New partitionning system works, zen's 1.6 Droid-Ion-Donut is purring. So, a beer to you, Jesse (i think i owe you two now!). And it also got the GPS working!

Ed. : Scratch the PPP issues. My signal sucked.
[Touch CDMA General] vilord:
what are you seeing specifically with the PPP? I'm seeing rock-solid right now, but i don't know what'll happen tomorrow on the subway to work :)

regarding GPS, It might only work the first time, and only if it was turned on in winmo before you rebooted... we're still looking into that one.
[Touch CDMA General] sshark:
This thing works flawlessly, as you suggested, I have fat32, ext2 (sys) and ext2 (data) partitions. No errors in upgrade and this things flies.

thanks.
[Touch CDMA General] silex:
Are three partitions really necessary? Can we not use two like with v2.2? IE, Fat32 and 500mb ext2.
[Touch CDMA General] TheKartus:
I think this thread should focus toward the new installation system. I see it being confusing what it all means for new users without new instructions. Esp. determining size of partitions and what steps to take for installation.

EDIT: Things seem to be going significantly slower with the three partitions and the new installation than it was before with two. Not sure why.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] BigBallin:
does someone know how to connect to a mac computer? i dont have an access to connect to a pan network
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] harry_m:
If you are starting in WiFi-Mode you only have to search for a "Wifi-Access-Point" (yeah ... I know it's ad-hoc not infrastructure) named G1Tether (historical name). Make sure to use version 1.61-pre1 or later!

a "pan network" is used if you have Bluetooth-Mode configured. Bluetooth-Mode is probably non-functional (for hero devices) at the moment ...

I don't have a hero for testing - so any feedback is welcome!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ajones7279:
Just run it and check the airport menu. It'll be under devices.

Edit: Bluetooth doesn't show up at all.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] benisntfunny:
Anyone know where the Device Type is kept for HTC's Exchange stuff?

Currently it sends my device over to the Active Exchange network as "HTCHero" I'd prefer if it did not do this. I'd like it to present itself as a more secure device like... 'iPhone'

Right now I'm using TouchDown Pro and it will do this for me... and for the most part I like touchdown except that it's horribly ugly. I'd like the ability to use the phone's exchange integration again if I felt like going back.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mlevin:
Not sure if your Hero is rooted yet, but if it is, someone could probably baksmali/smali the .apk and change the activesync device string it returns.

[HD2 General] cheahcl:
Hey guys I'm new here. Joined because I am getting a Leo - except I don't know when. Do you think the price will drop in the next 2-3mths? The cheapest now is $799 and I'm pretty sure Canadians won't be getting this from the cell providers anytime soon.

How does HTC's pricing behave after the launch? Thanks :o
[HD2 General] rich_13:
It's all about supply and demand... a few shops have put the price up do to demand!

It might be a while before the price goes down.
[HD2 General] chalid:
Of course they will drop ... the question is: when? :p

But I don't think we will see huge price drops like with older/other HTC phones, since the touch HD was quite stable for a long time, and the hd2 is even more hyped than the touch HD was.

Maybe 500-550€ in Q1/2010, don't think much less than that.
[HD2 General] br3nt:
yea, but in 2-3 months its almost q1 2010 which equals a US hd2 version.. of course the price will go down, the question is how much...

in 2-3 months I'd say $599-699, depending on the masses and on the other telephone manufacturers :)
[HD2 General] tomksoft:
As long as there is no other so cool and powerful stuff, price will be quite stable I think.

In fact, HD2 is not that expensive for this quality and power :)
[HD2 General] M-en-M:
It's only 513 euros over here in the Netherlands, so I suppose that the price will drop indeed.

You'll have to wait before it becomes widely available first though. ;)
[HD2 General] br3nt:
peeh!!! here in sweden its like 600+ euros, and it won't arrive until 30th november

lucky people, enjoy! :)
[HD2 General] siamchen:
The starting price for HD2 is not that high compare to the previous HTC high end phones. So, the price drop down margin is not that big. Also, they wouldn't want HD2 to stop old handset's sell.
[HD2 General] BumRush:
where have you seen it for 799 in Canada? The cheapest i could find is like 950.
[HD2 General] Xaddict:
Price drop?

I bought my HD from Clove tech uk for AU$850 and the going price with telstra was $1500. Sure, Telstra dropped their price, but not to $850.

Sure, you can see HD's for less now, but too late. It's now old stock and who wants it.

In effect the price does not go down, it just depends where you buy it.

