[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
All those features can't be replaced by alternatives. You're sounding like one of those Linux people who actually think GIMP can replace PhotoShop for anything but the quasi-hobbyist. It is not hard to go into a store and use a Windows Phone 7 device. Go use one, then think about what's going to replace them.

On top of that, who's going to develop those replacements. Non-serious developers would be hard pressed to develop a replacement for OneNote Mobile, Zune, etc. and they certainly don't have the cash or the clout to start a Zune Pass service... Among other things.

You're citing these things can be replaced by alternatives, when no alternatives exist and I doubt any will. No develop will waste that much time developing apps for basically 1 phone running a pirated version of WP7, and putting it on an app market for people who want to side load applications - potentially opening his profits up to being raped by piracy...

Thing this through a little.

You are a minority, says FaceBook and Twitter's user base.

On top of that, Windows Mobile phones have never been cloud-centric, so if you have an HD2 no wonder you have gotten by just fine without it being connected. Nothing on Windows Mobile required you to use your Live ID (the Windows Marketplace came too late to be relevant, was only useful for getting Microsoft apps like Office Mobile 2010 and Windows Live for Windows Mobile updates, etc.). On Windows Phone 7 entire categories of functionality become disfunctional without a Live ID, and if you cannot use the phone to access Live Services.

Usage habits adapt to the device you have. You very well may be able to get along jut find thinking you scored some ridiculously great upgrade, but WP7 without Live Services access is about as good as a Feature Phone OS with Internet Restrictions and a better user interface. It's close to useless.

Do not base arguments off assumptions.

It will be a mystery to me head does.

Problem description:

At Friday, 27.2 I first became that I noticed that I had two days not sync contacts, even though I added some new ones. At that time I had SUPERD, now I Fasttest. Since then, it happened to me several times.

What I tried:

-It did not delete the storage contact

re-enter Google Account It did not

-simple reboot took about twice and did not take about 100x

-wipe has systematically helped

What totally does my head?

Today at 10.00h in the morning, everything worked as it should. I made a backup named bart fastfunkcni. In approx. 14h synchronization bore me again. So I restored the backup "fastfunkcni and stifled everything again (it is still logical). About ten minutes ago I stopped again to go sync, restore backup "fastfunkcni and still can not sync -> Oh, this logic does not come to me and mainly it comes to **** ...

My knowledge of the past two error:

In 14h, when I stopped to go sync again, I seen before a moment to renew assistance APK sms Backup for root user.

A last case, when it ceased to go was when I received an SMS and I wanted to just try to make sure whether it was a bore.

Do you have any ideas?

Thanks for your help ...

EDIT: Now I've noticed - when you press the contacts menu, should be there snychronizace where the item is to determine Which groups will not sync groups? Ja him there now, not at all.

Hi,

Iv'e been wondering when it is best to do a hard reset, before or after you flash a new cooked ROM?

What are your thoughts on this?
[HD2 General] o0obixelo0o:
i usually do an hard reset before and after :)

so the new ROM will be installed on a fresh system.

this is just my own way ;)

Will Unlocking and Flashing the T-Mobile Maple cause AT&T to know what kind of phone I have?
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] disgruntledjanitor:
I need to know soon. Anyone with an unlocked and flashed Maple that doesn't get charged with a PDA plan? or does it sound like it'll work?
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] Does_It_Matter:
Your provider shouldn't care what phone you use as long as the SIM card

will work in it and connect to their network.

You will get your standard phone charges and data charges (if you use internet/SMS)

Don't know what a PDA plan is?

Recently i installed a new dialer for my tg01 called: the equinoxe wizard retouched dialer. This is impossible for me uninstall this cab.

Thanks in advance.

Why did you changed iphone for winmo, if not indiscreet?
[TG01 Themes and Apps] coma11:
It Can not be uninstalled (1 last try below)

I was stuck with it for a day

tried registery change,replacing the bmp images,reinstalling(so it will remove the previous installed version) and also installing another cab to override it

nothing worked =)

next time make sure the cab you install is for wvga and read other posts about it...I found all the "help help" posts too late too.

lol

I am not promising anything but try this:

disable cprog.exe process using "process manager" application

then try to uninstall the cab.

if it worked great for you.say thanks to CoolKat...got the idea from one of his posts

if not do what I did.

