Got to say, im really dissapointed with the HTC side if things. The new Manilla or sense or whatever you want to call it is awful. It just feels out of place. The icons are tacky and the flip clock keeps reverting back to the time you turned the phone on when locking and unlocking. Dont like that the weather animation covers the whole home screen, looks terrible. Also if you use sense, then you dont get the 6.5 updated menus (finger friendly). You have to disable sense to get them.

Win 6.1 side of things is nicer then 6.1. The new 6.5 home screen is great. The start menu isnt the best, the text seems to be a little too big and makes the menu look clutered. But its all just a fancy front end, you still have the ugly applications and menus.

All in all im very tempted to go back to 6.1.

"navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Owner. You should find a key called "Hide". Please change its value from "1" to "0" and restart your device."
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Oskala:
you can also choose to show owner information in the today settings, so it shows in the normal today screen, then just put down your owner info and you'll be ready to go without any registry settings ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Meiz-:
Definitely agree.

Btw. any easy way to get the old black and white icons to bottom row? The new color versions just look awful :|
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] scotthubbard:
so why do none of the official roms come with the home screen widgets for weather and stocks? I would find these really useful as I prefer the titanium home screen to sense.

any idea if its possible to get these?

LED Indication

Hi,

Just upgraded to the 6.5 rom from the HTC site. Seems to be running allright except there is a slight lag. Battery consumption seems to be on the higher side. But it is the first day and i have been playing around with it :D.

However the LED indication does not turn green when the battery is fully charged, and one has to check the notifications bar to see status. Has anyone else faced this problem???

Hi

I downloaded the WWE version from HTCPedia, then later downloaded the official UK one from HTC's website. Checking the files they are an exact match and have the same hash values, so the WWE on HTCPedia = the UK one from HTC official website, no funny business going on :)

Regards

Which files are you referring to? I downloaded RUU_Topaz_S_HTC_WWE_2.16.405.4_Radio_Sign_Topaz_61.44tc.25.32_4.49.25.17_Ship.exe from HTCPedia and _HTC Touch Diamond2_WM6.5_RUU_Topaz_S_HTC_GER_2.16.407.1_Radio_Sign_Topaz_61.44tc.25.32_4.49.25.17_Ship.exe from HTC.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to get the motion sensor in my Omnia Pro working with programs written for HTC devices. Therefore I found "HTCEmu" (v0.9) which implements the "HTCSensorSDK.dll" for Omnia devices.

But unfortunately, it doesn't work on my B7610.

Has anyone tried it successfully? Or has anyone a hint how I can solve my problem?

I'd really like to use "changeScreen" or tools like that...

Thanks in advance,

It has been months since I have used a Hero ROM, I loved it but the SMS thing was just too big of a killer. So my question simply is, has it been resolved yet to work 100% of the time?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Remixznflow:
Hello, this is my second post and my second smartphone! So far i am happy with it, however im trying to install and try some of the things that i am learning here. I have a few questions.

First, the Advanced Config. I have installed some new background screens from one of the threads here. All of my screens work with the exception of my home screen. I went into Advanced Config and looked for a way to disable my current home screen and i cant seem to find it. Do i need a more up to date Advanced Config?

Second I have the t mobile version of the rhodium if i decide to install on of the newer roms is there a way to restore to factory if something goes wrong? Will it void my warranty on the phone?

Third and finally... is there a way that i can enlarge my X, and OK icons at the top left of my screen? Im using my fingers to do all the operations on the phone. Yes i know i have a stylus but i prefer to use my hands. So far it isnt a problem but it was a question in my mind.

Thank you so much for the feedback. I look forward to learning all i can about this awesome device and this knowledgeable community!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ai6908:
I am not too sure what you mean by home screen. Are you talking about TouchFlo? If so, what is the issue with it? You can disable it under settings, today or home.

Yes t-mobile us has an official shipped ROM, so you will be able to flash back as needed.

X-button size is what you get. I dont think you can increase the size of it. Although you might be use that, but it wont close an app completely.

As always, flashing is dangerous process. So make sure you read all the materials, before you decide to do so.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] lilchip85:
he's right. if you want the original stock rom for tmobile click on my sig where it says "TMOUSA TP2 Stock Rom". it'll put it back to normal for warranty reason. but you also need to go to the hard spl thread to lock it back up.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carnegie0107:
Okay, so this is one question that, from a technical standpoint, is probably more like two questions. I want to be able to change the vibrate duration for keypresses on both the stock LatinIME and on HTC_IME. They are too long, IMO. I'd like to turn them all down to, say, 30ms. I just don't have any idea where to look. I've poked around inside the apks, but I'll admit I don't have the know-how to find what I'm looking for. Anyone point me in the right direction?
[Touch HD General] stiscooby:
Since the clocks went back here in the UK by an hour on the weekend the time which is displayed when I receive a txt is an hour out.

The time on the phone didnt seem to go back an hour automatically so I manually changed the time but now when I receive a txt it says the message was received at e.g. 20:30 when in fact the time/clock on my phone display's as 19:30 (which is the correct time)?

Anyone have any ideas what the prob is? :confused:
[Touch HD General] Svegetto:
This is just a guess, but it almost sounds to me like your carrier hasn't set their time back. See what happens if you tell your phone to sync time with your carrier. If it sets it to the old time, then that would explain why your incoming txts are not right. I'm basing this on the idea that incoming sms time stamp is set by carrier and not by your phone. And I'm guessing that outgoing texts should be set by your phone.

