Hi guys, tried to search this issue here but seems noone had posted previously, yet I'm sure many of you has heard it.

Just read this:

http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/10/10/t-mobile-we-probably-lost-all-your-sidekick-data/

http://pocketpcthoughts.com/news/show/95545/sidekick-user-data-microsoft-servers-ate-it.html

http://blogs.reuters.com/felix-salmon/2009/10/12/how-the-sidekick-fiasco-is-microsofts-fault/

Sounds familiar? I think many of you must have had issues with Activesync overwriting active and full content of your PIM database with NULL values? I had several occasions already... :eek: which is why now I always sync my device to more than one PC, just in case, how impractical

And Micro$oft are now offering the new, free, yet beta, MyPhone to sync your device to the cloud. And with the launch of 6.5, the new Windows Marketplace... (which already has "hole" on how one can save the .cab for later use or distribute)

Any thoughts on how secure and reliable these services will be....? I'm in seriously deep-state of losing my faith to their products/services.......

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] blueuk808:
Hi - I've just bought a new car stereo and a Kenwood bluetooth handsfree unit to go with it. Having problems actually using my TytnII with the unit - there's quite a few posts on the net describing the issue:

Phone syncs, address book becomes available, you choose the contact, call, nothing happens, phone starts downloading again, 5 minutes the address book is available, try ringing and it repeats.

Looking at the Kenwood site, it says that the unit is compatible with 1.56.405.5 Rom. I've updated my phone with cooked Roms from here, and I'm thinking I now have another version.

My question is - is it possible to reinstall the 1.56.405.5 Rom, and what's the thoughts on this being a solution to the problem?

Any help is greatly appreciated
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] epica:
I too have the same problem. I have bought a Kenwood DDX8034BTM and the bluetooth firmware version shown is 1.70 and my ROM version is 1.81.415.4WWE. It does connect and downloads the phonebook however, when I disconnect a call the bluetooth disconnects. Desperately looking for a solution.
[HTC Excalibur] hewhoisnotasothers:
Warning: if you do not follow the steps to the letter....you can brick your phone and have to hard reset

You can make your own custom icons for your phone by following these steps:

(I will use the start menu icon as an example)

1) find an image you want to use

2) use an image editing program (included in post) to make it the proper size and format (for the start menu icon it has to be a .ico 25x25 32-bit graphic). Most programs have a resize option...the one I included in this post allows you to resize, and save in a variety of formats (instructions on how to install the icon plugin for the program are in the icocur.zip file...just unzip both archives , and install the program to use). Just go to the image tab, select "resize" and put in the desired pixel size. Next, go to the file tab and select "save as", and select the desired file format. If you are replacing another icon on the phone you can always look at the resolution and file format using your resource editor to assure you have the right size and format.

3) use the instructions in this thread to put the icon into the .dll resource file (for the start menu icon it is #18 in tapres.dll found in the /windows directory...just copy to desktop and edit)

4) DO NOT FORGET TO DIGITALLY SIGN THE FILE USING THE SIGNER IN THE THREAD LINKED ABOVE

5) copy the revised file back to the windows directory (either using activesync, or resco, or total commander)

6) reboot...and you have a new icon

Just from what I have tinkered with...i think cmhomeres.dll has something (but that may only be txt, not pix)....but for sure bronzeres.dll...venture around the windows folder...some DLL's may have images, i don't know all of them :-P
[HTC Excalibur] big.brother:

[HTC Excalibur] neocorpse:
ok well I followed the tutorial to the letter and bricked twice now. I'm using a T-Mobile Dash 3G/winmo 6.5 official rom. Is there a way to do this WITHOUT bricking? Thank you.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
May need to install sdkcert. *not sure about the 3G*
[HTC Excalibur] neocorpse:
holy crap I thought this thread was dead, and WHAM a ninja appears!! Thank you styles I appreciate the quick response. I'm not really sure how to install the certs. Are those what came in the file editor suite?

Has it got to do with color info possibly? I don't mind fooling with the files provided all that happens is a hard reset is needed.

I've been going insane wanting to do global skinning for winmo 6.5 but with things like highlight it's not an image but a defined color bar. Plus I can't even begin to find the taskbar images to alter so....

PS. I didn't mean to sound ungrateful and petulant if I did in my earlier post. I was a bit angry at my phone...lol.

If you ever want to do some collaborative work let me know, I have years of skinning experience with several different devices and such.

EDIT: Ok, I think I know what you mean. There's a WM SDK Certs.cab that came with SmartToolKit rc09, will that work or should I try to find a newer one?

