App to turn screen into a mirror !? O_o

Just get a mirror type screen protector film and it will be great :) My wife has it on her device!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] espaleena:
Yup very true.

Pros: Viewable contents when display is on & becomes a mirror when it's off.

Cons: Hard to see under sun & fingerprints nightmare.

Hey Guys,

Anyone know anywhere that sells leather holsters (the kinds that clip to your belt) that don't use magnetic flaps? I'm kinda paranoid about magnets and damaging the phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] thexder1:
There is nothing inside the phone that would be damaged by a magnet unless the magnet is thousands of times stronger than the ones used in the pouches. There is no reason to be paranoid about it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] Anartic:
I thought that magnets could screw up the compass on the phone.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] raduque:
I've been using a magnetic-clasp leather holster since I got the phone in November with no issues.

[HD2 General] Fana7ic:
I hope there havent been threads for this kind of problem, I searched but couldnt find anything.

I recently flashed "Duttys_Leo_Sense_2.5_5.2.21889.5.0.87_1.66_Multi_Lang_V1.5_GER" onto my HD2.

after some rearranging of startmenu shortcuts I realized I couldnt add shortcuts to the sense home tab anymore, so I turned my HD2 off and on on again (first time after flash and yes I did hardreset after the flash)

To my horror the device would hang at the first splash screen where the 3 lines of red text are displayed.

After several attempts to boot it up with taking out the battery and putting it back in, my HD2 now suddenly did a hardreset when I was just turning it on the normal way.

This has ever since happened every time the HD2 is completely shut down.

I dont think its a bad rom since I havent heard anything bad about it and I dont know what else could be the problem.

Help would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance :D
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
haveyou flashed a few roms? because roms are all slightly different lengths sometimes there will be files left over when a new rom is flashed, which can cause instability in the new flash.

go have a read of the mtty thread in rom development. basically a way to format the rom space before flashing.
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
I have copied my phone number onto my sim from my old phone and imported to contact.

Irrittatingly the HD2 sees the names backwards and only searches for the "first" name [there are lots of "name_mobile" and hence now I have to search for "mobile"]

Anyway to select the order of names or will i have to edit about 180 contacts?:(
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
there is a cab that when run reverses the names. I'll try and attach it but if I cant, look for "contact changer first last"

if you add new contacts after using it don't forget to select display first last out they will be wrong.(course you can run the changer prog again to fix it)

this is not my handiwork but sadly I can't remember who to credit.
[HD2 General] wigwam12:
Mates Mate.

Useful to have

Sadly I don't think that will fix it.

I looked at a few contacts. They were imported to my [still waiting to be active!] sim from my current phone (SE K800i) and then from sim to HD2

Sadly "John Smith" as a saved mobile number is identified in Contacts as:

Forename - blank

Surname Smith; John/2 [I assume the /2 is a code assigned by the SE to differentiate between mobile/home/work/business category symbols].

It is a PITA that I might have to edit all of them by hand.

They are all nicely ordered in Outlook in a subfolder from Contacts Called "Mobile Contacts" but I can't get ActiveSynch to synch with anything but the main contacts folder [The SE Software did allow this easily]

Hello everyone I would like to thank everyone for your hard work...

Second I would like to apologize if I'm posting in the wrong section..

Now I would like to ask and sorry if this has been discussed before..

I would like to change the Me option that you get in the message tread... Like when you speak with someone it says Me and your message, I would like to have a custom name....

Here is a picture that show what I mean.... how you get Me: and the name of the other person you are texting!!

I would appreciate any answer...

Thanks....

it sounds like a silly request, and im not sure if it has been answered already elsewhere, but i too would like to know if this is possible, most of my touch pro 2 is customized as far as carrier name and so on, but that "me" is still there lol would like to customize this as well.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] sharkie405:
Interesting question. I guess you stumped everyone. It'd be interesting to know though.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Da_G:
This is likely a resource in one of the .mui's, a simple ResourceID = "Me"

So you could use reshacker or similar to edit it, assuming it is in a .mui (which it should be)

Hi All

Apologies if this has been answered, I did a search on here and google on this, found lots of complaints on it but no answers!

Ear piece volume is extremely loud, only way to turn it down is to activate the loudspeaker/speaker phone, then switch it off again.

Is there a fix for this - if there is I can't see one anywhere?

Thanks! :-)
[HD2 General] Latz:
So no fix for this then? I have had a look through the registry but couldn't find anything that looked like default call volume unless I missed it?
[HD2 General] samiedema:
Volume buttons

Just use the volume buttons on the left side.
[HD2 General] Latz:
That's not the solution - The ear piece is extremely loud even on the quietest setting using the volume buttons but if you activate the loudspeaker then switch back to the ear piece the volume on the ear piece is a lot quieter for some strange reason. By doing that the volume becomes bearable.

Have you never heard of this problem? Quite a few people are experiencing this.
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
Latz,

As far as I am aware there is no solution at the moment.

right, i know i'm gonna get hammered for this, but its gone midnight, and all this android stuff may as well be in Swahili to me.

my wife has a Hero and shes having the (seemingly) common problem of not getting text messages (at all, or getting them late)

so from the searches we have done, orange will only swap the phone out. instead of that i thought it might be a good idea to install the latest orange update.

so basically, what do i need to do??

i'm assuming its just backup her data and install the rom, but can someone please confirm that for me.

shes got no interest (at the moment) in installing a custom rom, so i'm hoping i dont need to do all the fun stuff to do with rooting it and Amon Ra.

for backing her data up, whats the best software to use (and is it free?)

cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cymru:
Search the market, there are loads of free backup programs on there. Mybackup is a goodone with a 30day trial.

