[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
As for connection - you connect and disconnect through Comm Manager.

It doesn't turn off by itself what is quite handy if

you rely on constant connection.

Just disconnect when you want to stop it..

Thanks...anybody know of a good, I guess, WM tutorial video for me? lol...I guess I just need to learn the basics or something...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobile mouse:
Hi have you loaded the software that came with your phone ? everything that you should need to connect to your pc is on the disc, i think the only other file you might need is if i am right windows net work, there is some instructions in the connect programe to get your setup up and running, i hope this helps i am new to the x1 aswell and i am still learning, only had the phone 2 weeks but liked it so much i bought another one, so i have one on each major network here in New Zealand, also where else can you buy a phone at a decent price and have, a differnt theme on your phone everyday of the week, these cooks are awsome and create some awsome programmes.

there is tons of information here if you cant find it by searching then ask i am sure that no one will bite your head off as most are good guys/gals, i have not had as much fun with anything since my Amiga days, but now i am showing my age lol but what the hell have fun with it and you will only learn by trying and playing with the phone, you can allways return it back original factory settings and you lose nothing apart from your contacts which will be on your sim card and emails will be lost or you can use SPBackup to backup any thing that is important.

i had better shut up as im rambling lol

If you want to connect your phone to your computer using activesync, start up 'Windows Mobile Device Center'

you can do so by going to start > and typing windows mobile device center. The shortcut will show up by itself.

WinMo is so easy. In fact any OS is easy. Just play with your phone and mess with the settings now and then.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonus:
Sorry I don't think anyone has answered even one of your questions.

If you keep WiFi on, it is as left on and thus consuming battery life as long as the phone is not sleeping (i.e. screen off), and it is the preferred connection used when there is a WiFi signal available. WiFi will never turn on by itself if left on the off position however.

If you turn off the 3G or EDGE data connection, they will reactivate automatically when needed. It doesn't take much battery life to keep the Internet connection running though, and it is necessary if you are pushing email to your device.

As for Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC), Windows Update will not automatically download the software on its own, and I'm sure the majority of us don't remember the file name of WMDC. So did you download the file you are specifying from this portal? http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx

Hi guys, sorry for asking such a noob question but I am new to this and it is my first post so would you guys please answer my question? What's cook room or flash rom and why would anyone want to mod the rom or mess with it? please kindly answer it.
[HD2 General] harolds:
To have the latest and greatest, or one that fits your needs better then what your service provider thinks your needs are.
[HD2 General] Prime_Directive:
No worries man, welcome to the community :) Chances are however you may end up with a few 'Just search!!' answers but I understand there is almost too much info to understand out there but do check out the sticky threads at the top of the HD2 rom development forum as there is a wealth of detail there.

In answer to your question: 'why would anyone want to mod the rom or mess with it? please kindly answer it.'

There are many reasons for doing this, I assume that you come from the 'HTC probably know whats best for their phone as they made it' point of view, this is not always the case.

Let's take a real simple example: There is a limited ammount of space in internal memory and the more you can get the better and some of this space is taken up by pre-installed applications and images that you may never use and some of these can't be removed simply by deleting.

This is where 'cooking' roms comes in: In order to remove those apps you have to create a new OS image (rom) without them in (this is cooking, which is generally performed by experienced people who will publish their roms in the roms forum) and then to be able to get that on your device you need to 'flash' the cooked rom (OS image) onto your device (think of flashing as installing the OS like you would windows from CD on a PC) , and viola you have a new rom on your phone which leaves you more space in internal memory to use for yourself.

There are obviously far more complex reasons for cooking roms (speed improvements, fixes, mods and changes to the UI) but in order to keep this short and simple I've used the above example. If you want to know more check the noob tutorials in the rom forum.

Be careful however, and ensure you read all the information you can search for / find in there as there are some potential pitfalls if you don't do it properly.