Hard reset.

and next time make a back up before you try something =)

I have a erratic fault on my HD2...I can't always unlock the device.

The slide to unlock icon lights but refuses to slide. Sometimes it will eventually slide (after 30-40 attempts) other times I have to either soft reset or remove the battery.

BTW the HD2 is the Australian version that I use in the US to get decent 3G speed.

Try to make a new clear copy ROM.

1) install the SPB Backup

link - CAB (English): SpbBackup2.arm.cab

2) back up custom data orgenaizer Email ( if you need it )

and your document ( if you need it )

3) install your custom ROM that you use right now ... ( hard boot )

Note!

Dont install to many custom themes it slows down the device ( not all but do ) i had some thing like your problem also ...

if this dont work try to install other unlock theme

like the mini hd unlock screen

I've hard booted before & the problem remained with the standard lock.

I have a similar problem after I keep it working for 2-3days. For my case the slider can slide but the mobile can not be unlocked. Any advice?
[HD2 General] gillgrylls:
ive read that HTC has had an ongoing issue with defective touchscreens so your phone probably needs to be replaced. I had my phone doing this off and on and one evening it just quit working altogether.

I flashed every rom i could find and nothing worked. task 29, MTTY, stock rom...nothing helped. i got a replacement a week ago and its working fine and the screen issues with texting and such are gone where as my original HD2 showed many signs of the touch errors mentioned in other posts!

best guess would be to get the phone replaced!!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Mrsums:
Odd issue, but prob just me being thick.

Bought replacement Advantage off ebay to replace my old/dying one. It was said to be locked to O2, but I put in my SIM (T-Mob) and it "just works". Happy Bunny me.

BUT, I just tried to dial Voicemail and I get a recorded message saying my voicemail has been re-set, please wait 5 minutes to re-dial. 5 mins later I dial and get same message.

Got hold of T-mob and they are stumped. Put SIM back into old phone and works just fine.

So the question is whether the new phone is "locked" and whether simply unlocking it will work.

Apprecaite yr thoughts before I stump up my hard-earned

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Mrsums:
Just had a call back from T-Mob (hey, pretty good service !!) - according to the very nice lady, who had done some research the problem may be that my HTC phone doesn't reconize the "+" sign at the beginning of the phone # for voicemail. Could I try dialling long-hand.

I did, and it worked ! She says some HTC phones and some Crackberrys have this problem. Never experienced it before, but then again I either used T-mobs software on the Ameo or MiChy's rather lovely cooked replacements.

Is there a registry setting somewhere?

i was hoping to use this to move just the apps i currently have installed on my phone to the sd, but the 512mb partition is now down to 398mb, and i only had about 3 apps installed (i was just testing).

does this mean that all the apps like market and voice search are now installed on the sd?

is there any way to go back to how it was set up originally?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
Which rom are you on? Cyan backs up his system apps on sd because of his special relationship with Google. All Hero/Eclair roms will put stuff on SD because there's not enough space on internal memory. It will not hurt if you do it, even if you apps are already on sd.

Good luck.

[Nexus One General] keet:
Because my Nexus one had a dead/stuck pixel, I called H.T.C. and requested a repair. I sent it to them, and a few days later they said that they had examined it and determined that I needed to pay for the repair. I asked them why, and they replied that it was scratched and cracked.

Well, when I sent it to them, I had an invisible shield (a full body one, mind you) on it, and there nary a blemish on the screen. I told them this, and after a few days (and a couple more telephone calls), one of their managers had a technician examine it, found that it was fine, and said that they would fix it for free.

