I believe any Toshiba TG01 case should fit perfectly. Obviously except silicon ones...
[HD2 General] kjt57:
I know Piel Frama are expensive but are excellent quality and you get great service from them. I had one for my HD, it split at the bottom and I could not remember where I bought it. I contacted Piel Frama and within a week I had a replacement....FOC.

I like the custom version where you can choose colour and have text added, but £90!!
[HD2 General] lopche:
What's wrong with the original leather case?

It kind of like apple's, but stylish...
[HD2 General] pgamble:
I ordered the Classic Piel Frama in black direct. There is a 10 day production delay which is a pain ... but it is clearly the best on the market ... it covers ever edge yet still exposes the rocker, USB, 3.5mm jack, camera, flash, ear phone and speaker.

The slip case that came with it was too tight. I know it would loosen ... but given that the smallest bit of grit in a case that tight would leave the most appalling mark, it wasn't worth the risk. I also need in protected all the time ... and I need it on my belt ... personal needs, but important for me.

Got the pair of HTC protectors yesterday. Will put one on at the weekend.

hi

plz tell me if any one hv solution for this.

I hv m1000 wid Broken screen which i hv replaced today and updated my m1000 from WM5 to WM6. But the Start Menu takes 20-25 seconds to pop up. All other Menu like Tap and hold are also taking same time to popup. volume Bubble aslo hv same issue and there is no sound. Every thing else is working fine like file explorer, other programs , phone ETC.

I hv tried these

1. Switch back to old LCD .(No luck)

2. Switch back to different wm5 and wm6 rom. (same issue)

3. Switch back to wm3 Rom.(Every thing works well)

4. Too many Hard Reset.(no luck)

5. Battery Removal for long time.(no luck)

6. DOC re partitioning.(no luck)

GOT MY DEVICE FIXED

Thanks to all here for their support. I got my device fixed. Problem was in my New Lcd it has a faulty Belt which only works if some pressure is applied on it so i putted a rubber behind it and now it is working. But bad luck is that i hv given the Positive feedback for that LCD on ebay.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] flyboyovyick:
hi

Ye i had the same issue. Keep reflashing until a rom gets to a decent speed then reflash back to the rom you want.

Or it might be that the rom is not for himalaya?

Definately keep reflashing.

it worked with me

BTW: The rom in the signature picture is wrong i think.

My rom is WM 6.5 CE OS 5.2.23409.5.4.0 by zjw831

Screenshot below
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] krishan2207:
Thanks for ur reply.

I hv reflashed alot but the problem is still there But One of Ather's Rom is working little good. at that rom Start Menu is working But no Sound and Other POPUP Menus are still Very Slow.

And signatures are not wrong cause i hv 4 devices.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Ather:
it could be a faulty RAM, or you screwed the device too hard or too lose, try to check that :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] krishan2207:
hi bro

i hv tried a Pdaviet Rom now all the things r working except Sound. if i play a mp3 file media player shows Error that "device attached to system is not functioning". And if the device is loose or tight it will also not worked wid WM3. it is working flawlessly wid WM3.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:
Sounds like a faulty RAM to me, too. Or some other hardware issue. Worn battery?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] krishan2207:
hi nd thnks for ur support.But how a faulty device works in WM3.and will a faulty Ram behave differently with diff. roms?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:
It´s because diffent parts of the memory are used. Look at aeroflylubys kitchen. He has got an equal issue with broken ram. He can´t flash/use WM6.5 anymore. On WM 6.1 everything works fine. Strange, but not impossible! Good Luck.

PS: As Senior I guess you know how to hard reset, as it differs from Wm2k3!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] krishan2207:
hey I hv just open my device nd chk for any physical damage. But nothing is there. And after re-assembling

1. Sound Works.

2. No slowdown at all.

3. Backlight Goes permanently off. (during boot also)

I hv tried the wm3 rom now it has sound but no backlight and no TOUCH in wm3.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:
It is a hardware issue, for sure!

