[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] theyllib:
Still no word on the release date, even of the beta? Im pretttty anxious. Tried to email chainfire but no response..

How do you go about making something like that? Ive never messed with drivers of any sort but id sure like to learn, anyone know a good website with some info on it?

dont worry he is still working on it, idk of the eta.

As for reverse engineering the drivers...i have no idea :)

There is no need for a Special SDK on the HD2 ;) I just used a standard HTC SDK for it and it works fine ^^ I do not know if the Diamond SDK is the one I have
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jug6ernaut:
for the g-sensor yea, the one chainfire is working on(i think hehe) has the gsensor as well as the other sensors that the current sdk doesnt have like proximity sensor i believe.

[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
Hi,

As the title thread suggests, I am no longer recieving sound or vibration notifications for SMS or emails. I do not recall changing anything recently to cause this issue as I am now (was) happy with my setup etc.

I am on the 1.43 WWE O2 Rom, with SMS, Camera and SD card updates.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

P.S. I did search the forum, and yielded no useful information.
[HD2 General] snerkler:
First hing I would suggest is to check you sound settings, if you've changed your ringtone volume for example this can also change your sms alert volume. Also check the settings for your message notification in you settings menu. Other than that it might be a software problem, in which case I'm no use to you.
[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
Thanks for the response. One thing I have noticed is that I am using G-Profile to manage my system and ring volume in different environments (work and home for example). When using the volume rocker, the volumes adhere to the G-profile settings, however now for some reason, within settings, a different configuration is revealed...

UPDATE: Uninstalled G-profile and Windows settings adhere to volume set by volume rocker, but still no sound or vibration when recieving messages. Just to confirm, all is fine when recieving voices calls.
[HD2 General] snerkler:
Sorry, I've not used G-profile so can't help. I'm sure someone else on here will be able to help you more :)
[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
Any body else experiencing this issue? I dont want to have to hard reset.

Thanks.
[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
HI,

I have found the issue to my stated problem. For some reason the HTC Sense "alert" sounds and vibrations are not playing. If I go into Manila and set it up using an old WM message tone, it works fine.

Any idea why my message alerts would become corrupted?
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Innovator:
Hi,

I have lines all over my screen (no bootloader mode ;) ) which change colour, also after a hard reset, but i can receive gsm signal, but I see nothing on my screen.

Maybe i will reflash it this evening, but I think it will be game over...

Think the internal display is broke (the glass is perfectly ok), i did nothing special and kept it in the leather cover in my pocket...

Anyone has a tip for a new htc phone, not too expensive with gps & wifi ?

I saw you have cheap second hands p3300's for only €100, but it would be my third one then, so i'd rather like another type this time.

Anyone suggests another newer HTC with GPS+WIFI+PHONE that costs -€200?

It may be a second hand also, as long as three above options are possible.

Thanks!

Best regards,

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] nunilo:
just my opinion, some faster device with bigger ram/rom capacity than artemis, maybe second hand dimond or tytn 2, You can probably find under 200 €

HD Touch Pro 2 :)

pppppppffff just missed a htc hd touch pro 2 for only €300!!!

First I was interested in the diamond 2, but don't like the metal+black front.

going to pay something more €375 for the hd touch pro with keyboard !!! :)

I checked out out the videos and felt in love, cannot help it :)

For my first p3300 I also paid €550 back in the days, so why not this professional one.

It's not so thick if you check the comparison pictures and videos :

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] thormdac:
well, if that is the sum you are wanting to invest...I advise you to go get yourself the iphone 3gs! sells around 550€ unlocked new...

i have ditched microsoft for good...and I am seriously impressed starting from my macbook pro 13,3" to my phone...

been an alltime windows freak...but seeing how easy cumputing can be with macintosh i will never return!

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Zetsumei:
if you spend a lot of money now i personally would go for the HTC HD2

As the HD2 will support windows mobile 7. The artemis thanks to xda has had a beautifull life, and i think that the HD2 with the capacitive display can serve you for just as long.

