I'd be glad to share the link with everyone, but I think that posting a link to TomTom Cabinet in XDA-Dev would be against the rules. If it's allowed, I'll send the link to the author of the tips n tricks post, otherwise I can send a PM with the updated .cab to those who are interested :)
[HD2 General] ennzed:
maybe renaming the file will work?
[HD2 General] Drakknar:
You can try by renaming it. Every time I was trying to rename, move or delete the file, I got an error dialog saying that the file was in use, so I had to hard reset. But in your case it may be different :)

anyone know how to solve this windows live messneger problem (see attached screen)

It happens randomly, sometimes i can connect fine and sometimes i will receive that message. My only solution is to reboot the phone but thats just annoying :D
[HD2 General] nielshtc:
I sometimes got this error on my previous HTC too (Touch Cruise) and now on the HD2 as well. So it's not phone specific but probably something in the Live software. Can be really annoying indeed..
[Android Software Development] jb4kats:
I'm coming from a Blackberry to a Samsung Moment and this is something I really do miss. I had BerryBuzz on the BB and it was by far one of the best apps for sms, email, missed call, etc. With all the devolopers out there and with their no-how and brilliant minds can't someone come up with an app similiar to this for the Moment? We owners and I'm sure I am not the only Moment owner out there with this complaint are already slighted because we don't have an LED light on top of the phone to begin with but on the Moment all we have it the home, menu and back keys that light up and even those don't alert you of incoming, and sms's but it would be very nice indeed if someone could come up with a application that would work on the Moment.

Will there ever be or is there one already in devolopment for the the Samsung Moment? I have installed several that have this feature with the LED and vibrating but of course they don't work on the Moment and I really would like to have something to make the home, menu and back keys to light up on missed calls, sms's and emails and have different colors and different vibrating patterns for each of those.

PLEASE!!!!!!! Anyone???

If there is one please let me know. I sure would be a happy droider!

Hi

I read that some guys managed to get Touch Flo 3D working on qwga devices.

Does it work on Opal too??

Thanks
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] crazy1003:
I don't think it can work well!
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic ROM Development] XirXes:
Well if its the flip clock you want you could try my rom, or you could go here to get cab versions. The newest versions of Touchflo 2d are sense based. Hope I helped.

Hi

whatever i do the home tab walppaper will not change.only animated walpapers works or default weather walpaper.but if i select different picture nothing happens.

is anyone experiencing the same bug?
[HD2 General] czbird:
Yes. I have eventually set up the wallpaper manualy in registry.
[HD2 General] HSKalay:
Hi guys, I have a quick question, something I'm trying to figure out.

I downloaded the cab on the tweaks thread for the LED notification.

Before that i'd get the LED flashing green when I get a text message.

after installing the cab, no real difference? after missed call, email etc - there is no led flashing...am i missing something here. The LED flashes green when i get a text (but it did that anyway).
[HD2 General] polystirenman:
did you change it in Start-Settings-Sound And Totifications?
[HD2 General] HSKalay:
Hello - I've been looking in that menu set, but there's nothing there regarding LED notification :S just notification sounds...:confused:
[HD2 General] czbird:
In that control panel, you have to tick the option "Flash light" for each event you want the LED notification for.
[HD2 General] HSKalay:
It's really weird, because I can not see those options there at all.

Defo have installed that CAB as it is showing in the programs management as "Microsoft LED notification enabler".

Hi,

I saw that there is setting in Sound et Notifiaction (your image), but in my phone this option (Flash light for ...) is disable.

How can I activate this option to set the notification time? Thank you
[HD2 General] s.kralemann:
Hi,

try the attached CAB! I cabbed this yesterday to enable the led notification (unlimited blinking) for SMS, email, dismissed calls and schedule notifications. After installing the CAB you can change all setting via the notifications tab. It just enables all settings and sets some reasonable values.

