change your user-agent:

in opera, type about:config

scroll down to User Prefs

find Custom User-Agent

delete the text in the box.

replace it with something like:

Opera 9.7 (Windows NT 5.2; U; en)

Facebook now sees your phone as a Windows computer running Opera 9.7, and will show the full site. :cool:

(UK: a similar technique is used to get iPlayer working - changing the UA to 'HTC_Touch_HD_T8282' allows you to stream videos directly :D)

if I dowload Facebook for Windows Mobile from

is it the same with the preinstalled or not? and If its not, when I install it, will it update the preinstalled version or install a completely new one?

this seems to be an older version that what's here in the forum, the link you posted is v.1.0.0.7, the on here is v.1.1.0.17.

i bought my phone from buymobilephones.net on the tmobile network. it came with facebook 1.0.0.7 which allowed me to login but wouldnt update. i updated it to facebook 1.2 and it worked for a few hours but now just refuses to update and often just gets stuck on the screen " checking for data". ive tried logging out and in to no avail :(

not wishing to detract from the topic of this thread but i also had issue with out of date windows live messenger that would only work on wireless and never on tmobile connection. an uptodate version i found on this forum [ no help from microsoft as their site offered an old version] fixed this issue thankfully.

**EDIT** i just reinstalled facebook app and i logged into my facebook account on pc to check that the email address was correct [ i had changed my email address some time ago you see ]. i noticed that though the new email address was showing...the old email address was still the default contact address.

can ppl who are having problems confirm if they have ever changed their facebook email account and check the contact email address on account settings...this might explain why the facebook api might fail if its looking on the new email address but the old email address is still the contact address?? comments on this welcome

If anyone is interested, I am developing a facebook client for WM 6.5 on my HD2. It isn't much at the moment but now that the UI elements have been developed, adding content should come pretty quickly.

The aim is to be a full replacement for touch.facebook.com and to interact with FBTabs by MeltWater as well as any other 3rd party application that wants to interface with it.

If anyone is interested in helping develop (be it coding, graphics, testing, etc) or just wants to give it a try, check out the work that has been done and please leave some feedback!

No one has come across "snaptu"? Go to http://m.snaptu.com . there you download a app for your hd2, there is unsigned and verisigned which i dont understand the significance of it. But i lliked it. It is a JAVA app so you need to run JBlend and then snaptu app. i can do everything as on a computer except CHAT. Do you know anything better? please tell me. especially one that you can chat with.

Facebook App

Hi there..

I was trying to develop a facebook app, that is basically a snake game.

however, the twist in the tale is that, the game can run parallel to my facebook home page, just like the chat window does.

that way, you can play as well as be aware of stuff going on.

can this be done at all? does facebook block apps that are like midgets(or act as pop ups).

someone please throw some light on how to proceed!!

thanks!

[Nexus One General] gamefan231:
idk if this has been asked already but im on a tmobile family plan...if i buy an unlocked nexus one, then put my sim card in would it work?
[Nexus One General] Tortri:
Yes, Did the same thing. In fact replace both phones on the family plan with the n1 and worked with no problems. The APN settings were already there for me. (I think it saved it on the sim, but not sure honestly)

Didn't have to call tmobile, just pop in the sim, turn it on, log into google so it gets your settings, enjoy the Nexus experience!
[Nexus One General] Ace42:
You can buy it with Tmo sim from Google site it lets you pick,
[Nexus One General] gamefan231:
i dont have 500 dollars to spend on my phone so this was my plan...THIS IS MY PLAN CAN YOU TELL ME IF THIS IS SMART OR NOT: (im due for an upgrade) i split up my family plan lines to single lines, buy the nexus one at the 180 price...call back about a week later and tell them that i dont like the phone so im going to jus put my sim card into my old g1 and ask them to put my family plan back together then when the do i jus put my sim card back to nexus one...would this work?
[Nexus One General] Ace42:
you need to cancel the plan which has a fee, that would work i guess.
[Nexus One General] gamefan231:
fee, what fee?
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
No. First off, the lowest price you'll get them for is $279 each. Second, Google will charge you a $250 penalty per phone if you "downgrade" your T-mobile plan within 120 days... which is what switching to a family plan is considered.
[Nexus One General] gamefan231:
wow so theres really no way around this!?
[Nexus One General] Ace42:
You could wait for the price to go down or look for cheaper or broken Nexus on ebay.

