really useful

I've been looking for the same thing.

I think that this is really useful and interesting. Why always use cables when we have these wifi capable devices, which operate Windows?!

I am surprised that no one else was interested and no one was able to give an idea if it was possible to make this.
[Off-topic] HD2_Noob:
Hey,

I have searched now for 3 days to find a php script / cms / groupware / anything, to sync(tasks, notes, contacts, may sms) my windows mobile (hd2) with an own "server" so that, no other "can" look at my data, like it could at free sync services ^^

I hope somebody already found some scripts like that, I may not be the only one with this ^^

All I want is to sync my phone with an own webserver and add/edit/delete task and so on (if this script can't do that, i will write this myself) but only the script to sync would be great ^^

Best Regards

Hey there people,

I'm having a seriously strange problem with my Touch Diamond. I did search the forum and didn't find anything remotely similar.

Here it is...I'm on a Virgin Mobile South Africa contract, and from yesterday morning I can't send any text messages, it moves to the outbox, and just stays there until I get a message saying message cannot be sent.

I have checked my service centre number, and i is correct.

Now the strange part, when I put my Vodacom sim card in my Diamond It Functions fine, and when I put my 'faulty' Virgin Mobile simcard in my old Sony Ericsson there is no problems of anykind!!

I have flashed several Roms, including Stock Roms, and have tried MTTY, still no luck...:(

Anyone?? Anything?? Please, this is very frustrating!!

Thanks in advance!!

I Love XDA!!!!

i have a diamond..am due for an upgrade in june..i wanna know if i should get an HD2 , nexus or hero...maybe wait for something better like an HD3( rumoured) i wanna know if the HD2 is worth it for me to be stuck with it for two years..i hate the diamond for freezing every now and then but love it cuse its an htc. i wanna know if the HD2 wnt give me same problems. i know it runs windows which is hella huge on ram causing all sortsa problems. android on the other hand is light weight and should not ideally give too much grief. please help. any nexus users? what do you think? is android really better than windows mobile? im curious about android since virtually everybody is taking that route.:confused:
[General Topics] orb3000:
If you can wait 4 months and $ is not a prob, go for the new upcoming devices.

If you can´t wait longer go for Leo, That great screen is not comparable on Nexus or any other...

Android is too young and immature for now, perhaps in the future could be a good option to WM but now now.

WM is more business oriented OS

Just my opinion.

Good luck,

Agree w/orb :) But, the Nexus is an awsome android beast, and has the best screen colors OLED (which is simular to tv's) ;)

My phone is HTC Magic 32A

I used a method in a forum to roll back from the Official SENSE.I have successfully change the phone to S-OFF and SPL(1.33.2009),

My current situation is

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2009(SAPP10000)

CPLD-12

RADIO-6.35.08.29

May 6 2009,00:17:16

My Problem is

Whenever I want to flash the radio (3.22.10.17),the phone sends the radio to the phone successfully, but when it writes the radio, the screen suddenly turns into black. And I wait for a long time,but nothing worked.

So,my geek buddy, how to solve this? :(
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] robocik:
in there it says that you should flash your radio FIRST, then hboot, then recovery... you did your hboot first i see.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] camus_dvd:
Thanks robocik, I flash back to 1.76 SPL ,then roll back the radio, it works now.:)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] robocik:
No Problem... but be careful next time, and read two or three times before you flash radio/SPL, thats most dangerous part of flashing.. you are lucky that you did not brick your phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] eyegor:
Wait...how did you ROLL back from official sense update!?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] KAwAtA:
I really don't think it's the official sense haha, maybe just a mistake.
[Touch HD General] kingofslide54:
Hi, guys.

First of all, please notice that this is not the typical 'Hi, I'm new, could you please explain to me what I didn't want to read in the howto?'.

I've been testing Android on Blackstone since the very first release, where nothing but the UI worked. I managed to make Movistar data work in each distro it was possible, read everything and searched everything, and the matter is this:

Movistar Spain 3G data is not working in most of the android distros. It worked in some pre-XDAndroid releases, and it worked in only one XDAndroid (January 18, I think, but I'm not sure). I'm not the only user with this problem (all Movistar users are affected) and it looks like it's an specific of Movistar.