I recommend Clove. I have bought 3 phones from them. Price was competitive but no bull**** like from expansys or like, who take your money then you wait 3-4 weeks, even though it said 'in stock' on the website.

its pretty simple in normal phones like nokia...
[General Questions and Answers] ingerasu:
u need to open contact first, then view Mr. 2's contact details. Click on menu ---> send contact via SMS/MMS

there are several option on the menu such as call, send a message, edit contact, send contact via SMS/MMS etc

hth

ok im composing new sms, now how can i add someones detail/ number from my contacts..

rememeber im sending sms to Mr 1 thats not a problem... i want to add numbers of Mr 2 and Mr 3 from contacts that Mr 1 wants thats the problem:) hope u understand now
[General Questions and Answers] ingerasu:
i've just edited my last post above, sorry my bad ^^v

unfortunately that's all i do to send contact to another numbers. I think that it's more complicated by composing a new message for sending contact details to another person (imho) well, u have to edit the contact details, and then copy and paste his number and another information to the new message
[General Questions and Answers] atifsh:
ok good atleast now i know how to do it i was reading and writing nums and then sending, really bad in rememebering numbers.:)
[General Questions and Answers] garpjr1188:

Hey Guys,

I've got an MDA Compact V which I bought from T-Mobile (UK)

I recently learned the the WM 6.5 Rom has been released by HTC for everybody with a Diamond II. Thinking that the Compact V is the same phone with a different body kit I tried to download it but after submitting my phone serial number (required) it said that it is not available for me to download.

Has anybody got a Diamond II serial number that I can use to download the new ROM? It would really help. Thanks!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] mpathan:
My understanding is, the CompactV is the same phone, but because it is rebadge it is considered a different phone by HTC with reagrds to support.

I beleive we have to wait for the official Tmobile upgrade.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] StuartMaher:
Yeah, even if you get the TD2 Rom, you will not be able to flash it to you MDA Compact V, unless you hard SPL it first.

I just wish T-Mob would hurry up :-(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] jonathanfoster:
t-mobile are releasing a rom update for windows mobile 6.5..but dont have as yet a date for when.

what i can tell you is that if you send it for repair then they will put the windows mobile 6.5 rom on it.

but that means been without it for upto 14 days..

but as soon as i know when it will be released i will post it and the download link.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] japester36:
If you HardSPL 1.83 and then download from this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=581070&page=2

Then you can install the official 6.5 ROM. (Read to the end of the thread first) I've been using it for a couple of weeks and it's fine........ apart from hating the Start Menu of course:(

[General Questions and Answers] ekevin:
Hi everybody,

I'm developing web site for mobile and I've faced an issue on our server. When I want to upload a picture and when I'm connected to the GPRS mode I experienced a random failure. Sometimes the image is received and sometimes not.

I'm using Opera 9.51b2, with IE everything is fine and I can upload. Other crazy difference is when I'm using a wifi connection I don't have this problem (or maybe once or two when I had a crap signal)

I did some tcpdump on the server and apparently the upload is ended after about 17ko (why?). Opera sends a FIN ACK around this amount of data.

Here an example of the exchange:

POST an image

chunk

chunk

chunk

around ACK 17000 Client send a ACK FIN

Server continue to send data and send a success page

I've tried on other website as well like imageshack.us pikipimp.com and I've the same result.

I've also tried with different phone models and operators and I think this issue is more frequent with old phone.

If this issue is related with a bad connection and/or with old phone, why is it such a difference between opera and ie ?

Thank you

[G1 General] streather:
Hey guys,

The earpiece speaker on my G1 has developed a fault, the fault being it doesn't appear to work, how easy is it to source a replacement for it and how easy is the repair itself? is there any guides as to how to do it around? (i looked but i couldn't find anything).

I've tried flashing the rom and doing a hard reset but its still faulty.

The loud speakers working fine though so atm all my calls have to be done on the handsfree kit or via loudspeaker which can get annoying.

any help is much appreciated

regards

[G1 General] phuKKah:
Are you using a ROM where sound works?

What ROM are you using?
[G1 General] streather:
Tried it with cynagen and the stock tmob one, same results.
[G1 General] dirtprof:
Same problem

I'm using CyanogenMod 4.2.5. I dropped the phone about a foot (it fell out of my shirt pocket as I was tying my shoe!), and the earpiece stopped working. Everything else (speaker phone, etc.) works fine.

I've seen a number of similar cases in other forums, so I'm thinking that this is a weak point. I'll attempt disassembly and see if the speaker contacts got moved or something simple. Fortunately, replacement receivers/earpiece/speakers are available over the net.

Meanwhile, I'd love to learn of others' experience with this. The tech manual makes it look like you have to just about completely disassemble the phone to get at the earpiece, even though you can easily access 3 screws on the back of the lcd. Is there a shorter route to the receiver than a complete disassembly?

[update] I found some good info (including a technical manual) by Googling "g1 phone disassembly". And searching for "g1 speaker" on eBay gave some decent looking results.

[update 2] I disassembled my phone, took out the receiver, cleaned its contacts, replaced it, and and reassembled everything. That was a pretty serious chore, and it demonstrated that a nearly complete disassembly is required to access the receiver (yes, including all the stuff at the opposite end of the phone). I don't know how to test the receiver without being in cell range, which my house is not. But at least nearly everything else still works, except the camera--I need to tear back into the phone and make sure I fully seated the FPC. I think finding a replacement receiver will be a challenge--most of what turned up on eBay is actually the main speaker on the back of the phone, and I have yet to find a vendor that sells receivers.
[G1 General] donepate:
Sadly, you will almost have to tear down the whole unit to get to it. It's not extremly diffucult, but you will need to be steady and gentle. Good luck.
[G1 General] dirtprof:
Success!

