Hi, there

I have a shodow from T-mobile with wm6.1 system. Recently, I

tried to modify the registry to support chinese fonts. I can add/modify

under \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft, but can not

change the values under \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI.

Anybody knows the reason? Thanks!

[Shadow General] zhanglm79:
I generated a cab file which has command to modify the registry and

succeeded.

Hi,

I've been trying to get the MyPhone premium features trial (locate lost phone/remote ring etc.) to work on the HD2 and to set this up the service needs to send 12 silent messages to the phone. This worked on my old Polaris just fine but on the HD2 it fails to recieve these 12 messages and therfeore the service cant be used.

Does anyone else have this problem???

Thanks
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Just gave it a go - same problem - FYI I'm on Vodafone..
[HD2 General] Cafun:
Have you guy's updated your ROM to the newest version? Maybe HTC has fixed it... I don't know, but it's worth a try.
[HD2 General] DMAND:
I've not flashed yet, due to the O2 branded ROM, might try the goldcard method on the weekend.

Anyone with the newer ROM care to try the free premium features trial and report back :)

Thanks
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Yes I have - latest 1.48 ROM :(
[HD2 General] DMAND:
No luck with a 1.48 ROM? maybe its something else as it cant be operator specific

Hd2 my phone premium features dont work

I have a HD2 which i bought sim free which Im using on the Orange UK 3G network.

I've also noticed that the premium features on ms_myphone dont work with the HD2.

Along with everyone else, I get the message that the phone cannot be contacted.
[HD2 General] Cafun:
As soon as the ROM is officially announced on the website of HTC: Report this issue. Maybe they fix it soon then...
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
TBH don't see the point in waiting until ROM is officially announced, after all it doesn't work in the current ROM neither! So reporting it as "not working" now just means they can't come back with a "this feature is supported in a forthcoming ROM" (or if they do then we'll know they are talking about something coming later in the pipeline than 1.48!).

I think the more people that report it the better; especially as the whole MS MyPhone feature doesn't seem to have had all that much marketing (at least the here in the UK) therefore the might not immediately be that many people complaining about it.

Just my opinion :)
[HD2 General] Gustopher:
Don't know if it's relevant, but having run MyPnone on the original ROM I was (as is standard) asked to download an update to the application. I did this and all was well until today when I was asked to download another update, which I have also done.

Why not see if there is any way to force this update - it may be a bugfix?
[HD2 General] NeilM:
No, still doesn't work with my SIM free HD2 on Orange UK- "The ring/ lock request couldn't be sent due to a problem with our service"
[HD2 General] SimonW500:
Semi-relevent but sadly not a fix..

The 'updated' version of the MyPhone app contains the code for the 'Premium' service to work, however these in turn have to then be supported by the phone itself. FYI. Turns out what it does is constantly monitor your incoming txt messages for and intercepts specially formatted ones from the MS server instructing it to do something (ie. for the MyPhone app to launch and connect back to base, turn ringer to full and ring, acquire GPS fix, etc etc). I'd hazard a guess it is the HTC Sence txt messaging service which is preventing this service from working - after all it is known already not to play nice with the txt message notification queue and instead hog it to itself.

So in summary: without the update you'd have no chance of the location element of the Premium Services working, with it you still need support from your handset and it would seem up to ROM 1.48 at least we have sadly confirmed not to have this with the HD2 at this stage. A fix needs to come from either HTC or Microsoft (further updated to MyPhone app), or quite possibly both.

:)

There's a relevant thread over at the MyPhone forum that I tried to add to http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/MyPhone/thread/57659d5c-2077-4387-9bda-92643e17cab7

Serriously, your telling me that no one cares about locating their lost phone, remote wiping etc!

[HD2 General] samsamuel:
If you are looking for find my phone style software, forget the myphone premium, go look at Remotetracker. Free, and superb. Stuffed with tons of features. TXT your phone, it will call you back with the microphone open, another command will text you gps coordinates and a link to the position on google maps, another commands will start the gps, make a 5 minute track log and then text it to you in google earth compatible format,, send popup messages to teh phone, get it to send you all your contacts, get it to wipe the SD card, the list is endless.

http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/
[HD2 General] DMAND:
remotetracker is good but I would prefer to be able to use a website to contact my phone rather than having to send a text to it. also being able to ring the phone etc and view it on a map
[HD2 General] CHIP STAXMAN:
Do you have to pay in order to test if the service works? If not I'll test it on Virgin on Monday. I'm running 1.48.405.2 plus all official hotfixes. And only standard apps that came with the phone.
[HD2 General] DMAND:
There's a free trial period that you can try to setup, after that I think its £3 per ten uses or something like that, its not a monthly subscription thing unlike the iPhone mobile me thing
[HD2 General] mdmhd2:
Premium doesn't work for me.

