I want the same here... this happened to me today... I had 4 appointments and could only see 1 :(

it would have been better to have smaller font or something and more appointments.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Jack_Surfer:
Well ... could be nice to set the amount of appointments/ birthdays/ etc.

and their fonts by myself !!!!!!:cool::cool::cool:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] prabhat:
Yes this is a Common feature and this does exists in the Official WWE rom. I do have this.

I can see 3 appointments in my home screen and can minimize the manila clock (slide Up) to see all :) (today and tomorrow also)

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] magnus66:
Yes, in the the homescreen

But not in the lockscreen, as stated above

Hey people, how do i sync my contacts with google on the HTC HD2?

Is this an android only feature and if so what would be my easiest option?
[HD2 General] hawrai68:
Goto settings - data services - activesync...enter your google account info and use m.google.com for connection.

Hi, all, just received my phone today and i am very pleased with it indeed, apart from some really stupid annoying things that HTC should be shot for, but have found fixes for most of them here today.

1: One of them was no notification LED`s on messages ect, i found a cab to fix it, but nowhere in the menu do any options appear?

2: Also on the TABS scroller at the bottom of the HD2 your are given the option to rearange the order, great!, what what about the shotcuts menu with the big icons, do i have to place every programe in the exact order i want it, does not seem to be any option to move it them about.

3: While i am on the subject of icons, is there any way in this world to move the icons on wm 6.5, into your own order without upgrading to 6.51 with the honeycombe option?.

4: I also read somewhere that the data connection does not also disconnet after a email download, there is a reg fix, but is there a cab for this, as i dont like messing with the reg.

Anyway sorry to go on, but after fixing about 5 other things that bugged the daylights out of me, i`m almost close to having the best phone in the world, just a little more tweaking.

Thanks for your help :).

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lox_Dev:
Hi Cookers and Devs,

We face a set of problems with Hero custom roms. The fact is that nobody has been able to port another device's rom, even a cupcake rom. We always face the same main problems: no bluetooth, no trackball, no camera, no accelerometer and, most of the time, no GPS. We all tried lots of cooking (changed many files, libs etc...) with no success.

That is why we thought we were missing kernel sources. Now we have them, we have noticed that the customization of stock android-msm sources by HTC is huge compared to, for example, the small kernel patch for sapphire 32a devices. To port the changes to 2.6.29 kernel sources, we need an expert kernel developer witch our hero dev community lacks. But, the fact that

we face the same problems for porting cupcake and donut roms make me think that the kernel version is NOT the problem.

My thought is that HTC's android customization may be huge too... (android framework may have been modified) But because of android's apache license they don't have to release sources. It is a hard and long work to guess all those changes...

Concerning rom cooking, Sapphire/Dream Cookers faced the same problems porting Hero roms to there devices for a long time. Drizzy has got bluetooth fixed no so long ago.... I am sure they have the knowledge we miss. But we then face an other problem, most of those Cookers think Hero is ****,or don't want to know anything about non google branded devices, or, coming from WinMo world, have lots of difficulties sharing their knowledge...

I suggest that we, all Hero rom cookers and devs, try to port Sapphire AOSP Cupcake to Hero. Why cupcake? Because we can be sure kernel version 2.6.27 is ok with it. I am pretty sure that, once done, we will be able to port other roms.

The progress of that work would go to this thread.

What you (devs and cookers) think ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] adwinp:
The 3.03 ROM I posted once was based on a Sapphire.

The easiest to port is the 32A.

Though a few things weren't working as planned, and the rom was plagued with speed issues, it worked.

(sometimes, it's a matter of coupling the right init from the initrd - kernel part)

The harder part is porting ROMs which are meant to be run on a 2.6.29 kernel.

My guess?

I've taken a look at the 2.6.27/29 diff, and it isn't worth the time, to get a community-driven 2.6.29 tree.

HTC will long before that release the 2.6.29 kernel.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lox_Dev:
Was it cupcake? Did bluetooth, accelerometer, Gps worked? Any link to it?

