if it's a cab file don't open it just transfer it to the pda and run it

if it's an exe file then most likely it's an windows install program which should be run on the pc and then it use activesync to transfer the cab file inside it to the pda and then it runs it

Thanks
[Omnia II General] abdelrahim:
If you mean Owner Information, you can go to setting> display and light> items on today > owner information and remove the tick from there....
[Omnia II General] abdelrahim:
OR other wise post some screen shots....
[Omnia II General] mrfrog:
I have had this issue :( with a number of WM phones in the past and the only way I managed to sort it out was by doing what is quoted above.:D

Mr Frog :cool:
[Omnia II General] engwas:
I solved it by registry

Thanks
[Omnia II General] krazy_about_technology:
To solve this, All one need to do is to first disable the TouchWiz UI from settings and then turn off the display of info from regular windows mobile settings.
[Omnia II General] myracleboi:
same issue

I have Samsung Omnia i8000 (with Windows mobile 6.5). I have same issue as engwas. All replies in this thread are solving showing Owner information in today screen. (I had tried it all, no luck).

I want to disable showing owner information window when I unlock phone or turn phone on.

When I bought phone, no Owner Information was shown when unlocking.

After I had set Owner information in Settings -> General Tab -> Owner Information -> Identification, Owner information window started to appear after unlocking or turnning phone on...

Has somebody solved this issue? Where can I disable showing this information?"
[Omnia II General] marinette500:
Why not remove this informations ? If you do it, it will disappear
[Omnia II General] idrak3:
How to do this can you infrom us cos i have same problem also.

Thanks in advance
[Omnia II General] coolpixs4:
Why don't you share for all ?

In WM6.1, Under Owner Information it has Option "when the device is turned on, display:"

- Identification

- Notes

If let it blank, it is not showed up however in WM6.5

There is not have the Option Tab, only Identification and Note Tab

So, in Registry it may contains a key to control that option

But I cann't find what it is ? who know that ?
[Omnia II General] coolpixs4:
After few days, I have found the solution to show and/or disable the My Info screen at power up before lockscreen or normal screen show up.

Thanks to this Blog http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7498413&postID=1731934624225103946

this trick apply to WM6.5.x only

Under Registry key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Owner

Open key [Owner] and [Owner notes] under Binary

[

00 00 00 00 .....00 00 00 00

00 00 00 00 .....00 00 00 00

...............

00 00 00 00 .....00 00 00 00

]

check the last 2nd bit (red), THEN

- set to 00 => to disable My Info screen (it is same as set Identification under Option Tab of Owner Information in WM6 or WM6.1)

- set to 01 or 08 in order to show up My Info at startup or power up screen before show up Lockscreen.
[Android Apps and Games] Zafazo:
I have been wondering thru the internet and have found many ideas of using a mobile phone with Android on it as a webcam.

placeware has been working on developing one but i can not seem to get in contact with these guys or find there app.

This would be a really cool idea and has already been implemented on the nokia s60 s40 etc. But not for the Android.

I think the best approach however would be finding out how qik use the the cell network to send video to their site.

Just do to this representation of a live video feed means that this would be very possible.

Some other ideas would be to use Bluetooth, Wifi or USB to connect the phone for webcam use.

This is qik the video streaming peeps

cant post the link

This is the webcam idea some other group had but has recently appeared to die...

cant post the link

...

That is a cool app for sure but the intention here is to not have to buy a web cam when i have a perfectly good 5mp camera on my phone.

As well as a wireless one to boot would be really cool.

Not to mention using the phone as a mic as well.

For instance; To use with skype to show somebody certain objects or large objects that you would not normally be able to show easily with a wired webcam.

I think it would just be really cool to have a phone with a cam facing you to use apps like skype on android....

Somebody really needs to do something like this it would be really really awesome and convenient to use.

However, The basic idea being feeding video to a computer to use for whatever you would want.
[Android Apps and Games] mudrock1000:
+1 on this.

I've been waiting for something for ages for this on my Nexi. I mean it may need root access but IDC, because it's better than most webcams probably.
[Android Apps and Games] Tell Me Where is Gandlaf:
This is a really good idea, I'm surprised an app hasn't been made for this yet. Hopefully it's just a matter of time.
[Android Apps and Games] contagous:
This would be cool, hoe someone picks up on this
[Desire General] zonkkk:
I am so keen to get my hands on this phone...

Mine was sent to me yesterday so I am hoping to get it today.

