I don't think I buy that explanation personally.

For one thing, the increments in which it drops seem too even to me; notice that it starts plummetting from exactly 50% and stops at exactly 20%. That seems unlikely.

As you point out, my phone was locked and in my pocket, and I really hope that the phone isn't capable of randomly drawing the kind of charge you're talking about to cause the battery's reported voltage to drop so massively all of a sudden. Especially since I never have GPS on and I had already shut off my Wi-Fi a few minutes before the incident (Wi-Fi usage is represented by the thick red underneath the line on that particular screencap).

Also note that the temperature at the 20% point is shown on that screencap, a very nominal 34.0°C.

So unless there somehow was some sort of massive power surge (which would be a really worrisome potential hardware fault really) caused by turning off the Wi-Fi, locking it, and putting it in my pocket like 5 minutes before this happened, I gotta go with some sort of measurement or reporting bug.

Quick check on GPS

Hi Guys!

Just wanted to confirm something - in Froyo rc5, the GPS feature is still non-functional, right? I see it's still listed as an "Issue", so I assume so, but I wanted to double-check. Certainly, it doesn't seem to be working for me (the little GPS icon comes on, and it looks like it's trying to connect, but it never does...)

Can someone confirm that this is still an open issue, or is it just me?

No biggie, though :-)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Pao_:
GPS works fine over here with rc5.

You just have to disable and re-enable the gps each time you reboot your device.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] floydogi:
Guys, look what happened with my battery. I've installed ProcessManager Lite, and in ignore list ( in System Apps tab ) left default checked apps and add some ( don't remember exactly) that i think not using (sorry for my english). For about 4 hours battery level is lower only with 5-6 %. More of time phone is been idle, but i used a WiFi for about 30 minutes. Now i think to remove from ignore list app by app to see exactly which is eating my energy. But must have more free time to do this.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] goofball2k:
Doesn't work for me either.

It seems that it doesn't work here in Canada. Froyo rc5. I enable/disable/enable/reboot... but it never works. I can switch it on,and I get the little satellite icon flashing away happily, but it never connects (waited a half-hour)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Zacpod:
Wow! Lots of progress! Great work everyone!

It's been a few weeks since I've had any free time - I've been lurking and reading, but haven't had time to reply to anything. This weekend is free though, so I'm starting to play with the openetna builds today - I'm going to investigate the CallerID issue. It seems to me that if we use the Rogers beta 1.6 to pull the proprietary files from (instead of the Korean1.6) we may well end up with working call display (though I'm not sure how much else will break in the process, lol) so that's what I'm going to try this weekend. :)

Oh, and someone asked about me making a root of the current 'official' version of the international firmware... I'd be happy to. Send me the link to the KDZ and I'll see what I can do. :)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vsicarbon:
Did anyone see this?

http://wmdeals.com/

It says you can get the Touch Pro 2 for $50 from t-mobile with a contract. Now just pay the $200 early termination fee and you got yourself a brand spanking new touch pro 2 for $250.

Any comments on this? :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] AxlR:
The promotion shows up from time to time but I heaven't heard who got the new phone for this price.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vsicarbon:
I wonder if you have 2 pay the $35 activation fee and 1st months bill, which the cheapest qualifying (talk + web) is $39.99 and $30 for the web. So if you have to do this its not worth it.

35+40+30+200 = $ 305 + taxes (its 10% where i live, woo chicago)

It'd be easier to just go on craiglist or wait till the 1Q of 2010, rumor has it T-mo USA is getting the leo!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] AxlR:
I bought my Htc on craiglist for 270$ 1 moth old perfect condition, just search and it's passible to get it very cheap.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ariel123:
if you are talking about the 866 telesales number with the promotional code of windows mobile

yes its true i got mines when it was availible for free and i got 2 of them

but its only with new contract or adding a line

i was on vz with the vx6900 and was desperate for the tp2 i switched over the service might not be as great but hey i got me n my wife tp2 for free

and you dont pay anything upfront unless your flexpay anual or whatever the price is right now with the promotional code