Some times we complained about this, we were required to provide an adb logcat, but I don't know how to do it... i searched, but found myself unable to 'do that':o... as far as I know, any Movistar user did it.

But would like Movistar users to tell their experience here, and try alltogether to get a solution.

Thanks,
[Touch HD General] mcdull:
At least you read my ADB how to.. right?
[Touch HD General] kingofslide54:
I did, but found it too diffucult, or there was something that I didn't understand. I'll try again.

Thanks.
[Touch HD General] younxta:
It seems to be the same problem Vodafone NL users have. The only time 3G worked was couple of months ago, with one of TuxHero's builds by entering the apn manually in the startup.txt. With the xandroid releases no one the dutch Vodafone user has managed to make data work...
[Touch HD General] samsanchez88:
I have also tried MANY MANY MANY setups on my all the android versions i have tried and havn't been able to get Movistar Spain 3g on any of them since tux's....

It's quite frustrating.......

Anything i can do to help i am 100% willing to test!
[Touch HD General] fstluxe:
same problem here no data with vodafone nl . so vodafone nl and the spain movistar both have the same problem
[Touch HD General] jabejabe:
I´ve tried many setup but no works 3G
[Touch HD General] iagox:
Blackroid v0.2

There are a version of Donut 1.6 (Blackroid v0.2), the 3G is ok but is very unstable :(
[Touch HD General] fstluxe:
is can that version be used with the newest zlimage etc ?
[Touch HD General] jeanfrederic:
I have to admit i have the same issue with Mobistar belgium.

Worked with Tuxhero's build, but none Xandroid runs 3g.
[Touch HD General] iagox:
Yes, can be used. But is unstable too
[Touch HD General] iagox:
when turn on the telephone, there are errors... but one of them is:

init: cannot find setupmodem.sh, setupmodem disabled

more or less...

Anybody knows this problem? perhaps is the 3G problem...
[Touch HD General] samsanchez88:
I have tested the last release (4th feb) wich has some files from nexus one that could fix data problems but still nothing...

I havn't lost hope though!!!

Keep up the amazing work!
[Touch HD General] jabejabe:
I hope too
[Touch HD General] fstluxe:
hmm is somone already know whye this problem is coused ?
[Touch HD General] kingofslide54:
anybody did, as far as I know. but it would be nice if an españolito could make and provide the logcat. I wasn"t able to do it...
[Touch HD General] jeanfrederic:
Please mind some people have this issue with other operators in other countries.

In Belgium, Mobistar for exemple; in Netherlands vodafone ... Seems to be a proxy matter.

Read this page http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=584559&page=114
[Touch HD General] kingofslide54:
Thanks, jeanfrederic. Find some interesting things.

First one, Movistar 3G data includes a proxy, but you can override it in winmo with no problem (well, one problem: push mail won't work). BTW, it doesn't work on xdandroid, neither trough the proxy nor without.

Second, Movistar 3G, as VodafoneNL, also worked with tux's android.

I still think that It's something not related to the zimage, but the android itself.

[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
Well, it took almost a month to get here but it arrived! :D :D :D

I bought 2 desktop cradles and a spare battery.

http://www.netimes.com/shop/desktop-cradle-w-2nd-battery-charger-for-htc-hd2-t8585-htc-leo-p-2457.html?cPath=80_731

It came all the way from HK.

I thought the phone would charge only using the power plug but you have to use the usb cable. The power plug is used only for charging the spare battery.

Here are some pictures of it standing on my office at work:
[HD2 Accessories] bshakil:
Looks very good quality. But it seems like its totally standing on MicroUSB no other support... i hope it will not damage MicroUSB port....

wat you think???
[HD2 Accessories] enyaj:
HD2 is so pretty!!!! :)
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
It stays very well. The place where it stands its very tight and the usb port is not the support of the device. It stays there good even without inserting it to the maximum. I'm quite happy with it.
[HD2 Accessories] CloneboyZA:
Hey there...