Check the wires between TS and MB, but be carefull. One mistake and you will wreck your device!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] Ather:
yep, its a hardware issue, try to re-assemble it

if you want, i can link you with a PDF Guide :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] krishan2207:
thnx but I hv the pdf. and i hv dropped that idea to fix the m1000.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] muckelmaus:
Yes, please! Give us that link, as hardware problems are nor rare these days!

So drunk, that pants got pissed. But the piss was so alcoholic it all evaporated. What do you think about how i should make sure the phone is dry?:confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] The Jack of Clubs:
look behind the battery for a white tab. itll be pink or red if it got wet.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Thresher:
Holy **** LOL

1. adult diapers

2. Store phone for 24 hours in a bag of rice... but its probably too late.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mtbmdk:
And.................What was the solution?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] LumberjackZac:
Thought this phone was a goner. After a few weeks in the rice it would turn on audio only. then crash and keep trying to boot.

For some reason yesterday the screen lit up as well... Any Hope for this HTC yet? It will crash right after the radio/rom screen, it says energyrom setting up device.. which is because i hard reset it when the screen was not working off memory. It was worth a shot. What should i do now guys?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] AUTiger83:
. . . uh . . . wash your hands . . .
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mahender:
even if you dry it it will stink of piss lol
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] :
its called buy a new phone because the device is literally useless now. if you didn't have insurance on the phone you are pretty much out of luck.

tvos
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] rmcknight:
Rice is not really a good desiccant. You need to get a bag of silica gel (the stuff that comes in small bags in luggage and stuff) and dismantle the phone as much as you feel comfortable and then leave it in a bad of that for several days.

You should be able to find it at a hardware store. I had a LG Shine that was left in a downpour for 2 hours face down and stepped on. Replaced the screen and left it in a bag of silica gel for 4 days and it has been working for 4 months now.

Another totally desperate thing to try after all else fails is the oven. Set it for like 150 degrees and leave the phone in it for 30 minutes or so. If you've got nothing left to lose it can't make it any worse. Take out the SIM, microsd, and battery first!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kusbainian:
suffice to say ... that since your phone is already useless ... try the extreme ...

rinse it in rubbing alcohol (remove any small particles that might be breaking contact). Take out the battery first (wipe that separately)

then soak it in uncooked rice or silica gel

just a suggestion ... never tried it ... anyone else like to chime in on this one?

If you do try it ... let us know your results.
[HD2 General] SteelyEyed:
There seem to be some issues with coreplayer on the HD2. Couple of reports in the corecodec forums. Personally I can't play anything downloaded off iplayer - it crashes the phone and it needs a soft reset to recover.

Anyone else seen a problem?

HD2/myplayer/coreplayer

Hmmph. Hope this is the right place to post and that someone can help...

I wanted to get iPlayer working on my HD2 (T-mobile). Investigated various methods and got nearest with myplayer.

However, when coreplayer is invoked all I get is a dark screen with the player controls at the bottom, menu items etc, and a rotating-dots hourglass thing (sorry - don't know tech term for that). It seems to have loaded the duration of the stream but gone straight to the end of it (the position slider is all the way to the right).

I have set the video out to GDI.

I'm using a Wi-Fi connection (phone turned off).

myPlayer version: 1.080

CorePlayer version: 1.3.6 build 7427 for ARM

Sometimes in CorePlayer I get the following error and then the device locks up.

"File not found!rtsp://3gp-acl.bbc.co.uk:554/3gpclip/iPlayer (FFFFFFF8)".

Any ideas please?
[HD2 General] echops:
HD2/myplayer/coreplayer

Hi All!

Similar to David Copus -[HD2/myplayer/coreplayer] problems. :confused: myPlayer starts up coreplayer but hangs on trying to load the stream video. I tried player through divx 0.9 also and asplayer

I have set the video out to GDI and RawFrame Buffer

I'm using a Wi-Fi connection

myPlayer version: 1.080

CorePlayer version: 1.3.6 build

Please help.

If there are also any support ideas on trying to run .avi

coreplayer and divx player run some but some files require AC-3 & some ATS or something? (Do i need to wait for coreplayer 2.0 or are there alternatives?)

Thanks
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Any idea?

I seem to have the same issue as the above two people!

