Hi,

I have bought a HTC dream yesterday. When I press vol. down + power keys, it shows -

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H

HBOOT-1.33.0008 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-3.22.20.17

Apr 29 2009,2:28:53

But "Android System info" , "Free memory", "Systray Monitor" software show that the RAM is 192MB.

In the "About phone" I can see-

Baseband version- 62.525.20.18H_3.22.20.17

Build number - sapphire-user 1.6 DRC83 14721 ota-rel-keys

Which one is real? How to check the real RAM ?

Since I paid for 288MB RAM version and I want to have 288MB RAM version, so it is very important for me to know ASAP. So that I can claim and change/get refund.

Please help me on this.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DopyG:
From what I heard its true that only 192 RAM is useable of the 280...

The 32b also report to have 192 RAM on the paper, but about 92 is useable only...

So yeah you have a real 32a...

I'm not sure if I'm just looking in the wrong place, but I can't find the latest SMS hotfix on HTC website anymore. Is it because of some issues with the hotfix?
[HD2 General] SOLRAC13:
HTC HD2 messages get stuck in the outbox BUG

the hotfix is no good and even if it is in the web site i recommend you no to use it , rumors are there will be a new one today lets see , but i am no longer optimist that it would work :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] Gunzta:
Just downloaded fine for me.
[HD2 General] PG101:
We have it still on the Indian website

[HD2 General] thomas_pieps:
had the same problem, so did a little googl'ing and here is a mirror

HTC SMS Fix 2
[HD2 General] nadderf:
If HTC has removed it? why download from rapidshare? The hotfix isn't working :p
[HD2 General] thomas_pieps:
did you try before the comment because on my device it's working wonderfull.

No waiting time to send an sms, 50% faster and a highlight of the last recieved sms...

So I don't know why it isn't online anymore but it works...
[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
Something has corrupted my message notifications, so I no longer recieve sounds for messages and emails etc. Enough though the hot fix addressed the SMS loading thread issue, I bet it has caused the issue I currently have, as I havent installed anything else. The SMS loading issue may have been annoying at times, but there were easy work arounds. Not hearing or feeling when a message comes in is damn annoying!
[HD2 General] Archer:
After installing this hotfix on my phone, I downloaded my archived messages (about 2000 of them) and tried the SMS tab. Everything worked great, apart from the known and reported issues about the display going a little odd when it had loaded all messages.

Everything was fine and then my phone suddenly started running slower than my old HD used to. Everything was stuttering and laggy, and I mean the whole phone - not just the SMS tab.

After numerous restarts and turning things off and on again, I finally re-archived all my text messages so that there were none on the phone and guess what.... it's fine again now.

The hot"fix" wasn't so hot if you ask me.
[HD2 General] thomas_pieps:
Just change your ringtone, save, recieve an sms, change it back to the old one and it works again...
[HD2 General] thomas_pieps:
for the moment over 1700 messages in my phone and no problem of a laggy UI or programs. And I use TomTom for +/- 2hours a day, opera, rss reader & pdf for a few hours and my camera.

Wich rom are you using (I use Miri V2.0)
[HD2 General] smuppy:
wth... cant HTC do anything right?? Have they ever heard of quality assurance and testing before releaseing softwareupgrades?

*sigh*...
[HD2 General] Archer:
I'm using 1.48 official. I'm gonna leave it till 1.6 comes out before I choose whether or not to go unofficial.
[HD2 General] Guybrush_3pw00d:
I'm not sure what this thread is about, but I recently got my HD2 and it won't send all my SMS. Is this what the patch is for?
[HD2 General] thomas_pieps:
nope there for is the first update.

This update or hotfix is for the slow loading sms page when having a lot of stored messages.
[HD2 General] thomas_pieps:
I've tried that :) but the new documents tab was to appealing ;)
[HD2 General] Archer:
It does look nice, but I'd probably turn it off straight away as I'd never use it!
[HD2 General] ZaZu90:
Its available in the Middle eastern website
[HD2 General] enyaj:
I sent an email on the HTC Website and I got a reply that Hot Fix was pulled out because of compatibility issues.

Edit: by the way, they said a new one will be released soon.

any benifts to 6.5 on jan 20 ...campared to 6.1
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kyakubov:
heh?

heh? can you give more details about your question?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] biscuits1978:
He's talking about the WinMo 6.5 upgrade for T-Mobile that is scheduled for official release on 1/20. It's the same leaked one that has been floating around for the last week or so.

