[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
I've tried to remove aTrackDog, and I'm still getting the same behavior. I really doubt that it has to do with that app, but rather the people that use that app are more aware of version numbers, and are the ones noticing it.

I'm assuming lots of people have Pandora on this board (or mileage, Advanced Task Manager or NewsRob for that matter) so we need more people to try to reproduce this issue!

What I'm trying now is to uninstall the app (in my case I'm using Pandora as it says the version number on launch) then reboot the phone, and then reinstall, use it to see the new version, and then reboot to see if it gets reverted.

What's the result? IT REVERTED AGAIN. This is definitely a bigger issue than we realize...but WE NEED PEOPLE TO REPRODUCE THIS.

EDIT:

I also emailed Pandora support to see if they can't reproduce the issue or help me figure out what's up.

I also emailed the devs for aTrackDog to see if they can't shed some light on what might be going on. Hopefully they'll be quick to help, so we can squash this biznatch.

I also posted a question in the App Market Google Forum, and hopefully someone at Google will help figure this out. http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=56ff6f465d6e5e34&hl=en

I also reproduced this issue with TEN more apps:

Astro File Manager

Google Sky

Google Voice

Backgrounds

Barcode Scanner

Shop Savvy

Battery Widget

Daily Horoscope

Facebook

Movie Finder

Google, you got some 'splaining to do.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gilroykilroy:
I use Astro to backup files to my SD card. After I reboot I go through all the "red" files (ones where the SD card version is newer than the installed version) and "upgrade" them with the SD card version.

Alas the Market app tends to "lose" the fact I downloaded some of these apps and no longer tracks them for updates :(

Something is definitely wrong somewhere.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chewwy420:
I'm seeing the same issue, I even tried a factory reset and still happening.

You can add to the list:

Touchdown

Sipdroid

I think it is just about all apps. Even if you uninstall and reinstall the latest version seems to revert back to original version you installed for the first time.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] TheTreee:
Locale...

This happened to me this week with Locale. I had beta .68 and upgraded to beta .69.

A couple of days later, I noticed I was still running beta .68. I thought maybe they had forgotten to update the name in the app itself, but after seeing this thread, I'm betting it's an HTC Sprint Hero bug.

I also re-visited the Android Market to see if I could re-download beta .69, but it didn't recognize that the program could be updated. It must think I'm running beta .69, but I'm pretty sure I'm still rocking beta .68.

Verrrrry strange...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] lonequid:
I just reproduced this as well, with AK Notepad.

I had 1.9.3b installed; upgraded to 1.9.4. rebooted; now it shows 1.9.3b again

I'm using modaco's rom with apps2sd setup. Is this happening on stock heros too?

edit:

From what I've been able to gather from Handcent SMS's version changelog and look for in the actual application I have on my phone, it appears that it is only the display of the version that is reverting, not the application itself. I have this issue with Handcent and even the "about" dialog inside the application reports the older version, but I am seeing features and changes that only appear in later versions according to the changelog. We'd need a major update of an application to test this further.

edit2:

grinched from #android on EFNet helped test this on a stock CDMA Hero and was able to replicate it with Barcode Scanner.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bl4ckcontact:
So I've been having issues with the earpiece on my Hero from day 1 and I'm concerned the speaker may be blown. Any sound coming from the earpiece above 75% volume seems to be accompanied with a nasty vibrating sound (which I know for sure is from the speaker and not a call quality issue). Does anyone else experience this? I need to know if the hero's earpiece speaker simply cannot sound at high volume or if my speaker is blown. I dont wanna have to exchange the phone and pay for another ghost armor kit and install!

Manila = TF3D (touch flo 3D)

within manila,there are two versions; 2.0 and 2.1

then there is the newer manila called sense, that is manila 2.5 and the latest version of sense is 2.6

hope its a little more clearer now for you :)
[General Questions and Answers] dim4x4:
Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] alex fung:
Is Sense Manila 2.5 or 2.6

Thank you! :)

The terms are so puzzling.

My HD2 has Sense, but how do I tell whether it is manila 2.5 or 2.6? About Phone says Manila version is 1.0.19211620.0, so what does it mean?
[General Questions and Answers] dwizzy130:
That is incorrect.

Manila = all versions of TFLO3D and Sense.

There is TouchFlo3D2.0 and 2.1.

There are newer builds of TouchFlo2.1 called HTC Sense.

There is also manila 2.5, which is also called HTC Sense.

Manila 2.6 is the exact same as Manila 2.5 but it is for a different type of processor and it will not run on any of HTC's current devices that use Quallcomm processors.

Hope this clears things up. The HTC Leo comes with Sense 2.5.

[General Questions and Answers] alex fung:
Thanks. It is even more complicated that I supposed. But it is good enough now that I know what mine is. :)
[General Questions and Answers] mancsoulja:
Here we go lol, Manila is the working name for HTC's 3D user interface, this comes in 2 types, TouchFlo 3D and Sence, TouchFlo 3D is the oldest version of manilla it Starts at v1.0 and goes up to v2.1, Sence is the newer version of Manila It starts at v2.1 and goes up to v2.6.

so in short imagine sence as an upgrade to the touchFlo 3D, where TouchFlo Finishes at 2.1 then it goes to sence 2.1, 2.5, 2.6 ect
[General Questions and Answers] mancsoulja:
You are correct sence 2.6 uses PVR for the gfx and quallcomm chipsets dont support this, this manila was developed for the HTC Qilin wich uses OMAP3

The weather of the current location is displayed in the "home screen". But this information wil not update. Doesn't matter what i tried.

It keeps to be "Emmen" (the Netherlands) and the last update was done yesterday(just after i installed dutty's 6.5 rom). I updated all data in the weather tab and all other locations do update, but the current location doesn't. I can't delete the current location of change the place which weather info i want in the home-screen.

Does anyone have a "FIX" for this or any other solution ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Superman_1122:
On the weather tab, did you go to Menu > Settings > Update > Auto-Update?

This will then update the weather on the home screen also.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] totix:
Hello, I too have the same problem, the home location is not updated with a WAP connection but only directly from the internet (wifi). Maybe you can fix by acting on the register?

Ciao.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] pinpointrobin:
WIFI helps....

Hi totix.....

Setting up only the WIFI and lose the 3G and data connection helps for the update in the homescreen....

So thanks for this tip.

I wonder if it is possible to update this screen without a wifi connection. Should be possible, right?

How to fix this in the register is a big question for me.

Maybe someone else who can help me / us ?

Hi All,

I've made another one-line code application :) that could be useful for somebody... ;) (as for me)

Send WinKey is tiny application that is emulating click (rather pressing button) of Windows Key... *

You can use it while binding / mapping your hardware keys (ex Xperia, Touch Pro etc.) when You need the "fast" opening of Start menu (not touching screen but pressing the button...)

before:

after:

it's simple... and tiny... ;)

*yesssss... I know that MortScript has got that kind of options... but ...

not everybody needs to have mortscript installed... or not everybody wants to edit those lines of scripts/codes... etc) :) cheers...

Very good app. Been searching for a long time something like this. On htc hd is quite difficult in some positions to reach with the finger the windows flag in the top left bar to open the start menu. So I put a shortcut of the SendWinKey in the first app box of the Manila Sense homescreen.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Livven:
Great man, really useful for me! Thanks :).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AndyDavidson:
Very hand app.

This is a very useful app - many thanks for it.

Would it be possible in some future version, to allow arguments in a shortcut so it could open a particular start menu subfolder?

So you could create a shortcut along the lines of “SendWinKey.exe \Windows\Start Menu\Tools\”

This would then open the tools folder, but in the style of the start menu/offset grid view, rather than through the file explorer view?

This way you could create a series of shortcuts to open particular start menu subfolders and effectively create a series of "HTC Action Screen" style panels simply using the usual start menu.

I've tried using the modified "folderview.exe" cab from this forum, but it opens folders in the older style windows (WM6.1) rather than the sliding grid (WM6.5) style.

Thanks again, much appreciated.

Cheers,

Andy.

Thanks for this small, but EXTREMELY usefull program.

Related story:

I read I needed the 'HTC scroll' dll to be able to scroll in a program and installed 'ASerg HTC Scrolling.cab' on my HTC touch Diamond. Result after soft-reset: non-functioning touch screen. :-( Which also meant no access to the settings to un-install. My phone was set up as an USB-drive, instead of in ActiveSync mode, so remote clicking of 'start' didn't work either. I tried to install your .cab file, but I couldn't select the 'install' button either. :-S

Extracted the .cab file, renamed 'SENDWI~1.001' to SendWinKey.exe and copied it to the 'USB-drive' phone.

Now, because I connected the USB-drive again, the 'windows explorer' switched from USB-drive to the internal memory, with no way to switch back.

Eventually I was able to launch your program by first launching 'total commander' (which was luckily enough still looking at the storage card)

Thanks for saving my day!

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] vale:
I am a proud magic owner but as some users have found out like me, it is a slippery fish when it comes to its glossy covers. At first I did not use the slightly camp white leather pouch the magic comes with and now I am regretting it.

The phone has now acquired some bumps and scraps. I thought to my self I would replace the phone covers. So I ordered some on the bay and got them sent to my office.

I hunted down the service manual for the phone. (If anyone is looking for this I have it uploaded here).

I merrily went to work disassembling it bit by bit until I came across a slight problem. Now I have uploaded pictures to illustrate my woes.

First the battery cover was completely rubbish, the brushed steel plate that surrounds the camera was dented and also had the metal grate missing which usually covers the speaker. This was not the biggest worry however.

When I dismantled the phone I got to the stage of separating the the front cover from the middle part of the case. Now as you can see on this picture on the back of the mid section of the case there are two white label like stickers which have gold contacts on the inside.

There are more of these labels on the antenna at the bottom of the phone also. They make contact with gold contacts on the phones main board. I assume the bottom antenna is the gsm antenna and the the contacts on the top are for the gps. I could be wrong though this could be the other way around.

The problem is these label type contacts are not present on my new case mid section as I have shown here in this picture.

Has anyone else had any experience with changing the covers on this phone. Or if these contacts are important or even if its possible to find these labels so I can fit them to my new case.

Cheers for any help you can give me, or if any of this info is useful to you also if you are in the same sticky situation. :)

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] constablechris:
Hi All,

I have used the search function - but ended up getting confused.

I have a Touch HD that I bought in January of this year (2009) from Mobiles.co.uk (Carphone Warehouse) and is on the O2 network (UK).

I have been using Dutty's ROMs (both 6.1 and 6.5) for months now - and have always used USPL when flashing, using the SD card method.

Over the past 3 days, my HD has been playing up.

When it started, I was using Dutty's R7. The radio was 1.14.something.something. The device was working perfectly, and I was really happy with the ROM and the way the phone was working. I had installed NO other applications with the exception of a different taskbar and obviously SDKCerts.cab

First of all, HTC Sense stopped working - it would cycle between "Loading HTC Sense" and "Tap here to launch HTC Sense"

Then, when rebooting the device, it just hung on the "Smart Mobility" screen. I left it in case it just needed a while to boot, but nothing.

I had no other option than to hard reset.

It worked OK for a few hours, but then HTC Sense started to crash again. So I flashed a new ROM - Lost in Asia or whatever it is called.

Same symptoms.

I flashed Dutty's R7 back and also the new 1.17 radio.

No joy.

The phone also hangs for ages on the Smart Mobility screen - perhaps a full minute where as before, it used to be no more than 15 seconds or so.

The following is displayed on the "Smart Mobility Screen"

1.17.25.09

52.69.25.37H

1.59.Dutty

The bootloader screen (before running USPL) shows the following:

BLAC100 32M

SPL-1.54.0000

MicroP-BlackStone (LED) V6

So the question I'm asking - is... Is my phone suffering some kind of hardware malfunction, or is this a known and fixable fault that I somehow have caused?

If the phone looks like it is malfunctioning, how would I go about returning it to stock so that the CPWH repair centre do not know it's had an unofficial ROM installed?

I'd like to add that whilst I'm very PC literate, I'm no programmer and a lot of the stuff here is alien to me hence my confusion - I just know how to flash a new ROM etc.

Thanks to anyone that takes the time to help me - I'd be really thankful to anyone that helps me sort this - be it tell me how to fix the device, or tells me to take it back!

Thanks in advance & Regards,

Chris.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] constablechris:
Will D/L and flash Dutty's R0 Holy Grail ROM and see if that makes a difference...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] a1gp:
If you've been using uspl than it will still be the stock spl and thus you could try to load the stock rom from htc.com specially designed for the touch hd(blackstone). I've read and heard from a lot of people that after flashing several roms and even hard resetting afterwards, some bits and pieces stay behind and flashing an original stock rom will undo this. I don't think it's a radio issue. And another big thing if you use dutty R7 that's a 1.56+ rom so you should have the right uspl olinex software to load these roms, if you used older software then problems with colouring and other things will appear.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] constablechris:
Thanks for the quick reply.

So is it perhaps better to revert to the original ROM before flashing a cooked ROM? I always Hard Reset twice after flashing as understand this helps.

OK - so the 1.56+ situation - I was under the impression that using the latest USPL (2.5) when flashing was OK? I have never had the colour problem... but perhaps if I'm flashing wrong then these problems could be to do with this?

Thanks again...

Chris
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcdull:
The Sense Manila has known bug that you need to press home to load it (sometimes).

For you case, I would suggest you to clean up your SD Card.

there may be several file that cause your system to freeze.

So, format your SD, hard reset.. and cross fingers.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] a1gp:
Yes, It is better to revert to the original rom once in a while before flashing a new rom, if u used the latest uspl and the colours are ok, then you've done that right and it will probably be bits and pieces of old flashed roms floating around on the device.

Best to revert to stock rom and hard reset twice.

Afterwards flash the rom u want. If everything works again. U could hspl instead of uspl, hspl is more stable if u ask me. And you can go back to stock spl if you have waranty issues. there's a tut on that to in the rom section.
