[Desire Android Development] pipomolo42:
I don't know how it works on other devices, but on the Desire, I'm fairly certain it's the SPL that checks signatures, and you won't be able to boot a modded recovery... Unless it's possible to boot a recovery image without flashing it AND the SPL only checks the signature before flashing it, and not before booting from RAM.

Also, could someone explain me what this testkey is? From a quick forum search, it seems that it's a "publicly known" private key, that the community uses to sign system images and apps. Which means one also has to flash a patched recovery or SPL that contains the associated public key, otherwise images and apps signed with the testkey wouldn't be accepted by the phone.

Unfortunately, it seems much easier to find threads about "How To" to things on your phone, than threads about "What" you're actually doing on your phone when following these guides.

Edit: after a bit more of reading, it seems a lot easier : is the testkey the one generated during an android platform build ? So, basically, any key can be used for signature, then?
[Desire Android Development] philicibine:
you can boot a recovery without flashing it by using

fastboot boot your_recovery.img

can someone try this with a n1 recovery.
[Desire Android Development] SGTDavePwnage:
You are making a lot of assumptions...

Just because you could do a lot of things on a G1 doesn't mean you can still do them now.

HTC have since implemented spl protections that wont just allow you to boot anything unsigned via fastboot boot.

Ive got another desire coming tomorrow (I sold my first) so will give it a blast then for ****s and giggles, but as the spl changes were made on much earlier phones (htc sapphire and newer) I wouldn't hold your breath.
[Desire Android Development] philicibine:
look, i aint even got this device! im just tryin to help u guys root it, and ill help sum more when my phone comes thru.

your so quick to dismiss my opinion on your 'better' knowledge. u didnt even know about signatures!

im just tryin to help, and maybe u should try before your so quick to dismiss!
[Desire Android Development] SGTDavePwnage:
LMAO, who didn't know about signatures?

If you'd care to re-read the above posts, ive never mentioned anything about not understanding signatures.

and if your going to start a slagging match of who doesn't know things....Seems like you don't even know how to read

Like I said.... I will try it tomorrow (so I didn't dismiss your opinion).

I merely pointed out that HTC have started to put protections in place to stop exactly what you are suggesting

Maybe you should do some research on recent spl changes and "perfect spls'" before you start insulting others and then preaching about your fantastic (out of date) knowledge

Yes, i will TRY booting a recovery image from an N1 and thanks for trying to help
[Desire Android Development] SGTDavePwnage:
I have tested booting a recovery image via fastboot and it doesn't work. The SPL will not allow remote booting.
[Desire Android Development] philicibine:
was worth a try. wonder if flashrec wud work??
[Desire Android Development] SGTDavePwnage:
This is most likely not going to work either as htc have been putting security into place to stop flashrec.

I'm not saying it definitely wont work, I'm just not going to try flashing a recovery image designed for a different handset on my Desire.

I don't recommend anyone try installing a Nexus1 recovery image onto a desire. In the unlikely event that it does install, you have no way of knowing whether your Desire will even run a Nexus1 recovery image
[Desire Android Development] stupid3ish:
Yeah I've been trying all the things you guys have been trying, except for the N1 recovery. It's easy to get into the recovery. I just cant get the menu up, no matter what buttons i press. it is usually the camera button that display's it, but because there isn't one i just cant get the display up.

-PB99DIAG.zip

-PB99DIAG.nbh

-PB99IMG.zip

-PB99IMG.nbh

Perhaps some usefull info.

Greetings from a vastloper
[Desire Android Development] Jabbypants:
He is on holiday if I recall, he went last week for 2 weeks.
[Desire Android Development] Entee:
Did you get any answer to this?

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] litening:
PB99DIAG issue resolved.

Had the same problem.

Could not get to to the recovery screen for the life of me.

Found out that this issue is resolved by replacing the sdcard by a freshly formated sdcard.

And voila! Recovery screen!

Hope this helps people that are stuck with no way to getting back to recovery screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yellowfruit:
Howdy folks,

My company develops a web-based system that is accessed in the field through a mobile optimized web interface. We're currently having problems with the HTML rendering on the HTC Touch Pro2 device in Internet Explorer Mobile and were wondering if you folks could help!

The device is running Windows Mobile 6.5 with the latest ROM (1.90.61.0) available on the Orange (UK) network.

I've attached a zip (new user, can't post links) containing sample HTML and a screenshot of the WM6.5 emulator (WVGA Professional, 480x800) displaying the sample HTML. When I access the same HTML page with the HTC Touch Pro2, the box only displays over half of the screen. It almost seems that the text is either twice the size it should be, or the box is half the size.

