[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arashed31:
I bought the Moment November 1st and was amazed at how fast it was. The screens were fluid and it NEVER lagged except in my long contacts list and some web sites.

Battery life, microphone, gps, and signal problems made me return it for a replacement. They didn't have the Moment in stock so I decided to get a Hero temporarily.

As soon as I turned it on I noticed how laggy and slow the phone was. Camera quality is great, I love the Sense UI improvements, and it feels very polished but I just can't stand the sluggishness of EVERYTHING on the phone. Especially they keyboard. I text a lot and I can't stand pressing the OSK buttons 45 letters ahead of what shows up.

As soon as I get the time, I'll go back and get myself a Moment. It's too bad I might not get the 2.0 update, but what isn't in official updates will eventually come out from someone here hopefully.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmartburrito:
Well, for one thing, the phone is laggy at startup because Sense UI has TONS of apps that are starting up. The longer you leave it be, the smoother it becomes. If you're patient, you'll be surprised at how lag-free it really is.

Also, HTC doesn't recommend that you use any type of task killer that automatically kills processes. What will happen is an endless loop of apps restarting, and it will feel like a laggy phone.

Android has good memory management, and apps will auto-close after inactivity or if memory requests it. Just want to make sure you're not seeing the phone as "laggy" because apps are starting up. Just sayin.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kylez64:
I for one am very excited about this phone

2.0 soon, updated sense (hopefully:confused:) and the source code just released

I cant wait to see this thing after a few modifications like Apps2sd and linux-swap
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arashed31:
wasupwithuman brings up an interesting question. Will the Samsung Moment have a seperate forum? And if not, does anybody know of a good forum like xda-developers for all Android phones?

[Hero CDMA General] riotkid976:
I've had my Hero since 10-9 and up until yesterday I had never seen the home screen rotate. The phone was in the process of opening Peep, and for a breif second the phone lagged, flashed to the home screen (which was in landscape) and then to Peep.

I've done tons of google'ing trying to figure out if home screen rotation is a feature that actually exists or not; and all i'm finding are conflicting reports. Some people say that the feature doesn't exist until you root the phone. Others say it will work if you have widgets that will fit in landscape mode (i've tried that, doesn't seem to help).

does anyone have a clear cut answer for this?
[Hero CDMA General] v3lly2:
i'm going to say no it is not an available feature.
[Hero CDMA General] bklynfire:
sure does exist, I have a Hero with Sprint, and it has it, but sometime it laggs when it has to rotate back
[Hero CDMA General] Breakthecycle2:
I'll be honest, the home screen should not rotate (atleast My European HTC Hero does not). The reason being the widgets are too big to fit in landscape.
[Hero CDMA General] johnsongrantr:
htc senceUI home (default GUI) does not rotate the home screen

htc senceUI widgets (default widgets) on default home screen do not rotate

android home (not enabed by default on hero) does not rotate the home screen

openhome (3rd party app) does rotate the home screen (off by default)

htc senceUI apps; peep, mail, messenger, browser etc, does rotate in app if enabled in settings>sound & display>Orientation (checked by default)

pretty clear answer for those who want clear cut answers
[Hero CDMA General] riotkid976:
what is your widget set up on your home screen(s)? I would really like to make mine do it without installing anything else...

Are there any Windows Mobile or Android phones that have a dual-touch sensor like the iPhone/iPod touch? What I mean is, a phone that can recognize when you touch 2 spots on the screen at once?
[General Topics] jerzoslaw:
The G1 or Htc dream has multi touch ( that's the correct name for that function) but you need to flash a custom rom for that. I'm no sure but i think that htc saphire and hero have multi touch as well
[General Topics] bmo.alt:
multi touch

htc hd2 but i have read this is only in some applications (Opera Mobile e.t.c)
[General Topics] dashauns:
HTC hero (android, sprint) has mulitouch enabled out of the box and so will the touch hd2 (windows mobile). Multitouch depends on the hardware so through software it can be enabled and older phones with the hardware like the G1
[General Topics] kaptix:
It depends on weather the screen is capacitive or resistive, im pretty sure resistive touch screens cant do multitouch but the benefit is that resistive are much more accurate
[General Topics] HTC Touch Freak:
That couldn't be more true. Resistive is more accurate.

