this change to the registry is to increase the number of shortcuts in Internet and not to increase the number of photo shortcuts in people cub.

While the file that you posted show only the photo shortcuts in 4x4 but they are always 15.

I wanted something as requested mano 75
[HD2 General] giacominos:
hi, do you know if is possible to add christians holidays to htc calendar?

thank you :)
[HD2 General] Mano75:
Just insert them from Outlook. According to your Country they'll be automatically inserted. If you're missing an specific day, just add it manually.
[HD2 General] giacominos:
Thank you , It worked like a charm :)

I've spent several hours over the last few days on the web trying to find an answer to the above...

Does anyone know of a app - freeware, shareware or commercial that can be used to backup, restore and/or export MMS messages from a WM6.5 device?

I want to upgrade my handset but don't want to loose the MMS messages on the device. I have used Sprite Backup for the SMS messages but am really having problems with MMS?

PIM Backup suggests it will do MMS, however, notes on the site say that the MMS doesn't work?

Help!

Andy.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
Try Microsoft Myphone.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] akirkby:
As far as I am aware, MyPhone does not support MMS at this time?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] sonic9:
no mms aren't supported by myphone ... backup'd as blank sms ...

Sprite Backup support fully mms/sms backup/restore.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] akirkby:
No luck with SpriteBackup - I've had a support call open with them and they say "SpriteBackup is not guarenteed to backup/restore MMS"
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] fighter7139:
You can also try: Spb backup, resco backup and sktools.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] whistler4ever:
I've used SPB backup and it restores mms' as well! I dont know abt the others.
[HD2 General] fracmo2000:
Just upgraded to an hd2, how did I live without this massive screen :D

I have been busy installing radios,roms and apps since I got it...but I cant find the answers to the following...any ideas;

1) Opera + Flash

I have Opera10 installed, I see people mention that you can enable it? How? Im using NRGs latest rom (Cookie Home Screen)...i prefer opera to skyfire...would it be easier going back to an older version?

2)

When moving the slider, the background is kinda blacked out a little...but the slider (bg) stays bright. I seen a mod that tints the slider but leaves the icons bright...now I cant find it again. Anybody know what Im talking about?

3)

I want to clear the bg of the taskbar (just icons left) so I can see more of my bg (Also so when it locks I dont have a black bar at the top)...but I want to leave the soft keys at the bottom black (im using win 6.5.x)

4)

Like I said in 1)...Im running NRGs rom...does the accelerometer not make sense landscape in all tabs?

Any help would be great, thanks in advance!
[HD2 General] fracmo2000:
Thought i would bump this incase anybody could help :D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Gibla:
Hi Guys,

I'm in big troubles....

my Universal died after a radio upgrade....so I need to flash it again with another Rom.

The problem is that the power button is phisically...it's un-solded :(

That's the question: there's a way to enter in bootloader without pushing power button and without the possibility to execute something from the mobile phone?

I tried to HR (soft key + reset) I get the white screen, I push 0...then nothing!

BLACK SCREEN!!

HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] RickEphraims:
Read up on ABD using Android SDK.

You can push commands through to your phone

I have no volume controls so I know how you feel.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] -Jonny-:
I'm trying to think back. Doesn't it switch to bootloader if you start to flash (when you have active sync connected).

Otherwise you may have to find the solder tags for the power button and short them to perform the switch to bootloader.
[Hero CDMA General] HERNANDEZ4LIFE:
Im getting this error and force close on one of my Heros when I try installing any of my apps on any of the 2.1 roms. Im coming from Fresh 1.1 and following the same procedure I used on my other Hero on which the market is fully functional. Ive wiped everything over and over and cleared data on anything that looked like it at to do with the market. I also tried fix apk mismatches from recovery. Short of RUU which Id like to avoid if at all possible Ive tried everything else I can think of. In searching I have come across this error code on other android phones, but nothing on the hero and nothing specific to trying to install apps. So has anyone else seen this? And would RUU do anything a full data wipe didnt already?
[Hero CDMA General] wcgbmd:
Reading instructions has its benefits grasshopper...