We do have a client using another WM6.5 device which I believe is also not affected by this problem, which is a Toshiba TG01.

We're working to obtain a few more WM6.5 devices next to try and further pinpoint this problem but I was wondering if the folks here had any suggestions or had run up against this before?

I've had a search around for this issue but can't find anything other than a suggestion that the viewport in the registry is set too big but I've tried fiddling with that and it's made no difference, not to mention that it's the same as on the emulator.

Speaking directly to HTC about this problem they suggested using another browser. Although the device does come with Opera, we're not currently able to certify that our web interface will work with it. As these devices are used in the field by many different clients it's hard to make that kind of change for one client quickly.

I would love to hear if people have any suggestions as to a fix or have at least run up against this problem before.

Many thanks,

Matthew
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] yellowfruit:
Probably more useful if people can see what I'm talking about! I should also note that the sample code scales fine on WM5 and WM6 devices we have and has done for some time. This is, however, possibly the first high DPI device we have encountered.

Thanks all

Matthew

Enjoy
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exiilez:
Doesnt seem to work for me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] exiilez:
Ok I edited your files. In your txt document, your bitmap name was not the same name as the actual bitmap, so I changed it for you, I will put the Zip file as an attachment. So it now works fine.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dameon12:
This looks almost exact like the pad Hexjibber made. But i like the classic look too

I made a similar only to cover the ugly /sorry mate ;P) but best workin pad of hojlind and posted it in his thread.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lifeafter:
ow sorry i did edit the txt file but maybe i uplloaded the unedited one by mistake. thanks for fixing it for me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lifeafter:

[Windows Mobile Themes] randythered:
Hey,

Can anybody tell me where I can get the taskbar icons like the ones in this photo? They're the Opal's original ones. I got them in my first ROM somehow but since then I haven't been able to.. :S

Thanks!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone else is having this problem.

But i can not seem to keep a H Signal for very long before it keeps going back to 3G.

and it has only started happening since installing VillainROM 3.4!.

When i am on the net it works fine, but when i am not active for about 10seconds is drops connection..

and this is a real problem when i am using Soccer Centre and i have to come out the program and back in for it to active H again..

Anyone else having this issue?

Thanks

Marc
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ermacwins:
didnt need a thread to itself
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
I felt it did - cause i did not want it getting lost in the

7,417 Post and 792,965 Views of the other topic...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Lennyuk:
Works perfect for me

Flash the latest radio (my sig) if you have not already got it.

If you do then reflash it
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Phanes:
@Redpizzi

Please do NOT start new threads with Villain issues. PLEASE use the Villain thread.

Regarding to your issue, flash the latest radio again like Lenny said.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
Thanks Lennyuk, will try that...i have the latest rom, but will re-install it..

Like i am sat here and the icon is 3G - but when i load up internet or market then it changes to H, then if i leave it for a few mins it goes back to 3g....i thought i might have been a battery saving thing in the rom or in the 2.1 FW....

Thanks again

And Phanes / ermacwins. i got that answer i needed, and now other people dont have to look though 700 pages of posts to find the same answer if they have that problem.

So sorry if you dont like it but it is how i have done thing in forums for 20 years...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Phanes:
@Redpizzi

... didn´t know that there where forums and INTERNET in 1990 ...

I don´t think I want to give you a hand in the future ...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kendong2:
awesome, continue like that and ppl who are actually interested in DEVELOPING will have to go through 700 threads of noob mistakes before they find something interesting. and no, there was no internet 20 years ago. if you had at least 20 days of forum experience you might have learned to post in the correct section...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
Forums - are not just related to the internet -forums have been around for a long time people.

Phanes you never gave me a hand anyway...

I asked for some help and i got the help i asked for. Fine i should not have but VillainROM in the Thread - but when i posted in the Villain thread before about another problem it never got answered.

Job is a good one, just dont need people ermacwins/Phanes and the **** kendong2 trying to noob bash.

I dont give a **** how many posts you have done, i have been here since 2005 and help when i can no matter where the ****ing post is....

The main man Lennyuk gave me am answer and i will try that. if that does not work, then please just direct me to the right place, DONT start giving me **** for it.

END OF CURRENT THREAD - DELETE IF YOU WANT...

****ing hate people trying to noob bash.....
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kendong2:
so if you are that know-it-all guy that has done it all forever and before everybody else, why is it asked too much that you stick to the rules like everybody else does?

and for the record: you are the only one flaming around here, i for example never called anyone a **** around here.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
Yer i was flaming cause i asked for help and instead i got noob bashes trying it on..so dont piss me off again, and drop it.....no more slagging off the topic, will ask for help elsewhere

Now the problem has not been solved, so i am gonna try another rom to see if that has the same problem. i have even parked right next to my local Antenna.....

