Update?

"O2 XDA Atom Black/Pure WM6.5 Build21869 - O2 Official-Like ROM + ExtROM 28 Jan 2010

Its been 4 months i've release this rom, nearly 2k of downloads, assuming nearly 1k of user of atom tried this rom. some may like it, some may not.

judging on forum discussion, i think no one actually have issue on stability of the rom usage even with 3rd party apps installed from extrom.

i will finalize my work here soon with the same rom but some updates on extrom soon......

Well, I used this rom for quite some time and was very satisfied and happy. Then went on to try new roms and never got back to this.

So, now i am looking forward to your updated rom..There may be others in this forum too, who are interested.

whats best size for video? i tried 640x480...sometimes freeze.

176x144 and 320x240 is too small for htc touch pro 2. im using xilisoft video converter ultimate. thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] josefcrist:
what player are you using?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] GiantsFan91:
coreplayer
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] josefcrist:
what class is your sd card?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] GiantsFan91:
sandisk 8gb
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mhurg:
Class means which speed it has :-) Should say if you pull it out and have a close look!

As for the viceos, personally I convert them to mp4 using:

http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/htc-touch-pro2/

...and it works brilliantly. Most films I watch are smaller than 800x480 of course, but I watch them fullscreen anyway using the default HTC video player and album. MUCH smoother than Coreplayer.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] GiantsFan91:
oh lol..idk what it is but now its much better. finally i can watch movies or tv show on my phone :D

thanks.

I looked to other forums and experimented with Usersettings.xml without sucees.

If somebody have a hint would be nice ;)

Thanks
[HD2 General] Qucostar:
I have just patch with LEO08007 (HTC SMS update function) UK, HTC support site.

However, the most annoying thing is

-gsm (Random) and bunched up timestamp with long text message.

not only that the date is wrong for the UK. It now shows (month/day/year) instead of the uk (day/month/year) in htc message (all white background with black text)

in the HTC sense message (all black background with white text) - touch in bottom half then stroke up, you will see older message. Find one 2 days or older, it shows the correct date???

I cannot seem to resolve this but this is annoying me ;-p

All else, it is much quicker, loading, typing away, no noticable lag (not sure if this to with facebook linking)

I have been searching for hours using this but cannot find a direct discussion or fix on the points above Any helpers?
[HD2 General] Qucostar:
By the way i have checked the regions, the time, date etc. And they are correct.

It is only when I have applied the latest sms update function (14/01/2010). That all the date are in wrong order ie. (month/day/year) instead of previously (day/month/year).

Secondly it seem to apply the "-gsm" at the end message randomly!

Thirdly the date stamp and last sentence of long text message are ovelapping/bunched up.

Anyway, it be reassuring if some one can post to confirm whether they have the same problem.

Email fired off to HTC as i think this is potentially another bug.
[HD2 General] kivine:
yes, everybody has the same problem if u bother to read the heavily discussed topics.

u could try changing to a smaller font size for any 'bunching' problems. it did work for mine
[HD2 General] Qucostar:
Yes for your information I did research as much as i could, all i can see is sms not being sent/hanging about in the main inbox being the main cuplrit resulting from the new sms update.

So I do not appreciate your tone of language. I did bother to read thank you! This is a forum to seek advice from fellow colleagues about their experience and share any solutions not to slate someone for trying the best to find this information.

The bunching makes no different on the smallest text as it still bunched over.

I actually got a response from HTC who are looking into this given that i have sent the picture describing the problems I have encountered.

New Response From [ Steven (UK - Ireland Support (Tech)) ]

Hi

Thank you for your enquiry

It does seem that the HD2 may have experienced a technicality issue regarding SMS..This is being looked into..BUT with regards to network locked devices we cannot provide information regarding any updates regarding your network..You will have to contact O2 regarding this to see if indeed any updates will become available...OR visit our website to see if we have updates for O2 within the next couple of weeks.

Best regards

Steve

HTC

******************************************************************

Received a response and it looks like there will be something in the next 2 weeks.

I am happy to receive a response acknowledging this! :-)

Coincidentally the UK SMS update function is no longer listed on their website or any HTC website!

So the previously released SMS update patch is definately pant!

I just hope there is solid fix on such an integral function of a mobile phone which need to be reliable, efficient and works.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
<quote> OR visit our website to see if we have updates for O2 within the next couple of weeks. </quote>

Not wishing to sound too negative, but having worked in various support roles for various companies, large and small, the above statement certainly wouldnt lead me to believe there is something due that they are keeping quiet about, it is a 'bother us later' answer, meaning 'go away while we look into it, but we don't want to say yes or no, so here is a maybe to keep your hopes up'.