EDIT 2: Well I installed the certs from the file editor suite you provided, (both sdk and the certificate.cab and even switched from pe explorer to reshacker and it still bricked. Basically what the phone is doing is upon reboot it gets to the windows bootscreen and won't display the homescreen. I can hear the phone doing something when I scroll so I know it's not locked up completely but I can't access my homescreen and the PC fails to recognize it. Dunno what I am doing wrong but it's annoying none the less...lol.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RanT476:
Sup all i've been learning alot lately and it seems to be going good but i still dont kno it all so ofc ill come here and ask

Hero Rom

1. Does most of the Hero Roms(MLIGN,KiNgxKxROM,maxisma,ect.) support Ext4 and will work just as the other Ext's

2. Do they work with that Switchrom script/app w/e u wanna call it, say i wanted to switch back and forth from Cliq to Hero Roms

Cliq Rom

1. Does this work with Haykuro's SPL

2. Does this work with Ext4

3. Does it get along with Switchrom aswell say if i wanted to switch back and forth from Hero to Cliq Roms
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
Looks like most hero roms support ext2/3. KiNgxKxROM rom supports ext4. Ext4 is still real new so I would stick with ext3. Switchrom script should work with all roms cause it's just a script to help make switching roms easier. As far as the Cliq rom you are asking I assume you mean the blur rom. I believe (but not 100% sure) that you will need the "danger" spl. I didn't see it in the description of the rom. Most devs will post the requirements in there posts as of what the rom will need.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RanT476:
yea i ment blur but ya i should had checked the post i downloaded it awhile ago just see the requirements didnt flash it yet either so i dont kno and, whats the diffrence between ext3 and ext4 if you kno thx Super
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supremeteam256:
No problem. Both ext3 and ext4 both support journaling where ext2 doesn't making ext3 and ext4 safer to use than ext2. But you can read this from wiki to have a complete description

ext4

ext3

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rajuabju:
AT&T, in their typical way, pre-loaded the Tilt2 with tons of garbage bloatware. Free RAM is patheticly low, as is the roughly 100MB of storage space....

Is it possible to go about deleting stuff thats pre-installed, or is that going to require flashing a custom ROM?

Are there any ROM's available yet which keep all the critical components but remove all the garbage stuff so a user can choose to reinstall only what he wants via cab?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sklinger:
I sympathize with you on that. I couldn't take not being able to have more than 2 programs open without the task manager killing them. I ended up flashing to the latest NRG rom. The 2 tab opera limit was insane too.

I must say that the frustrations with doing this now include some keyboard functionality lost and the loss of the good ATT software. For instance, I can't download the ATT WiFi Hotspot software because I lost my ATT Media Mall.

Are you by chance able to post your opera proxy settings. I can try and grab the cab once I have these settings and share it with the forum.

Easiest way is to find opera.config or opera.ini and see if the settings are in there and copy to the forum. Also found if you type in opera:config in your address bar and look under proxy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sklinger:
Got these settings from a FUZE forum post:

[Proxy]

Use Proxy On Local Names Check=1

HTTP Server=wireless.cingular.com

HTTPS server=wireless.cingular.com

Use HTTP=1

Use HTTPS=1

Enable HTTP 1.1 for proxy=1

Seems to have done the trick. I'll upload the ATT Wifi Cab tonight when I'm home.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rajuabju:
Yea, I've also gone to the NRG ROM.... SO MUCH faster and so much more free RAM & ROM its insane.

its a real shame ATT loads so much junk on the phone. I know all carriers love to do that, but it just seems like the Tilt2 is particularly polluted with crapware.

Anyhow, now I'm happy...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] javahead76:
I sure miss AT&T :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rkub:
Just got my TP2 a few days ago and loaded the NRG Photon rom yesterday... Soo much faster than the AT&T rom... I did forget about the AT&T Wifi software though... There anyway to get that software back? Anyone have the cabs? Just fyi, there's an AT&T Keyboard fix cab out there now, just doesn't map the OK button...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] areilly:
had to jump through some hoops to get it downloaded, I attached the cab in this post;

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4748989&postcount=6

I have installed it, but haven't actually tried it out yet at a hotspot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ameiurus:
For you folks that installed the NRG rom: Did you find a keyboard .cab for the Tilt2 that is 100%?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rajuabju:
The existing keyboard cab fixes 98% of the issue.

The two buttons that dont map correctly are

1) OK button on the keyboard

2) PTT buton (below the volume on the side)

Both can be fixed by using Keyboard Config controller (do a search). I've been able to remap the PPT button, just waiting on someone to explain what to map the OK button to.

