[General Topics] HTC Touch Freak:
I feel like if that's WM7 it's a fail. I hope it's not. And what makes me think it's a fake is why have Battery and volume bars on the bottom. If i were batterey and signal than I'd beleive it. And why are there 2 different styles of those bottom bars.

It looks like nothing new but a erskinned WM6.5. I say it's a different buildof 6.5. Mebe 6.5.2?
[General Topics] Cyclops hammer:
Android > Windows for the moment.... Graphically Android owns, windows will have to put out a spectacular GUI for me to buy another WM equipped phone.
[General Topics] galaxys:
Just give me WM6.5.1 to play with for now:cool:; WM7 is just to far out in the future :rolleyes:
[General Topics] HTC Touch Freak:
+1. I will stick with my TD2 for now. Android port should be coming soon to it. My next phone though will definitly be an Android specific phone. Especially if WM7 is a fail.
[General Topics] qumani:
I am stuck right now

The 3 things that have been keeping me from Android are

1. Carrier availability (cant get 3g on ATT w/ Tmo devices)

2. Past resolution (most droids are HVGA)

3. Processor speed (waiting for 1Ghz)

I would love to have android if it would meet the things that I need. For the time being I am trying the current Raphael Android ports.

Maybe something will come out around xmas that I want. Hate to leave my network, but oh well.
[General Topics] HTC Touch Freak:
Those things are coming soon. Well probably not to AT&T but WVGA 480x800 with 1Ghz and well android goodness. Just wait 3-6 months. Mebe even sooner. I'm waiting for a device that is nice (equivilant to the original Hero) with all the above mentioned.

Mebe look into the Acer Liquid. It is just like the neotouch but is supposed to run android. But rumor has it that it runs an Underclocked Snapdragon Processor. (800Mhz)
[General Topics] JRK-Scope:
The Moto Droid is looking nice. Hopefully it will be open enough that maybe it will be added to the device base here (highly unlikely methinks).
[Mogul, XV6800 General] TeleFragger:
well it seems that I cleaned up my install directory for my phone the other day.. to realize that I deleted some stuff I didnt want to.

All in all I am missing the

HTC Sliding app... u know where it shows under programs so you can change your slide sounds.... it also had the light saber in and out, transformers, etc....

anyone have a link to them handy?

i searched high and low... maybe missed them but cant find it..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] AstarteSV:
Sorry, for asking this, I've looked and searched but couldn't find anything.

Is there any way to force the Manila Today screen to show appointments that go further than today or the next day. TBH I think I liked regular WiMo calender today plugin because it shows appointments that are as far as a week away, however I really enjoy using TF3D and I really like the look of it's "Today" screen.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
I don't get it, at first I was thinking maybe I had exited programs that I didn't recall having done so, but now I'm convinced that something is killing programs on my Tilt 2. For instance I'll download something in PIE, open it in Resco Explorer and go back to PIE and it's closed, I have to re-open it.. or I'll browse somewhere in Resco, launch a program, and when I go back to Resco it's closed..

Unfortunately things like Flexmail this is happening on as well.. It's running for a while then I look and it's no longer running.

Anyone have any guesses? The thing has 70M+ of ram free, often more! My Tilt never had more than 30M free and it never did this crap unless I ran something really big like iGO.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Toleraen:
Load up Schap's Advanced Config and go to HTC Task Manager --> Memory Threshold. Mine is defaulted to 9.5MB which seems a little high (at least coming from my Hermes). Not sure if that's it or not, because as you say there's usually quite a bit of free memory. Might have a leaky program though which is causing the closures.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
I wouldn't think so, as I'm not seeing any memory creep or anything like that, seeminly for zero reason programs are being killed. I agree it's likely a memory threshold, etc..

I run a memory monitor that draws a bar at the top of the screen called qwertymemory so I see how much ram is in use all the time. I HAVE seen nasty programs where the bar will start dropping in the past, but I have yet to see that on my Tilt 2. And as you say, why would this happen with 60-70M free?

Yeah, my memory is also (near, odd number...) 9M. I'm half tempted to turn off "Auto Kill" and see if the problem goes away.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dik23:
I've been having a similar problem but only with Opera so not sure if it's connected.

