[Touch HD General] blitzkrieg7710:
Heyy Guys.... its been a while that the screen is behaving this way... Well when i tilt the phone sideways, i see a sort of reflection which you get when oil is spilled on water... its not all over the phone but in a limited area... i thot earlier that it was because of the scratch guard, but when i changed it yesterday, the weird reflection is still there :confused:... is it an hardware issue??? is anyone facing the same problem??? please help me know as then i might have to return it for warranty !!!! Cheers !!! Thx !
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Could you post image so I can clarify your issue
[Touch HD General] mancsoulja:
sounds like the dreded newton ring :eek: and if it is htc prob wont do it under warrenty as they claim its because of excessive pressure to the screen, some people claim that it happens because the digitzer has dippped in the middle, and is touching the lcd screen, one person said that he fixed it by applyin adhesive tape to the screen then pulling it off repeatedly, aparantly if you do this maybe 10-20 times it pulls the digitizer off the lcd and the newton ring disapears :confused:
[Touch HD General] blitzkrieg7710:
Heyyy @fallen spartan... the pic posted by @mancsoulja is excatly what my screen looks like...

heyyy @mancsoulja... thx for posting that image !!!!

Are you aware of any way of fixing this other than tthe one mentioned above as i dont wish to damage th screen any further by using th adhesive tape !!!:confused:!!!
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
If it is indeed as mancsoulja posted above and a Newton Ring then unfortunately I haven't heard of any others ways to fix it. :(

I suggest you read this thread already discussing the newton ring.
[Touch HD General] blitzkrieg7710:
thx 4 th info @fallen spartan.... u can close th thread if u want... i'll keep a track of tht linked thread... cheers!!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Th3 Ripper:
Hi,

I have flashed quite a few roms to my Touch Pro but my most recent update has led to me being only able to have either internet or email but not both at the same time.

I use T-Mobile in the UK.

If I change the change the connectivity settings between T-Mobile PictureMessaging and T-Mobile Internet I can either download my email or use the internet but not both.

Any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Treefallingquietly:
I was lurking over at the sprint hero board and came across an interesting thread. People are noticing an increase in battery life when the set the wifi settings for sleep to Never.

Seems like what is happening, as soon as the phone blanks out, WIFI is turned of and the phone is switched to EVDO mode. which drains battery. If your in a bad coverage area your battery drains even faster.

Some people are talking about a performance increase as well, but I think what they are seeing is the phone not having to cycle back to wifi everytime they touch the phone.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] katmandu421:
Interesting, but is this for those who always have wifi enabled (I never use it)? I'll try anything to get more from my battery since I can barely squeeze out about a day (18 hours) from my phone even with the sms workaround implemented.

I'm looking in the wifi settings and don't see any options for "wifi sleep".
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Treefallingquietly:
Here is the link: http://community.sprint.com/baw/thread/24324?tstart=0

Basically, when you are in an area that has spotty coverage, your battery will drain quicker because its always roaming and trying for service. I get this in the Texas Hill country. So if you have wifi and are in a bad location, whenever your wifi sleeps, it goes back to EV. I think just the nature of this connection is hard on the battery. hence using Wifi as much as possible.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] omeganot:
Another option is to use APNdroid or something like it to disable the EVDO when you're not using it. Push notifications don't always come through that way or can be slow coming, but if you know your phone is just going to sit there you can conserve a lot of power this way. Turning off GPS, WiFi and EVDO I was able to squeeze out almost 3 days of usage when I was using the phone sparingly. If you're enabling those connections only when you need them, making it through the day should be no problem if you're not constantly using the device.

Cross fingers, thank you rafyvitto :)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] casper326:
Amazing man~~~

Waiting for your news.

BTW, will the Bluetooth performance improve?
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] jmfc:
good news! is it possible to make second version with normal wm 6.5 (i mean 5.2.21857) dont like 6.5.1 big buttons style :((
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
Can't wait. This is the one I've been waiting for. How far along are you?

I kind of agree with JMFC too. Unless you can at least turn those buttons off. I still haven't played with WM 6.5 too much.