Thanks again Lennyuk
[Hero, G2 Touch General] starfarer:
Well not familiar with forum rules but agree with OP that it's nightmare to browse through all the posts when there are 50+ (most of them repetitive and useless) replies on single day.

and just realised that i added one now.........
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
well this topic is not repetitive not useless and if it was against the forum rules then i cannot see why..

260 views mean people are interested untill they find out omeone needs help.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nortynort:
tell me about it. Asked something earlier and the same two were right on queue, no help at all, complaining like I just shat in their cereal. There really is no need for that.

Obviously I'm new to these forums, but been around many other forums for years and years, when I read their response I was literally like oh here we go, I guess this is just another one of those elitist forums, full of mod wannabes and keyboard warriors. Thats until helpful people like lenny weighs in and restores some faith.

Let us know how you get on with reflashing the radio Redpizzi, I have this same "problem", I thought thats just how it was since I got the hero not long ago, and the internet was like that before I flashed it with a custom rom as well. Its minor though but would be good to get the best out of the phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kendong2:
your thread was moved by a mod and you still don't get it? so you are also resistant to learning?

well, i guess we have to blame your parents, for not raising you right. other kids have learned not to talk in between while adults are talking.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] awsy44:
you guys are so annoying, ive never seen such ganging on someone for simply a post, so cut the crap and either tell him wat he wants or not.

I've also had this issue and the latest radio hasnt resolved it either, I'm also having trouble with slow internet and reception cutting and coming back, ive tried all the 2.1 eris and legend roms and found that behero is the one with the least issues but still isnt all that perfect, i still get cut off sometimes and find no reception, so for the wifi aswell.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nortynort:
kendong2 fair enough if its was in the wrong forum, as im new here I thought something customrom related goes here in the development forum.

the mod moved the thread I thought nothing of it, you on the other hand must've thought it was a personal victory for you and thought it was the equivalent of a public spanking lol. Did you somehow think you were secretly pulling the strings by pointing it out?

Is your whole ambition to be a mod on here or something? just to point out where people are posting wrong and try to insult them lol. Just from a few posts I find it hard to believe that you have any friends. I wont be surprised if you're actually some 13 year old who gets bullied everyday at school and trying to get your power trip on the internet. Next thing you know you'll be pointing out spelling mistakes and missed capital letters. Get a life you loser cos this forum is obviously all you have. You really give this forum a bad name. you're on a phone forum but I doubt anyone ever rings your phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Phanes:
Just knock it off. It´s really enough now.

Why don´t you accept that WE how we care about those issues want to see the issues posted IN THE THREAD not somewhere else.

It is done for you guys, for those who have issues and not being able to help themselves.

And stop this passive/aggressive game.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nortynort:
fair enough phanes. he started getting personal first so could only return like for like.

but you do have to concede for new users some things on here are not just there in plain sight to be found out. Not just a simple search away. There's a 700 page thread and everything else is in technobabble. Its simple and intuitive for you cos you already know it. Its like telling someone to learn how to do keyhole surgery by just telling them to read a book. Not even a specific book, just "a" book.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kendong2:
yeah right, because it was me calling ppl a "****" around here. read my posts, i point people out where they are wrong, and usually offer help in the very same post. you are complaining that you can not learn if nobody explains it to you, yet when i explain what you did wrong you still complain. seriously dude, it is not that bad to make mistakes, and i never blamed anyone for that (prove me wrong otherwise!), but it is bad if you don't accept that you made a mistake and learn from it. the fact that about ten threads got moved from the dev section to general or q&a in the last week alone is proof enough that everybody is just posting whatever he wants whereever he wants. i don't think i am secretly pulling any strings (actually i don't even know what you are trying to say...?), and it was for sure not a personal victory, all i did was one neutral post about the thread being in the wrong forum. if you can not deal with critics about your behaviour then you shouldn't come to the internet. go to your gazillions of friends, if they support that behaviour. this is a community, and if it is asked too much from you to stick to the most simple, general rules (that apply to ALL forums on the internet btw!) you won't find people to be that helpful. and obviously you need help.

you have contributed absolutely zero so far, except spamming the dev forum and flaming around here, you think you make friends like that? if it wasn't for lenny and his endless patience you'd still be crying like a little baby whose toy is broken...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nortynort:
all i can say is yawn. someone who's so far up his arse thinking he's helping everyone they can't even see it. how exactly am I making mistakes and not learning from it? point it out specifically. Or is this "mistake" simply messing with the great "kendong2". In fact, point out specifically in this very thread or my thread where you offered ANY form of help besides giving condescending and snide remarks. neutral comment? HA. From what I can see you may have a 1000 posts but if its 1000 posts of this rubbish, my 14 posts already matched your "contribution"

