[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] johng75:
ive got the ATT version of the TP2 (HTC Tilt 2) and an HTC belt case (p/n: 70H00191-01M) that i got from Best Buy for $32

problem is, if i lock the unit the turn the screen off, if i set the unit into the case face out and volume buttons down, the unit powers on, unlocks, and goes into landscape mode?

but if i put the unit in face towards the clip and volumn buttons up, it stays off and locked?

could this have something to do with the magnets? ive tested this many times face out, making sure to easily place in in the case, making sure nothing gets pressed or touched, while not even on my belt, and a second after going into the case, not even closing the case the unit powers on, unlocks and then goes landscape??? its really weird. at that point if its actually on my belf and closed, what little moving it does do, changes screens and stuff.:confused:

just wanted to know if anyone else out there is having similiar issues with this or any other cases?

should i be concerned about the magnets being able to cause my phone to go nuts?:confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] adoute:
It is definitely the magnets in the case. The keyboard slide mechanism uses a magnetic switch - the case magnets are making the phone think that you have slid the keyboard open.

There is a registry edit you can do to prevent the keyboard sliding from unlocking the phone. Or, you can just put the phone in the case with the screen towards you, not away - that should stop the magnets from tripping the keyboard slide switch. Or you can do both - which is what I do.

The magnets will not do any harm to your phone. At least that it what I have read, and I have been using my magnetic case for almost 2 months now...

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware\DeviceMap\Keybd]
"SlideWakeup"=dword:00000000
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] johng75:
thanx adoute!

i think ill do both as well, just to be on the safe side...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] woaloo:
Stylus case is also "magnet sensitive" but I don't know if there is a reg key for that...

I got the same problem with a covertec case.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] EtherBoo:
I have the same problem, and yes, it is the stylus.

I've been trying to find a case with no magnets, only to be let down.

The only solution seems to be using Lock Software. I'm considering butchering up my case and taking the magnets out for Velcro instead.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] ajbopp:
I haven't found this registry edit to have any effect at all on my Sprint TP2 from unlocking in the case due to the magnets. In fact. I can lay the phone on the desk with the screen locked, swipe the magnetic case front along the phone, and watch it unlock itself with the registry set this way.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] kmx:
Same thing is happening to my case whenever I have it on lock and put it in the case.

It's so annoying.

Allen,

I can't find this Key anywhere on my phone. Do I add it? Not sure what to do?

Kind Regards,

Jim

yeah, the key (value) has to be added... once its added your all good ta go!

you can use any regedit software, i use taskmgr 3.1, and drill down to the Keybd, then add the value

New Case

Just a heads up..I'm not sure if all Best Buys have changed it or if its just a local thing but the one I work at has a new case. Same sku number and model number but a different design all together. I exchanged the old case for this new one and don't seem to be having the same issue. Hope this helps!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] alanrichey:
Rob_Wing thanks. The new HTC case w/magnets does not wake up and unlock the TP2 like the older case pictured above. I've even tried running the magnet across the corner and bottom edge where the magnetic switch is and could not get it to wake it up. Don't know why this case doesn't wake it up, but it doesn't. Fits well and is cushioned better than the older one.

PS Just check it again and find that the magnets are two button magnets instead of the magnetized bar in the old case. The button magnets are weaker, but when mated with the button magnets in the flap hold closed strongly. Also, they are located in from the side, thus not coming close enough to activate the switch.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories] Robert's PDA:
I see a lot of these postings, & I've got to say this: You should ALWAYS place your phone in ANY case with the screen side facing you anyway. The antenna on these phones are on the back (on the TP2 right below the camera). You don't want that radiation going towards you anyway do you?

I have a T-Mobile (GSM) HTC Touch Pro 2 and would like to use it with Sprint (CDMA) service. Can I do this and what do I need to do to allow this to happen?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] 6666:
unfortunately you can not do this as it is a hardware difference not a software diff
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ryotgz:
You would need to either buy or maybe trade someone for the CDMA version. Different hardware inside.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ASK768:
Hey guys, i was wondering if theres a way to force the alarm to snooze if the user doesnt respond to it in a minute. Im sure my device used to do it but i have since changed ROMs and it no longer does. I tried searching around but couldnt find anything relevant.

thanks
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ASK768:
nvm, i must have screwed something up, a hard reset seemed to fix it.

