You need a custom launcher.apk I believe.

Don't know if anyone has created a 3/5 screen Rosie launcher, I guess because there are so many fullscreen widgets.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] booon:
Yea, it's true there are a lot of full screen widgets... but to be honest, I don't use any widgets except for the htc settings widgets for wifi, bluetooth etc.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
If your on a 2.1 rom you can always use espresso rosie that has 5 screens by default.

Default android has 3 so you can just turn sense off on your hero (or install a rom with it removed altogether to get just 3 screens

Yep, saw that message a few times, but figured it was just something new.
[About XDA developers] svetius:
The downtime was my fault. When we first installed the new portal, there were too many database requests simultaneously. We solved the problem by caching the pages.

How do I access the localhost or 127.0.0.1 loopback address on a WM6.5 device?

I want to know if windows mobile 6.5 has the same thing as a desktop machine - does it have a loopback address such as 127.0.0.1???

I know wm6.5 doesnt have a hosts file in the same sense that a windows xp machine does...

If localhost doesnt exist, how do I create a loopback address similar to localhost for my device?

I need to know this so that I can do some dynamical port forwarding using pocketputty.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Heathkit:
I need tools (or someone to do it for me) to create a customised wm6.0 or wm6.1 for our branded P3470 phones.

These phones will need to run TomTom 6.03 and also our own Netdespatcher despatch software. We do not need any other programs. We also want to lock the phone to 2G so that any reconnect attempts in poor coverage are fast. (3G is much slower)

Can anyone help

I can't use the app now and i can't reinstall it. can someone help me?

Have you tried to uninstall it via Active Sync/WM Device Center?

You can also try tools Like SKTools for Uninstall and the last chance you have is make an Hard Reset....but wait....have you tried an Soft-Reset after uninstall TomTom?

Is it possible to check my mails and feeds automatically in stand-by mode?

It is very annoying for me,that i didnt find a solution yet.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Use WifiNoStandby (in my signature) and it will stop your wifi switching off when you're in standby.

Hope it helps :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Zmaz1ng:
it does not work for me :(

i tried several apps but they do not have worked.

another problem is that any notification /e.g sound does not work too.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
The notification sound should be okay - I've never experienced that not working. It's a known issue that the LED doesn't work for emails, but that's the only problem I'm aware of.

What ROM are you using, because I know some custom ROMs have problems with wifi staying on in standby.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Zmaz1ng:
i have tried it ones more and it works!

does continous wlan on drain the battery strong?

using xannytech pandora1.5

the weather doesnt update itself - annoying - how is it by u?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Glad you got it working mate.

Yes, the battery will obviously drain quicker, and it is noticable too, but if you're using a lot of wifi then you have to expect it.

The weather used to only update for me when I went to the weather tab, but since upgrading to a 1.66 based ROM it's been better.

I don't know what the xannytech ROM you're using is based on. If it's a big deal to you to have the weather updated then you'll probably need to try some other ROMs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Zmaz1ng:
do u know a sheduler that works on thd hd2?

this app could activate de-activate wifi :P

another problem is coreplayer..

now wifi is working on stand-by but i cannot listen to radio and power off the screen :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
I don't personally know or use scheduling apps, but I know there plenty out there. Try searching in the themes & apps forum for something like that, or maybe a plain old google.

As for coreplayer not working when the screen's off, as far as I'm aware that's standard functionality and there's nothing you can do about it.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Do you like the light Sensor on Nexus?

I didn't like it.

It's a very good feature, but it works strange.

It is slow in dimming and took already not enough light to the display.

Nexusdisplay is dark dark dark...

Does anybody know, how to tweak this sensor?

Or am I the only one who dislike it very much?
[Nexus One Android Development] daveid:
I just set my brightness manually. Done deal.
[Nexus One Android Development] FormelLMS:
Perfect.

In the Night I'll put my sunglasses on or at a sunny day I take my nexus blind...

Wherefor is the sensor if it don't work proper?

There must be some settings for...
[Nexus One Android Development] erinata:
I think the light sensor works great but it would be even better if we can customize it a little bit. Something like scale up the screen brightness for each level of external light.