the activation fee is waived because of the promotion

your 1st month bill will be the normal price

and web you should already know its a must

and if you they are still promoting this they will credit 60 dollars to your account and free bluetooth head set
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vsicarbon:
Interesting.....So would it be possible for me to cancel before i Pay the 1st months service. therefore getting a TP2 for $250? Do they ship the phone to you or do pick it up at a local store?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vsicarbon:
Yeah about craigslist. In my area no one is selling it under $350 new or used. I found a guy who was selling one with a ding on it for $325. otherwise their all $375+
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mbeardyc:
I got my touch pro 2 from wmdeals.com when they were selling it for $150. I had to get a flexpay account so with the monthly bill at $87 I ended up paying $250 altogether.

I canceled before the buyers remorse period was up and they refunded me the $87 and closed my new t-moblie account but when I tried to return the phone

they wouldn't accept it because they said it was after the buyers remorse period.

So I ended up getting the tp2 for $163 and unlocked it for $13 to use with att.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] shdwphnx:
I have been a T-Mobile customer for many years (contract expired a while ago), on one of their shared minute family plans (2 lines). Best price I could get from the normal T-Mobile channels to upgrade my existing phone (T-Mobile MDA - A.K.A. HTC Wizard) to the Touch Pro 2 was $350, which they were willing to spread out over 4 months ($260 first month), and would have required changing my plan to one of the new Even More plans.

Today, I called T-Mobile Business (the number listed in this deal), and tried to get this deal as an upgrade. They refused. However, they then turned around and said they can give me the Touch Pro II for FREE!!! if I added a 3rd line ($10 a month) and a 2 year contract on the $30 a month data package (total change in my current monthly plan price of $40).

Needless to say, I leapt on the offer. I should be getting my new phone in about two days ($12 to overnite it). Even better, as I was wrapping up the call, the rep told me that if I really only needed 2 lines of service, I could cancel one of my old lines (losing the old number) and not have to pay the $9.99 a month.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] f1ip:
I think if you do a MISDN "mizzdin" reuse, you can keep your old number, canceling the new one.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] GiZZy:
this is EXACTLY what i was looking for doing, im glad i can go ahead and do it now. So when they say a new contract you can simply do a new line? sweet =] I might do this tomorrow, or whenever i get free time from work/school.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] GiZZy:
Hey btw in case you did not know you can also get $100 back if you trade in your old T-Mobile MDA using http://www.htctradein.com/t-mobile/ they started this yesterday!
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
I can't getr iplayer to work. When i go to the bbc mobile version of iplayer via Opera, I get an error saying my phone is not compatible. Do i need to change anything in the registry or opera:config file to pretend its a nother device?
[HD2 General] weepatc:
Change custom user-agent in opera:config to sgh-i900 & save. Exit Opera then go back to BBC iplayer & it should now work.
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
Actually found out HTC_Touch_HD_T8282 works better :)
[HD2 General] Armes:
TBOy, tried that but no luck. Do you have to clear out all the other gubbins in there first?

I changed HD2 to Hd and 8585 to 8282 but left the rest alone....

thanks
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
no clear EVERYTHING and put the above.
[HD2 General] Baccchus:
sorry to ask what is probably a very basic question but where is opera:config? I'm a bit new to all this so an idiots guide would be much appreciated :)
[HD2 General] JamDonot:
I second that, total noob to winmo, haven't a clue either how to do this
[HD2 General] NutsyUK:
i think you type it into the adress bar, same with firefox core settings
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
The current Opera 9.7 version on the HD2 is not detected by the BBC iplayer website. Here is a modifcation to Opera preferences you can do to get it to work.

Launch Opera and type: opera:config in the url bar. No http:// prefix.

Find the User Prefs at the bottom of the list and then scroll down to Custom User-Agent.

Delete all text in the field and enter only HTC_Touch_HD_T8282 into the box and make sure you press Save (all the way down at the bottom of User Prefs).

Exit Opera and restart it.