Download the latest recovery and throw it onto your SD Card, boot into the old version of recovery and flash the new recovery as a .zip update, reboot into recovery again and then wipe your phone again, then install android 2.1, don't reboot yet, make sure your rom either has it's own custom kernal or download one for 2.1 and flash it, open up adb and clear dalvik cache and boot cache, then reboot your phone and you should load without any problems.
[Hero CDMA General] HERNANDEZ4LIFE:
Thanks. But I did that from the get go. Aside from flashing a kernal, but Im running Darchtrev2 on the fully functional Hero that I mentioned and thats got a custum kernal built into the rom. So thats what I started with on the second one using the exact same process without success. Does wiping from adb do more than wiping from recovery? Thats one other thing I didnt do after the initial install.... But do understand you correctly that you have seen this specific error before?
[Hero CDMA General] HERNANDEZ4LIFE:
Just bumpin the tread in hopes of finding a solution. I dont even mind gettin flamed for asking a stupid question if I could get linked up with a fix! lol I see its getting views, just no ideas I guess... It sucks cuz everything else works fine except the market. I get the list of my downloads, when I tap on one to install I the download button instead of the install button, so Ill tap on it and I get get the progress bar saying its downloading. When it gets to 100% I get the error and force close... Anyone?
[Hero CDMA General] wtphoto:
I would try wiping again then flashing fresh 1.1 see if that boots and everything works ok then I would redownload the recovery and flash that still running fresh then reboot make sure everyhting is cool, then redownload whatever 2.1 rom you want and wipe and flash.

doing this serves 2 purposes

1. make sure that somewhere along the line none of the files corupted

2. if you still have the same problem then it will let you know where the problem is coming from.

just process of elimination

if you still have problems after that then I would say RUU, yes it is different than just wiping from recovery as it restores a completely stock image and gets rid of everything else. all a data wipe really does is get rid of user data.

just my opinion.

honestley thinnking about it I RUU'd my phone just for giggles then I re-rooted and then flashed DCv1 right from stock and I found that a lot of the little bugs that people where seeing I wasnt so it may not be a bad idea to ruu anyways.
[Hero CDMA General] HERNANDEZ4LIFE:
Thanks for the reply and for giving me something different to try. I hadnt thought about trying that. Frustration I guess! It makes sense though. Ill give it shot. Thanks!
[Hero CDMA General] willy900wonka:
Why not see why it fc'd?

Adb with logcat of ...vending....

Find the syntax here: http://developer.android.com/search.html

Just an idea. It may or maynot give you the insight to fix the cause ( like a parameter ...vending... is null fetching on ).
[Hero CDMA General] HERNANDEZ4LIFE:
Yeah, Ive been thinking about RUU'n too just to see if making a fresh start would make any difference, but after all the time I spent getting the one Hero working like I want on 2.1 and the troubles Ive had with the second and what Ive read about people bricking trying to RUU or flash recovery Ive been kinda hesitant....
[Hero CDMA General] HERNANDEZ4LIFE:
Thanks. I dont know that Im quite that knowledgable though. Im sure I could read a logcat... understanding what the hell I would be reading is something else again. Saving the url though in case I need to dig deeper. Thanks for the reply.
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
Sometimes it's just fun to RUU and do everything again :p
[Hero CDMA General] wcgbmd:
Alright if you're still having problems then just follow these steps:

Boot into recovery and make a nandroid back up just in case something goes wrong.

Download the latest version of your current 2.1 rom and reflash it from Recovery.

Open up adb and mount the /data directory (adb shell, mount /data)

Enter the following two commands in adb: rm -r /data/boot-cache , rm -r /data/dalvik-cache

Go Back to ADB and type the following commands: cd /data/data/com.android.vending , rm -R cache

Fix UID Mismatches using the tool in Recovery and then reboot your phone
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
or NOT! :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA General] HERNANDEZ4LIFE:
Thanks again for your help all. I ended up just RUU'in . I'm with fixxer... fun isn't how I'd describe it! Anyway, I got it all working just to find out its got the mms issue now... if its not one thing its another. Oh well, something for me to work on tomorrow! Thanks again for the replies and advice.
[Hero CDMA General] wcgbmd:
You should have updated to the latest ruu...
[Hero CDMA General] HERNANDEZ4LIFE:
The latest RUU? I used the 1.56..... I did get it working tho. Flashed the mms. fix zip. Just wasn't expecting to have to as I didn't with my other hero. Don't know what the difference is between the two devices. Both are google branded, but the second one fought me every step of the way.
[Hero CDMA General] orris:
First, sorry for the bump.

