Hi there,

Why don't you use Shure SE530? It may not have the controls you are looking for ... but the sound ... ... just makes you forget all the things you have "thought" you wanted =)
[HD2 Accessories] -Vulture-:
Cause i dont want to spent half of the money the HD2 cost me for a pair of headphones :D God damnit, those things are expensive!:eek:

I wanna have the best of both worlds, thats why i would like to see this remote control with a separate 3,5mm jack for my own headphones...
[HD2 Accessories] tomksoft:
I won Zagg headphones - good sound quality and it has a control button and hardware volume control. The button works with HD2 - you can stop/pause in the HTC Player. I did not check what it does during a call.
[HD2 Accessories] rich_13:
HTC <3's us..

http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/cy/p_htc_item.aspx?i=188904

ah! no play / pause button :-(
[HD2 Accessories] -Vulture-:
Yeah, i found those ones too...but sadly no play/pause...
[HD2 Accessories] :
On the headphones that are included the answer/hangup button also performs the play/pause function. So I think they should work for you. Just no Fast Frorward/Rewind/Skip function.
[HD2 Accessories] 20mihalko:
maybe you can try bluetooth headset. I have Samsung SBH-500, sound quality is brilliant, and it have controls exactly what you need... (plus volume controls :))
[HD2 Accessories] -Vulture-:
Yeah, i know that...but doesnt matter if the headphones on this headset are crap (no in ears -> crap for me ;) )
[HD2 Accessories] :
I agree! That's why I took out the soldering iron (and looking glass) and mounted my Sennheiser CX400-II's on the control unit of the standard headphones.

What I meant to say was that the HS U350 set may work for you because the one button should probably have the same double function as the middle one on the standard headphones
[HD2 Accessories] Donald24:
Great tip!

So you don't even lose microphone, because it's in this button housing right? First time, that you can do something with this equipment ;)
[HD2 Accessories] -Vulture-:
Yeah, maybe thats the only choice we have left, if HTC is not able to get another type of headset out in the next weeks...
[HD2 Accessories] vermania:
wont chopping and soldering headphones create massive oxidisation of the lead. Not to mention the increases resistance for the signal to go through poor quality copper cable then suddenly in to good quality OFC copper.

You'd probably lose 50% of the quality the Sennheiser are supposed to punch out.
[HD2 Accessories] tregba:
If controlling music is the problem then you will either need to solder an existing control pad onto your headphones or use something like the rce100 that lets you use your own headphones.

If it's just the mic you need then you will probably be able to use your headphones as I've currently got the westone um3x (which has no inbuilt) mic attached to the hd2 and the phone automatically routes calls to the hd2's inbuilt mic when i'm listening to music with mortplayer. So provided your hd2 isn't out of reach you will be able to listen through your headphones and talk through the handset like on Nokias.
[HD2 Accessories] Pixel:
Does anyone know of anyone who creates mic/music controls that take your own headphones that might work? Doesn't the iFone support this? If I have to settle for play/pause only I will, but I'd like to keep the track skip if at all possible.

I have a pair of Bose earphones which are really nice, but it's much easier to hit the pause on the HTC 'phones when someone wants to distract me in work than turn the screen on, go back to the music screen, then hit pause.
[HD2 Accessories] rickgillyon:
I have one of these from MobileFun:

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/apple-iphone-stereo-handsfree-adapter-p15226.htm

Less than £12. It has vol slider and call/answer, you plug in your own phones. The call button works as play/pause in WMP, Sense and PocketPlayer, but haven't been able to get it working in MortPlayer. If anyone has any tips for getting it working in MortPlayer I'd appreciate it!

with this cab you can use an iphone cable right??? that was what i was looking for!! thanks a lot!

but it also takes calls etc too right?
[HD2 Accessories] rickgillyon:
You don't need any extra cab to make the talk/play/pause button work. It just works.
[HD2 Accessories] MadBastard:
no it doesnt with only talk button ,but with this .cab it does
[HD2 Accessories] rickgillyon:
This is just a standard iPhone headset adapter (as is yours but I haven't used yours). I'm using it. It works for talk/play/pause, and I haven't installed any cab to make it work. It works just the same as the standard HTC one.
[HD2 Accessories] horskj:
I went this route too; asuming I'm understanding you right. Didn't fance the £20+ for the U350 so got a genuine G335 from eBay for about £6 and cut off the phones; soldered on a 3.5mm socket in place & bingo, can now use my Sennheisers (or whatever), & still keep HTC controls.
[HD2 Accessories] idonxda:
hi, But does g335 have volume controls?
[HD2 Accessories] idonxda:
Also did you get 3.5mm with 4 wires, cause i can't find which can have 4 wires to be soldered, it only takes 2 o3?
[HD2 General] htc-hd2:
I need some suggestions on what applications is best to use for keeping track of birthdays?

It would also be nice that the applications auto sends a SMS message to the person is question :-)
[HD2 General] Xaddict:
Birthday app

This is not really worth a new thread, but would belong in Q & A type thread like this.

