[Touch HD Themes and Apps] 0o_crash_o0:
Hello,

I have a quick question. I have WM 6.5 with Manilla and the Hexagon start menu installed. I installed a lot of apps, but some icons stay on the "root" of the start menu, then some games end up in games, but others create a folder called Apps and Games...

In the end I have 20 games where 5 are in the Games folder, 4 are in the Games and apps folder, and 11 are in the root. :(

I have looked and looked around for a way to organize this, but I can't find anything.

Can somebody tell me how to do this? Is there a way?

Cheers,
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zelendel:
You can use Total commander to go into windows\start menu and there you will find all the folders and icons. Arrange them how you see fit
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] 0o_crash_o0:
Awesome. Got Total Commander, and arranged the icons. Thanks a lot. :rolleyes:

Hi,

I have bought MSVC some years ago (at the time of version 1.5...) and I can't find a way to instal it on my current ROM (6.5.3). I understood that the version I originally got, as well as the fix to upgrade to 1.6 are not compatible with 6.5, fair enough. But I can't find an updated one in french. I only could find one in english and it works - except that I need to spell the names with an english prononciation and it is not the most convenient way...

I have found some stuff for multi language support in the Da_G thread but as I'm not a cook, I don't know how to use them. Is it possible to build a cab file to install the french version of MSVC? If yes, where could I find infos?

Sorry if this has been already asked and answered, I did search and did not find anything...

Thanks !

Anyone notice in the quick system info the processor says armv7 processor 662mhz. I assume that's just an error and its really 1ghz right?
[Nexus One General] lessthanjoey:
I believe the phone has something similar to Intel's Speedstep. At idle the processor speed drops way down and it only increases as far as necessary so as to save power.
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
The CPU is automatically scaled as demand/load increases. 1ghz is the max when under heavier load, so it's to be expected that it would be running at 662mhz when you bring up system info. Don't worry... that's normal.
[Nexus One General] lightforce:
well i refreshed it like 20 times, I even see it hit 162mhz
[Nexus One General] lightforce:
how about free memory? I had a ton of apps open it said 20mb free is that normal?
[Nexus One General] coolbho3000:
BogoMIPS is NOT the same as MHz on the Nexus!

Multiply that 662 by 1.507! :mad: :D

hello everybody..

i just had a problem after upgrading my x1 to the new Christian ROM ..

at first it was all good until the upgrade progress is complete then the device restarted for the fist time and i entered the details about time and regional settings..but then it restarted again and just" freezed " on the startup when it says "Sony Ericsson"..i tried to restart again and removed the battery and it's the same ..i hope someone can help me with that!

thank you all :D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] omidchini:
first use the built in search feature of this forum and search before you start a thread

and then come to the conclusion of flashing your device again!:D

PS: google is one of your dearest friends!! :p
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Draken Korin:
I 2nd the search advice and not opening a new thread for everything

but: When having problems with a rom I usually post problems and search solutions in the roms thread I flashed, who else should know about it? that's called common sense...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] celarbi:
Remember that you always have to hard reset after flashing:D. Then your phone will work more better:D

Hi,

Can you recommend on a decent looking silicone/gel skin for the HD2 ?

Thanks :)
[HD2 Accessories] Mikulec:
Check the thread about cases, there are few silicon cases.

I am planing to buy this one: http://www.netimes.com/shop/resin-soft-jelly-case-for-htc-hd2-t8585-htc-leo-p-2455.html?cPath=80_731
[HD2 Accessories] liamR:
I saw the cases thread, I thought that it would be more useable to make a new thread dedicated to silicone/gel skins.

The gel skin in your link is nice and cheap, but the black color is out of stock :(

How about the pdair luxury silicone case ?

I have that case coming, once it's here I will upload a couple of pics into the cases thread and give my impressions.

I'm looking for a good silicon case as well. Been looking on ebay, loads of cheap ones (£2-4) but are they any good. Also seen these, are they worth paying the extra for?

That flexishield was also mentioned in the case thread and there were some good reviews on that one.

[HD2 Accessories] Hyweljh:
I have that one! and I must say its the best thing for my phone EVER!!! its such High quality unlike the other silicone cases with massive gapes where the camera and speakers are! also it covers the edges of the camera but not the camera itself so when you put your phone down the phone is no longer resting on the camera arch! its resting on the silicone case so I like that about it
[HD2 Accessories] xenept:
That's pretty cheap (although black one out of stock - grr). Can you still shove it in the leather cover that came with the phone - I know it's a bit of a tight squeeze anyway.
[HD2 Accessories] liamR:
Check it out, they have 87 black cases on their ebay sale -

