[Droid Eris Android Development] GrdLock:
PB00IMG files are rom's directly from HTC that are flashed from the phone's HBOOT. No one except HTC can sign those rom's, as they're the only ones that possess the keys.

If we could sign PB00IMG roms, then there would have never been any trouble rooting the phone!

(yeah, sure, you could name your rom PB00IMG and sign it yourself, but you wouldn't be able to flash it from HBOOT, just from your recovery partition.

Hello!

I always bought SE phones since the very first T68, I wanter the X10 because it's SE + Android but I must recognise that SE failed because of the size,lack of devs for ROMs and OS 1.6.

So I am looking at the N1 now :D

How many of you here had a SE and switched to N1?

Was it hard to adapt or quite the opposite?

I could live with ringtone volume of the C905 and Aino but the Satio was too quiet for my taste, how does the N1 compare in terms of ringtone volume?

Is it quiet like Satio or acceptable like C905 and Aino??
[Nexus One General] anthro:
I had the P800 and P990i. Other than those, my other phones are HTCs. I always preferred the HTCs over the SE ones.
[Nexus One General] scote:
t68i then had all the P series phones (P800 P900 P910 P990) and then W760 before buying an X1, that was the last straw for me, I knew HTC made it and I didn't like SE's panels mainly used touch-flo/sense based roms. so I thought WTF I dont really have an SE phone here any more

Then I thought Android was the way forward winmo was in a state of flux with the old 6.0 and 6.5 eeking out their existance while MS developed 7

I never liked S60 and did not like the locked down iphone model.

Never regeretted any moment since I bought the N1,

I have to thank apple for raising the bar, smartphone innovation was way too slow before the iphone was launched
[Nexus One General] liam.lah:
That was an awesome phone for it's day, my first smartphone. Unless you count the Nokia 9000
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
@ scote Can you say the W760 and X1 had louder ringtones than N1?
[Nexus One General] htc fan89:
Actually my w760a has louder speakers than mine n1. which is sad:(
[Nexus One General] DigitaL BlisS:
I'm not a SE fan, but have had tons of phones including other HTCs, and the volume on this phone has probably been the quietest, it's a little too quiet tbh. Can you make the volume louder with custom roms?
[Nexus One General] grainysand:
Yes, there's a thread in development about volume increase via a custom kernel.
[Nexus One General] britoso:
My prev phone was a w810i. Got it just before the iDont came out. Had it for 3 years till the Android I wanted was released.
[Nexus One General] rickyzone:
I've had the w580i, the w300i, the Xperia x1a, and a few others, and switched now to my N1. Honestly, I didn't think I would fair well with a touchscreen only phone, but overall I don't mind the switch. I am however a fan of SE, and always will be. The n1 is a tid bit louder then my xperia was. On par I believe with my old w580i.
[Nexus One General] vegetaleb:
My actual Se Aino is 135g while the N1 is 130g :)
[Nexus One General] nuggeo:
Ive had T20s and T20e and upto now Xperia X1 and K850i.

Now i bought the nexus one and i love it :D
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Had a W900i a few years ago, not what you'd call a fair comparison though :)
[Nexus One General] tchort:
I started with Ericsson T28W, then R380 my first smartphone, then T39, p800, p900, k790 then wanted to get Android so got G1 when it came out now on Nexus One. I wanted X10 but knowing SE and never ending delays didn't want to wait anymore, extremely happy with HTC and Nexus awesome phone.
[Nexus One General] tommy96814:
if you want loud rings get the moto droid
[Nexus One General] KennyXL:
w580i and Xperia X1i

I had the w580i which I enjoyed; didn't blow my doors off, but it was enjoyable. I had the X1i for a year and a half which I felt was a mistake from the day I purchased it. The only reason I didn't ditch it immediately was because I paid $640 for it and, dammit, I was going to get my money's worth. I suffered through a year and a half of that and then bought the Nexus One. Aside from the fact that the N1 doesn't have a physical keyboard (which is a pain because I'm not very good at the on-screen keyboard and make mistakes more often than I don't) and the video codec support is abysmal, it's pretty much perfect for my needs. I think it's awesome. Granted there are a few minor things I'd improve, but that stuff tends to be nitpicking for me.
[Touch HD General] justrome0:
Someone hit me at the metro while i was walking with my blackstone in hand. I dropped it hard, battery flung out, etc... After restarting it the display is white-ish i can barely see what's on it.

