Hi Guys,

for some reason my HD2 only came with one garish weather wallpaper.

does anyone have the plain black wallpaper? and/or any original wallpapers.

where does one upload the buggers?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dsh3:
I've uploaded all the images my HD2 came with. Hope it's what you need :)

Hi,

I was desperate to get these back on my Hd2,

thanks very much
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fuzzysig:
after using this phone for about 12 days i can say that itouch/iphone requires no adjustment at all.

i havent used itouch before either the first time i held it in my hand it worked flawlessly.

there was not many missed buttons and accidental clicks on the itouch.

capacitive screen is the way to go for finger operation.

but itouch and iphone also are made specifically for finger touch.

so all the buttons are bigger, the scroll bars are bigger.

on the touch pro 2 theres still million of checkboxes and scroll bars and buttons that are so tiny that you have to have baby size fingers in order to hit that button...

has anyone used an i phone theme for rhodium and see if it is more "finger friendly" theme even with resistive touch screen?

just like with any defice there will be people defending it.

windows vs apple vs linux.

american vs japanese vs german cars

vegetarians vs everyone else

intel vs amd

all these are made with different purpose in mind.

but the better analogy would be

programming in java and programming in assembly language

yes old school dudes that can pinpoint every component on their favorite motherboard and know what it does would say its the most direct programming language

but its old its hard to learn and takes forever to write something.

and you get java that sacrifices some precision in comands but gets the job done with less resources and headache.

my point is

everyone that keeps saying the capacitive and resistive is not much different is far from reality. they are different even though they are both touch screens.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fuzzysig:
i went off topic a lil :)

so the idea was if you have itouch or iphone and touch pro 2

post your experience in this topic so its not allover the board

and if you have a iphone theme installer that would be even better id love to hear how much difference does it make having bigger buttons on he screen
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
I actually cringe a bit every time someone refers to the iPod Touch as the "itouch". It just doesn't sound right...

Anyway, I have both the TP2 and an iPod Touch (2nd gen). The only difference in terms of the touch screen is that one requires pressure and the other doesn't. It's that simple and it's because of the capacitive vs resistive nature of the screens. I think they both work well enough for me.

Honestly, I'd prefer capacitive because then, the screen won't need a flexing membrane and would actually feel hard like glass. And multi-touch would enable full-speed typing on a landscape soft keyboard.

But I've no issues with the resistive screen on the TP2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] 69Pwned:
Just my 2 cents.

Nothing compares to the iPod Touch and iPhone screens.

They work flawless ........ :eek:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Ky772:
Ipod Touch/Iphone has the better screen.

Touch Pro 2 is the better phone.

I had an Iphone.. hated the fact that I couldn't customize it to my liking, so I went to TP2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] 69Pwned:
If you jailbreak an iPhone, you can customize anything .......... ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] xredjokerx:
first of all, its not an "itouch" its an ipod touch. do you hear people calling the other ipods "inano" or "iclassic"?

no, its ipod [SPACE] touch

anyway, i have both. regretfully, i like the ipod touch's functions so much more. however, modding the rhodium files and registry is easier because im more familiar with windows in general.

i also like the ipod touch screen more, and also the webbrowser, but i cant stand to not have a physical keyboard and that was the breaking point for me

i personally dont mind the rhodium screen, though it definitely isnt as finger friendly, and is also annoying to use with webbrowsers at times...

sometimes i just broadcast wifi and use my ipod touch safari browser :D

but i wouldnt rather have an iphone, i like physical keyboards.. and the rhodium one is really really good haha

rhodium (phone with good work capabilites (word, internet, email)

ipod touch (play device)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
As far as resistive screens go, the Rhodium is as good as they get. Comparing it to a capacitive screen, in terms of sensitivity, is obviously not going to favor the Rhodium. However, I have an iPod Touch (1st generation), an iPhone (1st generation), and a Rhodium (obviously), and I can say that I almost prefer the Rhodium's screen, since it's much more precise and I can use my fingers, gloves, or a stylus for input. The iPhone's screen is much more sensitive and does multitouch, both things I would love to have on the Rhodium, but the Rhodium's screen is more practical for my uses and fits my needs better. Plus, WM 6.5 combined with the massive screen size means I rarely have to use the stylus.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jt_armstrong:
For the overall package the Rhodium beats the iphone hands down. I have installed SPB Mobile Shell which expells any requirments for skinny fingers. In fact the Rhodium and mobile shell is an awesome combination.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mrphatpat:
....

