[myTouch 3G, Magic General] razz04:
so I called rogers here some cliffs

-called technical support them stating i'm running custom firmware, in which the issue has been resolved.

-says he cannot do anything, will need the build number etc so they can do an check.

-says internet will not be turned back on unless updated.

*told him to transfer me to customer relations

-told retention rep situation

-told him my work i need to frequently access my emails through out the day

-told him to show me where it says I cannot run customer firmware, says he cannot

-told him even if i wanted to update, not compatible with win7.

-says cannot do anything

*end*

My question is do i legally have to update?:mad:
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Ice dream angel:
legally you don't have to do anything but they are allowed to suspend your data :S
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] FoTwoZero:
There is no legal obligation. But I'd suggest updating your device. You can install the update via Windows 7. I know this for a fact because I'm running windows 7 and I updated my Rogers HTC Magic via Windows 7. It`s really quite simple but that said, I had run into a problem while updating and the tech support agent on the line said that he didn`t know what to do... lol. So I figured it out myself. It was difficult to figure out. But getting back to the point, you don`t have a legal obligation to update but they do have the right to ensure safety and by that said, means they can shut off your internet at anytime if it interferes with your safety.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bjtheone:
If you are running a custom rom you can just edit your build.prop file and seemingly pass Rogers scan. I did this and have been up for more that 24 hours so it might be a fix.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] zuk_:
I have the updated build.prop, and apparently I "passed" the scan -- rogers tech support is telling me that my account is no longer locked out. However I still have no data. I tried getting tech support to do a network reset, pulled the battery a million times, etc.

I suspect that it might take more than just passing the scan to get things working. i.e. Maybe a radio upgrade is required (although I've read postings vaguely suggesting that the radio upgrade is not the issue, so I dunno...)

Anyway I'm still without data. Just about ready to throw this piece of **** phone out the window and go buy an iPhone.

If you are on a custom ROM, can you even update to the Rogers one??
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Schism66:
Update...

Yes you can do the update if you're on a custom ROM. I was running myhero2.0.5 when I performed the update. I didn't have to run sync as they played out in the directions either.

Anyhow, phone is running smooth but am wishing I called Rogers and faked my update so to speak. Hopefully I dont have to wait too long for somebody to break this new Rogers spl.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SuperChicoMJ:
Hi Everyone!

Using MusicDock website to leverage my existing XM online sub without paying for the addational ATT one. Tried it today at the gym. Getting about 3 minutes of music, then the player stops, and if I try to restart it, I get an error in the media player. I am using the stock HTC ROM, with Windows Mobile Media Player.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kimtyson:
I remember reading somewhere that this is a known issue and there is a solution but I forget what it is. Try a search on Google.
[HD2 General] sectorlord:
just 2 months of use...???

Why HTC is lacking so much QA ????

Anyone has the same issue ???
[HD2 General] Rossimac:
I have noticed that my Vol Down key often does not feel as though it has any area of movement (as in it doesn't move much like the Vol Up key does when I press it).

It still responds well to key presses and never gives any false inputs, but still I'd like it so that I've got a feel for what I'm pressing down on.
[HD2 General] sunking101:
Was the volume button tight to start with, it has just got loose over time?

Two of my handsets had loose volume keys and one didn't, straight out of the box. I was wondering if the 'tight' one would become loose over time...
[HD2 General] sectorlord:
Where did you buy that???

I need one for my excel editing..

Anyone has a better way ?

thanks
[HD2 General] NZtechfreak:
There is an official HTC one available soon, fresh news about it came a few days back (try places like devicewire/clove/expansys). Its not the really nice (normal) looking stylus that HTC put in a patent for, but it is officially endorsed.

EDIT: Apparently Devicewire has it listed with a release date of Feb 15th
[HD2 General] sh2811:
Hi. I bought a pack of two from eBay for £13ish. They are made by DAGi and the seller is "base327111" (which I think are DAGi themselves). The stylus seems to look identical to the HTC version. With my limited use of the HD2 so far it seems to work OK.
[HD2 General] cayotte:
I also bought the DAGi one. It can be used, but honestly, not so handy. I prefer using my finger, more accurate.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dotster:
Do you have them kicking around on your harddrive???

For some reason, I only have the one for the HTC Magic:

"RUU_Sapphire_Rogers_WWE_2.17.631.2_release_signed_NoDriver"

I want to see if I can revert the current Rogers 911 update with these files.

If you have them, I would be deeply appreciative!!!

[HD2 General] Cass67:
Hi all,

im wondering if it is possible to elevate ones priviledges to the point one can copy out an (administrator?) owned dll to a normal user sd card .. i ask as i had the need recently and had the problem of the dll showing up in an explorer search and not having the ability to copy after the fact .. I read in the MS dev pages that WM6 introduced new infosec details that prevented the same as WM5 but yet short of dumping a rom or unpacking a nbh file myself i have found no way of simply copyng a dll or equiv etc .. ideas ?

