What SPL do you have? You need HardSPL, Engeneering or 1.33.2005 (AKA Danger, Haykuro, Special, whatever). Boot in to the SPL to check (camera + power).

Its good stuff man,i like it,like it a lot:)

Nice Work

Interesting theme, I quite like it. Only thing is that the buttons are quite niggly to press. You have to actually click on the words which are quite small. If only the area around the words could be pressed it would make increasing volume etc easier.

I've searched and searched and haven't come up with a definite answer.

Can the HTC Widgets be used on Cyanogen, or any non-Hero ROM?
[G1 Apps and Games] goldenarmZ:
No.

Definite enough? :p
[G1 Apps and Games] faithnolonger:
No, short answer, the hero widgets were built for rosie/sense whatever you want to call it, basically it's another home replacement app. Widgets are not compatible with standard launcher.
[G1 Apps and Games] M..N:
Like above the answer is no. Although there are a few widgets on the market that look like the htc wigdets.

Beautiful Widgets-Digital Clock Widget

Contact Bar- People bar

Pure Grid Calender- Calender Widget

Pure Messenger Widget- Email/Message Widget

Damn, all I really wanted was the peep twitter widget, but I'll live I guess haha
[G1 Apps and Games] Carloswithac:
Use Twidgit Lite!
[G1 Apps and Games] Icebergxx:
I've always wondered since a Home Replacement is basically a stand alone app, and widgets on the standard sdk can't be animated like the hero's in most cases.

Couldn't we just make a HR that runs applications as widgets type of thing.

Like if anyones run a pulse rom and used taskiller you'll see it's cards widgets or whatever it's called running and working with sense UI styles.
[G1 Apps and Games] phuKKah:
I don't see why we can't just run touchflo on cyanogen... most Hero ROMs are based on 1.5 right now, so... hmmm

[G1 Apps and Games] Carloswithac:
Search for Contact Sidebar.
[G1 Apps and Games] Talderon:
Thanks! Found it! However, with the limitations it imposes (not able to scroll and have more than 4 contacts) I think I will pass on this one, for now. Dev states they are working on a solution for that, once found, it would be worth the purchase for me.

I have purchased many apps, especially the Pure apps (Calendar widget, Grid calendar widget and Messenger widget) that help make the phone look/perform nicely.

Keep up the great work Dev's! :D

[General Questions and Answers] AyKuT:
Hi,

This would be my first question and I hope I can make it as clear as I can.

Assume that you created 2 emails accounts in your PDA:

1. a@domain.dom

2. b@domain.com

My first question is that I would like these accounts to use a common Inbox, Sent Items and Deleted Items as in MS Outlook.

My second question is that I would like to synchronize these common folders (Inbox, Sent Items and Deleted Items) with Outlook. For instance, if I sent an email through my PDA using 3G, I would like to have it synched to my Outlook. (I am using POP3 email, don't keep any emails in server and delete after downloading email)

Is there any software which fits into my needs?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1Dreamer:
Hello, I followed this guide: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Removing_Apps2SD

It says:" Then proceed to the ADB instructions from after 'adb shell' " so I jumped those steps:

adb remount
adb shell

Why are they shown anyway if you have to jump them?

Then

rm /data/dalvik-cache

did not work so i used

rm -r /data/dalvik-cache

instead but it also did not work because the dir was busy. Any ideas?

Thank you very much.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
Wait, what are you trying to do, remove the apps2sd function? If so backup the contents of your card, format it and copy the contents back. You'll be without an ext partition so the phone will have to install apps to the nand.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1Dreamer:
Yes, thanks. But Apps2SDCard will be reinstalled of course.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B-man007:

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Housemasta:
Today I tried to update my rom from Aurora (build august 6) to the new 28005 build Nov 27. The reason I was updating was I had the issue where the SMS always read 1 new, when my inbox was empty. I figured I would update my radio and my rom

my old radio version was 1.14.25.05

the one i updated to was 1.14.25.35

it ran fine and then i tried flashing the new rom, and now it wont boot past the AT&T loading screen. I can get it into boot mode, and tried reflashing but still cant. I decided to do this on my new laptop with windows vista with the new sync center. I am looking through forums to help and have no idea. Did I need framework 3.5? Can I not flash a rom ontop of a rom? should i not have updated the radio? please help!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Housemasta:
fixed the problem, had to restore the original flash rom
[Touch HD General] heinerxxl:
:mad: I'm very disappointed about HTC Germany.

Over sudden, my touch screen no longer responded. Device is still under warranty, but HTC refused to repair it w/o charge. They want Euro 178.00 which is unacceptable. I have paid Euro 600.00 for this great device and cannot afford to pay extra 178.

They diagnosed a "Newton Ring" :confused:(shadow on the screen).

I have sent them a complaint, but they insist on not repairing it under warranty.

Does anybody have experienced such behavior of HTC before or had a similar problem (Newton Ring) and got it solved under warranty?
[Touch HD General] flocoe:
hi,

i have the same problem. yesterday i got a letter with the invoice (178,-€)!

i dont know what to do!

i m very disapointed.

[Touch HD General] heinerxxl:
I gave up

:rolleyes: I finaly gave up and paid. Better than having a piece of junk.

I immediately flashed it with Dutty 6.5 Muchos and I'm now very happy with the performance:

No more freezes, Battery lasts much longer now.

After I have protested, they stated that they will re-consider and provide me with an answer the next few days. One week later I received a letter explaining that this damage was caused by too much pressure on the screen.

I was always carrying it in by back pocket. I sure will change my behavior now.

But like I mentioned before, I'm very impressed by the new ROM - much better than the original shipped ROM.

:D
[Touch HD General] David Balfour:
what is the newton ring. I have a small water type mark that comes up now and again if the weather is really hot.

[Touch HD General] heinerxxl:
Newton Ring

As per wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_rings

Its very technical, however in my case it was a damage below the top layer of the screen. I could not use the touch screen at all. There might be some minor damages of that nature that still give you a chance to get a feed back from your device. - I couldn't. It was a total damage. They had to remove the top layer and re-install a new one.

2.5cm x 7.5cm

[Touch HD General] franky_phox:
I've had this issue too. I've let the repair center (Arvato Services in Germany) send the unrepaired device back to me and repaired it myself after getting the digitizer on eBay. Unfortunately the display broke when I tried to remove it from the front cover (to attach the new digitizer), so I had to get another display on eBay too. :mad:
[Touch HD General] Harmageddon:
hmm to bad :(

But it looks like HTC is going to repair my blackstone under warranty :)

Got an email back from them this afternoon. I'm going to call them tomorrow.

I'll keep it updated!
[Touch HD General] r8zer:
if they dont do it under warrenty y not just replace the screen and digitizer yourself.
[Touch HD General] Harmageddon:
Now the're still repairing under warranty... read my posts....
[Touch HD General] Harmageddon:
I've had contact with HTC customer support today, the're going to pickup my blackstone tomorrow and repair it. As long at is isn't heavily scratched (it isn't) it's going to be repaired under warranty :)
[Touch HD General] xaccers:
I had it with my first blackstone, and HTC said it wasn't covered by warranty claiming I had used too much pressure on the screen, offering to charge me an extautionate amount to repair it.

I looked online an it appears to be common amongst HTC phones, possibly due to it over heating by being used when charging (ie using Tom Tom in the car) causing the screen to warp.

Some people have had it replaced under warranty in other countries, but HTC in the UK were adamant that it was my fault.

I've used PDAs for the past 7 years, so I know how to be careful with them. I never put things in my back pocket anyway, only in my front pocket, display against my leg, taking it out if I sit down and never putting anything else in the same pocket. I never dropped it, used my fingers rather than the stylus (as I've had the stylus scratch the screens on my previous PDAs after years of use) so nothing hard against the screen.

The only thing I have done is use Tom Tom in the car while charging in the blackstone specific cradle, which makes the phone get rather warm.

The Newton ring only showed up under fluorescent light.

HTC service desk were less than useful, they didn't bother to contact me to say they wanted to charge me, and their use of english on the phone was very poor.

I'd got the phone through the Carphone Warehouse, so took it back to them to see if they'd repair it under warranty. The phone was also having radio problems, I could be 300 yards line of sight from a network mast and not be able to make a call even though several bars were showing. It would flip between gprs and edge, HDSPA would normally be fine, but in places where other phones had full bars, mine would often have none.

They sent it to HTC who returned it saying "No fault found"

Absolutely useless.

Thankfully I had insurance so claimed on that (£30 being a heck of a lot more reasonable than £176) and got a new phone the next day.

If I hadn't had insurance, I'd have taken HTC to trading standards.

Great product, terrible company.
[Touch HD General] Harmageddon:
Yesterday i've got my blackstone back from repaire service. It's repaired under warranty, and i've got a new screen for de second time.

I've order a case to put my blackstone in to protect it... let's hope that will keep the newtonrings away!
[Touch HD General] Georgeous2008:
Very easy, in Europe due to a directive which has been transposed into national laws, your vendor gives you 2 years legal guarantee (unless you bought it from a private non-merchant person). So, HTC does not have to do the repairs for free for you but your vendor has got to come up for it. It's as easy as 1 2 3. Turn against the vendor, not HTC. ;)

Where I live, they have 1 month time to repair it, otherwise you can return the rest of the accessories (cables, CD, etc. which came with the product) to your vendor, who must then give a full refund on the original price. That's even easier during the 1st 6 months after sale. So, check out your legal situation first before paying sth. In case of doubt, counsel at the local consumer union.
[Touch HD General] Freypal:
This is why I only get contracts directly through the phone operator and not through a vendor like phones4u / carphone warehouse and always get insurance.

I had umpteen sony ericssons replaced under warranty with orange and they simply send a handset out within 24 hours no questions via courier. Under waranty the excess on insurance is waivered but it jsut means you don't have to wait up to a month for a replacement.

Also had to claim on insurance for a broken digitizer and that was again sent out within 24 hours.

