i haven't opened up my device, yet. i'm glad i never had to, but from all lcds i know, i think that the flex cable is integrated in the display unit and only has a plug on the other side, so you cannot detach it. also, you should think about costs. the cable alone probably wouldn't be any cheaper than the entire display and if you had it assembled in a local shop, changing the flex cable only (if possible) would be much more work than replacing the entire unit, so causing more costs. actually, i believe the cheapest way would be, buying an entire new BlueAngel. new devices go for 100eur here in germany. the official retail price for a display unit alone is 130eur.

Hi there,

As I want to receive mail on my TD but dont want to run out of juice after half a day I'm looking for a way to auto disconnect the data connection after 1 minute or so.

I tried getting this to work before and failed. I tried again and I think I failed again. I tried the register setting, I triend advanced config 3.3, I tried GBsofttweak and I tried a cab from XDA for disconnect after 1 minute (probably on the regtweak I think).

All of them don't work. They work for the weather tab, internet etc but they don't work when the mail tab starts a connection.

Is there anyway to fix/get around this? I set messenger up to check once a hour. I use vanilla latest TD rom and my provider is vodafone.

Hello All

I have just stumbled across an app called Vodafone Application Update (on the Market), although this does not appear to be an official Vodafone app (at least not a UK one anyway).

The app itself sits in the Taskbar and monitors your social networks pulling into a combined inbox similar to the Motoblur with the exception of the inbox.

I have found it pretty useful and wondered if anyone had heard of it before.

I cannot vouch for its authenticity or as to whether it works on other networks (as I'm on Vodafone anyhow)

As its a free software not a paid for app if someone can tell me how to extract an apk from my phone I'll post a link for those that cannot see it on the Market.

Thanks to XDA for making my whole Android experience better

Use task managers and kill widgets to control these memory leeching, battery eating apps, and your phone will speed up.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scrappyabs2:
I'm trying to root my G1 from scratch. I downloaded the DREAMIG file to my freshly formatted SD card. After I shut my phone down and reboot using (CAMERA + POWER) I get the multicolored screen that says Serial0, but it doesn't give me any fastboot options for applying the new image. I hit back and the screen reloads, but Serial0 still shows up with no options for applying the new image. I hit back again and now the Serialno screen is frozen, it won't reload. I've repeated these steps multiple times, but still I can't get into fastboot.

Any ideas?

Any help would be appreciated!!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
You don't have a fastboot enabled bootloader, you have a stock one. At this point it shouldn't matter. You can get out of bootloader by pressing menu+talk+power, aka 3 finger salute.

If your phone, in bootloader mode, doesn't find DREAIMG.nbh that means you named it wrong: are you on windows machine? Make sure that it's not hiding extensions and you did not name your file DREAIMG.nbh.hbh. Make sure that you have the right file and it's not corrupted (MD5 sum), make sure your card is formated in FAT32 format. Once your nbh file is right format/name, your phone will find it automaticaly.

Once can apply the image (DREAIMG.nbh) you're fine. Just reboot after it's done and continue with your rooting process.

[HD2 General] CyberSniper:
On my old Tytn II, there was a dedicated power button which I can use to turn off the screen during a call with the BT headset. But with the HD2, it depends on the proximity sensor to turn off the screen since pushing the power button will also end the call. When I am using a BT headset, the phone leaves the screen on and this poses problems as I seem to be able to accidentally bump on the END call screen button when I leave it in my pocket. Is there any solution to this?
[HD2 General] madbird:
hi,

i use aebutton on the hd2, the program has an so called 'action menu' wich can be accessed by a keypress. one of the commands available is to turn of the screen. its a bad workaround i know, but i didnt find anything better to do this. another thing is that proximite sensor is still active. so if you blank the screen and the sensor detects that you are moving the device away from your body, it switches the display on again. the keylock feature is not used when in phonecall.

mad.

*EDIT:* maybe pocketshield is also a solution.

[Nexus One General] alithenake:
Is it only me?

I'm coming from WinMo only phones. I owned a lot of them, the last being the Touch HD. I was so used to press the "green" key to access the dialer and look for a contact using that mixed numbers/letters phone keyboard.

