I'm keeping my eyes for months now on this website: http://www.gekonewmobile.com/shop/gekotask Looks very promissing.

At the moment i'm using "agenda one" for my task-management. The big plus of this program is that you can modify many elements of the interface. Although it isn't really a finger-friendly program by default, through the use of some modifications you can make it at least finger-tolerant :).

Personally I have been using MiCarrito for shopping, its very finger friendly, easy to use and free.

For tasks, I have been using SenseTasks which has the identical feel of HTC Sense and works absolutely perfect for my tasks. After adding it to my phone, I finally started to use tasks and with the CHT addin, it makes the whole thing seamless like it was part of the original design of the phone.

I have two Linux apps, Tuxcards & Kontacts, for which I am urgently looking for data compatible WM6 apps.

Any suggestions?
[HD2 General] pharao:
bump...bump....bump...
[HD2 General] harddisk_wp:
you can import and export .vcf-style vCards.
[HD2 General] pharao:
I realized that about Kontacts myself by now.

But what about the XML file format of Tuxcards?
[HD2 General] FordPrefect:
Not sure what exactly you trying to do ... but I am a long time Linux desktop user. Synchronising my HD2 with Kontact (the contacts and appointments) over SynCE and OpenSync without problems.
[HD2 General] pharao:
Syncing is of no interest for me, as I never use that unreliable process anyway.

Never sure what gets overwritten where.

I have TONS of tech notes stored in my Tuxcards archive which I need for my work. So I'm desperately looking for an XML viewer for my SmartPhone that can handle/display the TuxCards archive.

I've read a TuxCards look-a-like tool called BasketNotes, but it also only exports in HTML format.

And that makes the entire Collapsible Tree functionality of Tuxcards go away.

Its a real pain in the rear trying to browse through hundreds of static web pages on a smart phone.

Anyone know of a way to easily import Tuxcard XML archives e.g. into Phatnotes?
[HD2 General] pharao:
bump...bump...bump
[HD2 General] pharao:
Sorry, but I'm still looking desperately for an XML Reader for WM6.

Anyone got any ideas here?

Edit:

I just tested the 1st one in the results, and it works fine. It's ugly, but it works. Spend some time with the rest of the results if you're not happy with the 1st one.
[HD2 General] pharao:
Hhhmm, I had googled my eyes out for an XML WM6 reader and couldn't find *anything* other than Porn Sites & Crack Torrents....

I'll try the Haali Reader for starters.

Thankz a lot...
[HD2 General] pharao:
I tried all of those your Google list came up with and none works.

The best I get is some notepad like prog which reads XML like a flat text file.

Not one of them even cares to interpret the inner structure of the XML data, so no chance of a snowball in hell to get a hierarchical notebook like layout of it :-(

Specially that Haali app was a big disappointment here.

And even apps like phatnotes only support plain text file imports and TuxCards doesn't export to plain text....(only to HTML)
[HD2 General] sub69:
Stupid question for you then - Why not export to HTML and use Opera?

Edit: Sorry, just realised I missed one of your earlier posts...
[HD2 General] pharao:
The question wouldn't be that stupid if not for the ABYSMALLY LOUSY quality of that HTML export :(

While TuxCards itself offers dynamic tree navigation, the exported HTML file is one big static dump, w/o proper font sizing and minimal (if any) graphic support.

In essence, its a pain in the rear to review, specially on a PocketPC device.

I think they just put it in there to have something listed under "Export" (just like the PhatNotes folks with their lousy Text Only import "feature").
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] fredfox_uk:
Hi

The last few days I've been using my diamond, part way through a call the phone switches off. When I try and turn it on it'll vibrate then switch off again, as it does when the battery is flat. However, if I plug the charger in and turn it on the battery is reported as anything from 40% to 90% !! Just happened a few minutes about, before the call the battery was showing as 75%, 2 minutes later the phone died and wouldn't switch on. I plugged the charger in, switched on and the battery was at 92%. Occasionally, it will switch on without charging and the battery will show as 40% !

Anyone else seen this and got an idea of the problem ? The phone is 18 months and this is the original battery. Is the battery on it's way out or is there another issue ? I've hard reset the phone a couple of times but that's made no difference.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Rudegar:
battery's are very analogue components and there is no good digital way to measure their charge

it's don by measuring the volt lvl as the more flat a batt goes the lower the volts will go

so you can't really trust it much as a batt at the end of it's lifespan could have normal volt lvls 1 min and be flat the next
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] fredfox_uk:
The battery is dead then ? :) Though so, I've bought a new one, only 20GBP :)

Thanks for your response.

