[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] angusmcintyre:
Hi Guys,

Does anyone know of a way to keep old emails locally under WM6.5.x. ?

On both my POP3 and M$ Exchange accounts, once new mails have been downloaded by the PC and removed from the server, the next sync with the HD2 results in an empty email inbox. Is there any way that you can save, say the last x days worth of old emails locally on the HD2? This would result in an inbox that always contained the last x days of mail. Each sync will delete mails that are more than x days old and add new ones recieved today.

[HD2 General] Neong72:
Hi, I need help with my HD2, cause I have two main problems:

1) HD2 sees my router and connect to it (with some difficulty) but then it's impossible to open any web page

2) I think I configured an account (POP3) but I don't receive any mail
[HD2 General] Neong72:
Really, no one that can simply tell me the right options to have WiFi and POP3 works?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
it's not that we don't wasn't to help, but there isn't much to work with. I mean before you can fix your pop mail I think you need tutti find out why you can't surf over wifi.

does the phone do anything on wifi? browse? weather? msn?
[HD2 General] paulking:
has anyone managed to get this working yet? i subscribed yesterday thinking it would lead me to an app download or somthing but all it gave me was the sky+ recording app thing

dont want to be peying for somthing i can use :confused:

iphone has a dedicated app for it which i would have thought would of been available for any phone capable of watching sky on it...want it working before tomorrow so i can watch the match :(
[HD2 General] paulking:
bump, no one got sky?
[HD2 General] baileyjacks:
What network are you on?

I'm on T-mobile and go to the web 'n' walk home page, from there click on the TV and Video tab and there is a link to Sky Sports TV. I found I have to be on 3G not Wifi to connect to it. Then go into the subscriptions and choose what you want.

If you are not on T-mobile then I assume you go into your network own mobile homepage.

Cheers.
[HD2 General] paulking:
imon vodafone and for some reason they see HD2 users and business customers instead of personal so you can't use vodafone live, i was hoping someone had found a way around this...cant wait for my contract to end, hate vodafone :mad:
[HD2 General] paulking:
ok just came across this info, now subscribed and able to get on vodawank live, maybe this could be put in the hints and tips thread?

To get onto live, you need to change your settings. Here is a quick explanation I found from the admin of the forum. If your in a rush to get onto live then skip this part =)

What's an APN?

APN stands for Access Point Name, and is perhaps best thought of as a ‘gate’ or ‘portal’ through to reaching the internet. Different APN’s have different properties, and so there are benefits and features to using them appropriately.

When attempting to connect to an internet-based service (say, the browser, or email), most phones will normally prompt the user with APN options. It’s important that you connect through the right one, otherwise the service might not even work. Our quick guide will explain what all the different APNs are, and the ones that you need to go through to make the correct connection.

For example, a user’s APN list might resemble in part the following:

1 – Contract Internet

2 – Contract WAP

3 – PAYT Internet

4 – PAYT WAP

Contract Internet

APN: Internet

Username: web

Password: web

This is our default Contract customer APN for general internet use, and should be the default for any non-Vodafone or Live! related service (such as Google Maps, for an example).

What it’s used for: Go through this portal if you want to browse the web, connect to or send email from your mobile's built-in email inbox.

What it’s not used for: You cannot connect to Vodafone Live! via this APN (use 'Contract WAP', below)

Contract WAP

APN: wap.vodafone.co.uk

Username: wap

Password: wap

This is our default Contract customer APN for Vodafone Live! and Live! based services.

What it’s used for: Go through this portal if you want to browse Vodafone Live!, or make use of any Vodafone Live! services, such as Mobile TV.

What it’s not used for: You cannot access or send email from device-based email clients (such as Outlook Mobile, or a generic Messages inbox), nor will non-Vodafone internet-based applications work via this APN. For this please use the 'Contract Internet' APN

End Quote

Now the how to:

1.Go to start-> settings -> wireless controls

2.tap menu in the bottom right corner, then connections

3.At the bottom of the screen should be two tabs, Tasks and Advanced. Tap Advanced.

4.You should have "Select which networks are automatically used" appear. tap the box Select Networks

5. "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:" Contract WAP, tap ok

6.Go to the web browser of your choice. and go to http://live.vodafone.com - if you don't get the vodafone live site, you've done something wrong.

7. If you want TV on your HD2, you'll need to have 3G or H at the top of the screen otherwise you'll just get the message saying your not in the area. I just subscribed to sky sports =)

Just a thought, I think there may be a downside to leaving it on contract WAP so I guess it would be wise to return it to Contract internet when possible.