Coreplayer 1.3.6 working fine, using GDI, quite happy with that. However when I come to use myPlayer it just launches with a blank screen (although I can get certain "live" content to work - so far BBC News 24 and Sky News!).

Anyone any ideas?

(thanks)
[HD2 General] Archer:
Same here, except I'm using 3G and not tried RawFrame.

I've downloaded and played something via myPlayer, but if I try to stream I get the same as the guys above - it's as if it's jumped right to the end of the stream and therefore won't play. If I move the slider back to the beginning, I just get the "busy" animation ad infinitum.

Can't be doing with having to download everything I want to watch!
[HD2 General] y2kbigmac:
yeah!!! I changed to this setting then it works!!!

thank you so much!!!

I had tried to search the method from a lot of HK forums but only found the method here!!
[HD2 General] DeltaSierra4:
DeltaSierra4

Guys, please help

I have an HTC HD2 and have successfully installed Coreplayer and MyPlayer. Every time I try to run MyPlayer I get the much mentioned error below:

myPlayer Exception

1.090

Execution error unable to invoke media player in the path:

\Program Files\SorePlayer\player.exe

....

________________________________

I have made the Video change to GDI in CorePlayer and it makes no difference.

P.S. I can only assume that the good people at CorePlayer are doing their very best to dissuade people from using their product. You need some persistence to get to the stage where you get their product on your device. Is it any wonder that iPhone and the app store is so successful?
[HD2 General] aiwama:
I have been steaming iPlayer and several live radio and TV stations from all over the world with Skyfire - and over 3G! No problems at all :p
[HD2 General] Sky Forever:
For CorePlayer use:

DirectDraw

Overlay format YUY2

uncheck all in DirectDraw tab

Most speedy for me :) about 2.7 Mbit/s
[HD2 General] FryWalker:
The error tells us that the core player application cannot be found at the location specified. Looks like a typo in the path.

I would suggest:

\Program Files\SorePlayer\player.exe

should be set to:

\Program Files\CorePlayer\player.exe

Best thing to do is to select "Other" and use the "..." button in myPlayer to find the application on your device.

Hope that helps!

[HD2 General] dso371:
Yes, Coreplayer crashes the HD2

Yes, me too. Got my HD2 yesterday. Stupid WMP won't play avi, so I shelled out for Coreplayer and the first 2 avi files I tried to play and it crashed the phone and had to do a soft reset. The files play fine on my PC.

Can't find any other avi player for the HD2 on the Net. Betaplayer and its variants are all versions of Coreplayer.

Any ideas, anyone?:mad:
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
I don't have CorePlayer, but assuming it works the same way as TCPMP, try choosing DirectDraw as your video renderer and YUY2 as your DirectDraw overlay format. Tick the "use device stretching" box and uncheck the others on the DirectDraw page. If all that doesn't help then change the renderer to GDI.

EDIT: as this post has been linked to a couple of times recently, I felt I should redraft it a little!

The full set of optimum video settings for TCPMP or Coreplayer (in my opinion) is:

- Orientation: left-handed

- Zoom: fit best

- Video renderer set to DirectDraw

- Smooth zoom to "on" or "always" (NOT to 50%)

- Dither on (for the times when you need to switch to GDI, e.g. for subtitles)

- In the DirectDraw properties, set overlay format to YUY2. Also tick the box that says "use device stretching when blitting" and untick the other two boxes.
[HD2 General] dso371:
Fix for Coreplayer avi problem

Fixed. The Corecodec support forum has the answer: go into Video Settings in Coreplayer, and change from DirectDraw to GDI. Both avi files play just fine now and the player is excellent.

Cheers,

David:)

[HD2 General] nizaamh:
hi. i use coreplayer on my hd2.certain avi. movies play for a minute then stops and then looks likes its buffering( you know with the icon turning in the middle of the screen.is this a movie problem or can the settings be changed in coreplayer.

Oh yes it eventually stops then restarts the movie on its own.

thanks :confused:

Live TV problem

I'm having problems playing Live TV in myPlayer on my HD2.

I'm running everything through Streaming Media player (haven't got CorePlayer yet) and have no problems running iPlayer episodes, but when I try any of the Digital TV (UK) channels, I get a "failed to connect" error from Streaming Media player.

Any ideas?
[HD2 General] FryWalker:
Try reducing the live TV quality to standard or low on the Options menu.

did you change the panels?

Yes, I did change the panels. There is no error message but after launching HaRet, it starts going through all the initialization and it stops, as if it was waiting for input "\#". I tried 1 2 and 3 for the panels and I think that 2 is the one that worked (no more flashing white screen).

I will give 111609 a shot and see if that works. Thanks for the suggestion.

Install a **** load of other cool programs to make your phone cooler

Be prepared for a lot of tweaking and backup your contacts with activesync or if your not a power user just install a program called pim backup so you can backup everything to your storage card incase you need to restore it all back if you have to format your phone (which is common with windows 6.5+) Getting windows 6.1 with spb mobile 3.5 would most likely be the best stable combo in my opinion
[HTC Vox] dantes13:
For some time I have had battery problems with my VOX, in Venezuela did not get and buying it on the outside is almost impossible.

So I decided to adapt another of another brand, I tried several models and found that making an adjustment to the battery of "Blackberry" you can make it work.

The battery in question is the C-S2, is a 750 mAh battery which will reduce the operating time especially if you use the WiFi, Bluetooth or music player; but its size and internal electronics is compatible with the VOX. I have a HTC S711, Latin American version of the S710.

The adjustment of the battery is very simple, cut the reliefs found in the base and the battery will fit perfectly on the phone. If the battery is new, it is necessary charge it for at least 8 hours with the phone off.

If you want longer duration of operation of the phone, can replace the battery model for the C-M2 (900 mAh) or the C-X2 (1400 mAh).

I hope this will be helpful to anyone who like me search the original battery of this equip and not get it.

Did you try out the others as well? They are all for different devices (and in the online shops they also look different, at least the color is...).
[HTC Vox] tazzix:
I bought an old Dopod C500, the seller told me the battery needs replacement, but finding the battery is not an easy task so I got some info here, luckily got a CX-2 while even the shopkeeper did not know he has one,

1. CX-2 is a mm thicker than the CS-2 and hence cover can not be closed, its a tight fit so battery does not drop but a solution is required maybe to use double sided tape or something.

2. The capacity is good but the phone is unable to charge the battery and an external charger is required, I even tried using a blackberry charger to over come this, but no luck. The external charger means you need to pull out the battery and leave the phone off for a couple of hours or have two batteries to use one and charge the other.

hi all i have taken about 4hours today testing the camera to the end of my will, now i hope this thread will help other and i intend to include pics of every content and do a full review of the htc hd2 camera but here's a few samples while i get the review on the way

TIPS FOR BETTER PICTURES

- turn off wide-screen in the settings for true 5mp, if u have it on u get lower res Normal screen = 2592 x 1944 / Wide-screen = 2592 x 1552

- set white balance to the sunny settings in all condition not auto or u will get weird colors with most of ur pics (see samples below)

SAMPLE PICTURES UNEDITED

- 5mp + very fine mode + touch focus + sunny (not auto whitebalance)

click for full res, untouched quality

the above pics where static objects great focus

now to compare auto whitebalance to sunny none auto setting all pics still full res, untouched quality

auto settings -------/------- sunny setting

the above pics where static objects great focus

auto settings -------/------- sunny setting

the above pics where static objects great focus

auto settings -------/------- sunny setting

the above pics where is moving objects focus had issues here

auto settings -------/------- sunny setting

the above pics where static objects great focus also high light levels

SAMPLE VIDEOS UNEDITED

- 640x480 + MPEG4 + sunny setting + touch focus

[HD2 General] Diplomate:
Thanks for your samples....

...the pictures seem to show a great deal of sharpening on them. Did you apply that in post-prod, or is it done automatically in-camera?

Also, as soon as I get my HD2 (which has been stuck in a post office all week-end... grrrr!!!!!), I will try to take a reference picture of a netural gray card, and then subtract it from real-life photos using photoshop. This should really get rid of the magenta color cast in the middle of each photo, though it would be a pain to have to do this extra step for each picture one wishes to keep...
[HD2 General] NZtechfreak:
