[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grainysand:
I just realized how difficult it is to open the battery cover after you've inserted the battery. Anyone having trouble with it or am I just a huge failure? I don't want to push and wrench away at it in fear of breaking the thing, what with it being plastic.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stea1thmode:
Try applying pressure nearer to the bottom of the phone and push away from you. You scaredy cat:D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueScreenJunky:
Yeah, you have to apply pressure at the right place (at the center near the bottom) but it can be really difficult to open sometimes. At first I thought I'd get a spare battery to be able to switch when one is empty, but I can't see myself opening the phone every other day, I'm pretty sure I would break it eventually...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grainysand:
Every time I apply pressure it makes this sound like it's about to break. D: And I keep getting the feeling I'm going to crack the screen. I'll flash damn near anything all day long, but breaking the thing physically scares the daylight out of me.

No success, btw. Either I'm not pressing in the right place or not pressing hard enough. Swear to god I opened the thing multiple times the first day I got it (after the battery was in, no less) since I got the SIM card in the wrong way. Now it's tight as... well, very tight. Plastic isn't supposed to expand, damn it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stea1thmode:
the trick is to handle the phone at its sides, that way you wont risk breaking your screen. So apply preesure at the sides of the battery door and push with both thumbs.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rashid11:
Here's how to do it properly.

Hold the phone, using both hands, between index fingers and thumbs, so that the thumbs are just above the silver (engraveable) strip in the back. Bring the thumbs in toward the center line of the phone.

Angle your index fingers a bit, so that the pressure is applied not at the screen but the edges of the device. Curl the index fingers so that the upper half of the fingers are pointing toward your body and are positioned alongside the edges of the device.

Now, with your thumbs, push in and up. It helps if fingertips are nice and dry :)

I get the very same feeling of just how fragile it seems to be when trying to pop the cover off :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danguyf:
This is not a problem I've ever had. It just slides off; what the heck are you people trying to do to your poor battery covers? ^_^
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stea1thmode:
Harry, it's only a problem for the original poster;)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grainysand:
Guess I'm just a clumsy ****. It kind of moved a little bit when I tried what you guys said, but otherwise unless I'm willing to go at it with my nails, I should probably ask someone else to do it.

On the other hand, no dust under my screen! The tightness of the battery cover might as well be why. :p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbob_me:
I find sticking your fingernail in the little slot where the speaker is and dragging back from there helps. I also get the feeling im going to crack the screen when im pressing hard on the phone, its scary stuff!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nDrg:
Try this, hold your phone in your left hand facing down with your index finger and thumb just on the sides of the phone just above the capacitive buttons. Then place the ball of your right palm on the back of the cover and push up while applying a little force, it should open pretty easily.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grainysand:
YES. This did the trick fantastically. It seems so simple now, I've no idea how I kept doing it wrong.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theartfullodger:

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grainysand:
I rarely, if ever, read manuals. :P But it's not as if I had trouble removing the battery cover the first day (especially since I had to do it several times as my SIM card was inserted the wrong way in).
[Touch HD General] jazor:
for some time now i'm using cooked roms by you guys, mostly nrg rom and am impressed by pushing the borders further and further, amazing work. anyways lately have seen development phone from nvidia tecra it has few procesors and a lot of stuff that i don't expect from htc hd but thing that got me thinking was that it was pre-loaded with 2 systems mac and windows so my qestion is? is it possible to have 2 system and chose between them when starting phone?
[Touch GSM General] dubberz:
Here is the problem.

Altough i get full signal, i can't make/receive calls.

If i make a call it disconnects and i can hear a string sound (similat to a guitar).

If i receive a call the voicemail answers.

I cant make calls like *100# or any other stuff.

I changed the Radio, from 2.97.xx to 3.34.90 (or similar) then downgraded to 3.21.90

Is this a virus?

After i make a soft-reset i can make a call, but after 2-3 minutes, i can't make anymore.

Please help.

Btw, i'm using Orange.

Thanks in advance.
[Touch GSM General] dubberz:
Please help
[Touch GSM General] nnph:
try to do a hard reset !
[Touch GSM General] captainstu72:
I'm also interested as to why you downgraded the radio? Did you get the issue on the 3.34 version? If not, can you not just put that back on?

I'd try hard reset before anything else like nnph said.

Stu
[Touch GSM General] ironjon:
I had the same problem with an Orange SIM and the solution was simple.