I just started getting this error and wanted to know if you figured out exactly what it was so I didn't have to go through that whole RUUing process. Thanks.
[Hero CDMA General] boredmug:
don't know if this is your problem, but i know on sushi rom you have to go to manage applications, market, click on it and then click on uninstall updates.. Then apps. will download and install correctly.
[Hero CDMA General] orris:
You're the bomb. That worked like a charm.
[Hero CDMA General] DirtyShroomz:
Cant believe nobody wrote this first
[Hero CDMA General] seyer0686:
I was having the same problem on DC a couple days ago and that fixed it for me. I was reading this thread wondering why no one had mentioned it yet.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
I just received mine this morning though no box and 4 days before initial release and will post final ROM, Radio and many photos once I get it fully charged etc. This is the real deal and the day is almost here for all of you anxiously awaiting the official release on Wednesday, the 24th.
[HD2 General] mystik610:
How'd you get it so early?

I've been going to multiple t-mobile stores throughout the week...even the independent authorized dealers who usually bend the rules a bit, and they're all saying the 24th. Some are saying the 25th.
[HD2 General] suavecito1177:
Yes please tell me how you got yours early. When I found out the release date, I went down to every store by me and they all said the same thing, be here at 10am on the 24th. Even called T-mobile and told me the same thing. Whats your secret bro? Share the wealth.
[HD2 General] coburn_c:
haha, his first post and its an article on pocketnow.com, gee how lucky :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] don_sefer:
Does the T-Mobile HD2 also has this diagonal lines and dots on the display

like the normal HD2?
[HD2 General] Fuse8499:
hahahaha pwn3d!!!
[HD2 General] KKBII:
I don't like people taking shots at me because it was my first post and this is totally 100% legit says t-mo right at the top of the display and I was also the first person to have the Telstra T9193 so know it very well. No secret and never even went through t-mobile. I SAW AN AUCTION THAT OPENED ON EbAY ON THE 15TH YET CLOSED ON THE 16TH AFTER THE PERSON RECEIVED SO MANY RIDICULOUS QUESTIONS HE CLOSED IT. BEING VERY PERSISTENT AS IS MY NATURE I sent him an e-mail and then being cautious asked him to call me and we spoke for about 30 minutes he shipped yesterday and I had it first thing this morning.

Alot of T-Mobile crapware as per usual so as soon as I take photos shortly for all of you to prove I have this device I will flash my mans dutty's latest rom and then this device will fly.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
HERE THEY ARE T-Mobile LEO Photos

Here are 4 fairly clear photos I hopefully just uploaded correctly.
[HD2 General] Peew971:
Would be nice if any of you who got it early could contribute to this thread, I remember the OP hoping for a way to get his hands on the TMOUS SD card. The games and Transformers movies who be nice to share :p.

This has nothing to do with actual HD2 shipments from T-Mo.

Pocketnow suxors :(
[HD2 General] macetex:
I got mine on Wed , but I work for T-Mobile.:D
[HD2 General] kameleongt:
my buddy works at an actual tmo store and they've had a demo phone for about a week but he hasnt said anything about having any in stock, ill uplload some pics later today. he also said they were getting a limited number roughly around 20
[HD2 General] CYDVicious:
What version of Opera does it come with? 9.x with Pinch to Zoom, or 10 and how's the FM Radio?

I put my name on a List at two of the local tmobile stores. The bigger store said they would get abou 16 units in, they also had a demo unit but wouldn't let anyone touch it.
[HD2 General] macetex:
I went to one of the launch events and they gave me one.:D. It is right next to me is i type. The only thing I don't like is the market, and I can't install many outside apps because of the screen size and resolution. But it is a monster.
[HD2 General] theGross1:
I'm playing with one at work now and they are massive.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
No, the screen appears perfect to me at least on my unit.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
You really need to learn to turn macro mode on on your camera...
[HD2 General] MartinXDA:
I think that's got more to do with the technology the device uses (capacitive multi-touch screen) rather than some carrier releated customizations (even hw ones like the expanded rom size on the hd2's t-mo version) ;)
[HD2 General] rickyoon.vegas:
I hate you so much, Topic Creator.

