fixxer i meant no harm in my post. just saying i think u get to bored to easy..and are always wanting the next big thing.. nothing wrong with that.. just dont post around everywhere saying stuff like u did. all it does is get people all jacked up..and people start being rude to u..

Just remember no smartphone is perfect..and every one has bugs to one degree or another..the good thing bout the hero and htc phones in general..is the support of people here and on ppcgeeks.. just remember that... without that extra support all phones would suck.lol
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
pretty sure the "overclocking to 640" is just a graphical glitch lol
[Hero CDMA General] Negrito:
Pretty sure most of us do. Willing to bet fresh, flipz, toast, gbhil, and the others do.

LMAO! Aint that the truth!

Wtf, mate? How did you get up to 640? :eek: and i thought stock was 528Mhz?
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
look at my post above yours...

it's just a graphical glitch. it's still 528
[Hero CDMA General] usq:
another 2 cents

fixxer-

i am still running 1.5 (pancake) which i have been quite happy with. after 3 weeks of running it i noticed it was really starting to lag quite a bit. i just rebooted it (probably been 10 days or longer) and its running smooth again with very little lag. i havent upgraded to 2.1 yet because i have been pretty impressed with the speed of pancake (much better than stock). i will upgrade soon though because its fun to try new things out.

it does sound a bit like you have a short attention span. you should try 2.1 or rebooting now and then before sinking another $500 in a new phone. stick with it. phones have been in a very deep cutting edge progression in the last number of years. it will be a few more years before it levels out and they are full able to work just like you want ootb.

btw- my comments were not in any way trying to cut you down; just encouraging.

cheers and best of luck,

ryan

[Hero CDMA General] menzo44:
Wow what a quote! I spent half my day last weekend away from my 3 kids and beautiful wife, on my only day off from my very demanding job to try and build a fully functional palm pre theme for this guy. I even felt bad when I sent him a pm the next day when I had to tell him that I wouldnt be working on it anymore because my wife bought me a new video game that I had been wanting and didn't have time for both. Wow what a JERK. Good bye and good riddance!
[Hero CDMA General] dcdave63:
I think this thread ran out of redeeming qualities 8 pages ago. Why the mods haven't locked this one down is beyond me. Yes, he has an opinion, and yes most of you don't agree with him. But to come on and start spending 8 pages crapping all over him? What is this? Really??
[Hero CDMA General] obelisk79:
I've been lobbying for an active moderator in this sub-forum for a couple of months now. Even offered to take on the responsibility myself. I'm probably a bigger XDA junkie than I am a phone junkie.
[Hero CDMA General] H4k3r4r34l:
my vote goes to you. <<not being sarcastic
[Hero CDMA General] smoother2010:
Not to be rude but did it ever occur to you that he wasn't talking directly to you? I think this thread should be locked. Ive lurked for a long time and some of you go a bit too far when someone has a different opinion or doesn't want to learn how to create roms and such.

And to add to what he said and no im not taking his side but alot of users complain about the slowness of the hero. I was just at android central and there is a thread on it. Most say they will jump to the nexus when it comes out. Myself ill have to wait and see what the price tag is?
[Hero CDMA General] gabby538:
I also have been lurking around the scene laughing at the food jokes, but seriously if you guys think about it, htc did give us a phone that is outdated, i mean dont get me wrong love my hero, but i wish they would have put a qualcom snapdragon processor in my phone, the droid has it, and that came out before the hero. just wish sprint would have a faster hero. like how verizon got the palm pre plus and the palm pixi plus, what is with sprint boning us?
[Hero CDMA General] Genjinaro:
No, not true: the Hero came out 1st, over the summer in Europe & early fall to the US. The Moto Droid didn't come until late fall.

And the Droid doesn't have a snapdragon processor lol, its a Cortex A8 processor.:p
[Hero CDMA General] :
If by crapping you mean pointing out the truth.
[Hero CDMA General] MagnusRagnarok:
H3ro's not so bad...

