If you're using the latest Energyrom with 6.5 23081 then the problem is a bug with this build from microsoft.

It is a known issue in the WM 6.5 thread that the latest WM6.5 23081, 23085, 23502, 23504 has a bug where the phone does not turn back on from suspend. i.e. when the screen is blank and you press the power button to turn it on, it does not turn on and you have to reset the device. That's why I have not upgraded yet.
[Touch HD General] danjohnson19855:
i started using that rom then changed but i still get the same problem is there a way of fixing it?
[Touch HD General] wingtytn:
if ur havning problems with a rom u downloaded please go back to the post of that rom and ask ur question there,
[Touch HD General] Marne Jr:
Not rom problem ...

AFTER 4 months of use my tohc hd start this behavior of not turning back from suspend mode and what I learned is that is some kind of hardware problem not rom related ... some believe it starts after some drop to the floor... but no one is sure the real cause .... I will by another ... maybe touh hd 2 ....
[Touch GSM General] rex4u:
Hi,:)

Here are a few things I am puzzled with. Kindly help with them :

How can I send multiple SMS to a single recipient (which app). e.g. I want to send all the SMS of my device to another device of mine w/o ActiveSync (just for example).

Best PIM Backup/Restore utility ?

Some important freeware/s to have on my device (I am trying to upgrade to 6.5 so plz advise accordingly)

Any way to check status of a contact without him knowing this (whether phone is off or busy, etc.)

Safest way to upgrade ROM.

Thanks everybody..........;)
[Touch GSM General] dre@ms:
1. No clue

2. PIM backup app is the best.

3. It depends for what purpose you require

4. Not thr

5. Search or goto Onyx thread in Elf upgrading section.
[Touch GSM General] rex4u:
Thanks dreams !!!

1st and 4th are important to me. While doing research I came across something like HushSMS (or something like that). Any idea/experience of it.

Also is there a way to restore SMS from an HTML backup from some other type of OS like Symbian or Java.

I am reading Onyx now.

Thanks once again dreams.....:)
[Touch GSM General] dre@ms:
html needs to be changed in to csv and then can be imported by PIM.

HushSMS, never heard of it. We cant expect all the features available in normal mobile phones in a windows mobile. Limitations are certain.

I apparently screwed some things up in my attempt to upgrade to Cyanogenmod 4.1.99 so I can move to 4.2.3. . . anyway, I now have the HTC bootloader up with fastboot, the standard Android recovery, and HTC ADP 1.6 DRC83 firmware installed, and its up and running. I don't have root, and I am completely lost as to how to get root back, get cm-recovery 1.4 back, and from there, I should be ok...

I do have DREAMING.nbh on my sd, and when i go into fastboot(pwr+camera) It gives me a list:

Parsing. . .[DREAMING.nbh]

[1] BOOTLOADER

[2] RECOVERY

[3] BOOT

[4] SPLASH1

[5] SYSTEM

[6] USERDATA

[7] RADIO_V2

Do you want to start update?

<ACTION> Yes

<Power> No

This is where I don't know if I should do anything without advice, as I don't want to brick my G1 any further

Anyone care to help out?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phamous:
if you messed up like i did a few months back , and lost root because you flashed the htc recovery image and didn't flash cyan's rom on top of it then...i can help. i'm assuming you lost root on your rom because of that, and when you rebooted it took out cyan's recovery image as well, so you can no longer flash anything else into your phone. Alright! first thing's first, is we need to have a look at what spl you're using, take out that dreaming.nbh file from your sd, you won't need it, instead, put on a recovery image like cyanogen's 1.4 or amon ra's 1.2.3 (i suggest the latter)

anyways , you're gonna have to have the hard spl/ engineering spl/ or the haykuro "death/danger" spl installed on your phone. I'm going to assume you have at least one of these, because if you don't and you have the stock spl that's a different story. If you have the stock spl for some reason, you are gonna have to downgrade your phone like you did when you first got root. Research the forums , there are loads of guides on how to downgrade your phone, go to the section that specifically talks about using the bootloader to restore the dreaming.nbh file.

if you do have either the hardspl, death, or engineering's spl,

you need to search the forums on how to use fastboot and adb

you're gonna need to push the recovery image file (cyan's or amon_ra's)

into your phone and wahpow!

you're in the green, once you have the recovery image back in the phone, you can boot into it and flash w.e the hell you want
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gh0sTly:
You hit the nail on the head!

