[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenLee:
I've got Taskiller ocd! Less stuff running definitely keeps your phone running nice and fast so if I'm not actively using an app then I kill it. Although I do have all the important stuff on the ignore list so the phone doesn't crash... or I miss an alarm like E2K ;)

I'm currently trying to decide which app I like best for the purpose, Taskiller Full or TaskPanel.

TaskPanel has more useful options like Auto-kill however I think it has a bigger memory footprint than Taskiller.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] a2002cmacg:
Okay, I searched and searched but could not find a solution to this issue. A very minor one, but a quite annoying one, at least to me.

I know a lot of people have been having problems with phantom text message notifications, but I actually want to be able to mark messages as "unread". In the Windows text message application, I select a message (or conversation thread), then when I go to "menu" > "mark as unread", that option isn't highlighted and I'm unable to select it. I'm also unable to select the flagging options in the "follow-up" submenu, though those are less important to me than the "mark as unread" option.

PLEASE help! I'm a heavy text messenger (part of the reason I got this phone), and I really need that feature.

Is there a registry hack or cab or something for this? Where would I look?

I am running a stock T-Mobile ROM.

Thanks in advance for your help.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ccunningham83:
I have a friend who got a MyTouch 3G off of craigslist. It works great, but he saw what I did with my G1 and wanted to root it and all of that business. Well as simple as everyone seems to make it, I still had issues getting it rooted, but I think I got it done. I noticed it already had the Engineering SPL already loaded on it when he got it. I managed to get Amon_RA's 1.2.3 Recovery on it and flash CM4.2.7.1.

Here is the problem, His phone isn't recognized by ADB. I can boot into fastboot and it will recognize the phone, but I tried to update it to Amon_RA's 1.5 recovery through fastboot and it said "NOT ALLOWED". I know I have ADB and Fastboot setup properly because it works fine for my G1. What could be the issue keeping his phone from working.

Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tazz9690:
what spl does it exactly have?

Does adb work on your phone from that same pc?

Do you have all your drivers correctly installed?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ccunningham83:
He has:

The Engineering SPL 1.33.0006

PVT32B board

Radio 2.22.19.26I

When I plug in the phone it doesn't ask for new drivers and I even tried to update them manually with the newest SDK.

My phone works fine from the same computer. Fastboot recognizes both of our phones, ADB only recognizes my phone. When I try to flash a new recovery on his phone via fastboot, it says not allowed.

My phone is:

Engineering SPL 1.33.2005

PVT 32B

CPLD-4

Radio 2.2219.26I

I tried that. Re-installing and updating ADB didn't work. Everything that works for my G1 doesn't seem to work for my friends MT3G. I also have a friend who has a stock Hero from sprint and his phone isn't recognized by ADB either.

Fastboot will recognize his device, but it won't allow me to flash his phone.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastludeh22:
Ok so I use my phone all the time. At work it tends to get beat up. I was wondering if I buy a second g1, after I root it, can I just flash my nandroid backup from one phone to other? Then I can just transfer sim card and use beat up one at work only.

Now what about a my3g? Can I go back and forth with it and g1?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
No, I really wouldnt reccomend something like that, G1 backup isnt compat with a mytouch..If you want a paper weight then fine do it.The choice is yours, all i can offer is advice.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Icebergxx:
I have nandroid backups of Cyan Build, Mamoth Pule roms, Motoblur, Soulife, and Dwang and I flash and back up to them all the time.

Of course I wipe before restoring but that's learned sense.

I wouldn't know about the MT3G I don't like that phone and I know theres the 32a and b version and that makes a difference somehow, but Idk.

I however have tried to pull files from 1 nandroid to the other [the data file] and flash that, it was working up until it tried to restore the file, but mind you I pulled it from a cyan build and tried to place it in a soul life backup.

I've really ****ed with nandroids hahaha.

Maybe if you're running a cyan build on your g1, back it up, and on the MT3G make a nandroid.

Look at both folders kinda examine em then pull the data file from the g1 folder and place it in the MT3G folder than flash.

Since Cyan roms are universal, I could see that working.

But like the guy above me stated about making paperweights, we all take risks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
You really shouldn't answer people's questions if you don't know. :rolleyes:

OP: Yes, you can restore a nandroid backup to a different g1 with no problems. Restoring a g1 backup to an mt3g is a bad idea however, The userdata partition will probably work, but you'll essentially be flashing a g1 rom on an mt3g which will break things like wireless and bt. It will probably boot, but it's not a good plan. You're definitely not going to end up with a paperweight though.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastludeh22:
Kind of what I thought but wasn't sure, wondering if other people have done it. Does nandroid reflash radio? I have 26I radio and death spl, only way I could see getting a brick is if I flashed a nandroid off an old radio and nandroid replaced it. (Which I don't think it does)

The mt3g does not have 32a, they are all 32b. Magics have some 32a versions. (Yes I know they are the same phon, but they are not the same phone, lol.) I can see some stuff not working, but at same time most roms are g1/mt3g compatabile having both build.prop files in rom so thought it woulkd, guess ill have to just try and find out, lol.

Last question. What if I do the duel g1 thing with sim cards in both? Would I get my email on both, but have different phone numbers?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenarmZ:
New versions of nandroid don't touch the radio anymore.. the old ones did though.

