[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] jdc:
Wow, it's been a while since I looked at flashing a radio ROM on the BA... There appears to be multiple ways now. Have you followed the directions in the wiki, available here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Radio_1.15_Upgrade
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] bobtheogre:
Ok, so I upgraded the radio to 1.15 finally. And still, no connectivity with my SIM.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] bobtheogre:
UPDATE: Just tried a T-Mobile SIM from my friends G1 and was able to make calls and connect. So Its must be my SIM card, for some reason....

EDIT: I just soft reset it with my AT&T SIM card in, and now it says that its connected to Cingular, however, I cannot make calls or send text messages.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] jdc:
Sorry for the delay...

Hmm, interesting... Well since it worked with TMo, I don't think that the phone itself is bad. It looks like it's something with your SIM. You could try a different one (know anyone else on AT&T?), or check with the AT&T store and see if a rep can look up what info they have on the phone and swap out your SIM with one that is known to work with the phone.

Right now, that's all I can think of. If I think of anything else, I'll followup, but I do think that it's your SIM that is causing the issue at this point. I've never heard of anyone having to do anything special with one of those to allow calls to be made, much less send text messages (not picture messages, which do require some setup).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tabobaby:
is anybody know how to remove the tab which was installed by the GSM provider

thank you in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dick turpin:
sorry dont know, but have to say I've never seen that tab before on any other homescreen image.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kb0n:
Take a look at registry key "HKLM/Software/HTC/Manilla/Configuration/x" for each tab. Seems like each tab is listet there, and each one has an entry "Enable" that can be set to "0". Probably soft-reset required afterwards.

Have not tested it yet, but this is the first place I would look =)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Benz-Driver:
I've got a question:

Did you all have Copilot removed from storage card and system?

Could Copilot disturb TomTom?

There must be a reason why TomTom is that slow with my HD2.

Are you sure that TomTom isn't running in background when you start it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] B0MBACI:
Try to install TT on the phone, the maps can be installed on the sd card.

On my HD2 also 5 seconds with western europe card.

*Co pilot is still on my phone
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Psygnosis84:
First off, you're running a different version of TomTom to everyone else, try getting the same version and report back.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NickT:
I've just noticed that my TomTom has now started to load slowly, the splash screen comes up for quite some time (30 seconds) and then the screen goes blank for a while (maybe 15 seconds) then TomTom loads but it takes forever.

I've just been messing about with the phone to work out what is going on. I've tried many different things but I think I've worked out what it is.

The latest PocketGPSWorld speed UK Speed Zone complete POIs (16th December) seem to have caused the problem!

I was happily using TomTom with no problems even since the ROM upgrade to v1.48 and I've not changed much other than installing latest BsB Tweaks 1.5 and the 3 HTC hotfixes for the phone, I've not added many files to the storage card etc.

I was using the PocketGPSWorld database from November with no issues.

I'm trying to work out if there is a specific POI which is doing it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NickT:
Scratch my previous post, I couldn't consistantly get it working smoothly and quickly 100% of the time by playing around with the POIs installed.

I have now resolved my problem of slow loading / strange behaviour and poor performance in TomTom by backing up the contents of my 8GB SanDisk memory card and then formating it on the phone again. I copied back the maps (Western European 1GB maps v840.2561) and the Program Files folder which contained the TomTom install (v7.916) as well as other programs (games etc.). It is now running perfectly again! I have all of my POIs back on the phone including all speed cameras.

I formatted my card which was originally in my old O2 XDA Orbit 2 when I first got the HD2 as music wasn't playing on it properly. Maybe I have been playing with it too much :)

Worth formatting the card if you are having problems I think!

FYI:

I used 7.916.9189 for a very long time and never had issues related to Startup time or others...lately i decided to update to TTN_7.918.9193_VGA_black and started to have the Very Slow Startup times (>30sec)!!

So if you're planning to update to a newer version like i did...just stay still as there's no difference between both versions i stated! I'm going back to 7.916!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] degake:
I'm also using TTNavigator 7.198.9193, with the latest available v855 W&CE map and have no lag...

Start up with HD2 is 3-4sec, start-up with Blackstone is a bit slower (why should that be?? :D), but still 6-7sec :)

I think it's due to your memorycard.

Maybe your using a slow (class 2) memory card.