I added some priv escalation cab i found while searching but it did no good (for me)

Cheers

Greetings,

Don´t know if it is a problem with WM 6.5, but Call Firewall doesn´t seem to work anymore.

Any ideas out there for a nice proggie to do call firewalling, based on black lists / unknown / private callers etc ? What are you guys using for that atm ?

tia!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Cass67:
There is an app for this ? Whats it called ?

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] knight900:
I previously was using call firewall on my touch HD with 6.5 energy rom and it works fine.

Have not tried of my current HD2 though......
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] compact_bijou:
Call firewall 1.4 - for me - works perfectly on my HD2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] StealthNet:
Well, that is at least interesting. I tried call firewall 1.4 too, and it installs, loads, but don´t work (eg. if I choose to block unknown calls for example, they don´t get blocked).

Really really strange. Tried on my TP2 with WM 6.5 and it didn´t work as well :(
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] minogue:
Am i the only here who dislikes having dark colored themes??

i mean the very few out so far are great but just not my type i like bright colors and am still holding out until one comes out but just wondering if theres others like me who prefer Bright Colors over Dark colors???
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Eclair~:
Lol I figured this would happen, mostly every theme has been complete monotone, I was surprised to see some even go as far as washing out the colors from the icons - I mean that is just too far, it looks rather yucky lol
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Ssantos6981:
I love Manup's Nextheme. I enjoy it much more than the Stock colors. Its great that some of the stock widgets have a translucent background rather than the solid black. I'm not a fan of wild colors, especially since his theme goes so well with the phone!

I can't say the same for that black and white with the colorless icons, bad taste IMO.

[Android Themes] georgegreco86:
Hey guys .. well i have a pretty sick ass theme put together, and i am at a loss here .. and i have PM'd almost everyone and the new flag-away response is gtalk me .. psh .. if it were only that easy ..

now question one .. when i go to sign my *.zip, it will let me apply the zip, boot, function almost 90 percent correctly, and than i will proceed to get a multitude of errors in my OS. Mainly my GApps. I have found that this only has happened on recent Cyan .2.3.1, and .1.2.3 - as well as EVERY 2.0. 2.01, and 2.1 build.

I NEED YOUR GUYS HELP. it just keeps telling me that i have a f/c and the usual shmiiit in between.. i am ready to pull my hair out. i have used Stericsons tool, and the cmd.exe method, and the right click. WHICH ALL USED TO WORK FINE..

PLEASE PEEPS. If you have any suggestions, or anything like that, email me, telegraph me, whatever your chosen means of communication may be. Thanks.

email - georgegreco86@gmail.com

gtalk - /\---------------/\ same

i have all error reports as well. LEME KNOOOW. THANKS
[Android Themes] xxmonsterx:
it happens to me randomly, wipe, 1.6 image, cm 4.xxx, theme.

but the first thing i did when i clicked this thread is clicked back but then i thought id give it a chance, next time try not to type in rediculous sized fonts it doesnt get you any more help than typing in regular sized font
[Android Themes] speedysilwady:
the reason your theme doesnt work on eclair is because most of the files in drawable within the framework-res.apk have been moved to drawable-mdpi

edit: nvm i think you said they work 90% on eclair roms? if so, disregard this post lol
[Android Themes] georgegreco86:
thanks for the insight....

yea i didnt think the massive font showed through the Header all the way through to the XDA welcome screen, damn im good...

im playin, i know man it was an error, just is aggrivating when all the 1.6 works, but noooooo 2.0? wow
[Android Themes] jairomeo:
Can you please fix your OP so it is not so hard on the eyes?

This isn't going to be a signing issue if you can flash your theme. You may want to post your theme or at least the images you edited so people can see what you did, you may have editing something you shouldn't have or did it incorrectly. Do you know what .9's you edited before? Did you look at any changes between the images from one version to another? In 4.2.x some thing have changes and images needed to be reprocessed and such for certain .9's. Btw, most willing to help would rather do it in gtalk over PM's. I know I do because it is easier to explain things on the fly rather then keep going back and forth on a PM.
[Android Themes] georgegreco86:
as op you mean signiture?

sorry man, kinda neebish on these, anyways got the signing issue solved, took about an 8th of chron, and some reading, and a COMPLETTTE redo. haha. got it though.. look out for my theme .. it will be out today, as well as Obsidian 2.1 - the REAL 2.1
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rjp20:
The battery life on my T-Mobile TP2 has drastically decreased since i put the new 6.5 rom on. When I had the regular 6.1 rom, the battery would last around a day and a half... now I have to charge the phone by the end of one day... I have direct push running with POP3 email set to check every 10min... but it shouldn't really make a difference since i had been running the same thing on 6.1 that i am on 6.5...

