Thats good news on the Youtube HD! Anyway here is the link to download morphgear: http://www.spicypixel.com/web/page/morphgear/Download.aspx

Fantastic bit of software emu that runs the SEGA MasterSystem, GameBoy Color, GameBoy Advance, NES, SNES, TurboGrafx-16, PC-Engine and SEGA Genesis/Megadrive all in one app. works ok on my HD but more power and multi-touch support is just what is needed I think.

Opera 9.7

Build 35541

Dunoo if turbo is enabled or not!
[HD2 General] AshHD:
On the megavideo walk through which mentions that the phone is running on the final retail rom. There is no opera turbo(beta or not) in the opera advanced settings.

9.5 it is i think - Don't think htc would realise the HD2 with opera in beta which 9.7 still is I believe

Are you able to do text selection from a webpage easily and paste it into Note or Word?
[HD2 General] Ben86:
if turbe is enabled/disabled you can check out in the settings ... there might be a point to set. If you dont see a turbo cache option it doesnt have turbe cache.

ALso if youtube hd works then that means that the HD2 can play 720p videos becasue that video was in 720. look at it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p27cLysfqYc

just to make sure check my screenshots. its the new opera beta on my diamond

[HD2 General] Shasarak:
No one on this thread is stupid enough to imagine otherwise. Please keep your unpleasant insinuations to yourself.

If you lack the capacity to understand why anyone would be interested in playing 720p video on the device anyway then obviously I'm sorry for you, but don't assume that everyone else is as intellectually limited as you are.

For the record, the reason why people are interested in doing it is because they would like to be able to download and store only a single copy of a video (in 720p) and then play it back without having to go through the hassle of transcoding it first. Some videos are only available in 720p format; and even if there's a lower-definition version available, it may well be a lot lower (e.g. a 624x351 xvid) and sourced from a standard-definition original rather than an HD original. If the HD2 were capable of playing back 720p directly (downscaling on the fly), the quality would likely be substantially better than you'd get from the low-res xvid. Even if good high- and low-res versions are available, it's still a pain to download both (so you can get HD playback on a desktop PC and SD on a phone). And, of course, if it's only available in 720p and it can't be played directly, then you have no choice but to transcode which gets very boring very quickly.

[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
Well said. And remember, not everyone on these forums is 100% tech savvy, so no, not everyone will know that 720p video's will have no difference on the phone!

[HD2 General] skr_xd:
if HD2 plays this video, I don't think it means it can play 720p videos.

my HD can play the above YouTube video in HQ mode.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
Just looked at that video for the first time - it's definitely not 720p! Looks like about 854x480.

Even if it were 720p, the onboard YouTube client might be hardware-accelerated, while Coreplayer definitely isn't.
[HD2 General] DaveLeh:
Are you guys sure you can't press two buttons at the same time on the HD2? For example pressing a virtual pad's direction key and jump key at the same time on any emulator software (for example morphgear).

Hi all,

First post here so hope I haven't put it in the wrong place... I'm bored of the standard software on the HTC TOUCH HD after having it for a month so im looking for something a bit jazzy and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of the best option for myself! It must meet the following criteria...

1) not drain the battery

2) not lag / be nice and fast

3) be able to run other apps nicely. in particular the tomtom navigator software that I've got.

4) not just be straight wm6.5 !

any suggestions? thanks in advance

I've tested a fairly large amount of roms, including Miri's (6.1 and 6.5), Dutty's (6.1 and 6.5), Laurentius, Xanytech's, etc... But I always find myself going back to a Topix rom.

In my opinion, Topix roms are unmatched in terms of simplicity, stability and speed.

I haven't tried the latest 6.5.1 roms though, they seem to be promising.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] the-equinoxe:
Closed this "which ROM is best thread".

Every user has his own perception of what makes a ROM good.

Every user has specific usage for his/her device, what one person would value an other would hate.

Even "best working" is kinda subjective, someone who eg. doesn't use MMS, doesn't value a perfect functioning MMS, another user could value a perfect working bleutooth stock, while an other never uses bleutooth, etc etc..

Lots of people, lots of tastes.

Best way to find the best working ROM for your purposes is in flashing and testing.

There is no way around that.

I have an Alpine which I want to use only as a book reader. Is there a way to underclock it as I just want to make it run for as long as possible?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] wireb98:
Have you already made backlight low as possible?

This option works for me just fine (I use it as bookreader too).

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] stuntdouble:
Also make sure there aren't any other programs working in memory, as they drain battery power too.

