trying to debug an issue, noticed anything untoward, that would be the end of the Chef on xda and anywhere else they posted.

Regards,

Dave

[Touch Diamond CDMA] fua1:
Hello, I'm a noob here, but all the searches about my problems often point to this forum, so I figured I'd ask.

Before I get bashed: I searched for this problem, but all the solutions seem to involve a PC connection, which is impossible on my phone due to a car charger mishap.

I tried relocking my phone with the shipped ROM, via Internal Storage route (Uploaded the .nbh file, went into triggered bootloader, etc.)

However, the phone gives me a "Upgrade ROM code error" and is stuck in bootloader screen.

Hard reset doesn't help. Going into triggered bootloader makes the phone hang (it just says "Loading...").

Please let me know if any one has suggestions on dealing with this.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] jaredakelly:
just like the title says. i can't stand the default hero keyboard anymore. yes i've tried to calibrate and it drives me crazy. i'm looking to get the normal android keyboard.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] erasmogjr:
GOOD GOD!!! Why would you want that thing on your phone?!?! lol To each his own, but have you tried better keyboard or touchpal they are very good, I like them both more than the HTC_IME. I can see why you might want the regular keyboard though wish I could help more. Having you tried pulling the apk out of a standard android rom and just installing, couldnt hurt to try right?

disclaimer: if you try and it hurts, I am sorry but not responsible ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jaredakelly:
haha. yeah i've tried better keyboard and it's not really that much better. good call on the touchpal, i've had success with there winmo keyboard so i'll try that. if that isn't to my liking how would i pull out the apk from a standard android rom or can you at least point me to the right direction?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] erasmogjr:
Try the dream forum go to Google and search xda Dev dream and it should be the first result. Then download a custom rom and unzip the file and you will have to look through I can't remember the location, unless someone would like to chime in with some help. Then put the apk if its in that form on your sd and click on it from the phone using a file manager from the market, Linda works great. Not sure if its that easy just giving you ideas of where to start. Beware that most custom dream roms replace the standard keyboard with htcime. Hope I helped a little.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jaredakelly:
ok awesome thanks! i'll give that a try. also do you have any idea why touchpal is not in market?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] @ngel:
I think that the best keyboard out there is the HTC "Compact QWERTY" that ships with the Hero. Lighting fast.

hi all

I've heard that Leo can play FM Radio without headphone work as an antenna? I wonder at it?

Is there anyone can confirm that..:confused:..

Thanks!
[HD2 General] B3ler3fonte:
Negative m8, Leo's FM Radio needs enclosed earphones handset to operate as an antenna.
[HD2 General] fresh-popcorn:
I would love the day the manufacturers could put in a antenna to allow use of the FM radio without putting in a headset.

I hate using a wired headset.
[HD2 General] cobnut:
Try one of these, no need for headphones and a bit cheaper! :p

http://www.morgan111morgan.com/port...adios-64/jwin-am-fm-mini-radio-jxm6-3718.html

Its a phone ffs, lol

Mind you they are getting bigger, so one day you could have a £500 fm radio with built in antenna. :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] nghj:
i dont think its as easy as just putting radio antennas inside a body of a phone.

one might have to think about interference to/from the phone antenna, wifi antenna, bluetooth antenna, gps antenna and any other antennas already present in the phone.
[HD2 General] Sc4Freak:
I don't think it's even physically possible to make an antenna small enough to fit in a phone which is sensitive enough to receive low-frequency signals like radio.
[HD2 General] wonsanim:
Thanks B3ler3fonte for the info.
[HD2 General] mrkyo:
thank you, guys!

anyway I totally dont like every time taking the headphone follow me..:(

still hope one day Leo could..:)
[HD2 General] mrkyo:
Mmm..I dont know how to say but I just heard that from someone. They said Leo could play FM Radio without headphone in new coming Rom update. Any Mods here knows it?
[HD2 General] gatling:
It is not a bad ROM, it is because of radio-frequencies all need antennas that fit their special wavelength to work.

If you use radiowaves you can use antennas that are only half or a quarter of the wavelength, so 10cm waves need 2,5 cm or 5 cm antennas.

Radiowaves in FM are about 4 m wavelength, so you need 1 m antenna!

[HD2 General] dgtel2:
i don't bother the built-in FM radio. Try use WunderRadio. Internet-based radio. Of course you need unlimited data plan for this to work.
[HD2 General] MerLinh:
Some walkman phones have built in fm antennas like w960, and some cheap chinese phones too, i don't remembor which one though, i read their test on mobilearena long time ago, so if it is possible.
[HD2 General] creed:
That's great, except when you are on the move and lose data coverage which is exactly what makes the FM radio useful.
[HD2 General] amdlite2:
I just had the july 8 nrg rom in and the fm tuner would open & receive a few channels with NO wired headset plugged in & played it though the speaker..

I want to know if the fm tuner capabilities are based on the rom in general or a specific "fm tuner driver"

Currently on kumars 2.4.1 and of course the fm wont open without a wired headset plugged in : (
[HD2 General] jirkab:
Here's the application, but no antenna, no signal...
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
Its usually down to the length of the radio wave, FM is around 3 metres, and a half length antenna would be 1.5 metres. The wired headset isn't quite this length, but it becomes impractical to get a 'perfect' length as the best FM antennas are straight cords, rather than coiled.

If an FM antenna was added to the HD2, and was straight, it would be max of 12cm, not very long and pretty much useless. If it was coiled, it would create a magnetic interference, a major issue for the rest of the on-board radios.

So after getting back up and running thanks to numerous members of this forum, I re-downloaded all my apps, and everythings good except for two of my most-used apps: Facebook and Pandora. My phone is telling me that both are installed, but they're nowhere to be found. The Market app has "OPEN" and "UNINSTALL" on the bottom of the page, but both are greyed out and I cannot select either choice. There are no folders on my SDCard for either app, and I can't uninstall them as they don't appear anywhere on my phone. Also, I can't install them because the market app is reading them on my phone.