But to answer your question, I would not use anything else but the HTC Sense contacts app called people. You have the choice of entering a birthday or an anniversary. You can set the reminder to between 1 minute and 3 weeks or so.

Sense also links to facebook which also has birthdays.

Sorry, didn't read part B.

It's possible to do this but would require some serious work by a programmer.

There are auto sms apps around.
[HD2 General] Robrecht:
You can set a reminder? I haven't seen that anywhere in the people app, please explain how!
[HD2 General] cu2cool:

[HD2 General] TicKByT:
^^^ What he said!!!
[HD2 General] blackb1ade:
Seriously unimpressed so far.

This thing has hung 5 or 6 times at least today (day 3....) and about the same yesterday

If this keeps up, I'm binning it and reverting to HD

Unbelievable!
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
What did you do ? Any pattern ?
[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
Not much info there, my pictures hang up... on the wall everyday.

What are you doing? What have you been doing? Is it due to memory being full (as apps aren't closing)
[HD2 General] NSAgent:
Maybe I'm not hip to the slang but what do you mean it "hangs" or "hung"?
[HD2 General] stargate1000:
You must have a duff unit!

Well mine has been completely spot on!

Maybe its something you have installed causing issues? Try uninstalling things one by one to see if that rectifies any problems you may have.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
"Hangs" means "crashes" or, more precisely "becomes completely and permanently unresponsive to anything less than a soft reset".
[HD2 General] blackb1ade:
Possibly - and yeah, I know, that's next port of call TBH - it's just really pissing me off at the moment - NONE of my other HTC devices have ever behaved like this.

Just for the record, I've figured out exactly WHAT makes it hang - I open file explorer and navigate to the 'Windows' folder - bang....I get the rotating four colours and it's back off/battery out AGAIN

Thus far I've only installed Kinomaplay (which ISN'T behaving as it should IMO....although it performs it's media functions perfectly)

Coreplayer - which works ok

SPB Time - again, works 'ok' (both are really f..king fiddly to use/setup with this screen - which is ANOTHER thing I'm not impressed with at all - I've had an iPhone in the past - [capacative] screen response was perfect - this one?? have to jab at it several times sometimes to get the desired result and accuracy just isn't good for smaller targets)

One thing I have noticed is - I've only installed those 3 programs but almost all the device memory is used up!?? Unsure if that would cause an issue with it hanging and I've had loads more than this installed onto mt HD and was nowhere near the device memory limitations.

Hmmm....
[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
I really would consider that you may have a duff unit. There are loads of peoeple on here who advise the screen is too responsive! Plus the lack of memory sounds like the biggest issue.

When you navigate to the windows folder, do you actually let it load or do you just leave it? Reason I ask is that there are thousands of files in there and it does take a while to read them. It did on my HD anyway.

Seems like when reg edits have been done to get task manager working how we are all used to it, should be working better.

Oh, software is made for resistive screens so some presses wont register as the software is more than likely looking for a more presice tap rather than a finer splodged over the actual area its looking for a response in. Should be fine later down the line when more things are brought to capacitive screens.

Hope it all works out for ya :)
[HD2 General] blackb1ade:
That is true - the menus are a little small for finger use - so it will be a case of waiting I guess.

I removed all the progs that I'd installed already (includng 'microsoft my phone' - forgot about that one)

Screen is very responsive most of the time - but then sometimes it just seems to space out- almost like you catch it off guard - not what I'd expect frankly

It does eventually load the windows folder in explorer - but it takes about 2 1/2 mins to do so - no other folder does that to it, nor any other action - and it wasn't doing that up until yesterday

Hard reset next [if i can figure out how...] - if that doesn't yield significant improvement then it's back to TCR for an exchange (provided some more units have turned up by now!!)

Cheers though :)
[HD2 General] owz206:
Definitely a problem there, my windows folder loads instantly.
[HD2 General] weepatc:
+1 ...... Mine loads in a split second
[HD2 General] kersh:
My phone doesnt hangs, but my /windows folder takes about 1/2 minutes in load.
[HD2 General] tnyynt:
No problems here either. One recommendation though for those with slow file list loading: try to enable and up the caches (which are stock) with Advanced Config. You will gain some more speed!
[HD2 General] blackb1ade:
Hard reset and we're back to full speed again - I guess it was one of the programs that was screwing it up - thanks all for the 'benchmark'

I'm a bit suspicious that it was kinomaplay, as that was [occasionally]interfering with other operations by overlaying itself on top at times and was hard to get out of that loop as the 'X' [close] box wasn't always *really* there (only shown on screen but no actual function)

I might try it[kinomaplay] again - only this time try and figure out why it associates itself with image files that I'd rather the OE windows prog opened.