Thanks prime! I got it now :]
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ElAguila:
I have decided to look at some of the home replacements instead of running senseUI. I have searched and read about aHome, OpenHome, GDE, DXTop, and PandaHome. After looking I realized that I don't use any of the HTC Widgets other than bookmarks so that is not a loss for me. In many of the posts about the replacements people mentioned lagginess on all of them except GDE. Most of those were older posts so I was wondering from those who are running the most current version of these replacements, do they still lag when moving from screen to screen. I also saw that PandaHome can use the themes and icons that were made for OpenHome or aHome. Can GDE do this as well?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chadillac0000:
GDE is still the best. It has been my everyday Home for about 1 month now and I have no complaints. I have tried Panda and aHome and and both did lag on my Hero. GDE on the other hand is just as quick as SenseUI if not faster.

I do not believe it is possible to use OpenHome or aHome themes with GDE. I just tried a couple and could not select them in GDE (maybe if they were in GDE directory, didn't try that..). There are many nice themes available for GDE though. My favorite is obsidian. Here is a modified version of obsidian I am running on my phone now (icons changed with bettercut).
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johndoehizzle:
Gde's the best,i think...been running it for a couple weeks now.runs smoooooth..n phone looks super slick..ill try gettin screen shots
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] HeroMeng:
TAT home. No contest.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] lv2bll:
^^its not out yet, just vids^^, but Ive used gde and love it, its even faster if you pull/delete rosie when you switch!(and the customization wow)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] fixxxer2008:
thanks for recommending this, i LOVE this program. very lightweight and runs much smoother than sense and is easy on the battery.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] koricua74:
Where did you get the modified obsidian from.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johndoehizzle:
How do i delete rosie?n how much of an improvement will i see?...hook it up with some infoooooo lol.thanks
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Avalaunchmods:
theres no need to delete rosie. go to settings,applications,the find sense ui. click it and go to clear defaults i believe. then push home. now it will ask select what you want to use home or sense ui. check the box that says use this as my default and then press home. now you have cupcake home. then install whichever home app you want (i.e ahome GDE pandahome)

i did this and i hated it. even with themes i just hated the feel of the home. but hey its preference.

hope i helped :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johndoehizzle:
Right on...well when i installed gde.i set it as my default home...i got a task manager n dont see sense or rosie running,so i guess im good ?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Avalaunchmods:
well if you did all i said and set home as default you should be good. you would know if sense were running because its the UI. if you a little tab on the bottom of the screen and if you push home and no dialog comes up your set.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] johndoehizzle:
Aightyy..thanks

I'm a big fan of Slidescreen, it's really simple and provides pretty much everything you want on one screen. It takes away the android feel though imho...

I was going to give you a link but I can't post links since i'm new :( but its slidescreenhome.com if you want to check it out.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] giovannizero:
Slidescreen is cool

Slidescreen is definitely worth trying. I ran it for a couple weeks and really liked it.

As of now I just run the stock 1.6 home.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chadillac0000:
I modified the obsidian theme myself. It is a work in progress. It currently has a completely clear bottom bar (no fade to black) and updated action buttons on the bottom bar. I also changed the color of emerica6541's task bar from white to blue for a more seamless look. I plan to add more blue to GDE and its menus for a more complete look and feel. If I find the time I will also try to add some blue to some of the stock apk's...

Big thanks to emerica for the beautiful task bar and gZ for the original obsidian theme. I only tinker with this stuff and would never have the time/knowledge to pull this off on my own. Thanks to gbhil too... GDE runs incredible on Bare Gumbo 1.5c.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ElAguila:
I had thought of trying Open Home but I will try the GDE first. Thanks for the input.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] fixxxer2008:
after running GDE for awhile i notice how much faster and smoother sense seems to run. :eek:

alright ill edit this post... after trying both gde and sense IMO gde looks better and the battery lasts longer. you basically just have to set gde as your default home and it runs really nice.