Also, I have been wondering if you could adapt the tf3d bar to go to other programs than what htc has used. IF you like a different music player or photo viewer for instance. My main uses are the programs tab, the internet tab, and the weather tab. Home and contacts being obvious as well.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] pongothemagnificent:
Ask hadubli about that mate, i dint cook the rom xD
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] pongothemagnificent:
I think this can be done by some registry changes, il have to look into that but im pretty sure it can be done, il let you know as soon as i find them.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] pongothemagnificent:
Bluetooth performance wont improve unless Acer them selfs update there bluetooth drivers, we'll have to wait for an official update from acer them selfs, btw im not having problems with bluetooth what so ever.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] freco:
+1

Who had the stupid idea of those ugly buttons. Main reason for not flased Hdubli's rom are those. And I definetely like them on top.

If I had the option to revert to 21857 rom I would proceed (even not the original).

But you are my heroes guys. Keep on.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
I thought I read that hdubli had given up on the 2.5? or are you helping him enough to make it work rafyvitto?
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] casper326:
OIC~

If My S200 connected the handfree and standby for about half hour

the bluetooth handfree will have lag,echo.

I have tried to connect the handfree to my little mobile Samsung M-628.

Everything work fine...
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] pongothemagnificent:
You could say so, i pointed him to the right OEM packages that were needed, and so he manage to make it work 98%, there are still some bugs like SMS arnt working, mails cant be open and so on, but im looking it into these problems to fix them, so no worrys, il keep you guys update, unless hdubli fixes them before me xD.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] pongothemagnificent:

[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] freco:
Nice!!! Thanks for this. ;)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] bommel0815:
it's what I use on my neoTouch :)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
skinning later may be the easiest thing to do, although I do hope they have a very thin bar for the bottom bar that fits wvga better. I don't like how it interferes with tf3d's slide bar. But really I just can't wait to get this up and running.

Also, I still need a layman's breakdown of backing up my current stock ROM. I read some of what hdubli already put out, but if it is possible to simplify it, it would be a great help.

And when this 2.5 ROM is finished, I'd love for a very simple step by step to flash it properly. I think flashing is probably easier on the f1 than it was on the f900, since I don't believed they figured out how to flash from a sdcard. But I have only done it about 3 times so far, and want to make sure I've got it down before I screw it up.

Thanks again for all the work, and I can't wait!
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
Actually, after reading more into how to backup a rom, by dumping and reconstructing, this doesn't seem to be the thing for me to attempt. I don't seem to be able to find any programs/utilities that will handle this as well. SO................

Would any of the experiencenced people here be so kind as to actually reconstruct and make a factory rom for the Acer s200 available? I am too old to learn too many new tricks, and while I am a capable dabbleler, I am by no means capable of being a professional. So knowing my limits, I can only stand on the street and ask for help.

By the way, if you need the stock rom to reconstruct, and can tell me how to dump it on my device, I would be happy to send it to you.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] hdubli:
the only differrence is the nvtable.if the right nvtable is used, this should not cause the problem..I have tried various combinations, i also have an older nvtable.csv, and it gives error, but when i replace it to the newer, then all work fine..will look into it surely
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] jmfc:

[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] chris9999:
Hi,

I have just installed the new beta 2 and everything seems to work so far (apart from a few known bugs).

What I missed is that the weather animation is not working on my home wallpaper screen anymore, although I chose weather wallpaper from Home wallpaper menu.

In Beta 1 there was no problem at all.

Is there a way to change it?

Anyway, very nice and fast Rom!!!

No need to buy a HTC Mobile Phone anymore!!!
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] jmfc:
So after few hours of testing beta2 went back to stock because of two annoying bugs:

camera button not working - cannot take picture (camera program launches ok)

and when pressing the dial button, dialer dials last number.

and also i decided that im tired of manila (my previous device was topaz, so played alot) clean optimized rom this is what i need:D

Keep up hard work guys! Rom itself is very fast and stable!
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] matooo86:
Sound :))))))

Thank you for sharing the IMPROVE SOUND.CAB now the phone is louder and clear sound. I have a stock rom EN.2.003.00.EN and its working nice:D:D:D

[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] ACK007:
thanks for your help:)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
Seems to be more stable at first glance. A couple of issues though.

First, I can't seem to figure out how to change the background on the home tab back to black. Really not a fan of the purple background. Weather background doesn't seem to be working on the home tab either.

On a soft reset, I recieved an error that a problem occurred with device.exe. I didn't get caught in the reset loop, but it did get stuck on the windows screen on the first soft reset. Appears to be running propertly now.

I assume fixsms.cab is supposed to cause it to soft reset on it's own. Because it did.

still getting stuck in reboot consistantly. two+ soft resets still occurring.

