[HD2 General] gadgetwizard:
Thinking of this as an analytical problem. I Switched to my old iPhone.

Updated the HD2 ROM to 1.66. Installed nothing but SIM card, did not set up the exchange active sync altered no settings so in effect a completely standard. HD2.

Left it switched on for 6 hours when the screen froze. Holding down the power button did nothing. Had to remove the battery.

Repeated the test. This time only two hours

Repeated the test happened overnight so unsure of time. Possible 6-7 hours.

Repeated the test. 4 hours.

Leaving the back cover off now as I'm worried it might start to work loose from all the removals.

Going to repeat the test again but this time switching off auto weather update.

So far my conclusion is that this phone is garbage. It's unreliable.

I think i might start the testing again and this time record everything in a diary. Compile a report and then send it back to HTC for a refund.
[HD2 General] zhix:
Ok .. i got back my HD2 and had been playing with it last 2 days ..

1) the screen hanging and manila getting corrupted after installing a number of apps still exists.

2) The screen locking SEEMs to be gone.

here's the strange thing,

HTC support insists that it's an SW issue and they cannot do anything about it but during the testing of the HD2, they noticed the phone keep dropping signals by itself.

So they changed the motherboard.

I'm not sure if that's the reason why i don't see the screen locking issue anymore but i will need to moniter a few more days.
[HD2 General] Beards:
Yes... I knew HTC would end up saying it's a software issue. I simply can not see them accepting this being a hardware issue.

However, interesting they changed the Motherboard (albeit for a different reason). The trouble now though is if you find the problem has disappeared it would be so easy to say "yes, it was down to the Motherboard after all", when most likely it will be down to some .dll or corrupt setting that's been cleared once and for all.

Only time will tell....... after you start to add further material.

I wish you well, please do keep us informed. :)
[HD2 General] the dragonlord:
Hi, I've strated to use MemMaid as you suggested but the issue still exists...now my HD2 crashes MORE and MORE times in a day. The thing I suppose that the fault is on the scheduling of the email check, infact every time the issue appears and I reset (soft) the device when it startes again I see new email/s arrived....I'm absolutely disappointed....I use also PhoneWeaver for the automatic change of the phone profile.

Any suggestion?

Regards

Andrea
[HD2 General] zhix:
Ok, i started to see this problem again after 1 week of zero incidents. However this time around, it's just a delay in turning on the screen (about 10-15 secs).

I did notice that the incidents happen at a location where the phone signal is pretty weak.

I do not know FOR SURE, if this is linked to the phone not being able to get a cell signal but that is my suspecion at the moment.

Will test furthur and update.
[HD2 General] zhix:
Andrea,

can you see if these incidents happens at places with low or zero signal?
[HD2 General] gadgetwizard:
Spent a lot of time last week trying to track it down. No joy (and not enough time!)

So on Saturday i installed Dutty's task manager to properly close programs when i press the x. Personally i think this is much better. Why HTC removed it for HD2 I'll never know.

I installed Dutty's my location fix as my location does not always update for me. Again why is this not an option anyway?

Stopped the weather updating automatically. I don't miss it...just update it manually when i want to know the latest weather. Saves resource, saves data.

Installed a trial version of Memmaid (yeah i know!) set up as beards demonstrated earlier in the post.

So far (Thursday) no lock ups. Phone seems speedy and responsive.

If Memmaid fixes the problem, then maybe HTC can refund me the money for it (!?)

Still don't know what causes the issue but at least i can get back to living my life.

Hello

is there any way to disable the home (red) button?

the button on my is oversensitive and i keep missing calls when taking my phone out of my pocket.

thanks
[Touch GSM General] ivanmatz:
Have you used S2U2 it has option to receive and reject calls, by going through some settings on it you can disable the hardware buttons.

Or

Use AE Button Plus to do the same.”

Note: the 1st (S2U2) is high memory consuming application. And the 2nd AE BPlus is a very light. Chose the best that suite you.

Cheers!

In vibrate mode, when there is phone call, the phone will vibrate > pause > vibrate > pause > vibrate > pause >...

In normal/sound mode, when there is phone call, the phone will ring and keep vibrating without any pause :(.

Is it normal:confused: Can the vibrate style in sound mode be changed to the one in vibrate mode? If yes, how to achieve it? Thank you!:)
[iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom General] MikeChannon:
Assuming you can locate the correct registry key, you can change it according to the detail below. Some example registry keys are given at the bottom:

Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics

If you would like more control over how your device rings/vibrates/flashes its LEDs on events, you can can change the Script values of these events. For example, for an incoming call performing 'activate device, play ringtone, wait 3 seconds, repeat':

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "apw3r" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

For performing 'active device, set volume to 33%, play ringtone, set volume to 67%, play ringtone, set volume to 100%, play ringtone (no repeat)':

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0\Script = "ac33pc67pc100p" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

The following are the full codes available to you. Please note that all the codes are executed simultaneously except after a ringtone play / wait code. E.g. 'v1p' will vibrate and play at the same time, while vibrating for 1 second. But 'pv1' will play the ringtone through all the way first, then start vibrating for 1 second.