I was doing fine dealing with anticipation.

I hate you so much.
[HD2 General] mazzarin:
Muahahahah! We should have a US-based HD2 owner meetup, take pictures, and post the fun before USTM officially releases the phone.
[HD2 General] Jaxbot:
I really want to buy one, but I'll probably have to wait until the official date, since I don't have any in-store contacts ;)

Question though: How hard would it be to unlock? (I'm stuck with AT&T for now)
[HD2 General] :
yeah I went in to my store and they had 2. I couldn't see them of course, but the dumbphone replica was sexy as hell.

The guy I talked to at my store said they'l lhave plenty for me to come in during the afternoon and pick one up. Thank god for off periods :D
[HD2 General] :
I'm sure it'll be easy.
[HD2 General] skylinepigeon:
Are you able to confirm that there is actually a size difference between the US version and the European version? I was about to order a screen protector/case now...
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
There is none. Its the same phone. Just different 3G bands, and logo. :cool:

EDIT: I may be wrong.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
People thread o.p here. Time to put this thread back on track.

Yes, if bought no contract all htc devices ever ivented, I have owned them all, are unlocked to begin with . Just pay the $455.00 no contract price and your good to go yet obviously only edge for data.

2. All of you asking silly questions about release dates, stores inventory can I get it early just don't get it. It does not matter if you are on a list for the old adage applies here 1st come, 1st served ,and it does not matter at all if your on a list at all. I need to make this clear to all of you.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
The HTC website even list them at different sizes... the US version is 1.5mm taller according to them.
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
I saw the differences on the HTC site but is there an actual difference?
[HD2 General] KKBII:
Yes, surprised even me owning both devices the t-mo and Telstra version t9193. The t-Mo version is clearly taller and in a bad way imho fatter than the uk and telstra versions. I have them side by side now and the difference is very visable im their sizes.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
How big of difference is there? It's not only taller, but fatter too? Can you maybe take a few pics of them next to each other and post them? Is there a difference in the size of the glass area on the front, making a need for different screen protectors?
[HD2 General] KKBII:
Yes, it is clearly both taller and much fatter, chubby compared to my other hd2. No wonder when I got it this morning it felt heavier. Photos side by side in the morning for going to bed now.
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
That sucks... I spent almost $100 on my case and screen protector:( Thank you for offering to post pics in the morning... can you please show them side-by-side from different angles?
[HD2 General] :
it's still incredibly slim. don't let this guy mess with you...:P
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
My biggest problem is I already ordered a screen protector and case that may not fit correctly if there is size differences. .case would probably be fine if it was just slightly taller, but if it's wider or fatter, it probably won't fit right.
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
I think its just taller to fit the T-Mobile logo. . .And the specs on htc only show the difference of the tallness not the width.
[HD2 General] ibeQuint:
correct +1

I was just about to say that.
[HD2 General] Playa4Life352:
I've had mine for a week... Official USA T-Mobile HD2.......

It's not what you know, but WHO you know...
[HD2 General] patanello:
so..how about the amount of RAM and ROM? actually 576mb and 1gb? rom version?
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
Yep.

Curse you 10 char limit lol.
[HD2 General] ASM3:
The US T-mobile version is taller, I know first hand. I purchased some silicone gel cases last week on Amazon, got them on Friday, went to the T-mobile store on Saturday to see if they fit. No, they do not fit. We'll have to wait and see if T-mobile offers any decent cases (I want a silicone gel case with a lanyard hole like the one I have to now return) or any other retailer that will have cases long enough for this US version.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
I never said it was not thin. They both are incredibly thin and light and fit very comfortably in the hand. However, the T-MO Version is as you can see from my photos side by side and from many angles is SLIGHTLY TALLER, NOT MUCH, AND WIDER.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
Photos digital macro this time telstra/t-mo hd2's