Other than running it on mains power I don't think you can do anything else that hasn't been mentioned already.

[General Questions and Answers] lohtse:
Hi to All..

Hope everyone is well.

If this question has been answer else where then my apologies to all.

I have an XDA Orbit that came with WM6(prob 6.1) and am wishing to upgrade the rom to 6.5..... I regularly backup the internal memory to MicroSD using Sprite Backup.... I backup ALL internal content so apps, registry and settings etc are backed up. Now my question is this... If I do a rom upgrade can I simply restore the backup file thus returning the Orbit to original state before the upgrade with the change being of cause a 6.5 rom and not a 6.1 rom.. I just don't want to have to reinstall over 250 apps if I can help it....

regards

Lohtse
[General Questions and Answers] orb3000:
Hi,

Yes you can restore your apps from sd card after flashing (of course taking out your SD before flashing!)

Just remember that some apps may not be compatible with 6.5, also 6.5 takes a lot of more RAM so be sure you have enough to run all you need.

Hope it helped,
[General Questions and Answers] Farmer Ted:
Doing a full sprite restore is kind of a lousy idea, if you ask me, especially when upgrading from 6.1 to 6.5. How many registry entries from 6.1 will either useless in 6.5 or in conflict? Beats me, but it will affect device performance. What's worse, if you're not happy with the new rom, you won't know if it's the rom's fault for sucking or if it's your fault for importing a lot of bad registry settings. In some cases, I've read that doing a full restore locks up the pda, with a hard reset being the only way to get it going again.

You have 250 apps installed? Holy crap, that's a ton!!! All I can say is this: keep your cabs. If you have them all, you can have them automatically installed with sashimi. (If not, you can use sk tools to re-pack any installed program back into a cab.) I guess it may be worth it to try the sprite backup just because of the enormous amount of crap you've installed (no offense, lol). I would actually recommend that you try out Resco Backup. I haven't used it myself (have the demo, though). It allows you to do more selective restores than Sprite. Also, you can unpack the backup on your pc later if you find that you're missing things. It costs about 20 bucks, but it's really the only backup utility that I've ever been tempted to buy. I already own sk tools, and it does a good job of backing up stuff, but Resco sounds pretty sweet.
[HD2 General] rebecker:
With so many of the feature sets of phones geared to data plans, I'm a little concerned about how the HD2 will deal with features for someone like me who doesn't have a data plan because I'm out of data range 85% of the time. In looking at the manual, these items come to mind:

1. Update Weather Info Using Wi-Fi or ActiveSync Connection?

2. Using Footprints with GPS; No Data Connection?

3. Update Stocks Using Wi-Fi or ActiveSync Connection?

4. Navigation Using GPS Only; No Data Connection? Can Google maps be downloaded and used when no data connection is available?

I currently use a TyTN II that came with TomTom for navigation. Would my current version work on the HD2? If not, is there a software package for navigation that will work with the HD2?

Thanks in advance.

-Bob-
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
I don't get it - I have never encountered a situation where I would have voice service but no data - is it even possible?

Anyway, your #1 and #3 will work fine, don't know about Footprints - never used that, and Google Maps have cache, but you need to download the maps around your location at least once. Then if you want to zoom in/out or move away from the predownloaded area you'll need a data connection.

TomTom should work just fine - why wouldn't it?
[HD2 General] rebecker:
I don't have a data plan because I'm outside the US 85% of the time. Too cheap to pay for a 'plan' when I'm in the US. Use a pay-as-you-go plan. No data available as far as I know. Has that changed??:o

Thanks for your reply.

-Bob-
[HD2 General] rebecker:
Screen resolution, maybe??
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Ah, OK, I thought by "range" you meant "coverage". Haven't been in the US for 5 years, so don't know whether they have data service for prepaid packages. I'm sure somebody offered that when I was there, but I may be mistaken, can't be an expert on this issue for sure!

HD2 has the same resolution as HD, so you will be fine I'm sure.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] idumych:
I have a Kaiser with the ION build from the pre made packages thread on this board. I downloaded the official Google Voice app from the Market, and I've been using it as my default dialer. Everything is working fine except for one feature: Everyone I call is seeing me as a private number. I had my real number set to private on AT&T's side, so I went into the settings in android and tried to change the default to show. This caused massive glitches and I wasn't able to connect to AT&T anymore. I went into WinMo, and changed the setting there, which seems to be something it pushes to the sim and tower. I then deleted the data file on my SD card, and redownloaded and configured the Google Voice app. Same results.

