[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dai323:
There is a lot of information on this subject. To sum it up, if your into playing a lot of 3d games, I wouldn't recommend using the hack. Your essentially getting the extra 10mb from the phones part of the GPU that is used for 3d gaming. If you do the hack, you will notice a big difference in speed and appearance when running 3d games, which is why your better off not using it.

It doesn't effect emulator agmes, as my nes, snes and genesis emulators run fine, and I do use the hack. ( I cant comment on the other emulators, as these are the only 3 that I can keep running at full speed).

Hope that helps a bit :)

Hi,

is it possible to decrease the sensitivity of wiping right and left? I mean if you wipe from the middle to the right or to the left until the screen moves to the next page...

Normally these are only some millimeters. If you are selecting mails in inbox I often swipe to sms and all my selected mails are deselected again.

I think there have to be some kind of registry key for that...

Regards

Frank
[HD2 General] Archer:
Sorry, but you're basically saying that because you can't use something correctly then you want it to change to suit you??

Just give it a bit of time and you'll get used to it. TouchFLO has been around for a couple of years now (at least - it may have been round for longer!) and I've NEVER heard anyone say anything that even resembles what you're saying.

I'm not having a go - honestly, and I certainly don't want to start any bad vibes here, but you are talking about user error. Sorry mate, but it's that simple.

Persevere mate. Just get used to how it functions and you'll be fine. ;)
[HD2 General] LaroCroft:
Sorry too, but what stupid talking! Would you say that any tweaks in this forum is because users are too stupid to you their devices as designed and all of these changes you can do with WM are senseless?

This is not my first WM device and even not the first one with Sense or TF3D.

What about the discussion about screen sensitivity. They are all stupid using their devices, right?

So...

any constructive advices hear???
[HD2 General] Archer:
I told you I wasn't having a go, so don't get so defensive. Don't call me stupid either. You don't know me or anything about me. Learn to use your phone properly and stop wasting people's time.
[HD2 General] Sc4Freak:
You're kidding, right? My software and devices should conform to my lifestyle, I shouldn't have to conform to it. I purchase devices and software because they fit my needs, not because the software forces me to change my habits. This is the very cornerstone of consumer choice, and I find it hard to believe that you'd honestly think otherwise.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Archer:
I'm in the midst of writing an app and using the most excellent Manila SDK supplied by michyprima. I only have 1 problem, and it's nothing to do with the afore-mentioned SDK. Every app that I build has the keyboard button on the bottom menu bar, but I've seen plenty of apps that don't have it, so it can obviously be turned off.

How do I do that?

I'm developing in C#, with .Net 3.5 and using VS2008.

Thanks in advance :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] KonAitor:
Hey guys,

Last night I disabled the Internet Tab on Sense2.1 and now I cannot use Sense. It just tries to start, and never does. I have done soft resets and togled homescreen items.

Any suggestions? I would rather not have to hard reset.

Using NRGz Sense 2.1 ROM.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] KonAitor:
Can someone please help? Is there a way to re-enable the Internet tab or get this to work the way it is?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] needmoney:
Have you done the HardReset after flashing rom?

I would re-download the rom and flash again.
[HD2 General] dogans:
For the last few hours, the phone is no longer vibrating when pressing keys, when receiving calls/messages or when it boots.

Tried several soft resets but haven't tried a hard reset yet.

Not sure if a hard reset will help since the phone won't even vibrate at boot.

I'm using the 1.66 official ROM.

And no, I haven't dropped it or anything like that :)

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks
[HD2 General] Archer:
If it doesn't vibrate at boot then you've got a hardware problem. There's no way to stop that happening with software. The rest of the usual vibrates can be turned off with software, but not that one.

I hope it's under warranty, or that you can live without it, because they're the only options you've got.
[HD2 General] dogans:
Thanks for your reply.

Thankfully it's under warranty, so I'll be sending it to repair =/
[HD2 General] Archer:
Good luck mate :)

Hi,

I think I've bricked my hero :mad:

I've flash my phone with the kagudroid but it loop forever a boot. So I tryed to put a new recovery image and then I lost flashrec. Did I definitly brick my hero ?

Thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cymru:
So can you boot into the recovery image or not?

If you can, do a wipe and install the Kagudroid rom again.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noway64:
I have flashed the recovery mode with the image found in the thread "[Recovery] [08-Feb-2010] RA-hero-v1.5.3.1"

but now when I try to do a flash I have a message saying that my update.zip is not signed.

any ideas ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noway64:
ok so I've found a solution !

I've upgraded in 2.73.61. My phone is working again.

Now I just have to use a goldcard to get root access (in fact I've made a mistake and put back the old recevery mode ...).

thanks for all.