Hope this helps =)
[HD2 General] paulking:
sorry to drag this up again but a word of warning to anyone thinking about getting sky mob tv, the quality is disgustingly bad, best ive had so far is 92kbs, considering tvcatchup.com is pretty much a perfect picture i think its a bit of a ripp off!

after all the *****ing i did LOL
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
Here it is! Pancake! Based off Gumbo, it's one of the fastest Cupcake ROM's for the Sprint Hero! It includes some must-have applications, like wifi-tether and a file manager, and has apps2sd enabled. In order for APPS2SD to work, you must of formatted your SDcard to fat32 + ext2 + swap. To do this, simply boot into recovery, copy all the files you want to keep to your PC, because this

WILL FORMAT YOUR SD CARD!

and then press 'Part SD: fat32+ext2+swap', copy your files back onto the SD card, and reboot. This boot might take longer than usual, while it copies all your applications to your SD card. Enjoy the ROM!

Thanks to:

This ROM is for the CDMA Hero users, so if you want something, let me know, and I'll try my best to put it in. :)

So that I can provide faster support with this ROM, I set up a IRC channel for this ROM.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] johndoehizzle:
waiting for the non-sense version lol.thanks dude..

ps:what kernel is this running?or will i have to flash one?..not a problem to me.im just wondering.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] VinceOB:
Curious, what did you optimize in Sense?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
It's running gumbo kernel, and don't worry, the non-sense version is coming very soon, as in 20 minutes, if that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] johndoehizzle:
dope.thanks..will i still need SetCPU for this?...sorry for the dumbass questions lol.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
I don't think so, it's REALLY fast, trust me. By the way, uploading the non-sense version :).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
It's zipaligned and I compressed some stuff.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
Added non-sense version

Added green espresso version
[Hero CDMA Android Development] johndoehizzle:
downloading.will update in a few.should i do a wipe or flash over current rom (fresh 1.1)?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
Well, I would test it out without a wipe, but if it gives you errors, wipe. Let me know how it goes. As always, let me know if you want anything, I'll be very happy to change stuff or add things for you.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] johndoehizzle:
didnt do a wipe.so far so good.uninstalled setcpu as well.uninstalled the stock sprint app's too...not im looking for a transparent lock screen and transparent notification slide down menu thing,just like the ones in fresh..will keep updating.

EDIT:i tried like 3 times to delete the stock app's through fresh's kitchen,phone reboots but app's still installed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] calypso78:
nice. im gonna give this a try.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] wtphoto:
I hqve found that the fresh kitchen really only works for fresh app uninstall, it doesnt work on modaco either.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] showbo:
So, fully understanding I should know this, but what is the difference between having SenseUI and not?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
If you can't delete stuff, tell me what you want removed. I'll be happy to make you a custom version :).
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
Basically, if you want the pretty stock home look, you want SenseUI. If you want android's stock home screen, get the nosense package. You could pretty much try both and see how you like each one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Fird:
Could we drop all the sprint apps except sprint navigation? Believe it or not I use that on occasion because so far I haven't found a google maps app for 1.5 with TTS. Also if you wanted to integrate 'swype lite' as the keyboard, that'd be cool too, otherwise I'll just install that later.

I'll be flashing this for the first time later tonight, MoDaCo + Gumbo's kernel has been working for me, but I'm feeling the urge to switch it up again, and anything faster is good!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] bikcmp:
I'll make you a custom version. So, you want swype lite and all sprint apps removed but navigation. Want senseui?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] showbo:
So, you said to uninstall SetCPU, or keep it?

[HD2 General] NewMagic:
Hi,

I have a strange problem syncing audio to my HD2 (and for that mater an old ETEN X800 as well - so I think its a WM6.x problem in general). My PC music library is stored in lossless wma format. I use Media Player 12 under Win7 x64 to sync to the HD2 having it transcode to 128k wma.

Once synced to the HD2, Media Player on the HD2 will not play the files. It gives the error "Cannot perform the requested action". The original files are not DRM they were ripped from my own CDs. I have an old SD card with the same library of music ripped to the same format which was synced using Vista under WMP11 on an older phone and these will play!

If I turn off the "Convert files" option in WMP12 and sync an MP3 file it plays - so its only wma files that are effected.

It seems there is some compatibility issue between WMP12 transcoded wma files and Windows Mobile ? I know there are other tools around to sync music, I'd just like to keep all syncing to the one process (email, nusic etc)

Regs

Mark
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
you will probably get better results if you move the music to the sd card directly, not using sync.
[HD2 General] NewMagic:
If I use a third-party converter to convert the same file to 128k wma and then copy it manually it plays fine, so it's definitely an issue with WMP12 syncing.

