[Shift General] allan@portlock52.freeserv:
Can anyone tell me what the latest Bios level for the UK shift is and where I can download it.

According to HTC's support site the only level they have for upgrading is 1.0.0.8. I have seen on these forums level 1.0.0.16 and 1.1.0.8 so would be interested having a link to the latest so I can upgrade (mine is 1.0.0.16).

Thanks

Allan
[Nexus One General] heroskyy:
I'm kind of confused. After flashing cyan's rom, my service keeps switching between 3g and H. This has not happened prior to me flashing the rom though. What is H? Is it a fixable problem?
[Nexus One General] Raymond77:
Could be wrong, but it's probably H for HSDPA
[Nexus One General] Dayzee:
Oooh its actually a bonus for me at least, since before, my Nexus showed 3G whther it was connected to the faster HSDPA or to 3G (Unlike my Hero, which showed H or 3G)

will have to give CM Rom a go once my Nexus arrives back from HTC :)

[Nexus One General] melterx12:
Cyanogen's ROM enabled the notification if you are on HSPA network. I beleive you will get 3G if your network changes to UMTS (depends on your location). The stock ROM shows 3G even if you are on the HSPA network.
[Nexus One General] heroskyy:
Ohhhh alright. I understand then. It still bugs me though lol
[Nexus One General] johnboywilson:
Yes i can verify this is the case, reason why i jumped ship to cynogens rom ;)
[Nexus One General] Router:
since by default the phone is after the fastest avail option, it tries to get to 3G. if and when you are in the area with uncertain 3G coverage, it could scan and switch to 3G, then to HSDPA (hence - H) or even EDGE (E)

I have this mess on the stock N1 - 3G-H-E changing constantly in some areas.

bad thing is that in such case my data stalls:-( I guess it has nada to do with Cyan's ROM. fwiw
[Nexus One General] Paraglider1982:
No he must have done something, normally Nexus only shows 3G even if there's HSDPA.

I have HSDPA and here with Stock ROM it only shows 3G, but you can see in the Settings at Status that you've got HSDPA.
[Nexus One General] TaFFeR:
Actually, HSDPA is faster than "3G" (which I'm assuming is actually UMTS), so your phone will use HSDPA whenever it can, then downgrade to 3G if HSDPA isn't available, then EDGE, then GPRS. HSDPA is actually considered "3.5G, 3G+ or turbo 3G" according to its Wikipedia entry.
[Nexus One General] TaFFeR:
He did do something. Someone already asked him on Twitter and he answered here.

This reminds me of my times with Windows Mobile where you'd change a registry setting to make the indicator show you had an EDGE connection instead of always showing G (for GPRS) :)
[Nexus One General] Paraglider1982:
Quite nice, I was missing this on Nexus :)
[Nexus One General] melterx12:
did you even read what I wrote? The stock ROM has the H icon but for some reason its disabled so that only the 3G icon shows up if you have HSPA. Cyanogen simply enabled the H icon to be usable.
[Nexus One General] heroskyy:
I wonder why though, they would disable it...

I cant think of any solid reasons, and if it is in-fact better then "3G", You would think they would want people to know that they have a faster connection present..

but anyways, thanks cyanogen :)
[Nexus One General] Swervo:
Given the confusion in this thread alone, which is presumably made up of people who know more about their phones than the general public, I think it's reasonably obvious why it's disabled. The phone companies have spent lots of money and time marketing "3G" to the public - most people will know what you're talking about if you say 3G, almost none of them will know what HSDPA is, and I doubt the cell phone company wants to spend the time to explain that it's actually better than standard 3G to every customer. It's just that much easier to make it say "3G" and be done with it.
[Nexus One General] gadgetgaz:
ISTR that my Hero and Touch Diamond2 before that, and Touch Cruise before that, all showed a 3G symbol on hsdpa until you were actually downloading something - then it changed to show a H before returning to a 3G when stopped downloading.

I think!
[Nexus One General] Paraglider1982:
@ melterx12

My Post was regarding this, it can't be that has H in display with stock ROM :)
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
So, this 'H' HSDPA signal display should be a fix in the OTA update?
[Nexus One General] HTCDevil:
Is there a possibility that someone answer here and explain how to enable H icon showing?

I think it's in framework-res.apk but don't know where exactly...