I received it on Monday, but didn't touch it until Wednesday because I was busy at work and waiting for the new invisible shield that I had ordered. When I used it, I noticed that they had removed the invisible shield, which I expected, but they hadn't fixed the stuck pixel! (Besides this, I had returned it to them with the original box, which they didn't send back to me)

So I called them last night and requested another repair. The representative asked me if they had charged my account for the shipping, and I answered truthfully that no, they had not charged me at all. I suppose that I am fortunate that they didn't, considering the other things they did. So now I am sending my Nexus One back two weeks after I returned it to them the first time, hoping that they will fix it properly, and without any argument.
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
HTC never charges you for return shipping. You only have to pay to ship it to them.
[Nexus One General] dextroz:
I am sorry you are having these troubles!

I successfully swapped my Nexus One due to a dead pixel within 3 days! I made a call on Day one at 11pm and by Day 3 at 8 am I had my replacement phone.
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
That's a bit crap, in the UK they email you a pre-paid shipping label.
[Nexus One General] keet:
I live in the U.S.A., and they sent me a prepaid shipping label. I'm just ticked off because I sent it to them, argued with them for four days, and they didn't even fix it, and two weeks later I need to send it right back. Plus it cost me another Invisible Shield.
[Nexus One General] Constrabus:
Swap method is always better, faster, and easier. Plus, you get a new phone. Who doesn't love that?
[Nexus One General] keet:
They said that they couldn't swap it because it was too far (a few weeks) the purchase date. Maybe the person I spoke to didn't know what she was talking about. That's sort of my impression of the support division of the company, though I know I'm probably having an unrepresentative bad experience.
[Nexus One General] mgymnop:
I think this is BS from HTC. I swapped my N1 after almost two months. They will put a hold on your credit card; if you can live with that the replacement is much faster than the repair.
[Nexus One General] keet:
I'll consider that if they don't fix it properly this time. I didn't want to swap it because of my engraving and the full-body invisible shield that I put on it, but if they don't fix it this time, I probably won't be willing to trust their repair department again.
[Nexus One General] bobdude5:
I had much better customer service from Apple when I had my iPhone ..I'm getting really annoyed with HTC ...especialy with that multitouch issue..
[Nexus One General] jin1207:
I have a question. Did they release $28 after you got your 'repaired' phone?
[Nexus One General] rockyxda:
I had a dead easy time with apple and my wife's 3G and her 3GS ... you walk in with the broken phone, they demand £150 (ish) for the repair which is always your fault. They then do an estimate and if its expensive (ie > £150) they turn round and say it's BER (beyond economical repair) and offer to sell you a new one. If it's a cheap fix (ie cracked glass) they repair it and pocket the £150.

Now that is customer service!

Other issues such as the 3G problem on the iPhone where it cascades from 3G to Edge to GRPS to No Service and the only way to get it back is to either power off or switch to airplane mode and back. Took it into two phone shops and then the Apple store in London and their solution? Turn off 3G.

Although their best to date is a macbook which I hardly ever use stopped charging. Rang up and they said bring it in to the Genius Bar in 2 weeks. I did, they then said it's warranty expired yesterday (13 days after I reported the fault) and refused to touch it. Demanded to see the manager said they would do me a favour and look at it for free as it was only 1 day outside warranty. They checked the battery and it had been charged 37 times in a year. The guy said this was quite heavy use and was a years worth and I would have to buy a new battery! Queue one massive kick off in the Apple store, resulting in them begrudgingly fitted a new battery!

Or the iMac 24" ATI I bought that crashed all the time, they gave me 3 units before I read on the internet that it was a software issue. I started running XP and voila ... sorted. Apple rolled out a fix quietly without telling anyone a month or so later.

Yes Apple support rocks!

All modern companies support sucks in some cases ... get used to it. Sell a million units and if you get 99% satisfaction you will get 10000 unhappy customers. Give them a platform to shout on and voila!

I bet not everyone gets Apple support like I do, some people probably can't believe how good they are.

