[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tsalta:
Hello i just flash one Lite ROM witch is very good and fast but some of the programs are removed i understand its a LITE rom but how you can remove the Windows Media Player from the Device? Its very stupid for few reasons.

The Default WMP is able to handle and play really have video files that no one player can do...

Also the camera can record mp4 files with are played by default with WMP again so even if i make a video clip i can`t watch it.. on the device.

I found all other apps like Cabs but i can`t find a way to install WMP?

My Question is can some Cooker make me a WMP cab from the latest build?

Also will be good if anyone upload me the latest TEETER game cab too.
[HD2 General] trunkamp:
Is there any way to get the Compass app. back on the phone without a hard reset.

Thanks in advance

Is anyone having any phantom screen problems?

Every so often but randomly if I leave my Leo on a surface with nothing near it that would trigger the screen it suddenly starts doing stuff! (like menus will open and select things, or the start menu will open and programs will be selected to run)

A bit freaky but wondered if anyone else had experienxced this? :confused:

I'm using Engergy ROM March 17 (23547)
[HD2 General] Tokolosh:
nope, not having any of that at all
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
there has been a post about this a while back and his hd2 was knackered
[HD2 General] xiamilo:
yes, quite a lot of times...i have the same problem as yours...no matter how many different roms I changed.
[HD2 General] dgsroadshow:
Yes mine does this sometimes !

but only when connected to mymobiler !!!
[HD2 General] targett:
Don't say that!!!
[HD2 General] fastie:
yes i have same problem
[HD2 General] fruchtfliege:
i had the same problem and got rid of it by installing a cab file from here. it was build to improve writing and reducing sensitivity. just at the moment i don't have time to search for it, but the thread name includes "3.3" because of the newest version of the cab.

i installed the cab without sensitivity decrease and it works like a charm! it improved writing with swype a lot and the bug you mentioned is gone!
[Hero CDMA General] abov3dis:
What's Your opinion,which is more usable,etc...
[Hero CDMA General] HeroMeng:
You need to try them out for yourself. Which one YOU like better is the ultimate choice for you.
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
both? depends on you...

But I like DamageControl personally. I just have a nand of my gutted MNS rom for a quick switch.
[Hero CDMA General] centran:
I was using DamageControl for awhile but I have to go with DarchLegend because the webkit works properly with apps that use webview.
[Hero CDMA General] trindy:
is there such a thing as a quick switch? Do you have to wipe everything to try another one?
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
I just boot to recovery and recover that image I have of another rom with MNS.. takes like 5 miuntes all together. The image I have is unlinked to any google account and is stripped of a lot, just meant for MNS and wireless tether.
[Hero CDMA General] magicalan:
i never knew how to get the latest version for the stock of android hehe
[Hero CDMA General] trindy:
I'm running (and loving) DamageControl but I think I'd like to see Darch's Legend version. The only thing is, I'm really not crazy about the idea of wiping all my settings again. :confused:
[Hero CDMA General] centran:
If you are using apps2sd then you might be able to do a quick switch. Make a nandroid backup and that will let you go back if you don't like the new ROM. The apps2sd will mean all your apps are still there.

However, sometimes you even have to wipe the apps off depending witch ROMs you are switching. If you get an app called Titanium Backup then you backup your apps and data. However, the free version makes re-installing a little bit of a longer process but it isn't bad.
[Hero CDMA General] scott2020:
Yes, that is a big selling point for me too. It seems Damage hasn't been active for several days. I'm sure he has a life and hopefully the ROM is still alive! I switched to DarchLegend for the webkit apps working right, Friendstream is cool too.
[Hero CDMA General] nimitz87:
backup using Titanium backup, or mybackup Pro.

also just make a nandroid backup incase it goes bad and you want to go back to a stable setup.

Chad
[Hero CDMA General] MotherMayI:
and also it saves your settings going from 2.1-2.1 so all your settings should be how you set them before :) <3 hooray for convenience!

and from my exp. (ive used both) i would say damage is a bit faster, but im going with darch because you will love the way it looks, has the glossy blackish look rather than just straight up stock. but althought i am experiencing a bit of lag, it will only be a matter of time before darch comes out with a fast enough rom :) and i can live with the tiny bit of lag that it does have, and i absolutely hate lag. but overall i chose darch, but i do appreciate the work of all you amazing dev's <3
[Hero CDMA General] nimitz87:
so Darch vs flipz 2.02b?

we should make a new thread and have a poll with these main 2.1 builds....

