when you plug it in, you can tell it to connect as a drive device, that makes your storage card a flash drive. Otherwise, it is normal for the device to not have a drive letter, as it is not a drive, but a device.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] biobas69:
thanks for the reply.

but thats ok for accessing the storage card but what about the phone memory itself.

for example cfc gui, once loaded asks for location of manila files, but it is unable to browse the phones internal mem.

this phone does some wierd things when connected to the pc. sometimes it locks itself out of its own program files, but when you detach from the pc everything works normal again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] KobrakaiMM:
Hello,

I'm a normal PDA/Smartphone user. I get most of the basic uses of the phone.

I updated my rom several times, changed radio, etc.

BUT! I don't get all these connection types.

I have a Diamond. I can connect to the internet with it. I always use Wi-Fi. I don't have internet from my provider, but i CAN use it. This comes at a shocking cost though.

I wanted to disable this, so I can only connect to Wi-Fi.

Then I found out that this was rather difficult. You have so many types of connections that I got lost.

GSM, GPRS, EDGE, HSDPA, HSUPA, 2G, 3G, 3.5G.............

Can some one, please clear this up for me?

What connection am I using and how do I stop it.

Feel like I am banging my head against a brick wall! I have a dell vostrol 1220 (with windows 7 home premium) and I managed to connect my Touch HD to the computer with bluetooth with no problems at all. I could use the computer to listen to music from the phone etc. However the hard drive went on my dell and was replaced. I have installed all the necessary drivers and spent days looking at internet forums and tried just about everything and can still not get the connection to work as before.

It seems that the problem is that the computer cannot download a peripheral device driver for the phone. My guess is that the computer is not picking up the full phone settings (all the phone is visible) and so can then not find a suitable driver, although I might be wrong.

Anyone got any ideas, this is so frustating as it used to work ok.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pcibob:
I had a great little app on my Touch Diamond that enabled Bluetooth whenever it was on external power (great for linking to the car bluetooth headset). However, it doesn't seem to work on the HD2.

Having searched the forum, I found this update:

http://www.kixass.net/bluepower/

but again, it doesn't seem to work on the HD2.

I know I can create a front screen button to turn on bluetooth, but I will forget to turn it off when I leave the car, and drain the battery (senility :-) )

Anyone help ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mouki_9:
did you install .net cf 3.5 on your hd2??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pcibob:
One of the first things I did !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] eskasi:
Interesting app... did you change the settings to ensure that your HD2 uses net cf3.5 at all times? I remember that there were some registry settings that needed to be made to make sure it does not revert back to 2.0 even after installing 3.5
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pcibob:
Thanks for the suggestions mouki and eskasi.

Used netcfcfg to ensure 3.5 is used by default (and overidden for the application), but still no joy.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] eskasi:
I tried this on a Topaz running a Leo based ROM... no joy too... I suspect its because of WM6.5.... Was your Diamond running a WM6.5 ROM or 6.1?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pcibob:
It was 6.1. I did upgrade to 6.5 when I was messing about with it, but didn't test this app, before I reverted to 6.1.

Maybe Kixass, or some more competent techie than me is lurking, and will see this post, and amend bluepower for 6.5
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] aussiebum:
Maybe it's because the HD2 uses the broadcom Bluetooth Stack, like the Touch Pro2 does, and apparently it's not a proper implementation compared to the original MS Bluetooth drivers and therefore some bluetooth apps break (like BlueInput.. -_-). I think the Topaz and the Blackstone don't use broadcom and so it isn't broken.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mouki_9:
are there other solutions to this? I would also like to have the bluetooth on when the phone is on power...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cybrasty:
Hi,

I searched the forums but haven't found sufficient information on the comparison between hero and cyan roms.

I am using Cyan since day i've got mu G1 (which was about a month) and I'm happy with it. Had some problems with sat-nav due to 1.6 firmware, but otherwise, the phone does (and looks thanks to enoch) what I want.

But...

I hear (read) that hero has better music player and flash support. Also, HTC pdf viewer is better than any other pdf viewer alivaible right now (very important for me, I read a lot of OCRed and picture-scan pdfs, thinkfree pdf doesn't handle the scans very well).

I would like to hear your opinion on both roms. How good are the exlusive apps on HERO, is it fast on G1, whats the battery drain? What about google-nav or google-goggles on hero? Is the gui so much better (liked manila on WiMo)?

Some of you will say that i'll better flash and see myself, but i prefer to do research before i do something like that.

Thanks in Advance,

p.s Also, I'm using apps2sd, how can I backup my entire phone, as nandroid backups only stuff on handset.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Binary100100:
Apples vs Oranges.

