[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ohyeahar:
This is by no means an "expert" opinion. But the general consensus nowadays is that only the HD2 is confirmed to support WinMo7 and our TP2 will not.

But, consider this:

-WinMo 6.5 was not meant to be on the Touch Diamond.

-WinMo devices were not meant to run Android.

-Sense 2.5 was not meant to come to our TP2.

Yet all the above are happening thanks to the great minds of XDA developers...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
I'm not an expert at all... :o

But it seems like it's one thing for W7 to be somehow cooked to run on the TP2, but another thing for it to run well, without excessive lag (for example).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rorytmeadows:
This is a great point. Whenever someone dares to mention WinMo7 on the TP2, you get flamed and the spec impossibilities yelled at your face. But exactly my point about what people said "couldn't" be done!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sukru:
It definitely won't be easy, but as long as the OS is cook-able, somebody will take on the task.

What worries me is though, WM7 may not be WM at all! Several reports told something about Zune OS being used instead, and being incompatible with any of the old applications. I hope not :confused:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
The Zune OS is based off of the Windows CE kernel, which is also the base for Windows Mobile, so there wouldn't be complete incompatibility as some of the false rumors lead you to believe. There are a lot of blatantly false rumors floating around on even the most respected WM sites, so take every unconfirmed rumor you read about WM 7 with a grain of salt.

Though I would love Windows Mobile 7 on the Touch Pro2, I have to say that it's pretty unlikely it'll happen. First, to everyone who gives the example of WM6 running on WM5 devices and WM6.5 running on WM 6.x/5.x devices, the reason this is easy is because all these operating systems (WM5-WM6) run the same Windows CE 5.2 kernel. It's a lot easier to backport an OS when it uses the same kernel. Windows Mobile 7 is going to be based off Windows CE 6 or 7, and it'll likely take a hell of a lot of low-level work to get WM7 on the Pro2.

If you don't believe me, look in this thread at PPCGeeks, where some of the most technical people discuss this issue in more detail. It seems to me that we'll need a new everything, from the SPL and bootloader to new hardware drivers (since it's extremely unlikely that WM7 will support the Qualcomm MSM series considering the rumored WM 6.5.x and WM 7 coexistance scheme, where only 6.5 supports lower end devices and hardware like the MSM series).

I'm not saying I don't want WM 7 on the Rhodium, since I really do, but I am trying to be realistic here, so I'm gonna say it's likely no to WM 7 on the Pro2.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] aZzz.bZzz:
one guy from htc russia announced WM7 minimal requirements: 8Gb onboard, CPU1GHz,FM, 5Mpx,compass,G-sensor,3,6",WVGA.

but of course its not true:)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orb3000:
My Universal (2005) came with wm5!

Then upgraded to wm6, then to wm6.1 and I got it working with wm6.5:eek:

I´m sure the great chefs here will manage something so we can have wm7 for sure!:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pdcpa:
Please don't shoot me. I guess this is just a plain old DUMB question, but anyway:

If I were to get a branded AT and T Touch Pro 2 and wanted to flash one of these custom ROMS, do I need to first unlock the SIM or does it matter as long as I am still going to be using ATT as my carrier?

I just don't want to get the thing from ATT and learn that I cannot flash it. My current phone is an unlocked Touch Pro which I recently flashed for the first time with the ENERGY ROM and as corny as it sounds, am happy with my phone again.

Please forgive me for asking; I'm an old man of 50 and don't understand all the things you guys talk about.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khtims:
You would not need to unlock the SIM. I use all sorts of ROM's on my carrier specific touch pro 2 and they have always worked great! You would need to HRDSPL your phone first but not unlock the sim. From time to time you may need to configure your device to work on the network but most ROM's have all that programmed in them to make it easy. NRG ROMs are great and I understand why you like them so much! Hope this helps you. If you have questions about HRDSPL then there are forums on that and the process is pretty simple.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khtims:
Just curious though... why would you want to purchase another touch pro 2 if you already have one?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Hamsteriel:
Sounds like he has the original Touch Pro a.k.a. Fuze a.k.a. Raphael

Sim unlock is not necessary, unless you plan on taking the phone to another carrier, or using a Topaz radio on your Rhodium
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
I think you misread the OP, he only has the original Touch Pro (Raphael) at the moment, and is considering a Touch Pro2. There also exist EnergyROMs for most VGA and WVGA devices such as the Raphael, not just for the Rhodium.

