Hi Everybody, I need software which keeps count of the usage of mobile internet . I have an limit of 250 MB per month, i dont wanna go over it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ridolfo:
You could try SPB Wireles Monitor (it's not free, though).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] freaknormel:
Finally Somebody Who helps..

Thank you very much !!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] hopper13:
Ditto on SPB. Not free, but works great. I think it has a 30 free trial.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] John Charles:
You could try LCminutes, there is a thread somewhere on XDA but the most up to date version is here:

http://lctools.blogspot.com/2009/08/lcminutes-155-is-out.html

It's free by the way
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ridolfo:
Does LCMinutes monitor data traffic? I thought it was for calls, and SMS monitoring.
[Touch HD General] Black Antitoon:
I don't find any option to do so, but since I selected a custom wallpaper, the home screen is extremely slow. How do I revert to default?

Thanks :)
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Go to settings tab > Personalize > Home tab wallpaper and then select weather wallpaper for default

or

Go to settings tab > Personalize > Lock screen wallpaper and it will ask you if you want to use default
[Touch HD General] Black Antitoon:
Thank you, but I have already tried this. If I click on "Weather wallpaper" I am taken to a select image dialog, exactly as if I had clicked on "Animated wallpaper". Should I think of a bug in the ROM (Xannytech)?
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Actually I never noticed that before but you can still restore default by clicking on Weather wallpaper > albums > my device > my wallpapers and default wallpaper should be one of these

Ciao
[Touch HD General] MAMeingast:
I have the same problem...

And since I've used HD Wall to change the wallpapers on all of the tabs, I can't use your suggested solution to get back to the "default" wallpaper, which is no longer the regular default wallpaper but the one I made with HD Wall! :(

Any other ideas?
[Touch HD General] d.cortez:
for me, i had to clear the values stored in the CachedBackgroundPath and HomeBackgroundPath registry entries, both of which are located under the key HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila. once cleared, i soft reset my device and the default wallpapers appeared again. hopefully this isn't the only/best method.
[Touch HD General] MAMeingast:
Thank you so much!

Eventhough this is not the easiest method, atleast it's a solution! :D
[Touch HD General] petzku:
TY, saved my day :)
[Touch HD General] ClydeB1:
Another way - the default wallpapers are stored in \Windows and are named stwater_480_800 and stwater_800_480 ( for landscape). You can copy the first one to your Wallpapers folder and select it there.

Hi everybody,

how can I modify the Touch Input keyboard layout? I would like to make Hungarian layout and specify the characters other than in the English layout. Do I have to create and modify the 0A0E.xml - 0D0E.xml files?

Guys, I use sometimes the youtube app from Google.

Apparently this is easy and efficient application,

BUT it results in quite poor videos quality.

What is strange, on videos of X2 the video gets fullscreen and better quality there.

Is there any way to increase the videos quality on X1 form this native app??
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emuneee:
The video quality automatically increases if you use wifi, but its not much of a quality boost. I hope Google issues a Youtube update with higher quality codecs enabled.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
ok, I see...

Well, strange that on X2 the videos look very good.

Maybe it's an an optimised version of this app?
[HD2 General] de5perate:
I have DHCP enabled on my router but for some annoying reason my HD2 seems to want to pick the IP address 192.168.1.1 even though my router should be assigning IPs in the range 192.168.0.3 - 256. Please could someone tell me how I go about assigning a static IP to my HD2? I have gone through all the settings and have google searched but come up with nothing. The address it picks means that it will be incompatible with my network and cannot access the internet.

Is it the settings under Broadcom 802.11 DHD Network Driver or Broadcom 802.11 Network Driver?

Thanks
[HD2 General] Archer:
I can't remember where you assign a static IP address, but I'll warn you against it.

I did this a while ago and found that wifi worked as normal, but I couldn't get a data connection any other way. It was trying to assign the static IP address even when not using wifi, and obviously my provider's network didn't like giving me a 192.168 address.

My suggestion would be to assign the IP address to the MAC address of your phone. I've got that setup on my home router cos someone was "using it" without my consent. It now has a list of valid MAC addresses (PS3, Xbox, Phone etc..) and assigns each specific IP address to a specific piece of hardware.
[HD2 General] Sir_Dee:
Did you manage to fix that problem? In that case, how? The same occurs for me but I don't know which IP the phone suggests, where can I see that?
[HD2 General] erik.alphenaar:
I've done this oce using the Broadcom 802.11 DHD one.

You could also try to use a utility like vxUtil (albeit an old tool) or another one of your preference to check your IP config per adapter and try to ping stuff. This way you can easily check your config changes.
[HD2 General] hanzocloud:
What's the difference between "Broadcom 802.11 Network Adapter" and "Broadcom 802.11 DHD Network Adapter" ?
[HD2 General] Kev007:
i would recommend using WifiProfiles, although i dont use it on my HD2, it worked perfectly on my TG01, Atom and Neo.

once again, like vxUtil (mentioned by erik.alphenaar), it is pretty old.

good luck, and please share your findings, i'm sure i'll run into the same problem soon.
[HD2 General] ahmetdamar:
Thank you. Good working in my HD2
[HD2 General] cymax:
Just stop WIFIROUTER application (service) on you HD2... When this app (service) is started then your phone acts like a router (routing Cellular data to WiFi) and your IP will always be 192.168.1.1 (i think) and phone DHCP serves other IP addresses to the clients that will be connected to him.

i cant find this out at all?? anyone?? ive clicked menu, then weather wallpaper, then albums, then chose my own wallpaper, but nothing else happens?? ive even tried the default weather wallpaper, still no effects, weatehr is on and auto update, what aam i doing wrong ?
[HD2 General] dam26:
Turn on Google Location in google maps and that should do it.
[HD2 General] johnkst:
I've had the same problem sice I first got my Leo. I did a search and found another thread on the subject (can't remember where!). Unfortunately it fizzled out before a proper solution was found. But from what I remember of it, the post above is on the right track.

The weather effect on the Today screen is tied in to the 'My Location' function on the Weather screen, which in turn gets your current location from Google Maps.

If the 'My Location' feature on Google Maps doesn't work, your weather will not update on the Weather screen and therefore the weather effect will not work on the Today screen.

Also, and this is particularly frustating, even when the 'My Location' feature on Google Maps does work (as mine does), often the feature still does not work! This seems to be dependent on your actual location in the country...

I also remember seeing some older posts from the States saying that the 'My Location' service in Google Maps is 'switched off' for many US providers. But that may be out of date, by now...

Maybe the above will give you some useful keywords to run through search engines...

Good luck!
[HD2 General] Archer:
I've NEVER had the "my location" feature working, either on my HD with a Leo ROM, or on my HD2. None of the suggestions on the forums have worked for me either, so I've given up on it.

You can remove "my location" from your weather tab with the cab by Dutty at the bottom of this post...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4935494&postcount=2

Once you've done that, manually add your own city/cities and then go to the home tab, click the clock, and make sure you have your city selected. Then, you should get get the weather for your selected city.

That's the way I've got it anyway, and it works for me. I'd like "my location" working, but I don't travel so much that I can't keep track of where I am myself! lol

Good luck!
[HD2 General] johnkst:
Spot on, JohnC...!

I'd always missed out the step of choosing one of the manually selected locations in the WorldClock app before. That was why it wouldn't work for me.

I'm still hoping for a solution to the 'My Location' problem though, so I'm leaving that switched on for the moment...

Btw... If you find you cannot select your own town/city because it is not available in the list, you should do a search on here for 'WeatherCityEditor', which is a nice little tool that will allow you to add more towns...
[HD2 General] mox123:
fixed it now, basically it was the location thingy, i had disabled it ages ago in the hope of saving battery or something like that lol, its back on now
[HD2 General] modx:
I'd followed your step but still cannot back to weather wallpaper.

Help me please
[HD2 General] Shawn_230:
So you have the little weather icon under your clock, but you don't have the full screen weather effect? If that's the case you just need to tap menu on the home tab, press home wallpaper and select weather wallpaper.

I personally had to disable My Location because it defaulted on my whole state as opposed to me city so it wasn't entirely accurate. But even though I've manually set my location, it still sometimes defaults to 'My Location' on the home tab and I need to tap the clock and reselect my city. Any fix for this?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RocketGuns:
Hello all,

The HTC Hero is great but I do have a minor problem.

For weeks the phone has been asking me at the most random moments for the pin(3) code for unlocking the phone (about 2-3 times a day). Then I wiped the phone, reinstalled everything and it worked fine for over a week until now. So what happened in the last 2 days or so? Nothing,... well, I went to Belgium (I live in the Netherlands) so it tried to connect to another network but failed.

Anyway, problem is that it asks me randomly for a pincode to unlock. During that time i am unreachable.

Anyone got an idea how to solve this?

Thanks!

(btw, I have not installed a custom-rom or rooted it or anything)

edit: also, once unlocked it asks me to confirm the time-zone....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Russinating:
I've tried searching but I can't find an answer to this for the HD2.

Is there a way of limiting the number of messages displayed in an SMS conversation's history? I'm having to wait a good 10 seconds for all the past texts of some contacts to load before I can start to type, which is obviously extremely annoying. Limiting the amount it displays to 20 or so would be absolutely fine.

Anyone have any ideas?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] richardirv:
This is a good idea, at the moment I am trying to keep on top of my messages by deleting older ones. I find it very strange that there is such a huge delay when there are loads of messages in a conversation. Whats the 1ghz processor doing? Having a tea break?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Straynart:
Oh ? I thought I was the only one who suffured of the loading speed in the SMS history.