Actually, enativesuites appears to have messed a few things up. I'm going to uninstall it now, hopefully that helps.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
I am even getting stuck trying to connect to wifi. It seems like when I try to go to all settings and get away from HTCs settings. Things get screwed up. I am going to disable htc sense on the home screen, and see if I can get things working on the basic windows mobile build.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
e-natives showcase suite dosnt need to be installed guys, this 21857 build does not need any position fix...
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] sunhi3man:
beta 2

I like seeing beta 2 but would also love to see an updated base rom with the newest windows 6.5 like 28002 or higher without htc sense, but also with the newer drivers in the updated 2.03 rom.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] westswamp:
My camera and dial works good whitout problems. Still we have soft reset problems and device.exe may stop, then phone not working and reset is needed.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
I had to bail on it. I'm going back to the acer 2.03 rom which still has it's issues as well. Hopefully I'll be on the right track.

Biggest error was that for some reason my wifi wouldn't connect. It would try to and then just say available. After trying it in windows alone, it just wouldn't even turn on. Probably some other error, but I'll have to wait for beta 3 or 4 before I come back and try it again.

Great work though guys! I really appreciated the opportunity to try this out, and I hope you keep working with your acer devices in the future. While there were some bugs, as was expected, it was Manila that just hasn't really rocked my world as of yet. I seem to be along the same lines as the pocketnow review. I goes just far enough to make it burdensome. I wil just have to hope that SPB shell will progress enough to get some of the cool effects of HTC sense.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] westswamp:
I don't have any problems with wifi connection (WPA2).
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
what ezinput keyboard are you using? I'm new to it, but I liked it a lot. I don't know which version has the arrow keys at the bottom.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] light_n_roses:
ehi rafi do you know if hdubli is going to re release the 28002 build with manila 2.5 ? the nes cross bar look it's very good ....
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] netnerd:
after i tried 23506 wm6.51, i cant go back to 21857!

wm6.51 with icons/menu at bottom is much easier to access.

hopefully hdubli or rafyvitto make another 28002 based on old/shipped bootloader. :)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Dude its not the bootloader, how many times do i have to repeat my self lol, me and hdubli have tryed every possibility, acer are the only ones that can help here, THIS ISSUE IS ON SOME DEVICES ONLY!

:)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Check the first post there's already a 28002 build with manila 2.5...
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
The 28002 with manila 2.5 in the first post alrdy has the new improved oem drivers...
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] westswamp:
I noticed something strange. After few minutes calling (2.09 and 2.59 minutes) call drops and phonepad not showing. Phone shows connected to network. But if dial not connecting and calling in gives my number out of range or switch off. After soft reset phone working again normally.

Before this new ROM I wasn't noticed this before.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] tsourisg:
Thank you very much guys. Build 21857 is much more usable than the 28002 which is somewhat premature. I installed the acer keyboard but camera only works when that keyboard is default. If you select another keyboard then camera button doesn't work. The other major bug has to do with the dialer as mentioned before. It dials the last number every time you press the call button. Other than that i think that this rom is very fast and stable:).
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] fbickley:
I now agree the bottom bar is the way to go on wm. It makes it more one hand capable. Still, I may have to wait for acer to fix it's reboot problem before I mess around again too much.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
The camera has a dependencie in the easykeyboard.cab THAT'S WHY ITS NEEDED, camera wont work properly without the easykeyboard as default SIP, for the dialer..dont press the call button, press phone on homescreen.

Hello Rafy,

I found an alternative keyboard for Russian users, but it does not work the shutter button. This keyboard is a custom package of localization HD2.

Is it possible to get a working camera with this keyboard?

Thanks
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Im still hexviewing the dlls inside the easykeyboard.cab one in particular screenkb.dll, soon im going to make some test cabs, with some keyboards see if i can get the camera working without the easykeyboard full cab installed..
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
i'm using beta 2 for almost 2 days now. overall this is a very nice rom and it's quite fast on the acer!

does anyone know why you can't choose to have an animated weather wallpaper?

one more thing, if you need a different locale than english and you can't change it from inside sense configuration, the registry entry to do it manualy is:

HKU\software\HTC\manila

"locale"="en-GB"

you can set it to "el-GR" for greek etc....

