newb question, hopefully topic-related

so what's causing verizon's shortage/out of stock situation? is it a 6.5 update? or is it purely just a lack of sustainable inventory? im up for either the TP2 or Imagio...prefer the TP2, but if it's a lost cause, i need to move on

thanks,

nadz
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] dezoris:
Verizon never planned on this being a high volume phone and ordered quantities to reflect that and are ordering based on demand.

The main warehouse that ships them only had around 600 at launch if that gives you any idea.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] nad3ooo:
ah ok, makes sense

thanks, im glad to hear that...glad it's not a run of bad phones or anything

just curious- where do you get such specific information? out of all the CSRs i've talked to, no one could land me anywhere near an answer like that.

thanks again,

you guys will have to keep us posted on if you actually receive the phone or not. i will probably be extremely pissed if you do though honestly since i have had a pending order since 10/16 that has yet to be filled. i feel like they should fulfill existing orders before they sell more to everyone else. i was working with a rep that said she was going to help me out since she had just helped someone else secure one and i won't be very happy if she let me down. cause i stopped calling because she said she was going to take care of it for me. i think she comes in at 7am so i'll give her a call on my way to school to see what's going on. i had heard 10/29 was a rumored restock date (came along with the 10/15 rumor that turned out to be true) so maybe there was some truth in that too but 80? i'm sorry but for a company that large, 80 is a completely unacceptable amount. i'm almost tired of waiting but i don't really want the Droid and the Imagio is keyboardless.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] helirob:
I got mine, but I did start my order before yours.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mobley:
recieved mine @ 11:30 am the morning after i ordered (overnite shipping)

out of stock again

i just tried to order mine, once again out of stock...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] RKnight1983:
I just ordered my TP@ today @ 3:00PM from a San Francisco Store (I am in Michigan), and they had 300 in stock and 180 accounted for. just a heads up. I am receiving my device tomarow morning. I have had enough with my Imagio.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] nad3ooo:
still nothing for me

im working through the business folks at vzw...still nothing for me, considering the imagiooo still, might wait and check the droid out, but i would take a tp2 if they offered it to me...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] guapo131:
Looks like these are back in stock online. (as of 10:35 pm eastern time on 11-3-09)

I recently updated my ROM and realized that I lost all my Sticky widget notes... I did a Nandroid backup before updating, is there a way to extract just the Sticky notes from the nandroid file? Or even if i can just read them that would be great.

Anyone??

Please help!!!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
80? Why are they getting such small shipments? This makes no sense.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] Apt2l:
I searched the forum for this issue but could not find it anywhere. From yesterday my bluetooth light is turned on (its continuous, not blinking) by itself even when the bluetooth is off. It remains on even when I turn off the device. I tried soft booting the device several times but that didnt help.

I would really appreciate if anyone could help me with a solution for this problem.

Thanks.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] abelrhd:
Hi dutty!

Thanks for the magnific ROM. It's perfect!!

Best reguards.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] veehexx:
just fyi: im not dutty, just an avid follower :)

i couldnt care about what version it's built on, aslong as it's fast, bug free, and runs manila 2.5/2.6
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] abelrhd:
Hi! Thanks but I know who is dutty:D. It was for give a congratulations for a Dutty.

Best reguards!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] veehexx:
sorry - i mis-understood! :D

i've finally got a download slot so downloading and flashing now! :)

im not sure if it's dutty, or the release builds - dutty is about the only roms i've found fast enough to be 'acceptible' in performance terms. tempted to go and try the latest miri rom to compare....

i've always fround miri roms to be more feature-filled, but dutty to be more bug-free and speedy!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] roby3475:
nice rom...

good application but i prefer the big icon down as os up 2308x

could u cook a rom with newer kernel?

Twitter doesn't work out of the box...

1) Won't sign in first time over 3G. You need to setup wifi.