I don't want to install a cyanogenmod rom or others to have it. Who have already done it, could share that information with us...this is a forum.. :D
[Nexus One General] suffix642:
+1

I want to enable the H icon on the stock ROM.

Rooted phone, custom recovery, locked bootloader.

Is this possible?
[Nexus One General] HTCDevil:
I'm not able to decompile framework-res.apk to source...i've done some tries but with apktool that's not possible...

It is not sufficient open it with winrar or similar because config.xml is in the core....
[Nexus One General] norazi:
it shouldnt, you want H as that means its on a faster network than 3G...

4G/WiMax/LTE > H/HSDPA > 3G > 2G/EDGE
[Touch2 General] Stuhl_im_Orbit:
Hi guys,

I currently have a XDA Orbit and I'm thinking about buying the Touch2. The problem with the Orbit is the combination of poorly accessible microSD card and veeery slow data transfer rate via USB. Unless this hasn't been improved dramatically in the Touch2, it would be no buy for me.

Does anyone have some MB/min data?
[Touch2 General] Nietfou:
It depends on the connection mode choosen. When choosing to connect it as a "disk", copying a 142MB folder takes about 35s, so it gives about 4MB/s. It probably also depends on the SD card speed and number of files to transfer.
[Touch2 General] Frank C:
I use already for some yrs "tnyynt tune up". Install attached CAB. Also your PC has faster and slower USB ports, select the right one.

Assume you connect storage card directly to PC and not via phone because that goes much slower.....:(

Have used several HTC devices (with Mega software) and speed was never a problem.
[Touch2 General] km:
Hi,

does someone know, if you can mute the phone if you unplug the headset?

This was possible for the TD2 with wm6.5

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] iRobert:
Hey folks,

think I found the iPhonish-****y-Icon-Style; it´s in the Rosie´s APK: "/res/drawable-normal/container*.png" and "/res/drawable-normal-land/container*.png".

So, I don´t know if the APKs have a checksum or some other check, anyway we could put some empty PNGs there :-D Does someone want to test this?

I ran into an interesting thing witch now became problem when using windows mobile phone :

1 contact cant have more than 1 mobile phone !!! Many of my contacts have 2-3 mobile

phones witch they use for different areas or different types of calls, and i can only enter

1 mobile phone and others i have to use as Home, office etc. Now i dont know wether i am

noob who doesnt know to enter another mobile phone either in Contacts on the device itself

nor in Outlook Express on PC, or the Microsoft scre*ed up on such a simple issue, but even

if i enter the phone as Home or Office, i do not have some options to send SMS/MMS to them

and similliar stuff. Can anyone enlight me in this this way? Cheers.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] skr_xd:
It doesn't matter whether cooked or stock ROM,

1. just use the normal procedure for updating ANY ROM.

2. Once, HSPL is installed & you install any ROM, it will update everything except SPL.

If the ROM you are using have Radio, it will update the radio also.

3. The SPL in stock ROMs till 1.66 is 1.42 only.

Only the 2.series ROMs seems to have different SPL versions.

Also, if you want to remove HSPL or update SPL(not advised) you need to use storage card flashing method.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] antoniomistretta:
If the install as it is, through ActiveSync. remains CotullaHSPL.

La scarichi e la flashi tramite pc! Ho fatto così e mi è rimasto il Bepe & Cotulla HSPL!

[HD2 General] RolandCruise:
Is someone experiencing a problem with Opera that cannot save files to the SD card using the last official italian rom 1.66?

Qualcuno che usa l'ultima rom ufficiale 1.66 italiana ha notato un problema con Opera che non riesce a salvare sulla scheda di memoria e crea invece una cartella "Scheda di memoria" nella memoria del telefono?
[HD2 General] ghale:
Yes, I can confirm that ith Italian ROM, any file saved on Storage Card (in italian linked as "Scheda di memoria") is saved in a folder called "Scheda di memor"!!!

Argh!
[HD2 General] RolandCruise:
This is very annoying...donwloading files to the SD card is quite vital...should we expect another hotfix now? or is there a way to solve?
[HD2 General] lorezz:
saturday i'm going to flash my hd 2 with 1.66 (ITA),in thi way perhaps i will know how to solve this annoyng problem....
[HD2 General] nortonxita:
I have the same problem with the new update ROM ITA, there is a change in the registry to solve the problem? help please

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exidler:
May be this tool will be usefull.