Still., it would be nice. :-)
[HD2 General] omershahab:
I got an HD2 from eBay seller in Hong Kong. The phone arrived and everything was in English on first start just like I hoped.

However, there is still the Chinese keyboard on the device (Pin Yin or something).

Can someone tell me how to remove the Chinese keyboard?

I asked this question in past, but with no luck. sorry :(

chines keyborad

those your chines keyboard allows you to type in English ?

I am considering flashing to HK vertion , but i defenitly need to be able to write in English any answers or pictures be appreciated thanks
[HD2 General] msrox:
yes, everything is in English. just we can type in Chinese as well..
[HD2 General] omershahab:
Yeah I can type in both English and Chinese, but I'd rather just remove the Chinese part to make it easier when switching keyboards.

The ROM that came installed is already WWE, everything is in English except that I can also type in Chinese on the keyboard.
[HD2 General] biranouran:
You have more, but you want less.
[HD2 General] msrox:
I checked my ROM is 1.48.707 WWE, but it includes Chinese keyboard as well.

Any way to just remove Chinese keyboard?

And any way to add Farsi font to read SMSs in farsi? now Farsi characters in HTC messaging are just shown as blocks! :(

thanks in advance.
[HD2 General] omershahab:
It takes up a small block on the keyboard where it shows Chinese characters option even when typing in English.
[HD2 General] alex fung:
Yes it would be great if I can use with HK ROM without those stupid input methods. when you have too many input methods, some are pushed to the cascase menu "other input methods". However, they (Pinyin etc) does not appear as separate entities to things like SKTools, so I have no idea how to disable them.
[HD2 General] harrygol:
I have a problem with the writing sms font size, in the conversation style sms. The size is very small and unreadable. If I'm changing the settings of the sms font size, only received sms font size become bigger. I think it appeared after I tried to install the new hotfix LEO08007 (New SMS Function Update) from htc.com support for hd2. Now I can't see this hotfix in the list of programs for remove and I can't install it again over the current installation. I'm getting the notification that "this hotfix is not compatible with your device". What to do to fix it?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] IMPEREAL:
I think I have found a way to fix the notifications section of the Facebook app. Please try your selves and let me know.

With already being logged into your Facebook account on the phone. Go into the settings and then to applications. Go to manage applications and hit the menu key and select "filter" and then "ALL" then go to the Facebook application and clear data. then go back to the Facebook and sign in and all your notifications should start loading no more errors.

Please let me know if this works for you guys and good luck!:)

if you read the facebook thread, this solution has been out for a couple days now. Thanks for looking out though :)
[HD2 General] ppmwind:
Hello everyone,

I am writing to share with you what I found using HTC HD2.

After a bit of time from the starting of the phone, something happens that raises the following issues:

1) text messages remain in your Outbox;

2) In the programs does not work pinchtozoom, except for Opera, Googlemaps and Copilot;

3) in the YouTube application does not appear the green volume indicator. This happens even in the music tab of sense.

When you restart the phone everything returns to work.

I think there is something that after a while it does not work as expected and affect the operation of this phone.

I made a report to support HTC and awaits a response.

ROM: 1.48.408.1 (71294) ITA

RADIO: 2.06.51.07

P.S.: Sorry for my bad english.
[HD2 General] fyth:
I have the green volume indicator problem lately. Whenever this happens, the screen will go blank if I tap on the upper taskbar. Soft reset will solve the problem.

Anyone knows y?? :(
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
All those are pretty common and discussed here a lot. I suggest searing a bit.
[HD2 General] ppmwind:
thanks Dr.Sid... i try to found thread with volume indicator and pinchtozoom problem, but i found only thread about sms problem. can you help me to find it.

thank-you very much
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] htc.user:
My question is concerning the possibility of activating my Sprint Touch Pro 2 on a Korean service provider like LG Telecom and their OZ 3G data service. If anyone has any experience with using a cdma pocket pc in Korea, please let me know. Thanks.

I post here because I read the following here:

c. If the Rhodium supports having the telephone number programed into it, does that mean that I can have another CDMA service provider (in a different country of course) delete the existing number and program in a new telephone number?