Anyway, enough ranting, I wish google would fix the screen calibration issue although I only need to dab the power button and unlock it to fix mine.
[Nexus One General] bmj1086:
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Having worked in multiple call centers let me be the first to tell you that it's hard to find intelligence or common sense in them. I work in a call center for AT&T right now and I do work for the Vice President and Assistant Vice President because nobody else knows what they're doing. As soon as they realized that I had common sense and knowledge of technology they took me off of the phone, gave me a raise and converted me from Contractor to Employee. I asked my Director "Why do you let the managers hire people who are so ignorant" His reply was "I'm paying them $17/hr, I don't expect them to think. We have the information and tools set in place to think for them. If I wanted them to think then I would hire people with a higher intelligence and I would pay them more. Instead, I have people like you come up with tools and other things to think for them"

So this is why I hate when people say "I called T-Mobile and they said..." because that means nothing. You can get a different answer every time because most of them don't know the answer because your questions are above their level of intelligence. Now, I'm in no way saying that every person who works in a call center is an idiot. I'm saying that a large percentage of them do not understand anything about what they're troubleshooting.
[Nexus One General] keet:
I was reading a survey in P.C. Magazine about customers' ratings of the service and product quality from companies such as Apple, Toshiba, and Hewlett-Packard. They rated things such as the frequency with which hardware was found to be faulty soon after purchase, how easy it was to have it replaced, and other such topics. Apple did rank first overall, and Toshiba ranked second. This doesn't surprise me, since I have a ten year old Toshiba Tecra 8100 that still runs fine, though I've fixed the screen hinges.

H.T.C. was not in their listing, and I had never dealt with their support before. I replaced my X51v's screen myself after having it for three years and getting some water damage (I also replaced the backup battery later), and that's working fine now. I'm kind of nervous now -- I half expect my Nexus One to come back with real scratches on the screen, or more dead pixels, or some other problem that it didn't have before. After they already accused me of damaging it last time, I sort of wonder what they might damage to do with it this time -- something worse than sending it back unfixed.
[Nexus One General] keet:
Yes, they did; they didn't charge me any money.
[Nexus One General] ram130:
dwl, classic!! Are you also saying any one with great talking skills can get the job as customer rep too?
[Nexus One General] jin1207:
Thanks, buddy. I can let mine go to repairing.

Hope you get what you expect
[Nexus One General] keet:
I sent it back to them last Thursday, of course, and received a message on Monday saying that they had received it. Today, I received another message saying that they had completed their diagnostics, and guess what my option was? Pay for repair, just like last time! I sent a response asking why and called them, but all the morons in their customer service department could do was 'escalate' it, so I just sent a complaint to the Better Business Bureau.
[Nexus One General] jerhoyet:
I would be careful saying anything pro apple on this forum, lol.

I have been pretty lucky with both of my htc products so far. My N1 is great and so was my G1.
[Nexus One General] ram130:
By chance did they answer your question? or at least tell you the results of the diagnostics and how much they charging?
[Nexus One General] keet:
The online form says that the repair cost is $55, though it doesn't specify what they would fix -- I assume that they would fix the screen, but they might have something else in mind. They didn't answer any questions on the telephone; they didn't even tell me how long it would take for them to call me back. The manager said that it would be 'relatively soon'. I asked him, 'Relative to what?', and he didn't know.
[Nexus One General] ram130:
You shouldn't be charged. If it was me I would have taken a picture of how the phone looked before I sent to repair and after. That way I would have a case.:D
[Nexus One General] keet:
True, but I think that I already have a case because the first time that I sent it, they said that it was physically damaged, then found that it wasn't, and I have the correspondence to back it up. If it happened once, it can happen again, and I obviously am capable of mailing something safely.
[Nexus One General] ram130:
yep well get on it since your phone is there. Let the manager help you. Cause they just seem like they drop it by accident and trying to make you pick up the tab.
[Nexus One General] keet:
Believe me, I have been calling them. Even their managers say that they can't do anything but escalate it to the repair center. I think that they outsource their customer service to a company called Sitel. Whoever does it, they seem to have no clue of what is happening and no power to change it. No matter whom I talk to, it's like talking to a brick wall -- I called various numbers trying to find a hole in their defenses. They said that they escalated it, and the repair center to whom they escalated it will call be back in two or three days. I don't know what to do, other than drive to Texas and demand some real help. I did submit a complaint to the Better Business Bureau, but they haven't replied yet.