Mods feel free to close this thread
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmace:
anyone know if I can?

really don't fancy re-installing all my apps and setting them all up again (by doing a format/wipe and starting again)

I get a force close every time I open Browser

any ideas?

thanks

I am using the latest Cyanogen ROM
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shagge68:
To get it right you'll probably have to wipe but you might be able to adb pull the current Browser out and the adb push a new 1 in. I doubt that that will work though.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fastludeh22:
I would redl cm zip incase it has corrept browser in urs somehow. The on comp type in cmd:

Adb remount

Adb push "location of new browser.apk" /system/app (no ")

Adb sh reboot

In term on phone:

Su (allow)

Rwsystem

Cp /sdcard/"location of browser.apk" /system/app

Rosystem

Reboot
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pinesal:
Have you tied going to app settings and clearing the data for the browser? This usually fixes browser force close.

I would like to ask, when I used Jays Mini USB to 3.5mm jack reduction (link) and headphones, will be working FM radio?

PS: Sorry for my bad english :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] cubie.HTC:
As long as your HTC mobile is connected with an audio cable, it will work. I use the jack made by HTC and connect to a stereo amp., it works very well.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kennyidaho:
It seems that a lot of companies are really taking advantage of twitter to communicate with customers at large. Some examples are Verizon and HTC announcing the Eris OS update, Sprint has announced items via twitter. Lot's of people follow these companies and I am sure that these companies search twitter for references to there name.

So I propose that we use the power of twitter to send a clear message to Sprint that we would like an Android 2.0.1 update and that we would like some sort of news confirming it. We don't need exact deadlines but just knowing that it's coming would be great news for the community. It would also benefit Sprint in the long run because potential and current customers would have a little bit more faith in buying a Hero at 179.99 knowing that it will be getting an update.

I am going to post this to a few other Sprint/Hero related forums. Everyone can start twitting now or we can try to get some clear defined message written out that we can all retweet. Please post any thoughts, inputs or messages that you have twitted @Sprint.

My twitter ID is kennyidaho.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] flipzmode:
You do know that HTC announced we would be getting 2.x on Twitter about a month ago, right? ;)

http://twitter.com/htc/statuses/5243593307
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
Flipz beat me to it.

I was googling for the article where HTC Confirmed it. They wouldn't bother with the update for CDMA Hero if Sprint wasn't going to give it to us. It costs them too much money to build an OS/Rom for a phone just in case Sprint ever asks for it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kennyidaho:
Yes but nobody knows for sure if this applies to CDMA Hero's (we do know that it applies to GSM Hero's because of the leaked ROM - is there any proof a CDMA rom has been created?). HTC control's the update process on GMS Hero's, however Sprint has to request and push an update to Sprint Hero's. HTC is primarily a GSM manufacture and will cater to those devices first.

Assuming that HTC's announcement regarding Android 2.0 applies to carrier branded devices is as naive as assuming that the successor to the Hero (to be announced in February) applies to Sprints Hero.

Trust me I would like to hope it's true. Having Sprint and HTC devices in the past I know that just because HTC updates it's GSM equivalent it does not always indicate CDMA devices will receive the update (or will be updated in a timely manner).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] BrianDigital:
Well if its been confirmed well what's the harm of twittering Sprint
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
No harm...

Just seems like a waste, one way or another we will have a 2.1 update.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kennyidaho:
Myself and I am sure many others grow tired of the waiting game with these devices. In the end the main goal really is to see sprint open up a little bit.

If Sprint has ordered the update, if it's in testing and is slated to be released sometime first quarter 2010 then what's the harm in telling us? Verizon can notify it's customers that their Droid Eris, which is basically the same phone as the Hero, is getting updated - Sprint can take that risk too!

Right now Verizon is blitzing the media with Droid this Droid that, update this update that. What's sprint doing? A 5 second mention on a commercial also advertising the Pre and Tour?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ersocia:
just saying, in the time it took you to type that out and post it here, you could just as easily have tweeted something to sprint about getting the update.

how are you so absolutely positive that we'll get it? do you know something the rest of us don't?

all i'm saying is that it's not a waste to tell them what you want, whether or not you already know you're going to get it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
I agree totaly. We make huge investments in these devices, especially those of us who don't get them by signing a new contract. Personally I have to have the coolest gadget on the market, its my kryptonite. To that note also, Sprint does have the best service converage and price in my area. So I can't afford necessarrily to go else where. Damned if you do Damned if you don't. We are at the mercy of the phone company and until we get the portablity openness in the U.S. that our European counterparts have, we are stuck with what we get.

That being said, the Devs on this forum and else where make the phone what its worth, not Sprint. Luckily in our case, "There is always someone smarter than you". Meaning Sprint can hold out all they want, we will get ours eventually. I am sure we can yell and scream and cause a fuss, but I don't see the merit behind it. Kind of like getting upset with the Customer Serivce reps at sprint when we call to ask the status of the update, you can yell at them all day long and nothing will get accomplished other than making them pissed and ruining their day.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] BrianDigital:
Just Twitter don't be upset just ask nicely, what id they respond back with next week. Then the debate can hold off on thief build and relax
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
Gah, I even went out and made a twitter account for you guys. Now knowing I have a twitter account gives me the chills... I feel like a 'myspace' person now. :eek:

@sprint and @htc right???