[HELP] Acer s200 update rom fail

My computer suddenly offed while I was flashing the new rom #21857, Now it just shows the "ACER" icon then stops, and my computer can't not detect it. Help me, please... :(
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] milkybarkid:
Have you tried removing the battery for a bit?
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] westswamp:
Last night I re-flashed my device. First I flashed original 2.003 ROM and then 21857. All boots after flashing was normals and later was some resets when takes many times before device was normally started. Device.exe errors and ARM11 error (some missing line) was displayed. Now I have been used phone all day and I can say ROM is stable. No crashes. No more problems with phone. No call drops as yesterday evening. In settings tab "Other" I cant use Smart Lock and Gravity Sensor options. There is no OK. Only way out is reset.

I'm using PREI_GSensorSettings and I don't understand what option was enables Camera to rotate. When I started Camera and moved phone Camera started rotate and crashed. Whit default settings now it's working ok and no more rotation.

I liked 2802 release down-bar, it was finger friendly. And weather animation in Home tab. How to activate this in this version?
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Dont worry you device is partially bricked, wait a few days till hdubli releases hes hackt EUU_ACER that dont need the active sync connection, just be patient, im sorry for the sudden lost of power in your house i really feel bad for ya mate, but dont worry, hopefully you can recover it.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Guys the device error and arm11 errors are random, this also happens on my own personal device, acer needs to address this we cant do anything about it, about the "other" option in the setting thats a missing depencie, just hit menu and "all settings" this will bring you to the normal MS settings, about the camera rotating make sure its not tickt in the gsensor settings, cause if it is it will rotate and not function properly.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] watermelon212:
No, it's the same, the red light keeps flashing, and I think it was shutted off when it started to flash the rom.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] watermelon212:
:)Thanks mate! That's good news for all Acer F1 user... thank you for your reply...:)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] chris9999:
Hi,

I also liked the down-bar and the weather animation in home tab in beta 1!!!

Can it be activated in beta2? Would be great!!!

thanx
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Guys if you like the 6.5.X features reflash 28002 lol, the link is still up in the first post, its that simple.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] anzo:
Although this is the case with me I am afraid that brick in the PDA from the Latvian :( :( :(

I am confident that soon it will be a solution
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
If you have another acer device you can unbrick your acer f1 follow this steps

1.Connect your non brickt acer devices, make sure active sync detects it.

2.Run EUU_ACER.exe continue the steps until its asks if your sure to upgrade the device.

3.On the non brick device hit YES so it can go into bootloader.

4.After the non brick device goes into bootloader disconnect it, and connect your brickt acer f1 and continue to flashing the devices, this should work, let me know if it does.

Sincerly

Rafyvitto
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] anzo:
Unfortunately, there is no other F1 from me but what if it is to remain bootloader mode?.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Dosnt has to be a acer f1, it can be any other acer model...but anyways the hackt euu should be out soon.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] anzo:
Thank you for your answer, the only problem is that it is not my PDA :(
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
ohhh damn, that really sucks bricking a device thats not yours, i would kill my self xD, dont worry in the coming days the hacked euu should be ready.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] westswamp:
But then we don't have "Improved drivers" or what? And what else is changed?
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Improved drivers was just for reference all hdubli roms starting from 28002 and future ones ALREADY have the latest improved OEM DRIVERS! =]
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] richardyiu:
I installed the Improve sound.CAB on the 28002 rom and i got the "beep" sound once a while playing movie or music...anyone has the same problem?
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
yeah i have that too on 21857
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
Thats htc drivers conflicting with the new acer ones, hdubli is working on fixing it.
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
wow that was a quick reply!

Great work guys :)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
I just woke up :P
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
another thing i noticed with the known problem where the phone autodials the last number when you hit the dial button is that it doesn't always happen.

it only autodials about half the times....
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] tsourisg:
I solved that with AE Button Plus. Just assign the hardware button to "press green button" in AE options;)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
good idea.does AE button plus drain the battery faster?
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
thanks mate :cool:
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] tsourisg:
No, i didn't notice battery drainage using the latest version (2.6.6.1)
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] casper326:
So the next version will using the HTC Driver?

I just want to know if Acer S200 use the HD2 Bluetooth Driver.

Will it fix the bluetooth connection problem?:confused:
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] :
No no you got it all wrong, its the htc sound drivers that are interfiring with the new acer improved ones, and no the acer f1 cant use the hd2 bluetooth drivers different hardware...besides the acer f1 has a broadcomm bluetooth stack which is 1000 times better than the default MS stack..
[neoTouch S200 ROM Development] zaoltryence:
