[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Hey master, I was actually playing around with Nitrogen some more last night, and I discovered a few things. First....when I hit the "pause" button on my bluetooth headphones, it doesn't actually pause the player (like it does when I use windows media player on the phone), it just interrupts the audio stream going to the headset, the player actually keeps playing. And, for some reason, it also causes the HTC Media tab to pop up.

I'd never realized these behaviors until last night, but I thought they might influence your search for a media player. I know the BT controls on the headphones will directly control all functions in WMP just fine, but that's obviously not the best (and definitely not the "leanest") media player available and I'll be checking out other replacement options for it today too. I'll post back here when I confirm which one(s) work the way we want for the BT controls (aka "AVRCP" profile)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] master1454:
Sirphunkee, That's the issue I have with the HTC media player using Bluetooth. If I press ffwd or rew, the HTC player starts playing over the 3rd-party player (i.e. Core Player, Pocket Music, etc.). I would use the native player - if it had an equalizer (maybe I'm asking for too much, LOL) & WMP is "okay" at best in sound, but is a battery hog. Thanks again & now you know my pain, ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] master1454:
Also, for some reason, my playlists don't show in Nitrogen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Yeah, the reason I didn't realize at first that the HTC media player was kicking in is becasue I don't have any music in it's default folder, it's all on my SD card, so the HTC player pops up but just continuously shows "searching...", so it never started playing anything over the music I already had on.

But yeah, I'm sure there's registry keys somewhere that tell the phone what to do (i.e. calling up the HTC player) whenever AVRCP commands are received...if they can be routed to activate/control the HTC player, they should be able to be redirected to the player of choice.

Keep looking, I'm doing the same (well, whenever my boss isn't walking by lol) :D

Hello, I have a PDA Eten glofiish M810, and I have a problem now will explain it to what is

success. While performing a ROM upgrade a few days ago, the update

that fails and the PDA connected to your PC, turn off the display (display neroooo).

I try to restart it, removing battery but nothing, the buttons light up

normally but display BLACK. What the hell happened?

So I do try as hard reset, power + soft reset (anything), power + soft

reset + cam (nothing) etc etc. .... but I feel lots of hard reset the PDA is restarted

(I notice the buttons that will go off) but the display is always black. Provo

directly to install a ROM Journal (ps. when I connect the PDA to the PC, the

PC sees me quietly MS Active Sync works normally) but the bar

Progressive does not go forward remains at 0%, nothing!

I followed instructions .... Power + rec (no red button on the camera) and then go with

the pen .... for many seconds? 1 made 5 made 10 made 1 minutes did take off .....

the stylus, Dividend fingers .... NOTHING! but a screen comes out .... kind of testing

normalemte touchabile (1 for CPU, RAM 2 ....) but it is a screen type under

screen "in the sense that it is difficult to see it ... in fact I could normally

viewed over a light projected on the screen .... trying and trying again

(power-rec and stylus) screen testing no longer appears but the logo now appears

Glofish (always under the screen and view it through projected light) ... but after

ten seconds disappears ...

I upgraded directly from SD. but the result is always the same.

I know some of you help?

HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The results of a benchmark test between the latest SuperD and WG-Build.

Test it out for yourself by trying out the Benchmark app on the Market.

Results vary from continuous testing, so I randomly chose results from both builds. This is solely for eye candy, both builds are top notch.

Note: Stock sd card, no swap, & no partitions. Graphics & SD performance are irrelevant.

SuperD v1.6.6 Beta

WG-Build Y-2.6 w/ CFS RH
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] charlescray:
Good stuff.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sombionix:

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Klyentel:
its a tie.
[Nexus One General] technicolor:
Devs,

Please move this thread to the right location if this isnt one, i looked everywhere but couldnt find anything about it. I was wondering if there is any way to mount iso files on my N1.
[Nexus One General] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
Mount them where? And for what purpose? There are ways to mount image files(loopback), though I'm not sure about the format that can be used. At any rate, it'd require modification to the OS.
[Nexus One General] technicolor:
Forexample if i copy an iso file on my SDcard and then mount it like you can do on windows with DeamonTools or on ubuntu http://hacktivision.com/index.php/2008/02/24/how-to-mount-iso-images-in-ubuntu-the-ea?blog=2