Hero is my first htc device android product. I payed 105.99 @ BB and it has proved its weight in gold in the 4 short months i have owned it. I will not sell it. Will i own a N1 the second sprint sells it? OF COURSE. When Supersonic is released with 4g,wimax, and a 1ghz+ snapdragon, WILL I OWN IT? YOU BET. Because another device superior to mine is sold, do i have the right to rag on my OWN personal investment decision? SURE.Does that have anything to do with the device's market inferiority 3 years after it went on sale? ummmm....NO. I had my iphone for 2.5 yrs. What did i learn about anything? NOTHING. Ive learned enough about android and my hero to get it to look how ever i want, and to do what ever i need(from a phone). I appreciate the ppl & things that make my life easier. Few things for the op to consider:

1)Hero is built with 2k7 technology

2)If it took you more than 2 weeks to realize your phone was too slow* for you,its probably not actually the phone.

2)I do things everyday on my hero that an N1 cannot do stock*

3)You had the time to post this lame ass thread w/o having already flashed a 2.1 rom?(really?)

4)What satisfaction is gained by whining to a bunch of males?

5)Get another phone, you seem like an iphone guy.

6)Put some effort into making your device into what you expect/want it to be before complaining when the device you're expecting to transform into a stealth bomber and nuke japan is +3yrs old.

7)Maybe your negative vibes just make your hero sad and slow it down:(

I mean no offense to the op, i just feel like a good friend of mine incapable of defending themselves has been being attacked. Cheer up & i bet things will get better:)
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
hahahahahaha
[Hero CDMA General] Dan330:
I think we all made our point ..

I read in dc v1 thread earlier today .. he will try the 2.1 ROM !

Hope he finds some relief ...

But I bet we just gave him a new set of things to complain about ! And maybe piss off a good valuable developer

How well does it work with the MT3G? Does it require a stick-on on the dash first?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] stillriza:
I used this one..

http://cgi.ebay.ca/Custom-Car-Mount...wItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item3a5857eb41

Have been using this one for a while now.. It's actually very sturdy and becuase its made specifically for our phones, it looks sooo much better and very smooth compared to the other universal ones.

When you order, keep in mind it's coming from china..it took around 3 weeks to receive but well worth the wait.

It's sticks to the windshield like a champ and will not budge unless you use the release tab. Highley recommended for nav purposes.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] cigar3tte:
I do not want anything sticking on the windshield. Hate the mark it leaves.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] ashykat:
I would recommend pro clip usa dot com. (Still a newbie, can't post URLS yet). They have custom mounts for every car, and then holders/cradles specifically for every device/phone. They have one for the myTouch so that you just slide your phone in and it basically docks it. There is a 3 in 1 adapter connected to the dock that allows you to charge the phone, has a 3.5mm output, and a spot for a wired headset. I like these kinds of docks since you don't have to fumble around for wires when you get in your car. Just dock and go. I don't actually have this one yet (I just got my myTouch) but I had one for my old iPhone and it was very sturdy/high quality. I plan on ordering
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] cigar3tte:
Good stuff, but way too expensive. The two parts combine for over $50! Maybe when I have some spare cash.

I'm french, and I have this one:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G

HBOOT-1.33.0004 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-10

RADIO-2.22.19.26I

Apr 9 2009,23:30:40

Baseband: 62.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I

I have flashed my phone with AOSP Donut sapphire 32A by luo 0.6

All was ok but after one reboot, I can't use my sdcard, like if I don't have one inserted.

Many try after, I finished by do a "wipe". sh***

now, when I want to apply update with the fastboot boot recovery, I click on 'apply update.zip", and I have this:

E:can't mount /dev/block/mcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)

(no such file or directory)

E:can't mount SDCARD:update.zip

Installation aborded.

tried many recovery.img (1.2.1, 1.3.2g, 1.5.0g)

tried to partition sdcard with recovery 1.5.0g, succes, but same error.

I don't have media card reader, so I can't see if my sdcard is ok.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] adavis159:
there are self adheasve plastic disks that let you dash-mount windshield-type mounts; both of the car GPSes I have bought came with one
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] AdrianK:
Get an SD card reader and format the card or buy a new card.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Accessories] skinnyveganboy:
that's the one i use with my 3g but mine came with clips for air vents, that's what i use for google maps. love it
[Android Software Development] Obsidiandesire:
A small app I wrote for my convenience. The source code is about 13 lines long, it has no advanced features, simply an easier way of typing in "adb install path/to/file".

