Just in case anyone else has this problem, I sync'd my phone, ordered all the contacts in Outlook by "Created" date and then deleted the ones created by the Facebook link. Weirdly, the links were instantly transferred to the correct contacts and life can once again go on as we know it.

Thanks to bzdemes for the reply.

it happened for me too. not all the fb contact where duplicated but just some.. random... well i don't know why but i've deleted one (the one not linked).

Anyone who bought new housing parts from Ebay and changed already? I'm wondering what quality it is on this low priced parts. Here in Sweden, a battery cover is about $30 compared to what you get on Ebay for that amount, a complete cover (touch screen excluded).

My phone is a year now and has scratches all over. With another year on my contract left i thought I should do a refurbish and also put on a Invisible Shield ( http://www.invisibleskinz.com/ ) for another happy X1 year.

Thanks, A.D

Hi,

i'm trying to find the program "Modem Link" that appears to come with the Verizon version of the Rhodium. Does anyone have a cab file for this one? (I could so far only find a version from the Hermes, which doesn't work)

No, i dont want to use Internet Sharing, as the goal is to use the Rhodium as a USB Modem under Windows, but not for Internet access.

Can anyone help? :)

WMDC does not work with Outlook beta 2010 64bit

As my subject says... WMDC will not work with the 64bit beta version of Outlook 2010. Its the 64bit that is the issue.

This is an OLD issue and its been around since the first 64bit Outlook 2010 was 'released'.

Office 2010 is slated for release in June 2010... so Microsoft has plenty of time to either fix the issue with WMDC and 64bit Outlook OR release an entirely new sync'ing product (at MIX10 which is being held in March 2010 and thats where Windows Mobile 7 will be debuted)

[EDIT] Just to make it totally clear...

WMDC *will* sync with Outlook 2010 32bit running on Windows 7 32bit

WMDC will *not* sync with Outlook 2010 64bit running on Windows 7 64bit

This is a well known problem with multiple so-called "fixes" none of which work for me. I've tried all of these fixes and WMDC can't sync with any of my HTC phones - including the TYTN, Polaris or HD2.

I'm using Windows 7 x64 with Outlook 2007. I don't think it's an outlook problem, its a Windows 7 driver problem as I can't seem to get the drivers to install properly.

Hi, i am not a technical but i searched the net and i found the following solution :

WMDC wouldnt even run or Install, i should say, even though there was a setting portion in Control panel for it.

I found a article about how It wont run without running windows media player first. ( fresh Install and never ran it yet) So I went to run it only to find out It didnt exist.

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate N which didnt have any Media Software included. ( Didnt know that) So, I downloaded the whole media pack and installed. then I ran media player once and Voila! All the phone drivers installed properly, WMDC Installed properly, Phone connected and sync'd.

Synchronization of Win7 PC and HTC HD2 finally works...

After lots of frustration trying to synchronize my HD2 with my new WIN 7 PC, experimenting and using active sync in faster or slower sync. data transfer mode, changing USB connections etc. I could just not make it work.

But at the end I found a way to make it work. (Step by step procedure further down)

Here are my systems:

PC: Intel core i7, X980, 9GB Ram, Win 7 home premium 64 bit, German. MS Office suite plus 2010 EN,

Programs: Win Mobile Device Center and Win Mobile Device Center Driver Update installed (will be seen when going to uninstall in the Control Panel)

HD2: latest German ROM upgrade (version 5.2.21913 2010-10-19)

Here is what I did

1- delete all partnerships on the PC (Prog. Windows Mobile Device Center WMDC)

2- delete all partnerships on the HD2 (active Sync)

3- turn off and restart PC and HD2 - without being connected

4- open WMDC on PC

5- Establish USB connection (cable) between the PC and the HD2

6- Select Connect to Mobile unit without establishing a partnership

7- Double click Computer and look up the HD2 at the end of the list. Right click and rename, to give proper name, (I used HTC HD2)

remark: Step 6 and 7 may not be necessary or relevant, I just include it because I did did it this way.

9- after turning off and restarting both units again, open the WMDC on the PC and reconnect the cable. This time select Establish a new Partnership

10- Uncheck all synchronization items (WMDC > Settings > synchronization settings)

11- unplug connection cable on, go to HD2 >Tools > active Sync > Menu >Options

and make sure that all items are unchecked - (I had to remove several ticks.)