I was just wondering if it is something that can be done, sky is the limit with Android aint it?
[Nexus One General] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
I'd imagine it's possible with a rooted phone that has the appropriate kernel modules loaded. It's not exactly built in though, so aside from having the kernel modules ready, you'd have to manually mount it through the shell to some folder somewhere, and even then you'd only be able to access it through a shell or one of the file managers. At any rate, it doesn't seem too useful since there's no software for Android that requires any kind of disk(that I know of) and you'd have to have the image file on the sd card, which is already readable by the OS. So anything that could possibly be on the iso could just as easily be put on the sd card.
[Nexus One General] jairuncaloth:
Yes, it requires recompiling the kernel to support the correct filesystem. I did it the other day with a debian install disk. It's not too hard.
[Nexus One General] kiddyfurby:
You will need a kernel that support cdfs,

mount -o loop /sdcard/name.ISO /path/to/mountpoint
[Imagio General] sea_man:
Hi.

I will buy this phone , but before i need know if this phone have support HSDPA in this frec 850 /1900

because i will be use it in other country , and i like to use 3g here.

Thanks for your Help!!.. and sorry for my bad English.

PDT...

If i buy this phone in Verizon USA , it have a Sim card support ..? or i have search for any special model name ?
[Imagio General] surfacei:
sure does

yes there is sim card support that you can have unlocked by verizon global. i currently have a tmobile sim in there incase i leave verizon cause of their constant price adjustments
[Imagio General] sea_man:
Nice info ! thanks

The only doubt , is the HSPDA Frequencies...

This phone will work in 850 /1900 for 3G ?
[Imagio General] cslawren:
It does in the UK. HSDPA was amazing. I was pulling incredible speeds off of Vodafone using the included SIM from Verizon (with the global data plan, of course).
[Imagio General] sea_man:
Thanks for the info, but i'm living in USA , and here this frequencies (2100 /900) don't work for 3G ... only 850 or 1900.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] alkorr:
am i have a software problem...i think. when i enter into the camera it appears a black screen. sometimes it works but generaly it doesn't work. the problem appears even if i switch to secondary camera. i have tried different rom versions but no luck. pls help
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ohyeahar:
I've experienced this as well before. For me, it was definitely a problem with the ROM I flashed. It went away when I flashed another one.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] alkorr:
pls tell me what rom did fix your problem!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] azncrip23:
i also have trouble with the camera, the colour appear so horible

i had try another rom , radio but no luck to me

can anyone help me
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] alkorr:
anyone?any solution?:(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Walter65:
I have a problem with my camera as well.

I have to kill it after use via the taskmanager.

Otherwise it won't start up the next time.

This problem remained after a new ROM from T-Mobile...
[HD2 General] Megacamz:
I'm sorry if theres been a million of these posts but i seriously regret buying one and now its too late to send it back because its taken me over a month to realise how bad it really is.

Now dont get me wrong, its an amazing piece of kit but its horribly let down by terrible software.

Main features rarely work, Everyone is aware of the LAGGY text problem the terrible text input software, the fact that it loses data connection all the time and has to be restarted to work again, When i come out of standby alot it doesn't work and the buttons light up and i have to take the battery out.

The phone is unresponsive and laggy alot to name but a few.

Its driving me insane, i want to get rid of it but i cant, i'd sell it on but my girlfriend dropped it and scratched it devaluing it and TBH, i'd feel bad selling it to someone knowing how bad it is.
[HD2 General] beyondthought:
send it back to htc for repair. that **** don't happen with mine!!!!
[HD2 General] paulking:
indeed, only had mine around a fortnight but i havent had any real issues with the phone...not even the camera bugs that were supposed to be wrong with it...all my texts go through straight away same with emails n what not

think these devices are very hit n miss you either get a decent one or a sucky one

appears you got the latter, send it to htc, tell them you want a working version of the phone!
[HD2 General] [★]:
Yeah, send it back to HTC for servicing, it sounds like a **** batch
[HD2 General] :
Tell me this, did you get your phone expecting the best thing ever, and it sort of was until these problems came about but you thought you would hold out for a fix/fixes. Still waiting out you lost your patience and want something that simply WORKS?

I'd agree with what people are saying, sending it back because really, it shouldn't be so unusable. Give them a sharp angry tone, it might quicken up the fixes release for the rest of us! :P
[HD2 General] omneity:
Mmm, I wonder what the problem could be?
[HD2 General] paulking:
just as i post this i try sending a text to another phone 5 inches from the hd2 and 20 minutes later...no message DOH!
[HD2 General] Archer:
lol - that could have been any number of things, couldn't it. The least likely is your phone!