[Android Apps and Games] draky:
I was wondering if there was anyone out there who could do me a favor and change one of the buttons in the Power Control Widget. I was hoping that someone could change the sync button to a button that opens up the page to enable "Use only 2G networks"? I always want my phone to sync, however 2G syncs just fine and it works just fine for phone calls as well. It also keeps my battery lasting nearly a full day on my G1.

I currently have another widget that takes me to that page so I know it's doable. I would like to be able to get rid of the only widget I found that has that capability and doesn't match my theme.

I wish google would allow someone to push a button to enable/disable that function directly.

Thank you in advance
[Android Apps and Games] dioshy:
Draky,

I think that Widgetsoid will make the trick for you.

It's kind of tricky to understand how to setup the widget at the first place because you create the widget in one place and edit it (or control its functionalities) in another place, but it's pretty good.

I have been using it for 5 days now and I love it.

Best of all: IT'S FREE!!!

I hope that this helps.

My earpiece volume is adequate for me when it is set to MAX, but it reverts to somewhere in the middle every time I power cycle or reset my phone. I want it to stay at full volume *always*. I have changed everything I could find in the registry having to do with volume to the maximum, but still the phone always boots up at the halfway point. Driving me nuts!

Is there any way to force my volume to stay at the maximum level all the time, and preserve that setting when the phone is reset or powered off and on?

In order of importance;

1) Landscape keyboard. Which applications DOES NOT have landscape keyboard? Here are ones I would like to use the Landscape keyboard with, can somebody confirm them all?

a. HTC's SMS threading, b. Windows Live Messenger, c. Windows Live Mail/Hotmail, d. Microsoft Word, e. Calendar (date input), f. Notes app

2) I'm aware that the Touch Diamond 2 doesn't have 3g network in the US/canada. I'm not very familiar with the data connection and stuff, but is there EDGE at least?

3) TouchFlo3D/Manilla 2.5 - the new one with color tabs. Is it out? If i download Windows mobile 6.5 (officially, since TD2 is eligible for the update), will I get it? If not, how do i install the new TouchFlo3D?

Thanks to whoever can answer all my questions.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zimmicz:
1) AFAIK all the apps you have mentioned are capable of using landscape keyboard.

2) Yes, EDGE at least.

3) Official upgrade comes with Manila 2.1, some of cooked ROMs out there come with Sense. Generally, it is possible to get Sense on Topaz.

great phone to buy! (although i'd still rather have an HD2 :( lol)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arikado:
zimmicz, thanks so much! :) big help

2) I know 3G is much faster then EDGE. But are there any benefits EDGE has over 3G? such as taking less battery power, stuff like that.

Drag-On, thanks too :) But can anyone confirm 100% if landscape keyboard works on Windows live messenger? It really is part of a deciding factor for me.

Also,

4) Which application lets you put tasks/to do?? I know the calendar lets you set appointments and it shows up in the homescreen tab, but where do we put tasks? I'm not very familiar with Windows Mobile (yet)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drag-On:
pk, just tested that live messenger crap for you. it works 100% in landscape mode (i use manual landscape mode, not the accelerometer sensing one...it's quicker and i don't accidentally tilt the phone)

4) Tasks are handled by the standard WM Tasks application. HTC assumes you can make do with the calendar and appointments (they're right, it's no real difference to tasks...imo)

ok, i've just tested the tasks thing (it's actually ok. also, the keyboard works 100%)

no reason not to go ahead and buy the phone then :)

Does the touch diamond 2 (ones imported from europe/or bought online in their original boxes) come with the North american outlet charger?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drag-On:
probably not, however the standard charger is quite clever in the sense that you can keep the main body of the charger, but swap the type of plug.

have a look here (http://www.expansys.de/htc/p_htc_item.aspx?i=179244)

(first picture i found) and you will notice that there are other "fittings" available.

[General Topics] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
I'm personally pretty frustrated with this issue. AT&T really f*cks up their keyboards, and adds so much crap to their devices. I'd have thrown my Tilt and Tilt2 out the window if I hadn't learned about cooked ROMs. The keyboard is the absolute worst, though. Whoever at AT&T decides to ruin the otherwise great keyboards on the unlocked devices needs to be shot. And as you said, they decided to change the CAPS and FN key positions, after I already learned to type the opposite way for two years.

However, the antenna hardware is a limitation, in a sense. Meaning, you can't enable the US 3G bands on an unlocked device if they internal hardware antenna doesn't support it. In a podcast with Mobility Digest, one the legendary producers of HardSPL (Olipro) said that he's hacked radios and SPLs to allow all the frequencies to be utilized, and there was no signal, because the antenna hardware was not able to pick up the frequencies.

I think the real problem is the carriers. AT&T doesn't want people to buy an unlocked AT&T compatible phone that I can use without an expensive data plan that I'm locked into for 2 years. They also don't want me to buy a phone that also supports T-Mobile, so I can decide I don't like AT&T and take my phone with me, 3G coverage and all. So what AT&T does is pressure HTC not to release an unlocked version with their 3G frequencies supported. You're absolutely right when you say that quality of service should be the deciding factor in a network, not the phones they sell.
