I can connect the HD2 to my new MINI with bluetooth carkit fine via headset profile.

However, the phonebook does not sync with the car.

Ir worked fine with the HD with the Microsoft bluetooth-stack.

Is there any solution for that?
[HD2 General] nico1885:
With TouchHD i did sync Phonebook to my nissan car without problems (winmobile 6.1)

I think this program will work on HD2 also (winmobile 6.5)

regards nico :)
[HD2 General] bill340:
No, that does not help.

With this app you can only send contacts and so on to another device.

But here, everytime you connect the device via bluetooth with the car, the car should read the contacts from the phone.

That worked without problems with the microsoft-stack.
[HD2 General] jma050:
I am having a similar issue, paired phone with Mercedes HFP and first time contacts came across. Next time back in the car and it reconnects, the contact memory is empty? Can still make and receive calls but no contacts. If I re-pair the phone by resetting HFP in car then contacts come across? Software issue on phone or car kit driver issue? Previously had HTC S710 and had no problems. Very annoying so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
[HD2 General] peter7:
Same here - I even ca`nnot get the car be paired with HD2 - why ?
[HD2 General] catastrat:
Hello,

here is my issue with the BT connection: I have a Pioneer F900BT unit in my car. With my previous Nokia E66 everything worked just fine.

Now, when connecting with HD2, connection works ok, phonebook is downloaded ok, BUT: when there is a call, the music in the car is not silenced automatically; what's worse, it seems the phone doesn't send any call identification to the headunit, since all the history (outgoing, incoming calls) is empty. So, I cannot redial or see who's calling me.

I did try the fix in the registry described on another thread (setting HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\sys\COD=5374476, but it doesn't help.

Any idea?

Thank you.
[HD2 General] dfulgo:
It works perfectly with my Mercedes Command with Bluetooth Adapter, it does not transfer all of my 800 contacts because it use to make a new entry for each tel. number (Home / Works, etc.) therefore it says "memory full" at about 75% but I can understand. At least I can call/recognize up to the "S" beginning contacts.

Anyhow, since I used to have this problem in the past, you could try Jetware, it worked for me with my Cruise.

:cool:
[HD2 General] bill340:
Jetware unfortunatly does not work with the widcomm-stack used in the HD2. :(
[HD2 General] jma050:
To follow up, I have found that its the pin lock (mentioned in another thread) that is causing the problem. If you unlock your phone before you pair up then contacts are coming across every time. May not work for everyone if their problem is different but has for me so wanted to share. If anyone knows how to bypass security issue with paired device I would like to know but as a workaround its better than no contacts!
[HD2 General] kensong:
I have this problem with my BMW iDrive too. No problems getting the address data on the HD but not working for me on the HD2. Can pair and make calls though. Any solution?
[HD2 General] aszotten:
phonebook does not sync

I have a BMW with the bluetooth feature. From what I have noticed there is a connection started to the phonebook and it starts sending (and receving some) information but after about 110k it stoppes and the phonebook is disconnected. I would be happy to assist in any further analysis if anybody has any ideas.

I have no problem making and receiving calls in through this setup, but, as stated, the connection to the phonebook is not possbile. This was previously possible throgh the HD

//Awi
[HD2 General] jma050:
read my previous reply, its because your phone is locked whn it connects. If you unlock it before you pair up it should work.
[HD2 General] aszotten:
OK. I tried to just unlock it, but this did not work. I will try to unpair, then unlock and then pair again, and see if this then works.

//Awi
[HD2 General] aszotten:
Did not work ...

Well, unfortunately it did not work. I unpaired the phone from the carkit, then removed the pin on the phone, did a soft reset, paired the phone with the carkit and saw that it started communicating with the phone book, but the communication stopped after about 110kb, as it usually does, and the phonebook was then disconnected.

Any ideas anyone?

//Awi
[HD2 General] Ellork:
Same issue

I'm facing the same issue... New Mercedes, phone calls are no problem but phonebook is not accessible... I doubt that it's a lock issue... When I paired it it also didn't work but there it was certainly unlocked...

[Hero, G2 Touch General] samwood09:
how long does it take to update Sence UI for Android 2.0

urgh im dying to get the update 1.5 is so buggy with stuff
[Hero, G2 Touch General] jporch316:
they have to release it for their other handsets as well - tattoo etc - they may also be working on a way to get 2.0 on the magic as well. It all takes time!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Stafflover:
1.5 isnt that bad, I don't see the update coming this year (but still hoping for it)

Patience is a virtue or something like that
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Volker1:
I bet that the first 2.0 release will have way more bugs than the current 1.5 (2.73.405.66) version :D
[Hero, G2 Touch General] revolutionx:
Hope not...

We hope not...

I personally hope we wunt have to rely on Custom Roms to make it faster.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] John Player:
I'm delighted with 1.5 on sense UI as it is, still think its better over stock 2, but I do like pretty things, don't mind waiting a bit longer, maybe they will release it Christmas day:)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Farfooz:
with the leaked 2.1 update to some of the devs, it just got more intense like.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] foxmeister:
Personally I think that the existence of a leaked "official HTC" 2.1 build for Hero is very encouraging. I'm sure we'll find out more about it over the next few days as those devs who have the build play around with it, but it shows that HTC are definitely working on it and that a release probably isn't too far away.

That being said, I'm personally still happy with the Hero's "sensified" Cupcake build anyway!

Regards,

Dave

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rahlquist:
On my Tilt there were two volume tabs, is there a way to show the System and Ringer tabs on a Tilt 2?

EDIT: Found it

HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\SimpleMode

Set that to zero and bingo both tabs.
[G1 General] Boonyard:
Ok all, I have a 32b magic, rooted and with Cyanogen running and I love it. it's all set up how I like it, wouldn't change a thing.

But...!

I have an upgrade coming up and I think I can get the Hero.

I've run a Hero rom before and wasn't all that fussed with the features such as the mail, message and contact widgets so the question is...

Is it worth upgrading?

what would you guys do?
[G1 General] veda_sticks:
the hero has the advantage of having more ram, thats the only difference in hardware i have found. everything else is the same, except no hardware keyboard.

It still suffers from the poor mem managment the g1 suffers. once you start opening programs, they stay iopen until it needs to free up the ram. this lags the phone and theres not really any inteligence in shutting programs down.

I love the hero rom, though it can be sluggish at times.

however there are sense hybrid roms which are realy good and run pretty quick. though i think they run android 1.5
[G1 General] Boonyard:
Thanks mate.:)

Its just strange because I love my phone, especially how personlised it now is. Just not sure how much better the Hero upgrade would be.
[G1 General] G1-evolve:
get a mytouch :d
[G1 General] coolbho3000:
Wait for better hardware before upgrade. :)
[G1 General] Boonyard:
I have a mytouch already!:)

Hmmm... but I might not be able to then, when is there better stuff coming then?
[G1 General] :
It's just an upgrade from 192mb ram to 288mb, that's the only advantage. The Hero's a first gen device, I'd wait for other phones to be released without the sh*tty qualcomm chipset.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nickmgray:
ok, so we have the Hero here in the U.S. but I'm sure wewould all love to see the original GSM Hero as well. A new job listing from T-Mobile indicates that it could happen. The title is a bit vague and refers to "Hero Handsets" but the location for the job is in Bellvue Washington which is where HTC has their U.S. HQ. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] pkchips:
Hello guys,

I've had this problem ever since I bought my Diamond last year where every now and then, the touchscreen suddenly becomes misaligned and the phone becomes unusable. Until now, I could always just apply pressure to the screen by rubbing it against my shirt and it got better within 1 or 2 minutes.

However, over the past few days, it's just suddenly gotten a lot worse. The phone's touchscreen suddenly stops responding for a long time, perhaps about an hour (i didnt time it but its bad) and this is a serious problem.

My phone is slightly past warranty and so I don't think HTC will repair it for free. Of course, I'm really regretting not having it repaired during warranty because now they are saying it will cost roughly £90 to get repaired.

My question is, are there any alternative routes I can take to get my phone working properly again? And, if I send my phone to HTC and they send it back unfixed, will they charge me another £90 if I send it back? (the person on the phone was useless at explaining). Also, does HTC still even manufacture Diamonds?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
26th July: Finally fixed the download links, they're now on MediaFire. Sorry guys.

There is already a Windows 7 startup animation (by remyc), but it has horrible dithering :D.

So I made a new one and a Vista Pearl animation, which was displayed in Windows Vista before the login screen appeared. All credits for the woderful graphics and creativity go to Microsoft, I only extracted them from OS resources and converted them to GIFs.

Download animations for all resolutions and boot sound herehttp://www.mediafire.com/?y5uina51375pvhttp://www.mediafire.com/?y5uina51375pv

Note that the CABs contain a welcomehead, the still image displayed after the animation, made of the last frame, providing a seamless startup experience :D.

You are not allowed to modify any graphics or other resources that come with this, nor are you allowed to distribute (upload) it anywhere else. Instead, always link to this thread. If you want to cook this into your ROM, you have to ask for explicit permission by posting in this thread and providing a link to your ROM. Thanks.

Did you see an animation on startup before? If not, your ROM doesn't have the HTCAnimation.dll cooked in. Then, it won't work :(.
[Windows Mobile Themes] steff195:
I saw you need some feedback in here, so...