Bye,

Sebastian
[HD2 General] Lucius Snow:
Same here. Is it for a Hotmail account ? I wonder if it's the reason because it is not set by default.
[HD2 General] gossipgirluk:
It just changed text to german for me. Couldn't find any LED settings.
[HD2 General] MattRob:
Not only, also for gmail and my work email ...
[HD2 General] s.kralemann:
Uuuups, I am sorry. I have forgotten to remove the German strings from the CAB. I have attached a new CAB to this post. This enables the LEDs notification. I haven't tried this for email on the HD2, but on my Touch Diamond 2 the LED notifications for emails didn't work if I triggered a manual send/receive of emails.
[HD2 General] UncleBeer:
Just bumping this up. The LED notification for new email *doesn't work*, and this seems like a pretty serious flaw on such a slick, expensive gizmo. :mad:
[HD2 General] RikfromBelgium:
ok,

so I got a LEO and I love it. I just installed tomtom 7 and it works, but it can't find any maps. I copied the cab to the root of the sd, it installed and put tomtom in a programsfolder. But the maps, western europe, it's in a folder (A), in that folder is another folder (b) named the same with all the items, next to that second folder is a meta file.

Do I just put the A folder in the root, with in it B and the meta. Or do I put B and meta by their own in the root or do I make a special mapin the root, do I put items in another place ... You get the drift, where the hell do I put the map so that tomtom finds the map.

thx in advance, love the phone btw, kicks iPhone ass

Hello,everyone!I would like to know,is it possible to surf the web using GPS signal as connection?I know that there is a satellite internet.The GPS signal comes to our PPC from satellites,so I think that there is a way to use it to browse.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] BlindMist:
No.

I would suggest to look up how GPS works (You may google it).

Cellphones receive signals from satellites, but they do not send them back. You need both to be able to browse.

Regards,

BlindMist
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Wizard-of-Oz:
And even if the uplink problem is solved somehow, the GPS signal has a data transmission rate of 50 bits per second (bits, not kilobits or megabits). This would be shared by all users, so if 50 people would use this great new service each would get one bit per second :D

(This page would take about 5 days to load :))
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] rocky50:
tnx for the replies!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] adan..89lion:
Although this is an old post but I think it is possible now...

There's a device called goTenna, it costs a lot but it connects to your phone via Bluetooth and it is capable to send text messages through GPS and that is amazing.

I have the same concept of your original one, I think it can be extremely helpful for travellers to connect internet aboard.

Also I think sattlelite phone works the same :good:

[HD2 General] Shasarak:
I think it's worth reading some of the comments made against the "source" of that claim:

http://msmobiles.com/f/viewtopic.php?t=24691
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Unless HTC go out of their minds they surely won't release a WM7 update for HD2 in Q4 2010, as by that time they will have a new flagship device ready for the holiday season.
[HD2 General] CAH000:
I think HTC is faced with the same issue they faced with the launch of the Diamond 2 and Touch pro 2 months prior to the official launch of WM6.5. The HD2 is due to be released in the US and other territories in Q1 2010 at the same time WM7 is due to be officially announced. Faced with the same circumstances they faced with WM6.5 I expect them to act in the same way and provide a update to WM7 as otherwise sales in the markets it is due to be released in in 2010 Q1 would be likely to be severly limited. Any other course does not make much sense.
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
WM7 is going to be announced in Q1, but judging by the information that's been out so far it's still due to be released no earlier than Q3/Q4 2010.
[HD2 General] CAH000:
Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the Diamond 2 and TR2 were announced in May 2008 and WM6.5 appeared in October so I see little diffence here, though the official announcement was necessarily earlier. HTC has announced a future policy of releasing less models and going for more volume, so not offering a WM7 update to US Q1 purchasers would surely severly restrict potential HD2 sale volumes.

It probably makes little difference to us here I guess, as I suspect like me many early adopters would probably be ready for a new phone come this time next year in any event.
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
May through October is 5 months. October through October is 12 months. Don't know about you, but I see one hell of a lot of difference. Also, Diamond 2 and TP2 got their upgrades at a time when they are still the top-of-the-line HTC smaller form factor and QWERTY models (i.e. the upgrade gave them a boost in the middle of their lifecycle). By the time WM7 will come out it will be time for HTC to launch a successor to HD2, so the latter will have to go out of the way. That's another huge difference in my opinion.

