yes, try Jetware and specify in its options to sync only CAR category (create this category easily in OUTLOOK including the numbers you use mostly when driving)

this makes it easier to scroll through your contacts when you are driving since you do not have that many contacts in the CAR category
[HD2 General] Looking Glass:
Thanks for the suggestion.

IMHO we are making a real burden of something that should work out-of-the-box in today's PDAs. Sure, car makers are to blame also in this issue, but it's hard to understand that "recent" devices fail where older ones performed flawlessly.

Anyone with "real world comments" on Jetware and how it would solve the problems stated in this thread? How is that "car list" handled? How do I know when my car BT contact list limit is reached? And what exactly means Jetware claim about ""The software incorporates "effective technological measures" to enforce the evaluation period and activation requirement"", it's scaring..... ;-)

[HD2 General] a_petrov303:
with all due respect, I disagree...how could have the engineers in munchen known that in 2010 I will need to pair a TG01? the car was on the road since 2005...now people at toshiba or microsoft new what is on the market today, they should add support for car kits

normally I would go out and buy a new X6M but with this crisis I have to sit on the fora and try to make what I have work :D
[HD2 General] Looking Glass:
I partly agree.... but manufacturers are well ahead of consumers as far as standards and those things.... both car (let's say BT in-car systems) and PDA (phone) makers work in tight contact each other (remember even MS uses BT expert's third party SW, Widdcom) so they SHOULD (and) know in advance..... they simply save a few pennies in the process.... believe me, i've close friends in car manufacturing business.... they DO know what we are talking... just blame each other, as usual.

Problem finally fixed???

All,

Until today I have been using Miri's 6.5.x ROMS and I have always had to make the registry changes on my earlier post to get bluetooth handsfree working.

I just updated to the 2.08 HSPL and did a quick test in the office car park (!) and it seems to work first tme with NO registry changes AND the address book has transferred.

This was only a quick test so I will report back in 24 hours with an update.

Please note that if anyone else tries the update you need to know:

- You must be on a 2.1 based ROM (e.g. MIRI 6.5.x)

- You need to install the correct 2.08 HSPL2 (see the HSPL2 post here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=611433)

- You can update the HSPL without doing a hard reset BUT when I did this bluetooth did not connect to my car at all. As soon as I did a hard reset it worked perfectly.

Maybe HTC have finally fixed the problem...let's see in 24 hours...
[HD2 General] a_petrov303:
I envy you! and congrats! :rolleyes:

I am on Toshiba TG01 and there are no ROMs yet for this device
[HD2 General] andy2111:
Bad news, good news

Well, contrary to my thoughts two posts above, it doesn't look like the new 2.1 ROM fixes the problem.

What is *very* strange is that immediately after I installed the new HSPL and did a hard reset, I paired the phone with my car (Range Rover Sport) and *everything* worked perfectly. Then a couple of hours and a soft reset or two later I tried again and I was back to exactly the same problem as originally reported (phone pairs but no sound from the car speakers).

The good news is that I managed to get everything working again with only one registry edit. I thought I'd try just setting the SupportedFeatures key to 1085 and this works perfectly. So maybe all those other registry key changes are not required?

Now I have the phone pairing with the car, the address book transfers and the last number dialled memory works as well.

So if anyone else is having problems try a hard reset to restore the registry back to the factory settings and then try just editing SupportedFeatures and see how you get on..
[HD2 General] a_petrov303:
I think I am onto something here:

if the BT is switched on after I start the car, everything works perfect!

the only inconvinience now is switching BT on/off for each jorney (especially annoying during short trips with short stops - to the local shop, post office etc)

problem after SAP-connetion

I have following problem: I connected my HD2 with my car handsfree set over the SAP-Profile. There is no problem, everything worked well. But if I turned off the handsfree set, I couldn't make calls, but I could receive calls with the HD2. Strange to say that in the taskbar the notice of receipt is nearly full and the T-Mobile logo is also displayed. At the moment only a softreset helps me. But this can't be a solution.

