[HD2 General] doctajay:
thanks for the link. I've actually been running UptoDate on my hd2 without any special cabs or mods using Dutty's v0.9 ROM. Not the one with the start menu at the bottom, but the one with it at the top. I was so surprised to find it working. Does your cab disable the function of the native IE browser, or is it left intact?
[HD2 General] drtom2007:
Yeah, you only need my cab for newer ROMs with the new start menu at the bottom. All ROMs with the start menu at the top do not need any patch.

IE is still working for me, but anyway I prefer Opera.
[HD2 General] drmolle:
There are at least 3 chm readers.

There are at least 3 chm readers microOLAP CHM Reader, Fast CHM Reader, and CHM Reader.NET. all the 3 work fine for me, Im an Orthopedic Surgeon and I use several textbooks in CHM. However I have some problems with my new ROM in wich any CHM Reader isnt working. It is the best ROM ive tried but since I use CHMa lot I will need to switch to a different one until the problem is solved.
[HD2 General] sinned69:
You'll have no problem running any of the programs you've asked about. Uptodate, Isilo and Skyscape are working fine on my HD2 as they do on my Artemis, Touch Diamond and TD2. The capacitive screen and scrolling takes a little getting used, as it can be a little challenging using the top menu items, especially if one has big fingers.

I've over 70 Skyscape apps installed and 4 GPS apps plus many more and the device is blistering fast. All the programs I have on my other HTC devices (WM5.0 and WM6.0) still work fine on the HD2.

I flashed my HD2 with dZenkinZ Merlion 2.50 CHS WWE (WM6.5) ROM, as I need Simplified Chinese capability along with English, and I can say it's a nice stable fast ROM.

Good luck with your purchase.
[HD2 General] Frostlance:
yeah..skyscape apps works fine..big fonts easy to read..the only prob is no kinetic scrolling within skyscape apps
[HD2 General] dr.trance:
hi

i have htc hd2 & i'm having the same scrolling problem on skyscape applications.

i downloaded ftouchsl but my start menu is blocked & i can't scroll down untill i turn off ftouchsl

can anyone help me with that plz?
[HD2 General] dr.trance:
is there any cab that can fix skyscape scrolling problem( other than ftouchsl)?
[HD2 General] duke911:
I just got my HD2 (T-mobile US) and skyscape is not working properly for me!

The problem is there is no search option! I can't search for anything

the whole layout looks different, more finger friendly I guess, but still.. no search option! take a look at these pictures

any help???:confused::confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 General] pizzaman79:
I can only compare it to my 2008 SkyScape progs, but i think you're not only missing the "look for" bar, but also the key bar on top and the menu bar below.

To help you we need a little more info: which rom/winmo version do you have, which version of skyscape are you using, do you have other skyscape progs installed, what did you already try to fix it (uninstall and reinstall)?
[HD2 General] duke911:
I know... I thought for some time that I have the smart phone version installed, but after hours of chatting with the tech support from Skyscape.. they said that both versions are identical

When I type on the keyboard, I can search, but the bad part is there is no place to see what you are typing!

If there was a keyboard that has a bar on top that shows whatever you type, it would be perfect! something like the full screen version of SPB keyboard, but in portrait

BTW, do you have HD2 or the original HD??

I'm using HD2 (T-mobile US version) with stock ROM, I'm not sure why all of this is happening... and I'm not sure if this applies to all HD2s or just my device!

the program is usable, but definitely not as easy to use as the old one I used to have on my TyTN II

the funny part is that when I showed the technical support the screen shots he said that this is from the iPhone :eek:

morons :D

other medical applications work fine, for instance MerckMedicus (has the merck manual and lots other free stuff) works perfectly fine...
[HD2 General] drtom2007:
DrDrugs

No problem here with EnergyROM 23577
[HD2 General] duke911:
This is really weird!!!

at some point I though that I might be getting smart phone version of the installer instead of PocketPC, but skyscape rep told me that they are both the same!

I have HD2 Tmobile US, with the stock ROM..

I don't have th guts to start messing with right away, I usually wait a month when I get a new toy ;)
[HD2 General] pizzaman79:
I have an HD with an HD2 rom (topix) on it.