As promised first thing in the morning here are several photos of the 2 hd2's side by side. If they are still not clear enough for all of you I will keep taking them till I get it right. I am not good at taking photos. LOL.
[HD2 General] DeoreDX:
The Tmobile version comes packaged with a Gel case. Does it not have a lanyard hole?
[HD2 General] mystik610:
Use Macro mode on your camera
[HD2 General] zarathustrax:
Yeah, they are pretty blurry.... macro mode would help.
[HD2 General] zelduy:
whoah.. is the TMobile US comes with WM6.5.x??

cant wait for the rom if it does.. :)
[HD2 General] KKBII:
I was using macro mode I swear and now am feeling stupid. tell me exactly what to do and i will try and make them much clearer. canon sd1100.
[HD2 General] jdlorinser:
Wow, thanks for trying, but those were some pretty bad pictures. Take the pictures with the light On in the room. How else are we supposed to see the difference in size? Also take a picture looking straight down on both phones. Thanks.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
More Photos hopefully clear enough for you all.

This time I used digital macro mode then auto and they seem pretty clear to me.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
Still more and more photos to follow.

I am very persistent and will get this right eventually.
[HD2 General] DeoreDX:
Press the button that looks like a little flower. Also more lighting will help. And put them against a smooth solid colored background so the camera doesn't back focus. A lighter color background would help your camera meter better.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
still more. thanks deoredx for the tips. will implement.

I might eventually get this right and will go into my living room with much better lighting and take more. Also, find the little flower. thanks for your help now i think it will work.
[HD2 General] skylinepigeon:
Hmmm thats really odd, it seems to me that the Tmobile screen is wider, especially in the last pic you just posted.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
It does appear this way but they are both 4.3 inches. No difference.

@all, can i finally stop taking photos now or are some of you still not satisfied? the last 2 sets i thought were good enough yet far from perfect. will do more if you all want.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
hopefully last set of photos at least for now.

Well all think these last 2 are close to what you want. we shall see with your comments.
[HD2 General] MirasHD2:
So screen protectors should fit fine, but the cases that I bought won't. :mad::(
[HD2 General] lepszy:
It might help if you take a picture from a greater distance with max resolution and auto mode with good light and then just crop it using photoshop or any other software. That is if you not already fed up ;)
[HD2 General] KKBII:
Got it and No I am not fed up. Just frustrated for I too see my results and am not pleased. I do need to take several hrs off though for tired of photo taking for now, but mid aft look for more and with your advice and deoredx hopefully all will turn out well.

Shortly, since I know your all curious I will share all of the extra ROM APP'S T-MO included in the ROM, THE ROM DATE, ROM AND RADIO AND OF COURSE THE MEMORY.

Of note, the official name for this device when connected the the wm device center is simply T-Mobile LEO. Without the actual box my hands are somewhat tied here but underneath the battery and in settings- About the number is T-MOBILE T5160.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
Done. Clear photos finally both hd2's i think.

I think these are the clearest by far and the last 2 are of the t-mo and telstra hd2's on top of each other to give you a better idea hopefully of the small size differences.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
These are the final one's for now.
[HD2 General] lbhocky19:
hey did you have any issues with texts coming in saying they were from a day ago?

it happened to me between midnight and 1 am the last 2 nights only with certain contacts
[HD2 General] skylinepigeon:
http://pocketnow.com/thought/t-mobile-hd2-vs-htc-hd2-comparison

much clearer photos :)

no offense to OP
[HD2 General] KKBII:
No, so far in the past 30-36 hrs with the device everything I have tried works perfectly.
[HD2 General] KKBII:
None taken well I am a little hurt but will get over it. I really feel stupid here and though hard for all of you to believe have taken very clear photos of my Telstra hd2 before yet for almost 2 days now can't remember what settings I used to do it. If I can't figure out before the night ends I am going to through caution to the wind and go to my local drug store where I have known the photographer since 20 yrs ago and have them professionally done for all of you. Yes, I will do this and they will blow away pocket now's photos. Lol.
[HD2 General] skylinepigeon:
I personally don't think that will be necessary. We all appreciate your efforts. Thanks for trying your best.