You wanna know why other phones are gonna be better than the iPhone. They will support MULTI touch. Not just 2 finger touch. Look at the Zune HD. That can support up to 4 finger touches. Mebe 5. (I gotta go check)
[General Topics] kaptix:
im really hoping they come out with a Zune HD type phone.. that would be amazing
[General Topics] thesecondsfade:
+1 to that.

Am I the only person that wants an MP3 player and Cell phone all in one? It's really hard to find a phone with a 3.5mm headphone jack. I hate needing an adapter.
[General Topics] JRK-Scope:
The iPhone surely supports more than two fingers as my brother's ipod touch has an app that has a 3 finger gesture/press.
[General Topics] HTC Touch Freak:
That's rather intresting cause I could never get my ipod touch to do more than 2. Might be app dependent. But I can use any amount anywhere no the zune.
[General Topics] scrufy:
That would be awesome! I could get blue screen crashes everytime I call work.. Now I have an excuse for not calling in... My phone says "unknown error" lolz microsoft... If they make a zune phone, I will run as far as I can from the store that sells it. good advice to keep close...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fil:
Now im sure i had this working, but not 100%, now it dont work, ive searched, but there only seems to be mention of in the media players, ie tcpmp, core, nitrogen etc, the option to turn the screen off.

Theres other threads on here about getting the screen off, but not locking the keys, i allways seem to dial someone when doing it this way!

Now ive just dug out my TyTn 2 and tested

run tcpmp, played an mp3, gone back to my main screen, locked the keys and hit the standby button, = phone screen off, phone lock, but still getting mp3 playback.

Why cant i get my touch pro 2 to do this????
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] agentdr8:
I use Nitrogen with S2U2 and it works just fine. No amount of button presses turn the device on, except for the power button.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fil:
Tried that, but you still cant lock the phone 1st then turn the screen off, unless im missing something?

Has this S2U2 got anything to do with what i want?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] drpal181:
I think it has to do something with the headphones being used. I can lock my device with s2p running being pluged in to a 3.5 cable while i drive.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fil:
no one share this issue then? still bugs me i can do it on older devices and not my TP2?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] agentdr8:
I'm guessing you're trying to use the standard windows lock screen and then power button? I don't use the built-in screen lock, and just use S2U2, which I've set to only come on when the power button is pressed. So I can start nitrogen, play music, hit the "screen off" button on the default skin, which blanks the screen, and when I hit the power button, S2U2 comes up first.

The other thing to look at is possibly the Keylock under start, settings, system. Not sure which ROM you're running, so it may or may not be there. I have mine set to disable all buttons except the power button when screen is off.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] grant9908:
I'm having the same problem, when I play my music on my TP2 on speakerphone and press the power button to turn the screen off (to save power) it shuts the music off. I would like this to stop.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] agentdr8:
Try looking at

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\BattPowerOff

I think on some ROMs it's set to 180. Try changing it to 0 and soft-reset & test.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] grant9908:
not to be thick in the head...but could you spell it out for me what this would do before I do it :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] grant9908:
ok, so I regedit it and the value was 0 already so now what do I do? I tried changing it to 2 but I don;t know what I'm doing
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] grant9908:
since no one seems to care about this lol, I found a solution. I just downloaded "turn off the light" app and that works great. it cuts off the screen to conserve power but doesn't kill the music

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cameld00d:
I realize I am a bit late to the discussion, but mortsaver is an older but functional utility for this. There are probably more elegant ones nowadays, but on my apache I use mortsaver with wm6.5 when I am listening to music or even with google maps when it used to freeze if the phone was put on standby.