a = activate device

cN = set volume to N in percentage max volume

fN = flash notification LED for N seconds

p = play ringtone. Note that this will play the ringtone all the way through before continuing with the next code.

r = repeat. Note that this should be the last code in your Script string, if used at all.

vN = vibrate for N seconds

v0 will vibrate continuously;

v3 will vibrate for 3 seconds;

v3p will vibrate for 3 seconds, then play the ringtone;

v0p will vibrate and play the ringtone at the same time, and when the ringtone stops, the vibrating stops as well;

v0p3 will vibrate and play the ringtone at the same time, and stop after 3 second
​

wN = wait for N seconds. Note that the device will wait this long before continuing with the next code.

Some more examples

Display - a

Flash - af1w60f0

Ring - apw3r

Ring Once - ap

Increasing Ring - c50apw3c150r

Vibrate Then Ring - v3w3apw3r

Vibrate - av3w3r

Short Vibrate - av1w3r

Vibrate Long Then Ring - v3w3v3w3apw3r

Vibrate And Ring - av0pw3r

Increasing Ring And Vibrate - c50apv3w3c150r

Fast Vibrate And Flash - af1v1w1f0r

There are several notification sound settings in the registry – examples:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RoamingRing0]

"Script"="apw3r"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\KnownCallerR ing0]

"Script"="apw3r"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0]

"Sound"="\\Storage Card\\My Documents\\Trout.wma"

"Script"="av0pw3r"

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dahauss:
Anyone notice that if you dont use one of those utilities that clears temp files, notifications, etc, after a while your TF3D and phone lags to the point of pressing on the screen and there is a nice delay?? i'm basically running the stock sprint rom, with the tweak package and a few basic mods..

any ideas??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lorin.bute:
Slowdowns aren't caused by temporary files and such. They are usually caused by high processor activity and by low amounts of ram available. You should check what services are running and the ram you have.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dahauss:
I dotn have very much running... mostly stock items and then memaid, email scheduler, glalarm
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
It's true that RAM gets gobbled up with time -- maybe worse with some ROMs than others -- and lack of operating memory can eventually make the phone laggy. I'm no expert, so I don't know exactly why RAM get's consumed and not relinquished, but it's a fact (not always, but often).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dahauss:
I'm using the stock ROM but a bunch of MODS including the cleanup cab file and 64 icons and 1% battery driver to name a few... earlier today I had to use memmaid and then soft reset as the machine would lag.. now its OK...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lorin.bute:
Some drivers and mods may have memory leaks so maybe one of them is causing this. Can you please tell us your average memory consumption?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
Are you on a stock WinMo 6.5 ROM? I find those to be not very optimized in terms of RAM usage. I've been flashing a couple ROMs and I've come to a couple of conclusions:

-Stick with the stock WinMo 6.1 ROM. I was pleasantly surprised by the speed of my device right out of the box.

-If you want WinMo 6.5, use Josh's or Sergio's ROMs. Excellent speed, features, and stability.

-If you want Sense 2.5, don't. Just forget it. It's obviously not meant for our devices. Just too much lag all around.

-If you can live without Sense or TF3D, that'll give you back a whole bunch of free RAM. Good alternatives are SPB Mobile Shell, Titanium, or HTC Home (the Today-plugin from the original HTC Touch).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lorin.bute:
I totally agree. The stock 6.1 is the fastest, stable and low ram consumer.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] royalbloodvi:
It used to work fine, until I installed a cracked version of iGO8. (But I'm not sure if this is why GPS doesnt work anymore).

Heres the details:

I Use Com4 4800

Quick GPS downloaded to latest each time

Tested in clear sky days (No clouds at all)

Used google maps, garmin XT (seeking GPS satellites (0)

HSDPA, 3G constantly 3-5 bars

Each time, they would try to track down a satellite, but never works. Not even 1. However, Built in gpS does work as gogle maps can track me down still. So its got to do with my GPS communicating with the Sattelites..something went wrong here (My assumption)

Tried for 5 minutes, 30 minutes, nothing.

So, I rang Xperia centre, andthey said its issues with my network connecting to GPS.

Whats this mean? Will uprading my radio to latest make my GPS work again? or WORSE??
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ratchet8clank:
Upgrading radio could help. Maybe the thing you installed edited the radio somehow?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hungry81:
if you BOUGHT it you would have customer support.

The problem with cracked software is its not very trustworthy. Plus your phone might not be supported by the original software. do you have the option to uninstall the cracked igo software? Do you get a lock when you use google maps? if you do then its just igo, if not its probrobly stuffing up your radio. If you cant uninstall it or you can and theres no improvement then its either try another radio or hard reset.

