[Hero CDMA General] rontonomo:
i just went into the sprint and asked about this issue.i have had dust under my screen since i first got it in october. the rep at the store said sprint in no way would fix or replace the phone. they said that they were not responsible for design defects and i would have to pay 100 dollars threw asurion.
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
see i paid full price... $479 + tax so yeah im pissed.
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
he's full of it. call sprint and explain, they will take care of you. by friday ill have a new phone. they can't charge you as it's not damage or user error. it's a defect, a well known one.
[Hero CDMA General] justinisyoung:
do you mean to call sprint customer care, or like a sprint repair store? i called a sprint repair store, and they said that its not a manufacturing defect. i say that's stupid.
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
call customer care, that's what i did. i then went to the repair center where they tried to get the dust out. i then called again and explained what the tech told me and they are shipping me out a new one by friday. the bottom line is sprint, yes i said sprint "becuase they branded their names on it" and htc needs to fix this asap.
[Hero CDMA General] rogerbean101:
ive been thru 3 Sprint heros in 4 months lol but not due to this problem
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
after 2 id go with another phone despite loving the hero. i mean android is ported to so many other phones now anyways. if android was ported to the pre or pixi id jump ship in a heartbeat.
[Hero CDMA General] theresthatguy:
I got my hero the day it was officially available at best buy - zero dust problems. Whatch'all whining about?

Pics or it didn't happen.
[Hero CDMA General] Sporkman:
i dont have the dust but i do have a paint finish that chipped peeled of my end button .. think i could get a replacement for that

see the pic i attached
[Hero CDMA General] crunchybutternut:
Here's a Pic for you..

Not my phone, but I have already replaced mine once because of this and my new one also has dust under the screen.
[Hero CDMA General] zeropants:
I have a little dust under mine too, not enough to bother with at this point but if it gets worse I'll take it in.
[Hero CDMA General] nutswillkillme:
I bought the hero the first weekend it came out. Got dust super bad in both bottom corners, and as anyone would who had a hero the first 2 weeks, I treated it like a new born baby. Took it back to get number 2, dust after 2 days... Once again, treated like a baby. 3rd hero now, now I treat it like complete crap after realizing it is crap, oddly enough, no dust for a long time, got just a smidgen of dust now. I love the hero, but I have given up on attempting to keep the dust out, I'm sprint premier anyways so I'm sure I'll get a new phone soon enough. If it gets too bad I'll just take it apart and clean it myself (there's a pretty nice tutorial in the linked last dust thread, too lazy to link myself, search for it).

If it bothers you that much, call sprint, complain... If that doesn't work, call again and talk to someone else, eventually you'll get someone who will give you your way. Sprint reps are incredibly inconsistent. I was on the phone for a few hours when my gfs brand new palm pixi (POS btw) wouldn't activate and eventually was told that the phone must be defective and to take it back. I called back again like an hour later and got someone else who had me squared away in minutes... not really related to the dust issue, but I've seen many people on these threads going through the same thing with any phone issue. One person may say your screwed and the next person will have a new phone shipping to you in a matter of minutes.

If you get the right person on the phone they will do just about anything for you. It's pretty rediculous.
[Hero CDMA General] katmandu421:
+1, my experience with Sprint exactly. And remember the secret words.."customer retention". I'm serious, you actually have to say that to get to that department. That's the "get things done" department.

[HD2 General] Espentf:
Whenever I try to type an sms in landscape, the device is really unresponsive. It takes around 0.5 seconds for the letters to appear and if you try to type fast the animation of the keyboard lags as well. When you stop typing all the letters typed within the last 2 seconds just comes "crashing down" at the same time.

This problem is not happening while the device is in portrait mode.

I've tried to upgrade to the latest rom, but that didn't fix it either. Anyone else who's experiencing the same problem? Is there a solution to this?
[HD2 General] aiwama:
I did experience lagging (both when typing in landscape and in portrait mode). I then read somewhere here that if I deleted as many SMS as possible the problem would go away. A better solution was to keep any exchange of SMS with any given person under the 100 mark. It worked for me! No lagging any longer! Very important SMS are kept in the clouds at "My Phone". The rest are regularly deleted :D
[HD2 General] Espentf:
The thing is, I have 15sms messages on the phone now (and plain text emails), and it still lags in landscape mode. The lag is still there even if I've deleted all the messages on the phone, which is kinda strange.