The Support of HTC sayed I should try another SIM-Card. This wasn't successful. I get a new HD2 from T-Mobile. Also without success.

My Samsung I900 and Nokia N95 worked well with my car handsfree set.

Has anyone the same problem and is there a solution?

Thank you for your answers.

VoIP call using car link

Anyone using the native builtin WM VoIP call with car link? My normal gsm call using car link works fine, but VoIP call has the following problems:

- I can dial but cannot hangup from car.

- Some calls work fine but then it gets into a state where out going audio is completely messed up. The other end has a mechanical clicking sound whenever I say something. I can hear the other end without problem. I tried reseting HD2 and disconnect the pairing and pair again. Sometime it fixes it, sometime it does not. Also tried various tweaks in this thread and none worked.

I had the same setup on HTC Fuze and Kaiser without any problem. I can't believe we are having so much trouble in this area with the newer HD2. Does anyone have any suggestion? Thanks.

Save m.google.com/voice to your IE bookmarks, then, if you're using manila add a quick link under the Browser tab.

one tap ('cause we ain't really clicking anything here) will get you directly to your GV inbox via Opera 9.5.

ehm,

could I use this Widget in every ROM like MoDaCo 2.9?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] kendong2:
it is included in mcr2.9 as it is part of htc sense. probably won't work in other roms.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] FormelLMS:
Oh, I thought, that is the Widget of the first HTC ROM with flipping times.

Sorry.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] goku14238:
I still cant figure out how to get it to work on my phone.. I just said forget it
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jmanley69:
It won't work without Rosie installed (and running). It's an HTC widget, not a regular Android widget... it only hooks into SenseUI.

Also, if your question is why doesn't it actually flip, that's a limitation of the US version I know for sure... the animation was taken out by HTC because of the drain on system resources. The animation may or may not be functioning in the widget released in Europe.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] markspark100:
I did pull this from the original rom so it should flip but when i posted it i thought id like to give it a try and i couldnt get it work either so I gues htc must have changed something else in the ROM that it relies on maybe...:confused: Im far from being an expert though so don't know if it should be able to work or not

Sorry
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Shiggity:

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] :
Fancy Widget?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] pulser_g2:
Lacks the animation, but it's the closest you will get. Remember that it's removed due to a C&D, so you can't get it or post it on xda. :rolleyes:
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Hitman37:
I have my own black version of the HTC flipclock that i rebuilt/themed and the animation flips/works perfectly, i've uploaded it for you (install through recovery as update.zip and make sure it does not go on sdcard, has to be on phone storage)!

It would be great if a Dev could make this work with non-sense roms:)

Enjoy.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ikawka:

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] green hoodlum:
so with a non htc sense ROM i can't install the flip clock widget? is there similar alternative? thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] jseb14:
srry rlly hard to do

the thing is the flip clock needs the sense framework.....if you want something similar to it...download applanet and install fancy widgets pro and theme the home widget i paid for the app but if u need it for testing i suggest this. the clock its identical to the sense ui analog flip clock

Hey guys ive just recieved a unlocked and rooted Rogers HTC Magic, i am currently running it on At&t. Ill pulled this info off the phone

Sapphire PVT 32A ENG S-Off H

Hboot- 1.33.2010 (Sapp50000)

CPLD- 12

RADIO- 3.22.20.17

I got this phone and the previous owner had a hero rom running on the phone already. My problem is he loaded about 7 different roms onto the sd card none of which really seem to be the roms everyone reccomends here. My question is, is there a way to find out which rom i am currently running? I'd like to clear out the sd card and start fresh loading roms of my choice, but dont want to delete my current rom or comprise my backup.

I appreciate any help that can be offered
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] smurf:
go to settings -> phone info and scroll down to kernel version. That should give you some information about the rom...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] platinumyahoo:
Why would you care about what Rom you are running? since u have root, just flash the hofo rom for 32A

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=534415

its the best one for 32A and I have tried them all...

Also, just do ndroid backup so you can go back if you change your mind.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pack:
The roms on the sd card should be fine for you to delete without messing up anything running on your phone...