supposedly not as flexible as regular silicon, which is what i was looking for. some people on gave it pretty good reviews.
[HD2 Accessories] snerkler:
I have just ordered both the jelly soft case from netimes and the flexishield one. When they arrive I will post on here my opinions
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
I ordered that case but where I am, it will take forever to get to me... I was hoping to see someone review it first...
[HD2 Accessories] liamR:
Netimes say that they will restock it in a few days.
[HD2 Accessories] blackheart2925:
ordered the PDair luxury case around 18th Dec 09, they shipped on 29th Dec 09...and its yet to arrive,....iugghhh!!! i wish they had options for expedited shipping...
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
Yeah... PDair's shipping options suck!.... I am also still waiting for mine :(
[HD2 Accessories] liamR:
The black color is back in stock. I ordered 2 units, they shipped it on the same day. :)
[HD2 Accessories] MaliciousKen:
Hmmm .. I ordered the luxury silicone case from Pdair ... arrived within a week from HongKong to Singapore. It gives a nice grip and do make the device look more elegant compared to those cheap silicone cases.

Used to have one for for Omnia II, simply loves it. Thus, bought another one for my HD2
[HD2 Accessories] liamR:
Can you post photos of the HD2 with the Pdair case ?

thanks
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
Yeah... I want to see it too :)
[HD2 Accessories] orzech.miron:
what about making fotos with this case? doesn't the flash reflex in this case and making the photos quality worse?
[HD2 Accessories] MaliciousKen:
alright.. i will do it in office tomorrow. I left my camera there.
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
Thanks bro... can't wait to see it... does the case raise the back enough to lift the camera lens off the surface? I constantly worry about scratching it.... When I get to Singapore in a month or so, I will probably get a Martin Fields screen protector which includes a layer for the camera lens also...
[HD2 Accessories] MaliciousKen:
yes it does raise it high enough

Pdair luxury silicone case on HD2

As promised, here are some photos. Pardon me for the lousy quality of the pictures.
[HD2 Accessories] THAD LOVELACE:
thank you so much! I ordered this friday! Pic's are nice, i made the right choice for sure!
[HD2 Accessories] aimonlocker:
i am using the case below at the moment...

the image in the site looks a bit ugly compare to the real product, but worth to have it :)
[HD2 Accessories] Syphon Filter:
That PDAir silicon case looks good, bit pricey though...

EDIT:

£8 on expansys. Not bad at all actually, I might get one.

MaliciousKen, how tightly does it fit the HD2?
[HD2 Accessories] MaliciousKen:
hmmm .. it fits just nice... not too tight .. not too loose...
[HD2 Accessories] thebomber:
does it come with a screen protector or not

and what about the rubber feeling do you ge a good grip
[HD2 Accessories] MaliciousKen:
It does not comes with any screen protector.

Grip is definitely better than those cheap silicone cases found on ebay.
[HD2 Accessories] Syphon Filter:
Sounds good, I might get myself one of those.
[HD2 Accessories] enyaj:
@MaliciousKen,

Does the luxury silicone case from pdair fit well(tight)? Coz I ordered the white silicone one and I put it up for sale about an hour after I got it coz it did not fit that well. It was kinda loose. I then ordered the plastic one and I'm still waiting for it to arrive. Although I like the looks of the Luxury one.
[HD2 Accessories] MaliciousKen:
like i mentioned earlier... its not very tight ... and definitely not loose... it fits just nice.
[HD2 Accessories] snerkler:
My flexishield case came today:-

Pros: Nice sturdy case that fits well. Has nice protection for the camera lens.

Cons: Although a snug fit it adds noticable bulk to the phone, both in the hand, and also now won't fit in my phone pouch that I put in in when carrying it in my pocket to protect the screen (Don't like screen protectors). It's not a massive case by any means, but when the phone's that big in the first place every extra mm here and there makes a difference.

Not the nicest colour, kind of a partially see-through grey/brown.

Still waiting for the one from netimes to arrive, will post my opinions when it does.
[HD2 Accessories] fz9999:
I've just got the flexishield (about £3.50 from fleabay) and I think it's very good. A tight fit and looks thick enough to actually protect the phone when I drop it!.
[HD2 Accessories] Pezza4u:
Can anyone recommend a UK company or on ebay for one of these? I don't want a silicone one that stuff sticks to, so would prefer plastic. TIA :)
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
Still waiting for my Luxury Case from PDair... in the meantime, I also ordered one of those rubberized hard backs/case which was $8 for 3 different colors (white, black and red) just for fun :)

Ebay is full of options... just type HD2 and check it out!

My Netimes Resin soft jelly case (black) just left Hongkong for its destination :P

Does anyone have any real life pictures of this case?

EDIT: I found some real life photos in another thread, but they were just of the case (without HD2 in it). If someone has pictures of the case with the phone in it, that would be great :D
[HD2 Accessories] Winse:
Epikcase

Have this on my phone, its very slim and fits tight. I like it because it doesn't add much extra bulk on the phone. It also gives it a pretty good grip.