I accidentally deleted the shortcuts from the start menu for my contacts and for the phone dialer. How do i get them back or where do i point new shorcuts to?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] cmstackar:
go to file explorer > windows > then find contacts(its 52B) and copy it into startmenu > programs. Not sure where the phone dialer is, get back to you on that :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Callumpy:
So it should just be a file named contacts? Cause I cant see one :confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Callumpy:
Ok, found the contacts one in \Windows\AppButtons\

no idea where the phone dialer is. :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] fighter7139:

How can I find out if I have Hard SPL version 2 installed onto my TP2? Thanks in advance folks.
[HD2 General] Z900:
Hi all,

When I choose [people] then [Add favorite], in which map and file(s) does the HD2 put this stuff ? (XannyTech ROM V1.3)
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
It doesnt put it in a file, it adds meta data to the 'notes' field of that contact.

For example, if you have outlook on your PC, add someone as a favourite, then open their contact card on the PC and in teh notes field you will see something like

<HTCData><!-- Please do not modify -->

<Favorite>actionid:CallWork</Favorite>

</HTCData>

If that person is a favourite and also a facebook contact you will see

<HTCData><!-- Please do not modify -->

<Favorite>actionid:CallWork</Favorite>

<Facebook>id:#########/friendof:#########</Facebook>

</HTCData>

That is why favourites and facebook linked people persist after hard reset, so long as they are synced.
[HD2 General] Z900:
Thanks Sam !

So can I extract and restore this favorite data (incl. photo) from a stored SPB

backup ?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
You dont even need to extract that data. So long as you have backed up the contact list, as soon as you restore it you should find the favourite people tabs automatically filled, and as soon as you connect the 'me' contact card with your facebook account, all your contacts that are linked to facebook contacts will get teh facebook contact image and access to the albums and such like.

Oh one thing I missed out, the favourites are added to a contact category of 'HTC favourite'

I'm not sure exactly how it knows which contact to put on which shortcut, but ive flashed new roms four or five times, with another two or three hard resets, and each time as soon as i sync outlook the people favourite shortcuts are there again.
[HD2 General] Z900:
OK fixed with 1 more little step for each favorite ..then all is allright !

Thanks !

Is it time to bring back the original flip clock that seemed to slow down the phone, but should now be ok. I thought it was quite cool, and demonstrated a nice animated widget.

Has anyone got the original HTC Flip(ping) clock, and know where it can be gotten from?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code72:
I second this :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rones:
I'm in!

Or do i just wait untill 2.1?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
Come on, please. Somebody must have a copy of the original Flip clock that come out on the hero. Please someone tell me how to get a copy.

I tried extracting the HTCClock apk from the original roms zip from t-mobile, but it didn't work.

Any other suggestions?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sulten:
Do a search for Beautiful Widgets in the market, it may not be free but i think its what you are looking for

google it
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
Just checked it out, so two points.

1. Why would I pay for something which is free on hero, where these widgets are to make other phones look like hero.

2. the flip clock is not animated on Beautiful widgets:

taken from:http://www.androidtapp.com/beautiful-widgets/

1 - "... Android home screen widgets resemble the impressive UI of the HTC Sense available on the HTC Hero phone."

2 - "The clock/weather widget is static and doesn’t have the card flip and weather scene animations like the HTC Sense UI but works well. Added more widgets to this set will make it even more sweet!"

So thanks for trying, appreciated. It's the animated original flip clock I am asking about.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
and now you're expecting us to do the magic and make it work. because nobody has ever asked for this before. did you have the thought that it just DOESN'T WORK?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
It didn't work because perhaps, I extracted it wrongly or I had extracted the wrong set of files. I am not a dev on the hero, so I wouldn't knowhow to remove the current HTC clock and widget and how to install a new one into system memory. All I was asking for was someone who perhaps has got the original flip clock left on their phone (someone who hasn't updated their phone since they got it when it came out) to provide a the widget files.

There must be a way of it working (with the correct files, once they are found) because it did work before.

Look, if it is too much for you then I apologise, I was just asking for the widget.

P.S., when you say "us" in your quote above - do you speak for the whole community?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
the process is basically right, there is no magic in copying apk's from a to b. it is just that the whole sense environment goes deep into android. afaik there is still no completely "sense-less" rom available yet that fully works. on top of that sense is from htc and therefore closed source.

did you do a search? you are not the first one to ask for this, several people have tried to get the flip clock back. if it was that trivial it had been done by now. and no, there is no "must" for it to work, with the given resources.

if you want to make sure you get the original widget get it from an official update file here in the stickies, or from an old update.zip which you can find in the stickies at modaco. not sure why someone else should do the job for you?

when i say "us" i mean everybody that feels adressed...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
OK cool, I'll try to investigate it further.