I haven't seen many report back after tearing apart their phones to address issues with a bad receiver, so here goes. My simple-minded approach of opening it up, cleaning the receiver contacts with a pencil eraser, and ensuring good alignment before reassembling WORKED. I did not have to buy a new receiver.

Now if I can just get my camera to work again (I think I didn't get the cable well seated).

[update]: camera works! Seating that FPC took some nimble fingers--I got it on the 3rd attempt. I hope this proves useful to others who, like me, do not have the warranty option for various reasons.
[G1 General] CaseyB14:
I dropped my phone once, by accident, same thing happened. The speaker you use to put your ear up to when making a phone call doesn't work, but the speaker phone speaker works as does a bluetooth headset. Called HTC lied said that it just stopped working out of no where, they said its covered under warranty. Luckily the phone is under warranty until March and will be replaced.
[G1 General] coolfrooddude:
I ran into the same problem. I was having intermittent problems with the earpiece. Yesterday I was able to take out the battery and put it in and it started working again. Today that didn't help either. I saw this thread and I thought that I'd try blowing really hard on the earpiece to see if that helps. It seems to be working again! I hope it continues to work.
[G1 General] RueTheDay:
Can you post details on how to do this?

My camera stopped working too.
[G1 General] gospeed.racer:
I personally found it easier when disassembling the phone to carefully lift the entire camera and IMEI sticker as a whole unit and remove it as part of the motherboard. That way you dont need to mess with that hard to reach connector. So from where you are at, lift the board back out, reattach the camera assembly, and reassemble as a unit. I think you will find it is MUCH easier
[G1 General] dirtprof:
Seat the camera FPC fully

I had to lift the motherboard up and away from the hook that held it down in order for the FPC clip to open fully. Then I inserted the FPC *fully* before closing the FPC clip (my failures resulted from not being able to fully seat the FPC because the FPC clip could not fully open as long as the motherboard was in place). Then the trick was to get the motherboard back under its hook without accidentally pulling the FPC back out again. What I did was to press it gently straight down, using my fingernail to ease it past the hook.

Good luck!
[G1 General] spongaweb:
bump...

Yeah looks like all there is on Ebay for speakers is the back one, the one for the receiver earpiece looks like it has two wire connections at each end while the one for the back speaker has them right next to eachother.

So if anybody had this problem, it is very odd and might have to do with the spring connection maybe.

Still I had this problem before and it fixed itself randomly, but this problem came out of nowhere because 12 hours earlier I had dropped my phone on its back and it continued to work fine. Than on my way driving randomly it would not work and I barely set it down in my car.

Once again hopefully somebody has found a part for this because ebay only has back speaker parts.

Best bet is to blow on it and massage it or tap it until it works, damn this sucks because it is basically the very last step to get to after dissambling your phone. So much work to get to such a common problem for many people.

I almost wanted to try to shortcut it and undo the two screws on the screen section to move it around to make connection. Now I am the deusche bag with the bluetooth in his ear all the time.
[G1 General] dirtprof:
That was what I tried at first. It didn't gain me access to the speaker.

Taking the phone apart is a pain. You really need nimble fingers and faith that you're not breaking the phone when you're levering apart the *very* tightly held together plastic parts. HTC did not make this thing with servicing it in mind. Just be sure to have the right tools (including light and a good magnifying glass if you're over 40) and patience.
[G1 General] gospeed.racer:
Removing the 3 screws that are accessible without disassembling the entire phone will get you in there if you are VERY careful. Unfortunately the one I tried this on did not work differently with a known-good speaker in it. You can delicately dig out the old speaker with a knife (Xacto) and drop the new one in. Takes patients, but not nearly as hard as disassembling the entire phone (been there, done that x10)

I have at least one spare speaker. Maybe more, gotta check my stockpile!
[G1 General] topnomi:
Hey,

My phone got dropped in a rum & coke on Saturday, so i soaked it in 90% rubbing alcohol and let it dry in a rice bath. after 4 days in the rice, it looked dry, so i turned it on. IT WORKS! The screen looks a little trippy (the pattern is even changing throughout the day) but the touch and accelerometer work great. The only real problem is the speakers sound like crap. the receiver is so quiet that it sound like they're wispering, and the back speaker is all crackely.

I found a replacement receiver speaker, but as i haven't taken it apart yet, i was hoping one of you could tell me if this looks correct.

http://www.tvc-mall.com/details/Replacement-Speaker-Earpiece-Receiver-for-HTC-G1-HTCO-G1/photos.htm

If so, i guess i'll order both speakers and attempt to replace them. :D
[G1 General] dirtprof:
That looks about right. Bear in mind, of course, that those pictures are greatly magnified. If you haven't taken apart a G1 yet, you're in for a bit of nerve-wracking prying. Just go slowly and be patient. Getting all the way to the receiver speaker means taking the phone most of the way apart.
[G1 General] topnomi:
Thanks!

I have taken apart a phone before, the Dash (excalibur). I had to replace the screen, it involved removing almost every component.

I think i'll go ahead and order it, and cross my fingers. right now the phone isn't much more then a tiny computer, since i can't hear anyone and i don't have a Bluetooth.