It switch off screen using proximity sensor detection.

Like alternative power button.

After proximity detected - screen switched off and proximity sensor don't used until screen will be switched on again manualy.

No screenshots

Second time running will unload program from memory, it can be used for switching on/off proximity lock feature.

All settings in registry, settings reloaded on each program run.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Exidler\Hd2ProximityScreenOff

AfterCallReactivateSensor = dword:150 - time in ms when activate proximity sensor after call ended

SensorOffWhenProximity = dword:0 - time in ms when disabling proximity sensor on proximity detected. May be useful for disabling accident detection. This time proximity sensor is still active and if no porximity detected with this time - screen will be switched on automatically

ActiveOnlyIfLocked = dword:0 - Activate Proximity sensor only if Phone locked.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Exidler\Hd2ProximityScreenOff\Exceptions

Create any named sub keys with values:

ClassName = string - name of windows class

WndTitle = string - title of window

ProcName = string - name of process

For exception windows proximity sensor will be disabled if this one window is active.

All criterias are optional. For example create only one value ProcName="Explorer.exe" for disabling proximity lock when Resco Explorer is active.

Proximity sensor activated only in portrait mode.

Change log

2010-01-29: v0.2

- full uninstallable cab

- add options: After Call Reactivate Sensor, Sensor Off When Proximity, Active Only If Phone Locked, Exception windows

- disbaling Proximity lock when landscape mode

2010-01-28: v0.1 Test version. Bugs possible.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] richardirv:
Great something to get us started, did you make this yourself? Are you willing to put some time in to perfect it & create some options etc. if we bug test it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ET:
How will this effect the screen turning on after a phonecall, i wan't the screen automatically turned on after a call without having to press a button.

Will this tweak allow default function in that case?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exidler:
I don't know which options may be added.

I'm can't full control proximity sensor. It's only possible to enable proximity sensor, and htc drivers switching off screen by itself. The i'm disable proximity sensor again :)

But if it's will be possible to implement some features - i can try to do this.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] richardirv:
Ok this is a good start, for me the following things need to be worked out for this to work good.

1. Only works when phone is upright, ie. Portrait. Reason being is if the screen goes off via Proximity in when holding the phone in landscape there will be allot of accidental activations, especially while playing games etc. It is much less likely that proximity will be detected when holding the phone upright.

2. Screen needs to come back on when proximity not detected, as to not cancel out the in call screen off feature.

Will keep thinking! Really hope you can work some magic here exidler!! Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exidler:
it will handle proximity sensor to default behavior after call. so i think (and shure) - screen will blink for short time (~200ms) and will be switched off by tool.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ET:
Let me test, I assume the cab can be de-installed and everything is back to default behaviour?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exidler:
in call screen back on when no proximity

when not in call - it switch off. or you talking about switching on screen when not in call?

about landscape and portrait. it's make easy if screen orientation really changed (if not - polling g-sensor - is not a good idea for battery i'm think)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exidler:
Cab is Uninstallable, but you must close program manually before uninstalling: run program second time, it will show message about closing
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] richardirv:
I just ment you don't want it to interfere with the in call actions the HD2 already has.

As you say g-sensor polling etc. no good for battery. I have a feeling this maybe flawed before we get started.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exidler:
program know about call and not be interferace with HD2 proximity call actions.

Landscape alternative - Programs (windows) exceptions - when it's active - promity sensor may be disabled. (but this feature need more time for apply)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ET:
Just tested the app and maid an incomming call with an other phone, the screen will automaticly turn on after moving from my ear as should be.

Great app I must say!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] richardirv:
My fear is when using apps like fpsece etc, the screen will keep going off. Need to put our heads together and brainstorm some ideas to prevent acidental proximity.

The landscape idea with g-sensor was the first thing that came to me but hopefully there will be a better idea. Maybe only when the phone is perfectly horizontal (i.e as it goes into a pocket) The problem is keeping the g-sensor active will drain battery....

Idea's peeps!! ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ET:
Hmm no way of de-installing it. If I use the app and then push the on button and then try to remove the app via start/settings, after about 10 seconds the device freezes.