Well not to beat a dead horse but I have a iPhone 3g a iPod touch 1st gen and what at&t calls a Tilt2.

As far as screens go there are none better than the apple devices. They have that safari and the app store. That's the extint of their lead. Which is tremendous. Safari is great and simple just as the all the Apple devices. But they are simple. Meaning even with jailbreak there are things that you still can't customize. And so e things you pay a large price for doing so such as speed and stability.

The Tilt2 Now here's where they have it. The screen itself is beautiful. Works the best ive ever seen on a non apple device. I set them side by side and play the same movie hands down tilt2 screen wins.

I currently switch between my tilt2 and iPhone 3g trying to find the sweet spot on either device.

Welp. I'm spent.

Peace P.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] band27:
Jailbreaking the phone ...yes you can customize everything but it'a B**tch to upgrade the Rom for the purpose of upgrading.

My brother has the phone and everything about the screen is right. ...and all those neat programs scream come over to iphone but the only thing that keeps me here time and time again is the XDA community.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mrphatpat:
those neat programs scream come over to iphone but the only thing that keeps me here time and time again is the XDA community.

Exactly.

That's what won't allow me to very far from HTC. I have been a at&t fan since the first tilt. This community has been fantastic. Not that the iPhone community has been bad but it's like your fighting with apple every step of the way to make your phone your phone. This is where HTC AND XDA have it all covered. Anytime I meet someone and they say wow you know a lot about this phone I say it's easy just go to XDA. that's where the funny looks begin.

Lol.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stormrain:
I couldn't agree more, especially with the last statement. I also have an ipod touch (2G) and a rhodium (obviously) and i mostly use the ipod for games, music etc.

But when it comes down to more serious stuff, well I just can't do withouth the TP2 :)

I do like the ipod touch - iphone screen, games and all, but I simply couldn't have it as a primary phone.

Personally I don't have any issue with either type of screen, I find they function very well, and just stated by a friend above, the only difference i spot is that one needs some pressure and the other doesn't.

Oh and I couldn't do without rhodium's hardware keyboard, in my opinion it's the best feature of this phone, and i don't intend to change it before an Leo with a keyboard (touch pro3?) comes around...

That's all from me :D

By the way (a bit offtopic), xredjokerx how do you broadcast wifi from the Rhodium? I mean what app are you using for that? It'll prolly come up handy for me :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Alcoholic:
The iphone has a better screen, more apps, faster processor and graphics but the pro2 has the backing of Xda-Developers. :)

I prefer pro2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sumflipnol:
I completely agree with this! Let's see an iPhone user wear thick gloves while using their phone!:cool:

All I can say is:

Capacitive screen: sensitivity

Resistive screen: practicality

What I really want to see is multitouch support on a resisitive screen.:eek: Then I would be really happy!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] josean-8:
i want to give one advantage of the resistive screen and is the ability to draw with the stylus on the screen and write on it! (on the pro2 writing a message on the transcriber mode is a breeze, just like on a notebook) the capacitive ones dont have this ability yet! thats why the pro2 have the resistive one, remember is a business pda!!

the problem with the pro screen keyboard is not the screen is the software! i haved the same isues and solved them with the swipe keyboard! (remenber that the pro2 have a real keyboard and the i phone not!!)