A. Of course you can. It just depends on the service provider although not all of them might co-operate and would be willing to do this. Why? Simply beacuse it might affect their phone sales.

If you are willing to do most of the work yourself, check out this thread at PPCgeeks.

OZ 3G data service background

Up until now, there has been limited adoption of 3G data services in Korea because they have been expensive, hard to use, and lacking in content. Today, we offer our new OZ 3G data service on our upgraded EV-DO Revision A network, dramatically improving the user experience over our existing CDMA2000 1x network.

OZ service launched in April 2008

In April 2008, we launched our OZ-branded 3G data service to give Korean consumers a more convenient, reasonably priced alternative for truly open mobile Internet service. We have also partnered with Naver, Yahoo!, and a large number of other top portal sites to further enhance the mobile Internet experience.

The new 3G market innovator

With the launch of OZ, we are progressively expanding our handset lineup with models designed to make 3G data services easier to use as well as offering a very reasonable introductory tariff plan. Now, subscribers of all ages can freely browse the Internet, send email, and instant message friends in addition to all the standard data services they’ve come to enjoy
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] A|ex:
Does anyone know where i can get a custom keyboard for the touch hd which is similar to that of a phone, no up and down arrows or any fancy buttons. It would make typing on it much better as the buttons i would assume would be bigger since you have cut down the number of un-needed ones?
[HD2 General] StealthNet:
i`m currently playing and tweaking my 3 day old HD2. Shame I got one, now my Rhodium and Kaiser are oldish and forgotten =) What a wonderful device the HD2 is.

So far, I´ve managed to tweak all the things I wanted, except for one: in all other devices, I can access the system page and a "keylock" option there, so I can configure the device to wake up ony if the power button is pressed while locked. There is no keylock option in the HD2, and while in the pocket, buttons keep getting pressed and the screen is turning on. I want to reduce that to as few times as possible (since battery life seems to be a problem with the HD2).

Any ideas ? Guess they removed the keylock option simply because the HD2 does not have a power button... anyway, waking up the device with a specific key (only) would be nice.

tia
[HD2 General] Rikko:
I'm looking for the same thing. Please advice!

/R
[HD2 General] mcvpjd3:
Add me

to the list that would like this option. My HD2 is always being turned onin my pocket and its seriously reducing the bettery life!!!
[HD2 General] StealthNet:
ok... bump. My day ended up with a dead phone. The screen turned on so many times that the cellphone got warm... more than once.
[HD2 General] rahulelectra:
doesnt it has Automatic lock ????
[HD2 General] StealthNet:
... it does... and it works. Problem is not locking or remaining locked, but the fact that the screen turns on even locked.

I mean, if you lock the phone, there is only 1 way to unlock it (by sliding the unlock button on screen). But hitting *any* button (except for the volume) brings the display up. Since the buttons are elevated, it´s not that difficult to keep hitting the buttons while it is in your pocket.

The end result is that the screen remains lit, wasting battery. It would be nice if, once locked, only 1 single button would bring the screen on. That would reduce the chance of turning it on by accident.

With my Kaiser and Rhodium, both have a power button. Once the screen is locked, the only key that will bring it to life is the power button itself (that is somewhat difficult to hit by accident). But the Leo does not have a power button.
[HD2 General] :
Would the leather case solve that? I know it's more impractical but if anything saves battery it would be worth it.
[HD2 General] StealthNet:
Unfortunately, no... In fact, the standard leather case (that came with it) is so tight that if you put the phone with the buttons first, they get pressed.
[HD2 General] :
Yeah just tried, don't think it will loosen any more either. I guess you need a jacket pocket with plenty of space, a trouser/jean pocket would be fine until you sit down.
[HD2 General] StealthNet:
Well, didn´t find any app that would help me do this trick. In fact, a simple app that enable us to configure the key that wakes up the phone after locking, could solve the problem. Was thinking about changing to the volume down key (guess it is one of the hardest to accidentally press, like when in a pocket).
[HD2 General] CHIP STAXMAN:
As a temporary measure, if you use the leather slip case it came with, put the phone in upside down so that the USB is pointing out the open end.

I've bought a leather executive flip case that stops accidental button pressing. But it's not everyone's cup of tea to make the phone bulkier in the pocket.
[HD2 General] p7822:
Any people can provide other solution like change the registry or make a simple software?
[HD2 General] clockworxx:
Bump - someone must know the answer - I hope!
[HD2 General] alex fung:
Just to share my experience.