Hope this helps

I have the same issue with some text messages. It´s only in those cases the sender hasn´t set the right time zone or didn´t correct the time at his device. ask those senders for the time they set.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] wonkytoad:
in most situations my niki defaults to t9 which is what i want it to do. (hardware keyboard)

In a couple of situations/places to type it defaults to abc mode eg in internet explorer address bar.

It also used to do this when writing a contacts name in the to field of a blank text message. This meant i could enter a couple of characters and then scroll down the contacts which appeared at the bottom of screen.

Since hard resetting and adding m2d last week it now defaults to t9 in the above situation. Anyone know a way of getting it to default to abc in this field.

It's a fairly minor annoyance but it used to work so there must be a way of making it happen. Is there a reg change i can make or something.

I'm running official htc wm6.1 rom with m2d build 21 on, and not a lot else.

Thanks

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] wonkytoad:
Kind of solved this - realised that I'd upgraded ezInput to rc2 (in order to work with opera) and thats what had caused this to stop working.

Downgraded again and it works as described above again.

Not too bothered as i didn't like opera that much in the end.

Main annoyance with downgrading again is that I dont seem to be able to add words less than 4 letters to the custom dictionary. This was fixed in RC 2

Anyone else experience this problem/ now of a fix.

Some poeple are the meaning, that the place for this thread will be better here: OK, lets following this issue here. Here is a copy from the previews one:

CM 4.2.1 / CM4.1.99x Exception with contact group

Exception with Contacts - so like as in 4.1.99x

I have the same problem as in 4.1.99x, that I can not add a contact in my group (there is still ony one, which was working after some crashes in 4.1.999) without a crashed application

If I look into the exception Monitor, I can found a lot of:

What can I do or must do ?

History: I have had the G1 not so long time, but modif. it via WIPE to the 4.0.x ( stable )

After this (2 days later I upgrade to 4.1.111)

from this status I was following the description with the 2 Step to 4.1.999, where I have see the error the first time. With 4.0.x / 4.1.111 I haven't recognize this problem, because I have add some friend in my contact-list. For my meaning, this one was coming in, during upgrade in the 3 steps: WIPE, Google-Recovery, CM-Update 4.1.999.

Hint: If I update the phone, I start the phone WITHOUT a Mobile-Card: because I have had one time a bill over 200€ for data connection, and nobody knows why. So I boot the phone after update without card, check APNdroid, if 3G etc. disabed, shut down the phone, insert the casrd and boot again.

Maybe this handling calls the error ?

......

......

YES, I have use the search function and didn't found any usefull infos.

>>> ( how does I love this answer! If you found time to write this one, than I think, you know the answer - pls give me this one )

YES. I have reflashed the 4.2.1 with the card inside the phone: No change

Btw.: I was falling also in the error with the ext2 and ext3, so I change this one on the PC via tune2fs. But normaly every program, which need a DB and did not found it, create one. Or isn't it ?

Have you tried backing up your contacts via the browser, deleting them, sync the phone and then restoring?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wesie:
No I haven't, because I have not so much contacts... So I was starting with a brand-new phone, "root" them, wipe them and change to CM4.0.x (Stable), jump to CM 4.1.11 and after a few days following the instruction to move to 4.1.999 with WIPE, 1st paket and the CM-paket.

Here I see the problem and also in 4.2.1.

About a missing Backup, I try only to create a contact manual on the phone.

THe first time, if I want to add the contact, the phone ask me to syncronise - but I was offline at all. So I reject this message ( there are also no datas to sync online )

Hi guys,

I wanted to get rid of the Vodafone crap that came with the official update to Android 1.6. So since I had an unrooted version of the ROM, I couldn't just delete the Vodafone applications. I did it the hard way, I replaced it with the official Google ION image from HTC!

How to do it? EASY!

1 - Download the "Recovery Image" from HTC: http://developer.htc.com/google-io-device.html

2 - Copy the .zip to the root of your SDCard but first rename it to update.zip

3 - Install Engineering SPL 2005 from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=529019 - this will allow you flash Google ION ROM directly with Amon_RA's recovery tool, which makes your HTC Magic 32B from now on a Google ION device!

4 - Download Amon_RA's recovery tool: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=530492

5 - Get fastboot utility from here: http://developer.htc.com/adp.html and place it into the Android SDK/tools folder on your computer

6 - Follow the instructions by Amon_RA's to fastboot the recovery to your device, since you now have an Engineering SPL on your device!

7 - Apply the update.zip

That's it! It will flash the official Android 1.6 from HTC Google ION device, and what's cool is that it also supports OTA updates from HTC, which means you will probably get access to Android builds much faster that you did with the carriers and they will be striped from the crap applications they feed them with.

Questions? Shoot away :)

Edit:

To make it more fun, I got the splash image from Google ION device that was given on the 2009 Developer Conference.

Download the attached file, put your device into fastboot and then type:

fastboot flash splash1 /path/to/file/googleion.raw565

fastboot reboot

where /path/to/file is the path to where the file is :)

No, only Google sync. I'm not sure if you can add it later via .apk from other rom's.

No, no smart dialer on the dialer, but now that you can search contacts right from the home screen using the search button, I don't see why you would need it :)