try to instal the swipe keyboard! i installed it on my pro 2 and is the best screen keyboard i ever used! better than the i phone one!! you dont have to worry about pressing letters just swipe your finger over them and the word appears!(dont worry about going over the incorrect letter! it know what you mean) search for it here!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] msmith1991:
I have owned a g1. I have a Ipod touch and zune hd<----capacitive screens I also have a wing and tp2..

i prefer the resistive screens of my wing & tp2 simply because i can use the screen multiple ways in stead of 1 way..which is your finger tip..it doesnt suprise me that apple would use capacitive so using the thing can be done 1 way..which is finger tip..apple has to controll everything..

i like using my finger nails to text on the screen and also when i where gloves at my job..

to me there is no real difference because i dont touch my screen that lightly that i wouldnt get a response..when i pick up my phone & use it, im not thinking about how soft or hard to press the screen..i just do it as 2nd nature it my screen responds evertime...multitouch isnt really a big deal for me eighter... its def not a deal breaker..i love my tp2 in everyway..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ScooterG:
I used to have an iPod Touch and couldn't stand trying to type on the thing. I type much easier on the TP2's touchscreen. The other functions of the touch screen on the iPod, such as browsing and navigating through menus were better though. If someone could just make something to match the Safari browser...

You may want to try out TCPMP. It's old, reliable (for the most part) and free.

the phone is not even out yet!!!

and we still dont have any pre release of the winmo 6.5 for the phone thats been out for some time now

what happened there?

and to add to the screen argument

he doesnt seem to be struggling with the screen at all

everything is very smooth and precise.

no need to apply PRESSURE to the screen. or take training courses to figure out how to use the touch screen

Hello,

I write a WindowsMobile C# application (details below).

I added a try...catch statement, wrapping the Main Form, trying to show a message to my users to report of any issues. something like...

try {
Application.Run(new MainViewForm());
}
catch (Exception e) {
String msg = "Failed to execute properly :(\n" +
"Please report error to ...@gmail.com\n" +
"I'll do my best to fix this!";
MessageBox.Show(msg, "Application Error");
}

Sadly, The exception is being called, but the dialog is not showed (a quick flickering appears and disappears.

I even tried to show another Form with my error but same thing happens.

I was wondering

1. how can I handle an error message that would succeed?

2. is there a BKM to handle app crash reporting?

I'd really appreciate help on this.

Thanks

I've got an odd problem at the moment in that the mail tab is showing one more number than the number of messages. Even when I delete all the emails it still shows "1" on the tab.

Any ideas why that is?
[HD2 General] dashrink:
I think I know why

my guess is that there is a mail from microsoft in the inbox. Check the oldest mail you have. It should be the welcome mail. Hope it solves the issue.
[HD2 General] gazhowell:
I don't think it's that as I've deleted everything in the inbox so it's totally empty and t still says one mail. Hmmmm.
[HD2 General] Archer:
I know this is a pain to do, but delete the email account and recreate it.

That should solve the problem :)
[HD2 General] gazhowell:
Fixed it! I didn't realise I had two inboxes, there was my normal one I use and there was another outlook one with an email in there saying welcome (like you suggested dashrink).

All working now :)

the micro SD card!

i checked it twice overnight and during the day.. so i can say that for sure!

I own a Samsung micro SD 8gb class 6..

Night 1: lost 35 % in 7 hours with SD in it, constant data connection with hourly updates

Day 1: lost about 54 % in 8 with SD in it, constant data con. , hourly updates, some calls,texts & browsing in Opera

Night 2: same conditions as night 1 but without SD card.. lost 7 %

Day 2: nearly same conditions as day 1 but without SD card.. lost 27 %

Now a question: are sandisk cards better? i really need a new 1 cause my samsung's ****ed up!

Hope i could help someone with this..
[HD2 General] Henry_Lee:
Use BsB Tweaker which can enable power saver for SD Card.

And keep in mind that Battery lose first half capacity very fast and then stay on long time on the level 30-40-50.

