My actual error is: No weather data available (with 3G\HSDPA and 2G\WIFI)

I own a Touch HD (Blackstone)

I am using this ROM: Miri WM 6.5 21885 :: MANILA 2.5 :: REV 15.0

My current Radio version is: 1.10.25.25

My current Rilphone version is: 1.14.25.24 BS Rilphone

My provider is: Zain KSA

It is working: sometime only when connected with GPS

I use AGPS: yes

I use GPS often: no

I have tweaked my device: no initially

I have been tampering with AGPS registry: no

Using Goolgemaps I get my position from the cell towers without problems: Yes, but I don't get it so accurate (within 1300m)

I am thinking it is related to......1) Accuracy of Google location service itself as long as it's still a beta service and it's sometimes inaccurate as in my case for example Google maps would show my location within 1300m from a center point in my city if my phone radio is on, while it would show it within 16100 m from a center point in another city if I turn off my radio and use wifi of my DSL router (my DSL ISP server is in another city which is about 600 km from my actual location). BUT, if I use GPS, my Google maps would show my actual location and HTC weather will get my location and update weather for it.

2) The way HTC manila integrates with google location service

N.B: it would be nice for us to test my theory if everyone writes what my location gives on google maps (acurte point vs. within xxxxxx meters from point)

Registry edit WM6.1/6.5 to enable "Restart device?" checkbox on hard power button?

I recently updated from udK Leo R6 to HTC's official WWE 6.5 ROM.

One of the negative changes is the loss of the option checkbox "Restart device?" I used to see when I held down the hard power button.

What's the Registry hack to re-enable that option, or was that truly custom code? I've got QuickReset, but I assume that the fully integrated option in the hard power button software response is cleaner.

Thanks,

Jay
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] GerooTech:
use slide2shutdown, or xdashutdown applications.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] libove:
Still would like the (apparently) more integrated version

Thank you gwassef, Slide2Shutdown does work. It clearly has a more complicated startup, which I assume will get wedged in more places than the integrated shutdown function would. I'd rather tweak the integrated shutdown app which is linked to the hard power button, than rely on a more complicated application replacing the integrated one.

So, I'm still hopeful for recovering the apparently much more integrated functionality which I saw in the standard(?) HTC Hard Power button linked Shutdown prompt in udK's Leo R6... any other ideas, anyone?

Thanks,

Jay

I know Windows Media Player has a Toggle Screen Off option, but it's difficult to assign a button to it when the SIP keeps disappearing when it asks you for the key you want to assign :D

Anyone know how to play music with the screen off?

Thanks :)

Try MortPlayer

Hallo,

Try the MortPlayer http://sto-helit.de/

I use this player since i have a win-mobile-phone. I use it with a bluetooth headset (headphone). The only thing you must do ist installing a little tool to remap the headset-buttons. If you do not, the headset-buttons will start the media-player or use the htc-manila-player.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Drag-On:
yes, you can. at least in MOST ROMs. some chefs didnt get this right (Dutty's older ROMs for example would by default use the Windows Media Player and would have problems with playing music while the screen was off.)

However, i am using Dutty's HG R1 and i can play music (and skip tracks, change volume, etc) while in sleep mode.

i hope that's clear enough?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] arikado:

I'm using Dutty's holy grail r6 rom and everytime i click the power to sleep while music is playing from HTC's music player, it stops.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] jkolner:
I use the same Rom and the HTC player. If i push the start button on top of the phone, the music stops, but if you let the phone go to sleep by it self, then the music continue after the screen is off.

Can't change bluetooth visability off

Every time I turn on bluetooth it comes on in "Always Visable" to other devices. After I change the setting to "Not Visable" and then turn off bluetooth and then back on, it reappears as "Always Visable" again.

Why does this keep happening?

I recently changed my ROM and it has only started this behaviour after the ROM change.

I have looked through the registry settings and can't find anything that would enable this behaviour.

Any ideas?

firmware frustration

HI vma

I must say frankly, you've just expressed the conclusion I have been slowly coming to myself. I have also tried all possible roms and actually never been happy as there's always sth that doesn't work.

Perhaps it's windows mobile. I still hesitate as I'm waiting for a new athena from HTC. But perhaps Iphone is not such a bad idea.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] vma:
Hi,

When I saw a first reply, I though it was to flame me for my unkind word to WM devices...

I have to admit I was a bit pissed. Afterall it took me two days of flashing, backing up, restoring backups, only to realize that the firmware I had (Michy's WM6.1) wasn't that bad.