It's a long shot, but could you tell me the value of the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429667-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}\IsSIPInputMethod\default key on your device? You can use total commander, go to plugins and then HKCR and so on.
[HD2 General] duke911:
I did a hard reset, and now everything works fine, still don't know why that happened in the first place :confused:

and thanks for the help pizzaman79 ;)
[HD2 General] dr.trance:
hey guys plz can some1 help me with the skyscape sliding issue!!!!
[HD2 General] pizzaman79:
For a doctor you should know that there are quite a few steps between "it hurts here" and "ok, take this pill". It starts with a history taking and we need a lot more info to be able to help you. Please describe all details about your HD2, what versions of what skyscape progs you use, and what exactly your problem was.
[HD2 General] wahaj123:
I have been using medical programs and medical textbooks like harrsion's medicine, critical care, nelson's pediatric, on many devices for the past 10 years.

Initially on Palm platform, but later on WinMO. Everything works on WinMo, no issues..
[HD2 General] GeitjeG:
If you mean the not able to (finger-)scroll in old apps, because the HD2 does not have directional keys:

Read the thread before asking, a program is mentioned (begins with F, ends with L :D)
[HD2 General] dr.trance:
as u can see i already used that app & it's screwd up coz it solves the skyscape finger scrolling issue but it blocks start menu and call log deosn't scroll good with it even when u do the exception thing.

i'm lookin 4 something else that can fix that problem, i tested it on the 1.43 and 1.66 official rom & still the same
[HD2 General] hocapoca:
I had problem with the call log scroll but fix it by adding cprog.exe in the exception program list. My start menu works ok too when add "Start" from windows title. I has touch pro 2 so not sure if this going to help with HD2.
[HD2 General] dr.trance:
thnx call log scrolling is workin gr8.

but stat menu is still not scrolling even when addind the start exeption!!!
[HD2 General] GeitjeG:
Try adding exceptions you find below (quote of one of the first posts in this topic), I did not have the start menu issue you report in any of the 3 ROM's I used, including stock ROM's, so I really think you should be able to solve it...
[HD2 General] gregrapt:
Hi.

I have Sanford Guide 2008, legally owned, since its realease. In my Treo 750 (WinMob 5) it was ok but when trying to install it in my HD2 allthough seems to have been installed correctly it takes forever to synchronize and eventually leads the process to an error. When trying to uninstall have no luck since it has to be removed form the desktop and the device through syncronization...

Running Win 7 (Mobile Device Center 6.1.1) and official or cooked rom -no difference...

Any thoughts about it?

Thank you in advance.
[HD2 General] pizzaman79:
You could try installing from an xp machine, freshly after a hard reset. But it sounds like the guide is just not compatible with winmo 6.5 or sense. In that case all you can do is contact customer support (who will kindly explain that winmo is not a priority)... Or, if the stanford is really important you could consider venturing into Android. But buying a Desire right after an HD2 would be a decadent waste of capital, not a very patriotistic thing to do at the moment ;-)
[HD2 General] gregrapt:
Thanks for your reply.

I agree that it has to be a WinMo problem, but it's strange that it not constant. It happened to my Treo with xp desktop as well sometimes, allthough it's more prominent with the current setup (HD2 + win7).

But it's a clever idea to install it first in synchronization -after a hard reset- so I could rule out any conflicts with other software.

Android is not option for me right now...let's wait for HD2 to become ...old...

As for the ongoing crisis, crooked governements are all over the world....

There is no way that a governement in Europe could "sink the nation's boat" so easily...

But since Greek land has plenty of oil, osmium, uranium, gold and silver that nobody has the guts to produce it and sell it for at least 3 decades, we should be aware that some "imported" forces would like to take the lead in extract it and take advantage of it....

Besides that, Greeks are more wealthy than they said....;)
[HD2 General] smithy99:
Hi there!

I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to thank you for your excellent tip.

I had the same problems on my wvga wm6.5.3 device (e.g. no key bar, no navigation) and changing the above key from "0" to "1" made the difference!

