just got off the phone to voda aswell, the guy said htc will be making a fix in the near future 4 vodafone devices, couldnt tell me when however

Quick edit: just called me back and said to call 01753218960 he said they could give more info, maybe if everyone calls them and bugs them for the voda fix they might pull their fingers out
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
Ok guys...

here is what i have been told by the people in charge at Vodafone:

Toward the end of January 2010 an application will be released to Vodafone customers that fixes all of the current software issues with the HD2.

With regard to ROM updates... they are working on it... however the Vodafone device team is a couple of firmware revisions behind HTC.

If you have a hardware fault then there is no replacement stock (unless you are a business customer i presume).

You will be offered a repair on your device OR a replacement (if you are eligible). Your replacement device will be of equivalent spec or value to the HD2.

Here are the questions i have asked in reponse:

Which devices exactly can Vodafone offer as replacements to the HD2?

What exactly are the changes being made to the original firmware for Vodafone customers?

I hope to hear thorough responses shortly.

On a side note... my own individual issues with my HD2 have now been rectified due to some rare excellent customer service from certain members of staff at Vodafone.

If you are reading this you know who you are and thankyou.

Still... the future may not be so bright for other Vodafone customers who have been sold an HD2 directly.
[HD2 General] paulking:
meh, upgraded to 1.66 and now (so far) all the issues seem to be gone. :)
[HD2 General] cMMY69:
UPDATED 27/01/10] Official firmware updates for Vodafone customers.

I'm really sorry that you guys are having these problems with Vodafone. I had the exact same thing with my original Samsung Omnia. They only released 1 update for it and that was ages after Samsung released it. Now it looks like they are committing to release an update as they did before and i really expect that to be the last they release (I hope I'm wrong). I was lucky enough to have been able to buy an unbranded phone when first released in the UK as I didn't trust Vodafone) and update it regularly (but my Vodafone insurance doesn't cover it, only my Omnia).

Here is a question for you, is this issue only in relation to Vodafone or do all service providers who resell WinMo handets perform a shocking job on software updating?

Regards.

Hello,

Since I've upgrade in 6.5 with HTC's Rom, I cannot update weather ....

I've got a message : connection error, an error during load of weather datas is append, retry ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
Several things can cause this.

First check your connection settings.

Can you connect through WiFi?

Lastly, you may need to update your database, depending on where you are located, you may have to search for a weather fix.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
Check your proxy server in Settings\Connections\Connections\Manage Existing Connections\Proxy Settings. Make sure "This network connects to thge Internet" is checked and ..."Uses a Proxy Server" is unchecked and remove any proxy server listed.

Then go to Advanced\Select Networks, now if you're on AT&T you would set both networks to MediaNet., so I'm not sure what you have there.

I just passed my 8525 to my wife and set it up to synch with her computer.

Everything is working except that the device KEEPS synching. It finishes then a couple minutes later it kicks in again as long as it is plugged into the computer.

Any idea how to stop this? She uses her PC to charge the phone so we do not want to unplug it after synching.

The phone has the latest AT&T Rom. Activesync is 4.5. It was working fine for her 8125 but the usb connector on the phone broke so no more charging.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
(Updated with a version that shows a little horizontal line on the taskbar. One can now easily move the "activation area". See attached image titled "v2".

This will work on all WM versions:

Note for WM 6.5.x users: the activation area can not be placed on the clock!

Note for WM 6.5 users: setting the offset of the first setting on the option/view tab to 393 will place the horizontal line above the battery)

Note: after installation you have to start Quickmenu manually (/Program Files/QMenu/Quickmenu.exe). Another option is to do a softreset (Quickmenu is set up to start automatically after a softreset.

-----

For users familiar with Nanlings Quickmenu (QM):

I've substituted the icons in quickmenu with transparant icons so you can place the "Q button" on the taskbar where ever you like. I've made a cab installation file that will also modify the registry entry for quickmenu in such a way that

a) the transparant Q-button is placed exactly on the battery icon of the WM 6.5.3 taskbar (setted the offset of the Q pic to 371). Very nice for one-handed operation with your right hand.

b) the running tasks are placed by default in the root of the QM-menu. This transforms QM basically in a sophisticated taskmanager. I like that more.

I thought is was wortwhile to share these modifications. Just check it out, maybe you like it.

For users not familiar with Quickmenu I like to refer to this thread There you can grab the unmodified program that will work on all WM version (including WM 6.5.3 and 6.5.5)

And...