Any other ideas anyone?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
No help from me, sorry, but +1 for very laggy typing in landscape, different roms, different keyboards, always the same.
[HD2 General] Espentf:
This is indeed strange. I don't see any reason that it should lag when you type in landscape mode. Just hope some brilliant-brained guy has had the same problem and fixed it ^^
[HD2 General] myth1001:
I don't know if it will work, but you can try tip #91 in this thread.
[HD2 General] Espentf:
Thanks, I'll try it when I come home :) I'll reply here if it fixes the problem.
[HD2 General] Espentf:
I can confirm that the tweak works perfect :)

No lag what so ever now. Thanks!
[HD2 General] flunik:
why can't HTC do the update, to load only last 50 messages ? so if you want to see more, you just press "see more". friend told that it's the way its implemented in iphone. since when i just want to send an sms, and i get 800 mesages loaded, this really sux. :(
[HD2 General] Espentf:
Agree! Pointless to load the sms messages from 1 month ago.

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Fraqq:
Hello everyone. First sry for my crapy english:D

Now to my question or my problem.

It is possible to run the Eclair lockscreen

on the Hero?

I might be shure this works with MetaMorph?

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=589315 There is written "make sure you already have Stericsons lockscreen installed"

But i cant find this to download or am i blind?:D:D:D

the thing is i dont want to use LockBot or something else becaus this is crap...

Isnt it possible to replace the HtcLockScreen.apk/odex from system/app?

or is the lockscreen the framework/-res and so on?

would be nice if someone could help a poor guy like me:p:p

Thanks a lot

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] truckerkenw:
Ok Folks;

I have called verizon a few times on this and I also tried looking thru the threads to a possible solution but I haven't found one.

Here's the deal, I have a HTC touch pro 2 from verizon. I am a canadian trucker but I have a USA mailing address and I am in USA 80% on the time. The phone has never been flashed, it running on the software they provided when I activated the phone. Now while I am in the USA the phone works fine...its when I cross the border into Canada (Ontario), I keep getting this Your Device is unable to determine what country you are in. It then brings up the county info screen which I usually tell it to get settings. It never solved problem...I called verizon, they said to turn off assisted dialing...I did that...still happening. I don't have data connection turned on as I won't use the phone for data in canada...I use it for phone and when at home in my apt, I hook it to my wifi...The settings on the phone (network) is selected for Global....I have also tried CDMA or GSM and both ways it seems to still happen....anybody out there happen to have a solution?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] OndraSter:
Hey developers,

Believe me, I tried searching quite a lot but couldn't find an answer, never tried this kind of developing ever.

Let's say that my point is to disable part of screen - eg below 400px will not work - my app will catch those mouse events and stop them.

I tried speaking with Chainfire on IRC but he went for gaming or so and he offered me injecting dll's. I'm not sure if that would be the best idea since I'd prefer to do it on background rather than loading it with all apps.

I was thinking another few minutes and how about loading it as driver or some kind of touchscreen filter and running inside device.exe or any other kernel process (or just as background process, doesn't matter those few kB in memory).

Thanks for any push in any way of doing this, believe me, you won't regret the result :). OndraSter
[Windows Mobile Software Development] VisualD:
Not sure this is possible with the Win32 HWnd stuff, you can catch and handle Window Messages only within the Window said messages are posted to. Never seen a way to do it system wide. Would probably involve replacing some fairly fundamental components. Same sort of thing we are looking at to get multi-touch working correctly on the HD2.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] OndraSter:
I heard someone got it working with keyboard, but mouse not because of lack LL_MOUSE stuff etc
[Windows Mobile Software Development] ramdroid77:
maybe develop a driver, like i.e. Touch response does.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] OndraSter:
Yep that was one of two things that came to my mind - driver or service...

But I have no idea where to start with it though...
[HD2 General] NickPDX:
My sister really needs a new phone and is with T-mob USA. I was telling her to get the HD2 when it comes out, and she really likes the phone but she doesn't want to pay for the added internet plan. When I had my Shadow (1st gen) I was able to use the t-mobile lower internet plan (t-zones?) and using proxy server info I was able to use the internet almost 100% normal. There were only a few apps that were odd.

What are the chances that since this is still a WinMo phone it will have that ability? Is this something that can be figured out before the phone comes out? Also, if it did work, would it access 3g data?

Thanks for any help/info.