On my last and beloved Cruise, the history was splitting in a few pages.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lex85:
I hope HTC knows about this problem and will release a fix! Just write HTC about it...the more the merrier!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hitchi:
correct! Please report it to HTC so that they will fix this.

For the moment you can use this "workaround":

Open the inbox for this contact and try immadiately to hit the "send" button and answer the question "...really want to send an empty message.." witn "no"....that's it.

the keyboard is directly available and you can answer
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dick turpin:
i wonder if its possibly something to do with the small thumbnail images on every message thats slowing it down????? maybe removing these may make a difference, anybody know how to do that though?? lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Hitchi:
I've tried it and that has no effect on the speed
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dick turpin:
booo! lol i`v reduced the text size to smallest and that seems to have helped a bit, i havent got many messages right now i`l know soon if it really makes an impact when i dont delete my messages.:)

forget that comment above dont think it makes a blind bit of difference lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] matt07930:
Just click

All Messages > Menu > Settings > Traditional Mode
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Straynart:
The traditional mode separate the sent messages and the received messages.

But if one has lot of messages from the same contact, this will still be slow.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] R3dD3vil:
Solution

My solution for this problem is that once a day a sync with windows my phone and archive the old messages there or save old messages with jeyo mobile companion, thus leaving in the phone a minimum amount of messages. until HTC solves the problem this works for me :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Eoinoc:
I'm archiving old messages on MS MyPhone too for the time being. An acceptable workaround for me for the time being.

[HD2 General] SimonW500:
I have a question for S2U2 users - exactly what functionality and/or "better experience" do you gain over the standard built-in WM6.5 lock screen (which also has the slide to unlock control)?

I know this is an extremely popular application so I'm wondering if I'm missing out on something! I have read elsewhere that it isn't 100% compatible with the HD2 as yet - unable to lock the hardware buttons - although that said this is no worse than the standard HTC offering! Does it offer anything above and beyond the standard offering in terms of better controlling phantom screen switch ons while in the pocket = battery drain? I think this is the main key reason I'd look to use something like S2U2 if it helped in this area, however I'm afraid that having the extra process(es) running would in fact have the opposite effect. Also can you customise what is displayed on the lock screen a bit more (ideally I'd like a bit more of my calendar than the default single entry on the standard WM6.5 offering)?

Questions, question I know, just I've "re-done" my HD2 4 time now since it arrived last week and it's now in fairly acceptable state.. so I don't really want to be going installing random apps on it just to try them out (and find they offer me nothing) only to struggle removing them (as sadly happens with quite a few apps).

As always thanks in advance.. :)
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
I think you mean S2U2?

If you go to the Development & Hacking section and search for S2U2 you can see what the software's features are. It started life as an Iphone clone locker but has developed significantly on and away from that. I use it on my TYTN and will be doing so when my HD2 arrives.

Incidentally I understand perfectly what you mean about breaking a device you have painstakingly built. Go to SPB Software Warehouse online and purchase a copy of SPB Backup.

This software will allow you to backup your entire phone, including SD card, if you wish. I tend to copy the SD card to my PC then backup the phone to the SD card in a sub directory.

The beauty about SPB Backup is that if you break your phone due to an install then you can simply roll that back by hard resetting your device then restoring the entire phone back to the way it last was by running your backup file that's sat on your SD card. Simple.

All the best,

The problem is that the icons in my start menu in landscape mode is the same as in portrait mode (3 icons in a row and not like first 5 in a row)

Does someone how to fix this?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ryotgz:
Have you tried doing a soft reset or taking the battery out for 5 minutes? If that doesn't work you may have better luck with a hard reset, but back your data up if you do.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
That's not really a problem. There are certain files that dictate how many columns of icons in the start menu, scrolling parameters, etc. Download and install this cab I made, soft reset, and see if that changes it. It should make the start menu 3 rows in portrait, and 5 in landscape. If it doesn't work, you can always uninstall it with no damage done.

Hi,

I'm running my tytn II on TPC Elite 6.5 (it's how I got it)

However, aside from the m2d being completely useless in landscape, the time doesn't "sit" in the correct place (image attached) on the slide to unlock screen.

Is there a fix for this?

Also, if anyone can suggest a rom good on battery, ram and with the standard 6.5 "chome" screen I'd be happy to hear from you (if it has the slide to unlock feature also I'd be happy!)

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] denco7:
As it has been stated more than a thousand times, M2D was ported from a device that does not have a slide out keyboard, therefore it has been hacked into landscape as far as it can. It is what it is.

That is the " mega " screen, the clock is supposed to be offset from the gray background, just look at any other mega theme.

If you do not like either, there are plenty of other UIs around that were actually meant for the Kaiser, that work in landscape. And if you search, there are 100's of SU2U themes that you can use.