Well, sure it is harder, but we face about the same as porting ROMs which are meant to be run on a 2.6.27 kernel. That is what makes me think kernel version may not be the solution for most of the problems we face.

Yes it worth the time. Creating a 2.6.29 branch on github easy, applying patch isn't: many rejects. And yes we'll have to wait a long time for HTC to release 2.6.29 Hero kernel sources
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marazi:
regarding that issue, maybe we could setup some kind of donation and give the donation as a "reward" to the "expert" dev who first can provide a working kernel...?

i know its a long shot...

and it all depends on how willing the HERO community is willing to donate...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dying4004:
nice going guys. i was really getting tired to see no remarkable development in hero and was planning to get an additional dream just for playing. and i was really dissappointed seeing hero cookers not giving much **** about roms and releasing nice stuffs.

now i understand what the barricades are. and yeah its true that dream and sapphire cookers really dont give **** about hero. i am creating a theme of my own and wanted to have a transparent top taskbar and top clock color black and i asked several time sin dream and sapphire threads but dint get a SINGLE reply.

however, its really true that HTC wont be giving us 2.6.29 any time soon rather will make it as longer as possible. so it would be best to try ourselves to make it ourselves. and as its really a troublesome work it wud be really great if u guys cud have worked together to get it quickly.

and as we all know none of u live on cooking roms i wud really to contribute in the donation thing as much i can. a $20 donation doesnt really hurt much to get my $700 phone going.

last but not the least... request to other fellow hero users....... please help ourselves by rising a fund of donation for our cookers so that they get enough encouragement for cooking hero roms.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
have you taken into consideration that eclair is about to come? i don't want to take the fun out of it, in fact i think it is a very good idea what lox proposed here. but i myself find myself rather reluctant to try to mod anything except tweaking mcr2.9 a little more... not that i had the capabilities to seriously do some kernel hacking/modding/developing, but at least i was able to compile my own working kernel, so i am not completely clueless.

again, don't want to take the fun out of it, i would just imagine that you have a hard time motivating members to donate 1.5/1.6 improvement, when eclair is just around the edge...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dying4004:
bro dont get me wrong......... but do u really beleive that htc is going to give us eclair in 1-2 months? i mean if they were this kind then why they dint kernel or source code for hero earlier? do u think htc will release better os for a phone which is already 7 months old rather upgrading the new released phones and releasing new handsets? bro those phone companies are here for doing business , not serving customer's after sales needs.

if u still want to wait believing that htc is ur friend then its ur call and best of luck with that. but after buying these costly handsets for last 6-7 years i know it very well that nokia, samsung, htc never going to keep their promises regarding firmwares.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kendong2:
well obviously you have more experience with the smartphone stuff, my (first and) last one (before the hero) died in 2005... but i won't give up the hope ;)

all i am saying is that this should be taken into consideration, before anyone starts a donation run that ends up having collected 160$ and a whole bunch of disappointed members...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dying4004:
bro i completely understand what u wanna say as the money we want to donate has to be earned by hard work by us. but u be sure that it will be at least 4-5 months before u get full eclair for hero. and i recon if our devs work unitedly and gets some expert help from outside then its possible to get 2.6.29 kernel and other things in 1-1.5 month.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] foxmeister:
Given that HTC haven't shipped a Hero with a 2.6.29 kernel, they have no requirement to do so! ;)

HOWEVER......

What about the Tattoo? That's Donut, so it will have a 2.6.29 kernel, and therefore HTC must provide the kernel source. I'll wager there is some significant similarity between the kernel modifications required for Hero and those required for the Tattoo.

Perhaps it is time for us to start badgering HTC for the Tattoo kernel source!

FWIW, I've been trying to build a 2.6.29 kernel using a diff patch for AOSP 2.6.27 vs Hero 2.6.27, but I seem to be thwarted at every turn.

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] nadeemhasnaat:
Ok i am speechless now .... i mean i have to agree with "dying4004"... These companies are really only making money and dont give a rat's ass about customer services and after sales... i mean thats the real logic behind it right... WOW u have opened my eyes dude ....

but BRO i wanted some insight into something that has been induced into our brains for so long... Without customers companies cant make money... i mean any one with a brain would obviously not go for a company that has screwed him over with false promises, right? Yet all the companies ( or should i say SATAN WORSHIPERS :D ) are still in the bidnes and still making money and people ( minions ) are still buying products from these companies...

i did some thinking and i remember i had a HTC diamond and the track pad was a bit faulty so i took it to the Htc service center and they REPLACED the trackpad !!! i mean what atrocity innit... EVIL EVIL EVIL ...

lolz ... dying4004 why are you against these companies and more so why are u hell bent on preaching a March-April release of Eclair for Hero.... i have seen u do that in other threads as well....

If u have had a bad experience with one of these companies, please do share coz i am begining to think that it will make for an interesting listen.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dying4004:
bro i am not against all those companies. i mean then i cant use any mobile phone. i am just practical. just see how the nokia users r complaining about firmwares for their high end phones. how much craving is going within the 5800 users for kinetic scrolling. check how much impatience is going through the samsung omnia i8910 users for a single new rom. see how u guys did for the source code for hero. what i am saying is simple......... it wont be a good idea to stop development of recent hero roms just for the sake of eclair which we dont know when gets release. rest is upto u. i cant force any1 to do anything. this is simply my personal experience with mobile phone manufacturers for last 7-8 years. cheers

Great post Lox_Dev and thank you for bring all the problems to our attention. It is heartbreaking to see such a great little phone be left to stew on the few HTC "released" roms out there.

hey bro.... exactly where did i say that i dont know how to do and stuffs?? at 1sy read then post ur comments......... and in this thread i said i am willing to donate for the work and i asked others to donate as well to contribute in the way we can.

and i have made and posted 1 theme for hero and i have made another theme and i will post it tomorow. so read before u speak.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] foxmeister:
(My emphasis!)

You should follow your own advice! ;)

I asked a question:

And then said:

This is merely pointing out that if your *answer* to my question is "I don't know how to do it", you could always learn!

Nowhere do I say that you "dont know how to do and stuffs??".

And you still haven't answered the question! ;)

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dying4004:
yes i am learning and i am excercising my knowledge in makling theme for the community. at least i am doing what i can. i am even willing to donate for the devs.

and what u r doing? shouting on ppl who can do sumthing and doing nothing urself as u cant even learn and want to use others works.

go learn sumthing, show us and then shout at others.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] foxmeister:
I thought that was what you were doing? ;)

I've never "shouted" at any one, or tried to push any one into doing something that is likely to be a waste of time due to the arrival of an HTC built 2.0 and which I personally *know* is extremely difficult.

How do I know?

Because I've tried it!!!!

Here's what I have done:

1. Built an Ubuntu development environment *expressly* for these purposes.

2. Downloaded the Hero kernel sources and the stock 2.6.27 sources.

3. Diff'd the two trees to see what needs patching

4. Downloaded the 2.6.29 kernel sources

5. Attemped to apply the patch from (3) to 2.6.29

6. Built the kernel

7. Put in on my phone, with the CleanION ROM.

8. Watched in awe as it just hung as the boot splash screen until I pulled the battery out.

Note that even getting the AOSP kernel source from the git repos proved to a hellishly time consuming task because the repos kept timing out and/or refusing connection!

Despite my efforts, I've not turned up *any* tangible results, which is why I've not bothered to mention them here. I'm at the point now where I don't know if I want to commit any further time and effort on what is essentially a fools errand. I'm not saying that my efforts were anything particularly "special", but certainly I can say with absolutely honesty that I've tried!

When Lox_Dev says "To port the changes to 2.6.29 kernel sources, we need an expert kernel developer witch our hero dev community lacks", I know for a fact that this is true, so it is getting quite irritating to keep hearing people who "don't know" telling those of us who "do know" that we should all be getting together to make it work!