Anyone had any luck getting a Redfly to work with the HD2?

I got a C8 and they're trying to give me a firmware workaround to it might work with WM6.5 (since they're only supporting their newer models from now on), but still no driver working adequately for the HD2.

The latest driver kinda works but my phone usually needs a soft reset after disconnection.

... might be stuck with just using my bluetooth keyboard for a while but I did like the 8-hour battery life and the bigger screen too.
[HD2 Accessories] matbyr:
I wish I had an answer for you but...sorry. But I'm also a C8 owner and Oh! how I wish I could have it work.

The available driver totally locked my HD2 so I had to hard reset.
[HD2 Accessories] staccatissimo:
it works for usb connection. for bluetooth, i havent test.

it should works, but first u have to upgrade redfly firmware to 1.5

>>p.s. i use miri's 2.1 rom. its is awesome. many thanks to him

Updates:

Bluetooth connection is working. Everything is fine. I even got teeter the game running, u can tilt the leo for controlling g sensor while video is fed to redfly c8 screen.
[HD2 Accessories] matbyr:
Sorry but which driver did you use?
[HD2 Accessories] typex:
I had to hard reset too

After installing the latest Redfly cab in my HD2 it would not finish the boot anymore.

So battery out, hard reset and a nice hour of re-installs.....
[HD2 Accessories] typex:
Today it worked with some limitations

celiocorp.com/008

works today, the hardreset may have helped after all....

And the limitations are:

- a soft reset after each disconnect is required. A second connection without the soft reset blocks the HD2

- BT kinda works, some keys do not seem to respond and often the HD2 blocks

- Email application, IM+ and internet pocket explorer work well, have not tested much the other apps

(these are the ones I will mainly use in the Redfly)

Using USB connection

- Some USB sticks can be read (not all of them)

- VGA output works even for 800x600 resolution. Photo album works, but not slideshow.
[HD2 Accessories] TFGBD:
Does anyone here still have the drivers for the Redfly? If so, please attach them to a reply. Their website is gone.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmmmmm:
With hundreds (guessing) ROMs now posted for the TP2 is there a way to get a gauge on which ones are better at what things. WITHOUT LOOKING AT EVERY ROM POST. :) I want to upgrade from 6.1 but every post ROM I have looked at seems to have some caveat about this or that not working (GPS, MMS, etc.). Its very difficult to contrast and compare the different ROMs. Maybe we can develop a form that devs can complete when uploading a ROM to give a clear, concise, and standardized view of the features and caveats on their ROMs. This would make it much easier to decide which one to use. :cool:

Thanks to everyone that has ever posted a meaning message to this forum. :D

EDIT: I am not complaining about the caveats. This is about the information that we need to know about the ROMs available. I want to make an informed decision on which caveats are acceptable to me. Sorry if it reads poorly.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Jaykno:
Yeah most cooked roms dont have near to polish of a stock rom. However, most of these guys build these roms for basically free. The "scene" is drivin by its member so if you want something done that noone else is doing you should work to make it happen yourself. Its not like your a customer and get to complain...

Good idea for sure tho.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] kedashkash:
Great

Thats a great idea :) I hope that it happens.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
I know what you mean, and I agree with you to a certain extent. When I first came here, I was totally confused and bewildered by the number of different ROMs. There's certainly no way you can read the whole thread for each ROM, there's way too much.

I think you'll find the ROMs are a lot more stable than you think. If you want to stick with stability, I'd go with Sense (TouchFlo3D) 2.1, not 2.5. But that still gives you plenty of choice. Have a look at some screenshots, see if there's one that looks nice to you and seems to contain the features you need, try flashing it and see how you go. If you don't like it, you can easily change and flash a different one.

Or another approach is to look at the threads which seem the most "popular" and try one of those, banking on there being a lot of people to help you, in the same situation, and that "so many people" can't be wrong ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmmmmm:
Whoo Dude... back off. Im not complaining about anyones work. Nor am I knocking ANY of the work done here. This is simply a feeler to see if the cooks would be up to it standardizing the info about their work and if its a good idea or not. Notice I said "Maybe WE can develop...", that includes me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] CanCreT:
Good Idea

I think u right there. The cooks are done a fantastic jobs their to provide us with such amount of their free time and fabulous ROMS. However, each cook choose a different orientation for their ROM, i mean some want to have max free mem, others go for esthetics, etc etc.