I use both roms frequently and the difference of the two is vast.

Cyanogen Rom's

Have bluetooth

Fast!

Stable!

Running 1.6 firmware with a pinch of 2.0

No flash

GUI is meh

Hero (depending on which rom)

Flash! (only Flash 9)

Better UI

More social options integrated (such as twitter, facebook, etc)

SLOWER THAN STOCK ROM (my opinion)

May require a reboot when it gets laggy

No bluetooth

No homescreen orientation

Running on 1.5 firmware

Note... I'd hate to say it though... if you said that you can't find anything in your searches then I would not recommend trying Hero. It requires steps that may brick your phone. If you're not competent enough to find the answers above then you are likely not qualified to use Hero. I don't mean to be a jerk about it and I am not trying to flame you... I'm just trying to give you the cold, hard truth before you end up with a $200+ piece of garbage.

But... hey... who am I to say? It's yours to lose.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmw407:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uansari1:
You can backup your "entire phone", which I'm assuming consists of your phones memory and the ext partition of your SD card, using Amon_RA's latest Recovery. It's very easy to restore that way if you're trying different ROMs and want to switch back and forth. I have a "base" image of Dwang's ROM with all the apps I run and set the way I like, which I've backed up this way. I've tried a couple of Hero/Sense ROMs, other Donut/Eclair ROMs, and have been able to restore back to Dwang's within 5 minutes.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legend221:
Tried Hero and it was way too slow for my liking.

Cyanogen is a total win over other roms from my experience.

I'm anxious to see a Hero rom run as fast and efficient as a Cyanogen Rom one day.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cybrasty:
Thanks for all your answers!

From what I read - I will stay with cyan. I prefer speed over eyecandy, flash 10 is coming next year to android. And... I like my gimmicks from 1.6 and some apps for show off (google goggles kills iPhone users :P)

The pdf random answer was also appreciated! (unfortunately beam reader is too slow for my liking, thinkfree is much faster, yet dosn't handle the scans very well - OCR are ok. I'm still on a quest to find something as fast as foxit for WiMo).

I will check Amon_Ra's backup, also interested to see how well the gods know their coding (amon Ra was Egyptian god of sun i think)

Hi Guys,

I've had this phone for about a month now and am absolutely loving it but I've got a slight problem. I recently had to do a hard reset due to a problem with Sense not launching. I restored all of my settings and files with MyPhone and all is working well, except, I can't find the screen calibration tool (not the G-Sensor) or the screen to select the themes anymore. Unless I'm completely crazy and can't remember how to navigate to them, it seems the hard reset my have removed them.

Are there any 3rd party calibration apps, as my screen is a little unresponsive and/or is there a cab for the original calibration app that I can install? A theme app would be nice too but the calibration is the most important thing primarily. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

If you want Fring (available version) on Leo you need:

1. Download fring for vga device (like Touch Dimond) from fring.com and install it

2. Disable HTC Sense (Settings - Menu- All settings - ToDay -elements - Unchek HTC Sense).

3. Tap MS button - start fring - setup your account and connect

4. Enable HTC Sense ( Settings - Menu- All settings - ToDay - Chek HTC Sense)

You need to do this steps after reset or power on your Leo

nothing happens when you click the fring icon (installed via sms).

disable htc sense, then started fring, configured it and then turn on htc sense and all work ok.

i did not switch of the phone nor did i close fring and checked whether i need to do the above every time when i switch off the phone and start again or close fring.

seems to be a solution which is better than nothing

Hey,

I have a couple of problems. I tried upgrading the SPL to Haykuro's latest and it soft bricked my phone. I had to go back to cyan 4.0.4 and upgrade to 4.2.7.1 in order to get back to normal. I then tried Drizzy's hero rom and wiped my ext using amon-ra recovery (the installation guide informed me to wipe). This effectively deleted all my apps (luckily i have reware) and the installation of the hero rom didn't work.

I then went back to cyan's rom and everything appeared fine until i went to the market to install my apps again and both buttons (install/uninstall) are grayed out for every app. (like i said, lucky i backed up with reware). However I'm not that lucky as reware doesn't have every app i backed up, i'd say it's missed out about 10%. Is there a way I can delete these from my device completely and reinstall as I can't do it from the market as it thinks I already have them (sort of).

Also, with cyan's latest rom (the guy is goooood!) I'm having problems when I press home on my dream.. it craps itself and sits there with a black screen for about 5 seconds before displaying the background with no icons for another 5 seconds and then the apps filter down. This happens quite a lot and it never used to. Is anyone else seeing this? (this was the reason I wanted to try Drizzy's rom).

Any help with both of these would be much appreciated.