Personally i'm soon buying an omnia i900 to replace my p3300 for the simple reason that i can get it for 75 euros used, and can still sell my p3300 for nearly the same. For the money the htc diamond is really cheap as well.

Hi.

When TomTom catches GPS signal, after showing my position on map, TT immediatelly falls down, and it seems the GPS is still active, because the orange diode is blinking like the TT was running, but it doesn´t..

I have original 3.28.405.0_WWE rom with original radio 1.65.17.56 with SPL 3.28 (not x.xx_hard!)

I had TPC_stock_like_rom for few hours with recommended SPL hard3.34 and 1.70.18... radio, but I put back the original ROM.. The problem with TT was never before flashing TPC rom..

Where can be the problem please?

Thanx a lot

EDIT: Nobody knows? :-(

EDIT 2: The problem was with the microSD card.. I have a "nobrand" ****, few hours ago I have formatted it, and after few minutes of using it deffinitelly went to the sillicon heaven..

Please, which brand of mSD should I choose into my Kaiser? Kingston, Transcend, etc.? I want to buy min.4GB card..

Thanx a lot

is this possible... ??

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] salim1001:
Why would you want to do that? It is still in BETA stage and battery drainage is completely high....unbelievably high.

If you still want to go with it 2 options:

1 - Buy a Android Phone if you love it so much.

2 - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=601751

This link will give you the steps - this is what it has to say:

15.01.10 UPDATE NEW*GSM RAPH ONLY: MichyPrima has created a lite WinMo that automatically loads haret from your SD card. It loads pretty quick and i can confirm it works Give it a go if you're tired of waiting for WinMo to load. It now has a boot option so just wait until you see Booting countdown and touch the screen. It will offer 4 options

Reboot, Shutdown, USB mass Storage and Continue Booting Android

[Nexus One General] xd_sjo:
Hi all,

I'm working through settnig up my new Nexus One which I purchased directly from Google. I am based in the UK and using the O2 network.

As of yet i've been unable to get a 3G connection. My old phone, HTC Rose, could get 3G (or HSDPA) both at home and in the office. I've yet to see my N1 get any 3G connection at all. It does however connect using GPRS, but this is too slow to be useful and won't sync properly.

I went into the testing menu and changed the band to 'euro' in the hope this would resolve the issue. No change. Should this be set to euro for UK, or just Auto? I don't travel much these days so not worried about roaming issues.

Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
[Nexus One General] skillian:
Is it possible you need to manually input the APN settings (Settings->Wireless & Networks->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names)?

I had to do this to get data working with my 3 SIM.
[Nexus One General] xd_sjo:
Interesting. I had no idea there were such things for 3G and as such have no idea what i'd need to enter for O2! I'll have a quick google.
[Nexus One General] xd_sjo:
Okay, I created an APN called 'o2', told it the APN was 'mobile.o2.co.uk' and left the other details as default. I enabled the APN (I believe) and now have a G icon on the task bar with up/down arrors that appear to be doing something. I assume this is the sync stuff rather than an indication of 3G connection.

In the phone details/network section, it still states GPRS.
[Nexus One General] PAO1908:
correct, G is not 3G, so you are on GPRS connected at the moment.

I live in Switzerland with a US Nexus, no problem at all with 3G/Edge/G.
[Nexus One General] skillian:
I haven't tried these as I'm not with o2, but this looks like it might be useful for you:

[Nexus One General] neilosb:
mine pops up with a 3g icon, it doesn't indicate HSPDA although you can see this by dialling

*#*#4636#*#*

in there you will also see some different network connection options that might help

I think the preferred network type should be set to WCDMA Preferred.

this means it will use 3G whenever its available.

I'm on vodafone but I Assume this is the same for O2
[Nexus One General] thebigshazbowski:
My nexus one qutomatically picked up the settings for my Vodafone SIM - most new phones should do this but it will depend on your tariff.

All though I do not know anything about o2 but For example with vodafone - they have 4 different APN settings depending on whether you're contract or PAYG plus Web or voda live access ... crazy!

So I assume o2 have the same so you are best suited to try all of them - one will definitely work.

I have no idea if these access points make any difference - all I know is I'm online getting 3G and my bill is unaffected :-)

a quick googling:

O2 WAP settings (GPRS):

Note: Different settings for contract and PAYG (Pay as you go)

[Nexus One General] xd_sjo:
Hi,

I've gone through this and added the two APN's and rebooted the phone. Unfortunately i'm still not getting a 3G connection but can't confirm if this is simply down to poor reception where I am or another/remaining issue.

I'll have to wait until this evening to see once I leave the office!

Thanks
[Nexus One General] xd_sjo:
This is interesting. I'm wondering if the difference is that i'm an O2 Business customer, not residential. I definitely didn't get any automatic APN's!

If you get time, would you mind sharing the info of the APN's you've got that work? and/or confirm they're the same as on the forum link guide above :)

Thanks
[Nexus One General] cptb:
I'm on O2 too and I'm definitely getting the 3G icon with those details:

I haven't done any speed tests though.
[Nexus One General] mjwatmough:
you could be experiencing the spotty 3G connection issues. I'm using a Business O2 Simcard on a Nexus One, if you're getting a G signal I think that means your APN settings are correct.

I solved my issues by:

Doing the *#*#4636#*#* command from the phones dialer

Clicking "Phone Information"

Scrolling down to the pull down menu which will probably be set to "WCDMA preferred"

Changing this to "WCDMA only"

Waiting for this to register and for me it then shows a 3G signal.

Then I turned this back to "WCDMA preffered" and it seemed to 'remember' it was in a 3G area.

I think I had to do it once more in an area where I should have been getting 3G but apart from that it's been fine.
[Nexus One General] artesea:
The APN settings wont make any difference (other than not connecting to either G or 3G at all).

It's going to be down to lack of 3G coverage in the area, either through a 3G cell fault, or no nearby cells.

If the phone fails to find 3G in areas which other phones get full signal, check *#*#4636#*#* with WCDMA only, if it continues to fail your phone is faulty.

[Nexus One General] Antiskunk:
Unfortunately, o2's Network sucks.

They said they had the largest EDGE network to get the iPhone... They Don't, Orange do.

My brother found this out the hard way, NEVER getting EDGE and barely ever getting 3G.

The problem lies in their laziness. Unfortunately they own very low frequency bands (950mhz I think) so their basestations are very sparsely populated. Great if you live in a rural area, or in a mine, but terrible if you live in a town (or just outside of the town centre as my case was), especially when the cell shrinks due to the amount of people connecting to the single base station.

On the ofcom website it shows the basestations on a map for UK users; in my area There are 4 3/T-mo basestations, 3 Orange basestations, 2 Vodafone (one 2G only), and 1 o2 Basestation.

Don't think i'm biased because this comes from a person who has a family connected to every network; sister and brother-in-law on Orange with a G1 and N95 8gig, Brother with iPhone on o2, brother with iPhone on o2 and Nexus One on 3, Mother with vodafone getting a new phone soon, and myself, stuck with T-mobile UK, the bane of UK networks.

3 get's 3G EVERYWHERE (and uses Oranges EDGE), and although T-mo share the basestations, they get NO coverage, except in town centres with massive blackspots and shocking bandwidth. With the nexus however, T-mo gets even worse coverage, while even 3 gets worse coverage.

Vodafone have excellent coverage but I couldn't comment on 3G coverage so i'll leave that to someone else. Orange seem to have little minions following their users around with mobile basestations because there isn't a single place my sister doesn't get signal (3G) and also EDGE everywhere. Finally, o2. umm, no EDGE where there should be, even in town, 3G speeds are faster than T-mobile's when you get them.

Actually I suppose I am being a little biased. O2 does get excellent coverage, just nothing usable for internet/browsing usage.

And for those in America; those are the available networks in the UK, all of which are WCDMA.
[Nexus One General] GlenH:
Yeah, I think if you are getting GPRS (G symbol) they your APN is probably correct.

I certainly only have one APN for Orange, and that works for both GPRS and 3G.

You probably just don't have good 3G signal where you are.

p.s. I haven't encountered any of the alleged problems with 3G / GPRS switching on my Nexus one, it gets 3G in all of the same places my iphone did and happily switches down to GPRS when needed.
[Nexus One General] philaldred:
Hey,

Im also running nexus one on o2, up here in Manchester, I had to manually add the APN, these are the only settings I added(im on pay monthly):

Name: o2 web

APN: mobile.o2.co.uk

username: mobileweb

password: password

works 100% for me, across all speeds.
[Nexus One General] gf_gollum:
I tried my Nexus with 3 - and it refused to get a 3G connection - it also indicated it was in "roaming" mode and refused to change despite waiting 24 hours. I got a refund/cancelled my monthly payment. I moved over to Vodaphone and it took the phone 2 days to finally have the new sim authorised for 3G. I'd guess you might just need to be patient (although I guess its more than 2 days since you started this now)

Goodluck in your 3G search.

G.
[Nexus One General] artesea:
Not sure why you needed to wait 2 days for 3G to be authorised? All Vodafone SIMs work on 3G (although it's worth getting a newer one anyway), and nothing

needs to be done at account level to grant access. You just need a 3G phone and a cell which provides 3G.
[Nexus One General] xd_sjo:
Thanks guys for the advice.

I actually contacted O2 yesterday to get their view on the right APN settings and they are as follows :-

Press the Menu key
Tap Settings
Tap Wireless controls
Tap Mobile networks
Tap Access Point Names
Press the Menu key
Tap New APN
Tap Name then tap the text box and enter O2 Mobile Web then tap OK
Tap APN then tap the text box and enter mobile.o2.co.uk then tap OK
Tap Username then tap the text box and enter o2web then tap OK
Tap Password then tap the text box and enter password then tap OK
Highlight APN type and tap
Tap APN type then tap internet (so a green dot appears next to it)
Press the Back key five times to return to the standby screen.

I can confirm these settings work, however going by others comments it appears that multiple usernames do actually work. Not sure if there are any differences, or if infact the username matters!

I have managed to get 3G working at some locations, just none that I need. I suppose I was surprised that I had no 3G at work or at home where i'd previously received 3D service on my HTC Rose. It appears the receiver in the Nexus One is not as effective :( :(
[Nexus One General] gf_gollum:
don't new sims need to be "registered" - i certainly couldn't make any calls on the new sim for about 2 hours - I kept getting a message saying that the sim wasn't fully activated yet. Anyway - I trust you are sorted now?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tommyjakobsen:
Hello all,

I'm kinda frustrated with my HD2 device at the moment. It worked perfectly fine until a few days ago.

It has begun to freeze _very_ often. With some ROMS it can't even boot up. It freezes when I have to enter my PIN. On other ROMS it is guranteed to freeze when using ActiveSync/Exchange.

Using HSQL, I've tried L3v5y, XannyTechRom, and MIRI. All with the same result.

Have you got any ideas whats wrong with my device?

Any help will be much appreciated.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KB24@CL:
I have no idea about whats wrong but this has been a common issue/problem for many members...I don't think I saw this many issues with the HD...I dunno whats wrong with HD2 or the ROMs that it starts freezing for some...maybe the HSPL is buggy? I dunno to be honest.

maybe you should install a stock rom in between or go to MTTY and see if that fixes the issues for you.

Overall tho, its frightening to see how many people have freezing issues with Sense after flashing a couple of custom ROMs...I'm afraid it might eventually happen to everyone and thats why we need to find out what is causing this.

BTW try to format your SD card and then flash a stock ROM without the SD card and see if there is any improvement...my guess is that it will work fine again (for a while at least).