Now go to http://bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer. Videos are opened in your Streaming App on your phone.
[HD2 General] JamDonot:
Many thanks, and cheers for being patient with the noobs.
[HD2 General] Armes:
+1 on the patience.

Incidentally, I found editing the line doesn't work; you have to do as stated ie delete ALL of it and then re-enter from scratch.

Thanks Again...
[HD2 General] Baccchus:
Hi Tboy, thank you for the reply- I think it's working, can't try yet as I don't have a wireless connection, which leads me to another issue...

The iPlayer claims that you can only stream over 3G on the Vodafone and 3 networks (UK), and that I should stream over wifi. I'm actually with Vodafone so does anyone know why I'm getting this message and can't stream over 3G? Is it anything to do with HSDPA being enabled?

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 General] JamDonot:
I was about to ask this exact same question. Got Iplayer to work great over wifi, so thanks again for the advice, but when trying over Vodafone 3g data connection it is saying I need to be on Vodafone 3G, kinda weird as I am. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this would be a god send for long night shifts.
[HD2 General] adiemask:
+1 It would be nice to get this working
[HD2 General] nick HD2:
Thanks very much too, I am a total noob to this, and iplayer is great.

Also does anyone know how you can get the rest of the copilot UK/Ireland and Euro maps from the DVD onto my HTC Leo? I have managed to get the UK and Ireland maps from the Disc but am struggling to get the euro ones off.

Thanks in advance
[HD2 General] fards:
have you installed copilot central onto your PC ?
[HD2 General] ahaaee:
I'm on 3 UK and it works beautifully!
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
If you're having trouble with iPlayer you could try using the myplayer application. It works best with CorePlayer installed, but you can stream stuff using the Streaming Media Player and play iPlayer downloads using TCPMP.
[HD2 General] jakem:
+1. The quality and speed are both surprisingly good.
[HD2 General] nick HD2:
Co Pilot Live 8

Hi There, Thanks for getting back to me.

I have put the Copilot Central 2.0 on the laptop and even tried loading each map (trance, BeNeLux etc.) individually via DVD on Laptop through usb to HD2. Not really sure what to try next.
[HD2 General] Baccchus:
Hi Shasarak,

Thanks for the information, however, I'm loathed to pay for Coreplayer in order to utilise a free service, if anyone has any idea as to why the iPlayer doesn't recognise that I'm using Vodafone?
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
Well, as I said (though you obviously weren't paying attention) so long as you only want to use myplayer to access iPlayer (and not any of the other services it talks to) you can use Streaming Media Player to play streams, and TCPMP to play downloads. Myplayer is free, Streaming Media Player is already built in, and TCPMP is free.

Of course, if you want to play downloaded videos on your phone then you might want to consider investing in Coreplayer anyway - you'll need something that can handle divx and xvid videos.
[HD2 General] Ninja Jaiden:
Works great on my HD2 just like it did on my old HD, but unfortunately no 3G streaming via T-mobile either. wonder why HTC ommitted this from the HD2 in the first place after making it available for the HD via the ROM update in April.
[HD2 General] Baccchus:
hi again... sorry- I guess from your response you didn't take my post as it was intended. I'm grateful for the information you've given, I was just wondering if it's possible to fix the issue of iplayer not recognising that I'm on vodafone.

I do understand that myplayer is free but I read that coreplayer improved it. sorry if I misinterpreted, sometimes things just don't come across as they're intended in a forum :)
[HD2 General] Baccchus:
Further fro my last post, now that I'm back home, I've set wireless on and tried streaming and again get the same message- that I need to switch to WiFi... am I missing something blatant?
[HD2 General] tboy2000:
My streaming works fine over wif but only for about 5 mins and then it stops but then does not rebuffer. Anyone have same problem?
[HD2 General] SteelyEyed:
Thanks for the UA "hack". The phone is now acceptable to the iPlayer site but no luck actually streaming anything (over wifi or vf hsdpa). The streaming media player launches but never "connects" to the stream or starts downloading. I've coreplayer installed and associated with everything but opera still pops the built in player. Fankly the wifi problem might be LAN related with 3xADSL load balanced connections but if there's something else to investigate would welcome advice.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
Yeah: use myplayer. ;) I'm on O2, and cannot access iPlayer over 3G using Opera. But using myplayer I can.