To answer the question, I was running it for about 4-5 days. It's a solid ROM, but it's nothing to brag about. It's actually a little slower than most cooked ROMs offered in this forum. If you haven't done HardSPL and tried a cooked ROM, I would suggest doing so. You can always re-SPL/lock your phone if you need to return it for warranty purposes, and now that there is an official T-Mobile ROM you can just re-SPL/lock and then flash the 6.5 T-Mobile ROM to send it back.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cgigate:
T-mobile already official released WM 6.5 two days ago, (it is the same one leaked few weeks ago), see here http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1611377

It is a very crappy ROM
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
It's the official version, I'm sure, but it's not officially released until it shows up here: Windows Mobile Upgrade. The fact that the link is hidden -- i.e., it's not published on T-Mobile's website nor on HTC's website -- means that they haven't released it.

I don't think it's crappy. Sure, that's a matter of opinion...but I've been running custom roms for months that are well beyond T-Mo's WM6.5, and I have to say it's not bad.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Greyfoxzero:
I like the new Tmo rom out now but in time will look at some other roms. Just want to make sure that the official go gets my official go lol. I can tell some effort was put into it so its not bad at all.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kable:
Looks to be legit, I stand corrected.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
The one I flashed from the hidden-official link (not the leaked link of 7-Jan) has the "Stick Together" boot screen...which is T-Mo USA.

My phone didn't have that boot screen...lost it months ago when I first flashed a custom (WWE) rom.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] temperbad:
ive been running it now since it was leaked, and I love it.... Im staying on this rom more than likely, but I want to try a custom rom, as its been a while since I flashed any cooked ones........... Of topic but whats a good leo 6.5.3 rom with the least bugs???????? Anyone??????????
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ai6908:
Keep flashing...keep reading...it all depends on what your taste is like, and what you use your phone for!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] temperbad:
i hate hearing keep flashing and reading..... Lol read any thread on any custom rom and its nothing but issues..... Im not into taste, I want stability, if ya cant suggest that, please dont suggest the obvious which ive already done, just wondering if anyone could steer in the right bugless rom direction....... But ill do what I always do, read and get discouraged from all the complaints........ thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] thaddyusmaximus:
I've been running the leaked rom for about 1 week now and so far it's a little slower than the stock 6.1 rom. Probably because it consumes more resources. My memory is always around 60% when it used to be 50% on the old rom.

The bugs i've found were:

I'm getting will not wake from standby about 1-3 times a day.

Music will not play after a soft reboot or after connected to the PC in Mass Storage Mode. It seems the media is scanning in the background but there's no message saying so. It would take about 20 mins before a file can be played for 6gigs of music.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] goatcheese:
Looking to install the new Rom, it's official now.

I've been using Timor for the past month or so and I've loved it. Very fast and Very stable. I've only had a couple problems where it freezes in the transition from texting to the home screen. Other than that it's my fav so far.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cekc:
The cooked ROMs off of this site have worked out better for me than the stock ones. If I find something that doesn't work I can complain about it and the chef get around to fixing the problem. Try getting T-Mobile to fix something and then post it in a decent amount of time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] YOSEFE:
In my view, cooked ROMS are way way ahead of stock roms, be they wm6.1 or wm6.5.

The stock built ROMS are too "flat", less imaginative and too much of light weights for devices with unlimited potential like my tp2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tinpanalley:
I just gotta say that temperbad does have a point. As someone who likes to hear technical issues as well rather than personal thoughts, it can be a bit frustrating to be trying to get some real bugs, issues with a ROM and have to wade throught comments about colors of screens, and how nice the buttons look. I wanna know a) what goes wrong, b) how does it happen, c) is there a fix. Whether the start menu seems shinier than others is irrelevant to me. Perhaps others feel the same?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] 1milenia:
well i flashed the 6.5 ...its ok ,i like it ...but nothing extra special about it ...the 6.1 was almost the same...all they did was add a few extra features and colors...with my original 6.1 i could get the same cabs of this site,but it is stable...my next move would be flashing a cooked rom ...but i dont now which one till i read the bourd
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] a2002cmacg:
Flash It!

I flashed it about a week ago and I really, really like it. The RAM usage IS slightly higher, but I would think that's to be expected. But IMO, the new ROM is faster than the old stock 6.1 ROM I was using. Very stable and no freezes and the like, and that is after adding a couple thousand contacts, syncing a gazillion text messages, and adding a boatload of programs. Plus WM 6.5 is negligibly better aesthetically than 6.1....but better nonetheless.

The plan was to try the stock ROM along with a couple other custom ROMs on the same day...but I've been really satisfied with the stock ROM. Which the exception of Sense 2.5, I personally don't know what I'm missing with the custom ROMs...but I'd love it if someone would tell me specifically what that is.

