I can't be certain of this, but I think this program caused some massive troubles for my HD2.

About 36 hours ago I started to be greeted by a turned off device every time I picked up my phone, having to pop off the back and remove the battery for a restart. Then this morning the same thing had happened but it wouldn't even turn on after trying to reboot... the battery had completley drained from ~80%. I recharged it but once it was unplugged it went back to shutting off.

I removed the ScreenSaver program since it's the only thing I've done recently and now things seem like they are back to normal... a few hours and no shut downs.

Edit: I guess I should mention that I had added the application file to my startup folder so it would work automatically, but I really don't see how this would cause the issues explained above.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] srgudhka:
any further progess here.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Shawn_230:
Yes, actually. Even though there is nothing technical to my conclusion, I'm fairly certain my problems were caused entirely by this program. I guess I forgot to report back since this thread sort of died... I wonder if l3v5y found it to be problematic or he just decided to move on?

Even though I've moved on and flashed to 1.66 since then, I had the same ROM for a while without the screensaver app and didn't experience any random shutdowns for what must have been near ten days at least.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BboyFido:
It would be good to have an option to be able to have your pictures in your fone as a slideshow screensaver too.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] l3v5y:
I've been working on this a little this morning...

I've added a few things, including wallpapers, notifications and customisation of colours of text.

I've also improved performance (and attempted to make it not hog resources when not in the foreground).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] djyosnow:
Nice Program

Seriously I have to reg. edit the features. Well thanks a million for this cool program. I'm still trying to tweak it! I did notice it seems like it does not lock my screen though?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dotcompt:
Great app mate,

My suggestions if I may:

. Keep it simple

. Make it a lockscreeny like thing is an amazing idea. If you manage to do it like the HD Mini unlock Screen assigned to the Power Button, and you are not very far, you´ll turn this app one of the best windows mobile apps ever.

Thanks

Which cab is the latest? And please can you make it to change places in the screen? (maybe is better for the pixels?) Thank you very much, very nice application, we at the wm needed it!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] appan:
This Design is Perfect, Plz Consider.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kralex95:
Sorry about my "stupid" question (I am new to WM phones). How can I make Screensaver to stay always in the screen (the screen after a while turns off). I have OMNIA II with the latest firmware. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bandi926:
You should work again on TG01 rom development!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] piotrxda:
I would rather suggest not to create next lock screen. I think better idea is using AMOLED screen features and add some information when screen is off. AMOLED screens don't take energy when display black color. So, displaying on black screen email/SMS/call notification + clock would be great.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kralex95:
I agree on that. It is a very good idea
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MalekoUK:
Great app, but I cant find the registry settinsg anywhere... :S

no where in my registry are the entries that have been mentioned...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] brewhoxs:
Gonna try it fast on my O2 XDA Atom device ... :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] birkoffsjunk:
I have a suggestion if I may, would there be any way to create an analog version that is akin to the Blackberry Bold clock app?

For me ideally it could do this (So I can use my HD2 as a clock during the night while docked)...

Open when docked

Keep screen on but disable backlight or reduce to minium

Tap to close / minimize

Close when undocked

I'd be even willing to pay a nominal fee for such an app :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kralex95:
Helloooooo, is anybody out there????:) Do we have any improvement on the project? It will be very nice!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] firetiger:
The best thing to do would to transform this into a lockscreen. I'm desperately in need of one and I've tried every lockscreen out there.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kralex95:
I agree on that but is anybody listening, like the CREATOR:)?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Trekfan422991:

I might be being a bit slow here, but I've just held down the menu button on my Nexus One when at the home screen and noticed that the keyboard appears and you can start typing and it'll fill in the search.

SC
[Nexus One General] bradyonly:
Holding menu anywhere forces the keyboard to pop up. It's pretty handy and it's a good find none-the-less.
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
hey did you know holding down the button on top pops open a window that lets you go into airplane mode, silent mode, or even power the phone off??? :eek:
[Nexus One General] Abbsta:
..and holding down the search button pops up voice search.
[Nexus One General] formatamerica:
...and reading the ****ing instruction card which has a total of like four or five sentences will cover all of this.