I had a card SIM of 32k, I changed it for another 64k and problem solved.

Orange charged me 5 euros for the duplicate card, that's all.
[Touch GSM General] nnph:
in order to get to the bottom of this you should try:

1.if you consider the sim to be the problem: put the sim into another phone, see if that works

2.if you consider the phone to be the problem: try a hard reset! think if you had the problem before/after radio upgrade? if hard reset not working then try a different rom/radio.

If none of the above works for you than start to take into consideration a hardware problem, which I really doubt !!
[Touch GSM General] dubberz:
Ironjon, did you had the exactly same problems?

I also have Cosmote, but it was doing that only when i had weak signal.

In other phone is working.

But i think it's sim's card fault. I only paid for the phone 25 E, it had broken speaker, i had someone to repair it for free. I'm not very upset if it not works, at least i can keept it for wi-fi and games.
[Touch GSM General] ironjon:
Yes, I had the same problem.

I tried with 3 SIM cards of 32k and did not work with any.

I tried with some SIM cards of 64k and works fine with all.

Sry - if its not the right section for my question !! Please move if it is so.

Have flashed the new Villain 3.3 ROM thanks - i like it :)

But one Question - is it possible to get copilot working with it ? Walking through installation without problems. But when I start Copilot it says something like:

The system couldn't load Copilot-Code

What I'm doing wrong - or is Copilot not compatibel with Android 2.1 ? Please help :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Fisgaz:
use Ndrive
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] spunkey:
I think - I will test another ROM. Thanks for ur advice !
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pina_:
copilot is not compatible with android 2.0
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] alti4:
That's not the point as we're talking about 2.1. But anyway, I think you're wrong: my version of CoPilot works flawlessly on my HeroDroid-Rom (which is built on the same Eris leak as Villain).

So, maybe it's a specific problem with Villain, but definitely not with Android 2.1
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] spunkey:
Thanks for your answere - I will try to get it work - however ... :confused: btw which Copilot Version do you use ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Bram77:
I'm using iGo, which runs great on 3.3 and is a better navigation system in my opinion.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] alti4:
CoPilot 8 from the Market (Full EU). Bought it under the old 1.5-Rom version, made a backup with Titanium Backup and restored it under Android 2.1.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HomerSp:
It says on their site that they have Nexus support, so it should work in 2.1. You may have to update to the latest version though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] andy9:
I have no problems with Copilot under Villain 3.3. Had it reinstalled from the market after flashing.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] spunkey:
iGO just works - I don't know why Copilot wan't do ...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] anarchyuk:
Strange, I get the same error!

I think you need version 8.0.0.606
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xTuX:
Maybe you should uninstall it and reinstall it from the market instead of using titanium backup, 2.1 is a lot different than 1.5 and it may be that titaniumbackup can not restore the settings from an 1.5 rom to a 2.1 rom properly.

IMHO you should not restore your settings from 1.5 roms to 2.1 ones as many things have changed and you can easily break your system and then you will have to flash it again in order to get it working. I've had that experience, I restored 1.5 settings to 2.1 and all I got were force closes of sense and this and that. Selectively the restore works but I dont recommend it..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] foxmeister:
Don't know where you got that from, but my Copilot works perfectly with Villain 3.3 (Android 2.1).

Regards,

Dave
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] alti4:
I used Titanium Backup for all the self-installed software and I had not one single FC (and as mentioned earlier, it also worked flawlessly with CoPilot). But I never restored any system settings from 1.5, I think that it what leads to your crashes.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] anarchyuk:
sorted mine, updated to 8.0.0.507 and its working again!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xTuX:
yip, I know, as I said, it works if you select certain things that dont have much to do with the system itself. my problem was also that the apps didnt appear in the market so they dont update as easy - for me its best to do a clean setup, it takes some time but it almost always works safer and better

No i didnt install anything alongside swype...and yes, i tried a soft reset, but no joy. I gave up and did a hard reset...

after the hard reset i installed it again...and it works fine now!

sorry for my bad english i'm brazilan. i need help.

I'm install the rom Villain 3.3 in my htc hero but my phone stopped in android logo and don't pass for the htc sense. i'm waiting for several minutes and not happening.

i wipe after the flash rom. i don't know what happening.

please i'm new with this phone its my first flashing rom.