I think you overestimate general consumer awareness about what WM versions exist and what the difference is. Android may be well-known because of the media hysteria, but if MS are going to advertise WM7 they have already shown that they now smartly refer to their stuff as "Windows Phone", and that will be the name by which most people will likely know phones like HD2 or HD3.
[HD2 General] Fatherboard:
I burped so hard while I read this.
[HD2 General] Wevenhuis:
I'm not worried about a new flagship device. By the time HTC arrives with it the issues of the HD2 will be solved and be used to your hearts content. Don't forget there is a 1 GHZ processor in the HD2. The good news, and not unexpectedly, HD2 will probably be upgradable to windows mobile 7 is the logical step. The current windows mobile 6.5 has developed itself and feels like the windows vista equivalent. I think it would only be logical to argument, just like windows 7 to consider windows mobile 7 an "update" to windows mobile 6.5 rather than an "upgrade". I think it would do the HD2 justice. One can just feel that the HD2 can do more than what the current OS is portraying. It would be like extending the life of the HD2.

I predict that long before WM 7 is officially released, we will see it on our HD2's.

I don't need to be Nostradamus to know that.

[HD2 General] scrabble8:

[HD2 General] terrytpot:
Great! p1ss on my chips why don't you...
[HD2 General] chainbolt:
The big difference is that W7 is a new OS, while 6.5 was just an update. I don't think WM7 will be officially available for the HD2. In autumn 2010 when WM7 will ship, the HD2 will be outdated anyway, and HTC will do everything to shift customers to their new products that ship with WM7. It will be a major sales argument to go for a new phone next year. HTC would be commercially stupid to offer WM7 free of charge for their "old" phones.

Another self-appointed HTC spokesman. Why don't they simply say "we believe that ...." or "we speculate that ....". Otherwise. completely meaningless.

[HD2 General] Housetek:
today a HTC rep came into my Tmobile store and told me that HD2 WILL be gettin the window 7 update. although he was very hush about releasing any further information, he did go on to say he'd keep in touch with me about the dual booting for androids and windows at the same time.

I asked him if i could quote em on it and he said SURE but im not gona bust his balls if hes wrong, but he seemed very confident and knowledgeable about the new phones and about rooting/hacking.

He also threw in a lil teaser about the desire being released in the US. But he was "not at liberty to say when".

so i got his email and his card so ill see what else i can find out.

[HD2 General] de Wolfe:
Stop blabbering... WM7 will support multi-tasking. Nobody will be forced to apply this upgrade (if there'll be one...).
[HD2 General] XDA mark:
Ok, that is true. But what is wrong about this situation, is that MicroSoft is going to give 99% of all their attention to this new OS, and forget about their old OS. That is what is wrong, and THAT is why I need the new OS.

If they would decide to REALLY keep their focus 50/50, and we would see great support and updates for 6.5.3. and further (Windows Phone Classic, as it is called now) it would be a different situation.

Now most HD2 owners are afraid that their expensive, high specked device will be forgotten. I do think MicroSoft know they have to announce an update for the HD2 (USA version being most important, but that means EU/Asia get it to). If not that device will really be a failure. Who would buy a device with no more future regarding OS?
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
First of all, get through the list of HD2's problems again and you'll see that these are problems for which HTC is to blame (drivers, add-on software etc.). You just can't get an update from Microsoft that'll fix all that, it's not possible.

Second, you can't expect any updates for Microsoft's 6.x series because they didn't sell anything to you.

6.x cannot be "fixed" no matter how much attention MS puts to it because it's not a product problem, it's a business model problem. After all these years, MS came to a conclusion that OEMs cannot be trusted anymore to provide end user experience that would reinforce the Windows brand on smartphones. So from WP7, they are taking over the "responsibility" as they put it. When/if you get a WP7 phone, then your complaint/requests for upgrades will be valid. Right now blaming MS for your phone is about as justified as blaming Adobe for a crappy picture in an ad (well, not quite, but you get the idea).

As a business user, I have seen no reason to want to upgrade to the new OS. Granted what we have seen has been limited, but at this point I would take SPB + WM6.5 over WP7 outright.
[HD2 General] jakem:
Really? The improved calendar looks like a great reason to upgrade and the new email client looks like a huge improvement over what we currently have with 6.5. I'll also be interested to see how the Sharepoint integration works.
[HD2 General] vince2773:
I totally agree.

If I wanted a teenager phone I would have bought one of Steve Job's toys.