@kcarpenter5407
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] BrianDigital:
Hey Twitter is nothing like having a MySpace account, granted most people mis use by updating about nothing. I follow cnn, some journalist that I like and some online stores and ESPN plus a couple sports teams. Which has Me do less surfing cause all the info comes straight to me

If u decide to give Twitter a try may I suggest if you find someone intresting follow them and check out who they are following
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] freebirds87:
I don't see any harm in this... I'm going to twitter Sprint here in a few

[HD2 General] santoshkp:
guys,

i am from topaz and artemis forum...i am actually planning to buy leo...

any body in india had a feel of it..

any suggestions.?
[HD2 General] dnwizard:
How about the Copilot GPS navigator? Does it have maps for India?

Also, did you get any screen protector for the phone?
[HD2 General] Jibreil:
I suggest SatNav or MapMyIndia are the best GPS software out there for India, it covers practicallly every Road w/Road name and ALL the possible POI's.

Agree with khanvis2009 its a great phone overall. I purchased my N900 from New York and used it for a month - inevitably a revolutionary phone but the weak battery life disappointed me. After having switched to HD2, I'vent had a moment of disappointment since then.
[HD2 General] restrict:
Does Mapmyindia works on HD2?
[HD2 General] beebrox:
It is a great phone. I have used two other models (Jasjam/Tytn, touch etc) in the past, but HD2 is very fast and extremely responsive so far. I am loving my HD2. I can now read ebooks and actually browse and surf comfortably.

It does have some glitches though. Once in a while I have noticed that touch screen stops responding and needs a hard reset. Hopefully the next ROM takes care of these issues.
[HD2 General] santoshkp:
thanks for the response.....i heard its exclusive on docomo......did you people buy from docomo....or from retailer?:D
[HD2 General] dnwizard:
Docomo is selling the HD2 exclusively for 7 days. Retailers will get the phone tomorrow. Just confirmed with a local retailer in Cochin. Going to get one...!
[HD2 General] blackheart2925:
i have already planned out which bank to loot!!! :D phone costs a crazy amount of money...as much as a decent laptop:eek: but what to do am in love...:p
[HD2 General] santoshkp:
I called up HTC CC they said it will be avaliable in retailer on 24th.Let me know if you get it tomorrow.:cool:
[HD2 General] dnwizard:
Will surely let you know. As per the agreement btw HTC and Docomo, the exclusive sale should end tomorrow. Also the guy from retail store was pretty sure that he would get the stock tomorrow.

By the way, are you from kerala?
[HD2 General] santoshkp:
i have booked...will be receving in another 2hrs.....curious to unpack it....:)
[HD2 General] dnwizard:
How did you book it? My retailer told that it would take another 2-3 days for the stock to arrive.:(
[HD2 General] stargator:
I played with the HD2 in DOCOMO store in Chennai and I must say I am impressed.

The phone is really fast and responsive and feels solid that the Touch HD that I have now. Battery cover in HD is very thin and always creaks when U try to increase volume or just hold it tight.

Albums , Music tabs all seem to work faster than my HD.

Had my wife along with me and she also said the phone feels and operates much smoother (She has an iphone ) so coming from iphone user that is good comment indeed.

Cost is 37,000 including VAT in DOCOMO but already there is a retailer in Chennai who is listing the phone for 36,000 inc VAT.

Google for - UNIVERCELL -

If only I can get a good price for my Touch HD I will without doubt be changing over to HD2.

lets see...:D
[HD2 General] santoshkp:
Its from PDA Cafe...He confirmed me it will be avaliable at 2:00Pm. I booked it..He delivered to Home.

Lovely amazing experience...:)

It costed me Rs 36200/- + 4 % vat
[HD2 General] vinayak89:
its already available in new delhi.... i purchased hd2 on 17th dec for Rs 35200 from an authorised htc dealer.... all i can say its the best phone available today... i dont have words to describe its greatness...hd2 is better than all its competitors like nokia n900,iphone 3gs,sony xperia x10,samsung omnia 2 or LG bl40... but its only weakness is poor battery backup... otherwise its most awesome phone undoubtedly!!!
[HD2 General] restrict:
Can u tell where in delhi is it available. me too wanna buy one
[HD2 General] Athar Mansoor:
Why does it always cost more here in Pune..

Any ways.. am coughing up 38K.. dealers say should be with him by evening today..

Can't wait to get my hands on it..

Any body has any news on AirTel GPRS packages that I can get with this phone.. like the one's we had for Hero and Diamond.