....and knowing that no one reads that stuff should go without saying.
[Nexus One General] rantrav:
To make this short, sweet, and to the point: if someone can tell me how to view only 'full sites' with the browser that would be great. Also, without using an outside browser app. Devs please feel free to delete when felt necessary. I tried a search but didn't come up with anything....:confused:

Thanks

[Nexus One General] JoshHart:
I suggest using dolphin browser, go into settings > user agent > desktop. I'm not sure about the default browser, haven't used it in a while, but I know a lot of times at the bottom of a site it will have the option to view full site.
[Nexus One General] iVisionX01:
Interesting it looks like the feature was removed. I remember on 1.6 you could switch between Android, iPhone, or Desktop.
[Nexus One General] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I believe that was just on the custom browser made by Loccy(sp?). It was based off the regular browser source code, but was still basically custom made.
[Nexus One General] rantrav:
True. I guess that I had been using ROMs for so long that I had forgotten that the original didn't have that. Guess I will just have to wait a little longer. But some on the sites do have the option but some of them just load straight back to the mobile view on I select it. But no biggy.

MODs please feel free to delete this thread whenever. We can leave it at 'that option will probably be put into a future ROM'.

Hey guys,

I got a google g1, and I have loved it on its stock 1.6. However I wanted to root it and get it. up to android 2.0 using various roms around here. Anyways, so I followed the how to thread and it got me downgraded to rc 29, but everytime I try to boot into recovery mode and apply the hardspl update from my sdcard, I get an error that it says it is not verified, and that the update failed...any way around this?

Thanks!

Hi everyone.

I wanted to trial some WM software that, eventually, may make it onto Windows Marketplace for Mobile. It is a Wi-Fi remote that will talk to your PC and do things like remote control of WMP (or Media Center on Vista), and do other remote control-type things (like remote lock of your PC). See attachment for screengrab.

If anyone is interested in having a play, please send me a PM. I am looking for about 5-10 folk who are feeling brave and are ready to try this out. Note that you'll need Vista or Win7 and a WM6.1 or higher device with Wi-Fi.

Thanks in advance.

Hi you all, i installed the new update for HTC HD2 – New SMS Function Update [14.01.2010], and untill know all is greath but i noticed that the size of the text in the sms conversation mode is changed, the smallest is now very big... and i would like to put is the same size is was before (really small), is it possible to tweak any reg or someting to but the size correclly?

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lrbpereira:
Well i found it out myself...

regedit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/HTC/HTCMESSAGING/FONTS/FontScale

Edit the value to 5.

Works like a charm ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lrbpereira:
Well this change on the registry don´t work 100%, the size was ok for a moment, after the text on conversation mode simple vanish.

Any ideas? :mad:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Heinemancp:
hi, i got the same problem. i thought it was my own fault, but fortunately not ;) so now just wait uhtil htc release the hotfix for the hotfix.

other question, when i go to conversation modus it takes about 30sec before i can reply because the phone need to load all the previous textmessages... is there any way to let the phone load about the latest 10 messages?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Russinating:
I need a fix for this too as I used to use the smallest font size!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Get the latest sms hotfix off the HTC site. It fixes this issue so you can type immediately.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Heinemancp:
i installed that fix yesterday and it was all wrong, big text and couldn't type while loading al the messages, i reinstalled it today and i got no problem at all... the text is smal again and you could type while your phone is loading al the messages!

unforunately, in the conversationmodus it says -GSM at the end of all messages, with longer messages it's stated trough the last sentence... not perfect at all, but much better. i wasn't using the conversation modus at all! and now i will!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lrbpereira:
With me the smallest texts size is like the previous normal size... I sent a help request to HTC, let´s see what the say... The GSM issue has a fix on other post on the rom section...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mightymn:
Interestingly, the font size is extremely small in the traditional view with this new hotfix.

A question: did you download it again and re-installed or did you re-install the same file? It's really strange if the same file has changed things for you.

*checked now and the file on the server today is the same as the file from yesterday
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Russinating:
Reinstalled the hotfix and still the same - using "Smaller" or "Smallest" I can't even see the text content, just the name and date.

Anyone got any ideas? :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nutmegy:
I did a soft reset a few times and it now works. along with the registry edit
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Skyatob:
can you change the collor of the text ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] choccy31:
Hi,

A few months ago I uninstalled an older version of the free mybackup Pro app which I had as at the time as I wasn't going to use it, but have decided that with the upcoming (hopefully) 2.1 update I would back up my phone however when I tried to install and run it, it would not let me use and told me to update to the full version.

How can I remove the older registry files to enable me to back up on the free version for the time being if at all?

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
there is no such thing as a registry. uninstalling apps also removes the settings for the app, everything is gone then.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] choccy31:
Thats what I thought but it still wont work?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
execute this in adb shell, does it give any output?

ls -1 /data/data/ | grep -i backup

if so try to delete the file.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] choccy31:
How do I access adb shell?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akuma24:
you need to have downloaded the sdk software, once you have setup file associations its a matter of opening up a command prompt, changing to your tools directory

c:\>cd \sdk\tools

C:\sdk\tools>

Then type the code above,
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] choccy31:
thanks for that, will take a look.

Experts, I'm desperate! I gave my lil bro my old phone, but stupid enough of me, I left all of my settings the way it was, also the exchange settings with work. He logged on with msn and synced all his contacts, agenda, tasks etc with my contacts etc. And now I lost everything! How can I do a roll back? :(

Old phone is an WM 6.1 HTC touch cruise (phone of my lil bro), the new phone is the HTC HD2 WM 6.5 (my own), don't think this will matter though.

Thanks!

-edit

I still have the old outlook.ost file, where I found my 'old' contacts and calendar items. But when I tried to sync it says it need to make contact with the server, but I dont want that! How can I achieve this?

Windows 7 with windows mobile device centre 6.1
[General Questions and Answers] Felsenquelle:
Hi,

- disconnect the line to the server, that there is no syncronization

- put the .ost file in the Outlook directory

- start Outlook

- copy inside of the open outlook the folders calender and contacts from the exchange part to the personal part of outlook

- export these two new folders to .pst files

- connect to the exchange server and sycronize

- import the .pst files into the syncronized exhange folders

That's it

[Nexus One General] OldSkoO1:
I'm in the UK and want to save $20 on the charger

I have a couple of Micro USB wall chargers that i use on my blackberry. They will fit the N1 and plug straight into the wall. Would they be safe to use, to charge my N1. (These charges are rated 750mHA).

I know the N1 will be supplied with a micro USB cable. I also have an IPhone wall socket plug head, the ones where you just put the USB cable into the plug and then it goes into the wall. Are these safe to use too, for charging the N1?

Thanks
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
the Nexus one connector is standar microUSB and therefore will work with standard microUSB cables and chargers.
[Nexus One General] OldSkoO1:
So there is no type of resistor or transformer in the official plug head? ... to restrict power. I thought there would be as my blackberry charger has a 750mha rating on it.

I can understand the USB cable will work as its a limited power output from a laptop port. But just wanted to check the official wall outlet plug current isn't being restricted. The last thing i want to do is fry my new N1.

Cheers,
[Nexus One General] gunn0r:

[Nexus One General] blunden:
The specs for the wall charger are 5V and 1A.

[Nexus One General] m00moo:
do what i did. remove the charger from your basket and use the supplied USB with an old htc charger if you have one. If not get one for a few quid from ebay :) why spend $20 when you can get one for $5 odd from the market/ebay.

this mini, micro, A B stuff is annoying. to clarify for my simple mind, will usb cables that fit into my G1 fit into the N1? or is it a different size?
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
Last year, Micro USB was decided as the open standard for cell phone chargers, so this should be replacing Mini USB as seen on earlier phones (BlackBerries, G1) in instances where the port isn't.. some.. proprietary crap. :mad:

Edit:

No. The G1 used Mini USB, this is Micro USB. The phone comes with a charger and USB (USB-A 2.0 to Micro USB 2.0) cable.
[Nexus One General] iVisionX01:
It's not propitary so it will work with any other charger.
[Nexus One General] TonyHoyle:
It's a funny thing to find. It's too new to be widely available

I went looking for a car charger and a straight USB A->Micro B cable. The former I found by poking in all the packages for different phones until I found it (found a Samsung charger that uses it, although they did want nearly £30 for the damned thing). The USB A->Micro B I drew a blank - the more clueless salesmen tried to convince me that I was mistaken and I meant Mini!

I thought the blackberry used them but I looked in the pile of blackberry cables the local shops had and they were all mini. Even my local electronics store has every kind of USB imaginable *except* micro.

Edit: Found one! (might be useful for UK users). It's out of stock though... http://www.cableuniverse.co.uk/catalog/cables/USB-A-to-Micro-USB-B-Cable.html
[Nexus One General] SANTilt:
Just so you guys know, not all micro USB's are the same. I bought a car charger from a local Tmo store last week (I forget what phones it was for), and although it "worked" when the plug was perfectly perpendicular to the phone, it had quite a bit of lateral play (which the OEM plug does not), meaning anytime it moved in the car, it would stop charging.

I returned it, and am now just waiting for HTC to decide to manufacture accessories for this ever increasing bundle of worry...
[Nexus One General] m3nster:
I am using a TomTom charger for my N1, also the HTC hero and the Motorola Droid chargers works to charge my N1.
[Nexus One General] TaFFeR:
Seems like it was just a poor quality charger. If it's a micro USB, it should be built to specific specifications. I already bought a few chargers (including a car charger) and cables (for work, home and travel), and they all work perfectly. Technically ALL micro USBs should be the same, unless the manufacturer didn't follow the standards.
[Nexus One General] SANTilt:
Hah, just my luck; I pick up the one out of spec micro USB charger in the entire city!

Although, it must be that particular T-Mobile supplier, as I went to another store and test fitted the same charger, and it had excessive wiggle as well. Either that or my phone is just lame...
[Nexus One General] stewart1988:
I just got a universal charger in Tesco for £5 that has changeable heads (Micro, Mini, Samsung, Sony Ericsson and Nokia 2mm)

Works perfect :)
[Nexus One General] kam187:
- The cable is standard USB. You can use it to charge the phone from your PC, or use another micro USB cable or charger you have

- The Nexus comes with a US 2 pin charger that is dual voltage - works in UK and US. Just spend 50p and get a US to UK convertor plug.

- The charger is rates 5v 1A, so if you have another microUSB charger with the same voltage use that.

I find charging from the charger results in more battery life than USB. The only explanation is charge rate because USB is 500mA and the charger is 1000mA

PS. I removed the UK charger from the order too. You get the US charger regardless in the box.

I am having an issue with the following apps in the Apps screen on my Nexus

after downloading these apps from the Market, the text under the icons seems to be off to the right in the main applications screen, but if i make a shortcut for the same app onto the home screen, the text under the icons in the home screen is properly aligned...

Anyone else having this issue?

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Ssantos6981:
what do you mean text misalignment? In my app menu I have apps that the word isn't spaced and 1 or 2 letters continue underneath the icon.

Is that what you mean?

if so, where did you go to change your locale?

I have this problem as well. I don't think it's the same as the ops.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] dandv:
Reboot fixes this

I saw the same for "Wikitude": the text started a few spaced to the right underneath the icon, as if starting with a Tab. I rebooted and the problem was fixed. Then I installed "g-Lock demo", and had the same problem. Another reboot fixed that too.

I dont like having all the clouds floating across the screen, I think its a waste of space+ it makes my 1ghz -.- leo lag.

So Ive tried changing the homewallpaper to animated then choosing my own 480x800 wallpapers, but once I set them, I go back to check on the homescreen and I still have the default stuff on there :( Ive tried restarting ect, nothing.

You can see what rom im running from my signature, Im not sure if thats making any difference. I think the problem may be the fact that I just tried to install Vovichek_Jamrecords 16 quicklinks, but it didnt work, I got the screen attached to this thread, so I uninstalled it and everything went back to normal, or so I thought, may this be the problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
The method you described should work. I can only guess that you're right about the ROM or the 16 quicklinks affecting it.