I was setting up resigning and after it was all setup I accidentally assigned another app to zip files and now I cant get it to open with the resign option.. I Am on Windows 7.

would be easier if someone had teamviewer and can maybe set it up FOR me?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
Just right click any zip, choose open with, choose the application, then check the box that says always open with.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandenk:
Come on I know someone can answer this question, I went through it on Win7 I just dont remember what I did to fix it since Im back on XP. I think I had to end up removing a registry entry so that the default zip program wasnt set for zip files anymore. Once the zip icon went back to being an "unknown" filetype then I could rerun the registry entry to add the right click re-sign.

This is a huge problem with signing files, in XP it is cake because the default zip app stays default but you still have the option to re-sign when you right click.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Macrophage001:
type in cmd:

java testsign <name of zip>

make sure you are where the zip file is.

This is just an alternative until you get yours fixed and stuff..
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace42:
Why do all of this theres a registry that I have that will just add it for right click. Put this in the directory of the Andro SDK tools

with that app you have to add your friends manually. It can't read your XBL account and pull your friends from the list.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] MrAce87:
search for gsDroid in the Market. i use that. Sign in with your windows ID so no need to add all your friends
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] thisguy10:
can you send messages through that one?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stickerbob:
This is a great app, but does not work if your friends have privacy settings enabled.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stickerbob:
No, you can't send messages through it. It does still work if your friends have privacy settings enabled. gsDroid is by far the best Xbox live app imo.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] nwskier:
don't get gsDroid

I have to say gsDroid may work really well and all but I wouldn't get it! You have to give them your Microsoft sign in information which violates x box rules for a good reason. That person would have access to your account and possible credit card info. No matter how much you may like the app we really don't know the developer and this could be an opportunity for that person to get your info and scam people.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] buffalosolja42:
Is there a developer (I know there is) that can enable readyboost for windows mobile platform it would be a no brainer. Think about it most complaints we hear on the forum is from everyone having some kind of ram issue (similar to PC complaints). If we here on xda were able to create a project that would enable our sd cards to be able to do this that would be a great accomplishment. And would make our devices zippier? Sorry if it sounds dumb, but its 2010 and technology has come a long way, I mean why not we can run android from sd card and it is zippy?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rev3nant:
ReadyBoost is not a RAM extension, it's a low-latency cache to speed up access time to mechanical media. Phones don't have hard drives, they already have flash, so this is totally unneeded.
[Hero CDMA General] scirio:
It's fantastic. It's snappy as all hell. Installed the Full Gumbo 1.5c w/ Sense UI and Sprint apps. Started from a fresh RUU, removed Sprint crapware, pushed voicesearch and mobiledefense in to /system/app, added transparent lockscreen. That's it, it's exactly how I like it. I likethat ghbil leaves all customizations up to me, please don't ever pre-package.

probably my fault...

It's probably no fault of Fresh but I would get non-stop force close errors upon boot every week or so and would have to flash back to old Nandroid backups. I knew it was about to F* up when Sense UI would randomly restart, taking minutes away from valuable android play-time! New Nandroid backups would corrupt (or something) and not do a thing for me, FC errors would be worse, Sense wouldn't start. it was getting annoying, to say the least.

Question: My install is absolute perfection right now, very stable--Can I just update my RA to 1.5.2? Do I need to be aware of anything when doing this? All my problems with Fresh 1.1 seemed to start when I updated the RA to 1.5.2...

Fresh, i still like your rom, i even donated.
[Hero CDMA General] giovannizero:
How does it compare in speed to the 1.6 AOSP rom? I've been using that one for a while despite it's issues, its amazingling fast, plus 1.6 support.

Just install the 152 it will go without any problems....... Yes the Fresh Rom is still FRESH . When he gets done with that Kitchen im sure he has something up the sleeve
[Hero CDMA General] scirio:
Speaking of the itchen.. Why is it that the kitchen will not remove apps i tell it to remove. It says it's successfully removed them, my phone reboots but then their still there. Do i have to remount the /system as read/write?