EDIT: Slow internet connection, Hamsteriel beat me to it
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pdcpa:
Thanks

1. Thanks to all

2. Yes, I have a TP(the original one that i purchased soon after it became available) I have not decided what to do yet, but I sure would like the larger screen on the TP 2. I think the tilt feature is really nice. I think the fact that you can with a ROM move it to WM 6.5 is nice. I do not know if it is the freed up memory on the Energy ROM or the 6.5 v. 6.1 Pro, but Office Mobile really works well now. Used to be so slow which I assume may have been a memory issue.

3. I got an iphone last year and was about to have to renew about 200.00 worth of programs I use in my job next month and miss being able to tweak even if all that means for me is being able to move the files around, have a storage card or multiple storage cards. I also like being able to sync with 2 computers and I hate being stuck with itunes as my file manipulator. Yeah I know you can jailbreak the thing, but that seems so retarded.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Big Dawg 23:
It appears you are on T-Mobile(At least in your Profile). If so if you needed to add a line you can get a TP2 Free by calling 1-866-464-8662 and press 3. Then tell them Promo code Windows Mobile.

I ordered mine on Monday.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] markarty:
Hi everyone !

I'm sorry I am a beginner with HD2 but here is my problem. I have the HTC HD2 in european version with english, french etc... languages input.

What I need is to have the BOPOMOFO traditionnal chinese input used in Taiwan.

What kind of rom can i install on my european version phone to be able to have English interface and also to be able to type with chinese traditional using bopomofo input.

Is there something official to install for it ?

Thank you
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] rlydiard:
Check this thread. @Bobsbqq is pretty good at coming up with support for traditional Chinese. I have not installed his ROM yet, so I am not sure which traditional Chinese input he is using. You could PM and ask.

Hope this helps you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] markarty:
Ok. Thank you very much. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] rlydiard:
You are most welcome. Let me know if you find what you need.

Hi,

I'm considering buying HTC HD2, and I wonder if anyone has used DVD Profiler Mobile on it as it has a capacitative screen and DVD Profiler links are very stylus oriented.

Thanks for any help.

In my Dopod, when I click on a TXT file in my File Explorer, it always opens in MS Pocket Word. Then I have to be careful to select the correct file save as text files.

I installed some alternative NotePad programs but there appears to be no way to change the file extension type assignments to start up the correct program instead?

I have googled quite a bit but came up empty!

Anybody solved this problem?

Thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] rxmeister:
AFAIK, Advanced Config has such an option to change file associations.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cruxader:
I had Advanced Config 3.2 already but did not know it had file association.

Found it under More Settings!

Unfortunately, when I tried to re-assign the program, it bombed when I was navigating the tree view.

Eventually, had to copy the application to \Program Files\ and select it from there!

After that, it seems to accept the settings.

Unfortunately, after the soft reset, the extension is still pointed to same application as before!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] cruxader:
Latest update!

Something very funny is going on.

Advanced Config shows that the file association has been changed.

TXT file is now:

\Program Files\PocketTextEditor.exe "%1"

However, when I click a txt file in File Explorer, it still opens with Pocket Word!

Did I do something wrong?

Thanks!

Hi i came across this interesting article regarding Cheap DIY car security GPS tracking device for cars.

The author supplies everything to get a simple but yet effective Car GPS Tracking Device.

Downside it uses Java so is limited to certain compatible devices, My idea is for a developer here to remake this application for Windows Mobile as it could be cooked straight into a ROM making it more reliable and just much more feature rich.

Also there are many older win mobile devices to be pick-up cheap that would make a great Tracker

Links to the Original Post Here:

http://www.gpspassion.com/forumsen/topic.asp?topic_id=116614

Links to the Java applications and installation guides:

http://drop.io/gps_tracker_240808

I just hope I can inspire a developer to take on this project as I think this has real scope to make use of old win mobile devices and possibly help owners to save on car insurance :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zajaklis:
heard about TrackMe ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wapvirus:
Track me is not a dedicated program for gps tracking I was talking about software that could allow the phone to be fitted with a pay n go sim card allow the phone to ring silent and send it's position back to selected phone numbers,email addresses ect.. (real time or timed intervals )sms or gprs

Then you could hide the device in your car permanently power it up and if you car gets stolen you can find it's potion and alert the authorities :)

Needs to have features like times and days that can be set up so say you don't drive your car after 11pm at night your set the software then if the car starts moving after 11pm the tracker is automatically triggered, Deactivate Reactivate via sms Check status ect..

I'm assuming you have T-mobile. If I'm not mistaken you will have no problem since you have a sim card that contains all the information that allows the phone to work with that provider.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] chaoscreater:
Hey guys, i've got a problem. First off, KforTouchPro works fine on my HTC Touch Pro, i can configure buttons fine for Morphgear, PocketGBA, SmartGear etc, it works wonderful. And as everyone that uses this app already knows, you have to switch the setting to MS IME before you launch your game emulator, or else you can't configure the keys. Well, my problem is, after i'm done playing a game, sometimes I forget to switch the setting back to default, and whenever i do a reset or shutoff my phone, it hangs at the screen right before it shows your homescreen and touchflo3d tabs.

Basically, for those that use EnergyROM, it hangs at the screen that shows you the black & blue background with the word EnergyROM 3.0 in the bottom left (or something like that, can't remember). That means you can't do anything at all, since there are no buttons etc for you to press as the home screen is not fully loaded, so basically you got a semi-bricked phone as no matter how many times i try to turn on the phone, it just hangs there, which results in me having to do a hard reset in the end.

To prevent this, you MUST restore the KforTouchPro setting back to the default setting, but sometimes ppl forget and this will cause a semi-bricked phone, which is very risky and quite dangerous.

So, is anyone else having the same problem as me?? Is there a solution to this??

And lastly, what's the difference between KforTouchPro and KforRaphael??

Hey

Avid user of nano groove for the HD2. Any one else using this and has it stopped working today? e.g. wont search, or log in?

Let me know
[HD2 General] cocks17:
Self fixed. They have just this moment released 1.02 version to fix the problem.

www.nanogroove.net if anyones interested. Works off of the online grooveshark service to acccess all their songs and your playlists. Really sweet app for only a one off $5, well worth it! Worth investing in compared to freeware groovefish where 70% of the songs dont work on that one.

bring on the 32gb Micro SD and my HD's complete for music then for when signals pants.
[HD2 General] arxx:
It's nice. But the developer should really think of caching playlists, and make an option to show the playlists when starting the app

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Read & search posts before you ask*

All junks will be remove for the lite rom. And eventually comes w/ a super full rom w/ Chinese support.

It may contains lots of software you may not need. Just take the lite rom,

OR

remove the shortcut and pretend they are not there for the full rom

:)

Some removed apps (MMS, Dialer, Opera, panels ...etc) and lots of useful software are included in the UC SDconfig package below.

Lite Extreme (Free storage/Ram 414mb / 164mb): Sole purpose is boot fast (35sec) and use other OS (e.g. Android).

Not intended to work proper as Windows Mobile

Lite Rom (Free Storage/Ram: 385mb / 164mb)

stuff removed:

Unnecessary services: (Error reporting, SQM, Logger, Catalog...etc)

Unnecessary WM program for me: (One note, Powerpoint, Acrosoft MMS, Welcome Center, Windows update, etc)

Help files html, demo movie, mp3, and most ringtones

HTC Task Manager (I prefer QuickMenu or Pocket Plus more)

All the cabs in the startup UC customization (will be provided as separate install)

Panel (cabs provided as separate install in UC package)

Camera shutter sound (cab to revert it back)

Skinned Dialer (** Cab for X1 original dialer here **)

Basic (Previous Medium without Manila.)

Lite plus the following:

Ramdisk for IE and Opera

RMVB support

TMC driver for iGo8

MS Windows Live, MarketPlace

Extra HTC stuffs (2G Dialer (cabs to convert to 3G dialer include in UC package), Volume, Album, Wifi Internet Sharing, Youtube ...etc)

Medium (Basic with Manila 2.5 Landscape)

Full (Medium + lots of tools and trialwares)

** Don't ask for S/N. Complaints of having/missing this & that software will be ignore as well **

Full ML (World Wide English with CHT/CHS/JPN support)

Handwritten of HTC EzInput not working. Please use included 蒙恬

Screenshoot of V5.0 Full ML:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Installation

Installation (**UC start automatically in first boot**):

Install HardSPL

Use RUU tools or Micro-SD method written by me

Optional: Download my UC package, extract that to the root on yr SD card (can be the same card for flashing yr X1)

Optional: Rename sdconfig.txt.sample to sdconfig.txt. Review the UC content and sdconfig.txt. And put the SD in yr device in first boot. (Tips to re-run UC after the 1st time)

Convert 2G to 3G video dialer: Install HTC_2G_to_3G_dialer.cab and HTC_3G_Video_Call.cab in the UC package.

Some cabs and extra files you may need.

UC package template w/ arcsoft MMS, removed panels, games, Opera (tweaked to use ramdisk) ...etc. (Please review sdconfig.txt before proceed)

HGPS Switch if you use TMC driver with your GPS software

UC ROM SDConfig.txt Builder. Highly recommend tools for UC process.

HTC task manager. Install and soft-reset

Other SIP for CE star (For ML version): Japanese (extract to /Windows), Zhuyin注音 ,ChangJei, pinyin

FlashLite 3.1 for Opera is builtin but some videos in youtube require flash9 support which could only play w/ flashplayer7, choppy but works)

6Fg8 Power Radio (For FM radio playing)

Removed Pocket Powerpoint

How to use my SDConfig package (learn UC here):

1. Extract the zip file to the root of yr micro-SD card and you
should have a directory structure w/ SDConfig.txt under "\Storage card":

\Storage Card
|
|---UC--|
|---apps (folder)
|---config (folder)
|---License (folder)
|---panel (folder)
|---shortcut (folder)
|---Myinfo.xml (file)

2. Myinfo.xml is for personal information Name,
email that can be generate easily w/ the tool I suggest above.

3. Edit SDConfig.txt to suite your need for what to install
after hard-reset. And put the needed files in corresponding folders.

4. My supplied SDConfig.txt example will:
a. add back the Xpanel w/ panels apps I want
b. install Google map, opera ...etc
c. Copy/move shortcut for start menu
d. Copy the license file [U][B](NOT INCLUDED)[/B][/U] for Resco Apps
(Explorer, picture viewer ..etc), Core player, Gamin Mobile
XT ... etc [URL="http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3570978&postcount=225"](Tips for how to UC the registration)[/URL]

For all WM rom, SIP change may become slow after lots of software installed. Here is the solution that works by re-import the CLSID in registry. (Backup first!!!)

Ramdisk Size:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RamDisk]

"Size"=16

Config Opera to use ramdisk, modify opera.ini:

[User Prefs]
Cache Directory4=\ramdisk\

[Disk Cache]
Size=14000

For people have free memory concern, care only for how many % free ram, and willing to run the X1 slower. You can save 20mb of ram by removing:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\PreLoadRes\Module="\\Windows\\PreLoadRes.exe"
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Services\ResProxy
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\ResProxy

AGPS setting is imported from AT&T Pure, and tested to be working (not sure for other carrier and region). If you have a wireless data plan and want to enable it, set 1 to HKLM\Software\HTC\SUPL AGPS\EnableAGPS. Note: it will start data connection automatically everytime you use GPS!!!

Sliding keyboard to wake up the device

Re-assign XPanel button
