Rubbish Carphone Warehouse deals and lies.

Just popped into the Carphone Warehouse on the corner of Oxford Street and Tottenham Court Road.

They have the Desire, unlocked. The deals they could offer me were rubbish though. I was after the T-mobile £20/month 24Month 600mins/500txts and £130 for the phone. For £20 a month they would only offer 300mins and £170 for the phone. Rubbish.

I showed the guy the deal on the T-Mobile website, but he couldn't match it. His reason will make you laugh...

"T-Mobile put their own software on top of Android which slows it down.".

I corrected him, pointing out the very few modifications T-Mobile have made to the stock HTC ROM, and he looked a little out of his depth.

Seriously, do they actually teach their staff to spout total bullsh*t?

Ordering over the phone with T-Mobile - hoping to get a few quid off the web price. What is the best deal anyone here has managed on the £20 a month deal?

update: Just phoned T-Mobile sales - lovely lady offered me £20 discount on the phone (so £110 not £130) on the £20/month 24month contract. Not in stock at the moment, but expected within 48 hours (from this morning). She said she will wait for stock to come in, then immediately place the order and call me to confirm free next day delivery.

[Networking] spark001uk:
I have my HD2 and my home pc connected to the same wifi router, and basically i want to use the media player on the HD2 to access music files on the home pc. Now, i have managed to use resco explorer's network function to map the shared folder, and i can open it in resco, tap a music file, and play it, but how to play a whole album/folder, like i normally do in the media player? Its almost as if i need a proper path available in the system's own file explorer, which i can then select in any application?

Hi guys

Does anyone know of any windows phone devices with dual sim? A google shows up the glofish dx900 but little more.

I am ideally looking for a phone that is 3g and supported on this forum if possible

Many thanks

As far as I know the Dx900 is the only 3G winmobile dual sim phone available. It's my phone right now, not developed inside her but there's a nice forum dedicated to it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Tada1228:
I was selling my 8525 on ebay with the NO GSM error, meaning that it cant be used as a telephone but everything else works perfectly. It only sold for $11, so should I stick with it or cancel out??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
If you need cash then you could make a lot more dismantling the phone and selling components seperately - even using the marketplace here. However, that takes a lot of effort, so you have to ask if it's worth your time and energy. Some parts you could get a few dollars for and there are a few of them. It comes down to how much of your time you want to give to selling it.

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Tada1228:
yeah i have the time to disassemble the phone. I also have experience in disassembling because ive took apart this phone many times trying to fix it.

TomTom 7.915 working without a problem on HD Mini; first lock took about a minute, subsequent locks about 10s. :)

Also Coreplayer decoding DVD-ripped 700Mb movie files with a benchmark of about 105%, which is much better than I was expecting.
[HD Mini General] debully:
fantastic!
[HD Mini General] xthvio:
I can confirm also that it works, version 7.915 installed and running perfectly
[HD Mini General] debully:
cheers people. This is a deal maker for me, got one on order. Nice one!
[HD Mini General] xthvio:
Could you tell me what version of Coreplayer you used?

I can only get sound working but no image, I tried .avi & .mp4 files
[HD Mini General] ianjd:
I have Coreplayer 1.3.6 build 7427; the trick is to change the Menu->Tools->Settings->Video output type to Raw Framebuffer; GDI seems to work too, but not as well.
[HD Mini General] xthvio:
Thanks, this works.

Fullscreen does not look as sharp as it should but i'm happy it works :)
[HD Mini General] Frank C:
Did you use QVGA version of TomTom or VGA?
[HD Mini General] xthvio:
It seems to work with both but I don't see a notable difference.
[HD Mini General] Qtek8020User:
TomTom is very important for me.

Now I'm just waiting for the HD Mini to be released in Denmark.
[HD Mini General] Frank C:
I agree.....no TomTom no phone......:D

[HD Mini General] debully:

[HD Mini General] fusi0n8:
I can confirm TomTom works fine on the HD mini...

Just tried it with tomtom.navigator.v7.916.9192.vga.black
[HD Mini General] ostrichwatch:
Good luck though getting TomTom to activate your maps, which I needed to ask them to help me with as my maps had been previously activated on my Touch HD.

They are refusing to at present as this device isn't on their compatibility list.

Note to self: why do I buy the software and not rip it? Hmm... :confused:

Answer: Becuase that would be wrong. Although given the choice between it working and not working, I could live with being bad.
[HD Mini General] ostrichwatch:
Is anyone on here connecting to the HD Mini successfully with TomTom HOME software on their PC?

My installation of the HOME 2.7 software flatly refuses to connect to the device when I plug it in via USB.

I then plug the Touch HD in using the same USB port and the same TomTom HOME installation jumps into life and happily connects and updates the Touch HD device.

I might be guessing at this but it seems the TomTom HOME PC software is not allowing Win Mobile 6.5 devices to connect at all?

Clearly the good folk on here that are confirming TTN7 as working can't be doing this officially?!

ow.

Yes it works! but I can't download anything from TomTom Servives like new voices, POIs, etc using WiFi or 3G connections.

BTW, v7.916.9192.vga.black needs to be noBT (non bluetooth). And versions v7.918.9193 vga_black or qvga_black don't work.
[HD Mini General] reflecs:
I've got 7.915 running on my wifes HD Mini but I've got a problem with the voices (only tested with dutch voices). It stops telling me where to go after a few words.

Anyone had this problem?:confused:
[HD Mini General] MobileMini:
Hi, im also using TomTom with Dutch voices it works fine here. Except of the small GPS lag.

I am using the following versions:

- TTN_7.916.9192_QVGA_black_fixed_BT

- TT-Voices_(5x_NL)

- HelpMe_folder_(update_2009-06-17)

No problems but the GPS lag.
[HD Mini General] Roy_S:
Would you mind confirming the installation steps :)

I have legally purchased Navigator 7 which I know does not automatically load and read through the forum back as far as 2010 trying to find installation steps.

I have downloaded ttn7.917.9186_vga_black.cab and copied this to the memory card along with the contents of the card TomTom sent me.

Do I simply run the cab then the TomTom installation or are there files I need to swap over.

Help appreciated.......

HI ALL,

On modaco 3.2 the GPS is not working at least for google map but meteo is ok?!

And for All 2.1 ROMS we have the green effects problem on recording video and photos?!

And also, not working playback videos for some of them!!

Plz guyz tell me i m not crazy lol cause i dont find any solution and I dont know now which rom is definitively really stable and full working.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
mcr3.1 is stable and everything that is in there works. same goes for 3.2, but it lacks a few things since it is an operator tailored rom (namely there would be the "2g only" switch in settings, not sure about others). gps is working fine in both, if you have problems reflash your radio.

there is no bugfree 2.1 rom yet, as we are still waiting for the official release from htc.

if i say that this is the wrong category i will get bashed, so i'm not gonna say it. just gonna point out to you that there is a q&a subforum, which might be the better place for these types of posts.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FunkTrooper:
Going from a 2.1 ROM to a 1.5 ROM appears to break GPS in some cases.

This can be fixed by reflashing the radio.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riyadhuae:
THX a lot

i didnt say it is working lol cause i didn t try yet but i mean if you say so, so it is working and i ll try like that.

[Desire General] jazzk:
Slightly worrying as I've got one from T-Mobile. Couple of things keeping me from being too worried:

1. I haven't noticed anything awry yet

2. If there is a glitch, it seems to be software based, so flashing the phone with/when the generic HTC ROM is officially publicy available (which I intended to do, anyway) should fix it.
[Desire General] jonneymendoza:

[Desire General] jonneymendoza:
Maybe so. lets wait and see. if its a software bug, i can live with that as it can get rooted/updated but if its a hardware issue.

well were ****ed then
[Desire General] s1977:
My only grief until now is the absence of the voice-to-text facility. HTC have specifically mentioned this on desirehtc.com -> Android. They mention that "

Rather excitingly, it brings us into a realm where voice-to-text is a reality in all text fields. Imagine sending texts or emails simply by talking to your phone. Now do it, we're there.

" How the t-mobile desire version did not get it is beyond me at the moment.
[Desire General] chris.semple:
I find it strange that they only included the HTC Touch keyboard and removed the standard Android one. I ran both on my G1 and it was each to switch input methods with a simple long hold in a text entry field.
[Desire General] irkan:

[Desire General] scotch whisky:
Can't say I have seen anyone complaining of any problems yet.

Can't be that serious can it!

If it's a software problem it will soon be fixed. If it's a hardware problem I guess we will have our phones replaced.

I wouldn't worry about it. I would rather have the phone now with the seemingly trivial problem.

I flashed the Generic ROM anyway but I wouldn't recommend it as it's not possible to revert to the T-mobile ROM if you need to.
[Desire General] jonneymendoza:
a custom rom should fix that

Hi All,

Most of you know that im not new to windows mobile or HTC phones so excuse me if this post is a little noobish.

The problem is though... i cant seem to figure out how to change the font size in the HTC SMS messaging app!

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] metallica1:
guys, is it possible in the future we see a htc hd mini rom port to our touch hd?

will it work?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] miniterror:
in theorie i believe it is possible but all packages have to be ported to wvga size

sort like the leo sense to diamond 1

if people do that chefs can make a kitchen of those packages and cook a rom out of it

but what benefits should hd mini rom have

i believe it is also sense packages and i think it wont be better then rhodium packages

edit: i do have to say porting over packages takes a LOT of time
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Wajk:
most packages no, because HD mini is HVGA...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] millski:
Like you I can't see many advantages to using the mini HD version of Sense 2.5. It includes the mini HD lockscreen, which has already been ported as a cab file, and a location based internet tab (presumably for finding nearby restaurants etc). Given how long a good port takes it's likely we'll see newer Leo/Rhodium/Topaz builds of 2.5 in the meantime, which will hopefully include anything useful from the mini HD.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Think this has been answered enough. Its theoretically possible, but would need to be ported to wvga size.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] sbrown138:
Ok I am trying to revert my phone to stock SPL because I need to return it. The touch screen is broken so anything I do needs to be done on the keyboard. So when I run the ruu the phone prompts me say yes run the unsigned code, but I cannot hit yes because it is a touch. I also cannot find a way to hit it properly. For the life of me I can't seem to figure out another way to do this.

I received the HTC Desire from Mobiles.co.uk today (shipped on Saturday). I selected a Vodafone 12 month contract.

The phone appears to be completely unbranded and has the following software information:-

Baseband version: 32.30.00.28u_4.05.00.11

Kernel version: 2.6.29-97da29ed

Build number: 1.15.405.3 CL150129 release-keys

would be good if guys with t-mobile could post their soft versions and then eventually if they have any issues with the phone ask MazMx5 to try to do things on his desire

Interesting. The Generic HTC ROM going the rounds is the same version as on yours. I have already flashed my T-mobile version of the HTC desire with the generic ROM to get rid of the "minor" branding. The case has no T-mobile markings.

I have noticed that having too many messages saved messes up the fluidity the device. So I started to delete my messages but it was still a bit laggy.
