I also have this problem

I found out that the dialer instead of using the picture from facebook, it uses the picture that is on the winmo default contacts...

Does anyone knows a fix to display only the facebook picture instead the one that's on the winmo contacts??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] darnelhouston:
well i had this trouble but i updated my rom and backed-up my contact using pimpackup. it backups the contact and sets the current (facebook) picture as outlook picture. then you reinstall the backup file which will delele all your pim and install your contact with their default pictures as outlook thus end any dialer problems you're having. you should call and see their the picture you had
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] onesolo:
Hmm, I always use PIMBackup to backup and restore the contacts, and always have the default pictures from the outlook. But what I want is that facebook pictures become the default ones...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] seanvree:
Which program are you guys using to sync your contacts with FB?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] zelendel:
It is built in to HTC sense. If you go to all people and then slide over to updates and events then log into your FB account
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] seanvree:
Ohh, I have the TP2. . . can I download a program that will do this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] zelendel:
it is built into the TP2, if you are using the touch flo ui. Slide over to the people tab and select all people and then slide over to udates and events and log in
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] seanvree:
Yeah, but I'm not using Touch Flo, so I"m looking for an App.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] zelendel:
You could try this, remember to read the whole thing first
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mhurg:
I don't have an issue with the pictures, but stuff like birth dates. For some reason, when I sync contacts with FB, I get their birthdates and with a FB logo next to it. All well and good, except the birthdates won't pop up on my calendar, making it practically useless.

Now, if I type in their birth date manually it automatically updates the calendar.

Anyone know how to fix this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] zelendel:
Have a look here. It is what I use
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mhurg:
Not bad at all, but it's too much for my taste. I just want the FB birthdays on my peoples tab to be registered in the calendar, nothing more, nothing less. Thank you for the recommendation, though, much appreciated!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] jontp2:
similar problem here to.

When you try to link a contact to a facebook profile you have to choose from a list provided by the phone, my problem is that this list is not correct. I have old friends that have been deleted and don't have some existing friends.

I've tried logging out & back in, I've tried doing the link whilst logged in via IE/Opera & the facebook app & I've tried soft resets etc with no luck.

There seems to be various versions of similar problems all over the forums & I'm guessing the problem is getting touch flo to correctly update your friends list from FB.

More worryingly the list I'm given to choose the link from shows me info from FB profiles that I have deleted that appears to be current, so somehow my phone is gaining information from a persons FB profile that it should not be able to access.

I'm eeven given the option to link with a guy who is not & never has been on my friends list, never even heard of him!!

Anyone care to take a stab at this?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] jontp2:
Been doing a bit of poking around & found that the images for the list you are presented with when trying to link contacts to FB are stored in My Device/Windows/FBContacts/

To do a simple test I renamed 1 of the files, went back to the link contacts list & hit refresh a couple of times .. no luck the relevant image had dissappeared, all it does is refresh the images from the FBContacts folder.

Corrected the file name back to the original, hit refresh again & up it pops.

So refreshing the list of FB contacts does not access your FB account at all.

Anyone any idea of how to force this??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ridds:
All seems to work fine and dandy on my Rhodium.

Using 4th September Energy ROM

I use hotmail to manage ALL my contacts.

Edit details on there

sync phone using messenger to download contacts

log in to Facebook on phone

check tab to use Facebook pictures in profile.

You have to have the SAME name as your contact as they are registered on Facebook with. Not useful when people change their names on Facebook!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] vic000:
if you want to get the image on the display when calling, you have to go editing the contact, push on the image of the contact on the right, and you should be able to select which one pic to take.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Tripp-phpBB:
Not sure if this has been mentioned as it's late and I haven't read every post in this topic but recently while messing with my TP2 I found you can link people invidually. If you go to edit contact at the bottom you can link the contact to a friend on Facebook(Assumed you're logged in) From there you can type a name and select the friend and it will load their default picture as the contact picture, birthday, etc.

Sorry if it's been mentioned or this is part of the problem, just throwing my two cents in real quick. :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] brent372:
I am using a program on my computer called Fonebook (http://www.developingtrends.co.uk/Software/Facebook/Fonebook/Default.aspx)

If you sync your phone contacts with Outloook on your PC then this will work with you (or even with Exchange).

Fonebook changes the Outlook picture of your contact to the Facebook picture.

Then when you sync with your phone, both pictures will be the same.

Works great for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] krazydude:
i have installed spb mobile shell which syncs with facebook.

the easiest as you can link only the contacts you want :-)

I thought it would be a great idea for us to have discussions and brainstorming Wave's for the forums. This would be much more convenient for posting links, videos, pictures, feedback, etc. what do you guys think? :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] KonAitor:
I have been thinking of upgrading to the TP2 from my TP. But with the CPU and memory being the same, makes me worried about it.

The TP is ok, but is a bit sluggish. Are you guys seeing similar issues with the TP2 as with the TP?

I know the screen is supposed to be amazingly better than the original, but does it overcome the CPU and memory?

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RavenY2K3:
I upgraded to the TP2 this week, Monday in fact, I was pleasantly surprised. I as you can see from my sig, I've had pretty much every Touch screen device with qwerty keyboard they've made (except the universal) and I "personally" think its the best out of all the HTC devices Ive had, again see my sig for what they are.

I find it to be more responsive than my TP, even with the Stock ROM, Ive not tried any custom ROMs yet but I'd hazard a guess that some will be loads faster than stock. As for the screen, it is a hell of a lot better than the 1st TP. The only thing I've had to get used to is the lack of a DPAD, but i think this is more of a case of, most of the manufacturers following the iPhone route.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] gshadow325:
is it the same processor? wow i wouldnt belive it. i cant tell. i think its awsome. i moved from a fuze about 8 weeks ago, and 2 days ago i turned on my fuze to get it ready for another new owner, and immediatly i missed the LARGE screen. i couldnt navigate thru the menus without a stylus!! dont get me wrong the fuze was great but, the tp2 ...man, dont know what to say. awsome? do it...you wont regret it, at least i didnt!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] thedeadletters:
I've been using the Tilt 2 since October.

I don't think I could ever go back to the Fuze (AT&T's TP). The screen and keyboard are vastly superior. The Tilt 2 also seems to be a much smoother experience. Some criticize its bulk, but the keyboard is arguably worth the size increase. I don't necessarily miss the Fuze's dpad, although I thought I would. The phone tends to run much smoother than the Fuze, too. GPS locks are also much easier to acquire.

The Tilt 2's stock ROM came with Sense 2.1, which was nice. But a taste of the beautiful Sense 2.5, and its homescreen with awesome weather wallpaper, superior "Top Friends" tab, and email tab, made me forsake 2.1 forever.

I'm flashed to the latest Sense 2.5 Energy ROM (love them). There lies the main concern: my longing for the HD2. Although 2.5 runs well on the TP2, I would say it is about 85% consistent in its stability. The contacts get messed up now and then, there are some lockups, Footprints doesn't function (for me), and there are some other minor issues. I imagine that the HD2 runs everything just about perfectly; after all, it is the hardware for which the software was designed. I'm still not sure if I could live without the keyboard, but I'm considering it.

Other options that I would consider are checking out the Droid or waiting for the HD2. If you are happy with the Touch Pro, completely satisfied with Windows Mobile, and want a better screen and keyboard right now, then go for the Touch Pro 2.

hello to all.. i just followed the wizard guide on wm6 roms and flashed mine and so far works great on my o2 xda mini s. thanks for all who contributed to the guide..

just wanna ask though, do i need to go back to ipl/spl 1.xx if ever i wanted to switch to another wm6 rom? The rom i currently flashed has an ipl/spl of 2.xx..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] amishra123:
No i dont think you do but it is advisable you flash back to the original tmobile 2.26 rom before you flash another custom rom, atleast thats what i do!! Hope i have been of help!!

Amishra
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] janil:
ah.. okay.. what if currently i have ipl/spl version of 3.xx will it also be safe to flash directly the tmobile 2.26 rom? just wanna make sure that the possibilities wouldn't brick my phone.. :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] janil:

anyone can help out?.. cant seem to find any threads regarding this.. :(
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goff.caley:
So i have a question, and maybe its a quick answer, but when you are upgrading mods, is it best to do a complete wipe, and upgrade? Or is it better to just stack the builds? Thanks for the answers ahead of time!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
Must not state obvious...

Wrong section.

Anyways depends what rom you go to, they all have there own rules. Hero wipe, ecliar wipe, donut you should be good without a wipe
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowch31:
What part of the 'Questions & Answers' section don't you understand?

Also read the requirements for each rom.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goff.caley:
I knew i was i was gonna get flamed for posting in this section. My apologies, i was not aware of the Q/A section. I feel better about doing a complete wipe and doing a fresh install. I keep reading about these recovery imgs, i have one, that was created with Flashrec(Cyan 1.4) what is the .img of? Can you just replace that .img, if it was imaged while it while on the stock .img? I'm curious because if so you should be able go back and forth with ease in theory right?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrutalHoe:
First step Slap yourself n start posting in right section especially if u knew about Q&A section there for u dont deserve the answer and i hope every1 else will ignore ur stupid thread for that reason.

Second learn read the rules.

Third use the search button.

Fourth reading is essential

Fifth thanks for a good laugh

and 6th just click on the god damn link in my sig for recovery image ugh im too nice....
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goff.caley:
You guys are real arses i said i apologize i guess none of that matters thanks for the link though
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAguirre1231:
I do recommend using Amon_ra's though. It has every option in a nice menu to choose from. Just follow the instructions and you should be good.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garok89:
ok, you made a mistake....a mistake we see atleast 3 times a day

most of us who have been here for more than a few months are sick fed up of people not using a little bit of sense

if people would search, read rules and post in the right bloody section, we would be much more accommodating

Please see my website for descriptions and downloads.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] m4xx0rz:
I loved the other ones you just posted recently. They look great with the silver of the HTC contact set up. I will download these as well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] m4xx0rz:
So, I installed them, and I'm having a problem.

As you can see, one icon was replaced, one was not.

On another Person's icon, the button for the work number changed. It seems it's only the compose text one that isn't working.

Any ideas? I'm using the December 31st version of the Energy ROM, 6.5, with Manilla 2.1 Sense.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] brent372:

Hey guys i know theres tons of 3.5mm to 11pin miniusb adapters out there for htc phones now but for my purpose i want to be able to make phonecalls and listen to music with my own pair of headphones (i have a built in mic with the headphones). So I'm thinking about purchasing this adapter

Product Description:

This adapter does not have a built in microphone. It does however have microphone pass-through - this means that if your headset has it's own built-in microphone then you can use it to make calls. This feature is not compatible with some headsets with adjustable microphone volume.

Key Features / Highlights:

High quality genuine HTC accessory

Compatible with all HTC phones with mini-USB connector

Technical Specifications:

Colour: Black

Weight: 6g

Weight including product packaging: 8g (find out more about how we calculate the delivery costs based on weight)

What's In The Box:

1x HTC 3.5mm to mini-USB Headset Adapter with short cable

Additional Information:

Manufacturer: HTC (more HTC products)

Guarantee: Original Manufacturers Guarantee + gocellular.ca standard warranty (12 months from delivery date) (more info)

Direct link to this product:

http://www.gocellular.ca/index.php?cp_sid=8040113c44c3&cp_pid=186&cp_tpl=product.html

Those are the main details of the adapter. Its a genuine htc accessory and it claims to have a microphone passthrough and i really hope it does. I'm wondering if anyone has bought this adapter and has had success with the microphone passthrough function? I'm not doubting the product its just that i've search on ebay and amazon and havent found the same device and wondering if anyone can confirm it does indeed allow headsets with a built-in microphone to work.

Flashing Motorola droid to Cricket...?

Is there a step by step way to Flash Motorola Droid to Cricket. I have heard that Cricket uses a proxy. There is a some info on the web but most of it is partial or sketchy at best. There is also some talk that the Droid will only support voice and there is also problems with certain apps. If anyone has some info please post.
[Android Software Development] amigoingcrazzy:
You wouldn't need to flash the device, you just need to have a way to change the ESN of the droid to your phone number in crickets system, and you would need to know all of crickets server settings for their cell phone network, and program it into the droid using ##PROGRAM in the phone and hit send to get to the manual programming menu. A tech at cricket probable has access to the manual programming settings, but whether or not they're willing to share with you is another story.
[Android Software Development] rshimizu12:
This does not make sense. If only a ESN # change was required then why would they be Flashing the Droid for Cricket. It's hard to say since I am unfamiliar with phone flashing.
[Android Software Development] los1223:
I would like to know as well. So far what I've read is settings for EVDO don't stick. They revert back to verizon after a reset. So everything works, but that. And without EVDO you're stuck on 1x internet... If anyone has read anything to the contrary or knows how to do it, I would be more than greatful if they would share =)
[Android Software Development] dexter35803:
LMFAO that is funny as crap u dont kno ne thing about flashing u need to put a cricket prl on the fone to be able to use the fone kn cricket wow that is really the funniest thing i have ever heard
[Android Software Development] forceshield:
lawl wayz to mahk ur 1st pos+ ratarded.

Switch back to your LG's operating system.