Thx for all!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] hillywillybilly:
sd card

Sounds like its most likely your SD card. Backup everything off it onto computer, then format it, get rid of all partitions for eg. App2sd just to be safe, then put update file on SD card again, full phone wipe, dalvik cache wipe, and you should be ok. Mess about with app2sd once your bit more experienced.

Hill.

I do not have a ext partition on my SD card and I am to stuck on the Android logo.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xTuX:
Are you new to flashing custom roms? the first boot can take a while fyi

do a full wipe and wipe the dalvik cache before you flash the 3.3 rom

it must be that you didnt flash it properly, the 3.3 rom boots without problems on the hero :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] e.japonica:
wipe/factory reset

wipe dalvik

wipe/factory rest

off

boot recovery

flash

reboot

setup

reboot

done!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ngk_dk:
Nope... I'm not new to flashing ROM. Almost flash to the level where I need to in an Anonymous Flash-oholics group.

I did do a full wipe and wipe the dalvik cache before I flashed the 3.3 rom.

I also re-flashed, tryed wipeing before and after, wiped the dalvik cache before and after...

The reason I do not have a ext part on my SD is, that I do not install so many applications, that I run out of space. And the speed of the internal mem is alot faster.

For keeping my apps between flashs, I find titanium back to be the best solution.

Is a ext part need to run the 3.3? I ran almost all the other villain rom version, without a ext part.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lumumba_ger:
Hey,

I also have problems installing 3.3 ROM. I have a running 3.2 VillainROM but 3.3 will just not install! I did factory/ rest wipe + Davlik wipe but stuck @ bootscreen again! I do have a ext3 (or 2) partition which I did not flash, but the installing of 3.2 worked fine so I guess its a problem with 3.3...

As many cooks already have Sense 2.1 messaging cooked into their roms (newest energy, valkyrie etc.), I would like to have it cabbed up ^^

[Windows Mobile Software Development] JohnVanDeWaeter:
Hi All,

I have written a Windows Mobile application named PouchHiker that connects to a network in which participants can locate carpoolers and hitchhikers.

The application is written in Freepascal/Lazarus. It works on the emulator, on my HTC-Paharos and on a Samsung Omnia. In my neighbourhood there are not many Windows Mobile devices, so I'm pretty curious if the software works on other devices. And of course, being here between pro's, I'm also curious what people think of the user-interface.

The idea of carpooling/hitchhiking using GPS is explained on gps-carpool.net and my software can be found at pouchhiker.com (download and description).

Sorry, real links where not allowed as I am a too new here...

It requiers a Windows Mobile device with GPS-receiver, touchscreen and internet-connection (NOT from cradle or ActiveSync, as the program uses UDP which is not handled by ActiveSync).

Make sure NO proxyserver is selected in the connectionsettings. Proxies usually do not transfer UDP-traffic.

Looking forward for suggestions/comments!

tia!

John
[HD2 General] DeoreDX:
First off I love my TP2. Best phone I have ever owned. But the HD2 looks really really great and I see the term "Best Windows Mobile Phone ever" touted a lot in several reviews. So perhaps you former TP2 owners now that you've had the phone a while can help me decide if it's worth it to upgrade over the TP2. I know people complain about the HD2's battery but I make it through a normal day with 40-50% left on my TP2, so I'm hoping battery isn't an issue. How is the bulk of the phones compare? I use a ultrathin SENA slipcase and keep my phone in my pocket, but the TP2 is so much thicker then the HD2. So you former TP2 owners do you regret going to the HD2 or is it a well worthwhile upgrade?
[HD2 General] weenween:
I own both these phones. I love both phones. Actually, I love TP2 better for work -- the battery life, the ease of data entry. As for HD2, I love the big screen especially. In fact, it is a VERY difficult choice for the two. That is also why I kept both. :)
[HD2 General] johnk1973:
The much better GPS is worth it alone. The autofocus on the camera is a lot quicker too. Most programs start up super fast due to the processor. Best move i ever made.
[HD2 General] kr00t0n:
I've had both, and whilst I was happy with the TP2 when I had it, I could never go back. The HD2 is just SO much smoother and fun to use, so much so that I don't mind the lack of a hardware keyboard (my 5 previous phones all had proper keyboards).