Even after trying to install the app again (wich usually workes to remove apps witch can't be completely removed via start/settings) the device freezes.

Taking battery out is only way to restart. App remaines on device though.

Noticed also that the app is flawed, trying to go with my right finger to the left top of the screen to push start makes the screen turn of and that simply sucks.

HOW TO REMOVE THIS APP?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exidler:
Before uninstalling go to install folder (defaul is \Program Files\Hd2ProxmityScreenOff) and run exe file inside Hd2ProxmityScreenOff.exe

You will see message about that programe closed. Tap Ok and then uninstall.

All be fine.

about freezing when uninstalling without stopping in memory process i'm know.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ET:
OK thanks, it's de-installed correctly. Maybe will use it in the future when it has matured a bit.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bib_x:
The programm should look on proximity-sensor, when i turn on my phone with the power-button.

--> if proximity detectet, screen should be staying off

--> if no proximity, phone should be wake up

Is this possible with your app? This would be a very great feature off our hd2! Perfect locking solution!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exidler:
it's not possible until full hack of promitiy sensor.

i'm not have a fule of knowlendge fo arm assembler interpereting.

it' not difficlt for poples, how have knowledge of arm programs research.

but for me, i'm only can handle simple events :(

We are waiting for full promitiy API :)

so all of yours requests is impossimle.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ahdai:
Its a good start. Keep the project on. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] MichelDiamond:
perhaps a little bit easier to develop and to get various possibilities:

could you add 2 parameters to your app:

-activate

-deactivate

or so.

then it could be called also from other apps depend on its needs and states.

And also one scenario: It should only work if screen is locked(using notification).Then it's sure,that it should switch off because sensor detection

Keep up your great work.A really good idea,which can be very useful, if adaptable and a little configurable.

Thanx

Micha
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pckshd:
Uh..no...

But if you are still using the lock screen then the concept differs from the one in Pocketshield:

This app will toggle screen on/off (you still need to unlock manually).

PS will auto unlock saving you that step (there is the main difference)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lecl0ne:
Ok thx.. Will think about it :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dainar:
The problem, in my humble opinion, is that when the sensor is obscured for a time less than the value of the parameter display will be on again and the screen should not appear to stop:

but back in that state was the first blackout of the sensor.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lecl0ne:
exactly. But "wild" screen-on when pushing the EndCall button seems to appear randomly..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dainar:
How strange!

To me the thing that works best is when I answer a call
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ephestione:
I'd like to point you guys to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=444215

This utility is frequently updated and developed, and the author welcomes suggestions. I tried getting touchlockpro to do the same I need off exidler's app, but as I am allergic to too much testing I bailed out for now, and you guys probably would be willing to give it a go and help the author develop it further.

I cannot seem to make it work for what I needed exidler's utility to: turn off display if I have the phone in the pocketand the buttons arepressed. This works in exidler program, but the fact that the screen turns on after you lock it with power button is a bug I am not willing to look over.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dainar:
since you solved the problem,

why not describe how did you handle exceptions?

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Lecl0ne:
Yeah, it can help us.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] elgar:
This is a great app. after using so many other blocking apps I still returned to this one. The only buv I cant solve is that when my phone is laying on the table with screen upwards, it keeps waking up by itself, and then go back to sleep again. does anyone know what to do from preventing such behaivier, and why it happens?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ephestione:
that is one of the bugs I had.

When I turn off the screen with power key, the screen immediately goes on... and when I have the phone on the desk, the screen will turn on by itself at random times.

Those are the reasons I am not using the program, and until exidler decides to correct them, well we're stuck with it ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gmod:
After uninstall, the proximity sensor now only works during a call. Is there an easy way to restore proximity function after trying this app? Thanks

simple idea but very useful tool!

Thank you!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lonelykatana:
not sure if its been talked about.

But i use the win icon in the top where the sensor is.

and often it turns the screen off..

would it not be possible for a timer?

Say, when you have your finger there (or anything) for 2seconds, screen goes off?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] webpatrick:

i tried to edit some reg settings but i don't have "Exidler" in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\" :confused:

i've installed the v.0.2

i have also a strange thing : when i switch the phone off with the right button, it switches automatically on after half a second. it's locked but i have to switch it off again...

do you have some ideas about this ?

thanks in advance !