Im a new user so it won't let me post links, you can do a search for

"BLACK Epik Resin Case Skin Cover for HTC Touch HD2 HD 2"

on Ebay.

btw, comes with a screen protector also which so far is very good to compared to ones i have purchased seperately.
[HD2 Accessories] thebomber:
i went to the epik as well

it looks awsome

waiting it to reach from hongkong

its really cheap
[HD2 Accessories] xenept:
I know this is difficult to answer, but with the imminent release of the extended battery and corresponding back cover, is there any slack in the case to handle it?
[HD2 Accessories] lovebell:
I have posted some here.

That PDair silicone case looks really nice Btw.
[HD2 Accessories] ralphfx:
Thanks for the pictures! Looks like the Netimes jelly case is a good fit :)
[HD2 Accessories] liamR:
Just got the Netimes Resin soft jelly case (black one). The case is very nice, it doesn't make the HD2 less attractive. In my opinion it will protect it from mild hits and scratch (to the body), but definitely not from falling off table height.
[HD2 Accessories] XDA mark:
I am thinking of buying a Netimes Resin soft jelly case, like a LOT of people here have done, but still not sure about the color. Black/gray seems a good choice.. but I keep looking at the white (or ''milk'') version!! I want to know if that would look good, but those pictures included on the website don't help me with deciding.

Anyone here have the Netimes Resin soft jelly case in white? :confused:
[HD2 Accessories] ralphfx:
Well you can always order one color and order the rest of the collection if you like it ;) I will do just that when I "approve" my black resin case when it arrives :D
[HD2 Accessories] Wevenhuis:
Here are my pictures of my case. I ordered mine from Netimes. Pardon my slightly used and dirty case, doing it's job in its "natural environment";)
[HD2 Accessories] liamR:
Nice pics mate... thanks.

Do you have a little bulge on the top of it ?
[HD2 Accessories] andi1977dog:
just got mine from nettimes, very high quality and snug fit for a fiver, brilliant ! oh and blacks back in stock now
[HD2 Accessories] Wevenhuis:
@LiamR:

There is a small bulge at the top around the camera lens (on the outside of the case, not the inside, the whole inside is flush), which prevents damage to it. I like the bulge. It doesn't affect the stability of the phone when you lay it on a surface.The bulge does not affect picturetaking or filming. If the phone rests face down (screen facing the surface) the phone rests on the edges of the case. The volume rocker is also entirely enveloped by the case (no opening), but the lining of the case is significantly thinner here. When you want to adjust the volume you can actually adjust the volume with the rocker through the case. you can see the thinner lining on the inside of the case, but not the outside. Still the rocker is intuitively easy to find and adjust. You can feel that you're pressing the rocker through the silicone case! Good stuff!
[HD2 Accessories] liamR:
Thanks for the replay, but I meant for this bulge -

Is it a defect or all of the Netimes Jelly cases have it ?
[HD2 Accessories] eskasi:
Got my PDair Luxury case today :) It fits great. not loose. I love the texture... the photos made me a little concerened but after handling the product in person, it didn't stand out too much and gives a nice look and feel to the case. Dust wont stick to this... the camera area also is raised and protects the lens....

Quite happy :D

Now waiting for my el cheapo 3 for $7.99 (with free intl shipping) rubberized hard backs in black, red and white. I was wondering how it would look and feel :) Could not resist at that price :P

[HD2 Accessories] Beefheart:
Mine has that too, purchased from the link above. Strange.
[HD2 Accessories] Wevenhuis:
I also have that tiny, hardly visible, "bulge" on the top left side of my silicone case. So I guess it is not an error per se. I didn't notice it untill I saw the picture. To be honest it isn't a bother to me. The case also costs 3 euros, so no worries there.
[HD2 Accessories] 96edwy:
ive got to say it is worth paying just that little bit extra for your case. i bought 2 cases on ebay for lik 3 quid which i think is like 5 dollers and when i put them on my hd2 and i noticed when i made a call the screen automatically went blank because the case was covering the sensor at the top. i also noticed that the mic hole wasnt exactly over the mic and the hardware buttons wernt aligned proprly with the case.
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] justpyro:
Hey all, the Sprint Hero comes with a charger that uses the usb cable to plug in to the phone. My problem is two-fold:

First, I like having a usb cord on me to charge where ever I go, and I don't like/am bad at remembering to take the usb cord out of the wall unit and pack with me in the morning.

Second, The usb cord isn't very long for a device that's plugged into an outlet near the ground (read: nearly every outlet in existence) and the usb cable barely reaches my desk for the phone to rest on.

Is there a decent charger that doesn't need our usb cable and has a couple extra feet in length? I don't want to get a universal charger because I don't want to fry the phone's charging system, which happened to my old Vogue. Everything I have found online is a universal type charger.