So, thanks again!
[HD2 General] pizzaman79:
Lovely. You're very welcome. I'm on Android for some now, but professionally i still miss winmo. No mobipocket (which is still the format of the dutch drug guide!), no proper .chm reader, no proper .rtf editor (in which i had made a lot of notes) and skyscape is so expensive.

Anyway, Android is still much more useful than what my iPhone colleagues can do on their iPhone... iFarts hardly contribute to a meeting ;-)
[HD2 General] GeitjeG:
That's exactly the only thing that keeps me from flashing Android. UptoDate and Farmacotherapeutisch Kompas are not available for Android yet. UptoDate producers are working on a Iphone app however, not sure when it will be released, and not sure if they are working on a Android app as well...
[HD2 General] pizzaman79:
I think the philosophy from the UpToDate people is that you should use the mobile version of their website. And i understand. It helps them prevent piracy, it assures that you're always using *ahum* up-to-date information and it's an increasingly big file for them to distribute. I'm sometimes surprised that especially iPhone users think online content is only really available if there's an app for it. However, having an off-line version can be handy in some situations. The new generation of ARM processors support virtualization, so who knows we'll one day be able to emulate Windows Mobile on our Android phones... Fortunately, in some hospitals, UpToDate is available on the local WiFi network. Private subscribtions are $195 per year for trainees and $495 otherwise, so that's pretty explensive.

The Dutch farmaceutical kompas also has a mobile website. It's suited for grabbing, so you could build your own off-line file from it. I use iSilo. Since i still have a lot of iSilo books, purchasing iSilo from the Android market was a no-brainer.

iSilo has a great program for grabbing entire websites, iSiloX. I've attached the file with the proper settings for iSiloX, but i won't attach the iSilo file until the CVZ responds to below e-mail. Hope this helps you!

Very curious how they respond.
[HD2 General] GeitjeG:
Great letter you wrote pizzaman79, I'm curious how they will react. Please keep us informed.

The online access posibilities you mention are an alternative indeed. Though in my experience speed and efficiency is much greater in most offline apps. If I want to quickly look up a drug, I do not have time to wait until opera has started and internet connection has established. Besides, in lot of areas it is not allowed to connect your phone.

You might think producers prefer the online access to offline, but as can be read from the newest UTD newsletter (here pdf) UTD is going to release an Iphone app soon. However, this Iphone app probably just logs in to UTD site, still not having all data offline.

Thanks for sending the Isilo app, I will keep it in mind 'till I decide to switch to android.
[HD2 General] pizzaman79:
I also expect the iPhone app too just access online content. My personal opinion: if you need a seperate app for it, there's something wrong with your mobile website or browser.

Anyway, back to the offline content, which i also prefer. There are versions of iSilo for many mobile OS'es, including Windows mobile and Android. In the grabbed kompas, you have to click the letter and then the drug you want, but it's still pretty fast in looking up a drug.

I'll keep you updated on the cbs's response...

Hi,

I am using an amazing dheewatara's WM6.5.1 Build 23071.5.3 beta2:: M2D VERSION 2 version available at

http://translate.googleusercontent....com.pk&usg=ALkJrhhVqSRdnOntDxZHoALytFc8QWP0jA

but i am facing huge batter drain issues, just when i disable the Manila and use Titanium the battery drain seems to be back to normal.

Has anyone encountered a similar problem? Plz help...

I think it is the Manila2D.exe running in background in the suspend mode... Just a wild guess...

Nice cartoon GFX

Realistic background sounds for main menu

Fun and addictive

[G1 Android Development] ziggiesandvik:
Hi,

I've been wondering if it might me possible to mount a different partition or event better an iso file and make it visible via USB Mass Storage instead of the sdcard?

I had a look around and found the /etc/vold.conf:

volume_sdcard {
## This is the direct uevent device path to the SD slot on the device
media_path /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1
emu_media_path /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0/mmc_host/mmc0

media_type mmc
mount_point /sdcard
ums_path /devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0
}

I tried to change media_path to, for example /dev/block/mtdblock4 but apparently vold didn't like it :)

Did anyone try to do such a trick? :) Any tips? :)

Thanks,

ziggiesandvik
[G1 Android Development] r00ktard:
it shows there...

media_path /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1

so it appears to mount the actual memory card. there fore it should mount all partitions available on the memory card.