Hope this is helpful. It's attached. Thanks to everyone on these forums!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fil:
Just had a look and get asfar as the power part then theres no Battpoweroff

Can allready do that with the nitrogen player

Installed but still cant get it to what i want?

Going back to my 1st post, all i want it to do as my previous WM did

run tcpmp ( or any other media player )

play an mp3

go back to my main screen

lock the keys

hit the standby button

= phone screen off, phone locked, but still getting mp3 playback.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] agentdr8:
I just tested this and you're right, it won't work this way. By pressing the standby button, it suspends the audio. I'm sure it does that by design, and most likely to save battery. So there's possibly a regkey to address that. But in the meantime, why not do it this way:

setup s2u2 to lock on power button press

run nitrogen

play an mp3

hit nitrogen's screen off button on the default skin

profit

That's how I do it, and the music keeps on playing indefinitely. All the keys are locked, and the only one you can hit is the standby/power button, at which time s2u2 comes up and prompts for either a password (if enabled) or a slide to unlock, all the while music is still playing.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fil:
Cheers agentdr8 that does the job, but after using s2u2 for a day, i dont like it! The touching the slide to unlock tab on the screen just aint big or as usable as i like.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] NorskeDivision:
Pocket Player by default has "do not suspend power while playing," it keeps the music playing when your phone turns off. :)

Unfortunately, pocket player costs $25 or something like that.

Jabra BT620s may be a good choice, but now Amazon.com doesn't have a good price, a good price for this set should be around $70. Try other electronic discount retailers.

Personal idea: This set, or any kind of Bluetooth set, is not recommended for serious Classical music fans. But I dare say no one are that kind serious on for a cell phone's media player.

they seem to be alot better than the jb200 in the reviews i have been reading.

There is a pretty good video reviw on youtube comparing the S9HD, JB200 and the altec lansing.

seems the altec get great reviews everywhere and a bit cheaper than the competition too. Alot of reviews do rate the sound of the S9 as being better but alot of people do not get on with its semi-rigid design not to mention the absolutly $*1^ reliability.

Thanks for the recommendation, i have ordered a pair of altecs :D

£48 including delivery which is nearly half of what i paid for the S9HD a year ago
[General Accessories] rumpleforeskin:
thanks for the recommendation jonrobertd, i ahve had the lansings for a few days now and really enjoying them.

They are more comfortable than my S9's and a damn sight cheaper too :D

The S9 do sound better (fuller sound and more bass) but i think the lansing may last longer at the gym :)

Hi everyone,

I am currently using a Ciphone C5, loaded with Windows Mobile 6.1. I like it, but it's not 3G-capable and I have to use a headphone adapter in order to listen to music on it, which is pretty annoying. I would like to get a phone that is 3G-capable and has a standard 3.5mm headphone jack.

I'd like some suggestions on what kind of phone to buy. I'm open to Windows Mobile, Android, or even an iPhone. Can some of you share your likes and dislikes about the phones you are using? I like the idea of being able to customize my phone, which is why I like the WM operating system, so most of the Samsung phones are not on my list. Any suggestions?

I had this issue with the first 2 X1's I purchased. If you cannot get a replacement just simply try squeezing together at the two clip points so that they grip the phone tighter when applied.

i just slightly bent the metal side flaps inwards lightly to make the little flat bits press into thier sockets better. the gold things are contacts. i'm guessing to detect if the cover is removed or to make the backplate act as a grounded shield. but non the less they don't do anything for holding the backplate in place it's all down to those 2 little flat bits that grab spots on the side plastics

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
It doesn't really matter if the ROM has one already, because you can push one in yourself.

Find a theme you like (should be for cupcake) and pull the launcher.apk. You need to push it to /system/app. You can do this using the terminal on your phone. put it on the root of your sdcard and type:

cp /sdcard/Launcher.apk /system/app

Then you should be able to choose the non-touch flo option when you press home. If not go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > TouchFlo > Clear Defaults.