I plan on selling mines when Phones have tegra chips and larger screens hopefully 4" :p
[Nexus One General] JoshHart:
I dont know about getting onto a family plan although i did see one person on here say they talked their way into getting it for 180 and kept their family plan. I was able to get it for 180 with a new contract through a lot of ninja action and get my number back on but im on the new customer plan
[Nexus One General] gamefan231:
yea i was hoping i would be able to talk them into puttin me back on the family plan for free...

and wouldnt the fee be jus 100 now, i seen alot of articles sayin the they dropped the price of the phone from 370 to 270 or somthing...
[Nexus One General] mcp2009:
what do you mean by "ninja action" can you explain?
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
No. The fee is the difference between what you pay and $530. So if you bought it for $270, the penalty fee is $250. If you bought it for $180, the penalty fee is $350. Those are Google's own fees.

Hi all, Does anyone know of a kitchen for the tp that has Manila 2.5 included in it (or is anyone kind enough to share theirs?). I know chefs don't like sharing their kitchens cos then others take credit for the ROMs but this is ONLY for my personal ROMs for my tp - i won't be uploading any as i think there are many talented chefs already for our device.

I have download the 23518 kitchen from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=580429

and then downloaded the Manila 2.5 files from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4956649#2

And added them to the kitchen following the instructions exactly. The ROM boots (strangely there is no settings icon in the start menu????) but Titanium is loaded by default. I try enabling Manila and it just gets stuck on 'tap here to launch HTC sense' then when i tap it says 'launching HTC sense' then back to 'tap here etc etc'?

Basically i want to build a ROM for myself like EnergyROMs (which is what i use normally) but would like to remove some stuff i don't use.

Thanks in advance

Android Phone Info

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H

HBOOT-1.76.0007 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-6.35.07.29

Background

I bought my HTC Magic in Singapore (through SingTel) about 6 months ago. About a month ago I used the HTC software ROM update to update my HTC Android 1.5 to HTC Sense UI 1.5 (NB: the android firmware version remained the same but I am now using HTCs Sense UI).

I finally decided to root yesterday and since then the problems have begun!

Just so things were "clean" I restored my phone to factory settings. However, I cannot figure out how to go back to the stock 1.5 (ie. the one that DOES NOT use Sense UI). So, now I am on a basic (without any modifications) version of Sense UI.

One-Click Method

I then tried this to root my phone with the 1-click method

When I click on “Backup recovery image” I got the “Failed” message. So, I clicked on the hidden asterix and tried to flash the image but I got the same message again. Essentially, this did not work for me. I posted on the comment thread (just yesterday) but have not gotten a response on it yet.

Method on XDA Forum

Then I looked around and found this more "complicated" method and found an HTC Sapphire Hacking wiki post which seemed easy enough to follow.

I generally use linux but just to be sure I followed the guide to the letter I booted up XP.

Everything worked fine until I got to this command: C:\AndroidSDK> fastboot boot recovery-rom.img

I got the following error message: fastboot failed, remote: not allow

Solutions?

I have looked all over this forum and a few others and have found this can be because of the "perfected SPL", however, as far as I know my SPL is 1.76.0007 and NOT the 1.33 "problem" SPLs.

I have NO idea what I should do now. I really want to root my phone but I am completely stuck as the simple method does not work, nor does the "complex" method

Any help on this matter would be very much appreciated
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] fizzle101:
HTC Magic 32A

The same issues with me, i am currently stuck with the Sense UI with no way to root my magic and i have tried everything possible.

If you find a solution please do let me know
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] abhiroopb:
Is yours singtel? I think the updated Sense UI rom may have blocked it. I can't find a way of getting back to the stock rom.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] fizzle101:
I am not sure if it is singtel, but when I first got it before installing the sense rom, the boot screen says AirTel. I am not sure if this is the same but that's what I see.

There is nothing wrong with the Sense UI rom but I just need to have root.

Anyway I will keep looking for solution because I am sure that one of these developers will eventually find a way to root but till then I might just get the nexus one. From what am hearing and reading the phone is pretty simple to unlock and root.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] abhiroopb:
Don't really want to buy a new phone just to root!

Airtel may be from India
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] fizzle101:
Yeh, I think it is from there because I few forums I have visited mentioned India.

