preparing a Linux-bootable memory card is too complicated :( I guess I'll come back if there is some stupid install package run on Windows available. ;)

hey, there is a way! now you can run ubuntu via haret just as simply as running android! take a look at the rhobunto thread:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5927361#post5927361

you need an specific startup for blackstone, its posted in the last pages of that thread. good luck!

Hi all,

our new goal is to make Rhobuntu work not only on Rhodium but also Diamond, Diamond2, Touch Pro and Blackstone. We did a lot of improvements and tweaks to improve the support for all these devices, but we also need feedback of their owners, so that we can know what to fix. Our newest build is supposed to run also on your Blackstone.

Be sure to check the links in my signature where you can find all the necessary information. The installation is as easy as copying the files on your SD card and editing one text file. So, try it out and report back ;)

I think, I'm going to try it out, if you can confirm that there are no problems with class6 SDs like on Android.

There is a feature/row in menu of WM6.5 e-mail client called FOLLOW UP. It is not activated and the 3 available options are dimmed and cannot be used.

-set flag

-complete flag

with Exchange 2007 flagging works both ways for me; i can flag an email on my phone and it shows up as flagged on my laptop and vice-versa (without the follow up date/time). could this be due to me using Exchange 2007 and you using 2003? i'm also using miri v14 custom ROM....

Hi,

I went through the long time consuming process in order to unlock my Hero from the Orange UK network. I ended up with a custom rom Default [ROM] Hero 2.1 UPDATE 1.4 [4/12/09]. However im finding this full of bugs. As im new to android i would like to get a stable ROM on there (like the standard Orange one) and was wondering if i put the origional one on there will the phone still be unlocked?

Alternativly if you can suggest any stable ROMS that would be great.

Kusky

HTC TOUCH HD
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kusky:
can anyone help with this info? would ideally like to sort this tonight
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lord Lucan:
Reason no one replied is because your Q is not clear.

First how did you manage to change from Orange rom to generic, if I understood you, bypassing CID?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
first of all this is in the wrong section of the forum, this belongs to q&a not development.

if we we are talking about simlock here it is my understanding that it is independant of the rom, and therefore not changed by a custom or stock rom. i have no experience with this, i'm happily using my hero with the provider selling it here :) so you might get a second opinion on that.

if you want a fast, stable, rooted custom rom get modaco 3.0.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueHawk:
+1 on MoDaCo's latest ROM - you don't want an original ROM as it will unroot your phone and make it difficult to root it again after it has been applied.

The unlocking only applies to allowing your phone accept SIMs from different providers - that is independent of your ROM. My Telus Hero is unlocked and working on the Rogers network.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
Not quite true - the Orange version of 2.73 had a problem when entering unlock codes. Whether this was a bug or by design isn't known, but in order to circumvent it you have to flash a non-Orange ROM to actually unlock.

I would imagine that the phone would remain unlocked if you flashed back to the Orange ROM, as I think it was more of a code entry/saving issue, but I'd add another vote for a MoDaCo ROM.

Regards,

Dave

having the similar problems,

mine phone wont unlock via

and i dont have permissions to XML edit.

Please post here, if you have HARDSPL'd your NZ or OZ phone, or if you havnt so we can get some support going and hopefully work it out.

[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
You need to use QMAT to generate a Goldcard onto a MicroSD. You can then use the MicroSD card to bring the lock level to 0 and Flash the phone via Bootloader to the TMO Dash3G ROM and App unlock it from there to run JumpSPL. No time to write it up write now but thats how to do it. :)

You can use my Unbricking thread to learn how to Generate an HTC Maple Goldcard. Fun learning experience!

QMAT can be obtained here:

[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] slaya:
I have a HTC Snap from Telstra that has WM6.5 so it had SPL 1.24 on it.

After searching around for a way to remove some of the application security that was enforced on the phone i thought id give this a shot.

Google for "unlock-the-security-on-the-samsung-jack" and you should see a link from 1800pocketpc.

Use the clearsecurity.cab that you get from that link and run it on the phone and everything is unlocked.

After installing you can uninstall as battery gets drained very quickly.

You can then use hardspl 1.19 and it works with no issues :)

Will try a custom rom later as its a company phone and i need to be able to enrol it and use Telstra APN's

Hope this helps someone

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] chuteless:
Hi,

I've had use of a Touch Dual for the past few days, but have to send it back due to a fault. Although I'm getting a refund in this situation, I'm thinking of buying another, because I quite like the phone - I just have a couple of questions...

Is there any way of turning off the sound when you dial a number? (the touch-tone sound on each button press)

Also, can it go into a 'standby' mode where you can still see the time (faintly) on the screen, instead of turning the screen completely off? I found it useful with my old phone to be able to just look at the screen to see the time (it displayed it as a kind of screensaver).

Thanks for your help.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] orangekid:
I don't own a touch dual (looking at getting one) but I can guarantee you there is a way to turn off the sound when you dial a number, its a standard setting in windows mobile,

as for the faint screen I can pretty much guarantee you theres a way to do it as well, whether you use a lockscreen program like s2u2. it would drain the battery to have it on ALL the time, what you want is something where u just press the middle button and the clock turns on right away, then turns the screen off 10 seconds later, which also you can do.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General] chuteless:
Thanks for the information orangekid - I thought there must be a way to at least turn off the sound - I'll just have to look around the options in windows mobile a little more when I manage to get a new one.
[Touch HD General] 7896zx:
as the title says how do i play music using the touch flo 3d music player with the screen off?
[Touch HD General] accountabc:
just play a song and put the device in standby by pressing the standby button on top?
[Touch HD General] 7896zx:
yeah that only works with the earphones/headphones in but without that playing through the speaker?
[Touch HD General] dataSaMm:
It would be great if we could turn the screen of while playing music of the Touch FLO. I tried, but the screen doesn't go off even if set to turn off after a minute.

If the music is playing and I press the power button the screen goes off and so does the music.

Only work around solution for me was to open CorePlayer and select screen off, then it works fine.
[Touch HD General] 7896zx:
but i would really perfer just to be able to do it, without going into another program, i pretty sure some on xda knows how to
[Touch HD General] lobondre:
I wouldn't know, but I use nitrogen, which has a button to turn off the screen. I find this player more user friendly than the HD default player. It also has a volume button with more increments than the volume rocker switch. also scrolling through media is much better
[Touch HD General] Juggler258:
Hello,

The way I use to enable me to play TF3d music with screen off, if to modify the registry entry:

HKLM\System\State\Hardware\Headset =1

You can then start your music and press the top power button to switch off the screen.

This will automatically reset to zero (ie off) when the phone is reset. I use a little mortscript to modify this registry at startup.
[Touch HD General] 7896zx:
is there any CAB. file?
[Touch HD General] Juggler258:
Hello,

If you have not got mortscript already installed, install the mortscript cab below. Then download the HeadsetPresent.txt to your device. Rename HeadsetPresent.txt to HeadsetPresent.mscr (i couldn't upload .mscr).

I assume you need a soft reset after installing the mortscript .cab.

Then when you click on the .mscr file, it will modify your registry HKLM\System\State\Hardware\Headset = 1

As I said earlier, a soft reset will change this registry back to 0, so you will need to click the .mscr again to activate. Either put a shortcut to the .mscr in your start menu or startup folder.
[Touch HD General] 7896zx:
thank you for that

Is there anyway to map a networked drive on a local network?

I was hoping I could connect to my home wifi and then stream videos from a shared drive on a PC.

Any way this is possible?
[Hero CDMA General] xdarkfluxx:
There is a SMB File Sharing app in the market. I never used it but it should work.
[Hero CDMA General] venumx:
have you looked into gmote or aFile?
[Hero CDMA General] watzone69:
I was searching for the same thing a while back. What I finally did was download Gmote on my phone and Gmote server for my home computer. I set it up to allow me to connect to a Media folder over the 3G network (I'm with Sprint). I had to forward the port on my router at home and add an exception to my firewall. I also had to get a static IP for my router by using No-IP.

