Hey guys i know this might sound a little weird

but i wrote a shortcut so i can go straight to new sms

works a treat (if anyone knows how to force it to go to landscape mode please hint away)

now what im wnating to do though is convert this shortcut to a program becuase if its a program then i can set it up as one of my hardbuttons

any ideas? or is there a way to edit the hardbutton program options list ot include the shortcut i have made?

regards

p.s. and if anyone has a gameboy emulator that WORKS on i8000 ... :P

dont worry gang

by moving the link to windows\start menu

it becomes an option!! :)
[HD2 General] wackyD:
Hi all,

I love this phone! However, all my computers at home run Win7 and are on a homegroup network. I am unable to access this network through resco explorer though!

Any ideas on how to get this setup working?
[HD2 General] Lukasss:
Have you turned on Password Protected Sharing in 7's Network and Sharing Center?

Can you access non homegroup shares with other devices (eg maybe friends laptop) without joining the homegroup?

I run Win 7, but I don't use homegroup functionality on my LAN - Resco maps the drive just fine.

Grtz

Lukas
[HD2 General] wackyD:
Damn, homegroup is good in terms of security.. looks like i'd have to disable it to get full network access for all non-homegroup devices..

Quick Question

Is it possible to Take say Sense Heroe's Rosie and Framework.apk, and replace the ones in jesterblurr 1.2.6? Would it require re-building the ROM and re-signing it? As im on W Vista.

If there is a thread explaining this sorry.

Thanks in advance.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
Just take the two things you want (in this case Rosie.apk and framework-res.apk) from Sense Hero download and push them to the directories on Jesterblur

framework-res.apk goes in /system/framework

And the Rosie location differs from one rom to the next so do a search in the Jester thread to find out where
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shatterv2:
Do i need to adb push?

With root explorer i pushed a colored Rosie through with MLIGN,and it worked but hmm.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
No you don't need to, I just use push as a general term for all possible ways (adb, terminal, root explorer, and recovery console) Any way will work. If you do Rosie however it will freak out then become the themed version, but framework-res requires a reboot
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shatterv2:
Just pushed them both right now booting the phone up...

BEAUTIFUL :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
I'm thinking that meant it worked. Manup's Rosie is very nice I agree
[Dash 3G, Snap General] bagelsaurusrex:
Hey guys, I'm new to the forums and just installed the 3VO ROM.

This was an issue I had with my Dash 3G even when I was on WM 6.1 - but I notice that when I'm in the Start Menu, the text in top black bar at the top of the screen which has the Time, Signal, Battery Meter, etc. disappears? Because I have my start menu titles disabled, it's a little difficult to navigate because I can't see what any program/folder is called.

It seems like it's being forced to the left; it recenters once I reboot my phone - but otherwise, I don't know what's up. I can post a screenshot if my description's a little ambiguous.

Thanks!

[Touch Pro CDMA] mapaz04:
use this

use this cab, it appears that messaging is still not ready for the new 2011 builds...

This will disable the HTC Messaging and take you back to the winmo messaging.

You also need the second cab to take your phone back to what sense2.1 used and it should work...

There is also a third file attached, that one you install by itself, you have to go to the "all messages" then you have to go to the menu>options>settings and put your settings.

Search on it a little more, If I find the full information again I will let you know. I read on it last night and got my wifes touch pro2 to mms again so this should work for you too...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] priz2:
I bought DOCOMO HT-02A diamond touch in Japan and tried to flash a ROM to RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.03.707.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship

It is good to use in Asia like China, Thailand, Etc. However when i use it in Japan, it is useable but the telephone signal is very weak. So i guess the Radio i use is not good to use in DOCOMO network.

Since i had not dump the original ROM of it before i flashed, i do not have it on hand. I am wondering if anyone have it or not?

I really appreciate if you will share your Radio or ROM that is good to use with DOCOMO network in Japan. Thx

I just got a Tilt 2 the other day, and this is my first HTC phone. I love it so far, but I am having an issue of not being able to login to any site in the any either opera or IE. It either tells me the login in incorrect (which it is not) or that my session has expired, without ever actually logging in.

I tried to install skyfire, but it will not even run, just returns errors and closes.

Anyone else have/had this issue or know what the problem might be?

I can not login to any site, I have tested 10 or so sites.

I have also tried putting both browers in mobile only mode, with no change.

I actually have two of these phones right now, and the problem is on both phones.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mtbmdk:
I have the same problem, specificaly with mesh. It states my cookies are expired, even after clearing all cookies, history and browser cache.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] oulzac:
I take that back.

Logins for things like cpanel/plesk/billing scripts (whmcs, ect) and web scripts such as WP or Joomla and even Kayako don't work. But I can login to sites like ESPN/Sportsline, ebay, ect.

I take it there is something missing from these mobile browsers that is not passing along the proper info to these scripts that does not allow them to be logged in.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] oulzac:
I finally got skyfire to work, but the same logins fail in that browser also.

I even tried to install the beta of mobile firefox (can't remember the code name now), and it was horrid, worst mobile browser I have ever seen.

There has to be a way to change cookie settings or something to allow these type of script logins.

thanks to vagrik and his Tiger ROM for this...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] vashi:
you can!

and i recommend, if you do install the newer version, install it on your storage card - so the cache (which is sometimes signifikant), will also go to your SD Card.

The site where u can download version 3.3 from

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] jdwilson:
I installed Google Maps v3.3 on my HTC Pure and it never saw my GPS. This was the direct download from Google. It said it did not support my phone. I reverted back to the older version from my Tilt, and that works fine.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] player911:
Thats because the GoogleMaps 3.3 cab file is programmed bad. It appears to be missing a "\" from all of the reg entry paths and file links. The cab actually installs 2 of the same file. 1 has a correct path... the other is screwed up.

Here is the 3.3 files. If you already have Google Maps installed, then just over write older files with these updated ones.

GoogleMaps doesn't hardly use any reg keys on install. Cooking in GoogleMaps, I've never had to change the reg entries. So you'll be fine just over writing the files.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] sualc:
Thanks for your contribution, I overwrote the zip files but did not notice any difference. Even my version number stays the same: 3.2
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Baldrick1:
Hi there

Can I check that the recommended way to move to v3.3 from the stock version that comes from HTC with the phone is to download the attached CAB file and just run that? Should the install be to the Device or the SD Card? Presumably to overwrite it should be to the same place that the stock version is currently installed...which I assume is the Device? But if one want to take advantage of installing to the SD card so that the cache also resides there (suggestion from earlier poster) who would one uninstall the stock offering that came with the phone?

Apologies for all the questions. I am a newbie and just getting into this.

Cheers

hi.

this isnt working for me. i used the hex editor to copy sections 00000000 to 00000170 from goldcard.img to my sdcard, then shut down and turned on phone with HOME+POWER, it "hangs" on phone with exclamation mark image. if i press home+power again i'm presented with default android recovery. i did put DREAMIMG.NBH to the root of my sdcard.

that means no confirming anything... what am i doing wrong then?

can anyone quickly tell me what the advantages of having the hard spl are? all iv done is rooted, (via 1 click) and then flashed cyanogens latest. radio was already up-to-date. just wondered if flashing new spl changes anything? many thanks
[G1 Android Development] bbuchacher:
Hard SPL enables you to install roms like Hero or others that have a large "update".zip
[G1 Android Development] Ace42:
Actually...The Haykuro SPL allows that...
[G1 Android Development] persiansown:
Right. HardSPL (and DangerSPL) are something that allow fastboot. Fastbooting of images allows the flashing of 1:1 images of system, data, boot, cache, pretty much everything.

You should always have HardSPL/DangerSPL installed so you can fastboot a nandroid image as a worstcase scenario.