On Nexus One, I select "phone" shortcut on my homescreen and I get the dialer. But if you push buttons on that keyboard, you only get to dial that number (no contacts lookout, matching what you have pressed). So you have to go to Contacts or Favorites to select someone you want to call (too many operations to not get annoyed :( )

Is this a normal behavior on Nexus One? Or am I doing something bad?

I made a movie to see what I am talking about (not a native English speaker).

Movie 1

The second movie is made showing what I am talking about using a Market application I found: SuperDial. It works as expected, but still I am confused why Google didn't make this a default (I see this on every phone)

Movie 2

Thanks for any suggestions.

Alin.
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
On the N1, you can press the "search" button at any time and begin typing a contact's name, and they should pop up as a top result. Alternatively, you can hold the Search button, and simply speak your contact's name. I find this to be the easiest way.
[Nexus One General] alithenake:
Yes, I've seen this, but it gets more general results, not only contacts. Also, after you find a contact that way, you click on it and it won't dial directly. You still have to select what to do.. not that fast ...

I'm not an American/Englishman and nor my contacts are :), so speaking names is useless. Last try was: "Alex Axon" and the phone undesrtood "alex sucks own" .. you got the idea :p

Thanks for answering anyway. Are there other methods?
[Nexus One General] catbear:
You can install aContacts from the market. It does what you want and very configurable. Unfortunately android stock dialer doesn't support T9.
[Nexus One General] alithenake:
Thanks.. will try that also. As I mentioned, I already found some replacement for my issue.

The question was: is this normal behavior for the default dialer? Or am I doing something wrong?

It looks plain stupid to open an application (Phone in Nexus case) always on a tab that nobody uses (dialer with this behavior). How many times someone will dial a number directly instead of using a saved contact?!? At least the application should remember the last tabs it was in: Favorites, Call Log or Contacts... Dialer is plain useless most of the time with this implementation :(
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
This is how mine reacts as well. There's another "application" called "Contacts" in my tray (it also started out on my desktop but I've removed it) which takes you to the same four-tab screen but starts on the "Contacts" tab. This sounds like it would be perfect for you if you used it instead of "Phone."
[Nexus One General] TaFFeR:
I also really miss the smart dailer (I think that's what they called it) on the Windows Mobile phones. I'm amazed that it wasn't implemented in one way or another in the stock dialer since it's been in the WinMo phones since forever.

I remember trying out some apps in the market that emulated the smart dialer. On is called SuperDial and the other was Star Contact. Both looked too ugly for me to use, though.
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
I also wanted to point out that at this screen, you can long press "Menu" to bring up the soft kb, which you can begin typing contacts with.
[Nexus One General] TaFFeR:
That's something cool I never tried, but OP wants to dial immediately after tapping on the contact's name. Doing it this way would be the same as hitting the magnifying glass while in the dailer/contacts app, which brings you to the contacts page where you'd have to then tap on the number you wish to dial. On Windows Mobile, after you T9 the contacts name into the dialer, you can select them and it'll automatically dial the contacts default number, which was very useful.
[Nexus One General] kozm0naut:
if you say "call" before the contact's name when using voice input, it will default to dialing them.
[Nexus One General] alithenake:
aContacts actually do the job really, but really well. It replaced my Phone application from this moment on.

SuperDial was good also, but ugly looking. :)
[Nexus One General] TaFFeR:
Where do you type "call"? OP can't use voice dial because he's not from an English speaking country.
[Nexus One General] alithenake:
you type call on the keyboard as far as I understood, just before entering contact name.. but the process is long in my opinion...

I'm a bit lazy myself :p

EDIT: tried to enter contact using keyboard on Dialer.. and nothing happens, contact is not found, and dialer just starts dialing the corresponding key number
[Nexus One General] TaFFeR:
It doesn't do anything... I type "call John" in the search box and my contacts don't come up.

Hi guys

Really love my HD2... Nice hardware, nice software (with help from cooks) etc.

I have one problem though... The music player!