The HD2 is a glorious machine, and I am chuffed I got £270 for my TP2, lol!
[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
wait untill a new wp7 series phone is released and keep your tp2 for business ,never upgrade to hd2 now , it is over with it
[HD2 General] lorin.bute:
Ok, let me tell you :)

In just a couple of hours after purchasing the HD2...i just couldn't stand the TP2. Its so much better than the TP2. If you don't text that much, the HD2 is your best choice. Its incredibly thin, the screen is WOW, its pocketable, its so much faster than the tp2 and you don't have to worry about ram memory. I used to use clean ram and schedule it every 3 hours or so. With the hd2 i always have enough ram.

Trust me, its a no brainer. Go and get it (unless the keyboard is really important to you).
[HD2 General] DeoreDX:
I've found with the big TP2 screen I hardly ever used the hardware keyboard any more. Only other thing I worry about is the accuracy of the capacitive screen when trying to use older programs designed for a stylus. But I don't use a lot of those and not very often (mostly to reg edit, etc).
[HD2 General] kilrah:
I don't have a TP2, but I can comment on WHY I didn't get one when it would have been the logical upgrade path for me seen my long history of phones with hardware keyboard, yet got the HD2 as soon as I saw it in real life.

Firstly when I had the TP2 in my hands it really felt like a brick. Large, thick, heavy. Felt like there was a lot of "lost space" (between the keyboard keys, around the screen, that "zoom bar" I'd never find a use for)...

Secondly the speed, it didn't change me from my usual winmo experience that had always been a bit disappointing. As usual, it can do a lot of stuff, but not smoothly. It did show some improvement over my current device (Kaiser), but nothing exceptional.

The HD2 is a whole other story. As soon as you have it in the hand it feels good, perfectly designed, comfortable... the thin form factor and thin borders around the screen make it feel not like a brick of a device that has a screen to interact with, but more like an "intelligent screen" with just what's needed to hold it together, you forget the actual shell. Hard to describe by words. Then the speed, this is now a world of difference, everything is smooth and responsive, nothing in common with any other winmo device before. Then the capacitive screen, which is also a major difference and big step towards that "intelligent screen" feeling, moving things around barely touching the screen etc...

Fell in love right away and sold a bunch of unused things I had laying around in less than a week to buy it.

Yes the lack of hardware keyboard is noticeable, close keys, no tactile feedback so you don't notice when you "slip" to the neighbour key, eats half of the screen when the onscreen keyboard is out... but I must say it's not all that bad. I definitely wouldn't type a book on the HD2, but anyway I don't think I would have on a TP2 either ;)

Just remember that it like any winmo device it needs tweaking to get the best out of it, a small but extremely noticeable one being opera, browsing the web with the default settings is laggy and ugly, while with the 50fps tweak it's perfectly smooth and changes the experience completely. And more of course.

Conclusion, just try one in a store near you, I doubt you'll resist very long ;)
[HD2 General] brynweb:
I loved my TP2 for the sharp display, and excellent in-call sound quality. The HD2 is WAY better with GPS locks, and overall snappiness and operability. One of my favourite features of the HD2 is the dual LED flash. The fact that I couldn't use the TP2 camera in low light was annoying - The HD2 makes photography/video and uploading to social networks a breeze.

The speakers on the HD2 are a bit ****e tbh, but that's a sacrifice I'm happy to live with. Don't care about losing the hw kb, it's actually fun to learn with the on-screen kb and after 2 weeks I think I'm quicker on it.

Also worth mentioning that the stock ROM is pretty damn good too.
[HD2 General] willgill:
My company would pay for a TP2, but instead I spent my own money on an HD2. I've had a TP and friends with TP2. It all comes down to how addicted you are to a hardware keyboard.

If you turn on T9 (essentially spellcheck) and get the hack to turn email sideways, typing on the HD2 is pretty easy and fast. As others would say, I only rap out txt and email on it. If I need to type anything lengthy, I use a laptop.

The HD2 is just fluid. It's press and go. Scrolling is slippery quick. Copilot GPS locks in a snap and scrolls smoother than my TomTom. When screens don't slide quite as smooth as usual, I'll open up TaskMgr to find a screen full of apps I've left open.

Form factor is like holding a picture frame to your head. It's a little awkward at first but the thinness I got used to immediately.

Dual flash camera is great. Presence sensor is SO welcomed. Call clarity is great. Bluetooth reconnects much faster for some reason. And standardized 3.5mm headphone jack and micro USB port.... 'bout time.
[HD2 General] hoss_n2:
let your company pay for tp2 and you get both
