[Windows Mobile Software Development] heaver:
hello,

my phone has 128ram/256rom and 400mhz processor..will 6.5 run smooth? what about touchflo? if not, what is the lightest version of 6.5? i can only find lite versions for specific phones
[Windows Mobile Software Development] JR_de:
Well, what phone model do you have?
[Hero CDMA General] lalo45:
What is the absolute best setup for damagecontrol rom, to get optimal battery life. Cuz i cant seem to get the same results others are claiming, im not complaining, love the rom, just feel im doing something wrong or missing something. So plz share what ever info u can.;)
[Hero CDMA General] Sporkman:
this needed a new topic ?
[Hero CDMA General] aauussttiinn88:
at least hes not cluttering the thread more than it allready is.....on topic did you do the radio update?? or are you just on damage with stock radio?
[Hero CDMA General] nlinux:
I'm seeing this issue too, and I'm using the stock radio. I've been very hesitant to update my radio, but if it's quite safe to go with one of the others I'm open too. Searching the main damage thread is getting to be very painful also. I'm all for spreading the wealth out a little more.
[Hero CDMA General] boosted21:
Very easy to do, it the same as downloading a rom onto your phone.
[Hero CDMA General] nlinux:
My main question with this radio update is if I can flash it back to the original radio safely? Especially if I end up wanting to use a version of the sprint official update to 2.1.
[Hero CDMA General] Roman G:
Was not really on topic, sorry!
[Hero CDMA General] lalo45:
Agreed... thats the only reason i decided to create a whole new thread, it was getting really difficult search the thread for the specific info i needed... anyways, im currently on stock radio because im a little hesitant to flash the new ones, but if it trully is the #1 source fot all the outstanding battery life, ill take the plunge later tonight. One more question, i just want to be completely sure that setcpu and overclook r no longer needed.
[Hero CDMA General] red_neck_unix_tech:
I haven't updated my radio, came from the stock Sprint to DamageControl V1, and from what I can tell my battery life is as good as it was on stock, if not better.

I haven't updated the radio as I'm like a lot of you, wondering what the exact changes are in it, and wondering how much risk I'm taking with doing it. I'm concerned that the change made is to lower the radio output/input levels to keep battery life up better, and that it is potentially causing some of the roaming that people are seeing.
[Hero CDMA General] Wufei:
Just flashed the updated radio yesterday. It's pretty much the same process as flashing the ROM and just as reversible. I think the battery life is better but haven't had a few days to really test it.

I noticed that with the stock radio, if reception was good, it was fine, but if reception was spotty, it drains like whoa.
[Hero CDMA General] Sefferdog:
My battery life was way worse with the new radio, I swapped back to the old one and am back where I was before the flash.
[Hero CDMA General] bk718:
over 300 pages and over 3000 replies in the damagecontrol ROM thread... YES this needs a new topic.. and just in the same spirit as the devs are so nice to take their time and create these ROMs to help peoples experience, maybe it would have been more worth the while to help the OP with his question (seeing as u "tweak" things)

in fact there needs to be more new topics that encompasses the fixes and what-nots in the damagecontrol ROM
[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
I would also like to know the optimal setup for battery. I'm running DamageControl and I can't plug in my phone for 10 hours each day...
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
*#*#4636#*#*

Phone settings> CDMA (auto prl)

That's what gave me a giant boost.
[Hero CDMA General] bk718:
mine is already set to this.. but my batterys at about 20% by 4:30pm
[Hero CDMA General] YoungAceAtlanta:
ive been web browsing for 10-15mins, music for about 3-4 hours. gtalk all day. alot of phone calls both last about 15mins or 20. (pretty sure i had everything open in the background no task killer) n my battery is at bout 45% i unplugged it at 5am this morning.
[Hero CDMA General] mercuryhayes:
Jesus i love this rom but the battery life was HORRIBLE

it was horrible with stock radio as well as the newest one..

HOWEVER

i stumbled upon this post in the original thread (thanks for separating this into its own thread btw)

once i did this it was still acting weird, awake time was the same as up time...but i let it do its thing and played the waiting game..so far it seems like its how it was before i flashed. Im just waiting for the next update
[Hero CDMA General] Deleted member 884763:
Wow that's what I used to get on 1.5. What is your setup ?