Im one of those who LOVE music... And lots of it

The problem is related to how you navigate to artists etc... Its so slow! I mean its totally smooth, but the fact that you have to slide your finger for like 10 sec, to get to the bottom, (If you have a lot of music) is a pain... On the iPhone there is a "Letter-scrollbar", from where you can QUICKLY slide to the first letter of the artist you want to hear

There actually also is on the HD2!..... In the "all people" tab! EXATLY what I want is on the HD2, but in the wrong tab (Well its actually also kind of handy to have in the "all people" tab, so no complaints there )

My question/request is: Is it possible, for some hacker extraordinaire, to take the "letter-scrollbar" from the "all people" tab, and implant it in the Music Player. In the artists section preferably

Hope sombody can pull it off!

(I also posted this in the "application" section)

I also like the Sense Music Player--its integration into Sense, the very cool cover art display in Landscape Mode, etc.

I also agree that it would be nice when scrolling to have letters at the side to help scrolling through a long list.

What is funny to me is "the only thing missing", as I have had several very serious problems with the Sense Music Player. It is extremely buggy. (This thread isn't the place to discuss all the problems though, as it is about the letter-scrollbar, and I will join in on that request.) (More important to me, though, would be if someone could fix the serious multiple database problems with the app.)

My hd2 loops in startscreen, htc appears, then the rom and radioinformation down left and then it restarts and again and again, but only with synccable, with only battery it is dead. Nothing happens.

Now i´m able do get the bootloaderscreen (rgb and white) and usb-connection and flash everything I want, with the same result as above.

I flashed stock rom, originally o2-rom, radio-rom only a.s.o., same result, htc-screen with radio and thats it, restart.

Is there anything i can try before sending it back to htc?

The bootscreen says:

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-1.42.HSPL XE

0x05

CotullaHSPL 0x30

so HSPL is installed, and usb connection works.

The explanation why i got this problem depends on voice command, i´ll tried to change some files, because the speech was too fast to heare it.

Is there anything that i can flash, thats really helps?

The next problem is, that i can´t boot the orinal rom from sd-card, because without cable nothing happens, and with cable thres is only usb to flash.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] optiknerv:
if you have hspl you could flash a ROM using customRUU from the bootloader i think. Have you tried a hardreset (hold volume up and down and reset button)? i had the same problem but for me switching the phone off for a few hours (i didn't have access to a pc) it booted up and i flashed a stock ROM. its a bad rom flash thats the problem. once and if you can get it booted be sure to follow the instructions on the mtty thread or flash a stock ROM before each and every custom one.

EDIT : Haven't read it properly. seems worse than my problem. simple thing are you battery contacts good and making a proper connection? Only other thing i can think.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pathologo:
Try MTTY with your device.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] paperinapap:
is a battery problem?

excuse for my poor english....

I think that if you can not flash your HTC HD2, I think the problem is in the battery.

If the battery is discharged below 50% you are not allowed to flash.

Instead if you start flashing when the battery is above 50% but during the operation the battery falls below this threshold, the flashing operation stops generating an error (usually error 220). This is due to the fact that the device is not recharged during the upgrade radio.

with best regards, paperinapap :)
[HD2 General] kuzibri:
There are many posts on this forum about the HD2 loosing now and again (for some members way too often) the data connection leading to no updates in weather and impossibility to internet, etc. The only way to solve this is either to dis- and reconnect the data connection or perform a soft reset. This, of course, is annoying. I was wondering though whether this is a HTC Sense problem or WinMo?

Another question that then came to my mind is: Do people who use SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 suffer from this data connection problem also or not? If not then it would most likely be a Sense problem and thus could be solved by, temporarily, switching to SPB untill HTC solves that problem. Any input appreciated!

Hi everybody,

I´ve got a P3600 running niax rom.

My problem is that the battery life is very very short (With any rom i´ve tested, included the original) not more than 12 hours..., and the status fluctuates a lot, it remains a lot of time in 70% for example, and the, an hour after, it´s 20%...

The battery have a couiple of years, and it´s been unused for a year. I remember reading, a long time ago, about a program that drains all the battery, and then you charge it and starts to work fine again, but i´m not able to find it (I´ve been looking for an hour).

I hope someone may help me solving this problem.

Thank you very much.