2) Doesn't refresh unless a connection is already established.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jakari:
Ooo iv not used many of duttys roms but i think i will give this one a try
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Couldn't agree with you more my friend. I loved Dutty's Roms but haven't used them for quite some time. As soon as he begins using the 23xxx version of WM, I'll be the first one to download and test ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
it works for me!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mh7:
what is the manilla R.# ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Ston:
Okay, this looks like its related to T-Mobile UK's Internet Proxy that gets setup in the connections settings. If I uncheck that and try again it works.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
I think with Dutty having a new toy to play with he may not be concentrating enough on the latest builds available for the HD, still its a good rom as always!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] SatScan:
Now Dutty is not posting anymore overhere can you close this thread=

Hi bro,

I have a small question?

Why threads like this aren't closed as Dutty doesn't introduce roms at XDA anymore, so what's the reason?

Do these threads have any benefit to XDA?

Grtz,
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gigaboss:
It's not forbidden to open a thread about Throy's ROMs, we are free to talk about whatever we want, as long as we respect the fact that Throy doesn't want to post any link here.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Whole point of XDA is to communicate, share, develop. If there is nowhere to discuss Throys roms on XDA, then his following may leave and go to HTCPedia permanently. I'm allowing these threads so users can discuss their issues on XDA
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
why does this bothers you? ohhh...i know why....;)

anyway it is good for the rest of us that are here, at xda, to know when some new (and sometimes better) ROM is out in "other" forums.

you have no idea how ridiculous you are!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tunppi:
tried That dutty R7 but returned to wm6.1 Topix 3.0.2 because of speed, stability.

Those 6.5 roms arent fast enough at least with manila yet.

also 6.5 calendar is worse because it doesnt have all those customizations like wm 6.1 calendar does.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MrKaon:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Gio512:
Oh sorry, I didn't know it. So I'll delete the thread too. Excuse me again.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] speed200:
No need, just found a cab for it.:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kieboy:
It does have every customization found in 6.1 you just have to set it using start then calendar. Adjusting using manila is limited, but once you set it up it looks better and performs the same.

I admit 6.1 is still fast Dutty's 6.1 4.3 but the new features of manila 6.5 is really hard to ignore...at least for me. R7 is very acceptable.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] SaP1:
problem: the device didn't play the alarm. I can't turn on the phone and then it freezed. the wifi was on when i went to sleep.

(sorry for my english)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
When I was flashing Dutty's Roms, the alarm almost never worked properly unless the reminder tone was set the same as the alarm tone. Not sure if this is still the case but you might give it a try. Also you can install G-alarm as it worked flawlessly for me on Dutty's Roms.

The lockups/freezes seem to be a common occurrence with these HTC Sense Roms. Although they are happening less for me with the latest releases from the chefs. A soft reset should resolve most freezes.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jigners:
never had problem with the alarm, this was the first thing i tested right after HR, set it in manila not in windows.

(SOLUTION) adding "My Location" in weather tab

if your city or town doesn't appear when you click add location, use this application; (i found this in the Rhodium theme and apps forum)

http://www.4shared.com/file/14513120...Editor_12.html

download and install the cab to your device (blackstone) ;)

then go here: ;)

http://www.accuweather.com/world-ind...K|UK814|Baglan

that is for IN MY CASE as this is my Town (actual location).

run the WeatherDataBaseEditor 1.2 on your phone go to your country - click edit - cities -edit - add cities (this way you can add your town or actual location if this shows on the accuweather website similar to the one above). Add the "accuweather code" of your City/Town using the last few entries in the accuweather website (as in my case above its - EUR|UK|UK814|Baglan.

using Total Commander, search for this manila file in windows directory, "2330fc3c_manila" tap and hold, click properties, on attributes, tick Read Only, Archive and System.

soft reset

now when you go back to the weather tab, YOU CAN NOW ADD YOUR LOCATION and at the same time you don't need to turn wifi on, instead you can update via 3G or GPRS.

:D

SMS text size

I am quite happy with this Rom this is the first Rom I might stay with. :)

Is there any way to change the SMS text size?

In other ROMs I used mUn ZoomMessagingExtension

this does not seem to work here.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks!

GREAT ROM THE BEST for me..

ps= BUG =>>> in the muisc tab on manila.. when i try to increase the volume... it don't works..
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bzpwhx:
Bugs?

Hello, I don't want put my finger just on bugs because it's a very cool rom and we are here to test it not to blame on it.

Anyway the testing process isn't free of issues.

1) PhoneKeypad insert numbers instead of letters when: you want to reply to an incoming sms and before finishing to write your message you want to go to manila's home and after want to continue writing your reply.

2) hitting "speaker" for an incoming call will active the "pause conversation"

3) trying to add an image to footsteps (save to footsteps or just add from the relative tab) will not add anything.

best regards

alex

Bug in emailsettings

Could it be that there is a bug with email configuration?

I wanted to set up a custom Imap Account.

But the problem ist that the username is always changed to the beginning of the email address.

If the email address is "test123@xda-developers.com" it uses "test123" as username ... not the username i typed in.

Furthermore it doesnt save specialchars in the field "Your name".

Perhaps u could help me.

The rest of the Rom is really great!

Thanks subby-
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] burnet666:
i ve got the same problem with custom email account
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jeff_roey:
Okay, I have an Imagio (please don't judge me :)) and like many of you TP2 owners, the only real complaint I have about the phone is the battery life.

For me, I rely heavily on the device as a phone first (no big surprise, right?), email second, and then text and internet. Based on how I use my phone, I think the biggest contributor to my quick battery drain is the fact I have to leave my data connection 'on' to auto send/receive email.

I'm interested to know if there's a tweak or something out there that would allow me to leave my data 'off', automatically turn it 'on' to send/receive email at my specified interval, and then turn it 'off' again once completed. I know I could do that manually but was curious if there's something out there that could run in the background.

Also, thinking about it, has anyone looked into changing the weather tab uppdate time? I'm also wondering if the weather sync feature is sucking battery power?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Telek:
Ok, my TP2 with Telus I have on data all the time, with push email (so more frequently goes active) and have no problems at all with battery usage. I can go several days between charges, but don't because I plug my phone in every night anyway.

How much talk time do you have on the phone on an average day? How many emails do you recieve? Is it exchange based on POP/IMAP?

You can easily set up the email sync itself to be manual, i.e. open your email app and click on send/recv - this way it won't hop on itself to grab emails all the time which will help with your battery life, but not really by much.

Similarly just set the weather application not to update automatically.

Keep in mind that a single phone call (on average) lasts about 3 minutes, a single data session lasts only a few seconds.

But even if you still want it to send/recv at a specified interval then when the connection is dormant (i.e. in between scheduled send/recv) it's not really taking any more power than if it was "offline" - this is just a state that both ends know, not an always-active transmit/receive when there is no actual data.

If you really need more battery life then just wait a few seconds when you check your email or the weather for it to go online and grab the data on demand.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jeff_roey:
Thanks for the reply Telek. Since I've had the phone, my talk time per day has been pretty low, relatively speaking. I seem to notice the drain after the phone's been sitting idle. I charge daily but if I didn't, I'm guessing I wouldn't come near several days on a single one.

I do get poor reception while I'm in my house and I'm thinking that might have something to do with it. What you wrote about the data connection while inactive makes a lot of sense - I should probably be looking elsewhere.

Also, my phone is set to CDMA only in case any viewers are thinking of asking the question. :o
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Telek:
Well poorer reception will hurt battery life, but only while the phone is active. CDMA signals all have to reach the tower at the same strength (IIRC) so if a phone has poorer reception it will have to up it's broadcast power.

How many emails are you getting daily? Is it feasible to just go to "on demand" and manually do a send/recv to see if that helps your battery life?

It's possible that the phone isn't going into sleep mode, or times out at a much longer interval than normal. Perhaps try going into the power management page and shrinking the timeouts?

Not sure what else to suggest - maybe you just have a bad battery?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gsuhr03:
I am in the same boat here. Although I use pop and don't get that much email. I use it as a phone, text, then data. Just through a days use, sometimes not making a phone call at all my battery will be near death. I HAVE to charge it daily. I have a car charger, charger at work, and 2 chargers at home so I always can charge so it isn't that big of a deal for me. My signal strength is normally above 70% through my house and work.

I am ready to try out a new rom to see if that makes a difference.

PS not trying to thread steal but throwing out some info that might help.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Robes1:
I have to charge my TP2 like 3 times a day. Between Twitter, email, and reading on the net it goes pretty fast.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] KT_HTC:
My battery life isnt too good either...I have email set to check every 2 hours. If i browse the net for about 15 minutes I lose a notch in battery life. I have to charge every night too!!