12. Turn HD2 off and on again re-establish connection between both units.

After waiting a while for establishing connection (<1min) you should see on the WMDC a green check mark as well as a note Last synchronization at... That means the connection and synchronization of nothing :) has worked.

13- turn off, disconnect the cable, and turn on again, reconnect the cable - to verify that the connection and synchronization (of nothing :)) works.

14- disconnect the cable and change the synchronization settings. Check Contacts (tick mark)

on BOTH the PC and the HD2.

15- reconnect the connection cable. Wait it may take some time to synchronize but if everything is ok

you should have the contacts synchronized in both the PC and the HD2.

15- verify that all changes in contacts are synchronized in both directions. If it works you will probably be as happy as I was :)

16- include further synchronization items e,g, Calendar, Email accordingly. .. enjoy

Hope I haven't forgotten something important and it works for you as well...

I have just bought the MS office 2010 professional plus and I have also just bought a new LEnovo Edge PC which is 64 bit.

I downloaded the Office software from software4Students for £38!! Bargain a- and the downloads included a 32 Bit and 64 bit version of Office 2010.

After spending a few hours downloading and then installing the 64 bit version I discover that not only does the 64 bit version not synch with my HTC HD2 but it wiped everything off it!!! I thankfully had a .pst file on another computer so all is not lost.

It is very frusttrating that MS do not keep all things compatible across the board and I am now going to have to uninstall the 64 bit version and then install the 32 bit version. Apparently all that is needed is to install the 32 bit version of outlook but I cant do that with this download - I have to install the whole of MS Office 32 bit version - lovely - thanks a lot Microsoft.

THis is their official statement from their website in an artcile which covres the 64 bit editions of office 2010

Http :// technet.microsoft.com / en-us/library/ee681792.aspx[/

"Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) synchronization WMDC does not synchronize with Microsoft Outlook 2010 if you use the 64-bit version of Outlook 2010. In such cases, an error message displays that states that there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging. WMDC synchronizes correctly with the 32-bit version of Outlook 2010. To synchronize a Windows Phone with Outlook 2010 by using Windows Mobile Device Center, uninstall Outlook 2010 64-bit. Then use the original installer that you used to obtain Outlook 2010 64-bit to install Outlook 2010 32-bit. Outlook 2010 32-bit is the default option.

SPB wallet sync option causing failure of WMDC syncing.

I had the same problem with my HTC HD2, windows 7 ultimate 32 bit and Outlook 2007 32 bit. The HTC would show connected via WMDC screen but would not sync. An unknown error without any details in the error window was always the result.

This functionality had been working in the past on the same PC with same OS and apps. I have recently done a fresh install of win7 and all apps.

Problem was solved when I deleted the profile (association) on both PC and HTC, and then reconnected the USB cable and configured the association as per normal but also deactivated the sync option for SPB wallet (which I had installed recently on the fresh win7 install). It's possible that trying to sync the SPB wallet file from PC to HTC causes the error due to the SPB wallet being securely encripted. Syncing the SPB wallet file must be done from inside the SPB windows app.

I also noticed a difference in the syncing screen status bar before and after I executed windows media player for the first time after my fresh win7 OS install. So if my solution does not work for you, then first try executing windows media player with the HTC connected to the USB. The connection should show up in WMP in the syncing window and possibly some drivers get loaded at this point that are needed for the physical connection between HTC and PC. Then repeat my above solution.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Guys

I just played around little with video recording capability's of HD2 and realized that recorded video has too low 15fps at 640x480 resolution & MPEG4. With hardware spec like HD2 has, it shouldn't be a problem to record video at higher frame rate (25/30fps).

Did some of you managed to tweak it to record video at 25/30fps at 640x480 resolution & MPEG4 format?

Thanks ahead for feedback
[HD2 General] padlad:
You are lucky to get that, when indoors with average lighting, I get approx 12fps. You need nice and bright lighting to get good fps, I agree these HD2s should be capable of more, a big disappointment.
[HD2 General] mistic:
I just realized that frame rate really depends on the lightning condition of the room. I would expect that picture quality would drop if there is not enough light (with introduction of artifacts like noise) but surely frame rate should remain constant.Or?
[HD2 General] DMAND:
Frame rate obviously decreases in low light to let more light in, otherwise you could have a high frame rate with a very dark picture.

Daytime looks like 24fps

Actually I tried both SlideIT and Shapewriter and found that there is really no comparison. I find SlideIT far better, especially regarding French language.

Most of the time the words suggested by Shapewriter were not the right ones.
