I have used the Rhodium Keyboard Controller to set the PTT button to open the camera on a short press, and start CleanRam on a long press on my Tilt2, and it works perfectly. Using that, you can set the PTT button to whatever you want, and you can set it to different functions (long press, short press, double tap,etc.)

someone please help me
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RanT476:
i dont kno if you can downgrade from 1.6 but im sure u should be able to i have not seen any posts saying u cant so

Ok we need to kno a few things

Make sure your new phone has the right Board before you do nething to do that

turn off your phone

hold the Camera button(on the right side of your Dream/G1) and also hold the Power button(the red phone button)

make sure you have a PVT then im sure you should be ok

to exit this press all these buttons at the same time

The Green Phone+Menu Button+Power Button(Red phone button)

then go to this post and follow the directions to the T!!!!! and you should be ok to run Cyanogen it takes more to run Hero but just follow the guide if your phone has the correct stuff

(ONLY IF ONLY EVERYTHING CHECKS OUT HERE AFTER YOU CONFIRM YOU HAVE THE RIGHT STUFF IN YOUR PHONE you man continue cause were not responsible if you mess up your phone YOU ARE)

Required Materials:

G1 / Dream

Micro SD card reader (phone will work in MOST cases)

Computer with Internet connection

USB cable for phone

Data Plan

^^^^^^^^^^

Fingerlickin's guides Requirements

and if everything checks out again go to

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=563679

and follow it to the T and you should be fine

and also

i might be forgetting something but just put that info in the post for now im sure myself and others will see what u can do at the moment

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brettx24x:
ok so heres my new problem. im stuck on the G1. (i tried to flash a theme) if i put all the cyanogen files on my sdcard can i some how re-do it that way?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RanT476:
im guessing u gave up on hero? i dont kno

but what your asking is how to install a theme on cyanogen im guess so

you need to wait like 10 or 15 for it to install if you didnt wait patiently

if that dont work wipe and reflash let it load up the first time then turn it off and go bak to recovery and flash the theme make sure it for your rom also or else most of the time it wont work
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowfear:
another thing to keep in mind when you are looking for a decent theme, use the nandroid backup feature in your recovery. I change themes like I change underwear. I always backup, flash theme or test if I am building my own. If it works I keep it, if not, I restore backup and try again. Restoring a backup seems to take less time to reboot than reflashing the rom. (at least it seems that way to me)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dilbert_:
There are many posts on GPS lag.

In some case there can be some extra problem but really GPS lag is to be expected because:

- it takes time to decode and compute GPS data from the RF signal;

- it takes time to transfer GPS data to the applications (for example a navigator);

- a typical GPS data refresh rate is 1 sec;

- a navigator is a computational intensive application and some delay in map refresh is to be expected.

All in all a lag between 1 and 2 sec would not be surprising and this kind of lag is quite noticeable (at 100 Km/h you move 28 m in a second).

If lag is not eliminable it can be compensated. A compensating application should:

1 - create a virtual serial port;

2 - wait for the GPS data;

3 - given position, speed and heading adjust position by moving it forward in heading direction by speed times a lag parameter;

4 - send the new GPS data to the virtual serial port;

5 - goto 2

On bends the compensation would not be perfect but navigators normally force the position to stay on the nearest road so they would mask this.

Now, an application like this is not very complex. I would develop it myself if I were a WM programmer and had the slighter idea of how create a virtual serial port...:o

Just rename the file to sappimg.nbh throw it the root of your sdcard, reboot while holding down the volume down button. Should do everything on it's own.

SIM suddenly stopped being recognized

Hi!

I had qtek (s200) prophet IPL 2.10.001 ,spl 2.20.0001 , GSM 2.47.21 and OS 2.20.7.36 . I upgrade with rom PL 2.10.001 ,spl 2.20.0001 , GSM 2.20.7.34 . After that my phone is not recognising sim. Message is there on the screen (invalid sim)

Then found out that the SIM was "missing or invalid"

Tried my SIM on a colleague's phone. It works.

Tried his SIM on my phone. Doesn't work

Tried soft reset, hard reset, flash a bunch of different rom, with and without the SIM inserted. With every different system I just get an "Invalid or missing SIM" message

Ah, also tried cleaning the contacts of the SIM holder in the phone, and even turning it on after half an hour in the fridge

Everything else seems to be working, it's just some part of the gsm system that doesn't work

Does anyone have other suggestions?

Thanks!!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Dixiesmu:
Invalid SIM

Hi There

It is possible you have damaged the phone as you must NEVER flash a phone with the SIM inserted

The other thing to note is did you perform a hard SPL before flashing?

I have the TP2 with stock Sprint ROM.