Maybe you should BUY your software next time and not have this problem.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganondolf:
tomtom works great, Ndrive works good too.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kikegago:
Try this...

try to delete the file of the quick gps software. I had a similar problem and I fixed with that.

you can find this file in "windows" and "temp" folders. the file is called "xtra.bin" in both folders. delete the files and try again.

in my case my xperia didn't find satellites and got frezze after a few minutes. after delete the files my xperia works fine again.
[HD2 General] Bence:

I've found that capitalization (after full stops) works if you disable HTC messaging, as per the thread about SMS messages not sending properly.
[HD2 General] profahmad:
Yep, WM's poutlook will and always has capitalised properly. You'll find that capitalisation when typing e-mails works as it should.
[HD2 General] sunking101:
Disabling HTC messaging sounds great but whenever I go to that particular thread, there seem to be people saying that the removal doesn't really work all that well - that parts of HTC messaging remain and that MMS can't be sent. Is this still the case? I will go for it myself if it all works correctly.
[HD2 General] BadMonkey:
Same here. I disabled HTC messaging to get sent notification back and noticed that the capitalisation started working again.

I don't use MMS, but when choosing 'New' from the soft menu only SMS appears (no MMS option).
[HD2 General] profahmad:
Apparently Arcsoft MMS is a good alternative but I never got it to work for me. I'm learning to live with HTC Messages.

That is the lock screen with 2.0 so yes

And Im working on gettin the Meta morph 2.0 theme working.... I flashed it using meta morph.... but its missing the advanced launcher.... how do I obtain that?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungOP:
I mean how do I get the advance launcher for this theme to get the Stericson lock screen
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robkoehler:
check the lock screen thread for the correct version to match your cyanogen version. it's an update zip that you flash from recovery.

the advanced launcher is available in it's thread as well. you can download a standalone version that installs like a regular app and you can set the advanced launcher as your default home, or you can use adb to push it and actually replace the stock launcher.

after you have those installed, you can apply the metamorph themes for them.

edit - i think there are links to the threads in the 2.0 theme thread
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyEye:
Alright, I tried flashing to Cyanogen's latest rom from a hero I had for a while (I wanted speed and missed long battery life) so I download the OTA file I was supposed to then flashed it and flashed cyanogenmod right after that like I was suppose to. I had problems where it was force closing every second and a question mark came over the battery, weird. So I wiped redownloaded then checked MD5 and then reflashed but I forgot to do cyanogen (I blame hulu for having me lose track and forget I didn't flash cyanogen) and then it boots and I was watching hulu some more soon to realize I don't have Super user or any apps that come with CM I figured I could go into recovery and flash CM, no its a completly different recovery. I tried fastboot to rewrite RA recovery and it said it worked and I reboot but its still the very limited and horrible recovery which isn't capable of flashing different roms. I tried update.zip (renaming CM). I'm almost at the point where I'm going to downgrade and re-root but I don't have data and I need to log in to google using data.. So anyone here have any ideas on how I can recovery my SU?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LucidREM:
Recovery Trouble

first .. try not to start threads like this .. there is a Q&A thread already and many many CM threads to post questions

second .. if /system/recovery.img exists it will try to flash it upon reboot .. so copy the RA recovery to /system/recovery.img and see it that does the trick for you .. i had a similar problem once and fixed it in this way
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyEye:
I tried to push and this is what happened

C:\>adb push recovery.img /system/
failed to copy 'recovery.img' to '/system//recovery.img': Read-only file system

I've never tried adb push for anything I usually used DroidExplorer but nothing showed in it.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
You have to mount the file system as read/write, search for the command.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
You have to do adb remount first, it will mount /system for read/write access
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jubeh:
Actually, he's supposed to adb root first and then adb remount. That's the way it works with the stock 1dp1 image. I told cyanogen that suggesting flashing either of those images was a mistake, many people bound to get it wrong. Easier to just fastboot flash system.img then fastboot reboot -w. The system won't boot right because of the incompatible boot.img, that's a good thing, then you can 3-finger reboot and then flash cm through recovery. Since the only things cm script copies are in /system, that's all you need.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
Oh well I've never had the problem so I've never lost root. At least it's not some ridiculously complicated process where you have to spin around 43 times while singing the Dora the Explorer song...backwards, and while gargling orange juice.

Hi you all...:D

I'm thinking on buying a new phone, but i'm indecisive and really dont know what to buy!

I am really undecided between Htc Hero or Acer Liquid...

I know that Hero was one of the best phone 5 months ago with Android?? But it still is? Or Liquid from Acer is a big, big promise?

Wich one do you guys think it's better (in terms of browsing, if not having multitouch is a big deal, and other things)?

Does anyone have tried both of them? If not, what do you think anyway?

Thanks in advance.:)

Won't the Hero processor get a little bit outdated ?? Or is it still be a hero fighter? :)

Acer Liquid is better just solely based on the newer Snapdragon, even though underclocked. Performance on HTC phones has been, and still is, a major issue for me. (HTC not paying for full drivers etc..)

Only thing holding me back from the Liquid would be its sound quality. Anyone have any idea if the Liquid's speakers handles voice calls/music playback decently?

Yes xda supports HTC phones, but does HTC even care or listen? ah well..this is an issue for another day..