When you flash a rom your installing it on your phones hard drive (its like installing a program on your computer, after you install it you can delete the "installer exe" because all the files are now on your computer).

Also if you dont like the rom you have on it now, you don't need to know what it is to change it.

Just simply flash a new one... download the rom, move it to the sd card as update, boot to recovery,

BACKUP

, wipe, flash

Good luck...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] blackvyper:
My thoughts exactly... wipe and flash a new ROM that YOU decided on. That's what root is for.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] bdkaye12:
Hey thanks guys for the info i wasn't sure that i could just delete all the roms on the sd card. I appreciate the help and planning on checking out the hofo rom.

[HD2 General] bartveld:
1. Looking at buttons in Settings, the list is simply empty, no buttons to assign. Am I doing something wrong?

2. Also, I can't find an option to make the X button actually close an app, instead of minimizing it. Again, am I doing something wrong?

3. I noticed that on first startup Windows doesn't ask you to align the screen. Yet the option is there. But how do you accurately align the screen with fingers? I find the screen very unresponsive in the top left and right corner. Also, while typing I have to aim somewhat above the key I mean to hit. Is this a question of getting used to, or has it to do with bad alignment?

4. Where's the autorotation? Is there a way to tell the device which apps to autorotate and which not? For now, hardly anything rotates of its own accord. And since I can't assign rotation to a button it might as well go without a G-sensor.
[HD2 General] nicelad_uk:
With point 3, you'll get some debate about this with various people. I think there should be an alignment as everyone presses the screen at different angles and its not going to know that unless you align it.

HTC Hero had same problem, screen edges were unresponsive, until you did a calibrate of the keyboard and then it was perfect.

It is an option missing...!
[HD2 General] Vlk_77:
ad 1: if you make shortcut of any program you want to run, rename it to long_send.lnk and copy to C:\windows, then long press left button and this program will be executed. (I downloaded from XDA rotate.exe to rotate screen)

ad 2: install Duttys HTC task manager, restart and X is back (also in settings yo can configure its function)

ad 4: there is a possibility to "unlock" rotation in registry, but as long as you can not see any buttons in buttons setting it's pointless... that's why I used point 1 solution
[HD2 General] htc-hd2:
It's still there (sorry in Dutch)

Start > Instellingen > Menu > Meer > Systeem > Scherm

In English it should be something like

Start > Settings > Menu (at the bottom of the screen) > More > System > Screen
[HD2 General] Jaqb:
Is this some cruel joke ? how did you do that on HD2 ?? Would be awesome if it worked....

EDIT: MY BAD.... Best trick ever !! thx !
[HD2 General] bartveld:
Thanks for the input, everybody.

Still, that gives me just one long press button to assign. There are at least three buttons that could be used for different apps. I just don't understand what HTC were thinking. Why have 5 buttons on a device and disabling the assign option?

I know it's still there, but I wonder how you can properly align a screen with finger presses as opposed to the pinpoint accuracy of a stylus.

Before this I had the Omnia 2 with the same lack of autorotation options (actually, I'd hoped that returning to HTC would have solved that, but no...). Some clever developer had whipped up a very nice program called RotationDetection, with which you could decide which apps should autorotate. Something like that should be made for the HD2!
[HD2 General] robertlewisca:
I tried this, and for some reason I can't get it to work. Here's what I did:

Downloaded rotate.exe to my storage card.

Created a shortcut to rotate.exe, also on the storage card, and renamed it long_send.lnk

Copied this shortcut and pasted it in the Windows directory on the phone.

Now, if I select long_send.lnk in the Windows directory, the screen does indeed rotate. But I can't get the screen to rotate by holding the send key down.

I have already soft-reset, and this does not solve the problem.

Any ideas?
[HD2 General] htc-hd2:
Did you use THIS Rotate Screen with the shortcut link?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=347705

You will need to install Rotate Screen.cab (or Rotate Screen CW.cab) 1st

The Rotate Screen CW.cab is for counterclockwise rotation.

