I have a Sprint TP2 with Telenave, IGO8, Garmin, Google Maps, and TomTom installed. All of them work. Some have more lag than others but they all work nontheless. I have a 16 gig card that has them all.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Sweet Lowdown:
multiple gps

you should be able to run as many gps apps as you want.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] pappy42:
How did you get the Garmin App to work on your 16 gig card? I don't mind paying Garmin for the app/maps, but switching cards is deal breaker for me.

[HD2 Accessories] Mr_Panda:
Hi guys i have seen a few different posts about the extended battery with the lager cover and came across this site i dont know if it has already been posted already because i cant find it so if double post to this site sorry if not may be of interest

http://www.easydevices.co.uk/products.asp?partno=BATHTCHD2EX&model=

i have never ordered from this site but for a battery with nearly 2x the power storage for £14.98 + post seems a pretty good deal to me will be Pre Ordering and will post a mini review of the battery once I have had it going for a day or 2
[HD2 Accessories] digimaz:
Nice find. I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in this. Any idea what the battery cover is made of? I'm spoilt by the metal cover already.
[HD2 Accessories] lude219:
The official HTC extended battery is downright ugly. Though if you don't care about the aesthetic look of your phone, having 2200mAh does sound good.
[HD2 Accessories] Mr_Panda:
am not too sure if its metal like the original or something different but as soon as i know ill update in the post
[HD2 Accessories] Martyn Day:
why cant they bring out extended battery that is normal size??? lol
[HD2 Accessories] AdvantageGuy:
i'd like to see a "mega" battery with a stepped design that goes all the way to the bottom, and has 6000mah. for trips, camping, etc. add a solar panel to it even better.
[HD2 Accessories] xenept:
I'll be waiting closely for the review on this battery. Keep us all posted!
[HD2 Accessories] hanoi_toulouse:
the official htc battery 2200 mah at price of 49 usd, this one is only 14 pounds, it is maybe unusable, isnt it?
[HD2 Accessories] eriche:
yea - 2200mAH would be an option - my HD2 drains the battery too fast - less then 1 day the battery keeps my HD2 on life,...

GreeT`S
[HD2 Accessories] Starfury:
What official HTC HD2 extended battery? Can't see one in the accessory shop.
[HD2 Accessories] Starfury:
Less than one day is about average for most smartphones under normal use. Same with the Hermes, Kaiser, iPhone, etc.
[HD2 Accessories] mox123:
well has anyone tried this yet, can someone please upload pics, im quite interested in this !! i think i could live with it if it was a few mm thicker
[HD2 Accessories] nitrate:
Has anyone seen this before?

There is an short article (in german language) about the battery cover and extended battery over here
[HD2 Accessories] Mr_Panda:
its not out yet I have pre-ordered one and received a confirmation e-mail of the pre-order but no shipping date but will receive a e-mail to confirm the date it will be shipped out but will post a review once I receive it
[HD2 Accessories] eriche:
are there any news?

The original Battery gives up to fast.

Need more poWer :D
[HD2 Accessories] Mr_Panda:
still waiting for it to be in-stock still taking preorders atm
[HD2 Accessories] lee1980:
This is really nice. I would definitely go for this official battery once its out there. No matter what size my HD2 will have afterwards the cover is definetely an eye catcher on the top.
[HD2 Accessories] Triphazard:
Or Spend an extra fiver and get a cradle with it, able to charge both phone and spare battery. Not Bad value for £19.99

I can't post links (new member) but it's on the same website. Here is a screencap of the web link.

I'm ordering this at the end of the month so will post about it soon.

EDIT:- Could a MOD please take the weblink restriction off me please. Thanks
[HD2 Accessories] hx4700 user:
But the whole point is that if you are out and about you don't have access to a cradle! And if you are using your HD2 in the car for satnav, it still drains slightly as most chargers do not supply enough power to run the program and recharge the machine. Hence the bigger battery is very useful. Also, I do not want to be regularly taking the back off to replace the battery so a spare is not for me. The phone is just not designed for it, unlike my cameras which make it easy to swap batteries.

I do think that the fold out stand on the HTC big battery is a piece of ridiculous style over function. How long before that breaks, and who is likely to use it - the phone is a handheld, after all. I have never thought - "oh i wish i could prop this up on something on my desk".
[HD2 Accessories] waltsalt:
I think you could argue that it is function rather than style. AT worst, function AND style. Definitely not style over function.

I for one think this feature would be great when travelling on a train/plane and you want to watch a tv program or movie on the handset.
[HD2 Accessories] hx4700 user:
Yes you could argue that, so I'll explain my thinking. My view is that some people will be attracted by how clever a stand is, and hence by the style. My view is that this is an extended life battery, and by adding a fold out stand they have reduced the function which could have been better served by either using that space for more battery, or having a smaller lighter case with the same battery. Either of those would suit the majority of users more frequently than a stand. IMHO.
[HD2 Accessories] Mr_Panda:
nice looking cradle but comes with a standard battery not a extended battery

USB PDA cradle with battery slot

complete with Mains charger

Sync cable to connect to your PC/Laptop

Standard Life Battery (1340 mAh)
[HD2 Accessories] johnonly:
1600 mah battery from Andida (bought in beijing)

I just ran to a store and picked up a LI ion battery made by Anida

GB/T 18287-2000

3.7V

its doing great much better than the original battery.

it the same size as the original (a little more snug)

the price was 150 yuan (chinese RMB)
[HD2 Accessories] PepsiM:
Sounds great, is there a shop Europeans can import that battery from?

I looked on Ebay and Google and wasn't able to find anything
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
I SEARCHED the net and could not find somewhere to order this online :( It fits using the standard backplate?? This would be a dream come true!
[HD2 Accessories] johnonly:
extended battery 1600mah

sure thing I found a few on taobao (chinese ebay) for much less then I paid.:mad: but here is a link to it ... if it helps any.

http : || item.taobao.com/auction/item_detail-0db1-7de791bc78afb4d7c84d2484ef9a9db4.jhtml?cm_cat=0

and this is the website for the battery company ...

http: || andida.hk/ch/main.asp
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
Thanks for that :) Hopefully, it will find it's way into Ebay or Amazon like the other 1500mah battery
[HD2 Accessories] fards:
is it any different to the g1/dream version?

has the same model number..

Does that mean we can use the Dream batteries? there's a few of those around :D

http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Andida-1600...Accessories?hash=item20aec33c58#ht_500wt_1182

there's a good thread here xda about the andida 1600mah for the dream.

teh cheapest is direct from OBO http://cgi.ebay.com/1600mah-Spare-B...Accessories?hash=item518fdf578e#ht_3071wt_939

at under 10$

EDIT looking some more.. the GB/T 18287-2000

3.7V

is used on quite a lot of the packaging from andida. so we need to know a bit more details as the same battery can't be in the dream rhodium and leo :P
[HD2 Accessories] eriche:
sadly I can`t understand chinese

Ebay would be better :D
[HD2 Accessories] tefots:
i can't find this battery in ebay. arggg.
[HD2 Accessories] erebusting:
This sounds nice, sounds like the one which just came out for the nexus one (shown on engadget)...it is a complete back cover ... its 3200mah which sounds nice! =).... hopefully someone will create such a battery (or better /thinner) for the hd2....
[HD2 Accessories] djchubbs:
the phones big enough as it is, wouldnt want to carry that in my pocket,
[HD2 Accessories] erebusting:
that is your opinion, others would not mind, it is a very thin phone already anyway
[HD2 Accessories] chris_ah1:
yes, the phone is nice and thin.

TBH you only need the extended battery if you use the screen a lot - especially with wifi/bluetooth/HSDPA radios on.

Currently used as a phone with limited browsing, but regular email (30mins)+stock(15mins)+weather(3hours)+myphone syncs(24hours) has seen the battery drop less than 40% in two full days of texting and phoning....the key is that for most of the time the screen is off...especially during calls.

So I should get a comfortable 4 days if i use it like i used my old E65...pretty damn good!

IF you do browse and have the radios on AND call AND text heavilly then one day is always there. And if you get close to 15%, just stop browsing!!!! it will last several hours till you get home.

I have not been able to hammer it enough to last less than 14hours even with wifi routing for an hour.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ajgoldie15:
I have the Energy ROM on my Fuze. It was working fine today until I restarted it.

I get an error message saying "The file 'autoshortcut' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file"

Once I check "ok", the phone is unable to open anything of use.

The screen has the upper and lower task bars, and background, but none of the touchflow or clock show up.

I try reflashing the ROM but the phone is unable to connect.

I do not know what to do. Please help.

FIXED!!!

After turning the phone on and off MANY times, it finally got to the dialer before loading the touchflow. I was able to sync a connection finally and reflash. Thanks anyways!

Please delete
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Re-flashing doesn't accomplish anything that a hard reset wouldn't have fixed. Also, if you flash off your sd card, you don't need to get a pc connection (although you will need a card reader).
[HD2 General] [★]:
Hi, I cant seem to do this because:

1. The today link doesnt show up in file explorer or resco file explorer even with 'show all files' checked, so I dont see anyway to remove it.

2. Interactive appears to be some sort of tmobile crap installed ( I think ) which I can delete, but comes back with every soft reset, I have applied the cab to stop files such as htc_people coming back, but 'interactive' isnt affected :(

Any solutions guys? :D
[HD2 General] smokinmacgun:

Anyone got an answer to this? Its really annoying me how I have to put up with that random icon that cant be changed, an ugly pimple among the loverly Metro icons I have. :(

Very Close But Not The Same.

I Don't know how to change an "OFFICIAL Shipped ROM" and keep it official if you do let me know and we can make some money!!!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DaveNavy:
Its Not the Same ROM So please Stop Trolling or I will Ask Dave Shaw to Shut You Down.

I don't see GB=(GREAT BRITAIN) Listed On The Official HTC Website As A Country All I See Is United Kingdom=(UK)

So Im Not Sure your GB ROM ZIP File is Official, The UK ROM I Uploaded However is an Official RUU .EXE

I'm not going to waste time arguing anymore if you want it download it if you don't then that's your affair, These however are not the same ROM'S

Why put an official in a zip?

Oh because yours is a dump ROM right and The one I posted is an "OFFICIAL" RUU.exe wm6.5 Update
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] dazzlingdaz:
No disrespect DaveyNavy - but BeeGee is a well respected member of this forum and has been compiling all of the custom and official roms on his own file mirror.

His questions as to what exactly your file is - are totally valid - and I think you should be a little more tollerant in your replies.

I had the official UK TD2 rom which was the UK one - as an update from T-mobile - but I am pretty sure it is identical to the dumped GB rom that BeeGee pointed out.

On an official UK T-Mobile device - you can use the update RUU that DaveyNavy posted without needing the HardSPL since it is an official update for a locked offical device.

Once you have HardSPL'd your device (and basically what the majority of us on this board have done) it therefore doesnt matter whether you use either.

I hope this helps.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] criszz:

Edit: Forgot to add, the slider im looking for comes stock (i think ?) with the 1.61 ROM, it is transparent and uses the same type message symbol as the one in Sense.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] -=DarkLight=-:
This is a general question but I can't think I'm the only one wondering.

I decided to try my hand at manila file editing about two weeks ago and have gone through 3 or 4 iterations of 'what do I want my theme to be' and finally decided. I wanted to make something unique but that would also lend itself to a crisp, clean look and let me use some cool icons.

What I'm realizing now is that after 120 or so icons I feel like I'm only about half way done if I want the ENTIRE look and feel to be consistent throughout. I don't want random 'highlights' to be in default green for example and it's getting more and more difficult to find the elusive manila file to modify.

So I guess the question is...how in depth do some of you theme makers go? How many manila file replacements do you end up processing? I'm not going to do weather, for example, and I'm not tackling stocks because...well...I don't use the app, but I want to make sure I cover all the major bases. And about how long does it take everyone else? I'm SURE there's a faster way than I'm doing it (by hand, using GIMP and Manila Editor 0.2 but frankly thos work REALLY well for me). I used HDWall to create the manila files for the slider and wallpaper icons but not to create the cab file because I didn't want to restrict it to people who weren't running HDWallS (for whatever reason).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Justin241982:
Hey man, I did this for a try too and ran into the same problems, its difficult to find the time and energy to keep at it for a while I havent found much time in my days for anything recently so good luck to you, You might want to try this though it will give you a good guide for the depth issue, find someone who has already done the thorough job you are looking for, I mean has changed everything that you want changed, (and even if you dont use a tab its a good ides to make your customizations uniform all through manila or it just looks halfassed) and use this as your base to find all of the hidden things you want to change. Make sure to thank the person for thier work because you will be using their work as a template. good luck again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] charlie_82:
you have to be very dedicated and diligent if you want to create themes. I once decided to change all the green highlights to blue on the 2.1 and had to sift through thousands of manila files to find all of them. then realised there are some png's, gif's and bmp's in the windows folder (non-manila files) that are also green highlights that needed changing.

suppose once you get all the files together the first time, it gets easier to do other changes later on.

it's always a big effort the first time round. you gotta be very organised
[Mogul, XV6800 General] alher591:
is there a fix for manila 2d from always exiting out. its really annoying always have to launch it after i use a program and then waiting for it to load. im new to all this but im starting to firgure this out i have a htc mogul with the stock 6.1 rom. the manila 2d is running a sprint theme by kidnamedalbert and i manila 2d working in landscape. ive been looking all over but no luck for my question. i would greatly apreaciate any help.

thanks in advance!
[Mogul, XV6800 General] nuthineasy88s:
you could try the wm stop autoclose cab. It will stop the task manager from auto killing programs if there is less than a certain amount of memory available.

I would highly recommend flashing to a new rom though. I use Ryan Moguls heavy version 3 manila is fast and stable.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vr24:
I was searching around a bit but there is just so much info it's hard to figure out.

I understand Nav is 1.6 and up. So I'm assuming the 2.1 hero's run Nav just fine, however, they still don't have cameras.

Has there been a hack or a version of Hero released yet that has nav and a camera working?

Thanks.

When the drivers are released for the camera, it will work.
[HD2 General] drewX2:
It has been quite some time since I have used windows mobile, so my search for a good free media player capable of playing h.264 videos (or just most codecs nowadays) as turned up empty. Is the only way to play current media with an expensive program?

I can play h.264 (in .mp4 file) through the HTC player but no video shows up.

I appreciate any suggestions.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
Try this version of TCPMP. In the Video menu set the renderer to DirectDraw, and check Dither and Smooth Zoom (100%). Then, on the DirectDraw page of the Settings menu(s), uncheck all the boxes and set the overlay format to YUY2.

TCPMP works okay for things like xvid avi's but for playing .mp4 files you should always use either HTCAlbum or Pocket Media Player - those are the only two video player apps that can use hardware acceleration on the HD2.

Sorry, I have to correct my post above - SPB Backup is recommended for saving, SPB Clone will mainly copy!! settings on one´s device to share it to others (within an enterprise e.g. to mantain same pre-configurations) = According to a poorly translated side from SPB.