So ya, its a 2-step process but it can be 100% correctly functioning with the NRG or any other custom rom

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fortunz:
How much cheaper?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pinoymutt:
I remember reading somewhere else that people were mapping the OK button to some command like "Go Back" which some felt was the closest approximation to the OK button. As for the PTT button, a lot of people (including myself on the stock ROM) have mapped to the camera.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] thedon0369:
I mapped my PTT to screen rotate.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sklinger:
I'm finding that even with the latest cab, you still have to remap your bottom row function shortcuts. However, the biggest bother is that on the unlock screen and certain other applications, the top row is still read as the default TP2 number row. Perhaps we're still missing some settings.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pistou:
I did this myself at one point, but then had to do a hard reset. Now I don't have screen rotation as an option in the Settings -> Personal -> Buttons dialog, and I can't remember what I might have done to enable it. Help! (please)

[ edit ]

OK, either I'm blind or I did something, 'cause now the option is there. :confused::eek::(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xredjokerx:
i found a solution for the "ok" key..

you map the "ok" key first for anything on the Keyboard control/config program, update config, then uncheck the box and update again...

THEN, download AEB button Plus and install that, press add new key, press the ok key, and map that to "ok/close"... soft reset, and you're good to go, just dont mess with "ok" button on keyboard control program and you're good to go...

i also mapped long press on the "ok" key to open notes, :D

i had my PTT button mapped to Iphone today at first. For some reason iphone today loads up at start up although i specifically said no today plugin..lol im probally gonna map the Opera Mini 5 beta to the PTT button. yeah crud scraper is a good program to get rid of stock bloat ware. i had already deleted most manually but when i downloaded this program, it showed i had some bits n pieces left. i dont need sample music...lol i thought crud scraper would show all apps but i guess it only focuses on stock bloat ware. good enough, i already have tms uninstaller, clear temp, clean ram, and total commander, so im running pretty smoothly now with wayyyyyyyy more free RAM left during start up, idle , and during heavy use of phone compared to b4. by the way i have ATT tilt 2, stock rom, windows 6.5 professional, tf3d manilla v. 2.1... and loving it. i got rid of any trace of bloatware and added all the fixes on top of that like no push, data fix, sd card tune up, dynamic proxy, etc... this forum is definitely helpful when it comes to figuring out probs. or modding your phone.

CrudScraper download

This worked like a charm once I downloaded the .NET Compact Framework 3.5onto my computer directly from Microsoft.com. Once a ran the software on my computer, it automatically loaded the cab file into my Tilt 2 through ActiveSync 4.5. Then I went to the Tilt 2, found the CrapScraper program, clicked on it, and it immediately loaded the list of things to check off and "scrape away". I was able to rid my device of 11MB! Thank you kind soul who develped the software for our Tilt 2!

i have my Hero rooted, and I pushed Superuser.apk and everything is fine...

but, I can't make apps2sd working...

can anyone help me with this...

thanks a lot..
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steven__:
You'd probably have to be a bit more specific about what isn't working for people to be able to help you.

However, a common thing I've heard with apps2sd which might be your problem is the following: the phone actually has to store some of the application in the phone itself even if the majority of the application is on the SD card. Therefore it can appear like your application is on the phone even with apps2sd working properly. The way to check this would be to check how much space is available on the phone, download and install a large program from the market and then see if the decrease in space available on the phone is the same as the size of the program you downloaded.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstulanovic:
Well steve...

I formated my Hero last night, wiped it clean, and than i rooted it and pushed 'su' and 'Superuser.apk' and every thing is working. moved my cache into sd...

and i partitioned my 4GB SD card into 3 partitions:

1. 100MB Linux-swap

2. 512MB ext2

3. the rest into Fat32

I rebooted my Hero, it did recognize my SD.

but still apps2sd does not work...

1st edition of the application gives me that my SD isn't formatted properly and the second edition comes to the reboot button and doesn't reboot...

NOT WORKING

i can reformat my second partition (ext2) to ext3 or ext4 but don't know will it help...

Should I update my Firmware..?!

Thanks for ur time...

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salmanbodla:
I think rooting alone is not enough to get A2SD to work. You actually need the app A2SD in the /system/bin folder of your phone. Why don't you simply flash Modacos rom 2.6 which comes with automatic support for A2SD? For that, you would need Ext3 partition.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstulanovic:

if there any other tips to get apps2sd work with out flashing the rom it will be nice...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salmanbodla:
I can't think of a simpler way than the one I suggested. Seriously, it is very quick... all you need is to download the right stuff from these forum's (Hero Android Development) as well as the Android SDK so that you can use ADB (if required... that's actually optional). Can you not wait until your next day off ad try it then?