Thanks for the tip on Adv.Config Tnyynt - TBH I'd not tried to load that one yet, I'll try that in a sec though (it was a godsend on the HD)

There was definitely something funny going on with the memory space on the device, as after the hard reset I'm back up to '116MB free of 181MB' - whereas, even once I'd uninstalled all that had been added - and deleted additional ringtone wavs - I only managed to get a max. of 53MB available showing.
[HD2 General] custardo01:
Sounds like Kinomaplay is searching and associating with files in the background. I think it may be set to do that by default but you can tell it not to in the settings - only trouble is you may have to wait for it to do it's thing as not sure if you can interrupt it. I got so fed up with the programme on the HD I trashed it - lovely interface though:cool:
[HD2 General] Crazy-G:
Strange thing with Windows folder loading, with the "normal" Explorer it takes my device a very long time too (first few times did a soft reset because i thought it was hung also), but with Total Commander explorer the Windows folder is there instantly, sounds like Explorer runs into something, just have to figure out what though.

Crazy . . . . . . . . . . .
[HD2 General] kostasalfa:
Mine takes just a split second to load windows folder!

But it crashes 2 - 3 times a day! Without doing nothing! When i try to unlock it, screen wont go on! Battery off, here we go again! And i got the no sound problem.. After 3-5 calls, i car hear what others are saying but they cant hear a word from me!! This is happening all time.. (tested all this even with stock rom and no apps installed or any tweak etc..)

I read here in the forums that other people have similar problems..And in italy the distribution stopped because of defected rom??

Some say it heppened in france too.. (allthough i live in greece, i got mine sent from france, expansys headquarters..)

So maybe its roms problem? Or just me having a possible defected device..?

Any of you with freezing problems etc..??
[HD2 General] drfroz:
Some hangs and freezes in here too, latest was this morning when I had my phone plugged in the charged over night. I tried waking up the phone to check time so I press the power button: Button lights go on but no image on screen, had to take out battery and restart the phone.

Also I have had a few random hangs that required a soft reset too. I have installed the Electopia demo and the OpenGL speed tester. Also installed .net compact framework 3.5 because an app from marketplace said to require it.

I hope HTC takes care of this issues in an upcoming rom update! Otherwise the phone seems fine, although maybe a bit slower that I've seen in the pre-production reviews and videos which is odd...
[HD2 General] kostasalfa:
I noticed that the hangs have something to do with the charging of the phone,no matter if its via usb or power pluged. Thanks for confirming though.. This is MAJOR issue for me..You think that your phone is ok in your pockets but it is shut down!!

About the sound problem i mentioned before?

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exodeity:
So this all started after I flashed Cyan4.2.4 on my G1, (I usually get 4 bars of 3g where I am ) and now I usually get that when I turn my phone on, but after a good 1-4 minutes, I have no service at all, I can't call anyone, and I have no contacts from sync. After another 5 minutes, I get full service, then it cuts out again after another 5 minutes.

When I try to search for available networks via wireless controls, it finds T-Mobile, and it connects, but still for only that 3-4 minutes, and it tries to sync, but I still have nothing.

I haven't dropped my phone, or opened it, or anything else that I think might mess up the internals of it, I tried flashing Dwang, cyan 4.2.3.1, and some other randomly picked roms to see if they work, and I get all the same things happening.

Is this something at T-Mobile? Is it my phone? Am I an idiot? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I rely on my phone for a lot of things.

Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
It sounds like your SIM card is loosing conection with the terminals. Try opening up the back, and slipping a piece of a business card between the all plastic side of the SIM card and the housing, this will press it down into place better.

If that doesn't resolve the issue, go to your local shop and get a replacement SIM/test someone elses SIM first to see if it does the same thing.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exodeity:
I tried what you did, and testes someone elses sim card, but I still get the same problems.

I haven't dropped my phone or anything else that would mess up the internals.

Is there any way for me to revert back to the original (unrooted) firmware, I have the danger SPL, so I can't really downgrade that dreamingh file ( or whatever it is, IDR off hand ) Or is there a 1.6 version of that with the newest radio I can flash without worry? I want to see if it works on that...

Thanks for the help, I really hope it's not something internal, I can't really afford a new phone, and this one I got on ebay, so I'm sure T-Mobile won't help >.<
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:

I've been using Manila 2d on my Omnia (original ROM) for quite some time, but as it is installed on the "device", I've been living memory problems. Is there a version that would work when installed on the "Storage Card" or on "My Storage"?

If not, any recommendation of a similar interface program that would work from "My Storage" or "Sorage Card"?

Would appreciate a comprehensive reply please.
[General Questions and Answers] taeksoo:
I don't think it can be installed other then main memory.

I've seen similar things being done on other HTC phones but from what I remember it was pretty hard to install... now that I got Omnia, I use this and it works just fine.

It's lot of installations and reboots.. but, follow the instructions to the dot and you should be fine.

T-mobile touch pro2 has 3G in 2100 Mhz band. Does this mean that it will get 3G in europe, where networks support the 2100 umts?

i have read this phone has the AWS system (1700 + 2100 bands for ul/dl) but does it also have the "regular" 2100Mhz band for 3g in europe and asia?

I use an app Resco Audio Recorder. It has a feature where you can set it to record all calls and it has an option whereby you can save it in several formats to either your device of SD.

" RingingAddressId" =0