So, in absolutely no way am I "shouting on ppl who can do sumthing and doing nothing urself as u cant even learn and want to use others works", because I have already expended far more time and effort than most.

Once again, I suggest that you take your own advice! ;)

regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jnwhiteh:
I'm all for working on porting AOSP Sapphire to the Hero, but some of us need a bit more guidance on getting their development/cooking environment set up. There's a shocking amount of information out there, and it makes breaking into the 'scene' a bit difficult.

Accelerometer should be the focus of our work (in my opinion) since without the keyboard, it's really hard to get some things done in the portrait mode. I'd love to focus on that, since the Google ION Rom with Donut makes me incredibly happy, with that exception.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] E2K:
okay, bros, just to contribute a little bit:

http://www.youtube.com/v/FLRqOuB798A

Seeing that, and imagining it's working 100% and running on our Hero's, really makes me hard.

We will get there. But yes, the path will be difficult. I also want to donate btw.

Anyway, HTC indeed doesn't give a F--- about our android OS. they will release 800*480 handsets in 1-3 months, and maybe won't even port the UI elements to our resolution/hero.

In a way, we are F---ed, we have a very old android handset, with not even half the capabilities of new ones like the droid or upcoming x10 or HTC handsets. And without the knowledge to port all of the new kernels (with parts missing, ie; the hero kernel supposedly had parts missing) they phone might even grow older every month. I a way I should be happy I payed 340 Euro instead of 480 or something..

So yeah, in a way I believe that the handset will be discontinued very shortly. The G1 has the community to back it up, people had it for more than a year and grew attached to it. The Hero does not have that luxury.

So while the hope lies in you, developers; aside from 'homebrew' i'm afraid the future is very bleak. HTC wants your money. They can target little girls tomorrow and kids who just want a 'cool' phone, and we will be left in the cold for children who get a new phone with the contract every year.

So power to the developers!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jnwhiteh:
Lox, have you gotten even a Cupcake AOSP build working with all of the hardware? I looked and I don't think I've seen a stock AOSP build that works. I'm working on getting things built here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=586896 so if you see me doing anything wrong.. or want me to head in another direction, please let me know.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lox_Dev:
Hi,

I have exploded the patch for the kernel. Please for discussing 2.6.29 kernel patch go to that thread

What I want us to achieve in this thread, is to find what makes hardware work in our cupcake roms. The best way to achieve it, is to port cupcake AOSP to our heros. Once we know all files and configuration needed to make all hardware work on other cupcake roms, we can try porting those to Donut or Eclair roms, we will then see what hardware relies on kernel version.

Here is an interresting thread about bluetooth.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] behnaam:
Im in :)

I've gotten accelerometer and camera (partly, only 3mpx and black and white) working on CyanogenMod 4.0.4 crossbread with donut before, sad thing is that I formatted my harddrive because of bad blocks and therefore have no files left from before.

And I can't find Cyanogens 4.0.4 anywhere on the web since it's old. That leaves me asking why it did work on that ROM and not other ones.

Of course HTC is working to get the Eclair out as soon as possible. The Motorola Droid is out with Eclair already. HTC will lose customers to competitors if they dont get 2.0 out very soon.

Satisfied customers is returning customers. Dissatisfied customers go somewhere else. It is as simple as that.

Personally I hope for a birthday present from HTC in form of Eclair. My birthday is November 30th. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jnwhiteh:
Just because they're working on Eclair doesn't mean those changes will apply to the Hero. Sure, they're working on Eclair.. for their new products.. where they can make more money. It's just good business. Eventually, they'll get it to the Hero.. but let's be realistic here..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] raskall:
They have officially promised me Eclair for my Hero. If I dont get Eclair for my Hero, my next phone will not be a HTC.

As simple as that. And I am not sure if HTC want to sacrifice all their Hero customers.