Or something like auto lock when it is totally dark (you put it into your pocket?).....but that would cause trouble if you want to use your phone in the theater :p
[Nexus One Android Development] brandenk:
I think the light sensor is terrible. I have tried everything but it still seems very finicky on when it will work properly. I regularly go from low light to sunny outdoors and having the feature would properly would be awesome, especially since it worked fine on my last 2 phones and they arent even close to being a superphone.
[Nexus One Android Development] cyanogen:
Trying to make it transition smoother is something I've been meaning to try. The settings for this are in the source tree at frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml (I override this in my passion vendor overlay). You can tweak the values and rebuild framework-res to try it out.
[Nexus One Android Development] rheza02:
oh cyanogen, You Are GOD!
[Nexus One Android Development] FormelLMS:

I've searched the whole framework.
[Nexus One Android Development] Hero_Over:
ha he meant the source tree for framework provided by google. not in the framework-res inside of the zip of the rom you are using.
[Nexus One Android Development] scote:
two things I noticed about it:

1 It dims and brightens too quick, it should take an average light level over a longer time period

2 Our fluorescent lights in the office at work seem to confuse it, so that could mean that the lens is too focussed and if you hit one of the lights it goes too bright, miss and it goes too dim as you move around and/or the wavelength of the lights confuse it - though this problem may be more bearable if #1 above is fixed.
[Nexus One Android Development] Ssantos6981:
I gave up using the sensor. I use the power strip. the 3 settings work great for me.
[Nexus One Android Development] spyz88:
Yea I mean why should it work? We only paid $530 for it ;/
[Nexus One Android Development] FormelLMS:
Yes, these words are soooo true! They're absolut true.

And: It's not HTCs first device with such a sensor. It's not the first android Handset with such an sensor.

[Nexus One Android Development] markimar:
yeah it doesn't work very well. Maybe sensitivity needs to be lowered somehow
[Nexus One Android Development] rydr1:
I hate to say this because I always talk crap about the iphone, but the iphone does have a better way to auto dim the screen with the sensor.

I thought I had a problem because from the get go I installed a screen protector that lays over the sensor, but now I see that other people have the same issue.

It is funny because I can have the phone in one place, but if I change the angle the screen will dim or brighten.:(
[Nexus One Android Development] king_dani:
the worst thing is , it comes in the way of reading constantly on your phone , and after two to three cycles of dim/bright , you would eventually give up and disable it. disappointing .

but i think the problem is it samples ambient light with long interval , and then average it in a way that is always behind what it should be
[Nexus One Android Development] jonasl:
This has bothered me as well and I've been looking for an easy way to fix it.

It seems that the light sensor (or its driver?) is to sensitive or inaccurate. The reported LUX value can fluctuate a lot in constant surrounding light. There is also the possibility that one waves a hand in front of the sensor which can produce undesired brightness changes etc.

My idea:

PowerManagerService.java (frameworks/base/services/java/com/android/server) listens for light sensor changes with a SensorEventListener. Either directly or after (config_lightSensorWarmupTime) a method called lightSensorChangedLocked is called with the sensor value as parameter. This method sets the brightness.

Here we can add some low pass filtering to the sensor value before calling lightSensorChangedLocked. Maybe a simple average of the last 5 values or so will suffice? Maybe take time into consideration as well. Say average 5 or all values received in the last 20 seconds or so. There sure are room for improvements of my suggestions.

My message is that the issue is perfectly fixable and PowerManagerService.java is the file to fix it in.
[Nexus One Android Development] Ayesuku:
I've been pretty pleased with the ambient light sensor, actually. When it's bright out, it brightens the screen; and when it's dark, it darkens the screen. That's really all it's supposed to do, and it works perfectly fine for me. Not really sure what else you expect from it.
[Nexus One Android Development] SilentMobius:
I'd expect it not to brighten-dim-brighten-dim-brighten in the space of 10 seconds when staying in a moderately uniformally lit room and simply using the phone.

Damping and low pass on the input data would make me very happy
[Nexus One Android Development] GlenH:
Mine never changes rapidly or several times in a short space of time. It seems to work pretty well, although I'd like to change a couple of things:

1) It would be nice to be able to set a different 'base' level. The phone generally keeps things a little on the dim side for my tastes.

2) Why doesn't it dim completely when it's pitch dark? In complete darkness, the screen is still about 20% brightness for some reason.
[Nexus One Android Development] bmcclure937:
I also agree that optimizations on the ambient light sensor would be much appreciated (and hopefully incorporated into future CM builds!)
[Nexus One Android Development] kolyan:
Just started a new thread and now found this....

Anyway, I am also having problems with sensor. It would be great if there was an app for calibration and possible adjustment of useful range. Turning it off doesn't work for me because if I go outside, it takes me like 1-2 minutes to adjust brightness in order to see something.