Chad
[Hero CDMA General] Tierez:
I'm back on Damage, DarchLegend went a little insane for me, four times over, no idea what went wrong, when I finally got it up and running once I got my first phonecall the ROM basically fell apart, force closes, couldnt answer calls, everything lagged. Luckily Damage was backed up so I just went back and re situated.
[Hero CDMA General] Sporkman:
this nuff said
[Hero CDMA General] abov3dis:
i know that really does help and i tried both and the few issues i had with darchlegend were fixed with damage so im happy now lol there both pretty great,...
[Hero CDMA General] damageless:
The rom is still alive! I just proposed and am on vacation. I will have a rom out soon with a fixed webkit!
[Hero CDMA General] VinceOB:
Neither....
[Hero CDMA General] YoungAceAtlanta:
It depends on you. Darch rom is based off the HTC Legend rom. which gives you some new features that roms based off of the Eris or just 2.1 its self dont have.

I use darch rom for a daily use.. Looks like v4.1 fixes all my problems not as much lag as before..
[Hero CDMA General] ilikepie22:
DamageControl

I think DamageControl is pretty fast. Im yet to test DarchLegend.
[Hero CDMA General] nimitz87:
have you played w/ Flipz 2.02b?

Chad
[Hero CDMA General] ebartolon:
I Think Damage Control, because Darchlegend in my expeirience i had extreme lags, whereas Damage Control i did not.
[Hero CDMA General] scott2020:
Cool! I didn't mean to come across impatient, but the major 2.1 ROM's seem to have hit hard for a few days and then calmed down some. Enjoy life!
[Hero CDMA General] rjj1976:
"Just proposed", oh man, we will never see another ROM, lol.
[Hero CDMA General] blulitespecial:
I've tried DarchLegend, Damage, and Fresh.

I landed on fresh. I can't remember if I had any problems with Damage, but I just tried DLegend today and it was laggier than the other two, so I switched. I still have my nandroid setup in case I want to switch to either though.
[Hero CDMA General] abov3dis:
yes we should.
[HD2 General] atlp99:
I have been playing with the store demo for the T-mobile HD2 for the last couple of days. Mostly I'm very impressed with the phone, but the one thing that is driving me crazy is that Google reader is completely useless from the browser. I have tried opera 9.7, opera 10, and opera mini and all of them mangled the formatting to to point that it is unusable. The mobile site is not any better. Any solutions?

Thanks
[HD2 General] wotsreallygood:
I use the RSS reader included in the HD2 and export my google reader subscriptions to it.

Google should really bring out an app for that. Otherwise just sort out their website.
[HD2 General] Demon_man:
there is an google reader app on opnmarket but i think the link is down at the moment

try this

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-speeed-reader.html
[HD2 General] camper:
I've tried it but performance is poor
[HD2 General] atlp99:
I'm not tied to google reader

I should mention that I'm not tied to using Google reader, I like using Google reader because I can access it from my phone and my computer and and keep it in sync between the two. I would be open to trying other rss readers with the same ability if anyone has alternative suggestions.
[HD2 General] pdukanac:
try using the iphone link, it works great ( for using on phone its PERFECT)

http://www.google.com/reader/i/
[HD2 General] zaar:
that iphone link is just lifesaver. thanks a lot. the best solution do far for google reader.
[HD2 General] DarkAvenger:
if you use iphone link of Google Reader with Iris Browser will be a perfect couple.
[HD2 General] xnes:
excelent tip, really liked!

Thanks!
[HD2 General] atlp99:
Thats freaking perfect Thank you.
[HD2 General] GeitjeG:
This above mentioned Speeedreader works perfect for me, I use it for months now, and I'm really content with it.

A new version is coming soon I've read.
[HD2 General] zefiltrin:
Perfect tip indeed!

I was just going to buy SmartRSSTouch just for this. Now it seens I don't need it anymore.

Thanks!
[HD2 General] Mujja:
There doesnt seem to be a way to add a star on the iphone reader page.

I've been using smartrsstouch for months, best greader i've tried. Only issue, it keeps asking for userid and password when used over 3G.
[HD2 General] gancho:
Awesome tip, thank you! The standard reader was impossible to use...
[HD2 General] InfX:
Any tips on how to contact the speedreader developer in an attempt to report (and hopefully get a fix for) a bug with right to left feeds display ? This is, more or less, the only thing that voids me from using it. Note that SmartRSSTouch got an identical issue as well.