I have changed the KBD settings to use LogMeIn with this reg edit:

[HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e001 0409]

(MS IME mode)

Ime File = \windows\compime.dll

Layout Text = COMP IME

Not sure if this is causing my problem, however my touch screen input keyboard is only showing the default that Opera uses, with the ".com" button instead of spacebar. How can I get my spacebar back?

Sometimes it sticks on number input also after clicking on a number field like the time.

Anybody?

This works temporarily, but when I click on the time in a calendar entry, it switches to numbers, and does not switch back unless I re edit the registry. Is there any way to keep the setting from changing at all? I want it to stay at CurrentET9Style = 0.

Anybody?

Then you have to use KforTouchPro to enable the keyboard with LogMeIn. (And then the reverse to get back to properly working soft keyboard)

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synpax:
Hi,

I have an X1 with the latest updated software from SE.

I want to see if I can get my device to be more responsive / improved / resolve some quirks.

But I don't really have time to read through pages of FAQs and learn about cooking and kitchens and then research all the roms, etc.

So what I would like to request is for some phone optimization consulting services in exchange for green rectangles.

What I'd like to do is:

- Discuss my needs for the phone and how I currently use it.

- Get feedback on how we can improve the phone's performance and responsiveness to those needs.

- Walk me through any kind of ROM fixes/upgrades.

- Give me step-by-step documentation on repeating the process so I can do it again if I need to.

Please either post here or send a PM with your qualifications and an estimate. I think this will run about 2 hours (1 hr or less of discussion via IM and then 1 hr of doing upgrades, etc.)

Thanks.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asian_boi:
well...as a personal non-offensive opinion. but if you don't have time to read here, then you shouldn't be thinking about trying to mod your phone to begin with.

I'll give you this free advice.

if you want to get rid of some annoying things and the very very unresponsive speed on the wm 6.1 on your x1. get xperiatweak2. that's something that'll help a heck load.

if you are willing to take the chance of modifying the rom (which sony will say your warrenty is over if they find any rom mods that have been done to phone), then read this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=446070 . as far as modding the rom goes, this topic has the most accurate information i've found so far.

and I highly recommand you read the forum topics that are posted here in the forum. That will help you more than us trying to tell you what to do and do everything for you.

we are all here willing to help you, but you need to do your part too.

I'm helping to start a new industry of cell phone optimization consultants, and you seem to turn your nose up at it.

I started my company doing things that others could do if they spent a few hours looking through documentation but just didn't have the aptitude or time to do so.

I have XPTweaker already. I presume you guys have made improvements to the ROM(s) to make the device run faster and better - or am I mistaken?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Angelusz:
Although you did feel compelled to rub your alleged achievements in his face, you didn't stop to actually read his post and understand what he's trying to convey. Now don't get me wrong - I mean no offense here, but you do have to understand that you joined a community that has a certain way of dealing with things. You're one of the many (many!) "new guys" that thinks (right or wrong, regardless) that they have a really good idea. This time you got the pre-programmed (or so it seems) response.

In my opinion you portray yourself a bit too selfless, regarding the starting a whole new industry. Fact remains that you posted here because you need help, not us (starting a new industry).

Having said that - I'm sure someone here will be interested in helping you out. If I understand correctly you're offering money for the service ("green rectangles") - perhaps this question belongs in the marketplace - I don't know.

If your search proves fruitless, you may PM me as a last resort - I could teach you the ropes.

Good luck, and enjoy your stay at XDA!

the man wants personalized help and is willing to pay for it. this is a reasonable request and i find it "trollish" to start and argue about it. it doesnt really matter what his background is. its a standart business decision to save some time and pay someone qualified to do required work or provide infos.

also i find it very annoying to scroll past a bunch of useless so-called "funny" images just to keep track of real posts.

how about helping people instead of using this as a personal entertainment-stage ?

To OP, maybe you can list your spec/requirements here. Then me or others could see how to help.

BTW, HTC Advance config tools is much better than Xperiatweak.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synpax:
Maybe this better fits in Marketplace but I have a feeling that the expertise I am looking for lives here and not there.

I do not have time to become an expert in Rom modification and an expert in the variety of ROMs available, or in all of the applications available. I just don't. I'm an expert in other areas and can't also be an expert in this one. The opportunity costs are too high.

I tried reading the post earlier on HOW TO mod the rom but that's just a small part of the equation. WHICH rom? Why? what other applications? Etc.

There's something called comparative advantage. It means that - for at least one person here I hope - it is better for both of us for me to do what I'm good at, and use the revenue from that to compensate you for your expertise in X1A modifications.

If everyone took the approach of having to personally learn how to do everything they wanted to do, I would be out of a job and they would get a bad result or run out of time.

I think there's a certain elitism that some people hold, and it's probably a big reason as to why Linux hasn't gotten anywhere in the main stream, but I know that not everyone is so elitist so I'm hopeful that at least one of you who is an expert in this area would like to earn a fair amount over a period of an hour or two.