I unplugged at 5am also. With a couple texts , a few messages over gTalk and I was at 60% by 1. :(
[Hero CDMA General] notasimpleway:
There's an app for this in the market. Called "Network" so that you don't have to type in that every time. I have it on my homescreen for easy access. :D
[Hero CDMA General] durandetto:
I have the newest radio and my phone is set to CDMA (auto), but my battery life is considerably worse compared to Fresh 2.0b. I can make it about 12 hours, with minimal use.
[Hero CDMA General] sinistermeshes:
After charging while.I sleep, and one more 30 minute charge during the day, my battery stays strong aaaalll day. The auto prl command helped too i suppose, as the one 30 min charge was 2 ro 3 times before.

Ps, im on my phone cooooonstantly
[Hero CDMA General] durandetto:
Removed the GSD file last night and no change. Pulled my phone off the charger at 8 and it's already down to 75% with only a few texts and a short phone call. No browsing or downloading.:(
[Hero CDMA General] swaze:
Just aa suggestion, not sure how much of a difference it will make but I turned off use wireless networks under location in the settings. I took my phone off the charger at 7 AM, and its almost 4 PM and im sitting at 91% after a few calls, a few texts and a little browsing and i downloaded 3 apps a few mins ago.
[Hero CDMA General] durandetto:
I'll try this and see if there is any improvement.
[Hero CDMA General] energizer1389:
Try this:

It was discussed in this thread and worked for me
[Hero CDMA General] dec3ption:
How much time was this? Because judging by your post time it seems that in almost 8 hours it went down to 75%, which to me would be excellent battery life!
[Hero CDMA General] durandetto:
It would be excellent if I was actually using my phone, but I only made about 6 texts and had a 5 min phone call and that's about it. If I even think about going on the browser my battery starts dropping. I bet two hours of browsing would suck down a full charge. I love this ROM so I am going to deal with it, but before I switched to 2.1 I was getting a solid 20 hours with moderate to heavy use.
[Hero CDMA General] durandetto:
I checked this already and mine was set to CDMA auto.
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
Make sure you crash it by hitting menu>select radio
[Hero CDMA General] durandetto:
Not sure I understand what you mean by "crash it", but I didn't have to change any settings mine was preset to CDMA auto.
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
By making it Force Close, it will relaunch with what it ACTUALLY is. The CDMA (auto prl) is a visual glitch.
[Hero CDMA General] durandetto:
I'll give that a shot and see how it does tomorrow. Thanks for the info.
[Hero CDMA General] dec3ption:
Wow..I would be thrilled if I could go 8 hours and my battery only drop 25%, even with just 6 texts and a 5 min phone call! I guess since I have my email, twitter, and weather updating every hour it'll effect it though...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Buzdugan:
Hello!

Recently I purchased my HTC TP2 Sprint and I'm having some problems adjusting to it.

1st issue: All my phone numbers are 0712345678, and when trying to call someone they all go (071)-234-567...something.

I've resolved the issue by editting the contact's number to +407612345678.

But there might be an easier way to fix all of them.

==========================================

2nd Issue: Can't use the phones InstantMessaging or any other type of messaging. Can't use windows update trough wifi (it tells me that it's checking but I don't see any activity on the WIFI icon), maybe it's the same issue with all these types of apps .Youtube app is working.

===========================================

3rd issue. Can I reflash it ? I mean full soft-body-makeover to standard HTC TP2 ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rhodium500:
You will have to find your provider's arcsoft messaging setting and enter them to use text messaging. You can only flash a cdma radio or rom otherwise you will brick device. I dont understand what the issue with dialing is. what is wrong if the dialer displays parentheses? windows update has never will work on any wm phones.
[HD2 General] OliveUK:
I am really surprised I can't find any info on how to quickly switch between applications on the HD2!

Am I the only one running several apps at the same time?!?! What is the point of buying a Winmo phone if you only run one app at a time... You might as well buy an Iphone then.

