[Desire General] mazzarin:
HTC does sell an ATT friendly HD2, it costs nearly double the USTM price though, and you have to import it from Australia ;)

I gotta agree with you McHale. I bought a N1, was underwhelmed, flashed Desire ROM on there, was much better but still seemed unpolished, returned and went back to my HD2.
[Desire General] McHale:
If the HD2 from Australia had 1900 on it, I'd have it already. I'm not afraid to spend money on a phone. But 1900 is in a few places where I travel and just don't want to be without it.

One thing that I need to toss out there is with WinMo, I cooked my own ROMS. I took the cleanest HTC ROM I could find, stripped out everything I didn't use and flashed it. Any apps that were updatable (Facebook for example) got removed. It was as clean as you could get. At least with the Nexus One, it ships the same type of ROM I prefer so I don't have to cook one. It's not bad, it's just not super awesome like I was lead to believe.

Now tack on that with Android's document viewer I can't edit MS files like Word or Excel and I hate how the Exchange and subfolders are handled and Windows Mobile wins easily. I planned on keeping it regardless of whether I liked it or not so I had my name and email address engraved on it. It has a few cool things like the GPS Navigator and when I get completely bored with it, I'll start tearing the OS apart and seeing what I can really do with it. I'm back using my Touch Pro as my primary phone and couldn't be happier...

[Desire General] Ed-UK:
MS Office compatibility

I don't know if anyone can answer this, but does the Desire come with an app than can edit MS Office files, specifically Word, Excel and possibly Powerpoint?

If not is something like OpenOffice available for Android than can open AND EDIT these files?

Hope this is the right place for this post.

Cheers, Ed

I have been a "Windows Fan Boy" for many years and didn't think I would ever move to another platform. I was looking for something to replace my HTC Diamond but apart from the HD2 there aren't many windows phones around. I decided to give the HTC Hero a go but really thought that I would be flogging it on eBay after a couple of months (or days). Well I am flogging it on eBay but only because I want the HTC Desire and I have just ordered it on T-Mobile.

I can't think of a single area in which windows mobile is better than Android!

Maybe I should abandon Windows 7 and look at Linux!

I just hope my Windows friends don't read this. I doubt they will as they are as blinkered as I was.

Hi,

Found that HD2 can be powered on by pressing any key. Can it be set only by the power button (right button)?

thanks
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Nope. Many threads about that, no solution found.
[HD2 General] Coyote.Max:
Well, my HD2 can be powered only by Power Button. Didn't know it was an issue with that.

You're lucky man ;-)

I'm still looking to solve this issue...

Yes it does...much faster making photo capture much more stable...you notice it more when taking pics in dark environment.

Hi.

First of all, sorry for my english but I'm portuguese. I have a TMN Silverbelt, a custom phone made by ZTE for the portuguese company TMN. This is the link of the store: tinyurl.com/yaagpb4

This phone comes with WM 6.5.3 Professional. I don't like the Windows Mobile, so I was wondering if it's possible to install Android on this phone. It has a Qualcomm 7225 ARM1136EJ-S at 528 Mhz and 256MB Flash + 256MB RAM. Is this possible? And if so, what software do I need to install or how do I do it?

Thanks and keep the good job ;D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ady:
From the title, I thought that it was about a sexual position. Nope.

You may be able to put a custom built rom on SOME of the windows mobile phones with A LOT of effort and hacking. The phone functions won't work, nor will the wifi, bluetooth or touch screen since there won't be any drivers available for them.

So for all the practical purposes, No, you can't. Just buy an android phone instead if you like it.

For all the non practical purposes, yes but then again, you wouldn't be asking this question if you were looking for non practical purposes. ;)
[Omnia II General] hazeline:
Hi, i noticed that the more recent HTC phone will dim their screen slowly when the user presses the lock button and when they repress their lock button to unlock, the screen slowly brighten up. May i know this sort of animation effect is hardware based or is it just software controlled. Also if this is software controlled, is it possible for Omnia 2 to have it? Thank You.

We (Stanfy) have developed game for Android called Fox Hunter.

You will love it if you like to train your brain and to solve logic tasks.

Foxes are hidden in the field. Tap cells and discover where they are. Train your brain and enjoy the beautiful design. The goal is to find all foxes in the game field. Tap or use your phone cursor keys to discover cells on the field. When a fox is found the image will be shown. Otherwise you'll see the number of foxes located on vertical, horizontal and diagonals relatively to the current cell.

Your task is to calculate the location of foxes and find them as soon as possible.

It is our first game and it will be great to hear feedback from you. :)

(not quite sure where to post this so just incase - sorry in advance)

ok, i rang O2-UK customer services today because since ive been flashing my p3300 i cannot access most websites because of an age restriction.

im not looking for porn, im talking about most sites in general.lol ;)

for example google image search url is redirected to:

http://wap.o2.co.uk/18plusaccess?op...MBER''&av_payment_type=2&business_user_flag=3

the operator said i can make a one off payment on a credit card or call into my local o2 shop with my id and they will 'unblock' the restriction on the sites fro free...

* i have id and i intend to go..

further into the convosation i mentioned that this would be in the regestery of the device, and if he told me what to edit id be able to do it myself.lol ;)

however he was not allowed to tell me how to change the regestery BUT said yes it would be in the regestery somewere.

which brings me to my question..

can anyone find out where this is in the regestery and and post me the regestery string where i need to edit.

if not ill be looking tonight myself but would be cool if someone already knew how to do this.

however he also told me if i flash the device again after ive been to the shop - i will have to go to the O2 shop again - to do it all over again.

i hope someone knows what im on about!lol :S

thank you :)

[HD2 General] c1ph3r0n:
Hi all, I have a big problem with my HD2 with stock rom 1.66. After navigation with HSDPA/3G the device cannot receive incoming calls. This occurs after at least 2 hours of device sleep. If the band is set to GSM only the problem doesn't occur.

I have contacted the customer care but the answer seems always to be the same, I was advised to uninstall all applications and to perform a hard reset, but it wasn't helpful.

Anyone tried to flash custom radios to solve the problem?

Thanx in advance for you reply.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Jogi-Bar:
Can I turn off the phone with GPS-connection on?

Backgroung:

I use the phone partly as GPS-tracker and there is often no mobile connection. This uses battery power which I need, if I have the GPS on for a long time.

Can any body help with a hint, a registry edit or tweek?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] pgonza02:
Have you tried switching the phone to Airplane mode? That should turn off all of the radios. Might turn off the GPS receiver as well though...hmm :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Jogi-Bar:
That exactly the problem: Under airplane mode the GPS will be disconnected.:cool:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Jogi-Bar:
Anybody an idea how to turn off only the phone but not the GPS?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
My comm manager has Phone as an option to turn off, this would keep GPS active.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Jogi-Bar:
OK, it works for the GPS-tracker but TOM TOM gives no connection due to flight mode. But this is not a big problem, but strange.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
Does TOM TOM have a triangulation or traffic setting? If so disable it, otherwise that is strange as it would not need to access the cell towers for anything.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Jogi-Bar:
Don't know where to check in TOM TOM. Looks as would such an adjustment not be possible.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
I run iGo and confirmed I can still get GPS signal when phone is set to off in comm manager.

check all of your TOMTOM settings for anyhting that would require data, such as "use cell towers for better location" or "traffic updates" etc.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Jogi-Bar:
Thank you for this info, but TomTom has no such function or possibilities as described by you ('Traffic-Info' is deactivated). It detects 'Airplan mode' and gives not GPS-connection. I think only a deep adjustment in the initialization could solve this item, but I don't know how.

Also is there any other GB/GBC emulator that can perform better and have as nice support for HW keyboard?
[HD2 General] alecs:
Does anyone know how to change the increments that the volume changes by when using the volume buttons. They increase/decrease too much for me (increments too large). I know you can use the screen but when using the buttons you don't get this granularity/smaller step in volume

i moaned about this a while back, it's dumb, but no one seemed to agree :confused:
[HD2 General] world705:

You can also change to the "sense music volume slider" (the green one with smaller steps) by reading a little here:

(it doesn't work in all applications though, but most!)
[HD2 General] Eggy88:
I have to agree, the steps are to large. I allways have to take my phone up and use the finger to adjust it to where i want it. I know ppl say "use ur finger etc" but since the buttons are there it should't be necessary to use ur finger.
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
exactly, i've used my finger to bring the volume up, why do i then have to use another finger to adjust it, its balls is what it is, balls lol
[HD2 General] alecs:
Folks, I looked at the posting that was provided and it offers another screen control for the volume. What I find strange is that with all the expertise on this forum all the great Roms, Cabs, and other ingenious registry tweaks etc nobody has found a way to modify the increments (which are obviously there) to be made available to the physical volume controls.

I suspect this is because it hasn't been investigated by many as it has not been seen as something in demand. However I would like to say that it is in demand and I'll give you my reason for its request. I have my device in the car in a phone holder and when driving I wear headphones (not HTC headphones). I often need a more granular ability to change the volume through the physical controls without looking at the screen so I can keep my eyes on the road.