Copying the "broken" wma back to a PC it will play though in WMP12 but its tags in explorer are missing!

First good news about WinMo after a while. I do hope that Windows Phone Classic (if the rumor is true) will be interesting for HTC and other manufacturers, because all I really need is 1 GHz+ device with big screen, hardware keyboard and of course WinMo 6.5.:) And about that Starter edition, I'm really not interested.:)

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] MasterTP:
The thread's title "wp7s starter will me stripped down 6.5" doesn't make any sense. There's no WP7 starter...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] vangrieg:
Exactly. They say "Windows Phone Starter", not "Windows Phone 7 Series Starter". So it's 7, Classic and Starter.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] circleofomega:
to avoid the confusin furter...wil we have W7P on X1????o dont care what fancy name they may give it....Will the cool Zune interface work on my X1??????
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] vangrieg:
No, it won't.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] elyl:
This makes no sense unless there's going to be some kind of compatibility between 6.5 apps and 7 apps.

So far, what we've heard is there's no compatibility, so I can't understand why Microsoft would sell 2 incompatible products designed for the same purpose.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] pilgrim011:
They don't have a same purpose - WP7 is for kids and gamers.

WP Classic would be targeted (if the rumor is true) to power users and enterprise market.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] vangrieg:
Wrong. 6.x will be targeted for the low-spec cheap devices until decent hardware becomes available in lower price segments. It will also go to "emerging markets" (whatever that means) in a stripped down cheap version to fill the same niche where possible. And finally, it'll be left to live for a while to accomodate needs of enterprises who have whatever WM-based IT solutions deployed to give them time to redesign and redeploy new ones. MS Business Division head specifically mentioned in a recent interview that they have invested more than ever into WP7S, so they obviously count on it in their market as well. It would be ridiculous to bet on 6.x in medium term as it's losing market share in the enterprise segment as well.

it was because i had ext4
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tyrnight:
this is because Modaco has ext4 enabled and Gumbo does not.. so hence it locked up..

EXT4 is NOT widely used yet. Highly experimental...

At the risk of asking a stupid question, whats the difference between ext2, 3, and 4? I think I'm using 3. I havent gotten around to bringing one of my comps here from my other house to start running linux, so I haven't adjusted to the OS yet.

Hey there,

Any cab I try to install from any unknown publisher won't install anymore on my HTC WM 6.5 ROM..

I can install SPB Mobile shell, but if I want to install themes and widgets for it for example, or if I want to install S2U2, I can't..

I say OK when they ask me if I still want to install it (because its from an unknown publisher) It says: Installation of '......' failed.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] ElCondor:
Hi,

You should be able to disable it by installing this cab (it's called sdkcerts).

[General Questions and Answers] PhysicalMagic:
The problem is, I can't install that cab either.. :(
[General Questions and Answers] ElCondor:
Hmm weird.

I'm afraid I can't help you any further, I suggest you flash another ROM or perform a hard-reset.

Alright guys. Been working on this for a while, and I finally think it's worth showing.

Note: This is a

preview

, it's alpha and can be unstable at times.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouQ0cwvA_iU

This is a homescreen/lockscreen app I made, based off of the Windows Phone 7 Series Metro UI.

So far, you can:

Set Phone, Text, Outlook, and People to a certain app

See upcoming appointments on lock screen

See information on live tiles

Launch programs

etc.

Instructions

1) Download installer at bottom of post.

2) Copy to device and install

3) Run wp7s.exe from start menu

4) To access settings, double tap on right side of screen

5) To lock, tap the top bar (near clock)

Known issues

* Animations are sluggish at times.

* Problems with kinetic scrolling

* Unlock can unlock in any direction, not just up.

* ...need more feedback

Requirements

VGA or WVGA device, QVGA is possible but looks bad.

Recommended: Snapdragon processor or at least a very new phone.

Live tiles

The live tiles seen are web pages that auto-update with JavaScript.

In the video/screenshot, one is the current weather in New York,

the second one is the current trending Twitter topics,

and the last two are random changing numbers.

To make your own, just design a HTML or PHP file, use JavaScript to auto refresh, upload it somewhere, and set it to one in the settings!

Also, here are some examples I've made:

Random Number (for testing) - http://jaxbot.com/livetiles/random.php

Top 4 trending topics - http://jaxbot.com/livetiles/twitter.php

Weather - http://jaxbot.com/livetiles/weather.php?zipcode=[ZIPCODE]

Upcoming features

More customization (background, etc)

Smoother animations/scrolling

Ability to rearrange icons

Social networking integration