With the HD1 I was using aeButton to map ALT + Tab to the Volume Up double click but this doesn't work on the HD2. Any software anyone would recommend?

Thanks
[HD2 General] ephestione:
LMT by l3v5y and noname81 in the themes and apps section of hd2 forums has that function builtin with the double arrow gestures...
[HD2 General] kilrah:
I use AEBPlus task list on the Windows button. There's also quickmenu, taskfacade, HTC task switcher,...
[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
Search for "Touch X longpress sendkey alt tab". You basically hold down the call button and release, then a Windows ALT-TAB style floating window pops up.
[HD2 General] eaglesteve:
Your information on iPhone is incorrect. A jailbroken iPhone is perfectly capable of doing the Alt tab equivalent action to quickly switch to the next application.
[HD2 General] jonbaker76:
Is it the one in this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4948086&postcount=2
[HD2 General] OliveUK:
ok I will have a look at your suggestion.

TouchX is nice but it is not fast enough. I want to simulate the Quick ALT + Tab function ala aeButton, I am not interested in bringing up a Task Manager.

eaglesteve. I didn't realize the Iphone was multitask. Since when?
[HD2 General] eaglesteve:
Not exactly sure since when. But has been there long before I switched from winmo to iPhone. The problem is it has always been a polpular sport to bash this phone with all sorts of wrong information (like saying we can't customise it when in reality it is extremely customisable), so people here generally are seriously misled. The stock OS is only capable of multitasking the application from Apple with rare exception for third party software (Nike is I one such exception). In order to multitask all applications one must jailbreak the phone. The procedure could be ad simple as connecting the iPhone to a PC and run a program called Blackra1n, then click

a button in Blackra1n. Unfortunately Apple keeps trying to stop jailbreaking by modifying their firmware so it is a cat and mouse game. To avoid having out jailbreak disabled many of us simply ignore the latest firmware update whenever using iTune. The most current firmware has not been jailbroken because the development team does not want to reveal to Apple where the weakness of the firmware is until the next iPhone is released. In this way, apple will not get the chance to patch up the hole that has already been discovered.
[HD2 General] TicKByT:
But most of the idiots (Sorry) that fall for the iPhone bandwagon do not want to or even know how to do a jailbreak because they want out of the box functionality.
[HD2 General] patton82:
I think you didn't get the proper cab, touchx alt-tab is absolutly fast:

Touch X longpress sendkey Alt tab.cab
[HD2 General] eaglesteve:
It suits both group of users. Most users are 100% happy with multitasking just the Apple applications. They have no other needs besides being able to listen to music, receive emails/SMS, while surfing the web all at the same time. In fact these users stubbornly insist that they have absolutely no need to multitask anything else, so out of the box functionalities are 100% adequate for them.

Then there are geeky ones who would suffocate if they're not tweaking their phone constantly. These users are similar to those of you here who suffocate if they do not stop flashing a new ROM every week.

The procedure for jailbreak is a far simpler process than doing Hard SPL and flashing cooked ROM. The reversal process is even simpler so there's absolutely no good reason to not do it. Having said that, you can always find Apple basher who would insist that they want all these functions out of the box, then come around to complain that it is untweakable, uncustomizable, can't multitask etc.
[HD2 General] smeddy:
As someone posted, using the LMT solution would work well with an Alt-Tab program would work well. Personally, I have my four favourite, most-used apps on LMT (AlReader ebooks, CorePlayer, Google Maps, S2P), so I can switch to any of them in an instant.

http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=12981

While this isn't Alt-Tab, it's a worthy alternative for your four favourite things.

Hi,

I'll do my best to make a base German release for my dear German friends, as I really like "Deutsch" and going to visit "Deutschland" this summer.:D

Let's make it before English this time.;)

What do you think about COM3? One of the most stable branches up to now.

Any other suggestions?

Going to set my kitchen....:cool:

[Palm Treo 750] gmorris:
A couple things I want to customize:

(1) When dialing a call, I have to use the touch screen to dial numbers... unless I lock it into number mode first, then I can use the keyboard.

How can I make it default to number lock??

(1) The power button only works for waking up the screen.

How can I make the power button turn off screen or power off phone??