Ps. I am on my 3rd replacement and on my 1st nexus phone light sensor was going nuts..... dim.....bright.... dim...... in seconds. Its still a problem today but not as much, therefore I believe some sensors are defective.

Other ps. I also noticed that even in 100% dark room auto setting never dims all the way down and screen is too bright which drains battery for nothing.
[Nexus One Android Development] kolobok01:
If i'm not mistaking than iPhone 3GS have light sensor and also brightness calibration bar so you can calibrate what is you preferred brightness to current light riding of light sensor.

IF we can have that it will probably satisfy every one. All you have to do is an off set bar to the light sensor riding.
[Nexus One Android Development] kiowa79:
Yes, please any modder who can implement this
[Nexus One Android Development] zambezy:
It should be easyer to filter the values over the last few seconds and create a script or something that would act as fast bright and slow dim....

if light is insufficient brighten immediately. but if light is dim filter values for few seconds and if needed dim.

That should make it easier on the eyes....
[Sable] TauTau:
Hi,

I have an issue with bluetooth stereo on my 614c (with os 6.1). The sound works well for some time, then I get a dropout, then it's back for a second or so, and then totally off. I have to press play again, but then it just works for like 3 seconds and is gone again. Until I reboot it stays that way.

Anyone experienced that? I tried various player programs, so I think it has to do with bluetooth...
[Sable] box-hw1:
I had that problem occasionally when I used 6.1 21054 v0.9a.

It usually happened after I had been listening for a bit. I would redo the partnership and it would be ok for a few days. It seemed to work better if I turned on my Bluetooth headset first then turned on the Bluetooth on the phone.

I went to 6.5 21867 and that problem has gone away but sometimes the headset syncs but it will not for incoming phone calls.

I have the 614c with a Sonorix C3 Bluetooth Headset. S2P works better for music than WMP for me.
[Sable] TauTau:
I had problems with 6.5 on my last try, wasn't that stable and fast... so I went with 6.1. WMP is the worst, S2P and PocketPlayer are better but still not good. I did a reboot to solve the problem temporary, but after some time (~10-15 minutes) it reoccurs. I can provocate the problem by stopping/playing a few times (from the headset). S2P didn't react on headset controls, is there a trick?

Hey guys!

I hope this is the right subforum to ask this question, and i hope i wasn't to stupid to use the search engine :D

I'm thinking about purchasing a HD2/Leo from UK and i've found some offers of 400 Pounds, but the problem is: These phones are Branded and one offer says "Simlocked"

First of all i'd install a ROM in german (original HTC), would this also disable the branding and the simlock? (i'd say yes, but hey, you're the pro's :D)

While i wrote this i read that it works with a vodafone software branding, but i'd like to have a confirmation from you :)

Best Regards

V.

€dit: Does someone know if Leos have only software brandings or do they already have something like "T-Mobile" on the front?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Ibb1982:
Please please use the "search" function. This question has been asked numerous times.

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
simlock is only unlockable by getting a code from either provider or from various unlock websites.(varied results) Currently there are no free ways to do this.

To test if your rom is also locked, try putting your serial into the HTC website, if it fails then the rom is locked to the provider.

However, simlock does not prevent you using different roms. Find your original rom as a backup, then use HSPL to allow you to flash whatever rom you like via activesync.

Have a read of this and this and this too.

Start your search for your original rom here
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Veidi:
hey :)

thanks for your replies

@Ibb, sorry, i guess i didn't search hard enough, i found something after that but i was short in time.

@samsa:

thank you too :) but i already read that this won't disable the simlock :( which is important to me due i'm not a t-mobile user. But i already looked up at ebay.co.uk, there are very nice offers too :)

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] tom42332:
Follow the steps exactly as outlined here:

http :// wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_MT3G/Magic_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod

Please note, you have a perfect SPL, use google or the forum search function to find out more about it. This essentially means you need to create a goldcard (which is actually really easy)

In the above link (cyanogen's update guide) you basically only need to downgrade you phone to 1.5 using the COC10 build of sappimg.nbh (a link to this file is posted in cyanogen's guide), then flash cyanogen's recovery image using flashrec, the reboot into recovery mode and flash DRC83_base_defanged.zip and update-cm-4.2.x-signed.zip.

I have the same specs as you and it worked quite well. The only part that doesn't work is Amon_Ra's recovery image, because of the perfect SPL I think.

Good luck