On the same note, as a new member to this site, I love the forum format for FAQ's and such, but I really wish the site was easier to filter through. For instance, I considered flashing a "Energy" ROM. After deciphering the thread topics and finding his kitchen, then seeing that that there were about a million posts in the thread, I just got lazy and stuck with the stock ROM:eek: What if each cook had a "store" that he or she controlled with multiple threads in his store for each ROM and iteration of them...? Though I'm new to this community, I don't believe you would sacrifice the essence of the site with more usability. I guess that would take some web developers and additional resources so it's probably wishful thinking. But since they're talking about bringing in non-HTC phones I don't think it should be out of the question.

I also didn't realize initially that a lot of the themes, task bars, ROM's, software, and etc that are compatible with the TP2 are actually in other phone forums that run WM 6.1+ and Sense UI. Then of course, there's the generic applications and themes forums. It can be a bit much at times if you're anal like me and you want a certain clock and a specific taskbar. I don't mind searching at all, but try a search for "transparent clock" or "htc taskbar" only if you're brave...

ANYHOO *back on the trail* I like the new TMO 6.5 ROM. I don't have any benchmark tests or anything, but it "feels" faster to me. And far as I can tell, some of the cooked ROMs are stock ROMs with built in themes, minus bloatware, added tweaks, and built in software. I do all that stuff myself anyways:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] su3ng:
Try b16b's roms, 6.5.3 leo is awesome least buggiest one for me, and I've tried them all (even the legendary energy roms). You just need to install leo 2g dialer I think because the dialer will be missing, oh and it uses x2 task mgr (no task mgr in others 6.5.1 roms) and Ms stock msg. You'll be missing alot of things but you can always add it, I did.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] 1milenia:
no thanks he needs to finish the rom ...so we dont have to add cab files

I bought a transcend 8gb class 6, ended up being junk, wouldn't even partition. So what do you guys use for hero roms or recommend?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VoLoDaR1:
wow i bought the same card it is awesome for me you mite wanna try and get a refund for it or swap it out im going to eventually get a 32 gig class 6 card
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiddengopher:
ok, well I returned it yesterday, so maybe I'll get it off buy.com and try it out. How did you format yours to fat32?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VoLoDaR1:
i did mine with amon ras 1.5.2 when you partition it you leave the remainder fat 32
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiddengopher:
so say I was installing a large rom like espresso, under partition I would do

128 swap/512 ext/ and then just press home for the last one?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
96 swap is best, but yes that is what you should do
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VoLoDaR1:
he is right but i always go with 128 :D

Hey guys,

I'm looking for some help in these categories.

It has to do with Smart Reconfigurable Antenna's using MEMS technology.

I'm just looking for the basics, and if anyone can help with more advanced stuff one on one as well as the basics I'm willing to pay them for their help. ($20+?, or whatever is needed).

Basically, I need to know some things:

What type of technology and antenna's are we using currently in most smart phones.

If these are the types, I need details on them.

If it is a different type, what do these smart reconfigurable antenna's have that makes them better than our current. Can we envision people switching to reconfigurable antenna's in the future for cell phones?

Just some things like this.
[General Topics] schwalbach:
Just wondering if anyone has heard of this at all?

Should I have posted this in another forum?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] novat:
Just wanted to ask why it is that the 2.1 roms out there don't have the new launcher or gallery apps?

For me the most exciting thing about 2.1 is the new launcher but every 2.1 rom I have tried still has the old pull-up tray. I was under the impression that the main things that made 2.1 visually different to 2.0 were the new launcher and gallery?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] Brainze:
You have to remember that the developers are trying to "port" this stuff over from the Nexus One... a new phone with a 1ghz processor and more RAM than that of our G1s and MT3Gs...

That new Nexus ONE also has 3D hardware acceleration. This is the primary reason why the gallery and app menus from 2.1 "Eclair" work well on it and not our phones.

Have patience; we'll get them soon, but it will take time to get it working.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] novat:
Thanks for the response rbrainard.

I get that it probably won't run very well on our older tech. But I just found it weird that it wasn't included in at least some of the roms just as a proof of concept type thing?

Or, is it just that those two particular apps won't run on our phones yet? Constant FC's or something?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] Brainze:
It's more or less a "backporting" issue...

Like taking a sweet looking Windows Vista Aero theme and getting it to work on Windows 2000... ??? If that's a good analogy?

The way those softwares are currently developed is specifically for they hardware intended... As we have different hardware... a software revamp is required.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] mejorguille:
This rom has them, as well as live wallpapers, in the beta version. I've only used the basic rom though, so I can't comment on how it works.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] novat:
Yeah i saw that one, really impressive that they've managed to get it to work so far! I guess now we just need to wait until someone manages to resize and optimize the App to work on our smaller screens / processors. :)

[HD2 General] gonsped:
Hi Guys,

This has sorta been covered in the Google Mobile forum but I have yet to see anyone that has tested the Google Latitude in their HTC HD2.