I would like to know if anyone has an idea of what might be broken and how to test it.

I'm not sure if it's still in warranty i have to check but well i don't even know if i still have the original rom dump (it's orange branded in romania).

So if it's just the display i might probably go for changing the display.

Thanks in advance.

Any small bit of advice is apreciated.

P.S: I already tried hard reset.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] adamg89:
Hi, just thought this was an interesting bug to come across knowing that the Hero doesn't natively support landscape home in Sense or the default android home.

When playing Raging Thunder 2 (Lite in my case), let the phone sleep (press end call), now wake the phone and unlock the screen. The phone is forced into landscape home until you correct it (hold phone portrait). This happens in both sense and the default android home, however Sense forcecloses.

Screenshots:

Adam
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ddotpatel:
Yep indeed,... tested what you said and you are indeed correct,... I tried this with the full paid version and had the same issue.

It is not an issue if just left idle on the game as the game does not allow the phone to go into into sleep mode,...

FIX: Download and install spare parts (it is free),... This is an excellent app which gives access to settings not available as standard.

Once installed, open app, go to "End button behavior",... select "Home, then sleep". Now if you are ever in an app (not on any one of your homescreens), when you press end, it will first take you home, then you have to press it again to put the phone in sleep mode.

I know its an extra button press but I do like to have it sleep only on the homescreen.

Peace.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] adamg89:
Good solution. I have spare parts set to sleep on end button by preference, but I see that would be a good solution. Plus yeah, how many people are going to press end to put phone to sleep whilst playing a game.

And this bug doesn't really bother me, just thought I'd share it.

Adam
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ddotpatel:
Its a good spot,... maybe worth letting the guys at Polarbit know.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] adamg89:
I posted a comment on the market. Hopefully they'll spot it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] etecdailey:
Sorry, but what kind of callendar app widget do you use? :)

It looks nice :D

Third pict.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] adamg89:
No worries. It's agenda widget, free from the market. My favourite out of all the ones I've tried.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] etecdailey:
Thx Adam,

Nice widg. allready downloaded =]

I'm using (i was ;) ) CalWidget (egg'n stones) - also nice looking.

Will compare those two - i thikn they are the best?!

Oh! And SlideScreen [larvalabs] too :D
[HD2 General] Robrecht:
... but I can't download it. After I enter my serial number, it says the software is not fit for my device. I highly doubt that, since it's a regular Dutch HD2 and I could download the previous update (1.66) just fine.

Could it be that they don't have the ROM file fully online yet?

I guess I'll try again later. If anyone has more success, please let me know.

http://www.htc.com/nl/supportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=920
[HD2 General] Robrecht:
I found out about it through the RSS feed for Dutch HD2 upgrades, but I just noticed it hasn't even shown up in their support news section yet. I guess I'll just have to wait.
[HD2 General] LittleH79:
It's a new Rom for Vodafone users, not for us default users ;)
[HD2 General] coolkast:
heheh, branded roms are not that fast as it should be :)
[HD2 General] Robrecht:
Thanks.

I just saw another post here that referred to it as the 'Vodafone 1.72 ROM' but I always figured HTC wouldn't put it on their own website then.

I guess they do.
[HD2 General] schaapjeblaat:
I experienced the same, I don't understand why they never post a decent description with their updates. That would probably relieve their own help desk too!

Thanks for the info.
[HD2 General] suicidal.banana:
To all (dutch) users, flash a new rom the moment you unbox your HD2 tbh, the default ones cant even send sms :rolleyes:
[HD2 General] henk-jan:
I disagree: it works fine
[HD2 General] djdave79:
That is with rom 1.43. not with rom 1.66.
[HD2 General] webjunky:
this new rom and the new fixes have been removed from the HTC site :confused:
[HD2 General] riemsesy:
I can't download the new rom either, though I have vodafone.

strange
[HD2 General] Filipek88:
To be found here: http://www.vodafone.nl/zakelijk/mob...il_op_uw_mobiel/support/windows_mobile_email/

Scroll a little bit lower and it's the first link under the Software tab. I am downloading it at the moment, so can't say anything about the quality improvements yet, because I first have to figure out what I am going to back up ;)
[HD2 General] coolkast:
could you tell me what is improved in the new update?
[HD2 General] Filipek88:
To be honest I don't know exactly, I only know the radio version is 2.07.51.22_2 and the Rom version is: 1.72.172.0

I hope the quality of the battery has improved, but I have just installed it and I am synchronizing at the moment so can't tell you much more
[HD2 General] seloz:
I have a vodafone nl htc hd2 but can't download it from the htc site.. with my sn..