Jesus, the amount of noobiness is this thread is astounding.
[G1 Android Development] da_jojo:
thnx for clearing that out :)

as i said i dont own a G1 i modded a friends one . so i dont know anything about this G1 but getting a new rom on it hehe.

i choose the hardspl as precaution and it seemed pretty stable from what i read.

i choose the 1.5 recovery as i thought it should have the same recovery image as the rom . dont know about that. it is the 1.4 recovery with some extras which are usefull, cant deny that.

i choose the rom as it seemed to be the most stable at the moment and allows thetering . this is why i needed to rom upgrade in the first place. second place that i just like modding and unlocking so that one can do everything with the device as it is yours anyway.

Do help me out on this one. I really can't seem to actually make my SD card into the gold card part. Whenever i plug it in the G1 or on a USB reader it tells me it's damage and needs to format. :(

i have two questions, Can i flash SPL first, then do a downgrade then flash recovery?

2nd : If i can't then can i flash recovery, flash spl then do a downgrade to RC7?

if so how do i flash my recovery?

DO HELP ME OUT PLEASEE! i've been on this for days!!!
[G1 Android Development] DirectMatrix:
I know that this is going to cause problems and fighting but, I cannot read this thread and not say anything in good conscious.

With the amount of errors and misinformation in this thread, perhaps the OP should leave the tutorials and how-to's to the people that actually HAVE a G1, have modified ROMs on their phone, and can support the questions that are asked in the thread.

Just my two cents, but I have a feeling that my words are supported judging from the general consensus of the previous posts.

[G1 Android Development] TabascoTX:
Id have to second that, while I may not have many posts here on XDA,I've rooted and rebuilt and replaced screens from 7 G1's using the how to's and wiki's here on XDA(thanks devs). My thought is if it the current guides work we should prob stick with them unless someone else figures a better faster way.(ie;one click root). By the way,just wanna say,I've never charged anyone to root their phone or fix one. The knowledge I've gained I learned here,it wasn't something I developed and I think its wrong for people to take open knowledge they didn't come up with and charge other people for it like I've seen at some of these cell phone repair shops and on craigslist. If your gonna charge for the knowledge then pay the people you gained the knowledge from. Sorry for going off topic,just had to vent.

GPS Issues caused by Custom Roms

I experienced the same thing. The only rom that works, and I have tried 6 of them including leo, the cell rom and others. GPS only works with my original ATT rom. Google Maps will not work and any other apps depending on the Gps. I think it has something to do with MYLOCATION in the new custom roms. I also notice that MYLOCATION will only work after some adjustments meaning when i flash a rom it will not work after flashing.

Has anyone had a similar experience. I am stuck with the ATT stock rom because I need my GPS to work. Any sugggestions.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KodieG:
I don't mean to sound like a noob or anything, but i've seen this around alot and haven't been able to find much info.

I've come to the understanding that the SPL and the radio have something to do with the phone's boot loader, but that's really all i know.

Info about my phone is in my signature.

Do i want to upgrade my SPL and/or Radio?

Any info you can give me would be very helpful.

Thank You.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
Only upgrade your spl if you plan on going to something such as a hero or blur rom. They basically rearrange your phones memory partitions to give more to .system and /data to allow for bigger roms to be used. If you plan on staying on cyanogen, any spl will work as of right now.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KodieG:
Is that the only reason why people upgrade their radio and spl?

And how come i see people using cyan with upgraded spl's and radios?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
Of course not the radio must be changed if you want to use custom roms.The whole point of having root access if loading custom roms that are faster than OTA.Think about it like having a Government ID and still waiting in line at the airport, pointless right? The Special SPL allows you to install larger roms(eclair/hero/blur/pulse/)cyanogen doesnt need the special spl though.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KodieG:
Ok, so its probably a good idea to upgrade my radio atleast, right?

If so, where could i get the latest radio version?