I never use the leather case. It is too tight to squeeze in. And the HD2 is not as fragile as the other models. However if you use a screen protector, then you may find that it is pretty easy to scratch and dent the screen protector, which is rather visibly annoying.

As for keylock, I think TouchLockPro is rather good. It can't stop the end button from waking up the phone. Nobody can, because it is the only method to wake up an HD2. However, you can set the phone to go back to sleep in say 5 seconds. Or you can keep it always locked when it is dark (in your bag or pocket).

Looking to ressurect my old HTC vogue now that it sounds like Android is working well enough for everyday use. Looking for a full out NAND flash that will let me run it nativety leaving WiMo behind. I don't care much about what version of Android is running, just looking for suggestions on a speedy and close to bug free version I can flash to NAND to use everyday.

Camera is the lowest priority for me, first off I care about Batt life / not missing calls or texts, secondly I care about speed, third I would like Data and stereo Bluetooth. Anything extra is not a priority. Please help and thank you.

use the androidinstall.tar that DZO has in the first post of his flashing android to nand thread.

if you want bluetooth then use the build dzo has posted in the flashable linux and android thread. it's based on 1.5 cupcake which supports bluetooth.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] DaanJordaan:
For all of you who are running wavesecure, don't make the same mistake I did!

Here's wat happened:

I lost my phone after a short walk around the block. I tried to call it to hear if I maybe left it in the pub where I was at the moment.

I called it three times, but the fourth time some ***hole turned my phone off:mad: so I succesfully tracked the location a few times and eventually locked it with a message to bring it back to the pub I was in.

This was a big mistake! he never turned it on again. He ended up with a fourhundred euro brick well **** 'm then

I couldn't live without a Hero, so the next day I bought a new one:p

But my advise to all of you is:

1: Run WaveSecure Preferably cooked into MoDaCo's Custom Rom

2: If your phone gets stolen or if you lose it DON'T LOCK IT, just track the location and the SIM. Until you have enough information to go to the police or something, or go pick it up yourself ofcourse:p
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Dan330:
sorry to hear that buddy...

if someone stole it.. and you lock the phone..

I guess 99% of the time... the phone will go into a trash can

or

they will throw it at the wall to take out their frustration on it, and see how many pieces will hit the ground!!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] PulpzillA:
well its better for it to be trashed than for the thief to sell it and make money.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pulser_g2:
@1. Absolutely, there is virtually no point in using WS if it isn't in a ROM. You can actually do it to any ROM, since all the update.zip file does is copies the apk file into /system/app instead of /data/app. That way it cannot be uninstalled through the normal 'market' method.

@2. That's a valid point! I suggest people who need to should set a 15minute tracker on it (can be done from the website). I wouldn't suggest manually locking it out, but I might contact the dev and suggest a 'stealth' mode that would allow you to track the phone, and basically turn it into one huge piece of 'spyware' when enabled. Legal issues could be a problem there though, as in nanny state UK, the thief of your phone would have the same rights to privacy of his/her illegal use of you contract as you would have normally.

<Rant>

A friend of mine had their PAYG phone stolen. So I called up for them (because 'I'm good with these sorts of things', apparently, and got the SIM cancelled. I checked the balance on the phone, and they told me there was about £1 off it since the theft. I had answered all the usual security questions like 'How much did you last top up by?' and 'How do you normally top up?' and 'What postcode do you tend to keep your phone in most of the time (ie. overnight)?' etc.

So, I asked them if they could give any details of the usage, and after a bit of polite chat and banter, they said there were quite a lot of SMS messages sent to various numbers, but they couldn't give any more details. I considered escalating this issue, as the account holder was my friend (who was sat beside me at the time listening on speaker phone, and who was happy for me to 'act on his behalf', yet they wouldn't tell us any of the details. They also claimed to not be able to track the Cell-ID of the phone, which I know is nonsense, as their own security question was to do with where the phone is normally kept overnight. If they had given a postcode, that could have been given to the police officer who had been 'assigned' the case.

</Rant>

But the network wouldn't give the info to the 'account holder', so I would strongly recommend that everyone installs WS, at least before 31 Jan, so they get it free on their IMEI for life. That way, you can locate the phone every 15 mins, and also use 'backup' to see their call history/SMS history. Could help get it back, or at least 'intimidate' them if you live in a country where you actually have a right to your own property...

But let's not let this go off-topic, so sorry for the rant, but yes, I think WS is important to be installed to ROM (ie. Modaco)