Bug description: RTL list entries are displayed with the html code, that is supposed to switch the list entry to RTL, shown as text instead of being applied to the list entry. Reproducible with any RTL feed (anything Hebrew or Arabic should do), for example, this feed - http://www.ynet.co.il/Integration/StoryRss2.xml

Hi,

I'm trying to install Mobile Defense, but I'm not getting the activation email. i checked online on mobile defense's website, and I believe it's b/c now with the DC ROM, it thinks it's a verizon phone, and I don't receive the activation sms.

Anyone else get this working somehow?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] crunchybutternut:
I've seen the same thing, so I just switched back to Wave Secure. It has a lot more functionality anyway, but it does send its SMS when you do things and they are from Singapore or something. That can result in charges depending on your plan.

..As long as you sign up by the end of March you get a free lifetime subscription.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ro_bro:
and you were able to activate wave secure on your DC 2.1 ROM?

How did you activate it? via SMS?

EDIT:

Never mind, I just signed up successfully on Wave Secure with my DC 2.1 ROM. Weird though that I can activate Wave Secure, but not mobile defense. It does also bother me that the sms comes from gateway is in singapore, so any command texts I send to it will be an international charge.

I just also found out that international texts are 20 cents each.

http://www.nextel.com/en/services/worldwide/intl_txt_msg_from_us.shtml
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] poor_red_neck:
I'm having the same issue.

I'm going to e-mail tech support and see what they say. Judging by the forums they seem to be very friendly/helpful.

I've been using wave secure for a while now. Yes, they do charge .20 for texts... small price to pay if you ask me. It has helped me find my phone on more than one occasion.

$500 for a new phone, or a buck or two for some texts...

Besides, you can always complain to sprint and I'm sure they'd refund it. Just play dumb. Sprint is begging to hold on to every customer they have anyways. I however dont mind a few .20 charges from time to time.

I'll keep the thread updated if I get anywhere with Mobile Defense.

There is one big reason I'd love to use mobile secure though. If you are root, mobile defense will turn on GPS if it is off. With wave secure, if you leave GPS off it will only send the location of the tower you're connected to. Not much good really.

EDIT

Here is the post over at Mobile Defense's Forums...

http://support.mobiledefense.com/viewtopic.php?pid=3857#p3857
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] someonenewhere:
I use Lookout ...I think its better than wavesecure and mobile defense...

remember that wave secure sends you text messages from Singapore ..Sprint will charge you for those text messages..
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] poor_red_neck:
I tried Lookout... very buggy. Did not like it at all. That and its bloated with crap I dont need. Antivirus on android???? Yeah... dont think I need that.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] someonenewhere:
I know....i leave that off...

it's a simple app though..
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
Well, there we go... I saw texts from Singapore on my bill and was like WTF??? glad I know where they're from now lol
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] poor_red_neck:
So... there is a workaround but I'm not sure exactly how to do It (reading this from my phone in bed at 1am lol.)

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] poor_red_neck:
So here's how all I needed to do running Damage Control...

I pulled the build.prop

(either copy using Root Explorer, or via ADB)

Only thing I changed is:

ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric [b]310120[/b]

The only thing I had to do differently is uninstall the application, then re-install. Open Mobile Defense, re-login with your account, then you should get the activation text.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] djteotancolis:
hello everyone i'm building my 1st rom for the fuze with 6.5wm....this is gonna be my first ever rom...so i would appreciate it ppl can give me some good tips and what i must do and not do to avoid mistakes....

thank you

P.S:if any one wants to donate they can...not expecting much but just for buying a used fuze or even if somebody wants to donate a fuze thank you
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Tip #1: Don't go in the main 6.5 release thread and say "hey, there's this Beta thing on my home screen. How do I get rid of it? I thought the time-bomb was patched. Is it still there?"

Tip #2: Don't go in the same thread and say "hey, all my settings-personal-items are missing? What happened?"

Tip #3: If things aren't working as they should, like, say, you can't open up word documents, then try including the Sys packages that you left out because they had weird names and you figured they didn't matter.

Tip #4: DO NOT ASK: "Hey, what's the difference between all these builds?" in the 6.5 thread.

Tip #5: Read the first 6 posts of the 6.5 thread. Several times. When you run into issues, re-read those posts.

Tip #6: Search!!!

That's all I got for now. Go to ppckitchen.org for good tutorials and also mobileunderground.info.

Edit: a couple more.

Tip #7: Don't beg for builds.

Tip #8: If you rom sucks or won't boot, don't blame someone else. It's your own fault, and if you didn't keep track of changes to your kitchen or back it up, too effin' bad. Figure it out yourself-it's nearly impossible to guess what someone else effed up over the interweb.