Has anyone had any experience with a good wall charger for the hero?

Thanks,

- JustPyro
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] foxmeister:
You are aware that a standard USB cable works with the Hero? No need to use the one that came with the phone.

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Accessories] Pillock:
Buy a longer USB-miniUSB lead, plug that into your home charger, and then carry the shorter one that HTC supplies around with you.

I've also found the stock one too short so I got a longer one, I also got a 3 inch long one to keep with me for tethering at work.... fits in my pocket nicely and it doesn't need to be any longer when the phone is sat next to my laptop.

These days I rarely find anywhere where I can't quickly borrow a miniUSB lead to charge my phone, they're used on so many different devices. Oh, and don't be afraid of 'universal' chargers - the Hero works with these fine, since USB is a 'universal' standard and 5v is 5v no matter where it comes from.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Accessories] ahmedmaher:
i have i mate jamin and its charge is empty then when i went to charge it >> strange thing happened it always charges for 4 hours but left it for 12 hours and it does not charge !!!!!!!!!!!!:mad:
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Accessories] Hexsaur:
I think your battery is deed. How long did you left it uncharged? You may try to do trick with directly connecting the battery to some ac adapter pin 1 + pin 6 - (the upper pin near camera is the pin 1). Use about 4 - 6 V on battery from ac adapter for about 15 - 25 sec (warning do not hold it to long like that coz it may make battery explode). Try that few times. After that put the battery back in the phone and try to charge it now. I hope this helps.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Accessories] Dr.Thrax:
try to charge the battery in a separate charger

hope this will help
[Touch HD General] svenvandevelde2:
Hi,

I have a strange problem. My touch HD switches on at random times. Very annoying if your phone is in your pocket and starts dialing other people without me knowing about it...

It started when I installed WM6.5 roms with Manilla 2.5.

I run currently on:

- OS version: 5.2.28002 (wm6.5 build 28002.5.3.0 pv)

- Manila version: 2.5.19211619.0

- ROM version: 1.59.841.5 WWE

- Radio version: 1.13.25.24

Anybody has the same experience or knows the root-cause and resolution for this?

thanks in advance,

Sven
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
hmm, not sure. As a temp solution until you sort out issue, why don't you set your device to auto-lock so if it did turn on, screen is locked?

Use either HD Tweak or Smart Lock
[Touch HD General] ronbo76:
You'd be surprised how easy it is for this type phone to turn on. Lots of times when I am headed out, I will turn on the GPS and activate iGO8 and put it in a loose coat pocket. The major offender seems to be the phone key on the left side of the phone but any of the other keys can activate the phone as well. Unless you use a lock program as suggested, any of these keys or even an incoming phone call can cause your phone to unlock and be a dialing-for-dollars fool.
[Touch HD General] svenvandevelde2:
Thanks for the answer. The device turns on, and the screen is locked automatically. The device is switched on automatically due to an unknown reason. (There must be one, for sure ...) However, I think that it is not due to an alarm setting or some sort of notification, because I disabled them all by now.

Also, when I leave the device untouched on a table, the screen switches on at random times ... So it cannot be a key that I touch accidentally...

Hope this provides a bit more input to diagnose this one ...

Sven
[Touch HD General] Advis:
I had this problem a while back when using PIM backup. My phone would come on at 00:01 every day in accordance with the scheduled backup occurring. I don't know why it did this but stopping the backup prevented anymore...ahem... "alien visitations" in the morning!

I would look at all the programs you have installed and go through the settings of each one until you find anything that starts on a schedule or is triggered by an event on the phone (e.g: data expiring for a TV listing application might trigger a background update). From that point on disable them one at a time until you, hopefully, find what is causing it.
[Touch HD General] A|ex:
I have a random bug too, mine auto turns off when you get a text or call, its totally random and happens once a month but its annoying when it does!
[Touch HD General] lostxp:
I have the same problem, at first i thought it because of the cooked ROMS but then i realized that it doesnt i tried ~10 different cook or original roms. Also contact HTC support but they dont solve the problem, just say hard reset :)

and someday i found the problem, the stylus switch on the phone. i thnink there is a problem with the magnet , it's so sensitive.

Try this press your finger right side(where stylus in) of the phone and see phone wakes up.
[Touch HD General] svenvandevelde2:
Nope, thanks for the advice, but that didn't solve the problem.

Sven
[Touch HD General] crypta:
think also it has something to do with the stylus... even if checking for this reasons, the switch on problem still look like a random one - but with stylus out, it never happens. maype theres some possibilty to disable this sensor permanently without storing the stylus at another place.

this error, acompany me for more than one year know, made me considering to throw the brick away and getting me some nice palm pre - I am done with HTC.

Flash this blank ext ROM (and only this) you will be able to use current ROM with no ext ROM.

However, I would recommend as enigma1nz and flash a new ROM also.