I am sure there are many more instances such as this where people need this.

So if there is anyone out there that can help I am sure there would be many more people than on this thread that would give thanks once such a method is discovered.
[HD2 General] nicky-xda:

Hi. Welcome to XDA :) When I first signed up to xda I had no idea what I was looking for or what I even wanted to do to my phone. Being familiar to the whole forum edict rather than asking questions that have already been answered a million times over I noticed the handy dandy search function.

An example: Regarding you above question I searched, "rhodium custom sms tones for contacts" and was quickly presented with:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=407933

I have no personal experience with this program but I imagine that you are not the first person to request such a thing so there are probably plenty of options out there ;) Youtube is also a good reference source since you can search your phone and see custom things people have done to it. Check out the rom section for an all over makeover for you phone.

Xda's database is intimidating to say the least but sorting through what you need is pretty simplistic :) Good luck pimping you phone

[HD2 General] FerretAD:
Two days ago, Neowin entertained the posibility of the HTC HD2 getting a Windows Phone 7 Series upgrade. However, Microsoft has officially shot this down. Pocket-lint has received word from Microsoft's Oded Ran that there are no plans to upgrade the HD2. Not only that, but even devices made from here onward that meet WP7S requirements won't necessarily be upgraded either. However, all phones that come with WP7S loaded will be able to receive future OS upgrades.

"We've received many questions about the upgradability of HTC HD2 and we currently do not have plans to update the HTC HD2 to Windows Phone 7 Series... For Windows Phone 7 Series we are enforcing a strict set of hardware requirements to ensure a consistently great experience for end-users and developers... we cannot confirm that Windows Mobile 6.5 phones that satisfy those requirements will be upgradeable”

Ron, who is the head of consumer marketing, continued to stress the role Windows Mobile 6.5 (aka Starter Edition) as being an integral part of the Windows Mobile lineup. More WinMo 6.5 phones are expected to ship in the coming months.

"Windows Mobile 6.5 represents a significant part of the portfolio family that is Windows Phones. With over 50 phones available around the world today, it offers customers the freedom to choose from among the widest selection of device form factors and price points."

If you see this on Modaco, apols.

Hi folks, just picked one of these up for the £149 in Orange, but have a problem with wi-fi that I have had with a few WM devices over time, think its the AR6000 wlan chipset myself, seems very fussy about what and when it connects.

I would appreciate any help, but not please along the lines of "change your router", that ain't happening, it works fine with loads of other devices, so if this issue is non solveable, its the TG01 that goes! :-)

OK, first connection to the Router (its a Billion ADSL) was fine, got connection, worked OK. From there in, as soon as it woke up, no dice, just unable to connect, always shows up in both WM and Tosh wireless util as available, just never connects.

Now, what I have noticed with this and at other times when I have had this issue with past devices is that it puts some odd stuff in the IP address field in the Configure Networks Adaptors screen.

I have it set for Use Server Assigned IP Address, but in the field below, I get this odd stuff fe80:221:e8ff:fe88 instead of 192.xxx.xxx.xxx that should be in there. I am sure this is somehow related to my connection issues, but searching the web, seems like noone else ever had this?

[TG01 General] bojan6:
That is your IP. You need to configure it with get automatic IP or put you the IP but is more complicated.

This problem have origin be tween router and mobile or pc. Some time routers didn't assign an IP address.

Some time have other origin is a key try to put the key in different form AES or TKIP nbest one TKIP.

Check to security type.
[TG01 General] paroariax:
That looks like an IPv6 address as opposed to an IPv4 address, so I guess your router must be using IPv6. Does it not do this for your other devices? Maybe your router's DHCP serves up an IPv6 address because it detects that the TG01 can handle it. What happens when you try to do something meaningful on the network?
[TG01 General] useyourfist:
try and change your router security from wep (i assume it is due to a problem i have) and that seems to solve it,did for me neway and you are probably right about the chipset,
[TG01 General] kevwright:
Is it an IP address, all my other devices show 192.168.xxx.xxx, not seen that format before.

Checked the AES/TKIP thing, and tried both to no effect.

Also tried to set a static IP, but no dice.

Kev
[TG01 General] kevwright:
Hrmm, IPv6 address looks like

2001:0db8:3c4d:0015:0000:0000:abcd:ef12

Which is not really what I have, and nothing else uses it, in fact can not see any reference to IPv6 on the router.

[TG01 General] kevwright:
Security is WPA2-PSK, which to be fair works on lots of other devices, and I don't really wanna mess with them