Instructions about how you can make this work on a rom with a different language can be found here. (Problem is that when you run the program on a rom with a different language code you then 0409, which is the code for WWE-roms, you get unreadable characters)

BTW, is there more mui with Quickmenu to have it in our own language ?

Thanks a lot
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dXsL:
thanks for the adjustments have not tried them yet but will. question though:

I've been using QM since I saw it in one of nrg28 ROMs. the version I downloaded (no clue where from) behaves differently:

- no action if I tap the battery button, other than notification bar showing

- QM is activated by pressing left-top on taskbar (where previous Start was, now typically black area)

- and, and this is the best part imho, it is activated by a short press on the Windows HW button :) no need to reprogram long press of Send or End button. brilliant!

to be honest, and definitely not want deminish your hard work, these are 3 pretty nice advantages. or am I missing something?

I don't use the Q icon (default disabled) because I couldn't see the point since the Start button/text disapeared. Battery drain is not noticable.

because of default short press on Windows hardware button feature, it is perfect for task SWITCHING. task manager is of course also directly accessible.

Really coooool man thanx a lot
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
You're right, without any modifications it is as beautiful as it is :) !

The only thing I did was to modify it for one-handed operation. I discoverd that almost everything I do is with the right tumb while holding my device in my hand. Because of this everything what is on left side of the screen is almost out of reach. (even the bottom startbutton. I have small hands, you see). That's why I created an activation field on the battery-meter by using a transparant Q-icon. Transparant, so you see the battery-icon.

Try it, you love it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
According to this forum-member, who introduced me to this great app btw, you can change it to you language by just changing the code of mui files to the desired language code.

Great work!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Yes, someone has made a finger-friendly setup for the HD2 along with some instructions of how to change the language. Look for it here

But you can try this version as well. It should give you an "activation field" somewhere around the battery icon. (don't know exactly where, but you can play with it, see first post). Very nice for one-handed operation.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] rbiez:
by changing the mui files you wont change the language interface itself, simply only making it usable in non-wwe roms (all text will turn out as squares if you dont do this)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Ai, my fault. Thanks for correcting me.

For those who want to get it working in their own language: you can edit

Program Files\Qmenu\QMenuCfg.dll.0409.mui
Program Files\Qmenu\QuickMenu.exe.0409.mui

with the tools from this thread.

(don't forget to change the language code afterwards)

Maybe it's a good idea to share these translated mui files. Post them in this thread and I will point to them in the first post.

Thks :D

It's work fine !!! (in english now lol)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dXsL:
You were right: tried it, LOVE it :)

TIP1: to make QuickMenu window pop-up by a single press of the Windows key (the part I think is great to use it as a Task switcher): open QuickMenu window / select Quickmenu / select Option... / select 4th checkbox Register win key of device

TIP2: if you, like me, prefer to activate Quickmenu from the left side of the screen (I have a hard time hitting the battery icon :D): open QuickMenu window / select Quickmenu / select Option... / select second TAB on the bottom called View / deselect 1st checkbox open QuickMenu / (you can of course also change the offset value to something you like. default is 192, but then you get an invisible icon in the middle of the taskbar - also kind of hard to find :D :D)

tnx to Appelflap for a great mod!

If so, then you should tap on the battery icon to open QuickMenu (see image in the first post). This may at first be a little difficult but keep trying :) After a while you get used to it and it will go very naturally.

It works for me unexpectedly well.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
I've certainly seen something like that. Couldn't figure out it what situations it occured. But I think you're right. It's after a tap on the today menu item, that the next tap isn't handled correctly by QM.

There are two independent versions: one that doesn't show where to click to open QM and another that shows a little horizontal bar above the region where one has to tap to open up QM. You can install either the first one or the second one.

To run the application after installation, you can do a softreset (it is set up to run at startup) or you can run quickmenu.exe in /Program Files/QMenu

After it is launched, you can call QM by tapping on the battery icon.

Why does my white bar keep changing in width. Sometimes it is as long as my clock, while others can be as short as one single digit. I nearly thought it was a battery bar.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pavel-auto78:
Can you make the battery indicator from Quick menu will replace the system indicator?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
No I can't do that. But what you can do is to download the unmodified Quickmenu app (see link first post), enable "show icon" on the option/view page, set the offset to 371 and choose show battery on title (percent and analog).

(EDIT: also check the option "show battery on all titles", otherwise the icon will appear on the WM 6.5.x clock)

That way you have the qmenu icon on the battery-icon and a new battery icon at the left of the G/3G indicator.

Only thing I can do is to modify the icon so that it will match with the black and white taskbar.