Anyway, you do know that it doesn't send the text directly to the phone don't you? It doesn't mean it'll get there quicker if they're right next to each other :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] snipey:
Like most of the people here I have not had a single problem with the device. I did however have to loosing connection but that was easily fixed because of a discrepancy between what the htc wizard set up as my internet connection and that which it really was. I'm on the dutch KPN network and instead of the portal being "portalmmm.nl" it should be "internet". No problem since.
[HD2 General] onisuk:
my thoughts exactly !!!
[HD2 General] Audio Oblivion:
me either... these threads are seriously getting old quite quickly.
[HD2 General] paulking:
yeah, i know, would expect an sms to be sent within 20minutes though!

was saying they're right next to eachother so i wasnt waiting for a reply from someone i would know exactly when the text came through.

i sent a text to my boss yesterday and i havent been sacked so im guess ing that one didnt go through either :p
[HD2 General] Megacamz:
Yeah well, When i say she dropped it, it was from 2ft and the phone would have been fine normally but it hit a stone with scratched it.

I had these problems before anyhow and i was waiting as someone said...for updates to fix it, there have been many updates with no fixes and any fixes i do get are user created ones!

I had an Iphone previously which worked fine and was a bit slow at times i didnt expect the HD2 to be the best thing ever but i expected it to be quicker than my iPhone, i couldnt foresee the problems the HD2 would have as ive had HTC's in the past with no problems and i rate the company very highly.

I'm just so dissapointed.

I got the mobile through Mobilephones direct with T-mobile contract, who do i get in contact with? Mobilephones direct? T-mobile or HTC?
[HD2 General] Archer:
I was just pulling your leg mate ;)
[HD2 General] beyondthought:
htc most likely. the other won't do much after a month
[HD2 General] NZtechfreak:
Wow, I read about these experiences that people have and feel very lucky to have a rock solid HD2 in my hands...

To the OP: I presume you've hard reset the phone/installed newer ROMS?
[HD2 General] Megacamz:
Yeah man, factory reset's, updated the rom, tried all versions and still get same problems.
[HD2 General] Stephen Selby:
I'm another person who's had no problem with the device - and I am quite demanding. I have not made any changes to the device as delivered other than registry tweaks. I did run the HTC official quick-fixes, found they caused chaos and assiduously removed them all. All the software I've installed has been well-tried commercial stuff.

The only unusual thing I have to do is to disconnect data services before I go to bed, otherwise it won't sync with MyPhone...
[HD2 General] dr.melle:
i experience kinda the same problems, laggy texting or even no texting at all until restart, data connection dropping and again needing restart...

but still most of the times it works great, better than any previous phone i had. despite these little annoyances i still say i love my hd2 and wouldnt trade it for any iToy.
[HD2 General] mcfaddwa22:
hd2 issue..tg01

i have the tg01 and i love it..i was having issue with the phone as well and discovered that if you install certain programs to the sd card it makes the phone laggy..and have to reboot....i had the spb shell 3.5 and i installed it on the sd card and it was laggy and the 3d accelerator didnt work..so i uninstalled and installed it on the phone and ...now the phone is very stable..havent had any issue...food for thought...
[HD2 General] Monty Burns:
If your the UK, you can still return it for repair to the retailer. A "product" should be free from defect for a reasonable amount of time. Being that phones are now sold on 24month contracts, it should be reasonable that a phone should last 24 months.

Having dropped it though, you lose a lot of argument and strength.

Google "Sales Of Goods Act" for full info and DEFO mention the act when talking to the retailer, it will clue them up that you know what you are talking about. Oh and the retailer is MobilePhonesDirect in your case.
[HD2 General] rahulelectra:
Can you elobrate on what features dont work. ?

and most of teh problems are software ones which can ve solved by patches and tweaks available here.
[HD2 General] onisuk:
we shouldnt have to be doing this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:(
[HD2 General] Monty Burns:
I see the onscreen keyboard is working well! :D
[HD2 General] jakem:
Still complaining I see.
[HD2 General] chmun77:
patch after patch and tweaks after tweaks? c'mon.... we are consumers. not some technicians....

yes, is a good phone with amazing specs.... but somehow, i feel HTC screw up with it Rom... stuck sms, pinky spot camera, facebook updates that take ages to update, weather updates with the wrong day and night, screen locks that will not work 100%, over-sensitive SIP...

what else? feel free to add....
[HD2 General] dagrim1:
Sheesh, really? How many more of these will there be...