When multiple tabs are open and I go into the start menu or such like (Opera is never on screen) it exits without notification. Didn't used to.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
I like Opera to browse, but I wish it wouldn't run at boot, I haven't yet figured out what starts it up after a reset. I need to at least do the registry tweak to be able to kill it I guess.. Lots of ram there.

But I haven't used it that much to notice that.. but it makes me wonder if there isn't some kind of crazy problem that's either killing or crashing programs.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Zakkie:
I have had the problem with messenger, with no other programs running - I thought it was me going mad (again) :D

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
Sweet, thanks! I wonder if this matters since I'm not using TF3D but I'm going to try it regardless.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
Okay, this is totally pissing me off. Today I went out geocaching, and with my Tilt here's what I typically did:

With 35-40M free ram: Ran GeoNiche in Styletap, ran TrackMe, and Tom Tom. Tracked my progress, navigated via car from cache to cache, then zeroed in on the cache with Styletap. I didn't have to do anything kludgy, this was on top of my normal load of programs, including some fairly large things like S2U2, KaiserNotify, lots of Today plugins, etc.. Again, 35-40M free ram typically.

Same exact scenario with my Tilt 2 with 75-90M of free ram I could not run all three programs at once without one of them exiting. Never did my ram go below 50M free. I disabled the HTC Task autokill thing in Advanced Config (and soft reset) and it didn't change things.. This is driving me batty.

Anyone have any other suggestions? I wouldn't think so, but is it a possible max programs limitation I'm running into?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
Crap, I just noticed that without any extra programs running, MemMaid said there were 27 processes. As I understand it, Windows Mobile has a limit of 32, so I bet that's what was causing me trouble earlier. :(

I've just killed a few non-essential things (qwertymemory, arialbattery, ms voice control, opera9, tmail) and left the rest (including s2u2) and launched TomTom, GeoNiche (in styletap), GCzII, TrackMe.. All running fine now, at least for the moment.

I guess I need to optimize what's running at boot.. Meh.

Yep, I'm getting pretty convinced that's what's going on. I've just booted my Kaiser and it has 23 processes at bootup, gives a lot more headroom for new processes. I have my Tilt 2 down to 23 now, with some sacrifices. :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dik23:
WM has a limit of 32 processes ?! Why ?!

What's the point of all that RAM then ? The likely hood of me ever video editing on my phone is rather low since I own a real computer to do that stuff.

Microsoft will never cease to confuse me with their strange ways
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
Read the link I put in there, it explains it... The next base of WinCE fixes it, but traditionally it's 32. Why? Who knows... It's not a big deal until you find that with a normal installation with a few programs you're sitting at around 28-29. :(

I've still found it blowing away apps sometimes, I think sometimes there's just one or two more things that happen in the background (weather updates, maybe gpstoday, who knows) and one of my apps goes poof. I have it down to 24 at startup now too. :( But after a while various other things sneak into it and I find it around 27-28 again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dik23:
Just had another look and can't see a link. Sorry if I'm being dumb
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
Must have been in another thread I posted it.. Search the whole forum for windows mobile 32 processes and you'll find several references, although I can't find the thread I found with concrete info.. It's clearly 32....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jinx1:
take from storage mem and use for program ram?

I have had the same things going on I have although been at times idling from 59% to 79% this is if I clean ram 3 do not open any programs and check the phone after 15 min or so. I have been searching for a way to increase the program ram size from 173.3mb to over 200mb taking from storages 266.3 if need be. as of now I have "reg edit hklm/software/htc/resproxy/sharememsize=0" and that has helped a lot but I install only what I really need to in phone storage so I would really like to make more use of it by dedicating it to program ram. :op
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khaytsus:
My issue, as far as I know, really had nothing to do with ram.. It was processes.

I still have this problem sometimes, but it's NOWHERE as bad as it was before I removed a few things I really didn't need and have my 'typical' process load down to around 25.

BTW, I've heard of people having problems after changing the shared mem size to 0, one I think was related to multiple tabs in Opera.. Just keep it in mind.

Do you really have that much problem with free ram? I never had any problem with my Tilt and I typically had 25-30m at any time, and on my Tilt 2 I generally have 60-70m... Accounting (guestimating) for additional space for WVGA graphics I'd think that's more than equivalent..

hey ppl,

i am still looking for an app that is able to record from audio streams, something like streamripper. I spend lots of time on trains and reception is not so good. Would be good if I could record when I dont move to listen (again) if I do. I know it has been ported to the iphone. Is it possible to cross-compile this simple app? If so, how?

Thanks!

BTW: pls dont assume I steal music this way! I have bought a lot of music that I discovered listening to on line stations...

Hi

today wanted to flash my PVT32A with the new Taiwan rom with Sense .

I got the rom.zip file from htc , unzipped it and the just got dumb! tested to flash the new radio only (bad habit from old WM days)

fastboot flash radio radio.img

went well and then I restared the device

===> boot loop

I said OK! then I flashed it one more time

same command

Fastboot uploaded the radio.img to the phone and then the phone started to write it and just there the screen goes black!!!

I have the eng spl s-off

I tried to flash the old radio ===> SAME RESULT!

i testet fastboot erase radio

and then flashed again with same result.

any suggestion ? you don't need to explain every thing as a very very short hint/instruction will be appreciated too!

Edit

Fastboot boot recovery.img boots up and the menu comes up , one sec later it reboots!

[HD2 General] THE GRIZZ:
i find it a very weird (and potentially a major problem) design decision that HTC left out the front camera for 3G video call. they have had them in all 3G phones since the universal (2005). why on earth would they stop it. is it really hard to add that front camera in that small place

is there a technical limitations preventing that?

will it be possible to hack in a video call dialer that uses the back camera

i imagine that there will be no need to even enable the power hungry 3G radio most of the time. it makes sense to only temporarily enable it if you are planning to stay browsing for a while
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
I for one won't miss it. I have only ever used it once and that was to test it. You can never guarentee you're going to be in a 3g area or the person you are calling is. I have used the camera on the front of the Touch Pro to take pictures of me with my kids etc, and it takes better pictures than the main one.
[HD2 General] Teneka_Khan:
Never used one and probably never will. Not a great loss from my point of view
[HD2 General] niknik76:
I would think it would be pretty crucial if one wanted to use it for communicating with sign language.

Other than that I never really meet people that actually use it. Would be interesting to see some statistics about this. My thought is that very few people use it but I may be wrong.

QWERTY keyboard - you gotta be kidding me!

Now no manufacturer will put every single available hardware feature in a phone. It's never happened. It'll never happen! So...which of the features that HTC have included would you be willing to sacrifice for your front camera? Or your TV out? QWERTY keyboard?

And if those features are so important to you then which of the features that are included in the HD2 are you willing to sacrifice in favour of another model?

I'm sure if we did a poll things like TV out and a front camera would be bottom of most peoples' lists of "must haves".
[HD2 General] chris10230:
Lets do it :) and find out but yeh what you say is true never gonna happen

On the note i have never used to front video camera on mine atm so no loss. Also the video out cool idea but honestly the amount of times id use it i dotn really care, never had it so never gonna miss it kinda thing
[HD2 General] galaxys:
I never needed TV out and a front camera. This bad boy hd2 is so loaded with great specs that I like :) It will be a must have for me (and many other buyers) :cool:
[HD2 General] Dark Fire:
No, they haven't had them in all 3G phones - their Android devices are good examples. It's just a choice they made when designing the HD2 - most of the general public (including myself) have no real use for video calling. It's a nice thing to fiddle with once or twice, but being able to see someone is not at all helpful. Of course, there will be a small minority who really miss the feature, but you must remember that HTC is mainly interested in growing fast at the moment - adding a front-facing camera would make the phone (slightly) bigger and more expensive, and it certainly would not make the HD2 sell significantly better.

I have no idea about a dialer designed to use the back-facing camera - that would be pretty nice if it was managed. It might be a bit more complicated than that though...
[HD2 General] omaga:
Must say the same as Teneka_Khan, has never use video call and will never use. For me that is completly useless
[HD2 General] Loco5150:
I have every month 3000min of free video calls on my contract and even though I have used the video call function only once in last years, I still want to have the video call option on my devive and dialer... I now, there must be something wrong with me...
[HD2 General] why_999:
+1 I'm one of those buyers :D
[HD2 General] ToddeSwe:
I was VERY disappointed when i noticed that there was no videocall cam at the front. Even though i never use it :) The thing is that when you buy i 3G phone today for that amount of money you expect to have a front cam.

There is moments when it's very useful to have.

I almost canceled my pre order because of this :)
[HD2 General] aiwama:
One day people will understand that if a mobile phone has got ALL the tools that everybody wants the manufacturers will be in trouble. Have you seen how much money Apple has made with the iPhone? :eek: Why didn't they start with an 8 or 10 MPX camera? They had only 2 MPX and sold like hot-cakes. They upped it to only 3 MPX and, still, sold even more! Are they capable to have a decent camera? Of course they are! :p So, why don't they have it? Because - and only because - people like some of you will buy a brand new, slightly tweaked, mobile every few months! And this makes them a lot of money! Keep buying them, chaps! We'll NEVER have the complete, perfect, mobile because the likes of HTC, Apple, Nokia, Sumsung, Sony Ericsson, etc, are not inclined to give us everything in one go. Can you get it? :mad: If you want a front camera go and buy a mobile with a front camera; there are dozens of them. The HD2 DOESN'T have one. BUT has lots of other stuff that you cannot find somewhere else. Probably the HD3 or 4 or 5 will have the camera some of you so much crave - even though you never, ever used it! You know what are the HD2 specs. Don't like them? Move on! HTC is not going to install one in the next incarnation of the HD range just because you are pissed off with them... If this model sells well, of course they will have something better next time - but the "bettering" will be done in their own (future financial) terms. I am not criticizing them! I would do the same if it made sense, financially, to my company...
[HD2 General] precsmo:
I don't agree! Touch HD has everything if you were making an argument here. Why couldn't HD2 do the same, this is kinda dissapointment, but I will get HD2 whether it has or doesn't with a front camera. It was a huge dissapointment to me too and I don't think we are expecting too much. But I can compromise that. And it is not a huge problem without front camera, we just have to stay with HD2 without the fun video call that most of the users seldom use.
[HD2 General] aiwama:
Does the Touch HD have a 1GHz processor? No! Is it as thin as the HD2? No! Does it have the Sense UI? No! Does it have tethering? No! Is the screen as big? No! Does it have a capacitive screen? No! If the HD2 had EVERYTHING that the Touch HD has, nobody would carry on buying the latter! The (very few) lovers of front cameras will still go for it. Others, me included, will upgrade and move on to the HD2. And 99% of our time with it will be to make and receive phone calls and play and show off. How many of us really, really, use Office Mobile, or the FM Radio, or the MP3 Trimmer, or the Voice Recorder, or even the Video Camera on a regular basis? Would you kill yourselves if you had a mobile without all these things? Ten years ago (not even that longer) we all survived without them... :cool:
[HD2 General] mr_Ray:
You have it completely and utterly wrong. I don't know why there are so many paranoid people who think the phone manufacturers are out to get them, plotting their evil plans to screw you over.

That isn't how it works.

Think about it - if some mythical phone company made the "perfect" (that's a whole other discussion!) device, they would grab close to 100% of the market. Put the slightest of effort into understanding basic logic and ask yourself why HTC would setting for a fraction of the Windows Phone market, which in turn is but a fraction of the entire phone market, when you claim they could make a "perfect" device, which would give them market dominance? Oh no, just to screw you, one paranoid little customer over, they choose to make rubbish phones. Sheesh.

Why no front camera? First, look at just about every response here and everywhere else - as much as video calling has been hyped, next to nobody uses it! I was one of those who thought at first "wow what an oversight" but after a few seconds thought - not really. It's an extra cost that doesn't have to be passed on to the consumer, it's less electronics and optics that need to fit in, so we get a thinner, lighter device with more room for a bigger screen.

Percentage of people who "need" a video camera on the front? 1% maybe. Percentage of people who appreciate a cheaper, smaller, more robust device with more room for a bigger screen? 99%. Do the flippin' maths.

Apply the same for everything else. What are the costs of including feature X? What are the benefits? What percentage of people will be attracted/put off by this feature being present/absent, and how many more units will the sell if they can lower the price by not including it?

Now doesn't that make so much more sense than "bwahahaha what features can we deliberately leave out to piss people off, so we get fewer customers and make less money! Hahaha I am an illogical evil overlord who loves to lose money!"?

Logic, people... it's not a swear word.