These phones carry everything with just some codes to access not like nextel/metro, but it defaults after reboot.
[Android Software Development] -RioT-:
If I root the droid and put CM on it would i be able to keep the ##PROGRAM settings after a reboot? I want to avoid paying 50 bucks for a F***in "flash"
[Android Software Development] JeezyMT3G:
FLASH FLASH FLASH ... i got the full flash for a Droid 2 then rooted

i get 3g and 1x never EVDO in my area..

Ive flashed like 3 roms already and havent lost flash

:)

i recommend it

if you know what ur doin ;)

Edit: Plus if you flash via Cricket Retailer they will reflash for 1 yr if you lose flash..
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Aricrj:
Is there a widget or something to customize my homescreen? Seeing how on android and BB phones they have a super notification panel that displays Facebook notifications and instant messages the user recieves, I'm just wondering if there a way to do this on my Maple's homescreen. Is there a program out yet that makes this possible? A homescreen plug-in, widget, anything! I know this isnt so much to expect so im wondering if something like this exists! Thanks in advance
[Dash 3G, Snap General] raphaelc:
it really depends on what you want to do exactly. to start off, you can customize the homescreen with CHome Configurator. If you want to go further, you can install a custom ROM such as those proposed on this forum.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Aricrj:
Are they able to sync with your social networking sites? I never seen a custom rom that can do this. All im saying is that most android phones and blackberrys can do this and winmo still hasnt implemented it. Which is why I was wondering if there was a plugin or widget that could do this.
[Dash 3G, Snap General] raphaelc:
there is a facebook app available on the windows marketplace, but i don't know how the notifications are implemented in there since i don't use it. you should just try it out, but as for notifications, don't expect it to be better than android, after all it's win mo...
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Bupahs:
Yes and no. It can be done if you edit your xml files. Any static information can be displayed.. even Facebook and Twitter. I have my twitter displayed in one of my panels on my home screen (its done via rss feed) and it updates once every 15 minutes. CHome Config will do most of the work for you but you will have to tweek it. You could also create a widget (there are tutorials for widgets online.. google is your friend here) a widget is just a web page in effect, compressed into a small package that PIE an open and display. You could also use Mortscripts to pull the info you want and display it.

There are options, you just have to educate yourself on them. WinMo has always been a "do it yourself" OS, I like it because of that.

Hi,

I managed to change the icons of an app using hComber and it shows up great but how do i also make the changes so that the new icon is displayed on the task manager screen.

Right now, the icon on the task manager is still the same original ones before i changed it using hComber.

[HD2 General] bel_z_bub:
I love the intergraded facebook functionality, specially the photo feature to view them in HTC Album.

Now I can view albums from a lot of users, but from some others I can't.. while in the standalone facebook app, which sucks compared to HTC Album, I can view the albums ok.

Now this could be due to certain facebook account/privacy settings, but I've tried about every setting I can find in facebook but my own albums won't show up in HTC Album.

Am I missing a setting? or is this just a known bug?

I've set the permissions for the albums to "Everyone", as well as the photo application permission settings itself. And the profile share privacy settings for photos is checked (and everything else just to make sure) but still they won't show.. they do show in the standalone facebook app but I would really like them to show up in HTC Album.

Any advice or help is much appreciated!
[HD2 General] oneshotaz:
Had the same issue, apparently it's about the privacy settings of the users. If some of them don't have their picture in your phone, it means that your phone was unable to retrieve it due to some settings they made in their original facebook account
[HD2 General] bel_z_bub:
I understand that, but what about my own albums?
[HD2 General] warnold007:
Up for this question!

Can you guys see your own albums just fine on HTC album?

It says "The user has no albums to display"

but I know I have albums!
[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
I just had this issue, then realised that I recently changed my facebook password and didnt reflect this in the integrated version. So now, it tells me that I have albums, but the images wont load up...the loading animation just goes around in circles.....
[HD2 General] Karlos G:
Yes I can see mine no problem at all.
[HD2 General] bel_z_bub:
That's great man thanks for the help!
[HD2 General] bel_z_bub:
that happend to the albums of the ones that I could see when I had the camera icon disabled in the registry.. if you've also done that, turn it back on..

I am quit new to facebook and the users that I can see albums from are quit long term users.. maybe it takes a while... or it has something to do with new facebook accounts..
[HD2 General] sunnymiu:
Yes with similar problem too. I can see the album names but no pictures can be displayed, HTC Album only shows me a 'forbidden-like' icon. The problem will not occur while the ROM is freshly installed, but will happen after few days.
[HD2 General] myth1001:
Try this?

Hope it works for you.