I'm not even going to waste my time with you
[Hero, G2 Touch General] anarchyuk:
Its the MTV Generation i tells ya, they want it on a plate, with their facebebos and their mytwitters.. :p
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nortynort:
and the remark about lenny, how about its not because of his incredible patience, its because he's a normal human being and actually wants to help people having problems instead of getting his panties in a twist about ""ooo this noob is posting in the wrong forum, lets berate him instead of pointing them in the right direction, that way I could get a chubby, look superior and I could boost my post count too"
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Phanes:
@nortynort

Stop it. It is getting boring.

Hope nobody will offer you any hand in future. You have been asked polite and nice NOT to post outside the thread, but you give a damn **** about it.

Read the forum rules and let the dev section what it is supposed to be. Post your issues next time on the mensroom wall at the next train station!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] awsy44:
Development or Jerry Springer? thats the real question children
[Hero, G2 Touch General] kendong2:
see, that is your problem. you still don't get what you did wrong. but since you are actually wasting my time i'm gonna stop now.

and btw, it is not my fault that you are making it a competition how many posts who has, i never referred to that. or are you just jealous that my phone works, while yours doesn't?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] shenye:
Touché kendong
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nortynort:
go on then point it out specifically what like I asked.

I created one thread in the wrong section, it got moved. Fair enough. What else did I do besides getting your panties in a twist lol
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nortynort:
you know what you could piss right off too. As I said, I made ONE single thread a few days ago, first time on forum, didnt know which goes where it got moved and rightly so. What else did I post u bellend

funny how you and kingdong over there still think i'm in the wrong here on a separate thread when you two are being so rude to me and other members too and ignore that the only one who got personal first was the other bloke who somehow said I wasn't raised right cos I got a thread in the wrong section LOL. obviously you're two are just on each others nuts
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
Wow i am impressed at how this siimple ask for help has turned into a war.

Nice one and thanks for backing me up on this - about time someone stood up to the Mod wannabe's. and i had to do it - never thought i would have backup cheers nortynort.

Been a Mod on many forums, i love bollocking mod wannabes.......

Anyway - back to the topic - WHICH IS STILL IN THE PLACE I LEFT IT...

Radio Issues still seem to be the same, i know i have always had radio issues, so maybe it is the phone that is the problem - I have a White Hero on HTC, and it has been back to the shop before for radio issues, when it came back the radio was around average....started using the program Cell Viewer and that just tells me i have a good signal of 12 for HSDPA but it still stays on 3G - think i might try different radio versions.........

Anyone else have issues.....
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Redpizzi:
Arrrggghhhhhhhh this is annoying now - when the phone is not using the net the phone goes to 3G but when i want to use it then it changes to H - which is great in principle - but when you are trying to watch live commentry or use Mobile Sharing - it is pointless...

So glad that i am getting the Legend and the Desire in 2 Months... and if they still has problems then i am gonna have to get a IPHONE, and that is one thing i dont wanna do, but i need to have Football Commentry for the World Cup working.....
[Android Themes] pyrator:
Anyone know how to change the color of the active button in this case its the dailer (the text is grey) ALSO same problem on the date in the status bar??!? I have already tried colorchangerv3.jar and hex edited most of the knowen values in the xml status*.xml (offset 80 00 00 01 i think it was)

[Desire General] vegetaleb:
I found a portal of wholesalers and factories of China and Taiwan

some of them ask for a minimum of 50 pcs of Desire and a few accept to sale a single Desire.

I asked live to a saleswoman about if it's the real original and final HTC Desire and she told me yes.

She told me it will cost me 190$ + DHL and only 4 days delivery time :eek:

could this be real or it's a thief?
[Desire General] StuMcBill:
Sounds a bit suspect? Bit too good to be true?

Look for reviews of the wholesaler on Google and see if they are reputable?
[Desire General] vegetaleb:
I didn't like the way of payment: Wester Union :mad:
[Desire General] StuMcBill:
Western Union always smells like Scam!!!
[Desire General] vegetaleb:
It was so good to beleive I can get the Desire for 190$ :(
[Desire General] Carlo626:
suspicious

sounds very suspicius - probably it's just a look alike -I have seen many of them on the web for the diamond - diamond 2 etc.

ask if it support two sims - chinese phones usually do - and if it does it's sure a fake
[Desire General] vegetaleb:
Yes definitevely scammers

I googled the zip code and name they gave me

and they stole many people yet