I know that I had HardSPL on at one time, would everything that has happened somehow remove it, and how can I check if its still there?

I will likely use Cyanogen's recovery. If possible, link me to a good "howto" on loading Cyanogen from Fastboot.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phamous:
alright, to check what spl you have, turn off your phone and hold camera and the power on button,

you'll go into your bootloader, and it will display what spl you're running

it's been a while since i remember what numbers belong to what spl, but as long as you don't see the multicolored spl, and you see like three little android bugs on the bottom, you're good to go

uhm i kinda saved random links to things that i used, you're gonna have to read all these documents and learn all about adb, it's worth it in the long run, and there's no better time to learn it now since it's your only hope of getting root back.

Thats all it gives me, but there are 3 Androids on skateboards at the bottom, and its a all white screen.

I cant seem to get the SDK to work, let alone install on my PC here(Damnit Vista, I can't wait for my copy of Win7 Pro to get here!!!!) so I might just let it charge up overnight, check here in the morning and give it a whirl on my laptop with XP. Hopefully, I can get this all taken care of. You have been a world of help so far. Just keep an eye out for some updates here tomorrow.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phamous:
SAME HERE wow, couldn't get the damn sdk to work on vista either

GO XP

that's what i did, worked instantly, find someone with xp and ask them to let you borrow it for about an hour

you have an appropriate spl btw, it'll be able to fastboot correctly

in the meantime, i'd read up on those links i sent you, especially the last one,

and you'll be good!

goodluck!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gh0sTly:
ok, looks like I got the SDK to work on here, and I have it updating right now. Its first update was the USB driver. If anyone has some time, and wants to send me a IM over AIM to help me out with this, please IM me.

I am going to let this update, and then hope that I can get it to flash cm-recovery back onto the phone.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gh0sTly:
cm-recovery 1.4 is BACK! OK! AWESOME

god this had me abit scared.

Ok, back to the prior task at hand. at this point, can I update to CyanogenMod 4.1.99 then update to 4.2.3, or can I update this directly to 4.2.3?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gh0sTly:
ok, you cant update directly to 4.2.3 XD
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gh0sTly:
Ok, awesome, ive got cm-recovery 1.4, and Cyanogenmod 4.2.3.1 up and running. Time to give Cyanogen some credit. this firmware is FAST!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
Every time I try to flash a Hero ROM, I get an error of sorts during the copy file portion saying that a "xbin" file of sorts is missing. I had JACxROM on the phone, and tried to go from that to a Hero ROM, with no avail. I just flashed to the newest CyanogenMOD no problem(I did flash the HTC ADP 1.6 recovery img first)

I have the newest radio, deathSPL, as well I have the RA1.2.3 recovery image. Is there something I am missing here?

Do I need to downgrade to 1.5, since as it stands I am running 1.6 ROMs?

Or is it likely something else was a "bad flash" and I should just go back to R29, and work my way forward from there?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phamous:
are you sure you have the "death/danger" spl installed on your phone? make sure, but even if you don't, why not just install it again, it repartitions the phone memory, and makes it clean when you flash things on top of it.

that's the most common problem for xbin errors when flashing a hero rom , it's too big to fit in the stock system memory alone. Try re-doing everything. Make sure your ext partition is clean (format that) , do a wipe to clear cache/data, repair ext partition,

and if all else fails, maybe you might just wanna repartition your sd card, might have broken/corrupted partitions.

maybe you might even have a broken sd card. and you might have to get a new one

lotta maybe's , but try trouble shooting random things.

hope you can find your answer, noone can exactly help you with this one with any sorta direct guide or how two since they're not there to deal with your phone on site

goodluck flashing!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjcforpres:
Thank you! I figured it could be one of many things... I am starting fresh, doing RC29 forward.

I am certain I had death, et al, I have been a bit of a lurker for a while on the Android end, and finally got a G1 about a week ago, so I don't have a lot of experience with it, but I have over a year with a Kaiser, and for several months I ran Android on it.

I tried a couple differnt SD cards, and unless both are dead, I think it is just a bad flash somewhere along the way that didn't show up until that broken file system got tested with a Hero flash.

Anyways, I am confident I will get it sorted out eventually. I am smart enough to not brick the damn thing...fingers crossed... not really, I should be all good.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] rickytenzer:
To be honest, I put it in there, it most likely doesn't get answered because it's quickly overwritten by bigger problems that require more attention. That's the downside of having these MASSIVE threads per ROM.