Looks like the same cradle as the one I ordered. Still waiting for mine to arrive though. What is the build quality like?

David
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
The build quality is pretty good. Can't complain.

Its light, made of hard plastic and the sides have a silvery plastic cover.

Besides the silver sides (which give it a cool look) the rest is just hard plastic. On the bottom there are 6 rubbery stand points which give it a good grip on the desk.
[HD2 Accessories] CloneboyZA:
Thanks... Wish my cradle had arrived - left my USB cable at work, so can't charge my phone! :P
[HD2 Accessories] Prom1se:
Dont be so simple minded lol. Go buy yourself another cable for work and one for home ;)?
[HD2 Accessories] CloneboyZA:
Well, that's why I bought the cradle! :P
[HD2 Accessories] powerprog:
How many hours it takes to fully charge the original battery?
[HD2 Accessories] Duppsko:
I have the exact same one (I think), took me about two weeks to get it from Hong Kong to Norway..

The grip is firm, almost too firm for my likings.. Have to use both hands when lifting the phone off the cradle..

Question to lorin.bute: Have you experienced any problems when syncing with activesync using the cradle?? My computer recognizes the connection when I put the phone in the cradle, but I get a "time out error" when attempting to sync.. Works fine when using cable only.. Only tried on one computer though, and without the AC-adapter connected...

Speaking of which, are you sure the AC is just for charging the second battery?? I've allways thought that charging through USB doesn't give as much current (500 mAh or so?) as AC does...

One last thing: Do you have that INSANELY bright blue LED on the back/right hand side of the cradle?? It freaks me out! :o
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
Yes, the grip is quite strong.

I have no problems with the sync. I sync at home and it definitely works. At work, active sync runs but no items are synced. Everything works fine.

If i don't connect the cradle to the pc, the led doesn't turn on ... and there's no charge symbol on top and s2u2 does not show the battery. that for me meant that it doesn't charge with the power plug. Remember that i have the one with a spare battery charger.

Yes i do have the blue light... that goes all the way to the roof of the room :)

It doesn't bother me that much.
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
I haven't fully discharged it. When i do i'll let you know.
[HD2 Accessories] mofei1:
got my new dock today as well. Here are some (not so brilliant) pics :D
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
Is that the one with the audio output? Wasn't that offered only with the UK plug?
[HD2 Accessories] mofei1:
yes this one has the audio output, i'm currently charging using the usb cable although it did come with a uk plug.
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
Correction: It does charge only with the power plug. It wasn't before because i had the spare battery charging. Now its just perfect because i don't want it syncing all the time :D
[HD2 Accessories] vodanhdaisu:
I've also ordered the same style cradle with the OP. The total payment is just 30$. And as u said here, it seems to be worthy with that amount :)
[HD2 Accessories] carbunaru:
Cat a costat transportul si cat a durat pana in Romania (How much did you pay for shipment to Romania)?
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
The shipment costs 7 euros with the royal mail (which is very slow). I received it in almost a month. If you chose DHL for the shipment you get it in 5 days but you pay 20-30 euros.
[HD2 Accessories] mskip:
I bought exactly the same one from ebay just after christmas (cradle £12.99 free worldwide postage, genuine htc battery £5.78 free postage worldwide). Took about 10 days to get here from china but well worth the money and the wait. Yes the grip does seem a bit over tight and it worried me that putting it in the docking station and taking it out every day might start to wear on the sides of my phone but after using it for a few weeks I dont think theres too much to worry about as it seems to have loostened a bit now (although still a firm grip when docked).

Blue sync light can get a bit anoying at night as it lights up the ceiling but you can easily unplug the docking cable or just stick something over the led. Never had any problems with syching (make sure its plugged into an onboard port).

The mains lead is only for charging the secondary battery, the attached usb lead is for charging the main unit and for synching with your pc. I found this out the hard way when I thought the mains lead was just an alternative charger and left my battery on for 2 days only to find out when I plugged it into my phone that it was still empty LOL.