Using CorePlayer rather than TCPMP and Streaming Media Player does expand myplayer's capabilities, but in ways which are only of major interest if you are NOT accessing iPlayer with it - myplayer also offers access to several other online video services, and you do need CorePlayer for those. Myplayer also (sometimes) offers better quality video than accessing iPlayer Mobile by web browser. The standard resolution of for-mobile videos on iPlayer is 320x180. Myplayer often lets you download them as 480x270 .mov files: the difference in playback quality is quite significant.
[HD2 General] bankian:
I've jumped through the same hoops (including buying coreplayer) and still have the same problems with playing iplayer programmes. I had wondered if I'd done too much fiddling in the registry and caused a problem there, but I've just installed clean with a 1.61 ROM and it's still doing the same thing.

I can happily play iplayer on my laptop so I assume that there's nothing wrong with my wifi per se. I can also happily play youtube through coreplayer.

Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be interesting to know how many have the same problem, since it seems to be working fine for most people.

Thanks
[HD2 General] Roguestar:
I'm having the same problem too; tried Coreplayer and myPlayer, streamingplayer and myplayer, windows media player and myplayer, streamingplayer and Opera with UA changed, all these combinations and I still can't get a stream to open. It says "buffering" and stay at 0%, then the connection times out. I can view iPlayer in HD over wireless on my laptop on the same connection my HD2 is using so there's nothing wrong with the network. :(
[HD2 General] FryWalker:
Have you disabled streaming via UDP in CorePlayer?

The myPlayer support page may be of some help.

-Fry
[HD2 General] bankian:
FryWalker you're a star!

It was the UDP thing - exerpt from the support page :-

CorePlayer displays the loading logo but the content never starts

Ensure that the "Prefer UDP streaming" preference is NOT checked. Select "Menu -> Tools -> Settings/Preferences", then choose "Select Page -> Network". Uncheck / untick the "Prefer UDP streaming" option.

Thanks so much!
[HD2 General] MonkeyFu:

[HD2 General] danpier:
Had the same problem, but after reading a few articles on BBC site, found out that if you change your data connection to contract WAP (my default connection was contract Internet) then iPlayer on VF streams fine through streaming media app.
[HD2 General] matt07930:
Bit of an obvious answer, but just run it in Internet Explorer instead.
[HD2 General] Chastiser:
i now have the bbc iplayer working on my HD2. used the magic code and then switched the connection to contract wap instead of contract internet. now the internal streaming programme starts up as it should.

snag is that this cannot be left this way permanently as otherwise things line e mail do not seem to work.

i had an older version of opera on my omnia and this had within the opera settings menu an option to select contract wap just for opera. does anyone know if this is also true for the HD loaded version of opera? i have looked through the options for opera:config but cannot find such a choice.

I have the same problem too when streaming over wifi (Virgin broadband; Netgear hub). For a half hour program, my HD2 streams for just under 5 minutes then attempts to rebuffer but stays at 0% and then times out. For an hour long program, my HD2 streams for just under 9 minutes then does the same thing when attempting to re-buffer. This occurs on both the streaming media app and myplayer. Strange that nobody else has experienced this problem, could really do with some help in getting this resolved.

[HD2 General] Moandal:
I had this working previously, then I updated to a newer cooked ROM and now I'm getting the same problem as you guys. I wonder if it's the Opera version that's to blame, since the default value for this setting has changed? I've got 9.7 build 35627 - how about you? My default for custom user-agent is "Opera/9.7 (WindowsMobile; PPC; Opera Mobi/35267; U; en; Presto/2.1.1". The Hints and Tips says it should be "HTC_HD2_T8585 Opera/9.7 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)", so something's different.

Can it be made to work on IE mobile?
