[Touch Pro CDMA] bfranker:
Hey Guys,

I don't post here often but have come to these forums trying to figure out why my GPS didn't work. I live in Central Florida and for the past year I've had 4 HTC Touch Pro phones and a Palm Treo Pro. None of them had a working GPS. I had thought I kept getting bad hardware. I then got a Droid about a week ago and the GPS didn't work on that one either. VERY frustrated at this point, I started reading a lot of forums and found that there were MANY people in FL that had Droids and no working GPS. I was on my way to the Verizon store yesterday and for the heck of it, turned on the Droid and GPSTest and found that I instantly had a full screen of sats that were locked on. From that point on I was getting a lock while in a metal building and in a couple houses and everywhere I went! I went to post about this on a Google forum and there were a lot of people in FL posting about how they did this or that and that got their GPS working for the first time. I did NOTHING and mine started working. It appears as though Verizon changed something on the network that FINALLY got all the old GPS "issues" for their Alltel customers resolved. I'm not sure they ever acknowledged it was an "issue" on their end but the GPS works now.

I even ran a little test and took my HTC Touch Pro and Palm Treo Pro (both unactivated with no phone number and what I thought to be a GPS that was broken) and turned them on with GPSTest and both were showing 8 sats with a lock!!!

Anyway, if you are an old Alltel customer in FL and think your GPS is broken, check it again! :D

[General Topics] Tentacle Master:
Im testing some VoIP software for cell phones for my work. I'm currently using a Nokia e71x and a At&T Kaiser/tilt/TyTn II running a nice little ROM I got here (can't remember the name) built on WM 6.5. Any way, in a desperate attempt to measure call quality I would like to call my voice mail and leave a message, then analyze it for pops, clicks that kind of thing. So in order to have a standardized file that I use each time I would like to be able to play an audio file on the phone, preferably the kaiser, and have it stream through the call. That way when I download my voicemail, in .wavs, I can use a program I got to see how the 2 files vary. I would hate to have to hold a voice recorder up to the phone each time.

Or you know of some other way of measuring call quality that would be good too.

thanks in advance,

hi! all,

here’s a question for “experts”:

how can a SD slot be SDIO enabled?

I mean:

is it a question of electronic components onto the motherboard of the slot?

(I’ll have no more problem as far as there’s no solution)

is it relevant with the firmware of the slot?

(I always may ask the manufacturer if he plans any upgrade)

is it a problem of driver for that slot?

(I can look on the web if something can work)

is it a matter of registry?

(I will search for the proper tweak or hack)

WHY THIS QUESTION?

because I would like to use a Toshiba Bluetooth SD card in the SD slot of a netbook

and as I can’t have it working easily, I searched on the web and found those pages at Toshiba website:

http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/?page=faq/bluetoothnotworking

see 3rd section “SD Bluetooth Card works only with Toshiba PDA's.“ leading to ...

http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/?page=toshiba/compatibility-list

see “Bluetooth SD Card 2” in “PC Bluetooth Stack:” section leading to ...

http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/?page=toshiba/sdbt2

thank you for your hints

Laurent
[Off-topic] Rudegar:
would say unless it's a pretty cheap sdreader it would support sdio also

but on pc's I think in most cases you would have to write the driver yourself from scratch
[Off-topic] LpubV:
thanks for your hint Rudegar

BUT you mean driver or firmware?

because driver is the Microsoft Windows generic one:

SD host controller etc. ...

and this driver is supposed to support SDIO function ...

BUT how to activate this???

that's the question

regards

Laurent
[Off-topic] Rudegar:
not firmware

not driver for the sdcard reader

driver for the SDIO card giving access to whatever function it offers

and no a wm driver would not work and

it's not a big chance of too many SDIO card makers make win32 drivers for their devices

Chaps,

Have searched in the Hermes forum but no joy. There is a thread in the Leo forums but it doesn't tell me what I am looking for.

Has anyone successfully used this keyboard on a Hermes? If yes how did you get it to work?

I simply get a blank screen when I tap into it.

Your comments appreciated.

Thanks

Is it WM6.5 only?

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wacky.banana:
Mike,

I don't know is the short answer. I am using WM6.1 and simply assumed that this would work in a 6.xx rom.