Sorry I asked now, I just thought someone may already know the process of extracting the correct flip clock files so they could readily be adb pushed into the phine ti the right place. Other people in this thread also expressed an interest in attaining the files. So sorry that I asked in the Q&A area.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
just ask everything again and again, that's totally cool. it were different if that information was already here, let alone several times. and sure, other people making the same mistake does make it better, absolutely. and i really shouldn't tell you that it is most probably not doable, since i havn't tried it myself including deodexing the file to give it a chance to work at all.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
probably none.

ontopic: i guess i was to quick and everybody else too lazy, i have a working flip clock on mcr3.1 :D now i need to figure out how and why...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
That's really cool, I did try (so no, not too lazy) and failed :( thinking that I might be doing something wrong. That's the only reason I asked the initial question, 'cos I was sure that someone who knew what they were doing or were more experienced might already have it or know how to get it.

I'm glad you've got it. Any chance of sharing once you've figured out how you did it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
well, my trying involved a little more than just copying it from another rom... edit: and by everybody else i mean those people around here that know how to do this, stuff like deodexing etc. not actually EVERYBODY.

for the moment i am having trouble using my phone at all, won't register to network for some reason. i think it is not a good idea to use airplane mode when rebooting and restoring backups frequently, so for now i am repairing...

you can try the attached apk, delete HtcClockWidget.* from /system/app, then push the attached apk and reboot (probably best to do it in recovery). when i tried this yesterday i got errors, today i flashed the whole rom again (no wipe) and it worked... no idea why actually.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
Tried what you said, but the clock said it couldn't be installed when I removed the HtcClockWidget.* and replaced it with the one you gave (using adb push).

So I then tried reinstalling the rom, and now all I have is the non-animated flip clock again.

Can you clarify the steps you took to get the animated one installed under modaco 3.1? I just can't get the animated one to work? Thanks again for trying - there must be something that I'm doing wrong.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
try this one, install through recovery as usual. there seems to be a difference in using update.zip and adb push, even when pushing in recovery. with this update.zip i can install and use it, but don't get any mobile network connection at all, neither voice nor data. i just arrived at home, i will look into this later again, but tbh i am not too optimistic.

to revert just flash the mcr rom over it, or make a nandroid backup before. make that backup anyway.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bad4ss:
EXCELLENT! it worked!

0) Nandroid Backup.

1) I backed up with adb pull both HtcClockWidget.odex and HtcClockWidget.apk from /system/app to my pc.

2) Then I deleted them both from /system/app.

3) I put your update zip onto my SD root directory.

4) Then with amonra I updated with your zip.

5) Restarted, then chose the widget from the add menu on homescreen. Et voila I got the animated flip clock. AWESOME!

THANKS A MILLION Kendong2, hope you get it working ok yours.

Thankfully, XDA-developers is the biggest WinMo forum in the world. that being said, we also have an immense effect on how the WinMo world looks like.

Opera proved themselves many times bringing us great browsers.

we have some problems with opera 10 not being a perfect browser right?

let's collect all improvement ideas/changes/concepts which come to mind and i'm pretty much certain they'll do whatever they can to give us what we want.

Just post what's on your mind and i'll collect it and put it here (I'd appreciate it if you posted the suggestion itself in a different color).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] barty22:
Nice initiative, and if perhaps we can't get Opera to make some changes to version 10, perhaps it will stimulate programmers at xda to write custom hacks for the new browser series.

1) Zoom slider like in 9.5 and 9.7 browsers. With this obviously comes pinch to zoom support on the HD2.

2) New options: enable text reflow, enable text reflow only when zoomed in, disable text reflow

3) Snapping to columns of text when doing vertical scrolling.

4) Option to display the windows taskbar when browsing, except in fullscreen mode.

5) Show downloading speed for file downloads.

6) Option to display a www homepage as the start page, instead of the 9 quick links.

7) Some implementation of the visual back feature like in recent 9.7 builds. It has to work smoother and prettier than in those builds though.

8) Option to FORCE sites to ALWAYS go to the full desktop version. No more user agent hacking.

9) Better rendering of images (images often appear in low quality even though turbo mode is off).

10) Better javascript and ajax support (for example it doesn't render Gmail with all features like chat and themes enabled).

11) Option to open new tabs in the background.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] muyoso:
Opening tabs in the background is a must. I rage when I am browsing and trying to open a group of news articles i want to read and I have to keep hitting buttons to get back to the main page to let the things i want to read load in the background.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dande:
Text select, copy, & paste is there but it simply does not work properly.

Image quality even in turbo mode should be better.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aussiebum:
I've posted directly in the Opera Mobile 10 beta 2 blog post before, but I guess they don't really read it -_-...

Anyways (besides the other suggestions mentioned):

1) Full HTML 5 support so we can use the mobile Google Buzz and Mail webpages that iPhone and Android users can enjoy on their webkit browsers.

2) Automatic zoom-to-fit webpage (or a #$(*&# zoom slider). It's annoying having mobile webpages rendered and not filling the entire screen.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] benko286:
1.) Zoom does not work in landscape correctly

2.) Zoom slider like in 9.5 and 9.7 browsers. With this obviously comes pinch to zoom support on the HD2.

4.) Fix text input problem, it lag's like hell when I am typing smth!