[HD2 General] jamieeeee:
i have seen somewhere that premium features dont work outside the US. that would explain it.
[HD2 General] jamieeeee:
huge kick, but anyway syncing my location somehow worked 1 time.. i live in europe and it shows he phone's location from 2 days ago. it synced 2 times automatic and 1 time manually since then but that didnt seem to send the location.. any thoughts of why?
[HD2 General] operative1:
1.) i'm in germany and the premium service worked on my htc kaiser here

2.) syncing the location kinda sucks as the hd2 tries to get the location based on a GPS signal. and if you're indoors, that won't work all the time

3.) for the premium services not working on the hd2. yeah, there's a problem with the so called MessageInterceptor function. The HD2 uses it's own methods for handling incomming SMS even if you disable htc sense. funny though, microsoft has a developer network post online for dealing with that

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa446561.aspx
[HD2 General] RonnyGydar:
MyPhone has been fixed in latest version

Seems like Microsoft have fixed the SMS issue, the one that when you try out the premium services, and you get some cryptic SMSes in the inbox, that was obviously meant for the MyPhone application. Tested lastest verison of MyPhone (30.03.2010) on the latest official Norwegian HTC ROM.

It seems Microsoft have chosen some other way to solve this issue.

Since the reason it did not work before was most likely to a generic issue/bug that HTC Messaging introduces, that makes the API that developers use to listen/subscribe to incomming SMSes (Microsoft.WindowsMobile.PocketOutlook.MessageInterception.MessageInterceptor).

And I have an application that got the same issue on phones with HTC Messaging, and our application stil has this issue on phones with HTC Messaging, but MyPhone now work on them. Works fine on every other phone...HTC, Samsung, whatever...also HD2...just not with ROMs that have HTC Messaging.

Good for MS, and everyone that use MyPhone...even greater if they just got HTC to fix HTC Messaging, so that every application that follows Microsoft guidelines around this also would work.

I guess there is a lot less hope of getting this fixed from HTC now...when MyPhone did not worked, I thought that would get HTC to fix it. Now it is just a lot of small 3.party SMS apps that does not work on "newer HTC phones".
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kkroo:
I came to sell my Fuze, and the new owner returned the phone because apparently the rear speaker (ringtones, music, hands-free) isn't working. I did a hard reset, flashed a new ROM, reflashed HardSPL, and nothing. So I changed the internal speaker, and nothing. I tested both the old and new speakers, and i did get a resistance across them so they aint blown. Unfortunately, I just ran out of warranty 3 weeks ago, and i don't want to pay $100s from HTC's warranty service.

Has anyone had this problem before? I know the source of the problem might be in the logic board (looked at leaked service manual). Does anybody know a specific way to further test the source of the problem, and maybe direct me in the path of purchasing the parts for it?

Thanks a lot
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] moh980:
I had a similar problem and the HTC service centre had to change the speaker and the mother board ( luckily it was still under warranty)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] freakzone:
I had the same problem. Changed the speaker but didn't work. A friend of mine disassembled the phone, couldn't fix it, when he assembled it, it worked. His guess was a bad connection in the electrical circuit. There is a metal plate below the speaker with multiple circuits. He said the problem was there. The other option is busted amplifier, which means either a new motherboard or a new phone. My friend had an idea about fixing the electrical circuit before the phone magically worked. If you wish I can ask him what he had in mind as I'm no good at disassembling phones :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kkroo:
Yeah, that'd be awesome if you could get some info. Otherwise, the phone is worthless :\
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] maxh:
You're talking about the speaker that's glued into the back housing, right? I took apart my phone to replace the LCD and ended up mangling the connector for that speaker. The wires broke and I ran over it with my office chair. No matter what I did I couldn't get it to re-seat properly. It would plug in, but still wouldn't work. I finally just soldered the wires directly to the two tiny round contacts just in front of the connector and it worked. I don't know of a good way off the top of my head to test the output, but if you have a connection problem, that's one way to fix it.

Well, there's this app called "KeitaiText" I guess it's the closest you will get right now for Emoji in SMS... for emails the same dev made a different app.

I don't think Google will strive for compatibility with CURRENT iPhone emoji, since they use SoftBank encodings.... maybe when emoji are standardized in Unicode... but only the newer devices will be compatible, since entirely different encodings are used for the emoji chars.

Hi, some time ago I bumped on a program on WM that was able to control and forward my second phone (ericsson t610) calls via BT to my primary headset. Since I'm using 2 sim cards for my personal and business calls I really hate dealing with 2 phones. Can you direct me to a program that can connect to my stupid second phone and can take and make calls via BT, so my second phone sits in my pocket while I control it whit my HTC HD.

P.S. If there is any possible way of connect via INTERNET to my 2nd phone and use it by TCP/IP or voice over ip somehow it will be even better because I have 3G internet connection pack to my Operator and quite a lot of MB to waste. Of course we should think of a way to connect my second phone (or just sim) to a home internet connection.