I will hop onto their website to see if there is any substance in your theory. Would be surprised if there is as they would be doing themselves out of a significant cut of the market. After all 6.5 only got officially released a few weeks ago!

Thanks for the input though.

Anybody else?

WB

PS: Hmm, you might be right Mike. Their forum seems to suggest that it only works in 6.5. Great keyboard but having to load up 6.5 to run it is not an attractive option.

Pretty loath to destabilise my rock solid stable device. Will have to look for an alternative that is similar in concept.

WB
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jez83uk:
I've got it working no problems on mine. I'm running CRC's 13.4, which is a WM6.1 rom. I am using the QVGA cab from here.

It seems totally stable, and is by far the best keyboard I have come across.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wacky.banana:
Jez,

Thanks a bunch. I managed to find that thread about an hour ago but appreciate the input.

The qvga version works like a charm! Can't believe how quick one can be using this.

Word of warning; will only install onto main memory so make sure you have some space to do so.

Cheers

WB
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Now you've got that solved, I think I'll try it as well:)

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wacky.banana:
Let us know what you think. I love it as you can use it either as a traditional tap keyboard, a slider or both!

Only small issue for me is I make mistakes when I am tired as I can't always remember where the letters are on the querty keyboard as I do the slide (lol). :) :)

This, even though I have been using querty for donkey years :rolleyes: :)

Enjoy.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
Hi all,

My TD2 has started acting very strange when playing music, after 1 to 2 mins it stops when using TF3D music player.

I read some other posts that had a similar problem and followed the fixes but it has not helped me.

My music stops even if the screen is alive (ie on mains adapter)

I tried removing all the htc album art and folder.jpg from the music folders but that has not helped.

I have also checked the micro SD power save settings to see if that was the problem but sadly not.

Im not sure what i should try next except a hard reset (i really do not look forward to restoring all my settings) so i hope you can share some more ideas

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
Just to add this problem is only present when using TF3D music player, but not when using core player
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Cairo_:
join the club

I only have this problem with win6.5

with 6.1 every thing is perfect

u canm use pocket player

it will not turn off the screen when playing but it will only go dim

and it will work good and its power consumption is good
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
I too am using 6.5 and manila 2.5, but im not sure what has been the cause of the problem.

Last week everything was working fine, the only thing ive changed since then is adding some more albums. I have tried removing the new albums but still the problem persists.

Very unusual
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
I just tested this on the ROM in my Sig and am not having this issue.

Perhaps it is ROM related? Are you all on the same ROM?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
im using HG R6 same as you :S
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
Interesting.

Then it would have to be either the way the music is stored, or an issue with your storage card.

I know that with cheaper storage cards, the data transfer rate is less than the higher quality ones.

FWIW, I don't have my music organized, just one folder for Music, sub folder for Praise and Worship Music and a second subfolder for recorded songs from Resco Radio (in case I already have the song in the music folder.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
Thanks for the suggestions.

I tried copying the music to another SD card and the problem persists, so i think it is safe to rule out SD card fault

I have my music arranged on the card the following way

Music folder on root of the card

Inside music folder i have a seperate folder for each album

Inside each album folder there are the MP3's and folder.jpg

My music has been stored like this since i have had the device (since TD2 released in UK) and it has not been a problem before.

I think a hard reset at the weekend may the best solution :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Pete_S:
First, the get-outs. I don't use the HTC player, nor your ROM, nor even WM6.5, so I might be talking crap here. But, perhaps the problem might be corruption of the music database file, specially since it started since you loaded more albums on. I've seen this with other devices (specifically Cowon) before.

The database file seems to be AudioManager_Eng.vol, which is in \Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\

Since you're considering a hard reset anyway, nothing to be lost from deleting this file (if it allows you to, you might have to shut down TF first) and letting the music player recreate it again.

Apologies in advance if a) this has been mentioned elsewhere b) it doesn't apply to WM6.5 any more, and c) it screws up the muisc player!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
Thanks for the suggestion, i deleted the music database and it did no harm

When i launched TF3D music tab it took a while to rebuild the database but sadly it has not remmedied the problem
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Pete_S:
Does music play properly from TD2 internal storage? Might be a clue, if it does.