Anyway I just do it manually, i don't need the kitchen for that.
[Hero CDMA General] robchaos:
How does 1.5c full with setcpu compare to running fresh 1.1 with the gumbo kernal and setcpu? I currently am running the latter. I am a fan of both flipz and gbhil and think they both do spectacular work. I really just don't feel like going through a wipe, flash, and then restoring everything from backups if there is not much difference other then appearance.
[Hero CDMA General] athlet1c:
Yes Remount is the Key to a fix for your problem. At least it works for me
[Hero CDMA General] boomhower:
I have used both and think they are very comparable. IMHO the kernal change makes all the difference. Between the roms the difference is pretty small as long as you have the gumbo kernal on fresh. I changed to the Gumbo ROM mainly so I didn't have sense at all. I tried disabling it on Fresh and was so happy with it gone I wanted it completely gone. I know you can remove it manually but I am to stupid for that, the Gumbo ROM without it was right up my ally.
[Hero CDMA General] david_ag:
Who cares??? They are both great, no need to decide which one is greater.. just let them be.... its a matter of taste.
[Hero CDMA General] ro_bro:
agreed. the gbhil custom kernel and the SetCPU combo is what made my Hero sweet for me.

Hi,

Just thought I would put this on here becasue I have seen a few posts with people having this problem, where ITunes purchases were playing in the incorrect order in the sense player. I tried quite a few programs and none of them seemed to work, media monkey seemed to destroy quite a bit. So I got dBpoweramp music converter and it works a treat. It lets you edit the ID3 tags to whatever you like it has an easy to use interface and finaly my tracks are playing in the right order on sense music player. I did have to convert them to mp3 but that's a better choice to have anyway as it is far more universal than m4a.

Cheers

[G1 General] whiteghetto:
Hello all, you guys have been a huge help in the past and I cannot seem to find a fix for this.

I have used Meebo IM for a very long time and decided to give the stock IM client another try. The issue is that it is not in the application launcher. If I do go to Settings > Manage Applications, IM is listed.

How do I get the IM back?

is there another way to launch it

I am using Cyanogen 4.2.14.1

thanks guys :)
[G1 General] evilkorn:
It was taken out to save space more than a month ago. I think it was around the 15-20mb area.
[G1 General] whiteghetto:
thanks for the info man :)

any recommendations for a stable IM app?

Meebo seems to disconnect if backgrounded for to long
[G1 General] evilkorn:
No problem. I never had problems with meebo honestly, just be sure to set that to ignore if you, like me, use a end all task killer widget.

I just use gtalk and I'm always logged in with that, but still use meebo to check facebook contacts then log out because of the fact it doesn't end and I kept getting messages because people thought I was at the computer.

I decided to open a page containing a graphic change (as well as future applications) fro our HD2.

Here's the result ...

I've made an animated wallpaper for our HTC HD2. I named it Bubbles. Here are some screenshots and video. More wallpapers to come... ;)

Installation guide:

Run bubbles.cab then bubbles_wall.cab

You must run the installation when running different wallpaper than "circles".

After installing the files choose my wallpaper.

Here is a .cab (it replace original Circle wallpaper)

Bit ashamed i know but i just cant view it. Installed the cab, it resets but doesnt appear.

Checked today settings, changed personalise home wallpaper, animated etc but then it reverts the album which is just jpegs, im missing something simple...........anyone point me in the right direction so i can see these bubbles :-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kojotek:

I dont get it. I've uninstaled bubbles. The wallpaper was old (circles). Then instaled once again bubbles... Reset HD2. And bubbles was there. ;) Are you sure you turn it on well?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kojotek:
You have to:

On home screen tap "memu > home wallpaper > animated wallpaper" And there pick bubbles... ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] rexboy:
Thats the prob, ive done just that but only the 3 in built ones are there, no bubbles. The cab automatically installs so i know its not the prob, i know sometimes it must be installed to the phone not storage but its automatic so i cant figure out why i cant see it.