Whats wrong? Does anyone have a solution? Thanks!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] LJKelley:
Odd, I find the opposite on my T-Mobile TP2, battery seems to last longer, especially with 3G in the picture.

The only thing I can think of is maybe you have 3G coverage where you didn't before? I know that the new radio gets better reception, so is more likely even for me to be on 3G and T-Mobile is always launching new coverage.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orb3000:
That depends on 2 factors mainly:

- The ROM you are using

- The radio version

That together will make your battery life longer or shorter.

Try to test several combinations till you get the one works better and share it with us:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rjp20:
Ill try again tomorrow, but ive had this rom for about a day or 2 and its not lasting long at all....

Also, how do i check the radio version? I installed the new Tmobile 6.5 update...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] thevuman:
I hear that calibrating your battery will help.

Use the phone and drain the battery until you can't turn it on anymore. Then charge the phone all the way through. Don't mess around with the phone while it's charging. When it's fully charged, with the phone still connected to the charger, perform a hard reset (remember to back up your data and apps before doing this, since a hard reset deletes all your data).

I read that trick on this forum and tried it awhile ago. It helps a lot.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Schijthoos:
I'm having a pretty big problem.. I connected my phone to a laptop yesterday,and this morning my battery had drained completely. When I'm charging it with the adapter, it charges pretty fast (37% in 15 minutes) and it decreases every 10 seconds by 1%.

I've already had this problem a month ago with a new, and it got solved by flashing a new one (Valkyrie).

But now, I haven't installed a new ROM, it worked very well for 3 weeks, and now it starts draining :( does someone know what could be the problem here? Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orb3000:
I´ve heard somewhere it is not recommendable to use USB charge so I disabled that option and charge only with wall charger
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bluezz:
I got an unlocked HTC Magic (the seller was using it on Fido) yesterday and noticed the internet was not working. I went on Rogers website and got the HTC Sync software (140mb) and started the update. The setup told me I currently have x version and it is going to update to y version. After clicking next, the setup started the update.

Half way through the update, the phone's screen went dark and htc sync gave an error and said cannot detect phone. At this point, the phone is bricked. I have tried "Volume down" + pwr but nothing shows on the screen. Tried the "back button" + pwr too and the phone showed no response again.

I took it to a repair shop and I was told he tried reprogramming EPROM chip on phone ($40) but that did not work. Today he told me for $170 he can order a new EPROM chip and reprogram so the phone will be working again.

I'm totally bummed out now :(

Can anything be done about the phone or is it a goner? There is no point contacting Rogers either right? Would contacting HTC help?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] FoTwoZero:
I'd try contacting HTC before dropping $170 on the phone. You're better off asking them what happend as opposed to some joe blow at an electronics store.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] r3s-rt:
i second this statement. do you have insurance? if you have insurance just get a new one. :p
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bluezz:
Don't have any sort of insurance and even though the phone is less than a month old, I got no proof of purchase etc for warranty either :-/
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] FoTwoZero:
Don't worry about getting a new one yet, just ask them what happend and see if they can trouble shoot you.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] pyee0124:
I had this happen once. I was still able to fastboot, so I ran the update again and worked fine.

Yours sounds a little more serious, though.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] BrandoHD:
this seems a bit weird to me, are u sure it was an Rogers branded phone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bluezz:
It is not a rogers branded phone. The previous user was using it on Fido (sister network to Rogers).
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] KAwAtA:
Fido doesn't have the Magic, the phone is unlocked obviously, and hopefully it wasn't with another company such as tmobile.

And do you know what the motherboard version of it is?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bluezz:
Just found out the reason of brickage. It was not a Canadian phone to begin with. HTC checked using the IMEI number that its a Vodafone Spain sapphire!

Motherboard version 32B. No wonder it bricked on rogers update. I wish HTC Sync had seen that its a 32B European phone and not try to update it as a Canadian phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] BrandoHD:
Well sorry to hear that, the update was not for that type of phone in the first place...
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bluezz:
Yeah, the update was never meant for the phone. Thank you rogers for killing my data (Interwebs) and starting the problem in the first place.

I contacted HTC US who sent me to HTC UK, HTC UK sent me to Vodafone Spain, Vodafone said they will not help me without Vodafone SIM card and a valid Vodafone number tied to the Phone. They were not willing to even take the IMEI or Serial number on the phone.

At the end, I contacted HTC Spain which told me no matter which HTC I take it to, they will not fix the phone since Vodafone has bought all the rights on the phone from them (including repair and warranty). They also said Vodafone should have taken the IMEI number which would tell them this is their phone.

After all this, I think it's time to bury the phone in my backyard.
[General Questions and Answers] ATICE:
I've tried searching this forum for topics about it, but it's hard to find because I'm used to smf forums...

Uh.. I download pocket gba, then regular gba roms.. I don't know if there are pocket gba roms or if it matters... but the rar file was called just "PocketGBA" ... uh.. I extracted it on my PC desktop, then loaded it onto my AT&T Windows Mobile 6.1 phone... and yeah.. put the roms in there, loaded the bad boy up.. tried opening the roms and they're there but when I click on them it goes out of the program........ I have no clue why, it must not be working.. or maybe the fact that I unzipped it... Can anyone help?

[Hero CDMA General] maejrep:
So, I've been doing a lot of work with boot.img, kernels, playing around in fastboot (I was curious, okay?)

Anyhow, after a while, the bootloader suddenly started disabling my sdcard:

[ 0.000000] Kernel command line: board_heroc.disable_uart3=0 board_heroc.usb_h2w_sw=0 board_heroc.disable_sdcard=1 board_heroc.debug_uart=0 smisize=32 ...

The important part being "board_heroc.disable_sdcard=1"

Anyway, after fighting with it for a while and trying to figure out what I did to piss off my bootloader (let's face it, I wasn't surprised :D curiosity killed the cat), I finally modified board-heroc-mmc to ignore the disable_sdcard parameter, and initialize the sdcc anyway. That let me mount the sd card over USB, and that told me why the bootloader hated me:

/mnt/usb $ ls
qxdm_20100124_214457_1.dm qxdm_20100124_214457_2.dm
(etc)

Went back into fastboot and disabled qxdm:

fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

And now it likes me again:

<5>[ 0.000000] Kernel command line: board_heroc.disable_uart3=0 board_heroc.usb_h2w_sw=0 board_heroc.disable_sdcard=0

I saw one other post with a similar symptom, but slightly different, and for a GSM Hero (and with no resolution), so just in case anyone else comes across this in the future, this is a good possibility: you enabled **** you shouldn't have, dummy!

Hello Everyone,

I am a avid, aspiring developer, and as such I felt it would be mutually beneficial to start this thread. The Point of this this is for you [the users] to post up ideas for programs, and some sketch-ups of designs, and in return, I will try to make, and maintain, these applications.

In doing this, I will get the experience I need, and you [the users] will get the results that you [hopefully] want.

Below is [or will be soon enough] a list of programs that are developed or in the process of consideration.

Project List:

AutoSend - Scheduled SMS Sender [V3.5][NO LONGER BEING UPDATED]

CMail - A Replacement tmail for Devs and Advanced Users[V1.0]

Export-Studio - A FREE alternative app to export Contacts and SMS[V4.0 + Command Line Version]

Appointmentor - A command-line based app for creating appointments quickly and easily [V1.5]

ContactRetriever - A command-line based app for getting info on a specific contact! [V3.5]

CDL - A Command-Line based File downloader (designed with MortScripter's in mind) [Release Delayed]

CSort - A Command-Line based List Sorter (designed with MortScripters in mind) [V2.0]

ImgResize - A Command-Line based Image Resizer (Resize + Crop) [V2.0]

All2Reg - Based off of Msg2Reg, this will export MANY things to registry [Coming Soon]

TornadoClean - A utility for deleting old files/SMS/MMS/EMAILS with certain 'traits' specified by the user [Conceptual - PsuedoCode Stage]

CBRunner - [Idea courtesy of HowdyKeith] Runs EXE's (and possibly other file types like MP3, etc.) In the background so MortScripters can do their stuff! [V1.0]

CMessageSuite - A Re-Make of AutoSend with more features! [V1.0]

*As you can see, the list is sort of pathetic now, but with your help, I can bulk it up*
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
UPDATE:

A command-line version of Export Studio is now posted for all you Scripters!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Appointmentor[V1.5]

This program allows scripters and devs to quickly and easily make appointments. This program features the ability to set every parameter that a user could set thru the calendar itself (I believe...)

This Program Includes:

A documentation explaining all parameters

A small cmd-line app for creating appointments.

To Install:

Just download and extract the ZIP file to anywhere on your phone, and you are done!

To use:

Follow the parameters in the documentation, but as for running it, run it like any other command-line based program.

Tips:

Not all parameters must be set, as I have preset defaults (shown in documentation).

EDIT: DOWNLOADS REUPLOADED

V1.5 Update:

In this update, you can DELETE scheduled appointments. This feature has not been thoroughly tested, so errors may occur. Will test in near future. (If users could post back successes/failures it would help).

Please test it out!

*While I coded this on my own, credit must be given to google and this forum for its constant help in everything I do. Please don't forget that while these apps are free, donations are appreciated!*
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Update:

I fixed up a major issue in Appointmentor and re-uploaded it. Now it should work. All documentation is provided in the ZIP file. Please test and post results and ideas!!!!

:D