Back things up (to SD card), update the ROM by pluggin into the PC and clicking on the .exe you downloaded from the HTC site.

Restore data by redownloading the previously chosen backup software and choosing restore.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msc125:
'sprite backup' is good, you can find it on the market

i use it when i switch roms, it backs up call logs, contacts, sms/ mms, bookmarks, settings etc...

Hi all! I've just acquired a X2 last week in Singapore & i'm struggling to comprehend it. I've also printed out the online manual which helped me abit. Other than that, I'm really stuck.. Here are the following questions.

1. Does it support Chinese characters? I hope it does because I do need to sms Chinese characters

2. Am I able to change my sms alert tone? I cant find it & the default tone is nearly inaudible. I have to check once a while.

3. Does it have a battery indicator? Probably my favorite theme is Tilewave but theres no indicator at the top right. I have to change to the theme where the background shows the ocean.

4, I realized that the ringtones are soft. My previous phone, G900's ringtone was very loud

5. Is there a short cut key where I can customize my most used programs?

6. I cannot store or edit my contacts. It kept appearing SIM full when my SIM is on 3/5 full.

Thanks for your help.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zack306:
+1 me too (>_<)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flamingsamurai:
1. Have no idea.

2. Yeah you can change the tone. Its in the settings, in sound and notfications and then in notifications open the drop menu saying event and check out 'messaging:text message' and change your tone. You can add new ones by putting them in the windows folder, might have to be .wav

3. Not sure, it might be cos you put the clock on so it won't show the battery, on some 6.5s they only have one at a time. You can change it by deselecting Display clock in taskbar in the clocks and alarms menu.

4. Thats not a question, but other than turning in up, you can just change to a louder ringtone. Or use some hacks like audiopara, but not sure if it works on X2.

Not sure about the other two questions cos im a bit lazy, but for sure there are answers
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothadave:
do you have the spb panel on your X2?? i use that to custome the layout and have all my favorite programs where i want them. its free so should already be on your phone. if it isnt then check that you have the latest firmware. you can download more panels from the panel screen options.

with the spb layout theres a nice large green battery icon showing the exact charge of the battery :) an alternative is to download "ArielBattery" a free utility that sits in top left of the screen. it shows the percentage of the battery at all times. you just copy the .exe into the startup folder on your phone and thats that. you can get it here

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-ariel-battery-monitor-v1-6-2.html

with the spb panel you can extensively customize all the screens with themes and theres a built in contacts program too. should cover all your needs.

Thanks for all your replies. I've contacted Sony Ericsson Singapore

He also taught me a small trick. I realized the batt drains very quickly. So he taught to take out the batt & charge the 'internal batt' for about an hr or 2. Then insert the batt & give it a full charge. That should fix the problem.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothadave:
um theres an internal battery?? lol.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostsouls:
Thats what the customer service, a so called 'internal batt'. Im not sure though. I just send in my hp yesterday for an update firmware, Chinese characters installation.

If it still does not do the magic for me, I'll wait till x10 is launched, I'll get that.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothadave:
i think its unlikely it has an internal battery.... doesnt really make sense. if it did have one then its probably just for keeping basic information like time and date etc. shouldnt affect the power of the main battery. worth a try though, if it improves battery life then let us know
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostsouls:
Alright...

But my mind seems to lean towards X10. Kinds regretted getting the X2. But I'll keep my fingers crossed at the moment.

I believe If I were to get X10, X2's trade-in value is still there
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anothadave:

[Imagio General] mlevin77:
I recently had a Pioneer aftermarket stereo in my car and it was extremely convenient: hitting the phone button on the stereo immediately launched voice command through the radio's sound system, so that I could dial by voice and never have to take the phone out of my pocket, unlock it, etc. My car was totaled in a crash and in the new vehicle there's a separate BT system which doesn't do any of this - it pairs and calls come through it, but it won't activate voice dial; it can only dial the numbers stored in its own (local, limited) memory and won't let me give the phone other commands. So I'm thinking of replacing it, but I need to know: what feature am I looking for that enables the radio to connect to the phone and launch voice command without me having to touch the phone at all? What determines this? How do I know which stereo will activate VoiceCommand and which will only dial?

Thanks,

Mike
[Imagio General] laserbeme:
I thought it was the vendor/radio that determines what the buttons do. Same problem here, buttons don't always do what I want them to!
[Imagio General] mlevin77:
seems reasonable, but what feature is it? When trying to pick the right vendor/radio, what am I looking for specifically? The salesmen know nothing about BlueTooth and VoiceCommand... What BT signal/message is being sent to the phone to activate ViceCommand?

Mike
[Imagio General] laserbeme:
The Voicecommand signal. :) I think your radio company decides which buttons have what functionality. If your phone doesn't have features that the radio has or vice versa, then it doens't work. The newest rom posted has, based on what I've read and seen, slightly improved BT functionality. (Although music by BT sucks, argh.)
