[HD2 General] Father Ted:
Quoted for truthery!

I was a Nokia man for the last 20 years, and all of them where just a phone!

For the first time, I am using windows mobile, and it has opened a whole new can of fun.

Having said that, I still keep my N85 in my pocket for day to day use with a mirror sim card in the HD2, cause on almost a daily basis, I backup and then hard reset my HD2 to keep it clean and pretty with all the .cabs and fantastic applications, icons and work from people like Cookie.

Truthfully, I have more fun with this 'phone', than I have had with my Dell 'dogs-bollox' XPS laptop & desktop computers.

Bugger WM7...... it's of no consequence.

nokia n900 will get the megoo software after its release ,look at the difference in support between htc and nokiaand apple ,that difference is what make the big difference in the sales of each corporation
[HD2 General] wieg86:
I don't even know if I want a upgrade...even when it's free!

WP7 sounds like a big &%R$
[HD2 General] MonnieRock:
Exactly ;)
[HD2 General] wocko1:
Well for those people who bought HD2s, including myself, there is still hope of getting WP7S on the Leo, as apparently the OS is still WinCE based, and some bright spark manages to cook a rom. Heck even the old HTC Wizard was able to run 6.5.

But if all else fails, there's still Android. Heck if they can get it working on the Blackstone, I couldn't see why not you can get running on the Leo.

But also remember that it isn't the 15th of March yet, and M$ hasn't officially said the HD2 would get WP7S, yet different "spokespeople" said either "It's up to the OEMs" and also "No, the HD2 isn't getting WP7S".

Just my $0.02

[Nexus One General] level5music:
Hey all,

I'm having a hell of a time keeping my N1 running during any intensive reads/writes on the memory card. I'm currently running MoDaCo's ERE27 Root with the himem kernel. The device was not resetting before it was rooted. I'm using a 16GB Class 2 SDHC from Sandisk. Currently I don't have another SD to test it with. Until I can get one, what's the consensus on this? Bad root? Bad SD? Bad device?
[Nexus One General] paratox:
what do you mean with intensive reads/writes? i have the same sd card (which is labeled as class 2 and is fast like class 6 ). i have transfered a 2gb file from pc to N1 without a problem.
[Nexus One General] level5music:
Say for instance, if I've taken alot of new pics, when the Gallery writes alot of new thumbnails, that has crashed the phone, though not always. Copying large caches of files on or off the device always crashes the phone. Using Doubletwist to read the N1's music library has crashed the phone. Scanning the SD card for errors in Windows has crashed the phone (and as a matter of fact, scanning will ALWAYS crash the phone).
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
I had the same problem with that same configuration. I flashed cyanogens rom and the problem went away.

Since rumor is around that WP7S wont support OEM stuff.... who would prefer SENSE UI+WM6.5:D against WP7S

although i am not a fan of sense, i wish we will have the ability for custom ui's on wp7, albeit thats a longshot..

I prefer the WP7 UI... but that's about the only thing I prefer in WP7 vs. WM6.5/Android.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Kloc:
I like the UI for WP7 and I like sense as well. The reason we need sense is because the the current look of WM sucks but it won't anymore so I can say bye bye to Sense without a problem.

[Windows Phone 7 General] hoss_n2:
wp7 is better ,i tkink
[Windows Phone 7 General] xma1e:
It's way too early to tell. If I watch a video of Sense UI and the the WP7s video then WP7s would win.

What everyone has to remember is Sense sits on top of the OS and has some limitations due to this. WP7s has been built from the ground up with the OS.

I really don't get why people call Windows Mobile a bad OS. Okay, mS provide a very basic OS, but you just need to look at what HTC, SPB and the up and coming UI's being developed on this site have done to see how truely flexible an OS WM6.6 is.
[Windows Phone 7 General] xma1e:
...oh, and I'm so getting a WP7s phone when it's released. Anything is better than an iSPUD.
[Windows Phone 7 General] AngryNil:
Sense creates lag, and isn't OS-wide.

WP7S looks more professional.
[Windows Phone 7 General] toxicstone:
Sense UI can be tweaked not to lag so much (i hope)

Win7 aint that great, i just want to have the win7 in my pone for games and program support but SENSE UI forever :D

My last phone was a nokia 6210 Navigator. It had a setting that spoke the name of the person calling. I thought it was pretty good as I didnt need to look at my phone to see who was calling me. Is there anything like this for the HD2??

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Avinitlarge:
Ive just tried Microsoft Voice Command 1.6. The voice is naff. All I want it to do is say the callers name, Nothing else. Microsoft Voice Command 1.6 say "Call from xxx at home from Vodafone" or something along those lines, I couldn't quite make all of it out. Its bobar!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fards:
voice command hasn't worked properly for a while. once upon a time it used trip announce incoming caller..theres a guy trying to get it working in dev and hacking.check out his thread for more details.

one option is to record the most common callers you have as a voice tag, mp3 or whatever, then assign each one as a ringtone., lot ofwork though..
[G1 General] Giggity:
So I was cooking away in the kitchen and knocked my G1 off the edge of the work surface and it fell screen down on the floor. The force was enough to pop the back case off.

When I picked it up the screen was broken. Not physically cracked but the image was absolutely screwed. It now is just black with vertical lines, usually white but sometimes with colour. I have a suspicion that perhaps a cable connecting the screen has maybe come loose.

Can anyone with hardware knowledge of the G1 confirm this?

In short, I am asking if anyone knows how I can fix this!!

I had insurance, but unfortunately I cancelled a few months before this incident, not to mention T-Mobile Fonesafe won't replace broken G1s with G1s anymore, only G2s. Seeing as I prefer a hardware keyboard, I'd prefer to fix my G1.

Please help people!
[G1 General] goldenarmZ:
It does sound like a dislodged ribbon cable.. but the only way you're gonna find out for sure is to open 'er up. Here's the service manual:

http://mikechannon.net/PDF Manuals/HTC Dream SM (A04).pdf

Good luck. These smartphones can be a nightmare to work on.. Especially for a fat-handed spack like me.
[G1 General] Giggity:
Excellent link, thank you very much.

It certainly looks like a mammoth task to disassemble the G1.

Referring to the service manual you posted, on page 32, is the second image down with caption "Disconnect the display FPC" the potentially offending cable that I need to look at?

I should say now I have no previous experience in disassembling (or reassembling) mobile phones :D
[G1 General] Giggity:
Further reading confirms my inital thoughts. Page 91, point 4.

Looks like im off to Maplin to buy a Phillips 0 head screwdriver.
[G1 General] goldenarmZ:
You're gonna need a torx as well.. can't remember which number but it should say in the service manual.

Let us know if you get it fixed. :cool:
[G1 General] lbcoder:
It doesn't actually confirm anything.

You'll note points 1 and 3....

I also suggest that you try out point 2 a few times before ripping the thing apart....
[G1 General] Giggity:
Judging my your response I'm guessing you didn't look at the manual.

By point 4. I was referring to the symptom: "Unusual Vertical / Horizontal lines or partial display." Which is exactly what is wrong with my phone.

The first point of call as listed before is to "Check the connection of LCD FPC". Seeing as I dropped my phone it is very likely that it has become disconnected.

I very much doubt re-flashing or cold booting will help. My phone has had no defects until the incident.

Not attempted to fix it yet. I'm going to wait until I get a few hours free. :rolleyes:
[Touch Viva, MDA Basic General] shreesh30:
is it possible to remove the contact image that shows during a call?

i changed my phones orientation to landscape but the image covers the name and number of the caller and i dont know who's calling me.

removing the image assosiation from the contact does not help as the shadow pic is still there
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] th3asianator:
alright guys, i left my phone on and hooked up last night, but when i picked it up this morning, it keeps on popping up that i have a data call failure code 11, and then under that it says ppp connection error. its worked fine untill just last night. any one gotta fix?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] sqlmotoq:
You should not need a fix, just reboot the phone to verify if it still exist. Verizon was having a US wide outage that was effecting most users across the US. I called them this morning on the same issue and that is what the tech agent told me. She said that they knew of the issue and was working it and that it should be resolved within a couple of hours. To recycle my phone in about 2 hours and the issue should be gone. I did and I have not seen the error since and I am now receiving email again. hope this helps you :);)

I just read somewhere on the internet (and now experienced) that the Kaiser/TyTn II goes into a sort of hibernation mode while during a call or, if left for a time interval. The hibernation can only be awakened if you slide out the keyboard or press the "Power Off" button once.

Can you please tell me as of how I may solve this problem?. I am a new user so would appreciate any help :) (I did search the forum but couldn't find anything)

ROM Version: 3.28.161.1 WWE

OS: Windows 6.1

Regards
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
What is the problem, your asking for help but you didn't outline a problem to help with? The screen turns off on the phone all the time and yes as you said, you just have to tap the power button or slide out the keyboard to get the screen back.

There is no problem with that.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] D3solat0r:
Shouldnt the screen reactivate if I press some other button like the Answer call button or the end call button?.

Or is this supposed to be like this?. But also it shouldnt close in on me like that while during a call because of which I cannot end the call or perform any actions while during a call unless I press the "Power Off" button.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
The phone has some buttons on the front of it, you can press the red one to hang up on someone. No need to use the screen, this isn't the iPhone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] D3solat0r:
I see, thanks alot for the help :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] karthikramaiah:
To reactivate the screen you have only 2 options either press the power off button or slide the screen. This mandatory designed by HTC

But during your call you can use Advanced Config and disable sleep during call. this will keep the phone active during conversation
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] denco7:
Use Advanced Config and disable sleep during call.

Here is the other half of your issue.............

" Hey, everytime I am on a call, my cheek hits the screen and starts a program or hangs up. Whenever I put it to sleep during a call, my face touches the screen during the call and the phone wakes again and starts programs. Is there any way I can make he phone hibernate during a call so this doesn't happen ? "

I would say we are running about 50-50 on these complaints.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drjulittle:
hi i needed help with apps to sd card i recently rooted my g1 to cm 4.2.14.1. i was reading that it does it automatically thru this mod if you have a partitioned sd card which i do but i notice everytime i download a new app my internal phone storage goes down. i was wondering if that was normal or if its only suppose to go down on the partition? im really noob to this who rooting process so please help!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
Applications not only store information in the apk, but also other places, /data/data/ for instance.