A few things that may help here; tell us what phone you're using, which ROM you're running on it, and ask these questions in the thread relating to your phone... You'd have a much better chance of finding a decent answer that way.

[HD2 General] SnooPPP:
A key feature that I'm hoping the HD2 does well is emulation. Running morphgear on my Touch HD worked alright. You couldn't really get audio to sync or work right and framerate wasn't that great either. Now with the HD2 you got multitouch support and better hardware, so it should be an awesome experience. Has anybody tried running any emulation apps on the HD2 yet?

Also the TG01 plays PSX games flawlessly check out these links:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Q9qAB7ADB4

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YR2e1Mep2b0

Anybody test this out on the HD2?

I dream of being able to play PSP games on the HD2
[HD2 General] snowblindd:
FpSECE should run like a charm on this monster (also without any bluetooth gamepad due the enourmous screen size). I think there are going to be alot of capacitive-scree-like-games for windows mobile now also. Pfff can.t wait to get my hands on this baby :))
[HD2 General] kersh:
If you think that most of developers are going to make capacitive-like-games for windows mobile when only one device support it instead of putting their efforts on games for the iphone and android, you are going crazy.
[HD2 General] Tanmay®:
^^ Second that! Don't keep your hopes up for any Multitouch based games for atleast another year.

Windows Mobile 7 might change that. But till then, its no use dreaming :(
[HD2 General] twisted-pixel:
I remember when xtract (or whatever it was called was released), this was such a fantastic game and showed what could be possible on the WM platform.

sadly, the popularity of the iphone means that most developers are working on apps for that phone instead. The main reason behind this is that every developer knows almost exactly what he will have to work with on an iphone. With WM there are too many variations of screen resolution to consider, memory restrictions etc

in addition, the relatively high cost of apps on WM (compared to the thousands of 0.59p for iphone)means that they don't sell quite so many and the demand isn't there.

it's sad, but this is perhaps the reason that WM is dying as a platform.

I saw an article the other day that said that itunes had hit the 100,000 mark for apps. I think that's an increase of about 25,000 apps in a single year. WM cannot even get close to that figure..
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Well, out of those 100,000 apps 99,900 are useless fart apps and such, not the kind of games we are talking about here. App Store allows you to sell whatever you want and since there's no return policy you can have people paying for your app, no matter if it is good or not.

This is not to say there are no great games for the iPhone of course! Yet the mere number of apps there isn't really an indicator of quality.
[HD2 General] twisted-pixel:
you're right ( I question your accuracy though ;) )

but the point is, that people are spending time creating 'useless' apps for the iphone....very few people are creating anything for WM
[HD2 General] Benjiro:
I think we do need to make some difference between a big number, and quality programs... How many programs are not just total useless "fart" and other idiotic crap programs.

Its easy to claim that they have 100.000 programs, when most are close to useless.

SnooPPP:

You forgot to post a more recent one. This one showes the touchscreen in action on the TG01, with the overlay:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MHCQiT6e54

Its actually kinda playable just using a Single Touch Resistive screen.

A quick look at the forum of the FpseCE emulator shows that people are interested in the HD2.

People here question if its useful for developers to create games for a single platform. But, the specs for WM7 are know. They know that every device in the future will have at minimum, the same specs as the HTC HD2, to be compatible with the WM7 OS. So, for many developers the HTC HD2 will probable be a nice development / testing platform for the future.

Also, when looking at the PSX emulator, that now on a Snapdragon can play about every PSX game... This is a game library of? How many hundred games? Including hits like FF7, etc ...