But since you hadn't have those long boot time before, I think you just need to format your mem card :)

So.... back up everything you need, format it and put everything back :) And the lag should've been gone :)

Grtz,

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xv-6800:
Does anyone know of a way that you can pick a different "from" e-mail address? I have multiple accounts, but am using Google to POP all the accounts, which I then access via Google's Microsoft Exchange with Active Sync. Whenever I reply (or send new messages), the messages are all preset with the gmail address in the From line, when I would prefer to be able to choose different addresses be entered in the From line.

I also have a Verizon WirelessSync account which also uses a single From address.

The reason I don't want multiple accounts setup in Outlook Mobile is because:

1) There's a limit of six accounts, and I have 13 e-mail accounts

2) Popping addresses every so often eats significant battery juice

TIA
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] steviewevie:
I don't know if this will work for the way you are doing it, but Google Mail has a way to set a different "From" address, so that it looks like you're sending it from another account and not Google.

Go into "Settings", "Accounts and Import" and add your desired "From" address into the "Send Mail As" section.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xv-6800:
I am aware of that option in Google, but that only applies to web-based mail. In other words, you have to be viewing your mail online via their web-based interface in order for that to work.:mad:

That's why I asked if someone knew of a way, or had a hack, to "open up" the From address field in mobile Outlook.;)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macetex:
Hi, i bricked my phone by installing the death spl, before i brick another one I was just wondering if someone could be kind enough to guide me through on how to install it after i rooted the phone. Thanks.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdrianK:
1)Gain root/flash the recovery image

2)Flash any 1.5/1.6 based ROM (that doesn't require 1.33.2005 SPL...that's what "death" actually is...)

3) Check your radio, go to Settings > About, baseband version should end in 26i.

If not flash this (You must name it update.zip, flash with alt-s, and reboot using home+back, if not it wont flash), otherwise don't bother.

4) Check your radio again :P The reason it bricked before was that you didn't have the radio for 1.5/1.6

5) Flash the SPL (again, name it update.zip, alt-s, home+back. If not it just wont flash).

6) Your phone will reboot, just leave it a few minutes to be safe

7) Pull the battery, put it back in, boot in to recovery

8) Flash a ROM.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maek_it_happen:
Make sure u have a phone with a pvt board
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macetex:
Thank you very much AdrianK, but what is a pvt board?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
pvt board is nonsense.

Back when people started installing the deathspl, nobody could figure out the pattern of devices that bricked or not bricked, so some people tried to guess at the possibilities and one of the guesses was that dvt boards bricked. This was NOT the reason though -- plenty of pvt boards bricked, and plenty of dvt boards DID NOT brick.

It was later discovered that the big thing that GUARANTEED a brick was the installed IPL and its compatibility with the deathspl, but some people still remember the incorrect guess about the cause of bricks and for whatever reason assume it to be a valid reason.

A statistical analysis of the bricks will show that as of now, a LOT more pvt boards are bricked than dvt... partly because of the assumption that a dvt WILL brick (and therefore nobody tries), but mainly because there are a LOT MORE pvt boards than dvt boards.

Anyways, don't worry about pvt vs dvt. It makes no difference. The only known factor is the IPL version... but some brick despite the IPL (i.e., all the steps appear to have been followed correctly), and this includes pvt boards.

1) There is always a risk of bricking when installing an SPL that is *NOT COMPATIBLE* with the device... and this SPL is from an HTC MAGIC -- it is not compatible with ANY HTC DREAMs.

2) pvt/dvt makes no difference.

3) to *reduce* the chances of coming out with a brick, ensure that the IPL is correct.

4) there is actually no reason to bother with this. You can move some system files into the /cache partition and symlink them if you need more space for /system.

(The deal is a 9700 for $75 and then a free 8520, but i hate blackberry's or WM phones after having an android phone) so she got her crappy blackberry and I picked up the Behold II. Love the fact that it has 320MB RAM. As soon as we can try custom firmwares, etc, i'm going to give Debian Linux a try on it.

I been googling but was overwhelm with all different rom and instructions.

and I can't get the phone to enter bootloader mode when press Camera + power, it just go straight to recovery mode.
[G1 General] RodrigoKim:
something's wrong with the image file you're trying to install. From the looks of it, the files aren't signed, so the phone won't install it.

I'm assuming you're looking for the official 1.6 image and you have a regular g1, not a ADP1 so...

look around the forums here, someone reuploaded those files since htc pulled them down from their website.

Be aware that if you just install the official 1.6 image, the recovery menu is gonna be gone. Or at least it was for me when i did. You're gonna have to reinstall the recovery menu if you use just the official image, without any other roms like CM.
[G1 General] abcchoier:
