Please note that some chef lock the ROM & preventing effective dump. I dud try some, that works, others not. Easiest is to keep the original nbh file if you need to reflash later.
[General Questions and Answers] oakdale_cricket:
Hi -- I am a BlackBerry user (*ducking to avoid flame throwers*) and all I want is to create a theme using the sleek Windows Mobile 6.5 default icons. I found a couple of them, but all would be fantastic. (And, yes, I really did search - these forums and the web.)

Many thanks to anyone who is generous enough to help me.

Thanks and Happy Holidays!
[General Questions and Answers] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
If you can specify which icons you'd like, I can strip them out and post them. :)
[General Questions and Answers] dwizzy130:
Here you go. I included the newer HTC startmenu icons too.

Happy Holidays!

Any CDMA Android users(Eris/Hero) here facing issue with 3G not working despite being in a good 3G area while other Sprint or VZW users having full bars while on your phone it keeps fluctuating between bars or 1X and 3G?
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
Very reliable for me... coverage in hawaii is excellent
[Hero CDMA General] tbaker077:
I don't think its coverage, I think is more of a software thing from Googleing around
[Hero CDMA General] myke66:
Yes, i've noticed this the past couple of days. In the same spot in my apartment ill have a strong 3G signal for most of the night, then randomly it will switch to 1x for a while, then sometimes after a phone reboot or toggling mobile internet i'll get 3G back.

I thought it was just a coverage thing but it wouldn't make sense to be, i have 5 bar signal.
[Hero CDMA General] tdavis42:
Your signal is greatly affected by the weather outside. When it is cold or wet you have the chance of receiving a weaker signal. But when it is warm the signal will extend. This is because when it gets cold the particles in the air move around more causing the air to be denser. When it is warm this is the opposite causing your signal to flow freer through the atmosphere. Hope this makes sense I wrote it on my phone and didn't prof.
[Hero CDMA General] tbaker077:
So, even thought is sunny outside and the weather isn't too cold(HB got very nice weather right now), the fact that I am sitting down in my living room and the data on my phone went idle as I am searching market place is due to the the weather? Odd....
[Hero CDMA General] tdavis42:
http://www.the-cell-phone-advisor.com/cell-phone-reception.html Found this to help you understand and in reading it I got mixed up I think in my explanation. Sorry. Also, You don't have to sound condescending when you talk to people about things you don't know about. Or haven't researched.
[Hero CDMA General] tbaker077:
Thank you. As a note the Eris was having problems with 3G idling and switching between 1X and 3G. An update came out last week to fix that, but some say that update didn't fix the issue.
[Hero CDMA General] tbaker077:
You think I should exchange my Eris for another one and see if things are better? Or is that not worth the effort?
[Hero CDMA General] tdavis42:
I don't think it is worth it. If it is only a firmware issue wait till 2.x comes and see if it is fixed. But I wouldn't give up the Eris for any of the other crap Verizon offers at $99 or less

Edit: Who is saying that it didn't help? I am really just curious to read what they have to say not mocking you. Link(s) please.
[Hero CDMA General] tbaker077:
No I was saying return it for another Eris as I like the phone a lot. Well I am getting the feeling maybe the update VZW brought out didn't fully fix that issue that is all.
[Hero CDMA General] tbaker077:
I am reading that this maybe an Android issue as my friend with a Omnia on VZW gets better speeds and more bars than I do in the same place.
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
The eris is imo the best handset verizon offers right now. The moto droid is a close second.
[Hero CDMA General] tbaker077:
We should call and email HTC complain to them about this issue, so they can have it checked pronto. Please I ask you.
[Hero CDMA General] chalan30:
Isnt this just what Hybrid mode does?

So is this fluctuating 3G not normal? My real issue is the data connection being lost all together, which does essentially cause my 3G to come in and out.
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
I'd like to point out a fallacy in your post. What actually happens when something gets cold is the particles compact together, and when they get hot, the spread out. The exception to this is water, which expands when it freezes. This is why it's said you should run warm water over a cap you can't get off. Warm it up, expand the metal and there's more give.

how do I can copy all my contact to my simcard??

I know that I can that one by one but I have a lot of contact!!!!

I am sure that there should be some application somewhere!!!

thanks for your help!!!
[General Topics] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
What device do you have and what ROM?
[General Topics] hvilly:
I have an HTC touch diamond 2 with the official ROM winmo 6.5
[General Topics] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
Pretty easy. Open up Contacts--> Menu--> SIM manager--> Menu--> Contacts to SIM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] InRBigness:
Okay I am really starting to regret this phone as its being a pain. I have an ATT tilt2 on Rogers and settings all work.

On my Kaiser when an app needed the Data it would turn it on and all would be good. Then after a certain amt of time of non use it would disconnect the data. Is there a setting that allows the phone to turn on the data when its needed? It seems that its either on or off.

This leads me to the second issue. About 5 times a day I get a message that the connection failed. I can then go to the settings and turn on the data connection and the internet will work again. I have never turned it off nor do I have any programs that restrict it.

Lastly, I have a bunch of factory connections that I can not use as I am not on ATT's service plus a few I created when I was first setting up the phone. I can delete some of them in connection manager how do I get rid of them permanantly?

It seems to me that there is way less user configuration in 6.5 than in 6.1 yet thanks to ATT its 3 times as large. Can anyone suggest a work around for the Data on demand issue?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mikey717:
I use HD Tweak and it works fairly well. Because the hardware is a little different, not all of the settings translate, but the things that are common between both phones works fine. You can find the link on this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=452505

Under section 6 (Data), there is a "Disconnect After", which I set for 2 minutes. Once the data is idle for 2 mins, it disconnects. The next time a program needs it again, the data connects again. Don't forget to soft reset after making changes.

Hope this helps
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] InRBigness:
Okay got it working :)

Thanks its working now. I had installed that but there must have been somthing corrupt in my ROM as I was also unable to Harddpl it. I did two hard resets in a row, was able to flash then reistalled and now it seems to work fine.

Now if someone would make an app that uses different LED's for different notices similar to the Kaiser Notification app that was awsome.
[G1 Android Development] Wysie:
Hi all,

I'm in the process of adding more features to Contacts.apk (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=599194), and have run into a "bug" with my latest attempt in adding the green call icon to the Contacts list (similar to Call Log), so that you can dial directly without first tapping on a Contact.

I've posted the problem here: http://www.anddev.org/viewtopic.php?p=31252 and would really appreciate if you all could give me some pointers.

Thank you :).

Also, the main issue is:

view.findViewById(R.id.call_icon);

is returning null for some reason.

Note: My github does not contain the source with this problem, please go to the anddev thread and download it from there. Thanks! :)
[G1 Android Development] nick8197:
Did you pull your pants down then try? It worked for me last time
[G1 Android Development] jasonpeinko:
try typecasting callView
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
I only looked briefly ... sooo ...

How is callView defined in ContactsListActivity.java?

github doesn't show it ....

final static class ContactListItemCache {
public TextView nameView;
public CharArrayBuffer nameBuffer = new CharArrayBuffer(128);
public TextView labelView;
public CharArrayBuffer labelBuffer = new CharArrayBuffer(128);
public TextView numberView;
public CharArrayBuffer numberBuffer = new CharArrayBuffer(128);
public ImageView presenceView;
public ImageView photoView;
}

Also, consider a matching return type before the function call ... something like I dunno ...

public View newView(Context context, Cursor cursor, ViewGroup parent) {
final View view = super.newView(context, cursor, parent);

final ContactListItemCache cache = new ContactListItemCache();
cache.nameView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.name);
cache.labelView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.label);
cache.numberView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.number);
cache.presenceView = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.presence);
cache.photoView = (ImageView) view.findViewById(R.id.photo);
- cache.callView = view.findViewById(R.id.call_icon);
+ cache.callView = (DontPressWithParentImageView ) view.findViewById(R.id.call_icon);

if (cache.callView == null)
Log.d("NULL: CALLVIEW", "Why?");

view.setTag(cache);

return view;
}

I could be off base here ... but since the git appears incomplete in relation to your posted problem ... etc ... best I can do in a quick drive by. Hope it helps.

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] Wysie:
enom: If you go to the anddev thread I've attached the full (non-working, bugged) source. In it:

final static class ContactListItemCache {
public TextView nameView;
public CharArrayBuffer nameBuffer = new CharArrayBuffer(128);
public TextView labelView;
public CharArrayBuffer labelBuffer = new CharArrayBuffer(128);
public TextView numberView;
public CharArrayBuffer numberBuffer = new CharArrayBuffer(128);
public ImageView presenceView;
public ImageView photoView;
public View callView;
}

jasonpeinko: I did that already, not working. The main issue here is view.findViewById(R.id.call_icon) is returning null :(.

Thanks for the help guys!
[G1 Android Development] enomther:
So ... I must be blind ... I don't see the attached bugged source ... still could be off base here ... but ...

Since call_icon is type View, should it not be as such in the xml ...

/>

- <com.android.contacts.ui.widget.DontPressWithParentImageView android:id="@+id/call_icon"
+ <View android:id="@+i/call_icon"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"

??

Either way, it's late I need sleep. :)

~enom~
[G1 Android Development] Wysie:
enom: Nope. View is the base class so be it a Button, ImageButton, etc, they can still be assigned to View... :).
[G1 Android Development] camalot:
did you call

setContentView(R.layout.main);

before your findViewById?
[G1 Android Development] Wysie:
Camalot i understand thats the usual approach but in this case the content view is already set by the constructor in the code. I will give your advice a shot later, but i will be really confused if it works. Thanks!
[G1 Android Development] Wysie:
I found the bug. It's because the layout in use was contacts_list_item_photo.xml and not contacts_list_item. *smacks head*

Thanks for the input guys :)!

You need a registry editor.

I use http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/index.php?lang=en which is free.

Load on your pc and it uses ActiveSync to connect.

Remember to use its tool "unlock registry" to allow changes.

Also backup your registry with this editor before changes !

[HD2 General] deepcoveruk:
OK, so I probably did something stupid, but I was messing around with the opera mobile 10 beta and installed the auto rotation cab only to find that the rotation for the default opera 9.7 stopped working, so I removed the rotation cab and it didn't fix it :(

I then reinstalled the cab for opera 10 auto rotation, only to find that now it doesn't work in opera 10 either!

Is there any way to fix this as the only browser I have now with auto rotation is internet explorer. What registry keys do I need to fix?
[HD2 General] TML1504:
i've noticed that the "background for all tabs" would also break the rotation function in opera. did you install this tweak? if yes, remove it!

I just got an SX66 and my current carrier is AT&T. I put my SIM card in the SX66 and cant get it to make any calls what so ever. Any Ideas please?

Windows Mobile v 4.21.1088 (Build 15005.1.2.1)

ROM 1.33.10 WWE

Radio: 1.02.10

Thanks!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
welcome to the forum!

could you describe your problem a little further? is the sim card rejected, then you might want to sim unlock your device, a tool for that can be found here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Unlock_Sim
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] bobtheogre:
The phone does not reject the SIM. It just wont connect to the AT&T network. Ive tried the unlocker and it dosnt work since the it recognizes the SIM. Ive seen everyone unlocking it for other services, but no one for AT&T so far.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] jdc:
Umm, last I looked, the unlocker programs don't care about the carrier you are on or trying to use, unless you are trying to lock the phone to a specific carrier.

The SX66 was originally sold by AT&T, so you shouldn't need to unlock it, unless someone locked it to another carrier.

Basic steps (not trying to insult anyone here):

Are you sure it's an SX66?

Does the SIM work any other phones? Which ones?

When you put your SIM in the phone and boot it, what does the display show? Any error messages?

Does the aerial icon at the top of the screen show any bars?

Checked the comm manager to make sure the phone isn't starting in airplane mode?

Also, unless I'm remembering incorrectly, that device is using the original OS, you might want to look into upgrading that ROM and radio stack.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] bobtheogre:
I just upgraded the ROM to windows Mobile 6.5, and yes it is a Cingular branded SX66. The SIM card works in my AT&T LG Neon. It searches for the carrier, and just displays the exclamation point next to the antenna. The SIM is a blue and white AT&T card, with 3g on it.

And thanks for all the help.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] jdc:
Hmmm...

Potential issues:

Band coverage: Of the three bands the LG supports, the angel covers them, so non-issue

SIM type: This might be a problem. Mind you, I've not been an AT&T customer in years but I have heard of this kind of thing happening, where the SIM is a 3G-only SIM (not the case here as the LG isn't a 3G phone).

Making some guesses here...

The phone doesn't complain about not being able to read the SIM, but it can't associate with a tower. It might be the SIM just being too new and the angel hardware doesn't quite know how to deal with it. You wouldn't happen to have another SIM to test it with, or know someone with an older SIM or different carrier that you might be able to drop in the SX and see? It is possible that the hardware is just dead, but without other SIMs to test with, it's hard to say.

I know that I had a friend that had an AT&T SIM that went in a 3G phone. He borrowed my old T-Mo 2G Nokia (unlocked, of course) when his AT&T phone was pinched, and the Nokia couldn't deal with the AT&T SIM very well, and wouldn't register on the network.

Have you upgraded to the latest radio available, or is it still running the original? Remember, most ROMs do not have the radio stack as part of the upgrade image, it's a separate process.

(I really should look for parts for my angel and bring it back to full production level for nostalgia if nothing else. :) Sadly, it's got a flashing LED for the charging indicator at the moment, I think the battery I have is truly dead. I will have to look for the spare I had laying around.)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] bobtheogre:
Ok, trying to upgrade the radio to 1.15 and it keeps giving me the ERROR 100: Model ID error. IS it because I upgraded the ROM to WM 6.5? And is there any way I can install the radio ROM with out downgrading?
