I have set up my own personal email account in the HD2 - not outlook, just a standard personal email.

Configured all well and good; works fine except for the very poor implementation by HTC which gives the user absolutely no audio / visual conformation that your messages have actually been sent successfully....?!

However, I have it set to retrieve new emails from my server every 15 minutes, but it does this so erratically that I can't trust it. Today I was wondering why no email had come through by 1pm, so I manually pressed 'send and receive' and 8 important emails came through from 8.40am!

So I decided to check the mail settings (again) to make sure it wasn't just me being dense. That's when I discovered an even more annoying bug -

Every time I access my POP3 email account's settings the HTC automatically changes my incoming mail account user name from whatever I saved last time, to just the first 3 letters of the user name.

ie I put in a user name of HTC@myhtchasamindofitsown.com and the next time I view the settings there's only HTC in the username box.

It gets worse still, everytime I also check the outgoing server details, at the same time it also defaults the 'outgoing (SMTP) mail server' to 'use the same username and password for sending email' IN-SPITE of the fact that I have now set this up 15 times and saved it with a different user name and password!! AGHHH!

So, it's very unreliable in retrieving emails (over wifi or 3G or GPRS) and the email account settings need re-setting up every time I access the account settings to check why they are not working...again.

I am very quickly losing faith in this bit of tech, this is my second HD2 handset and it's freezing and crashing more in a few days that my old 3G did in a year. So frustrating!

Does anyone have any idea what's up with the email issue?

Cheers.
[HD2 General] ianjd:
Yep, I've seen the first problem you have, where part of the username (more specifically, everything from the ampersand onwards) are truncated. This, and presumably the other problems, seem to be down to the HTC email configuration program trying to be too clever. If you go to Pocket Outlook, by tapping on Inbox when you're on the email Sense tab, then go to Menu -> Tools -> Options, and set your accounts up there, they stick. Annoying bug, but circumventable reasonably painlessly.
[HD2 General] KaNarlist:
I have no Tools in Menu of the Inbox

I only got the account setup when in the sense tab and there i only get to the htc account settings. So how to I get to the outlook settings?
[HD2 General] zoomee:
I also had this problem with it not automatically syncing my hotmail account as specified.

The newer 148 ROM seems to address this BUT introduces a number of irratating bugs along with it - depends if you can live with them or not....

Hello I recently replaced the screen on my Tilt.

Now when I wake the phone up none of the buttons work (including keyboard) except for the center button which activates start menu and then start menu button which activates quickmenue (my start menu app).

This the funny part. If hit either the Start Menu button or the OK Button across from it then all my button work normally until the phone goes back to sleep then is woken by either pressing the power button or getting a call.

any ideas?

Hi I have a jasjam with WM 5

I am trying to use a 3rd party email software, I have tried FlexMail & Qmail both with the same problem.

I can receive email once the jasjam does not go into the sleep mode.

For testing purposes i set my email account to check for new email ever 2 mins. If the phone is not in sleep mode the email account will check for new mail and work fine. Once the phone goes into sleep mode I does not receive emails until I wake the phone back up I still can see that I am connected to the GPRS but no mail. The email software will check for new mail and receive them no problem.

If I use the default messaging software that came with the device it would receive the emails fine when the phone is in sleep mode.

I am trying a 3rd party software because the default messaging software only allows you to have 5 pop email accounts and I do not see a option to leave email on the server.

Any help will be great.

I have check the these forums and found plenty good fixes but I have not seen anything about this, I hope I did not over look it.

Thanks

thanks for the reply but the GPRS is not disabled when it goes in sleep mode because the default messaging software receives the email when in the sleep mode.Also when I turn on the phone from sleep mode I do not see the GPRS reconnectiong.

start - settings - menu - more - clock and alarms - more tab - click clock in all programs in the taskbar. Dunno
[HD2 General] ianjd:
Go to the Settings Sense tab, tap Menu -> All settings; tap Clock & Alarms, tick the "Display the clock..." checkbox, and OK. It won't work if you've got something like the 1% battery taskbar hack set up, though.

Hello, its been a while since i've visited these boards as I've been happily working with my Orbit2 now for about a year, without issue...

Until today!

My situation is this; for the first time I felt I needed a 'lock' on my device as I am due to start training with the army on Monday. So I found the 'Lock' application that came with the device, windows mobile standard I assume, entered a password 'test' just to try it out...only to find on the password input screen there are only numbers available so i am unable to enter my password. I can't believe it allowed me to use a password I was unable to enter :eek:

This is a hugely serious issue for me. I need use of my phone and information stored in it during the next few days as i pack and prepare to go.

Is there anyway to bring up a letter input screen on the lock?

Does anyone please have any ideas how I can fix this ridiculous problem!?

PLEASE HELP! :o:confused:

If you don't use MMS you can use these GPRS Settings.

Then you get email.

guys

total newbie question, sorry! :confused:

im looking to buy the hero shortly; im currently on a WM diamond.

i want to use the co-pilot on the hero as i brought a license earlier this year, on the website it says you can just put the same serial code in again, easy.

it says you have to download it from the "market" 1st, now at this point i get confused. is that a free download from the market place? because everything ive read about "market" says if it has a cost; you must pay before you download so then i'll have two serial codes

hope thats makes sense! ive tried alk but its like pulling teeth!

thanks

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Alibaba0101:
Hi folks,

I'm looking to see how i can purchase maps for tomtom for my fuze legally. I've downloaded the free city maps, but I want the whole map of the US/Canada and western Europe.