What about the N64 emulator that they are porting for the openPandora project, on a TI OMAP 3430? When the source is released and recompiled for WM, you can expect to also that game library...
[HD2 General] loomx:
This is what im really excited about, FpSECE on the HD2 will be amazing, it just needs either multitouch support or we need a controller we can use with the HD2.
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Well, why wouldn't they spend time? If you put a fart app in App Store, chances are, somebody will pay for it by mistake, and won't be able to claim money back.
[HD2 General] Toss3:
In fpsece 0.1 there are overlays so no need for a controller(and it supports multitouch if I recall correctly).
[HD2 General] KrewCial:
Meh, regarding an entertainment perspective, I never really understood why games should be on phones. Sure the usual, patience or bubble breaker is nice, but if you really want to play games, I suggest getting an xbox360 or ps3, it's what I use mine for anyway. :P
[HD2 General] Toss3:
You don't travel much, do you?
[HD2 General] KrewCial:
PSP then? :P
[HD2 General] Toss3:
Carrying around two devices is just too inconvenient. :)
[HD2 General] Spartoi:
Could the HD2 even handle PSP Game's graphics??
[HD2 General] KrewCial:
Meh, when I travel, I don't mind carrying another device with me. Playing games on your phone only drains the battery even more, leaving less juice to make business calls. :)
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
That's a bit like arguing that there's no point in putting a camera into a phone because, when you travel, you don't mind taking a camera with you. That may be true as far as it goes; but having a camera in your phone becomes useful in situations where you didn't know in advance that you were going to need a camera and then suddenly realise that you do - conveniently, you just happen to have one with you because it's built into a device that you automatically carry with you at all times. The same applies to gaming on a phone: it's useful in situations where you didn't know in advance that you were going to want a gaming device.

You also have to ask: even if you are willing to pack a separate portable console, are you willing to pack a portable games console, a phone, an MP3 player, a mobile web browsing device, a mobile email terminal, a dedicated satnav device, and a portable video player? That's quite a lot to fit in your trouser pockets. There's a lot to be said for combining multiple devices into the same box. :)
[HD2 General] Archer:
You forgot to mention all the chargers too ;)
[HD2 General] KrewCial:
It's not like chargers take that much space... it's just one small bag. Besides, nowadays there are these universal extensions and what not if I'm correct if you really mind taking multiple chargers with you. Furthermore, if you have one device which you use for everything, you're gonna need to charge it more often, while this is not the case when using multiple devices, just to make clear that having an all-in-one device is not as heavenly as it might seem (or you're gonna have to take ALL those multiple batteries with you :P ).

Also, comparing taking a picture and gaming with and on a phone is not entirely just, because when one wants to game, he/she has to sit down and put time into gaming, while taking a snapshot is almost instant. What I'm trying to say is that when someone is playing a full blown 3D game (which is what is actually discussed here instead of patience, minesweeper or whatever), that person wants to put in time to focus on the game. In this case it's much better to use a dedicated device and not some emulator on a phone to play ps1 games while draining your battery life. And yes, if someone wants to take beautiful high resolution pictures, that person will take a quality camera with him/her.

Eventually it all comes down to preference I guess... :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Actually, it misses a category of casual gamers. I haven't played any games at all since like 2002, apart from a couple of golf games on Wii at parties when this console appeared. But then I installed NFS on my HD, and found myself playing several times a week. :) Not only it fills the free time I occasionally have perfectly, but also it's much more fun with the accelerometer - I never liked racing games before, but it's easier and more realistic than using the mouse and the keyboard, and I definitely appreciate the fact that it's using hardware acceleration!
[HD2 General] KrewCial:
But thats exactly my point. Casual gamers don't necessarily need to have games on their phone, while they do think it is nice to have, because it's fun from time to time. Other people are turning the world upside down to have amazing, flashy games on their phones and for what? If they want these games so bad, I suggest they get a psp.
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
No, I'm arguing the opposite. :) I enjoy playing Need For Speed, which isn't something like Bubbles or Tetris, it's a 3D-accelerated game, and I'd love a flashier version of it. And no, I don't care for a [portable] console and will never buy one. So console makers and game makers for consoles aren't getting my bucks, while I won't mind paying extra $100 or even $200 for a phone that would do the job more or less decently.
[HD2 General] KrewCial:
Then you're an unusual person, no offense. :) You want everything to be as nice as possible, but do not want to spend money on a gaming device, which brings a much better experience with it. Hence we're back at the argument that you want an all-in-one device etc...

Really, I don't see the point, games on a mobile phone drain the battery like crazy. So even if you manage to put nice looking games on a phone, you won't be able to play long anyway. Besides, why do you buy a phone? For connectivity and

occasionally

entertainment. What good is a phone with a dead battery?

Don't get me wrong, when the time comes that the overall experience of a dedicated gaming device and gaming on a mobile phone are equal and mobile phones become a gaming platform on its own, I'll be all over it. But I really doubt that time will come soon.
[HD2 General] KowboyBebop:
really guys, no point in arguing in this thread. I have PSP and I am so looking forward to seeing FpsCE on HD2. Its for when i dont have my PSP, or to let my mates get some entertainment in a boring class. And ofc, mainly for accelerometer, cuz lots of game can be more fun like this =)