Currently windows only, if it gains a few downloads i'll release a linux app.

If anyone wants the source feel free. It was coded in C++

Simply drag the apk file onto the exe. or set it as the default program for opening the file, then all you have to do is double click on the apk for it to install.

It won't tell you if there are any errors (though you may see it in the command window that pops up momenterilly). This was a personal project for my own convenience I just thought I'd post it here.
[Android Software Development] nattiii:
Nice, I created similar thing:

a little batch-script for windows

@echo off
echo Installing %1
echo ---------------------------------------------------
"C:\android-sdk-windows\tools\adb.exe" install %1
echo ---------------------------------------------------
pause
@echo on

I saved it in my windows folder and assigned the *.apk filetype to it in Folder Settings->File types with this:

apkinstaller.bat %1

After that: double click on your apk and voila :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] louwEEh:
oke i updated the htc rom from the official site, now i got shorcuts etc on front screen nice nice nice but the sms tab is ****t up, it doesnt go automatic to the top if u get new sms etc its worse than before

and worse off all there is no way to check the messeges u sended to people since i sms alot i sometimes forget what i sended yesterday etc

is there any way to fix this problem? i prefer the sms way of the older official roms

thx a lot if u help me with this! :)
[HD2 General] zolom:
Is there a way to Prevent Suspend mode for specific applications? suc as Mp3 player or in my case for LastFM player.

The screen can still go dim, but the HD2 should not enter Suspend state, only when the "chosen application is running.

Thanks
[HD2 General] zolom:
Anyone have a clue?
[Touch HD General] ilhaq:
Hi,

I was wondering if the touch HD can be adjusted so that the volume buttons can be used during music playback (with screen truned off)to change tracks up or down depending on which button is pressed for some seconds?

You know like it does with the volume(where screen is off yet buttons functionality is available):confused:

itll save time having to take the phone out of your pocket everytime...
[Touch HD General] Floh0815:
I personally use AEButton Plus. With this program you can reassign all buttons with new Commands.

The config is:

Volume Up

One Press - Up (Last Title)

Double Press - Volume Up

Volume Down

One Press - Down (Next Title)

Double Press - Volume Down

Download http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php

[Touch HD General] ilhaq:
yh i think thats pretty close to what I was thinking, ill download and try it now

Thanks:cool:
[Touch HD General] User X:
Try the Core Player. It has this feature built-in that you can assign any function to any button. Also some ROMs are tweaked to skip tracks with volume buttons when screen is off (like Laurentius26's V4) with HTC Sense's player.
[Touch HD General] ilhaq:
im not that keen on downloading unofficial roms anymore but ill give core player a try

Thanks

Does anyone know if the LG IQ 825 (Telus) can run Windows Phone (7)?
[eXpo GW820, GW825 IQ ROM Development] xdapants:
It's unlikely :(

There's no multi-touch which is apparently a requirement. It's possible one of the geniuses on xda will manage to hack around that ... we shall have to wait and see
[eXpo GW820, GW825 IQ ROM Development] killerskincanoe:
i don't understand why it'd be a requirement... there's only like a few things that utilize it atm rite? like picture zooming and web browser zooming? or are there loads of other things to do with multi-touch?
[eXpo GW820, GW825 IQ ROM Development] xdapants:
The problem I'd assume we'll see is that if the OS expects multitouch, everything "on top" of it will as well....I have faith in the geniuses here at xda, but I gotta imagine that's going to be a big hurdle to hack out/around.
[eXpo GW820, GW825 IQ ROM Development] dcarr622:
I think the main issue here is going to be lack of a capacitive display and lack of official drivers for WP7S.

Let's put it this way: if it doesn't get ported to the HD2, I doubt you'll see it on here.
[eXpo GW820, GW825 IQ ROM Development] nev310:
i rather have a dual boot android/ wimo phone than windows phone 7. windows phone 7 is too locked down only thing i like is the zune marketplace part.

the tp2 has android dual boot http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/h...loves-it-vide/

so i was thinking it could be done on the expo. wimo 6.5 really makes a 1ghz cpu feel slow and 256mb ram feel like nothing.
[eXpo GW820, GW825 IQ ROM Development] trueg:
The initial leaked information for the LG Monaco was that it was going to be a Windows Mobile 7 phone...

http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=4580

Which explains the lack of a stylus.