Delete the partition then see how much space applications use if you want to compare the difference. It could also be browser cache and other things that store information on the phone memory.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arich0908:
Cyanmod rom will automatically do apps2sd if it see a new partition EXT2

You have to do that on your own.

The easiest way I found to do that is use amon_ra's recovery 1.2.3 instead of Cyans

It has an option in the recover screen to partition and add EXT2 .

Now im new to this I dont know how to increase the default of value of XXXmb in ext 2 .

So if some one can chime in and tell me in the simplest way how to change how big the ext2 partition is that would be great.

OP I hope I helped you if you need more help PM me.

Edit I figured it out.

Just use linux to partition ext2/3 and define how much space your sd2apps will use on ext2 partition.
[HD2 General] craigpyro:
I've just installed and tried this.

http://www.opera.com/mobile/download/

As with the previous Beta, the menus look great, are very finger friendly and the start page is fantastic and customisable.

However I am now unable to turn to landscape. I can't find a setting for this but I'm sure in the previous beta I was able to do this without tweaking.

The graphics look great and it now supposedly supports Flash. Youtube was ok, though I still feel the resolution is far from good enough. But I was unable to play music in myspace flashplayers or view videos on Kontraband.

The final major downside for me is that they still haven't sorted pinch to zoom on this browser.

it's getting better but still more work to be done. I think I'm going to roll back to the earlier version.
[HD2 General] englefield:
Until pinch zoom is implemented Opera 10 on the HD2 is irrelevent without a stylus. There are some things you need to zoom close into to finger press or use the fine tip of a stylus for. The currently limited zoom of 10 makes this impossible on some pages for people with large fingers.
[HD2 General] Dr.Sid:
Yes .. some pages just need a bit of zoom in, some just a bit of zoom out. It seems however free zoom is not part of Opera 10 at all.
[HD2 General] gags9999:
But majority of the sites do work well. The text is fit properly into the window without any need for horizontal scrolling. And flash support is a definite plus. Even I would like to use pinch to zoom, but still feel that the new opera is a good all purpose browser which doesn't makes me shift to my iphone for web browsing. And lastly, if you don't already know, you can apply Pinch to Zoom tweak in BsB for Opera!. It works well for me.
[HD2 General] MAMeingast:
Yeah, I even use BsB Tweaks to enable pinch to zoom for Opera Mini 5 Beta 2... It does work, BUT it is not NATIVE pinch to zoom: It will enlarge the whole app (including Menus etc) and not just the page. But for those situations where you need to tap a check box that is far too small to hit without zooming in, even the non native pinch to zoom works great!
[HD2 General] gags9999:
Yes, the tweak does take care of some zoom tuning necessary for the tasks not adequately covered by the tap zoom. I myself use tap zoom and use pinch zoom only for fine adjustments. Best of both world's with flash thrown in the bargain!
[HD2 General] craigpyro:
I actually want to go back to the previous beta. I'm using the bsb tweak to zoom but I don't find it works that well to be honest. very fiddly and double-tap zooming seems better.
[HD2 General] ephestione:
uhm, in this thread you can find a comfortably repacked version of opera mobile 10b3 with promptless cab and included flash lite... and I'm using it instead dof the bundled 9.7 since a week or so ;)
[HD2 General] jigners:
does the Beta 3 repackaged with flash, support pinch and zoom?
[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:
Am I missing something?

I have the same standard Opera installed from day one (i.e preinstalled)

and can pinch zoom the webpage, very well in fact.

and no, i havent installed any tweaks cab's or modded the registry.
[HD2 General] barty22:
that is opera 9.7, not opera 10
[HD2 General] barty22:
no it does not
[HD2 General] aethelbert:
That's Opera 9.7. We're talking about Opera 10 beta 3, a new release in development from Opera. HTC will need to take Opera 10 (when it is released) and add their pinch-zooming functionality to it before (and if they choose to) update the HD2 with it.

Ah ok.

Q1. Should I upgrade the the SPL even if the version is already 1.17.0000 ???

Is there is any higher version of SPL? (because I've read through all the thread and I couldn't find any higher version of it...)

Q2. I still couldn't understand what do you guys meant by "Flashing" ROM and what is it for? Does it meant for us to have extra spaces? and by the way does the term "flash" means that we force the system to show the newly created ROM?

Q3. What is OLIPRO/OREFKOV Method for? Is it for upgrading the SPL/ checking the SPL or we use it to flash the ROM?

I read it here and (hxxp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=472169) many times (at least 10 times) but still confused!

Q4. OK now... this is the biggest question of all....

I want to upgrade the OS from WM 6.0 Professional to WM 6.5 or higher and speed up the processor by overclocking it... what do I do first???

PLEASE ADVISE & HELP!!!!