(3) Want to add icons to Home screen. Tried CHome Editor, but it's not working for me. No matter what I do, It won't commit any new panels or icons. It will only add or remove icons that are already part of the Windows Default.

Any ideas??

(4) And one more thing... The clock is not syncing with the provider. And I can't find a setting to make it.

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

I looked around a little bit but didn't see any other threads with answers so I started a new one. Is that ok?
[HD2 General] rob-ra:
Today I helped a friend flashing his HD2 for the first time. I used my own laptop since I have everything on it.... I synced his HD2 trusting the data would be saved seperate... It didn't... Now I have 600 extra contacts and my calendar is full till 2012.... Is there any way to undo this?

My HD2 is still clean btw...

What happens if you delete the partnership?
[HD2 General] rob-ra:
I dont know, but I dont think it will delete the agenda items, do you?

EDIT: Ended it, and still stuck with the agenda items
[HD2 General] kilrah:
I don't think there's a way unless you have a backup of your outlook file you can restore.

Maybe a risky thing, backup your outlook file, delete the partnership in WMDC (on the PC, not on the phone), delete everything you have on outlook, set WMDC so that the mobile device replaces the PC, and recreate the partnership.
[HD2 General] rob-ra:
Yes I was thinking about that to, but how do I set my HD2 to replace all on the PC?..
[HD2 General] kilrah:
In WMDC on the PC... but actually it seems that's within a partnership, so not sure it would be kept if you delete it...
[HD2 General] rob-ra:
well thanks! I'm going to try it tomorrow, I'll post the results ;)
[HD2 General] rob-ra:
Well.. I deleted the sync relation on my mobile and POOF all my contacts etc were gone... -_-.. **** happends
[HD2 General] cw-data:
This happened to me when syncing with 2 PCs... with one of them had not synced my contacts in the first place... after trying to sync it, my phone was empty... then wanted to sync with the other one, where my contacts were still sitting...

guess what, the sync deleted all the contacts on the second PC, too... :mad: Fortunately, I had a backup... and now I sync my contacts also with MyPhone, just in case...

If anyone's looking for an extra cable or two, you can get them for $2.70/ea with free shipping from DealExtreme.com. I just got two in the mail today, and can confirm that they definitely have the same funky straight-side + sloped-side shape as HTC's own cables & fit the phone securely & snugly.

I can't really judge the wire quality (I'm not about to cut one open to examine it), but I'd say they appear to be about equal (or slightly higher) in quality than the cable that was bundled with the phone (same diameter cord, except the DX cord had strain relief & HTC's didn't).

Here's the URL (found by searching for "HTC USB" without quotes) -- http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.34016

Nooooooooooo! Do not, I repeat, DO NOT ever use dealxtreme! I ordered from them once, quite a bit of problems.1: It took 3 1/2 (Not kidding) months for it to arrive. 2: When the item did arrive, it was a cheap Chinese copy of the actual product, and didnt work. Guys, do yourselves a favour and order it from somewhere else. I wouldn't be suprised if thus guy is the owner of dealxtreme promoting his site.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] Roman G:
Same here, same cable that came with ps3, digital cameras and mini camcorders, and prolly a crap load if other things!

I have a ton of these lying around!
[Hero CDMA Accessories] chococrazy:
Lol I broke the cable to my Mogul I went to sprint store, and told them my update to 6.1 wasn't working (the truth) they said it could be the cable and handed me 2 factory packaged cables! For free.
[Hero CDMA Accessories] bitbang3r:
The problem with the regular cables is that they fall out unless the phone is on an absolutely stable surface. Half the reason I went on my quest to find the right cables was a road trip last month when I tried to use the cable from my old PPC-6700 with the phone laying on the back seat of the car next to me. Every time the car went over a bump, the cable briefly disconnected and I had to re-tether.

Anyway, I'm just pointing out a decent source of something that's just about impossible to buy for a reasonable price at a local retail store in the US (at least, stores like Best Buy, Radio Shack, and CompUSA).

Unless you're using the additional Audio I/O connections at the bottom of the connector, there's no real benefit to using an HTC type USB cable over a regular mini-USB cable. I use both without issue.