I know you didn't ask for the suggestion(!), but why not use a good but simple 3rd party app like Nitrogen? It loads very quickly, as though it was a "native" app, you can get skins which are very plain, black, with good album art. And it plays more formats too. I've honestly never been tempted back to the TF3D player since using it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
playing music from internal storage exhibits the same problem

playing music from 3rd party music app (core player) works correctly.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
Getting closer to solving this, i hard reset my phone earlier but the problem persists.

So i delete all my music and add 1 album at a time.

so far no problems

I can only conclude either one of my tracks/albums is corrupted in some way and freezes TF3D when it reads the library OR there is a limit to how big your library can be. mine was over 12gig.

either way im gonna keep adding an album a time, reset phone then test until i find the bad album. when i do i will remove the bad album and try adding another, this should prove if its a size problem or just some bad file.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Cairo_:
Plz keep us informed about ur progress in solving this problem

and No using 3d Pary Programs Like nitrogin or core player doesnt solve the problem
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Pete_S:
If everyone was as methodical, problems would get solved a lot quicker, you must be a scientist

Harking back to my Cowon D2 experience, it took just one album to corrupt the database. It could be badly tagged, or the tags contained accented foreign characters which the player didn't like, and it would freeze the player. It's a pain in the posterior to find out which album is responsible .
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] rumpleforeskin:
Ok i have solved my problem (well found it)

There is 1 album in my collection that causes TF3D to Stop playing music when it tries to add the album to the database.

Im not sure why though!

All the tracks play fine in other players, all the ID3 data is legit and not containing any unusual characters and the bitrate is only 160 so its not too much for the phone to take.

When i get home i will rerip the album to mp3 and have another go.

I hope this thread may be of help to others with this trouble!

lesson here seems to be its not the software causing the problem but the media its trying to play, although the reason is not evident

When i listen to music it stops when the device goes to sleep. How do you keep listen to music when it goes to sleep?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] ozmbie:
I had the same issue a while ago.

Turned out there was one album on my SD card (Lungs, by Florence and the Machine) that was causing the TouchFlo music player to stop playing any song. I removed that album and the problem went away.

I still have the album on my computer, doesn't seem to be anything unusual about it.

Related to the above; has any1 found out wtf happens between it beeing volume control and it beeing prev/next song? it seems to randomly happen, and i keep having to 'reboot' my hd2 to get normal volume in the music tab again, way annoying.

Before some1 asks me what cabs i installed (since the above happens after some installs, at least thats what i read on these forums) i experienced it maybe 5 minutes after unboxing my new phone, so before i modified anything.

Any help/idea/pointing-to-topic appreciated

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetDwarf:
I search for that too and found a registry entry too that seems to activate that in other application but it doesnt work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetDwarf:
Its possible to add them manually.

HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseAPClass there add a key with any name and in this key u create a string value "ClassName" with the correct class name as value (I find them with BsB Tweaks).

HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseEnable2ndUI there add a key with the class name and in there a string value with the name Enable2ndOverlay and the value 1.

e.g. Resco Explorer:

"HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseAPClass\XYZ\ClassName" with the value "RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS"

and

"HKLM\Software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\InhouseEnable2ndUI\RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS\Enable2ndOverlay" with the value "1"
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] IRREAL:
Yes but no landscape support for this function..(only on tab music and some video app that rely on the class-->FullScreenPlayer)..any solution?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] NetDwarf:
Works perfect for me, but maybe if u set the Enable2ndOverlay to 2 instead of 1 it will work, cause the AlbumPlayer also use the 2.

But I really dunno how to set the VolumeOverlay in the ConfettiLockScreen (the ClassName of the LockScreen). An alternative would be to set the volume steps to 1/15 like in the overlay.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Calleh:
Any progress on this front? =) I would love to use the volume as it uses in music tab all over my phone! :D

Hi Guys,

I've been using this phone for about a month now and it truly is one of the best devices I've ever had! I've tweaked and modified it to perfection but, as the title of this thread suggests, the final thing I was hoping for was a way to move the lock-slider to the bottom of the screen when locking/unlocking the phone to make it more finger/hand friendly.

Before I get flamed, I have searched and am looking at this thread at the moment:
