Hi there,

I've read a lot about configuring my phone, and seen some amazing eye-candy here and there.

Thing is, I like the looks and working of my phone (XannyTech 1.9, manila 2.5.1920 and wm6.5 5.2.21870), it's just that annoying big clock I want to get rid of. I'd like a transparant one for example.

What's the best way to do this? I can imagine it's not as simple as installing a cab...

Could anyone point me in the right direction?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] scg1889:
Hey folks any idea on this?

I've had my Diamond for just over 12 months until now ring tone has worked fine when i get an incoming call but now it's stopped working. I usually have it set to "vibrate then ring" but now it just vibrates, i've tried all the options including just plain and simple "ring" but to no avail. Interestingly when i preview it when i've made a change it plays the ring tone for incoming call fine so the speaker must be ok. I've also changed the ringtone played as well but has the same net result.

any thoughts welcome :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Viffer800:
Press the volume button on the side of the phone.

There are two tabs [Ring] and [System]

Make sure [Ring] is not set at silent

I had the same problem and that was the cause. Just did it for no reason and still does it periodically. At least I know what to do to fix it now
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] scg1889:
Spot on mate!! Many thanks for that as you say no idea how mine came to be on silent for Ring either. Thanks again :)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arpitgoyal31:
Hi,

I have an unlocked HTC hero from orange. It is having some strange problem relating gps(global positioning system). The gps works extremely well when I am connected to network through 2g network but do not works at all when I am connected through 3g. I don't see any relationship between them also I can use gps in airplane mode but can not use it when there is no sum inserted. What I think is that as the phone share common gps, 2g and 3g chip when the phone turns off 2g radio it also turns off the gps chip. Is somebody else experiencing the same problem. I also reset the device but problem persists. Is there something I can do. Is it hardware fault or bug in the software considering gps is working very fine on 2g. I currently have latest genuine Rom from orange so cannot try changing the Rom.

Thankyou

Hello all,

what is the best browser for windows mobile. Opera its fine but not realy the best ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mastermarv:
in my opinion opera mini 4.2 under jbed and mobile 9.5 for all pages that mini can not display properly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kierandill:
This should probably be a poll. Unless you have a scientific way of measuring "best", all you will get is a bunch of opinions. And everyone has a favorite browser, so with enough replies you will have all the common browsers represented.

The right answer may be "it depends".

I have PIE, Opera and Skyfire, and they all have their advantages.

Where can I get a real good case and screen protector for my vzw tp2 with all buttons and holes in the proper accessible spot? A clean perfectly clear non anti glare screen protector as well. Can I get something in my local verizon store or another local store? I won't be buying anything like this online. i don't trust online one bit for something this fine.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] starscalling:
welcome to the digital age....
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] football0552:
do it online. Buy a ghost armor or phantom skinz or the like skin protector. I've tried both on the TP2 and like both. Phantomskinz is a bit harder to install though.

Remember to cover the wetness indicators on your phone with a small piece of paper and tape.

I actually find purchasing the ones they have at the Verizon store work best for me they usually outshine the ones I buy online from ebay or other sites, but cost a bit more

I bought the phantom skinz full body one. Didnt really have any issues applying it. Just make sure it is completely dust free, i have one annoying spec of dust under the screen protector, but its one i can live with. dont notice it most of the time, and not worth the effort of taking off and reapplying it.

A while back phantom skinz was having a 2 pack special and a coupon that got me 2 full screen and body protectors for about $16.

Was about to make a thread about this for me too

The age old question, WTF happened to all the accessories with these phones especially when your spending $400+ dollars or more for the handset? ridiculous that you have to BUY your own MEMORY CARD and CARRYING CASE now and HEADSET, it should come with it. My Original Sprint Touch came with everything for 350 bucks even the USB dongles, WTF happened to the Touch Pro 2 on Sprint?

As far as screen protectors and outer-case protection get GHOSTARMOR!!!!. this stuff is amazing if you have not seen it....... thanks to some fellow XDA members directions in other threads here.....

http://www.ghost-armor.com

From what I researched I think this is the superior full body protecting surface material on the market. They put this product on Military Jet wings and Helicopter blades. Watch the youtube videos they have to show how crazy this product works. I still cant believe this stuff works that good until I buy it for myself here this weekend for my new Sprint TP2. I am getting the full body protection.

also some other people in this forum have directed me thankfully to their credit, said to get PDAIR cases.

http://www.pdair.com/catalog/index.php

So far I am on a searching galore for a case too for my TP2 this weekend. I have not even activated my phone because I do not have a memory card or carrying case yet which sucks. So right now I am definitely getting GHOSTARMOR first and foremost. Someone told me to get Speck cases, but they currently only taylor iPhones, Palms and Blackberries.

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Jason85:
I called around to all my local verizon stores and no one even carries a touch pro 2 in stock let alone any accessories.

I am using the seidio Innocase mentioned above and I must say its amazing. I was hesitant to spend $30 on a case at first, bit it is well worth it. You wont be dissappointed

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] .Zen:
Something wrong with your legs? ;)

Seriously, how is anyone 'online' supposed to know what your local VzW store carries; unless they're local, too?

For instance, my local vzw stores carry scant selection of the latest phones a limited stock of accessories none of which I like--curtesy of living in a rural area. So, I usually turn to BoxWave, Seidio, WMExperts Store, Amazon or ebay. And if an independent vendor gets rave reviews or I really like something they've got, I order it.

It's not rocket science.

Hello guys from long time i search some cool compass aplication that will be very usefull for all of use.

I found that the new Touch HD 2 have Digital Compass who work Under WM 6.5 and use the GPS.

The question is.. We have WM 6.5 for our Blackstones and We have GPS too

Can someone port this Beautyfull Digital Compass we to can use in Blackstone

Here is the Image:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] polakscot:
Im pretty sure that this requires extra hardware that the HD does not have.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tsalta:
I dont mean exactly the same but someone can make some similar compass for our Blackstones for example can se the graphic from the original one just to get the idea.

We have G sensor and GPS so its posible to be made some kind of compass.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ClydeB1:
There have been a few roms that have tried it, but it did not work and caused the HD to crash when trying to exit the app.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] MAMeingast:
This is not possible: The Touch HD does not have a compass, the HD 2 does!

Just using GPS there is no way for the device to know which way is north! It can only figure out the direction when it's moving, not when it's stationary!

There have been numerous threads on this subject! ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Pandemoniumone:
Correct, our HD's will never have this capability due to not having the hardware needed. One more reason to purchase the Leo ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] naa77:
theres plenty of compass apps out there allready that use the GPS eg....Beeline, Efficasoft, there's heaps more though off the top of me head, there the ones I use. Otherwise your gonna have to buy a phone that has the specific bit of hardware in it, that can give you a stationary reading, as the GPS ones calculate this via your movement.

hi all this is my first post. i've looked up a lot of this site though and the knowledge is great here and very helpful. I basically bought an MDA T-mobile vario iii recently and even though i had it unlocked, it didn't seem to hold a network connection for an o2 simcard. Since then ive Hard spl'd it and changed the rom to a t&t tilt, an O2 XDA stellar and one of duttys roms but even though it has been rom'd to a totally new phone it still has problems connecting to a network. it has connection, then loses it and you can see it at the top trying to connect via '3GP', 'HSDPA' and 'EDGE'. Any help or suggestions would be great. cheers

Can any one help me with the files?

I would be very interested in something like this myself and do not think it is impossible. I remember from my old days when I had found a cab file to install HTC Home onto a Windows 5 Xda. It was a hit in the Xda forum then. So to say, it's not impossible.

Not too knowledgable on this but are there any roms with the latest bluetooth drivers / stack from the official Touch Pro 2 WM 6.5 release here?

There would seem to be some significant updates on the WM6.5 Touch Pro2 which makes remote sim access profile (RSAP) work correctly and fixes a number of hands free profile call quality issues.

[HD2 General] dazza9075:
Ok, as far as i can tell no one has mentioned this, i appologise if i have missed it as i know some people on here get a bit righteous on here.

SO the camera. , on the HD the camera was the only major thing that really sucked, it did everything else i was expecting of it but that camera really was crap in anything but perfect light conditions.

has anyone heard anything about this HD2 and its camera, its the same MP spec obviously but that means nothing, forget the LED lights they are a gimic at best. Whats needed is a larger CCD and lens, not pixel density, so whats the word on the streets guys? can this thing suck in more light than its older brother and not suffer major lag as the device tried to compensate? and is the shutter responce higher reducing those blured pics that can happen even in perfect day light?
[HD2 General] 20mihalko:
here you have some samples

http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=8987

and more here

http://www.slashgear.com/htc-hd2-5mp-camera-gets-reviewed-distinctly-average-1259864/

it is average... nothing good, but nothing bad... but i think those are samples from pre release... so it can change...
[HD2 General] jrvenge:
Yeah the camera sucks
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Actually, judging by the videos I've seen, HD2's camera is very fast (almost instant) when focusing, which makes it usable in real-life conditions, unlike HD's.
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
I beg to differ... While I completely agree that LED flash is no match for a "real" xenon flash, it is useful as it allows to take pictures that wouldn't be possible otherwise - you can take a picture of your friends in a bar and stuff like that (which in my case is like 90% of all the scenes I want to take pictures of :))

My major gripe with HD was very slow focusing - it just didn't allow to shoot anything. HD2 is 10 times better - it almost works like a focus-free camera in terms of speed (at least that's what I saw on some hands-on video).
[HD2 General] jrvenge:
Fast it may be, but the pictures i have seen so far are of terrible quality, but what can you expect from a cmos lens?
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
CMOS sensor, you mean?

I certainly don't consider those pictures to be of "terrible" quality. They are noisy and all, but if I can use my phone to make something like that I'd be quite satisfied, for anything better I'd use a "real" camera. The problem with my HD is that I can't use it at all because it's so slow that the scene changes several times before it shoots anything.
[HD2 General] jrvenge:
Well my nokia 5800 only has 3.2mp and it blows those pictures away. CRAP
[HD2 General] dazza9075:
Yeah, i know LED lights can have a use, especially up close as you say taking pics in the bar, which ironically is exactly the poor lighting i tried with the HD to no avail!

so i take that back.

Shutter speed would be good, ive lost too many good photos because the wind was pushing me enough to slightly blur everything.

I never even thought to check if the HD cam was CCD or CMOS,

its a bit bizzar if thats the case because although CCD has a higher quality it should be slightly slower than CMOS, which it clearly isnt, which makes me wonder what exactly is slowing the whole thing down.

Well as for the (perfect lighting conditions and zero blur) quality of the HD im more than happy, so i hope HTC can build on it and make it faster.
[HD2 General] dazza9075:
thats all rather subjectional really, my old XDA 2 produces better pics at the cost of resolution, so yes in a small printout it could be better but not when blown up. most people do not need anything more than 3.2mp, if my HD was any quicker on 3.2 id use it.

Most printers in peoples homes arent capable of printing the difference between 3.2 and 5 unless its enlarged anyway!

ive yet to see any good shots from a production HD2 but if its like the HD and its "perfect lighting" the quality is quite amazing, perfect lighting is the operative statement there though for the HD so i can only hope the HD2 can push that bar back a bit!
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
As far as I understand (and I'm not an expert so I may be wrong), there are two problems:

One is obviously the crappy optics (small and made of cheap plastic and such) which do not let enough light come through, combined with a tiny sensor, resulting in lower shutter speeds required to take a picture - thus you get the blur.

Two is the way auto focus works - it's not measuring distance to the object, but instead analyzes the image from the sensor for sharpness and then adjusts focus until the blur goes away. This requires some calculations, obviously. All (or most) non-professional cameras work this way, but "real" cameras have dedicated processors for this stuff, and don't do it in "software" mode - hence, they are much speedier. The same must apply to HD2 - Snapdragon has some camera module AFAIK, and/or is much faster overall than the processor in HD (and it's not just the clock speed, the Cortex A8 architecture is way more efficient).