When I installed it nothing chanced so I had to unpack the cab and rename the gif file and then put it directly to /Windows, because on my Omnia (WQVGA) the startup file animation is Ani_poweron.gif. But the gif file is great, thanks! So, if you want to, you could make a new cab for WQVGA.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Over 500 donwloads and almost no feedback... :(

This way, I won't be able to fix or improve anything, so please post some comments :o.

Do you know which key in the registry is responsible for that animation? If you could find out (by searching the registry for "Ani_poweron.gif"), I'd be able to make the CAB work for more people.

If not, I'll upload the GIFs seperately. Thanks for you feedback!

[Windows Mobile Themes] XDAPPCgeeks:
works on stock htc rom, but not on a custom rom. However, the windows mobile 6.1 splash screen shows up right after, so it's kind of clashing. Goes from "Starting windows" to "windows mobile 6.1." Anyway to remove that and just show the custom one. Also, is it possible to get it working on a custom ROM?

edit: btw, the animation shows up when shutting down on the custom rom...

thanks Livven! :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Will do it.

Yes, that's the still image displayed after the animation, but I need to know the nameof the GIF file ;).

Done, check post #1.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but there is no animation in the omnia welcome. We only have an png image.

The Windows 7 animation was a little choppy on my Titan, but the Vista Pearl looks great. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
It's already there :p. Follow the link and choose the WQVGA one.

I'll make additional versions which fade away into a black background, allowing you to use any welcomehead without clashing.

It seems that some non-HTC devices have the HTCAnimation :).

Yeah, I think I figured out the reason for this. Will rework it.

thanks in advance :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
HTC phones are often rebranded, so your XDA actually is a HTC. So, try and install the "BootPackage_v1.2_nonHTCbeta.cab" from this thread first. Please let me know if it works.

Thanks, and could you please search with a registry editor where these values are stored? I'd appreciate it :).

Go to your \Windows\ directory and delete the "BootUpHTC.wav". For others, I now added the option to uninstall the boot sound, thanks to your feedback.

How i can cook this in my rom?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Hmm, is there a key HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation? If yes, what value is in StartupGif?

Actually, I didn't even try the soud myself, I just took it from the mentioned post :D. But didn't you make a sound yourself for one of your ROMs?

I'm not a cook (though I'm in the process of learning), but I think you'll need the HTCAnimation package and the appropriate GIF, which you name as animated.gif, and it should be in the \Windows\ folder after flashing (don't know to do that).
[Windows Mobile Themes] janneman22:
Wouldn't install at my Topaz:(.
[Windows Mobile Themes] PollPixx:
Looks great on my X1. Just install the cabs, soft reset and you see it. It changed the welcomehead192 file on your phone indeed. No idea if it should move because it is a .gif file, on your X1 it is just a standing still picture.

I also installed the sound cab, but while starting up I hear nothing, or is that not where for the sound cab is?

But it really looks good and that's the point! Thank you for sharing!:)

Cheers,

Arnold
[Windows Mobile Themes] PrinterElf:
Same problem here - all I see is the final frame of the GIF, so it's installed, just not animating for some reason...
[Windows Mobile Themes] janneman22:
Installed HTC animation?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Livven:
Why exactly? If it simply says "Installation not successful", it could be because there isn't enough storage memory. Or does it install but fails to show the animation?

As janneman22 said, if you didn't see a startup animation before it means your ROM does not have HTCAnimation cooked in, so it won't work. Perhaps there is a CAB for it, I don't know.
[Windows Mobile Themes] PollPixx:
No I did not, there is a cabfile around here for that which I can safely use without any chance of problems with my current settings???

If so.....teach me :)

can you help me?

If you are more comfortable with German, you can leave a comment on pocketpc.ch.

Anyway, I reuploaded all CABs and updated the HTCAnimation. Hope the other versions are fixed now.

That's because HTCAnimation does not work for your Acer, but only for HTC devices :(. And the experimental CAB sets some registry keys incorrectly for (W)QVGA devices. In the key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen there are two values with \Windows\welcomehead.192.png, just change the number to \Windows\welcomehead.96.png. Or use Advanced Config.

The original animation has 105 frames, but they weren't loaded fast enough for me which resulted in quite extreme chopiness, so I removed every third frame. Now it's loaded fast enough but the animation itself is a bit chopy... In other words: Does the preview look smooth for you?

I tried, but now I can't get the HTCAnimation to work... could anyone please upload the old "Experimental" CAB? Perhaps this will solve the problems you all were experiencing.

what file does your cab replace? because that did make a standstill image appear somehow.

also, yes I did select "show system files" etc