It would seem that Windows Mobile 7 was talking too long, so LG slapped on WM 6.5 and included an external stylus.

The only way we would get Windows Mobile 7 now, is if LG decides it is worth the effort. I don't believe it has been that great of a seller, so I can't imagine them doing that, but you never know.
[eXpo GW820, GW825 IQ ROM Development] GuySparkz:
so is the att branded lg expo going to be win7 phone compatible?
[eXpo GW820, GW825 IQ ROM Development] leobg:
no

(your message is too short)
[HD2 General] dongster:
Hello,

Q1) There are only 3 alarms available in Windows Mobile 6.5. Does anyone knows how to add more?

Q2) Also, I remember when i was using HTC Touch, when new SMS comes in, it appears on the screen and i was able to either 'hide' or 'open' the SMS. On HD2, when I set it to show new SMS, I can only hide it but I can't open it to read. Instead, I have to go through 'HTC Messages'. Does anyone knows how to have both options 'hide' (on the left) and 'open' (on the right) available when new SMS shows up?

Please see attached screenshots if I did not manage to explain well.

Appreciate all kind advice.

Many thanks in advance!
[HD2 General] dongster:
I've tries to add more entries in the registry to add more alarms, but apparently it doesn't work.

and I've no clue for the sms issue either.

does anyone have the same issues as me? any clues?

thanks.
[HD2 General] kivine:
galarm

i guess
[HD2 General] dongster:
indeed, I've read about all e good comments about it. in fact, I installed it 2 months ago, but I encountered problems like battery drains n missed alarms. I've since uninstalled. maybe this problem is not too common with other users, but it was a problem for me..

thanks for your suggestion though.
[HD2 General] Shadowdh:
pTravel alarm?

Works well for me and no battery drain... also if you are on the lock screen you can tap the open widget then swipe the sms widget and it opens sms screen or if you tap on the task bar it will give you the list of things to look at and one of them is the messages screen...
[HD2 General] Archer:
For the SMS, why not just turn off on-screen notification. When you get an SMS you'll get the usual audio/vibrate alert, and an icon in the taskbar. You can then just click on the SMS tab icon at the bottom and you're looking at the SMS. 1 click and you're there.

For the alarm question... there's a registry setting for this, but I don't know what it is. If you use BsB Tweaks you can enable "Windows Notifications" mode which "Enables dismiss X time in notification". This is a crap description and I used to just ignore this option as it sounded completely uninteresting. Then I found out what it is.

With this enabled, you get the option to select a sleep time for an alarm when it's going off (see the attachment). I doubt my boss would be impressed if I chose the last option though ;)

It will at least free up your second alarm as you could just snooze the first one for 10 minutes.
[HD2 General] abmantis:
I am also interested in the being able to open an sms from the notification dialog...
[HD2 General] pooh4o:
On Q1: I've been using SPB Time since quite long time. The new edition 2.1.2 is really awesome. And it answers to your question ;)

On Q2: When I receive sms I have sound + icon above on the taskbar. So if I click on the icon - "notification" window opens and after another click on new sms icon you see your sms. Just you pay one click more.
[HD2 General] abmantis:
It would be nice if on the notification "balloon" you had a Reply button that would automatically open the thread where that sms is in...
[HD2 General] dongster:
indeed, i remember this option to open sms on notification used to be available in older wm versions. and we could also dismiss instead of hide the sms.
[HD2 General] dongster:
gosh, i have been using bsb since day one (4mths ago) n have never paid attention to this tweak. i will give it a try, thank you!
[Networking] vildar009:
Hi,

does anybody know, if it is possible to use the MDA with wi-fi as a client?

I do not have the wi-fi on my laptop and wanted to connect to wireless network via my HTC TPII.

Thank you for the advice.
[Nexus One General] sinclac:
Is it worth the $600.00 for the Nexusone?

Thoughts Please.

Chuck
[Nexus One General] tribalmunky:
Definitely worth it if you have the cash the burn. I came into that situation when I came into the possession of a few StarCraft II beta keys, and technically only paid taxes on the phone.

My other reason is that I wanted to move to T-Mobile, the area I live has good coverage and I was paying way too much money as it were on AT&T. The Even More Plus plans make it an amazing phone to use on it. On AT&T they stick you with whatever $30 data plan. YMMV on that, because for the past half year I was on a Rogers HTC Magic on AT&T and was using their dumbphone unlimited plan for half that. But once I placed my SIM in the N1, the system kicked me up to the 30 dollar plan automatically.

As for the device itself, it's well built, feels very solid. Everything is just snappy when compared to the Magic, even portrait and landscape switching. When I got it earlier this week I was showing it around the office and probably made a few converts out of some iPhone people.
[Nexus One General] h2opoloplyr_11:
Well it depends. Have you used a smartphone or iphone before. Is this your first foray into touchscreens? Lots of questions, but heres my impression.

1) Phone is solid! sleek, and very thin for a smartphone.

2) Its feature packed with apps (only downside is no support for sd card apps install with the stock rom)

3) Google maps with navigation is killer!! especially with the free price tag.

4) People are experiencing low signal strenght when holding the bottom of the phone. I did notice that with the tmobile version, but i have the att version now and im guessing att service where i live is just that much better than tmo.

5) Screen is gorgeous. Resolution and the AMOLED technology is amazing.

6) Coming from iphone 3gs, the touchscreen isnt as good as the iphone, but the more i use the phone the less i notice the difference.

7) Call quality is about equal to the iphone.

8) Bottom menu buttons (back, menu, home and search) arent always spot on. I read somewhere here that you have to touch just above the icon and before the screen and its been responsive with that. hoping google will get that fix to actually be able to touch the icon and it should work.

9) Battery life for me has been good so far. Heavy text, light email and varying web use and it Lasts me all day and i usually charge my phone when i go to bed no matter what anyway.

10) And you have 14 days to test drive the phone. Only thing is that you pay $45 for restocking fee. W

So people can talk about this phone, but ultimately its going to end up with your decision. So either find someone with a nexus one to see in person, or buy it and return within 14 days if you dont like it and just get charged $45 after you get your refund.

Hope this helps
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
NO

This phone is absolutely TERRIBLE

Get an iPhone
[Nexus One General] JAW$:
Good Phone, Get one
[Nexus One General] Master_sk3:
Yes it is worth it especially when we get flash 10.1
[Nexus One General] bugsy:
Great phone. You'll hear about a few perceived issues, but overall it's a great phone. I like it much better than the iphone 3GS it replaced.
[Nexus One General] hktony:
it worths ,

1) it is fast, or even faster than iphone 3gs

2) you can use different widges instead of plain and simple icons in iphone.

3) although the apps is not that much than iphone , the apps is still enough for general use

4) easy to use , dont need itunes support, unmounted the sd cards anytime without any problems :)

5)

but i still missed the magnifier when choosing words in iphone and i feel disappointed about the youtube apps in nexus one, because i cant change the default location and this is useless to other countries beside US.
[Nexus One General] darx:
My life now revolves around my nexus one. That's how good it is.

[Nexus One General] sinclac:
Well i guess i could ask in the iphone section :D
[Nexus One General] nDrg:
I mite be just a lil biased :P but i couldn't be happier that i bought this phone. Coming from a SE C905 its a completely different experience! I had the chance to use a HTC Hero phone and speed/screen wise it simply didn't compare, it's an awesome phone :)
[Nexus One General] e-dub:
absolutely loving this mobile, and you will too.

[Nexus One General] xombe:
I second that. How dare you consider the Nexus One when a heavenly device such as the iPhone is on the market. It is now even available in Commie Red or Suppression Purple.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:
LOL, What have u bin smoken? :D or check the air your breathing :eek:
[Nexus One General] Albaholic:
I think it will vary from person to person. I had a Blackberry curve... then the HTC TP2. I don't think I've ever truly experienced what a smartphone should be like until I got my N1. I absolutely think it was it was worth it.