Any ideas folks?

Since this has to do with a Droid build that has a thread please use it.

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] THE-COPS:
I have asked this elsewhere but have yet to determine what this is. It's right underneath the camera lens. It looks like an LED but there is no "Flash" function in camera program. It also looks like a light sensor for the screen backlight. But it seems like an unusual location to place such a sensor. Being on the bottom, or back, it would only receive indirect light and at many times get unintentionally covered up by ones fingers while holding the handset with keyboard extended. I also thought it could have been a sensor for the camera. But it has no effect on cameraboperation (eg.. autofocus, white balance etc). Any ideas? Thanks
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mikelittle24:
It's the mute button when the phone is placed face down.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] stevecn70:
You must have lost the button or something, since there is a pic of a mic on it, but if the button is gone, I could see how you would think it was a sensor of some sort.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jezi:
That's just a piece of translucent plastic that goes over the real mute

lighted-switch w/c is in the phone body:). The screen backlight sensor and proximity sensors are up front by the earpiece.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] THE-COPS:
Thank you! I would never have figured.. or even guessed that. Once you said ''button'' , I went to push it ....sure enough lol. There is an image on it, but its too small to make out. Bummer, I was hoping for an LED :p thanks again.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] EvilDeadFan:
I can make out the picture quite easily. You may want to consider glasses. :) I'm not poking fun really, I can see a traditional broadcast mic with a slash through it, suggesting it's mute capabilities.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] mikelittle24:
I think he's looking at it with the cover off, in which case it does kinda look like a sensor of some kind.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Rosco911:
As ROMs keep changing and being fixed, what would be the best ROM for a 32A Magic.

Im debating between The official HoFo ROM and MyHero 2.0.4.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ronni.rasmussen:
Why don't you just try them and decide for yourself ? Find one there cover your needs instead of making yet another "best rom thread"!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] apacheo:
Hear, hear.

It depends entirely what you want out of your rom.

Broadly, there are a few types of rom:

AOSP - Good example is CyanogenMod. Very stable, very fast. Based off AOSP 1.6 (Donut)

Hero-based - until recently, if you wanted a Sense UI (aka Rosie) on your android, you'd use a hero based rom.

Sense-based - Hofo Community rom is an example of this. Runs Cupcake (1.5) rather than Donut (1.6) though.

Ion-based - nk02 / Amon RA have done roms based off the Ion releases - damn fast, none of the bloat of hero/sense, and pretty good, although not updated very often (because they don't need to be).

If you're after a good, fast, general rom, then its hard to beat CM.

Hofo is probably my next choice, if you like sense.

If you want a no-nonsense, bare bones, screaming fast son-of-a-***** ROM, go an Ion based one.

Otherwise, try the roms yourself and get an idea of what you like.

Hi, there was a program that I used quite frequently on my Touch Pro, it's called Bluetooth Audio, version 1.0 Basically it allowed you to play music, or anything really, on your mono bluetooth headset.

It doesn't seem to work on the TP2. Does anyone have a suggestion for a different program that does the same thing that might work on the TP2? Thanks.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] wizholt7:
Anyone? Still haven't found a resolution elsewhere...
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] kd8fre:
You do not need a program for this on the TP2.

Just scroll over to the settings tab, tap menu, and then Bluetooth Devices.

There will be three tabs at the top of the window that comes up, tap the first tab, which looks like 3 gears, and then scroll down to "advanced" and tap it. Then tap "Audio" and check the box that says "Play System sounds on remote hands-free device."

Tap Done, then exit, and you should be up and working!

Quick Bluetooth Audio Switching

My TP2 came configured like this and couldn't figure out why I couldn't hear my alarms until I happened to leave my headset by my bed one night and heard the alarm coming from there! I switched this option after so research and it works great.

Here's my suggestions to the great minds here:

Is there any way to make a button, somewhere, that would allow me to switch this function on or off without having to drill down into the bluetooth menus?

Reason:

I am using Voicemail Fusion + and it used the media player built in. If I want to listen to my VMs while this switch is turned off, it doesn't play through the regular speaker on the phone, but rather the speaker phone. This isn't very practical, of course! I even emailed them and they said they don't support it. But sure enough, If I switch it in the BT menu, it works through the BT headset!

Also, I have two cars, one with AUX in to the stereo and another without. I'd like to listen to my audio books through my BT in the one car and the stereo in the other without futzing through a bunch of menus.

Can anyone else? Maybe something on the HTC sound menu? Anything. Thanks in advanced!