Well am not only getting the nexus one for the root capabilities, is just that the performance of the phone is amazing and I am a loyal fan/customer to HTC and Android and I cant wait to have one of that bad boy for myself.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] abhiroopb:
Can no-one help with rooting my phone?

I have the weekend and I'd be willing to try something complicated.

Actually Singtel has given 12gb free data per month which means that wifi tethering is a really reasonable option and I want to set this up. Hence, I would really like the ability to root my phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sindrefyrn:

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harveydent:
nope, a cooked ROM won't affect your data plan. although most cooked ROMs automatically install your provider settings on first run, you should back up your internet and mms settings before flashing just in case.

Hi,

How to check if the HTC I am going to buy is brand new and original one?

Is there any software which will reveal the hardware information and usage information? Or any other methods ?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Ace42:
What do you mean orig?

If you think its a chinese clone your common-sense will kick in and tell you if its fake.Clones dont have the HTC makring and the batt will not be in english and will be fake brand.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] morison20:
Well, I went to market yesterday and I was pretty confused with the original and fake one. But yes I can at distinguish between original and fake one. The touch screen of the fake one is so slow, the screen is not clear blah blah.

My problem is-

1. If the circuit (and hardware) inside is a repaired one instead of a brand new.

2. How to check if the battery is a real or fake one. (I have seen the fake battery looks pretty much same as the real one). This is REALLY IMPORTANT.

3. How to check if the phone is 32A or 32B. I want to buy 288MB version. How will I check the RAM?

4. If it's a brand new one or a used one. How to check if the phone is used or not.

5. They will give me HTC TIM 288 MB RAM version. Is there any restriction or anything that I need to be aware of this version? Is this the same as the HTC version? What's the difference other than logo ?

Also if you can show me how to be sure if I am buying the HTC magic phone I am paying for.

Thanks in advance.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Ace42:
1.Would prob look the same

2.Fake batt wont work in real

3.Press Cam+Power it will show 32A or 32B

4.look at condition or wear and tear, see if its already activated

5.There are diff logos on the magic:

-Tmobile

-orange

-Vodaphone

-Rogers

-HTC

Well those are the ones i know of might be more in other countries,im in US so we only have 32B.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] morison20:
Thanks Ace42,

Here in China fake battery works :( Only difference is fake battery doesn't last long and goes down pretty quickly.

Are you aware of any software which can reveal the inside of the Hardware (including usage, time activated, hardware info)

Please tell me if there is any hardware key to check the IMEI number and software version (like in Nokia it is *#06# and *#0000#)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Ace42:
When you press cam+power it brings you to bootloader screen

only appears on real phone

press Power+home for recovery mode

Should show a ! mark in a triangle
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] akusukakamupunya:
I bought my TIM Magic in China (shanghai) and I think its real:D

because the developer is hiapk, don't know what is it..? its real or fake..?

maybe someones can explain it about developer/kernel version (HIAPK) in Magic..?

but all information like SPL, Radio are showing when I fastbooted my phone..

from this forum I saw there is a difference between 32A and 32B, for example when you fastboot the phone (power off press <vol down + power>) there will be screen showing "SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON H",

32A = your ram 288

32B = your ram 192

Hi,

I've just started experimenting with google sync today and I am delighted. I don't care about email but I always wanted push calendar option on my PPC. Google sync is great!

I also found out in here about myphone service by MS. It also works great for backupping my docs once a day. Still I would prefer something that would have PUSH functionality. Meaning something that would upload content automatically to the server once the document is changed.

I have also tried live mesh but I gave up. It can backup a folder once every hour but if the file you want to synchronize is opened at the time of scheduled sync, live mesh can screw everything up. I had too many lost files because of it ....

Is there anything out there that would detect that the file has change and upload it to the server only when it does change? Smth. like push mail functionality but working with files?

I want my listpro lists to synchronize this way.
[General Topics] dontpannic:
Dropbox? That should do what you want. Wether there's a WinMo app though.........

And now my mind is pretty much made up about upgrading (that means selling my dream, already got a buyer so don't ask, and buying the Nexus unlocked from google) to the Nexus.

but...

To all you dream devs I love your work, and just want to say thanx.

Also, How many of you, other than CM, are moving on to development for the Nexus?

And will I be able to flash roms like Super- D, and WG- Y on the Nexus?

Or are they Dream roms only?