I got the 2100 extended battery in the mail today, im going to try it out and see how it does...if it's not a big improvement then im sending it back...the extended battery cover is ugly and slightly bulky so I dont like that to well...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jeff_roey:
Has anyone fooled around with the power management settings in ATC? If so, any notable changes worht exploring?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] erick10:
Well for my usage on a Sprint Touch Pro 2, I get good battery life. I make maybe 10 calls a day but each call is less than 2 minutes.

I surf the web maybe an hour a day and send + receive maybe 75-100 texts a day. I dont check my email to often.

Maybe 3 times a day I press Send/Receive but after I finish my stuff, I go to Communications and turn off my Data Connection.

At the end of the day I have about 60%. Although I have my backlight set at 30%. Others like it halfway and others fully set.

30% is ok for me indoors but once outside I turn it up to 80% if I really need too but then set it back to 30% once indoors.

Some solutions to Imagio battery drain

My 1st Imagio had no problem with battery, but the "end" key broke so I had a replacement sent. The replacement had nicks on screen and major battery drain, with overnight charge, by 3:00pm I had 5% left. So I sent for 2nd replacement. Same problem with the battery, fully drained by midday. Frustrated, I went to Verizon and requested replacement battery. All seemed well at first. Then, the new battery began to drain. I started eliminating programs running and now, at 10:00pm, I still have 72%, I talked, texted, sent pic mssg, got email, updated weather...etc. This is what I changed.

I turned the phone to CDMA only.

I changed input back to default HTC qwerty (I had sip change to swype)

I set email to check once a day, but I hit send/receive periodically

I set weather to check once a day.

Sorry, but I also uninstalled "codyppc performance booster"

I reinabled Auto Divice lock. (this seemed to help save battery by locking)

I am running spb mobile shell 3.5 and WM 6.5 interface. Whenever I run the HTC Touchflo3D it seems to drain more battery, along with suck up memory.

I check running applications often, reset a couple times a day. I am having an issue with my spb time alarm going off in the morning though. I will try something tonight to eliminate that as the culprit. Overall, I think anything set to run regularly will drain the battery. With these fixes, now I LOVE THIS PHONE. I have all my programs on it, lots of program and storage memory left, (more than I had out of the box) tweaked just the way I like. Hope this helps someone.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bjtheone:
I am trying to determine if you can send/receive files over bluetooth, between a Magic and a netbook running Ubuntu (9.10 specifically). Bluetooth works on both devices with my headset. Both devices can see eachother during discovery. Other than dealing with that absurdly short pairing timeout and the lovely 6 digit PIN I can get to the "Paired but not connected" state.

However all attempts to send or receive files, initialed from either side fail.

Does anyone have bluetooth file transfers working between the phone and a computer running Ubuntu (both directions), and if so how (what setup, what app, etc)?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] wellbug:
I like ubuntu,too.:D

why don't try wi-fi.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Unoid:
I notice that I cna't get bluetooth to conenct with my ubuntu netbook.

wifi tether won't obtain Ip address either.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bjtheone:
Wifi works fine. It is somewhat the principle of the mattter, and somewhat if I am already using bluetooth to pair with my headset, why run another power draining radio to push or pull a small file to/from my netbook.

I have wifi FTP working. Also have Wifi Tether and use it all the time. I guess I am greedy... want bluetooth as well. It should be possible once I sort out what the issue is.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bjtheone:
Status update

After installing gnome-user-share and allowing Personal File Sharing->Share Files over Bluetooth, and unpairing and repairing the handset yet again I now can push files from the netbook and the phone. I cannot browser either device remotely and pull files though.

So it is half working. Does anyone have both push and pull working?
[Touch Diamond CDMA] tbonebbq:
I've got a Sprint Touch Diamond with WM6.1 that's a year old. Can I download WM6.5 and have it work on my phone? Is there a possibility that it will damage my phone? I'm afraid that if I install WM6.5 and update the ROM (of whatever else needs to be done) that I'll mess my phone up...

Sorry to ask, but I've never updated the ROM or anything like that, so this is all new to me. I've added in a few small programs from here and gotten some good wallpaper photos.