Has anyone experienced gmail sync issues?

Mine works fine for a couple of hours after reboot. Then it doesn't automatically sync. I need to refresh to get the emails. I haven't located the reason why it stops synching.

I was hoping starting from scratch by reinstalling everything (even wiping out the data) with the latest ROM will fix it but didn't help.

Please help.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] incubus26jc:
yes its happening to me too. Works initially but doesn't later on. How do i refresh it?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] mixerman826:
I was seeing the same thing the past 2 days. I did a refresh about 7 hours ago and gmail has been syncing ok since then. Not sure what's making it work/not work either.

incubus: to refresh, go into the gmail app and then press the menu button. You'll see the refresh button there.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
I had this problem intermittently also, Then it just corrected itself.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cp0020:
yeah mine just started working right
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Reddog80p:
You can also sync manually by going to settings>data syncronization> hit menu button and press "sync now"
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cp0020:
or go into gmail hit menu/sync
[Touch CDMA Android Development] acegolfer:
It's working now.

Perhaps, it was the gmail server issue?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] crackeyes:
is anyone having issues with GMail messing up the contat pictures for your contacts. Mine has removed/replaced them with pics of people that the pic does not belong to. really pissing me off having to go through and updating the pictures every week.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] berardi:
no... mine have worked perfectly since the start. Have you gone onto gmail.com on a computer and reviewed the contacts in question to see if there is some kind of info messed up there?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] acegolfer:
This gmail sync issue is happening again intermittently. This is a bit annoying.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] aquenne:
ive found the sync issues seem to be related to 1.6..

ive switched to 2.1 (and back and forth the last little while), and find the email sync issues only happen in 1.6
[Touch CDMA Android Development] acegolfer:
Thanks. I confirm this. After upgrading to 2.1, gmail sync works 100%.

Everytime I try to open it on my phone, the only place I need it, it says I need a password. I emailed the ebook company and they never wrote me back.

I think the quickoffice one that comes with astro its quite good too
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
I have tried every single PDF viewer on the Market and they are all complete and utter garbage.

Luckily I was pleasantly surprised when I flashed the Desire ROM. Lo and behold, it had a PDF Viewer, one that was actually worth using!

I highly recommend switching to Desire, or trying to pull the files out to make it work on stock Android.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] HumpDdumpD:
If I'm not mistaken quick office comes on most the roms that will run on the nexus. You just need a file browser that will call it up for you (astro or my fav SUFBS) seems to open fairly large pdf files for me. Not a lot of options but it's better than any I've found on the market. From the sounds of it the OP has already used quick office though. Anyone know of any apps not mentioned here already?

For the ebook file, maybe try aldiko, I didn't like it, but that's why I usually just look for rooks on pdf format to download.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
The Google Listen app Fast Forward button skips ahead 30 seconds and the Rewind button moves backwards 7 seconds per tap.

Unfortunately, it doesn't play MP3s not downloaded through Listen.

Is there any mp3 player app that has similar fast forward / rewind X second skipping per tap?

(I'm on Modaco's Desire ROM, and the default music app doesn't even have fast forward or rewind - AT ALL)

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B1nny:
Hey guys, i just have a simple question, is the legend really that much better than the HTC Hero?

Cause i'm about to buy a HTC Hero, but if the Legend will be MUCH better, then i'll maybe take the Legend.

Well, what i'm afraid of is the following: the legend will be rooted/released, custom roms will be made, and all that stuff, but will the HTC Hero then "die" on this forums?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nortynort:
same phone just a bit faster from what I can see. At first I wanted to trade in my hero for a Legend mainly because one of the previews said something about better battery life. But now the reviews are out and battery life is just as bad so I decided against it.

Main pros and cons were:

Pros

+++MUCH better placement of the Back button on the Legend

+AMOLED screen

+Faster

+Slimmer and better looks

+flash on camera

Cons

-metal casing might feel more sturdy but can't feel as good as that rubbery back cover on the hero for every day use

-with the battery lid thing, doesn't look too good for hotswapping memmory cards

-with a one piece metal casing, prob hard to do, but it'll always be on the back of my mind, what if I dent it, what if I scratch it etc. etc.

In the end do I want to pay something like a £150 on top just to get a better placed back button? Answer was no, I'll manage.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gu1dry:
The Hero has a 528MHz CPU while the Legend has a 600MHz CPU.

The Hero has 288MB of RAM while the Legend has 384MB of RAM.

The Hero doesn't have a flash on the camera, while the Legend does.

That's really about it.