The thing is, Latitude works but with 2 serious practical flaws:

1. Phone must be on, no standby so only can do minimum backlight.

2. Latitude does not work when Mobile Google Maps is

minimised

, ie. if you lock the device and although the phone is on, Latitude won't update.

What the Latitude suppose to do:

1. Still update location even if Google Maps minimised (phone must be on)

2. Still update location even if Google Maps has exited, but you check the "Yes" option for background updating (phone must be on)

So in real terms, you can't even put the phone in your pocket as the screen is not locked and it could start dialling someone in your contact list, let alone change settings for other programs.

It would be nice if Latidude can do its 2 main features above properly with the phone turned off, ie. you can still receive a call when the phone is off, weather still updates when the phone is off.

Anyone with similar issues I would appreciate any comments you may have.
[HD2 General] Spiders:
Hi, I have this problem, too.
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
Mine does update the position when GM are closed nad 'yes' is choosen. Every 20 minutes, as it is supposed to do. It also uses only fast BTS fix, not GPS.

GM use notification (low-level alarm) to wake the phone up after 20 minutes and update the position. You can you for example FDC task manager to check if the notification exists after closing GM. It has page with notifications. You should see something with 'google' there, with time set 20 minutes after the GM exit.

http://www.dotfred.net/TaskMgr.htm

I'm not sure how it works with GM only minimized. Will report later.
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
It seems to update the location once per 20 minutes also when minimized (and not asleep (in charger).
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
Works every 20 minutes with application minimized and device asleep.

Btw. my version is 3.3.1
[HD2 General] VFaceR:
Latitude updates work or not.

Maybe my experiences helps.

I've been using the HD2 for a few weeks now. During initial startup several questions are asked. One of them seems to be if you want to allow location updates to be send from your phone.

Out of the box I had some time and answered all these questions. Next few weeks my friends tell me my Latitude position was being updated. I never started Google Maps though. Not once.

After a few weeks I had to upgrade the ROM (SMS bug). This time I did not take the time to answer all the questions (next next skip skip). In my opinion I would be able to set these settings in several menu's later on. As from this point on Latitude behaves like reported on this thread. Only updates when Maps is active.
[HD2 General] lyubohar:
Sorry to wake this topic but it seems still unresolved and I have some input.

Given that you have accepted the terms and conditions, especially location updates to be sent from your phone, Google Maps should update your position every 20 minutes, regardless whether it is running or not.

Once we have program settings out of the way as a reason, I think the problem is not related to Google Maps at all, but is actually an internet connection issue. In other words, I think GM is correctly updating your position every 20 minutes, it just cannot send it over the Internet for other people (and yourself) to use it.

Why do I think so? Because I have exactly the same problem as you guys describe, but only while at home. As strange as it sounds, the moment I go to my office, my position is perfectly updated every 20 minutes (I can see it on my Google account), but when I leave the office, my location stops updating. Mind it I never change any settings when I enter my office so this cannot be related to any activity I did. The only way I can explain this is that when I leave the office, my phone fails to connect and transmit my position, while it succeeds while I'm in the office.

As a next step I am trying to troubleshoot internet connections. I think the phone is using wifi to transmit location information. If it was using the GSM network, it wouldn't behave differently when I am on different places (the mobile operator is always the same and the Internet settings are always the same).

HTC 'Supersonic' to ring in WiMAX on Sprint, Android-style

By Chris Ziegler posted Jan 17th 2010 10:51PM

Exclusive

Remember that mysterious HTC A9292 with WiMAX rumored for Sprint a few days back? Well, take a seat, folks -- we think we've got the lowdown on it here from a trusted source, and it's a bit of a monster:

* Codename is "Supersonic" -- a name we've heard at least once before.

* Feels a lot like you'd expect an Android-powered HD2 to feel thanks to a 4.3-inch non-AMOLED display and a svelte shell. (For reference, the HD2 is 11mm thick, but we don't have exact dimensions here.)

* It's got a kickstand on the back. This wouldn't be a first for HTC; the Imagio on Verizon has one, for example.

* Runs Android 2.1 with HTC's Sense UI.

* Our tipster saw it in white; production devices could be available in different colors, of course, but white seems like it'd be an intriguing choice for a phone of the HD2's size and shape.

* The phone's software stack is buggy enough right now to suggest that we're not looking at a release any time soon, but we don't have details on the projected launch window.

* It's fast -- Snapdragon fast, it seems, though our tipster can't confirm the processor under the hood.

We know 2010's just begun, but between all this noise and the promise of a legitimate 4G radio on board, let's be real -- we're already looking at a very, very early contender for smartphone of the year. Let's not run into any major roadblocks between here and retail, alright, guys?