After installing TomTom Home, it does not show any maps available for purchase for my device.

If I go to their web site, it shows that the european maps are the only ones available for raphael. I even looked at purchasing the maps for other htc phones, but no us/canada maps were listed.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

thx.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Moaske:
It should be right here: http://www.tomtom.com/products/maps/select.php?D=191&SD=142 took me hardly 1 minute....and i'm located in europe watching the site in my own language (meaning US not showing up is even more likely)... Did u smoke 'n surf? ;) :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] HueMann:
Be nice ;) Alibaba0101 was searching for "Fuze".....
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] moderateinny:
The map is highlighted in green, but if you use the drop down list there are no maps for the US and Canada actually available. According to TomTom, there will be no maps made available for WinMo beyond version TT6 PDA. So maybe that is why I cannot see them up there either.

It seems like Garmin, TomTom and even Navigon have all set their sites/focus on iPhone apps and WinMo is getting left behind.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] st3v3:
Can you blame them with Winmo's track history on pirated apps, it seems they have left it unwatched for so long developers dont have any love for winmo anymore!

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Alibaba0101:
It shouldn't be easier to use this stuff illegally than to actually purchase it. :confused: So i can download it from half a dozen warez sites, but if I actually want to use it legally, the option is not available.

i ended up getting a vodafone prepaid card when in the UK and just used google mobile maps instead. That way i didn't have to pay the $20/meg that AT&T wanted to charge me and still was legal.

Took quite a bit to get it to work, but once working i was able to use it for internet access and gps while i was in the UK.

Not bad. 50pence per day for internet usage of up to 25megs. And the fuze works on the vodafone 3g band. Compared to paying the hotel 15pounds for 1 hour of internet usage.

You can have weather animation on the homescreen in Dutys Holy Grail Sense 2.1 if you set the "Default wallpaper" from settings tab.

Ive been here before but I do not quite understand what to do with the program.

Do I only need to install HDwall to my phone and then select wallpaper with it or how do you do that?

Thanks.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Mopral:
HDwall allow you to make .cab file that have manila files corresponding to TF3D wallpaper

1-Use HDwall to make your cab file with the wallpaper you want to have for all tabs or just for home tabs

2-Put the cab file in a folder on your SDcard

3-install HDwallS on your phone

4-on first run of HDwallS, set it to the folder where your cab is

5-In HDwalls, select your cab and choose "set wallpaper"

6-If your wallpaper does not appear on TF3D restart the phone or just restart TF3D

It replace the default wallpaper so you will have the weather animation with your wallpaper

PS:when you make your cab with HDwall, be sure it is set to the right profile for the TF3D you use: 2.0, 2.1, 2.5, all tabs, home tab only, Compression, no compression, ...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Sopis:
You made my day nicer :)

Thank you very much!!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Sopis:
OK

So I tried the HDWall app and I don't think I am dumb but I can't get it working.

I don't understand the process..

What I did..

I set up a profile (but I am not sure if I chose the correct one - I have Duttys HG 2.1 R0 and there was something different...so I am not quite sure what to choose)

Then I loaded a wallpaper , applied it saved it...

Then I opened CAB creator I added the wallpaper I saved and the task+soft bar...then I clicked include Portrait wallpaper, clicked convert...after a while cliked create cab and opened on phone...

there was only the deafult wallpaper (thegradient one...) without the Weather Animation...so I sofreset and the wallpaper was completely white...and sucky :D

What do I do wrong?

Thanks.

Hi all..

I have found and read the instructions as it relates to flashign a phone to cricket... I am an old GSM guy here, not too familiar with CDMA things... But Cricket is runnign a special this weekend where it is only $25 a month for unlimited talk & txt.. I think this would be great for my son as a cheap cell phone.. Here are my questions:

Would Cricket need to know that I flashed a phone from another carrier?

Do I need ot buy one of their phones in the first place?

Anyone who has done this in the past, I would value your input.... I am just a little lost here on this.. thanks
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
In CDMA technologies, the user account gets compared to the ESN of the phone that you are trying to use. Lets say that you programmed your phone (MIN, MDN, flashed PRL, etc). The tower will see all the settings from your account and it will look at the ESN as well, if all this information matches to what they have on the records, you will have no problem in using this phone with Cricket.

Why am I saying this? Because, you will have to let them know about the ESN of your new device. They need to add it to their database and under your account as well for you to be able to use it. I know that MetroPCS charges you ~$50 to do this, I am not certain about Cricket though. You may want to call them up and ask if you can have your Vogue flashed over to their system. I have read countless threads of people having flashed their Vogues to Cricket, so I guess it is possible.

Good luck!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Teej53214:
Thanks for the reply...

Here is the issue (or question).. I live in a new "triband only" cricket market (Chicago/Milwaukee area).. I have read that, to work, the phone needs to use the 1700AWS frequency... I know in the "old" cricket areas you don;t need this... Will the Vogue work here? Sorry for all the questions.. I just don;t want to buy the phone and then not be able to use it...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:
According to the specs, the Vogue is only dual band (800 and 1900 MHz). You can see them here. If that is the case, then you might not be able to use it. Just check with them to be on the safe side. You can also look for people on the Cricket network on other forums and see if someone is using this device in the Chicago area. Good luck!