It would be nice if we can have a sort of specs (hmmm well i hope u get the idea here) that we can check to know which type of ROM it is, which is working or not and so on and so on.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmmmmm:
If I created a list (word or excel) of all features and functions of the TP2 then had the cooks complete them for the ROMs and send them to me. I could then compile them all into a database that would display ROMs side by side with a feature list checkbox table. (No sense making the cooks do alot of initial data entry... that stuff sucks. ;) ) We could then make direct comparisons of each one. All they would need to do is keep me updated with the latest ROM info and I can keep the DB updated. Once the feature list is stabilized I could turn on the feature where they could be able to update the info themselves.

I don't mind doing the development of this if the cooks are up for this idea. I can't cook a ROM but I can code a db/website.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] shark0807:
I've been trying to fix this problem for a long while, especially since I would like to install busybox on my Hero. I currently have root access (as can be seen through root explorer), and I have no trouble flashing to custom roms and things like that, but when on the base, rooted HTC Hero it seems the only command that doesn't work in the console is 'adb remount'.

The only time I have ever had it work was when I stumbled upon a guide on how to do it (I have since lost the link), but there was something in the update.zip file included with the guide that completely disabled wifi and left GPS perpetually on, which to mean is not worth it just to have remount access.

I know mostly everyone on this forum has no trouble getting remount access, since every thread seems to use it, but how do I get access?

Thank you!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MorningThief581:
I'm having the same problem, albeit on a Sprint Hero. I'm definitely rooted. I flashed multiple ROMs before using a Nand backup to revert to stock... and since then I've used shell to uninstall some stock apps. But I get 'permission denied' anytime i try the remount command. It's frustrating.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Did you modify your boot.img file so that ro.secure is now = 0?

On GSM Hero, you need to do that if you want to use ADB in root mode. I don't know exactly what would need to be done on your CDMA phone, but on the GSM, you need to extract the boot.img ramdisk, and then edit init.rc (see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=443041&page=2)

Try running this command-

getprop ro.secure

and see if you get a 1 or a 0. If it's a 1, then ADB should not see the device as rooted, so find out about editing the boot.img file. If a 0, I don't know what's going on.

[Nexus One General] bofslime:
On the outside someone might be thinking the N1 is a terrible phone plauged with problems etc. But the more I look into these articles and reviews they seem to be 'complaining' about non issues.

You've all seen the engadget and gizmodo reviews, but take this article: 6 reasons not to like the nexus one!? This guy made up his mind before he even picked up the phone, and then wrote his article based on other bias reviews.

There was also an article featured on /. regarding the support backlash but all it cites are random 'customers' getting bounced around, and doesn't corrilate a common problem or state what these 'people' were having problem with. However there does seem to be a real problem with 3g/edge flapping. If the article had been written as well as this random forum poster I would be fine with it, but instead PCW took the angle of FUD, and it just angers me.

...and then it hit me, this phone might just be the iphone killer and fanboys are actually getting scared. Thoughts?
[Nexus One General] ohgood:
"6 reasons to hate" is a hands-off schoolboy attempt at bashing.

he's just pissed he isn't important enough (or hasn't budgeted his finances) enough to have one handed him.

the other non-reviews are a farce. when there is a real, hands on, weekly use review of the nexus, i'll listen up. for now it's all M$ generated (and other mobile OS venders) fud that proves the nexus is awesome hardware, running awesome software.

sure, there are some what-ifs about verizon/att/whoever, but they're just carriers. dumb pipes. really really dumb pipes. we all know it's the hardware and more importantly the SOFTWARE that matters. the dumb pipe carriers are just mad they finally have a real reason to fear phones that are not chained to their crappy services and contracts.

let them whine. the fud is easy to cut through with logic. :)
[Nexus One General] rocolema:
I got the Nexus One. Your are correct, the only problem is the 2G/3G connection switching. The computing power of this phone is amazing.
[Nexus One General] JoshHart:
I never like professional reviews for anything, movies, games or tech because theyre all just some one paid to write their opinion, and you never know whos writing their check, or their companies check. I do however like user reviews from people that paid for and really use the product, and I think those have been strong. I think the most important part of the "6 reasons not to like" article is all the backlash at the bottom and users defending the phone, shows how much people really like theirs already. I am really lovin this phone, also I havent had the 3G issues some have been having, I have a mytouch, G1 and N1, all on TMob and they all have 3G all the time for me, I think it really depends on the market cause if it was a hardware or software issue I would think everyone would have that problem