Once all that was done I could open gmote on my phone, pick my media folder on my home computer and start streaming my mp3s. Since it's over the 3G network I can be anywhere! The sound quality is great as well and I like the simple VLC player. My only complaint is that I wish the player would show album art in the background instead of just in the lower corner. I think it will do that over wifi but not 3g.

It takes a little bit of setup but the results are well worth it!
[Hero CDMA General] fatkitty420:
I'm seeing that it copies file... but is there a way to stream?

I'll test it out when I get home.
[Hero CDMA General] fatkitty420:
This sounds awesome. Luckily, I have a couple of servers running on the PC already so I just need to configure the software.

Will it work for videos?
[Hero CDMA General] Kcarpenter:
If you are just streaming Media, try out ORB. Its cool, download a server app on the home computer, it scans for all your media then login to the website and pick your song that you want to play or video, what ever. Ironically i just posted this on another thread too....:D
[Hero CDMA General] watzone69:
I haven't had much luck but, then again, I only tried one video.
[Hero CDMA General] fatkitty420:
Can't get remote desktop to work... I guess I need to check the settings. I'll go home and set up both servers and test both apps out. Hopefully everything will go smoothly.

It seems like the Google Calander API is realtivly simple.

But-

This will take several weeks seeing as how I have very limited time resources. I am sure someone will ask to beta, thats cool. If you want it, I will PM you with a Link.

Don't expect anything pretty, I am a function person, I don't care what it looks like as long as it works and works well.

Oh and keeping the spirit of the phone alive (something our carriers have not done) I'll make the source open.

[HD2 General] Cret:
I currently have a touch HD/Blackstone and I love it to bits, but the prospect of having a capacitive multitouch screen and much faster responses when navigating round the phone/opening/running apps etc is starting to tempt me very strongly to the HD2/Leo.

Have any of you Leo owners upgraded from the Blackstone? If so, please can you let me know your thoughts on whether it was a good move, what the pros & cons are etc, and whether the new phone really is super fast and slick like the reviews I've read say it is.

If I get one I'd probably want to be running SPB shell on it, which from looking through here I assume it works, but will most apps for the blackstone also work on the Leo?

I know there's no stylus with the Leo for instance, but for fiddly stuff does the screen accept the use of a fingernail for 'precision' (ish!) stuff like checkboxes & small menus, or does it have to be skin contact or a real capacitive stylus etc?

Regardless of whether you upgraded from a Blackstone, are you very pleased with the way the phone works in terms of performance and 'slickness'?

Last questions are - what's the video performance like on the Leo, ie does it have all the problems the HD has in terms of poor out of the box performance with video playback?

And is the bluetooth stuff still hardcoded for the HTC music player (like the blackstone), or would I be able to properly use my sony bluetooth headset to control the likes of coreplayer?

Sorry for all the questions - I really want to upgrade to the Leo, but it will cost me a lot and I don't want to make a mistake.

Many thanks for any useful replies!

[HD2 General] chalid:
After having the Touch HD for 2 month I really loved it. Everything was running as I wanted it to be ... :) But then HTC announced the HD2 and I decided to switch to it after watching lots of videos in youtube an other sites. I would do it again ... :)

I don't have any problems using the OS without a stylus. In fact I wasn't using the stylus or my fingernails on my Touch HD either. I only needed to adapt to the higher screen responsiveness, but that was it.

HD2 pros compared to the Touch HD:

+ MUCH higher build quality. The Touch HD always felt somehow cheap, except it actually wasn't ... :rolleyes:

+ Everything is just faster. I wasn't too thrilled with TouchFLO 3D on the Touch HD, as it slowed down the device too much. No problems on the HD2, although the new version of TouchFLO 3D (Sense ...) grew in so many aspects and is now pretty well integrated into the OS.

+ The bigger screen. Didn't thing its a big deal, but the screen-difference between the two devices is astonishing. Its much more fun to use multimediacontent on the HD2.

+ Pinch to Zoom.