For me it's working great. When I hold the "call" button for some time the screen rotates.
[HD2 General] THE GRIZZ:
did anyone install AEbuttons on the HD2

it works wonderfully on X1, HD1, diamond 2. it can assign 4 programs or functions to each button and that includes the volume buttons
[HD2 General] robertlewisca:
Okay, so I used that rotate screen cab, installed it, found the shortcut it created in windows/start menu/programs and copied it. Then, I pasted a shortcut to it in the windows directory, and renamed that shortcut long_send.lnk. Then restarted.

Still doesn't work. When i run the shortcut directly in the windows directory, the screen rotates. When I run the 'Rotate' shortcut from the Start menu, the screen rotates. When I long press the send button, the screen does not rotate. Am I missing a step?
[HD2 General] htc-hd2:
Not sure what you call the "send" button.

It's the most left button on the bottom that you need to press for about 3 to 4 seconds.
[HD2 General] htc-hd2:
One more thing..

The "long_send.lnk" should be in the Windows directory.
[HD2 General] robertlewisca:
Yes, the button on the bottom left - the one that if you press and release takes you to the phone screen. At any rate, I can't get it to work the way that has been described. Any suggestions?
[HD2 General] RRibeiro:
I just did this and works realy good.

Thanks for the great tip.
[HD2 General] robertlewisca:
Yes, as i mentioned, I put the 'long_send.lnk' shortcut in the Windows directory. Have tried and retried this about a dozen times now. Still no joy.
[HD2 General] leek:
Not sure about rotate.exe, but FWIW, Gyrator 2 works fine and is customizable based on apps.
[HD2 General] robertlewisca:
Okay, I FINALLY figured it out, and I'll post what happened just in case anyone else runs into the same issue.

I followed the instructions as posted and changed the name of the shortcut to Long_Send.lnk and put it in the Windows directory. However, apparently when you use the Rename function, it just allows you to rename the file and not the extension. It doesn't indicate this anywhere, so I thought I was renaming both the file name and the extension. So, when I renamed to Long_Send.lnk, what I must have in reality been doing was renaming it to Long_Send.lnk.lnk - and therefore it didn't work.

Once it dawned on me that this might be the case, I renamed the shortcut again, this time without adding the extension at the end (Long_Send), and voila - it worked.

Never had to rename a file in WinMo before, so I was unaware that the Rename function only renames the file name, and not the file extension.
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
FYI, you can remap most (if not all) hardware buttons with the .lnk hack. Here's more information on how to do it.

Unlike programs like AEButton Plus, it will only allow you to assign short and long keypresses (no double- and triple-presses), but won't consume any system resources, won't be draining your battery, won't conflict with any other software that uses keyboard hooks.

Use it with caution though. :)
[HD2 General] polstein:
I missed it - does aebutton work? How about the utility like this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=256525

I could have sworn I saw one specifically for HTC phones to remap the volume. It was something like vol up = dpad up, hold up for dpad left...etc.

I never use the volume controls on my current phone (Advantage 7501), and I'm expecting to be able to use vol up/down as dpad up/down for scrolling list and most importantly next page in reading a book!

[HD2 General] RRibeiro:
AEButton works realy fine, I managed to assign the rotate and taskmanager to Call e Back buttons long press.
[HD2 General] Wevenhuis:
It works, but is not useful, when I change the orientation of the sense UI with the lower left button (for the HD2 this is the send/call key) the UI does appear partly but does not work. It just freezes up. Is there a solution for this?
[HD2 General] djet:
What of these Long shortcut combos do actually work? Long_Send seems the only working one.
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Long_Send works for me as well. Short_Send, short_home and long_home don't. :( Haven't tried anything with the volume buttons.
[HD2 General] -Vulture-:
Does it work for the other buttons like the windows key too? Is there a lag when you press the button until the action is executed?

Cause on my omnia i have the center button assigned to "OK", double click switches profiles and long press enables the flashlight. But theres a 1 second lag until the "OK" is executed in programs. The other actions work fine.