During all that I thought I had fried my Athena - it stopped responding and it took me hald an hour to realize that the trick is to hold BOTH the camera and the communications buttons, while doing the reset.

I then reinstalled Michy's ROM again and somehow it has a bug, which must be the reason I had problems in the past: it will produce errors syncronizing.

At the end I thought that after so much efforts and me being in bed anyway, I might as well give the official WM6 from T-Mobile a try.

Well, I just finished shaping it to my desires. Took quite some time, but: tilting works, Youtube works (not inside the browser, but still it works), Opera and IE have nice renderings, allowing to zoom in and out (somehow on Michy's ROM the zoomlevel was always to big).

I think the ROM is now pretty OK. If I knew how to cook ROM's, I would cook it exactly like this.

Does this give me inner peace to take back what I said before?

No.

I am totally disappointed by WM6.5. It just sucks and is a waste of space on any screen with more than 320x200 resolution.

It is a waste on resources (our devices have faster and faster processors, yet WM seems to get less and less responsive).

The most important applications are the internet applications: wtf has IE such a big menu bar on top and bottom?

The list goes on and on and I won't even bother.

To all the cooks: I truly respect and appreciate your work. Please don't get annoyed by my postings. It is not your fault that Microsoft has been producing such a bad OS.

To all of you, who did not yet try it: pick an iPhone from someone (not the ones in the shops, specially the ones not connected to the internet) and play with it for 10 minutes... You will understand what I mean:

- you swipe the finger to scroll a page and it like flies under your finger. No resistance or lag whatsoever

- you open a webpage and it loads FAST. You can scroll it, zoom in and out and it just is so responsive

Ok. Enough crying...

Truth is: look at my signature and see that I always liked WinCE devices a lot... Shame the evolution seemed to have gone the wrong way.

Cheers,

vma
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] avengerpenguin:
Maybe I can answer some of your issues with 6.5, the function key, is close to being fixed just needs some work on the keyboard map posted by xtep in the x7510 section.

The icons/menu can be fixed to an extent, not sure how though, it is possible to get smaller icons etc 4 or 5 across but I havent had time to research it fully as yet, also I have used some 6.5 roms for my blackstone that manage to use the old 6.1 menu system.

Now the biggest possibly hardest issue is the speed, I believe that most of the issues come from the fact that we do not have a native 6.5 memory kernel for the athena, which gives an additional 2 32mb memory slots to the OS, I am no expert but I think it is possible to port a memory kernel to the athena but this exceeds my capabilities and I am yet to find someone who can do it.

This would give us the greatest increase in speed etc, whilst my roms are optimized as far as I am capable there is still a long way to go.

However with this said I do agree with you winmo 6.5 is not that fast, not as fast as it should be with a 624mhz processor. When you compare it to something like android or Iphone it really seems to show its age/limitations
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] rpmbnsf:
for me the R0 6.1 ROM has given me the most speed of ANY ROM out yet. It also has no bugs that I can see. Mem after a reset is 70MB and I think this goes a long way to giving the most speed.

I also want to make sure I'm not misunderstood, I think all the cooks on here have done incredible things given the constraints this OS gives them and my hats off to all of you that put so much time into developing new ROMs.

One other issue I think has hampered overall speed and usefullnes is the lack of a good driver for the graphics chip in the athena. I don't think we have ever had full access to it so rendering could be greatly improved thus making the speed that much better.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] sumtingwong:
I'm with you there. I have actually purchased a MacBook Pro to replace my old Toshiba Satellite 5105 s702 recently. Even though I installed XP (dual boot) on the MacBook Pro, I found myself using OS X on it more than XP. I plan to do the same (buy an iPhone) when my Athena dies. Micro$oft has lost control of their hardware vendors who have no interest in long term support/loyalty building and only interested in taking customers' money and run.

our dear athenas

"I am no expert but I think it is possible to port a memory kernel to the athena but this exceeds my capabilities and I am yet to find someone who can do it."

avengerpenguin,

Like sb else has written here, I also don't want to be misundersood as I have a lot of respect for all the cooks here, and especially for you as I have been following your work on win 6.5 ROM. If there were more guys here with so much enthusiasm, perhaps we wouldn't be moaning about windows mobile.

Anyway I still use a cooked rom so even with some minor bugs we can at least partly enjoy our athenas. I guess HTC has just forgotten about probably the most loyal user group - athena owners. I have had mine for almost 3 years and got used to it so much that it's a pain for me to think that there may come the time when I'll have to replace it.