For all the stuff I've seen so far, I would not change to WP7 if an official ROM came out.

The guys in Redmond are playing catch-up and need to go where the big bucks are. And that ain't where the business user is. If I were them, I'd probably do the same.

Since I'm not, I'm sticking with what best suits me, don't care if it's new or not.
[HD2 General] adamlovesu:
this is an old leaked announcement that im sure is no longer plausable if you look at all the requirements for winpho 7 series the hd2 doesnt have the ram for it or the REQUIRED button layout and im sure that microsoft wont want a skinnable htc sense handset that even sais with htc sense on the back running the unskinnable winpho 7 series. unless they want to go against their own word. but as of now hd2 wont get 7.

[HD2 General] niknik76:

[HD2 General] nsx_23:
Hmm, I'd want the upgrade so I have the choice of using it or not.

It'd make sense for HTC because it means they can keep selling old hardware as though it was a new product. I doubt many people will buy a WM phone now since they know 7 is arriving, so a promise of an upgrade would be needed to shift phones.
[HD2 General] aceo07:
+1. I thought the point of WM was to get away from iPhone. It seems like it's going to be the next WP iPhone and people are going crazy over it. (I could be wrong, but that's how it looks to me now.)

The next iPhone is probably going to be out in a June... it'll have iTunes app to sync and have awesome media support. Maybe it'll also have amazing facebook and social networking integration.. Just put a WP7 sticker over it. ;) :eek: :p

(I'll definitely try it out if I get the chance, but from my current impressions of it I won't like it.)
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
I follow the official MS windows phone 7 Twitter account and in the space of about an hour they had pimped the OS about 29 times so I posted a scotty reply along the lines of the OS is useless if you can't skin it with UI's like sense. I got a snotty reply back saying 'what, like the sense skin I am using on the HD2 with WP7 at the MWC now ;)'

Which makes me think WP7 will work on the HD2 and sense can work over it (I read somewhere that the sense plug in looks for WP7 as its loading) but I don't think they will offer a free upgrade.
[HD2 General] UncleBeer:
That's an awful big leap of faith based on a semi-anonymous tweet. More likely a fanboi who'll say anything to pimp his latest jones. :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
I've combed through their twitter account (windowsphone? right?) and I don't see anything of the sort -- unless it was a DM, in which case we demand screenshots! :P

However, to all the naysayers, I still keep on coming back to things like the way the possibility is acknowledged in a roundabout fashion. E.g.

There is a big difference between "which" and "whether". Couple this with their earlier tweet directly responding to the HD2 question. It still seems distinctly possible.

Of course, I'm probably just over analyzing a 140 char message ;)
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
why only quote one bit to try and get your point across?

I don't think its a big leap at all, the windows phone twitter account is run by an MS employee isn't it? So I doubt its a fanboy. Also it was reported elsewhere here that when sense boots it has a command to check which version of windows is running. so given that apparently HD2 meets all the hardware requirements for WP7 it can run on it, also becausef the fact sense apparently checks for WP7 on boot and an ms employee tweeted saying they were using a WP7 and sense its a perfectly logical conclusion that HD2 can run WP7 isn't it? And as I said in the bit of my earlier post you failed to quote, whether it gets a free upgrade is another matter. To me it's irrelevant, I can upgrade in november so I either stick with HD2 if I prefer wm6.5 or upgrade to a WP7 device when they are released. I am more interested in a wm6.5.x upgrade before summer.

And please don't roll your eyes at me just because I am expressing an opinion on a public forum unless you can show me why your opinion is more valid than mine.
[HD2 General] mazzarin:

[HD2 General] Tomo1340:

[HD2 General] mazzarin:
Ah, found it. Nothing about WP7 but hey, I'll acknowledge the possibility. Though you gotta wonder why they are using PockeTwit then :)
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:

[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
look for my post, I am sure I specifically mentioned WP7 as my Twitter feed was banged up with their self promotion so I am sure I commented that it won't get sense on it.

I suppose in the context of my post it would intimate that WP7 would work with sense but as a standalone post its meaningless. I am thinking I actually read it earlier in the week now as I have a vague recollection of replying back asking for confirmation in my flued up haze but never got a reply. I am going to retweet and ask them to confirm.