Could you all just write a post here when you receive yours so we can do some tracking this way.
[Desire General] nintendolinky:
Ive just rang my delivery office, they have it and are about to go out for deliveries, they said it will be delivered before 10pm, however i live like 5 mins away from Ossett Town center, so should be here sooon.
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
Blimming heck, thought I was bad. You guys here at 7am waiting on the phone..... oh wait....

It's a great feeling, being told one minute your have to wait another week after getting all excited, and then having that reversed during a horrible 7 to 5 shift at work. Marvellous!!!

We can all come back on here this afternoon and ***** about bugs then. lol

How long are you guys going to give the first charge?
[Desire General] nintendolinky:
I have work at ten, so im not charging it. I know I know I should charge it, but no I dont want to lol. Its coming to work with me. :)
[Desire General] jpxdude:
I've been up since 5:30am, now thats sad!

I'm hoping it gets here before 10ish, as I have to go out :( C'mon Mr/Ms/Mrs Postman!
[Desire General] irkan:
Keep us posted mate :D and take pics of it if you have another camera :P
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
im patiently awaiting too... Got a text last night saying my new line was now active and the number is now posted on my t-mobile portal.
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
Did you have the tracking number or did you just quote your name and address?
[Desire General] nintendolinky:
I have a tracking number
[Desire General] Ethania:
Delivery on a saturday??

Were do you live?

In sweden the postal service is closed...
[Desire General] nintendolinky:
We all live in the UK, We get post on saturdays, not sundays though. I have a tracking number which is: SG836901414GB, I did give the guy my name though, and he was like, yeah its here, its just leaving now, but 45 mins later and he isn't here yet. I want it now lol.
[Desire General] jpxdude:
Still waiting too, although I've logged into my T-Mobile account on the website, and it has already populated all the info for my package, and phone number etc! Can't wait till it gets here :)
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
can I ask how did you obtain your tracking number, t-mobile said it wasnt available yesterday?
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
I've got mine!! Yaaay

7:39am and there was a huge bang on the frontdoor!!

It's on charge now.
[Desire General] profet:
early

I'm rather jealous of you guys waiting for your phones to arrive, especially since I'm up at 7am with the kids anyway. I held off on the home delivery because I'm away at work all next week 200 miles from home, so if it didn't arrive today It'd be sat at home unopened for a week. I'm planning on going into a T-mobile store Monday - fingers crossed.

Good luck with the deliveries - try to share some of the excitement with the rest of us!
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
Oh, and the downside is it comes with a 4GB memory card. Grrrh
[Desire General] nintendolinky:
I asked them, they gave me it. Simples. And oh my god you have got it. Can you see if its unlocked to all networks please, also any T-Mobile branding.
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
I've not switched it on yet, going to do a full charge first but there is no T-Mobile branding or marking anywhere on the case or even the packaging.
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
before 8am? nice one! I bet i will be one of them unlucky ones who wont get it till monday :( will call t-mobile at 8am and see if they can give me the tracking number...
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
i usually never charge a battery until its dead, so will use it until it shows low battery, and then do a 12 hour charge, and run it down to low battery at least 3 times.

it will then last ages! my current BB Bold lasts 3 days!
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
Can you confirm if the phone has branding etc from T-Mobile.
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
I usually get the same effect after discharging completely, recharging a few times from normal use. Worked with the Hero.

The videos don't do this phone justice, it's lovely to look at and fits great in the hand. My biggest worry was scratching the back of the case when putting it down but HTC have thought of that and it has a rubberised finish on the back which is awesome.
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
None whatsoever. Not on the box, or the phone anywhere to be seen.

It's the dark bronze / brownish one btw, not a grey black as was mentioned to me on the phone. But then a great part of the phone has this cool black rubber finish so it doesn't matter anyway.
[Desire General] juicytuna:
Just received mine too. There is no branding on the exterior of the phone itself but on boot up there is a t-mobile splash screen and the browsers default home page is set to the t-mobile site.
[Desire General] nintendolinky:
Is it unlocked.
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
mines on its way! tracking number was just given to me by the t-mobile exchange team :)
[Desire General] Nmidia:
are all your orders from T-Mobile?

Any one had anything shipped from Mobiles.co.uk?

Waiting on my Orange Upgrade contract one....but all gone quiet from Mobiles
[Desire General] saquib:
Which number did you ring ?
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
Call t-mo customer services (150 from an existing handset), then option 5, then 4, then ask the advisior to put you through to the exchange team to track your order.
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
all orders seem to be so far from t-mobile
[Desire General] saquib:
Thanks....
[Desire General] Nmidia:
yeah thats whats upsetting me!
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
I tried calling but they wouldn't give it me lol, said its deffo due today but if it doesn't come to call them and they will find out why.
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
mine has just arrived :)
[Desire General] swordvish:
got my tracking number. It says:

It's on its way

We have received your item and expect to deliver it before the guaranteed time on 29/03/10.

To check on your item’s progress, please try again later.
[Desire General] djpfs:
retail box

Sorry for my english.

How does the retail Box look like?

Does it include 8gb or a 4gb microsd?

Thx
[Desire General] Arthur Hucksake:
Has the typical small white coffin box, but mine come with only 4GB SD. Not a problem because I already have an 8GB laying around that I use with my Hero.
[Desire General] amzchhabra:
Just a quick teaser:
[Desire General] zonkkk:
Mine just came in... LOUD bang on the door too!!!! The phone is great, much thinner than I expected. Charging at the moment.
[Desire General] khyasad:
Just called T-Mobile (150, then option 5, then option 4) and they confirmed mine will be delivered ... ... ... wait for it ... ... Monday ... It's going to be a loooong weekend :-(
[Desire General] djpfs:
retail box

thank you very much for ur fast reply!

looks much better then in the videos! :-D
[Desire General] SGTDavePwnage:
Anyone brave enough to try Rooting it?

Doubtful they have left the unlock bootloader working but you never know

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=612858

I might try it later, up-to the point where it asks *are you sure*.. without any roms to install I cant see the point in going any further atm.

If it does get to the *are you sure* screen on the phone im quite convinced it would work. It wouldnt get that far unless they had left the unlock bootloader option intact.
[Desire General] thedalmeny:
Got Royal Mail tracking number - is out for delivery today :D

Not arrived yet, be here before 1pm.
[Desire General] SammyBoyWonder:
I'm so annoyed. I called tmobile yesterday and they said the phone would be with me today. However, this morning I called them to get the tracking no, and now I'm being told it wont be till Monday.

I was really looking forward to getting it :mad:
[Desire General] thedalmeny:
That's Royal Mail fault tho - not T-Mobile.

It's depends on your area and whether RM will deliver a RMSD thats next working day on a weekend.

Mine is on it's way out for delivery - others have got theres. Should ***** at RM :)
[Desire General] SGTDavePwnage:
Its not RM.

T-mobile don't pay for a guaranteed Saturday delivery even though that's what they tell customers they are getting.

I checked mine on the RM website yesterday..T-mobile sent it as next day special delivery not Saturday delivery. Get your tracking ref number and type it in on RM's website, yesterday RM said mine was up for delivery on Monday *even tho I paid t-mobile for Saturday delivery*.

Even tho they said mine would be with me on Monday, RM have confirmed that I am getting it today as they would rather get it shipped earlier if they can.

Sounds like if RM don't have many deliveries to do in your area, they just shove any special delivery items on the van too. Its a matter of T-mobile being tight and not actually paying for Saturday delivery and just hoping that RM will do the usual trick of delivering on Saturday anyway
[Desire General] SammyBoyWonder:
Got a tracking number, and its UPS not royal mail.
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
Mines just come :D it is network locked but no branding on the phone.
[Desire General] SGTDavePwnage:
Bummer, sorry man :(

Yeah, ive heard that UPS dont deliver on a Saturday
[Desire General] ronnyuk:
I phoned T-Mobile but they don't have a clue about tracking numbers, they have said mines defo being delivered today and could arrive up to 5pm.

They gave me 2 numbers a web order number and web ref number niether are trackable on UPS or RM
[Desire General] SGTDavePwnage:
Try phoning again, seems like some people at t-mobile have no idea what they are doing.

I had to phone twice before I got someone who gave it me
[Desire General] ronnyuk:
Your right, this time i have been told it's in transit and am now being put through to some other team, I would rather know if it's being delivered today otherwise i can go out.

Just got the tracking number the royal mail website says this

"Your item has reached the delivery office and is out for delivery.

We can confirm that your item left the delivery office this morning and should arrive shortly if it hasn’t been delivered already"

Anyone else have this message on thiers?
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
Damn i can't seem to disable sense on mine wanted to try the nexus 1 look.
[Desire General] Nmidia:
NObiles.co.uk say it only came into stock TODAY with them, so won't be delivered until Tuesday now. Anyone know when Retail stores will get stock?
[Desire General] SGTDavePwnage:
Mine said that and i phoned RM to check....basically your gonna get it today as its already on the van :D
[Desire General] niraveg:
Yeah I'm getting that.

Yesterday it said guaranteed before delivery time on 29/3/10 but today its changed to your same message.

Should arrive before 1pm :-)
[Desire General] meson1:
It's MINE!! All MINE!!

Mine arrived 20 minutes ago. Looks great. Not turning it on until it's charged. The anticipation!!

It looks really classy. Nice soft black rubberised shell. The screen surround is midway between Bronze and Graphite; I can kinda see why they called it Urban Brown. It has a solid, weighty feel in the hand. A real quality feel to it.

Things of note:

1. It doesn't come with a full user manual. Just a Quick Start Guide.

2. The MicroSD card is a Sandisk Class 2 4GB card. So I may well buy a 8GB Class 6 MicroSD for less than £15 from Amazon.

How do I know when this thing is charged? I've plugged it in and I've got a steady little amber LED, which is beautifully discrete. But the Quick Start Guide does not say how it indicates when it's finished charging.

Edit:

Answer my own question. I looked in the download of the Legend Manual. According to that the LED will turn green when fully charged.
[Desire General] Datafanatic:
And it's HERE!!!!!

Top marks for T-Mobile for getting this wonderful phone to me as promised about half an hour ago.

Charging fully now before playing, will report back with any info.

One thing i did notice when first powered up is the T-Mobile Boot Screen :mad: and the internet icon has got a tiny w'n'w (which is web'n'walk) :mad: as well!!!

Haven't noticed anything else untowards....no wait, there is a T-Mobile Scene setting as well.

Oh and has anyone else who got their's today noticed that the screen IS NOT oleophobic (a la iP**ne 3GS). I was under the impression the Desire had that coating....maybe not.

Report more later

Regards

DF

Mine arrived about 9:15am this morning :) I've had a short play with it, pretty simple to set up mail and account settings, and to integrate everything else like facebook and twitter! Thought about starting to customize the home screen (scene) and then decided to turn it off and let it charge! Been doing that since about 10:30am now, still going.
[Desire General] ronnyuk:
Talk about leave it till the last minuite it has just arrived by the normal postie :

Just posting this from my new desire lol
[Desire General] meson1:
Been Playing

Been playing with it. I'm finding it's taking some getting used to. But that's okay. QWERTY keyboard is MUCH easier to use in landscape.

Managed to hook it up to my Wi-fi. It does do WPA2. Got it all working, MAC address filtered and all that. But it doesn't like it when I re-hide my SSID. It disconnects. Oh well. Unless there's a solution I'll just have to use it over 3G.
[Desire General] XDAgeek:
Hiding your SSID is unnecessary, and gives a false sense of security.

To anyone capable of trying to hack you, a hidden SSID offers not a jot of protection.

All it does is make your life harder.

Same with MAC filtering.

Just get your basic WPA/WPA2 properly implemented and use complex passwords.
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
How long are you lot charging for on first time.
[Desire General] ronnyuk:
I have not even charged mine, will do when it runs down low though :)

does anybody know where i can buy it in London (not online) with a VAT refund???
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
Thought i let you guys know i downloaded the launcher2.apk and installed it and if you wish to try the nexus one style just press home after install and select it, you get the 3d style menu and i also installed the gallery.apk and that works fine just means you get the nice gallery style one works on sense as well.
[Desire General] SGTDavePwnage:
Could you please provide info on where you acquired the launcher2.apk?

I tried this myself earlier and it kept crashing
[Desire General] Jabbypants:
Hi this the one i installed seems to work fine but you lose all the sense stuff and widgets, i just wish they had intergrated the nexus style 3d menu system into sense as basic one looks rather boring.

[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
I was looking at this t-mobile HD2 commercial and noticed that the tab transition from the contacts tab to the home tab was very much like the senseUI transition on android devices. It's smooth and doesn't just instantaneously jump. Is this real, or is it just a gimmick? Because mines obviously doesn't transition like that at all.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DogVofsUHHQ&feature=player_embedded
[HD2 General] ~~Tito~~:
Of course its not going to be like the commercial, nothing ever is.
[HD2 General] Lazarpandar:
I wish it looked like that

Short of looking great it does do that though. Swiping to the right will take you to the panel to the left and vice versa.
[HD2 General] lemonspeakers:
So are you guys telling me that this transisiont we see is not real for sense 2.5 2 on WM6.5?
[HD2 General] mabold:
In the commercial it is written "SCREEN SEQUENCE COMPRESSED AND SIMULATED" so ... !!!
[HD2 General] Zepiii:
Yeah, transition is ... probably... fake !
[HD2 General] lude219:
Like mabold said, the screen is simulated on the commercial but in real life, it's much faster to the point where you dont see the scrolling animation at all (which I prefer).
[HD2 General] Archer:
No, it doesn't do that. It never has done that and never will. Also, it's not "much faster to the point where you dont see the scrolling animation". It just doesn't do it.