.
[HD2 General] TheGodfather-GF:
In my case it's the exact opposite, power loss from 100%-50% is slow, below 50% it can go empty within 7 hours in STANDBY (reproducible). Thanks for the advice with BsB Tweaker.

PS: I have a sandisk 16gb class 2.
[HD2 General] waxfresh:
you mean the power saving option? it's enanled since the first day..

i know that with the first half but the sd card is really killing me! currently working outside so im in need of the radio.. with sd card in it and running fm radio, battery drainage is about 19 % per hour.. thats not even a bad joke anymore, its realy frustrating!

thank god that i have electricity here
[HD2 General] pedmond:
That can't be right. Must be a rogue application. I have a 16 GB card and the phone never loses more than 1-2% (radio off) during the night.
[HD2 General] waxfresh:
must be my samsung card.. apps are all closed over night!

i got tomtom,navigon,some music & games on my card.. no idea
[HD2 General] broncogr:
Formaty sd card and try again.

Must be some application installed on sd or some problem with the sd card itself
[HD2 General] waxfresh:
Ill try it when im at home!

is there an alternative for the built in fm radio? tried listening without sd.. same result 3 % loss in 10 mins! how can a dumb radio use so much battery?

i remember listening radio with my nokia e90.. listend for hours with minimal battery loss
[HD2 General] lovebell:
It makes sense to me, thats why I was saying this here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5230146&postcount=10

Any fellows here are using the A-data class 6 16gb and dose not affect the battery life? I'd like to ask this again.

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 General] Archer:
I tried mine too, and I lost 4% in 10 minutes, but that was with the screen on. I then turned off the radio and lost 3% in 10 minutes with the screen on, but not doing anything (other than usual-for-my-phone background tasks). I then turned the radio back on and turned the screen off, and it used less than 1% in 10 minutes (I say less than 1% because the indicator had not changed.)

To me, that says that (in my case) the battery killer is the screen, which I can accept because I have it lit very high (I just don't like it dim.)
[HD2 General] Xeon:
Please tell me you are talking about the Sandisk 16GB class2 :eek:
[HD2 General] waxfresh:
screen off,radio on.. still 3% in 10 min.

my screen is on 20 % light .. i also would like to set it to 100% but i dont want the battery to be empty before i can type in the pin :D
[HD2 General] Archer:
The only major thing I'm considering changing, to see if it has any effect, is my windows live config. I currently have my sync frequency set to "as soon as it arrives", which requires a constant data connection (before that starts a flame war, please read this.) I'm gonna turn that off and see if it improves, but I still think the screen is my big problem.
[HD2 General] Starfury:
Sounds like you need to recalibrate the "remaining-charge-estimate-circuit-thingy" in your HD2's battery. Drain battery to as near as nothing as possible and fully charge it without unplugging it (I have heard its suggested to do this with the device off). Might work straight off the first time, might take a couple goes.

Do not leave the device below 20% charge for any long period of time as it can cause problems with the Li-Ion battery.
[HD2 General] waxfresh:
my live sync is off.. useing gmail with the built in mail app, updateing hourly
[HD2 General] Archer:
I'm gonna try it on mine and see if I have any improvement anyway. I'm sure we have different things running on our devices. I'm just trying to narrow things down before removing the SD card to see if that does anything.
[HD2 General] dgtel2:
SD Card is one of the factor

To my sense, if a lot of softwares in installed in your SD Card, then definitely the battery will deplete rapidly.

I install all 3G-constant-data-softwares in the system memory, not card. Those not required CONSTANT 3G data connection and not to be running 24/7 will be installed in SD card (eg. 1-Calc, TCPMP, Lexisgoo, Resco Explorer).

So far, with the stock ROM and related softwares (installed at "right" locations) gives me average 1 full day battery juice having 25% balance. And again, battery consumption is a very very subjective topic. SD card IS definitely one of the battery earter.