Basically there are a two possibilities:

1. You exaggerate a lot! I mean, they way you describe it you would be happy when you actually get it to boot. Sure, it's not perfect (for me the sms-thing, not it getting stuck since I never had that but the laggy conversation loading) was THE worst issue I've had and a possible reason to ditch the phone if there were no workarounds. Since the latest hotfix that's also fixed...

The sensitive SIP, true but also a matter of preference. Many ppl think it's fine and with the little tweak downloaded here it's perfect for me.

2. You're device is from a crappy batch. In this case, send it back, get it replaced, etc. It sucks that it happened but it's the risk when buying an electronic filled software filled device. Sometimes you buy a new lcd monitor and it doesn't work, dead on arrival, does it mean the whole line is crap? Surely not!

I've had some minor issues, mainly messaging and some with the onscreen keyboard. But overall I love the phone and with the custom roms and some tweaks I have no problems at all! Really, only sometimes an app doesn't work correctly or I install the wrong tweak.

It's lightning fast, the fastest windows mobile phone I ever used. The HTC sense software, for me, is a wonderful addition making it truely user friendly and good looking but even fi you don't like it there alternatives. SPB Mobile Shell anyone?

Basically you get a device which works fine for most people by default. It's not perfect but should be good enough for the vast majority. If you are willing to spend time to figure uot the possibilities you can get a device which is perfect for you personally... well worth the effort in my opinion but indeed something which takes time and effort.

It also works fine without these tweaks, just less optimal for my personal use. Which is also what I love about this device, I can tweak and customize it so it fits my use perfectly.
[HD2 General] onisuk:
MOD EDIT

childish word removed
[HD2 General] Monty Burns:
whats one of them then? :D
[HD2 General] liamhere:
thats what i was thinking?

please grow up.......read the forum rules before you post comments like that again
[HD2 General] OneGoodKnock:
I'll tell you what I do not understand.

If you buy a device to perform a given task, then the device should perform that given task. It doesnt matter whether you buy an electronic device or a can of lager. The argument that you have to tweak your phone and spend ages modifying it to perform that given task is a nonsense. It's exactly the same as buying a can of lager and finding that it is flat - but hey it's ok because you can modify it by putting lemonade in it to make it fizzy again.

I also cannot believe that people are complaining about their HD2's for no good reason - there must be some substance to their complaining. I am absolutely sure that if the device worked as it should do then people would either not post, or they would post positive comments - the number of complaining posts seems to grow and grow. So for me ( who has a perfectly good device by the way, reception a bit poor but eminently workable) the device must be inherently flawed.

And lastly this is a forum for people to discuss the why's and wherefores about there phone - it is NOT alright for people to flame those who complain that they have problems. It is NOT alright that they have paid an awful lot of money for a device that does not work as advertised.
[HD2 General] EddyOS:
You're gonna get flamed on here, though, as a lot of the member base is pro-WinMo so of course they'll defend it! End of the day, everyone is entitled to an opinion...
[HD2 General] lepszy:
Wonder how come nobody returns their laptops/desktops with crap Vista (or any other windows) installed that constatly needs fixes and updates.
[HD2 General] OneGoodKnock:
:confused:
[HD2 General] Megacamz:
Yeah, those are more problems i would mention aswell, the weather thing never works, always gives me the wrong location, the camera asides being pink also is very sensitive to movement if anyone moves slightly it blurrs the photo(yes i know what do i expect from a camera phone?, well ive had much better camera phones in the past from like 4 years ago)

Facebook sometimes never updates unless i restart, same with twitter.

the latest one is that my phone does not turn on at all, the button lights go on and the phone screen will not come on unless i remove battery, this happens every day.

Edit: I'm really dissapointed with HTC, My Touch pro had less problems than the HD2 did, I contacted HTC and i'm gonna get in touch with Mobile phone direct now and see what they have to say.
[HD2 General] leftkats:
Complains of such nature lead nowhere, imho! "God I hate my HD2" on a new thread... I mean come on!!!! Where is the use of that? Wouldn't it be better if it just said.. "Couple of problems here, hope someone can help" or something...

So much exageration goes in these forums i think..

By the way my phone is great, no problems whatsoever (nor my brother's nor my dad's) and I don't feel lucky or anything because most people get a good unit with only a few bad devices every now and then (propably due to bad software from companies like t-mobile etc....). Bad devices or people don't know how to use them..

In my opinion, if you are not good with computers or don't like gadges and how to use them, don't bother buying an HD2 because you will not be able to get the most of it.

WM rules!!!