Nick
[HD2 General] ZuluWarrior:
When the HD2 launches it will have a required data pack just like all other windows, blackberry's and android devices currently do. If a discount is recieved on the device then the data pack (minimum $25/month) is required, paying full retail price is the only way not to have it. T-zones is no longer offered by itself for $5.99/month unless your plan is a grandfathered plan that supports it but would only be able to be used if the phone was purchased at retail.
[HD2 General] adamo86:
i use tmobile in uk if the proxy box is ticked my mail dosent load.
[HD2 General] atlp99:
T-Mobile USA now uses the device IMEI for data plans

The proxy trick does not work anymore on Tmobile USA, they now use the phone's IMEI number to verify that the phone is on the correct data package. It works for about 24 hours now then when you try and access the internet you are sent to a screen to add the correct data package.
[HD2 General] EA1300:
Proxy internet for HD2 on T-Mobile

I have T-mobile with the $5.99 T-Zones. I used it on the DASH and am now using it on a Touch VIVA. If I buy the HD2 from T-Mobile with no contract are they still going to force me to get a data plan or will my T-Zones stop working. I want to keep my T-Zones and may have to get an ulocked phone.:confused:
[HD2 General] jfarhat:
I'm currently with AT&T and about to switch to T-mobile when the HD2 comes out. When I spoke to the T-mobile rep., (trying to get him to set me up on the cheap data plans instead) He told me T-mobile can tell what phone you are using and know if it is on the correct plan. He also stated that if the phone is unlocked then you can trick their systems into letting you keep your old plan. Now again, I dont know if this is true or not, I am about to switch...hopefully this month, I'll find out then.

With AT&T, I have an old data plan (unlimited internet, 1500 text, 200 MMS) and I pay $19.95/month. they have never made me change my data plan and I am using the Tilt2. If you go through the priemer business website to upgrade your phone, they dont give you the $50 discount and you get to keep your data plan unchanged....all other channels force the upgrade with an updated data plan. Again, the only way around that is to buy your phone from someone else, unlocked, or have warranty dept. swap out your phone for a different model. My nephew has the $10 data plan and is now using the Tilt2 on it via warranty swapping out his phone for a different model (the Tilt2).

I know on the AT&T service you do get the 3g speeds, so I assume it will be the same for T-Mobile (but then again assuming may not be the best way to go). Hope that helped
[HD2 General] NickPDX:
I am pretty certain that my sister has a grandfathered in 5.99 T-zones package too. I am hoping that she can get it and use this way. The email not loading problem that adamo mentioned though doesn't sound good. Do the other internet based things work ok?
[HD2 General] jfarhat:
from what I was told, everything should work correctly and at the correct speed, as long as the phone is unlocked. The cell phone service providers don't seem to really offer different speeds at different rate plans like the cable internet companies do.
[HD2 General] NickPDX:
I had not seen your message from earlier ... we posted at the exact same time. Thanks though for your input. I will let her know. It seems like it is worth a try. Worst case scenario, she has a great phone but she has to use Wifi to check her mail and such.
[HD2 General] adamo86:

I've been using this application to real good success on a older version of darth's 2.0 rom, updated to flipz installed it and doesn't seem to work anymore.

Any ideas on how we can fix this or how i can make Google voice call backs originate from my phone so I don't have to run to a pc to make a call on wifi?

For some reason perhaps its just the browser but I can't get my phone to call it's self through the google voice web app, and the official android don't support callbacks to sip phones and the only other-wisely good application for this GV is no long supported and is also broken.

http://evancharlton.com/projects/gv/

But it's just really a pain in the ass to have to start every phone call from my computer, other than going back to Darth's rom any suggestions this seems like something that would be useful
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] muppetman462:
Hi, my suggestion is if you have google voice, then set up the sipgate/sipsorcery iggy and use SIPdroid or Fring to make your phone calls. Here's a link to the guide

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] honda931:
I'm confused. Why wouldn't you just use the official Google Voice app? It already automatically routes all your outgoing calls through google voice. Are you trying to route your call through data so you arent using your minutes or something?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Jwahlg:
Thanks, I was trying earlier but couldn't get sipgate to reg with sipsorcery

Turns out i was using the wrong credentials from sipgate. And doing anything to long on a public computer is a pain in the rear anyways, I only use linux at home and didn't feel like going through certain channels that shall not be named to get a copy of xp just so i can use silverlight

CM 5.0.4.1

Trackball colors by ChainsDD (2/25 ver. before update to CM 5.0.4.1)

Succession Mod for trackball notifications by metalhead8816 (applied after CM5.0.4.1)

When I get a missed call, it will flash light blue or cyan. But what happens is that the bright light blue LED flashes, and then a dim version flashes. It almost seems like another notification, but it does it whenever a missed call notification is fired. I have not seen any LED at low brightness, but this one looks like 25%.

I'm guessing the succession mod? Can someone else test this?
[Nexus One General] pwvandeursen:
strange, it never occurred to me (or it never happened before) but was reading the trackball thread and saw your remark. this evening by chance I saw the dim blue light as well (only a mail led was fired) by the way I haven't yet installed the notifs in succession file. I'm running cyanogen, and installed the trackball color notif 1.0 b3
