News Break: 100 Chinese workers injured

trying to get to the factory first to reset the die's for their case molds!

OK, back to reality. How about using some of that "fake bugger" stuff they use to hold credit cards onto their mailing sheets. It goes on flat. It is removable. The price is right, and probably has just enough sticky to keep the flap in place a little better than nothing.
[HD2 Accessories] ez2remember:
Even cheaper from this seller OBO_HK

£3.30 for 2 delivered.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390176796265

Exactly the same case I have bought a few from them.
[HD2 Accessories] methodz:
try the angled cut and also try cutting it not so square so that the hinge area is smaller than the stand area. that way there is less pressure on the hinge when closed and also more surface area on the stand section to hold it in place when closed.

my hd2 stand

i made this stand and it folds up and fits in my wallet. its perfect for watching movies during your lunch break or just hanging round watching youtube.made with cardboard with brown shipping tape for reinforcement. 5 minutes flat.
[HD2 Accessories] gianton:
looks great, will try to make one.
[HD2 Accessories] gordofski:
nice one well done
[HD2 Accessories] :
Genius idea Dude !! :)

Never knew they could do that !! Do they charge or is it free ?? :confused:
[HD2 Accessories] paulieboy:
I love this case. I bought the gray one on eBay for like $4 including shipping. It came from china so it took like a week to ship, but I'm not complaining. I think it's the best looking case for the LEO. Not to mention it's super slim - adds "0" bulk. And it's glossy finish allows me to slide the phone into my pocket easily. Unlike the rubbery finished ones that can catch and get stuck.
[HD2 Accessories] ilordvader:
this was real nice :)
[HD2 Accessories] ilordvader:
This one is nice too GoGoStand
[HD2 Accessories] kelvin_swe:
im sure it will snap off if u keep using it for couple of weeks or months. but i am sure it is worth to try
[HD2 Accessories] Mgog718:
Not bad in concept but it would probably be better served made from a hard case. You should try removing that piece completely. replacing it with a harder plastic or using a pin to connect it to the case so that it's hinged instead or just a cut out flap. Let me know what you think.
[HD2 Accessories] jacpot:
Amazing, it's good and not expansive

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] lalo45:
just curious, has anyone been able to tether htc hero to ps3. Been trying, but ps3 wont detect it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tyrnight:
I dont think the PS3 will find AD-HOC networks
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gitemwet66:
What about via Bluetooth?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] abcdfv:
Go ahead and grab yourself a crossover cable, and bridge the connection through your PC.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] BrianDigital:
I don't even think with wifi on the speed of internet your PS3 will get wil pass for anything online
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] illogic6:
Pretty sure Sprint's 3G doesn't have quick enough burst speeds to play online. I tried that with a 360 once and it didn't work too well.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jerry43812:
Yes, I use Sprint and have and HTC Hero, which I installed PDANet (by junefabrics.com) which I connect to my PC via USB... then I also use a program called "Connectify" which, if you are running Windows 7, will use your wireless card as an "infrastructure" device, letting you connect to the internet with your PS3. I lag some when playing CODMW2 but overall it kicks ass!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] YoungAceAtlanta:
Hm unless you have full 3G bars.. i dont think you would make it pass the Signed in notifications. Online game play would be choppy.. really
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] millerboy3:
worked great on Rev A on with my hero and xbox 360. NO LAG. :D
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] lalo45:
what was your setup.....

thanks again everyone else for your help.....
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] vrundmc:
I used a PC that had a wireless connection and a lan connection. You can use a laptop. Bridge wireless connection with LAN. Connect with ethernet cable. I used a normal cat5 but everyone says use crossover. Turn on xbox, hit repair on the bridged connection. Play XBOX!! Worked flawlessly with halo. Had lag with NHL.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] adelaney:
Pretty sure it depends on where you are. It works perfectly fine for me, playing SoCom and streaming medium quality video. Had to tether to computer then share to wifi router.

There's an app for ps3 media server in the market, that turns your hero into a media server. It's works pretty good for media, not internet though.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jerry43812:
Wrong. I game on one bar, 3G.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jerry43812:
For a windows 7 laptop with a wireless card in it.

1) Go to junefabrics.com and select pdanet for android.

2) download the PC version.

3) on phone, go to market and download pdanet free edition

4) google (topeka) Connectify and download and install

5) set up conectify as a infrastructure (NOT AD_HOC)

6) connect your hero to laptop via USB and turn on pdanet, connect to internet

7) enable connectify

8) set up your ps3 to connect to your connectify "router"

9) play online on your ps3!
[EVO 4G General] bigjim:
So from reading the posts on this site, the Evo 4G won't be hitting these shores (UK) until after the summer, if at all Right? And when it does it'll will probably be a 3G machine as I don't think we have the infastructure to support 4G in UK. I'm wondering what else will be lacking from the UK model? The Camera Doesn't bother me, and the processor isn't a big concern, so I'm wondering If I couold just buy an HD2 and get rid of WinMo and stick Android on it. Any ideas?? The Evo 4G looks amazing but I need a new phone now...
[EVO 4G General] wankingweiner:
Im with u dude. I really want this phone to come to Europe. But right now we have no idea what will be and wont be included in the UK/Europe version (or even if its coming at all). If anything changes i hope its not the camera. The 8mp with 720p recording feature is important for me.

As for the HD2, im not too sure if you can install android on it right now. Maybe someone else here can clarify this? But even if there is a stable release of android for the HD2, i wouldnt buy the phone with the sole intention of wiping it and installing a new OS on it. I''ll just wait for HTC to release the EVo alternative for Europe.
[HD2 General] _Kyros_:
Hi all, I just got a new HTC HD2 from T-Mobile US and wanted to know if someone can point me in the right direction on how to install Android. I'm pretty familiar with Android since my first Smartphone was the HTC Dream/G1 (which I miss already) and the only reason I got this phone besides the specs was that I heard you can hack it to run Android. I have no clue about Windows Mobile phones since this is my first one (and I don't like it already LOL) but if I can get Android on here then maybe she's a keeper...any help will do, thanks in advance.
[HD2 General] aceo07:
Sell your HD2 if you don't like WM. It'll be a while before Android is on it. Android is possible on the HD, if you want to get that phone.
[HD2 General] _Kyros_:
WOW! So Android hasn't been ported to the HD2 yet? Looks like I'm taking my phone back to T-Mobile and sticking with my trusty Dream until the next best thing comes out.

How can I flash a Radio file LEOIMG.nbh using RUU?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wkc21:
Flashing Via ActiveSync

1. Download your required Radio and rename the extracted file to RUU_Signed.nbh

2. Sync your phone with the PC

3. Run CustomRUU.exe from the Radio's Folder and follow the instructions
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] skr_xd:
No need to rename radio file. Just the .nbh file and CustomRUU.exe should be in the same folder without any other files.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] donalgodon:

LEOIMG.nbh to what?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] samsamuel:
no need to rename anything.

Download your radio .nbh file. Doesnt matter what it is called, so long as it is the .nbh file.

put .nbh in folder with customruu.exe

run cutomruu.exe

Hi, I already posted this on the polaris forum but I can not find an answer there, so maybe someone can help me:

When booting after flashing I get two sounds, the first one (a short blip), the windows cursor for a couple of seconds and then the tap screen and the same sound for the second time.

It seems a non critical error but I do not know how to locate and fix.

Any suggestions?

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddotpatel:
Yeah its call "rooting". You can try rooting the current ROM (not too sure how to go about doing that) or you can flash a different ROM.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645253 is a good place to start,... and you can find custom ROMS in the development section (also look at the "stickys" at the top of the development section).

Hope that helps.

Hi Guys and Girls,

This is my first HTC device and im loving it so far, being a long user for wimo devices, recently come from an omnia i8000, huge improvement going to the HTC, i wont look back.

Has anyone expericened missing email accounts? it still seems to be in the list but its hidden? i can create a new account with a different account name, and it works but is there any fix? :(

Thanks for your help
[HD2 General] schibs:
Bj,

I experienced the same problem today. However, I noticed that the mail settings had disappeared in addition to the accounts no longer showing up.

The only way I was able to solve the problem was by deleting the mailboxes and re-creating them.

Hopefully there is a better solution found in case this happens again.
[HD2 General] Eoinoc:
Same thing happened to me just yesterday, wonder what's the cause.

Anyway I had the settings backed up to a cab as described here so a reinstall of that set them back up in seconds.

[HD2 General] bizmark03:
Even I've had the same problem twice..and in addition to losing the email accounts, all my apps which required login like facebook, fring, etc stopped remembering usernames and passwords. Even if I selected save password, it kept asking me everytime is started the app.

The first time it happened i did not notice why, but the second time it happed immediately after a soft reset done using BSB Tweaks after making some changes in it.

I have removed BSB Tweaks for the time being, so will wait and see if it happens again.
[HD2 General] wergor:
the email problem can be solved by going to email- tab --> menu --> account settings (may have another name) --> choose your disappered account. you will notice some of your settins are lost, in my case the mail servers and the username. type in the missing information, and hit 'done', your email acc will be visible again.
[HD2 General] ricz73:
Missing Accounts

Same problem after I installed the newest firmware in June. Never happened before, since then TWICE, so it must be the issue of the new FW. Sorry wergor, the solution you offer sucks. Doesn't solve the cause!

[HD2 General] Dan.S:
Hey,

I found a solution to this problem that I think works. The first time this happened my email accounts disappeared and all of my logins for other things (facebook, etc) also stopped working. This just happened again with no recent mods to the phone, and the only add-on I have is C00kie's Home Tabs (which I didn't have the first time).

The first time I used all the missing settings as an opportunity to upgrade my software. This time I'm on the road and I don't have time to fool with it. Happily I did figure out a way to resurrect the vanished accounts.

As you stated, if you try to recreate the settings, the system will tell you that the account exists, forcing you to create the same settings with a different name. You can probably find your original settings by doing the following:

Go to the settings tab. (Scroll left from your home)

Choose "Data Services"

Scroll down to "E-Mail"

Here you should see whatever accounts you created, even if they don't show up in your email tab proper. Select them and update your passwords (if they're missing, mine were). Everything should look normal.

As I said, I'm on data roam and I couldn't get my OTA download to work where I am. Hopefully when I get back I'll know for sure. Give it a try and I hope it helps you.

Dan
[HD2 General] TwinCZ:

ECHO 4) Remove HTC lockscreen

Does this affect the google map?
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcase:
no, it would be the rom.
[Droid Eris Android Development] toastcfh:
a solution to this is most likely to remove the apk from /system/app. this can b done a few ways but this one will do: adb shell rm /system/app/Maps.apk

anyhow its most likely due to the apps sigs. as in it was signed with test keys or something. also i know sometimes some apps wont update from /system/app i always add apps that can or will update to /data/app and symlink it in my roms. also i do this with larger apps like maps, streets, quickoffice, and so on. its a good practice i think. its worked out well for me
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcase:
Tried when that problem popp'd up on another leak rom i was using, that caused errors for me. This issue should be solved in all current roms.

[EVO 4G General] tropmonky:
:confused:

So one thing that bugs the living heck out of me is the lame touchscreen on my Nexus One... Does anyone know what touchscreen this phone is going to be using????

I can honestly say that's the SINGLE thing keeping me from thinking about ditching my N1 for this phone...

EDIT ADDON: I'm not talking about the display screen type, I'm trying to find out the manufacturer and model of the touchscreen used in the EVO 4G
[EVO 4G General] Toaplan:
I was wondering the same thing and posted this on another forum. I guess it is relevant here too.

I have been reading up on this a bit more and I don't think there is enough information yet to make a call on whether this is AMOLED or TFT LCD.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnQcsC-qjpo

In this video at exactly 3:00, some representative (from Sprint or HTC?) specifically says that the display is a 4.3" TFT display and NOT AMOLED :

http://developer.sprint.com/site/global/develop/mobile_platforms/android/android.jsp

I also found this link in a thread on androidcentral.com which is a Sprint developers site that states the following:

Display

Type: amoled captive multi-touch

Size: 4.3 inches wga

Resolution: 800x480 (WVGA)

HDMI output: YES

I guess the verdict is still out on this issue unless someone else has anything to add.
[EVO 4G General] tropmonky:
Oh, it's TFT like you hear the reps say in the videos, that's all over the place in the videos released just a couple days ago as you've already seen... it's a really really high quality TFT.. I just haven't been able to find out the Touchscreen yet.
[EVO 4G General] eaglesteve:
For me, this is also the number one area of concern. My understanding is that the technology is quite different from iPhone's. It would be really good if they can have the accurate and predictable screen behaviour of iPhone's touchscreen. My guess is that iPhone has already patented their touchscreen technolgy so it would not be legal to copy it now.
[EVO 4G General] keatre:
Pretty much everywhere you look, and including the rep, its a TFT screen. The AMOLED was what many thought the "Supersonic" would have, but when the Evo was announced, it was said to be TFT.

But then, alot of people are saying TFT > AMOLED for practical use (sunlight issues). Sure you can bring up Super AMOLED, but I'm not sure HTC has the rights to use that technology yet.
[EVO 4G General] eaglesteve:
My main concern is the accuracy of the touch screen manufactured by HTC.

See this report if you have not done so yet:

http://labs.moto.com/robot_touchscreen_analysis/
[EVO 4G General] keatre:
Yeah, condensed version for those at work:

ArsTechnica

But, with a screen that large - I doubt touchscreen performance will be lacking. Has anyone heard any issues with the HD2's touchscreen performance?
[EVO 4G General] Shylock:
I have both the HD2 and the 3GS.

The HD2 touchscreen is crude compared to the iPhone.

On a web page, links often cannot be selected, and the keyboard is horrible to use despite the fact that is larger than the iphone's.

The keyboard responds to the last input detected. Touch a letter and as you move your finger away and brush another letter that is the one that is selected, which is a major hassle.

Also pinch & zoom is very limited on the HD2.