I know that works, when i plug my phone in on a machine running linux it will mount all my partitions for example ext3 and my fat32.

are you trying to mount an internal partition on the device?
[G1 Android Development] sirocyl:
I remember there was something in the ums_enable script of the modded recovery, which echoed the device path to something in /sys/, though I'm too lazy to pull it up now. Changing that device path did let me mount other things (like a loop image on the sdcard) to the USB mass storage.
[G1 Android Development] ziggiesandvik:
Yes, that's what I'm trying to achieve - expose a different partition via usb.

I tried to change the media_path to for example /dev/block/mtdblock4 but it didn't work.

I was unable to find anything in /devices/platform/... that would look like a partition.

I'm stuck :confused:
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
I'd like to get a list of which shops in which cities actually have HD2's available for demonstrations. (Personally I'd like somewhere in London, but other people will want them in other places!)

Obviously feel free to tell us what you thought of the phone when you demo'ed it. :)
[HD2 General] WildWayz:
Got one to test :)

I have been playing with it since last week, and some things are great - somethings I dont like. I don't really want to say much as it may not be final software.
[HD2 General] twisted-pixel:
I have to say I'm very suspicious of all these people who claim to have a device 'but can't say anything because they might get into trouble'...

I believe Belafont because at the very least he posted pics and feedback....

hey..maybe I've got on here to play with...can't say anything of course...you'll have to wait......

yeah right
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
You could still say but put a disclosure that it might not be the final ROM.
[HD2 General] kinnyfaifai:
To be fair, the release date is just around the corner so we'll get more answers soon.

There's supposed to be another announcement on the 4th Nov, not sure what other details they can give but still going ot be interesting nonetheless.
[HD2 General] twisted-pixel:
exactly my point, if wildwayz has one as he claims, why doesn't he tell us about it...show us some pics etc....

with the release just around the corner, what difference would it make to divulge some info?
[HD2 General] zoomee:
chill guys

some of us would put our professional lives at risk by speaking out now.

Its called an NDA - Non-Disclosure Agreement

And before you ask - no I aint got one :p
[HD2 General] WildWayz:
Show you some photos? What of? The outside of the case?

I DO have one - even posted a photo of the battery in another thread. I just installed the final ROM on the HTCPedia site - which has fixed the issue with Panoramic Photos.

Not played too much with the final ROM tho...

The reason I can't say too much is because it was a test ROM and I don't want to say anything negative about it as it doesnt give HTC fair chance to correct the issues.

What do you want to know about the HTC HD2? I'll try to answer it as best I can - bare in mind, I am new to Windows Mobile (Last time I used one, was back in the days of the PDAs ;)).
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
Speaking as the OP, I'm actually not very intererested in people who claim to have an HD2 "on test"; the main motivation behind this thread is to identify places (e.g. shops) where members of the general public can go to get HD2 demos of their own. In the early stages of a phone's release cycle, even if a given chain sells the phone, any given branch may well not have enough of them to be able to offer demonstrations. If we can find which places do, that'll be a good start.
[HD2 General] Reason4444:
I want to ask about screen material..

Is it made a tempered glass or flexy-plastic ??
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
May I humbly suggest that we don't attack every single person who comes to the forum and says he has the device, immediately declaring his/her words to be a hoax? Each and every one of us can make their own judgment, believe what we read or not, but this thread is asking for user experience, and I simply don't see the point in discouraging people right away. Also, demanding proof is kind of silly. If I had the device and read this thread, I'd most probably just leave - I certainly wouldn't bother to take pictures of myself with the phone or prove that I have it in any other way.

We're all anxious to get our hands on the beast, but let's be reasonable!
[HD2 General] WildWayz:
Tempered glass - well it feels like the iPhone. I think it may have some kinda special coating on it - smudges show up, but in the morning they are gone (Pilkinson make some glass like that, I believe).

Plus it is capacitive.

When you factory reset it, the setup wizard is very similar to the Hero - asks you to test the typing etc, choose mobile operator, connect to wi-fi then set up GMail, Exchange or another email account.

You can remove items from the Sense bar - so if you dont use Twitter etc, they can be removed.