Not sure about your last question.. I imagine you'll just get emails on both. I don't think there are any restrictions on syncing 2 android devices with the same account.
[Touch Cruise 2 General] Giampy21Iolite:
Is there a landscape keyboard for this device? I tried pcarlvalho's ezinput but using that in portrait it hasn't italian t9.

wonderful I'm going to download it.

Many thanks
[Touch Cruise 2 General] Giampy21Iolite:
I've downloaded latest rom named "improved", but there is no landscape keyboard, which rom do you say?
[Touch Cruise 2 General] Blubster:
I tried, and i confirm it is not working as i expected. I don't remember which one, but there used to be a rom with a landscape keyboard.

The one i tried is build 21876.

I guess i should have tried again before answering, sorry!

You should try FingerKeyboard, it definitely has landscape support (have it working just in front of me!)... Find it here on xda, don't remember where, use the search function... ;)
[Touch Cruise 2 General] Giampy21Iolite:

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] D L M:
I switched to this phone (HTC Hero) from the Palm Pre and while the Pre had its issues it had some pluses over this phone. One being the email program. I know yahoo sux and all but this is my primary email for business and for some reason this phone constantly gives a login error when trying to get mail from it. WHY?? Also there is no push email? And is there or will there be swipe delete available, ever? I am new here and searched for emails before making this thread and nothing related came back. Thanks for any info
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] elmicha:
The "Google Mail" program (the one with the red and white envelope as an icon) does IMAP-IDLE/Push Mail. The HTC "Mail" program (the one with the mailbox as an icon) does not.

K-9 or k9mail also does Push mail (IMAP-IDLE). You can find it in the market or at http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/ . It also shows the error messages if something goes wrong, so you have a chance to correct your settings.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] D L M:
thanks, I appreciate the help. I don't see the option for push email in the google envelope, but I will try the other
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
Google doesn't call it push, its in settings>data synchronization>google>auto sync

I've tried for the last week to get the HTC mail apps to get mail pushed but resigned myself to just using the gmail app, which works great for push mail.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Pillock:
Google Mail seems to be most reliable for quick mail delivery, if you're stuck with a Yahoo account for business reasons you can set Yahoo Mail to auto-forward to Google Mail and then your Hero can download it from there. You can even set your reply-to address to Yahoo so it's transparent to the person emailing you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] suisen:
that, or open a gmail account and have it pull stuff from yahoo, bypass yahoo all together and have either gmail activesync or htc mail checking in intervals :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] itpromike:
He shouldn't have to do this. The phone should come with a good built in mail client... :( The iPhone has a good mail client that can use Push GMAIL, Mobile Me etc... as well as Exchange support and iMap and Pop3 support... If HTC is going to ship phones with their own software on a device that goes outside of what is provided through the OS and Google then they should ensure the quality of that software. :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] iammorris:
What's wrong with K9 mail? Half the reason for having such an open platform is so that developers can create their own apps and so that there is a variety of choices for end users.

People keep comparing Android phones to the iPhone without understanding that they're VERY different platforms. One is highly customizable and extensible (Android) and the other is locked down to being the same worldwide (iPhone.)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] itpromike:
Extensibility should never come at the price of reliability and quality. BTW there are other email Apps made for the iPhone that work very well. I was just pointing out that if you're going to bundle your software and sell your product at a premium it should be good software and not works some times under certain conditions and when the stars align just right. They are different platforms yes, but quality is quality regardless of open or closed (or perceived closed... you still have to root your phone to do a a alot of this customization you speak of which is no different than jailbreaking an iPhone if you want to be objective about it). You shouldn't have to rely on third party developers to make an app because your built in app isn't exceptional quality. If you package it with your product you should be stamping and standing by the quality of your product. Developers should add new features and apps that do things better than your existing app sure, but not because your software isn't up to snuff but because your product has already set a high standard and the developers can work hard to hit or even exceed that standard. If you have to cut some features to ensure that the features that are there are done REALLY REALLY well then so be it. Quality over quantity any day. This isn't a rail on Android as an OS as much as it is a rail on HTC for charging a premium for their phones because they package their own software with the phone that 'kinda works'. Why charge that premium and add your software to an already good phone OS if you're not going to make sure it works perfectly with industry standard features out of the box.

I followed the guide to fix my gps In windows mobile but for some reason, it still doesn't work. Would the GPS work if I flashed android instead of running it off windows mobile?
[Touch CDMA General] tatnai:
short answer, no it needs to work in win mo first. back to the drawing board. first you need to unlock your phone with an unlocker, then you need to flash an official rom preferrably from your carrier that is GPS enabled, then you can run android and use GPS on it. many tuts around. if you did all of this already, you didn't do it right. also, some programs in win mo require GPS to be primed before working. make sure to use something like google maps to test in win mo.

Failed to mount data fs on SD Card.

/bin/sh1 can't access ttyl job control turned off.

The link in the first post has been updated to reflect this change. My apologies.
[Touch CDMA General] 160bpm:
If that is only the difference then we can rename it itself if you already have the files.

Question: Can you also replace the system.sqsh with a build you like?

(When you know for sure it is working.. :) beside if GPS/Bluetooth is working.)

And in the ROM there is: zimage, initrd and haret.exe?

:( the flash will not work on a Kaiser :( have try the new ZIP file.