Anyway, PM me if interested. Posting here would probably get you labeled a "sellout" by your peers.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Angelusz:
Alright, perhaps I misunderstood. That's just how it came across to me.

I think that Jackleung made a good point - it might be a good idea to be a bit more specific as to what you want.

As in the scenario you described earlier, here people also have specializations within certain parts of modifying the ROM/software. With a bit of specificity you might just find the right guy(/girl) for the job.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asian_boi:
I'm not saying that you have to either join the club or screw off.

all that I'm saying is that if your willing to pay money and get someone to teach you the steps of getting things done and all that. why not spend a little time here and read some of the posts that people have posted up?

most tutorial posts here are all written up in steps, it's simple, easy, and direct.

and like the other guys have been saying all this time, you need to be more specific as to what you want so that the other members here can help you.

and similar to what I said from my first reply to you. I'm in no way trying to be rude to you or offend you in any sense. I just wanted to give you a little suggestion to help that's all.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackleung:
I agreed to his "comparative advantage" theory. It's true it's more effective if everyone works on his/her specialty. (e.g. I gave up to teach my wife how to config (not even rom cooking) WM phone. I rather configure it for her... :eek:)

And least synpax stated very clearly he is willing to pay. Unlike some suckers who request free service without do his/her own readings. But again, it's more effective if synpax can list some of your spec/requirement here first.

orelsi, please stop your pointless and harassal reply.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Joaquin Marcide:
Hi,

I´m a recent user of an Android device with now the last Official Donut ROM.

As a mobile device it is performing very nice and I like the interface (and the whole concept) a lot. However for utilization in a corporate environment it is almost useless at least in my case. Let me explain:

In a common standard company an employee when it sits at his desk he/she:

- Starts is desktop/laptop PC

- Starts his mail client that in the vast majority of cases will be Microsoft Office Outllook client that either connects to a Microsoft Exchange mail Server or to any other kind of mail server (merak, etc.)

- Then he will access to his mails, to his contacts, to his calendar and to his tasks that all of them are stored locally in Outlook files. (Well, if the server is an Exchange server they can be stored only in the server itself). In the case of Exchange normally the connection forces to use and to install a certificate in the client.

- The he will open documents from the Microsoft Office Suite i.e. Word, Excel, Power Point.

- Eventually the employee will move from his desk and i.e. attends a meeting where he can access a corporate WIFI network that in the vast majority of sites will have a proxy.

With a mobile device I would need:

- Sync locally with the desktop the contacts, calendar and tasks

- Surf the WEB using the corporate WIFI network

- Configure an Exchange account that forces to install a certificate

- Read (and eventually modify Word or Excel documents)

With my current Android device this is what it happens:

- I can sync using HTC Sync only the contacts (as calendar is only supported if your account is Exchange)

- I cannot surf the WEB as ther is no support for WiFI proxy.

- I cannot configure an Exchange account as ther is no way of importing/installing a certificate

- In order to modify Office documents I need to pay for an app.

I would appreciate if somebody:

- Has encountered same problems as me

- Has any clue about the eventual fix of this issues

I apologize for the long post. Many thanks in advance

There is no such thing as "wifi proxy". You can however configure HTTP proxy on your phone via ADB.

Exchange: In my company the IMAP access is disabled.

Office: For sure, but I would prefer to save for a dinner.

Amon_RA: Can you recommend me one of them (donut version, spanish linguage) ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Amon_RA:
You'll not find a donut HTC branded sapphire yet... you'll need to wait a while for those.

For cupcake roms I recommend you to NOT use those ported HERO Roms. They will run slow on sapphire devices and are actually just ported to show off with the sense interface (which is not yet released for the sapphire). They are definitely not suited to be used in a corporative environment.

I advice you to look for a stable HTC sapphire rom which has the HTC framework (so full exchange support).
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Joaquin Marcide:
Thanks Amon_RA.

Where can I find those ROMS? Looking in XDA and on Internet all ROMs seem to be either Google or Hero ports. I did not manage to find "HTC branded Sapphire" . By the way my device is a Vodafone Magic Spain with:

If you install the cyanogen rom to your phone it gives you an app called work email. This lets you connect to the microsoft exchange server to get your email :)

As for word documents and the like check out an application called quickoffice:

I can't find it on the android market so you must have to get it direct from their site.

Hi all, for those organisations that participated in the Exchange Server 2010 Beta there was a new version of Outlook Mobile for PPC 6.0 and 6.1 devices (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=4419902).

This version supported the text messaging sync, but also had an improved interface for navigating your mail folders as shown in the link.

However the install would fail on a 6.5 device. I managed to unpackage the install and get it on to my 6.5 device, but it crashed each time.

I presumed this version would come with 6.5, and although this does contain a new version of OM with support for text sync'ing, it doesn't have the UI ... so can anyone help?