Cheers..

[HD2 General] restrict:
Also to owners in India. What are you people doing to protect your screens. As in if you buying any screen protectors etc.
[HD2 General] blackheart2925:
^^ i got the screen protector (Martin Fields) even before i got the phone...:D

but guys tell me something, any of of you buying here in India noticed the hardware defects which are there or the other jitter and other problems?
[HD2 General] vinayak89:
yes even i have the same problem ...i cant find screen protector for hd2...so im thinking of ordering a official htc hd2 screen protector on the internet
[HD2 General] phreaker18:
i got this phone on the 16th of December from an authorized HTC dealer for 36k with a screen protecter ... fits well .... extremely strong build and as someone reported there r no creeks of the battery cover ... the only issue which might pose a problem is the battery life ... but i believe with every new ROM they r addressing that issue .... over all quitely brilliant phone !!
[HD2 General] PG101:
To all my desi friends using this phone..

Just wanted to clarify a couple of things:

1. What is the ROM it is being shipped with?

2. Memory card?

3. SMS issue - lag while sending/ or while opening the inbox?

4. Incall volume too high or low?

5. Battery performance?

I have been following a number of threads on XDA (generally what I do before posting a message or buying a phone :D)

Would be great if I could get some insights.. am plg to buy his over christmas weekend. Have my HTC HD now... quite reluctant to let it go :) :)

Thanks
[HD2 General] blackheart2925:
yeah and how can you make a blanket statement like that??? Do you read the forums...the sms issue is already there, one of the threads has an Indian guy making the first post...other than the camera pink thing, other hardware issues dont know yet but why should it be any different here? it sounds like major manufacturing bugs...
[HD2 General] restrict:
where in delhi have the owners bought their phones?
[HD2 General] PG101:
I have a feeling that the sms issue and call issue is there..
[HD2 General] fearfactory:
Awesome !!

The HD2 is simply the most advanced and best piece of GSM wizadry out there.

I picked it up from chennai for about 37000 with Bill. Although I was having second thoughts about it before i bought it..........after i opened the box it was love at first sight.

Extremely fast response [1ghz snapdragon proc] and a joy to use [capacitive huge screen].

Have not had any issues like the sms lag or any others [touch wood].

THE CASE: why don't you guys try the PDA air cases, they're really good and have free shipping. DO NOT try using magnetic cases....might mess up the compass workings.

SCREEN PROTECTOR: your right. HD2 does not need one.....if I'm right. I read somewhere that it has a scratch proof screen .....like the iPhone..

Cheers..
[HD2 General] fearfactory:
Earpiece crackling noise

Anybody experience a crackling noise in the earpiece of the phone ??

The conversation does not sound all that clear.
[HD2 General] PG101:
Hi guys, I still feel that the screen protector would be good in the long run... anyway.. not an expert on capacitive screens... have always used resistive..

Fearfactory? are you from India? If so, the noise problem is in India as well? What about the delay in SMSes? Are you on 1.43 or 1.48ROM.. which one is shipped? what about the memory card?

Thanks guys... i love my Blackstone.. so am doing all possible before I go in for my Leo
[HD2 General] Jibreil:
Tested it yesterday, runs fine but fails to connect to the GPS
[HD2 General] Jibreil:
To all who have been worried about applying a screen protector, I suggest you dont need to rush in to call for one from abroad. The phone comes with a very strong scratch proof screen. There are a couple of videos on YouTube where the screen is deliberately scratched using objects such as keys etc. But there is not a single noticable scratch visible on the screen.
[HD2 General] blackheart2925:
that seems to be there on all HD2 phones...read the Leo forums.

@fearfactory - is it possible to post a sound clip where the crackling noise is heard? and how bad is it? and is it there during earpiece and speakerphone conversations or one case only? and how clear is the conversation to the other person?

some info on this would be a great help!
[HD2 General] PG101:
Hi Jibreil,

Do you feel crackling in the sound while in call?? also are there the sms lags as discussed in the forums?

I see that you are using 1.61.. is it the one shipped? Where did you get your HD2?
[HD2 General] blackheart2925:
hey there, so how does the Blackstone hold up compared to the HD2? did it have these teething hardware problems out of the box?
[HD2 General] PG101:
Hi... i have had the blackstone since Feb 2009 (probably the longest I have ever had a phone)

Can safely say.. NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER... Although I am using a cooked ROM.. had used the stock for a few months... it was all brilliant... a few problems are always there.. for e.g. the sound initially was low (like in the diamond) but registry tweaks worked a charm.

Now am eyeing the Leo.. but seems there are too many persistent problems.. so am now on the forums..
[HD2 General] dnwizard:
Did you try Mapmyindia iNav Loaded or Mobile Maps?