Pictures of front and rear attached for reference :)
[HD2 Accessories] Duppsko:
A bit off topic, but is that s2u2-wallpaper animated?? Looks really sweet!
[HD2 Accessories] mskip:
No its not animated sorry I wish it was but I can send you the image if you are interested.
[HD2 Accessories] Duppsko:
Ahh, to bad.. I saw a wallpaper like that one as an animated gif somewhere, but with qvga-resolution.. Thanks anyway!
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
SITUATION UPDATE:

I bought 2 desktop cradles, one for work and one for home.

The one that i use at work does not charge only with the power plug and the one at home does. So i started investigating and found out that the one from work is kind of faulty. The in-miniUSB went in the cradle too much and no contact is made at all. That's why it doesn't get any power. So i opened it up now and i'm gonna use some glue to make it stay there. I'll let you know later how that went.

The phone charges slow when using the pc usb connection. On the power plug its faster but i wouldn't go as far as to say it charges as fast as the original wall charger. I still have to test it more.

EDIT:

Yeah... so the damn cables have detached from the area where they were soldered. Now i don't have a soldering pistol. I have to wait until monday to fix it. So if anyone tries to fix one of these be very gentle with the cables.
[HD2 Accessories] Shrekkie:

I have received the same cradle from the same site.

I bought also a silicone skin for my HD2.

I orderd it last Sunday I have received it today. :D

Hongkong >> Netherlands

It works great!:D
[HD2 Accessories] warnold007:
So if you have one of those soft plastic silicone case, will it fit the cradle without removing it from the case? Probably not?

BTW, nice pics guys... HD2 really really pretty. :D
[HD2 Accessories] mskip:
You would have to take the case off or at very least take off the bottom part so it would fit into the cradle but thats the same with any phone.

Yes it is quite beautiful ;)

mskip is right...:d

It looks nice:D

[HD2 Accessories] mskip:
Yes its exactly the same model except the netimes one doesnt include postage :)
[HD2 Accessories] lorin.bute:
Mine is from netimes. The royal air mail (took almost a month to get here) costs 7 euros. DHL (4 days) costs around 25 euros. So i suggest you order more than one item from them to make it worth to chose DHL.
[HD2 Accessories] mskip:
Or just order the same item from ebay with free shipping anywhere in the world ;)
[HD2 Accessories] Gellenole:

Just 10 days to get at my front door all my stuff, wonderful service, just 40 USD shipping included.

Two clear screen protectors, one grey silicone skin and the 16,91 usd cradle.

The cradle works fine, but look ligth to handle the HD2 on top, I added some lead inside the base, and feels better and more stable.

The us charger is multivoltage and works as espected.

Nice buy.
[HD2 Accessories] doctajay:
So I just got mine in the mail and it seems like its charging the extra battery, but its not charging the battery inside my actual hd2. has anyone else had this problem? I bought it from the same place that mskip got his.
[HD2 Accessories] mskip:
Do you have both cables plugged in? The mains cable charges the secondary battery and the usb cable syncs and charges the actual phone.

Mark.
[HD2 Accessories] doctajay:
yeah man unfortunately when I plug in the usb cable to my windows 7 laptop or into my mac nothing happens and nothing lights up. returning this thing is going to be a bloody pain. i should have just gone with the more expensive sold in the u.s.

I got mine from xxx.superEtrader.co.uk for £12.97

Very happy with it, i don't use spare batteries as mines always charging in the car (Brodit holder) so just wanted to sync with cradle, having said that this will switch to just charging as well from normal usb lead so phones lead goes in my laptop case.

[HD2 Accessories] SMS92:
I've been thinking about a spare battery (regular size/capacity, the HD2 form factor is great as it is) and I guess it makes economical sense to go for one of these all-in-one cradles. Shame Dealextreme isn't stocking and undercutting everyone on HD2 accessories, though I've messaged them about it and hopefully they'll be getting onto their suppliers!

Everyone who's bought one of these - are they still going strong? There have been a couple of posts about dodgy build quality, are these just isolated cases?
[HD2 Accessories] .hide:
Like to check anyone using the battery that Ts is using? i have 1 myself. but i cant charge it on my device. the orange and green light keep blinking. the only way i can charge is through the cradle.