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] etoy:

-mms

-soft reset

-wifi on/off

-bluetooth on/off

i found the exe's here on the forum,don't remember who did them so they're uncredited,sorry.

thanks anyways. the icons are taken from this beautiful pack from Lechux.

feel free to use it as you want,"thank you" is enough if you like it ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] shirreer:
Thank you for this useful contribution...

Thanks great addition to sense :)
[HD2 General] scv:
Hi,

I have encountered a problem. My phone when in router mode is not detected by other devices (tried two laptops and another phone with WiFi). I can use my HD2 to connect to wireless networks, but not to share mobile data via WiFi.

Any suggestions on how to solve the problem?

Thanks

(ROM 1.48 as there is no official update for my region)
[HD2 General] neil_swann80:
This may not help, but I had a similar issue of devices not seeing my wifi router as the network name I chose had a space in it, removing the space by adding an underscore instead allowed devices to then see the network.
[HD2 General] florio1960:
It works for me, THANKS !:)
[HD2 General] scv:
WOW - it did work for me too! Huge THANKS :)

Wonder why HTC set defaul network name with a space if it can cause such problems...
[HD2 General] dameon12:
you should change the title to [SOLVED] if that is possible. I bet there are some more people who have probs using that feature.
[HD2 General] nagagaya:
help

I have htc hd2 and made as wifi router and i need to connect with my desire hd

in desire hd it is not detecting any help please
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:
The HD2 only uses ADHOC connection when being used ad a WiFi router and if your Desire HD does not except ADHOC connections then you will not be abale to use the WiFi from your HD2. I do not know if the Desire HD will except a ADHOC connection or not, I will let you do the research on that. But I doubt that it does as ADHOC connections are primarily a computer to computer type connection.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] combat goofwing:
ive been using sense 2.1 roms for ages and to back up my bookmarks i just copy the opera.6adr file to my SDcard then one i put a new rom on copy it back into windows/opera9 and windows/opera9/profiles and they work fine

i am now using a 2.5 rom and tried this and it didnt work, how do you back up your book marks in sense .2.5 roms

thanks for any help
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] MCbrian:
Sense version shouldn't affect Opera bookmarks.

Are you using a new/different version of Opera? Like an Opera 10 beta or final? Opera 10 doesn't use the opera.6adr any more, it uses Profile/Datastorage/__/all.dat for bookmarks.

Or establish/sync bookmarks with Opera online and use Opera Link.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] da9th_one:
the "myphone" app backs up bookmarks...
[HD2 General] linuxis:
If you do pinch to zoom for aplication that is in Virtual Destop white list

you get kind of toucpad area on the screen.

Usually if you move insde the touchpad window the screen also follow you finger.

In my case I get the window if i pinch, but can't move arround the window in the toucpad area.

I checked other HD2 TouchGL registry key. Seems that keys are the same.

Any ideas ? At this moment I know one - hard reset. No idea what changes are the source of the problem.
[HD2 General] linuxis:
Backup and restore helped. Magic. Done nothing jus restored the same backup that did minute before.....

I had an idea to hard reset - copy some "Touch" related registry keys, restore backup and apply these keys. But it is not needed, just the backup helped.

So keep that in mind. I think that some system things, that backup do not affect were recreated after hard reset.
[HD2 General] EgoMaximus:
Does it really work for anyone? I've tried both of those check boxes and it did not close anything anyway.
[HD2 General] Mikulec:
try Ameba.
[HD2 General] rickyoon.vegas:
Holding the X works for me.

Sorry but I can't help you.
[HD2 General] Archer:
I have mine on "End programs by tapping X" and it works for me. It was literally the first thing I installed when I got my HD2.
[HD2 General] alkorsi:
Hi together,

Where can I find these settings?

Thanks,

alkorsi
[HD2 General] digitalhater:
How did you get to that screen? Where do you find these settings?

Thanks a lot!!
[HD2 General] EgoMaximus:
Settings > System > Task Manager

1.66 Official Rom

Or some other place, can't find this setting anymore :confused:
[HD2 General] Archer:
You need a task manager installed, such as Touch X Task Manager or Dutty's Task Manager (the one I use :))

You drop down the task list in Sense and click the wrench icon to open the settings screen (that screen).
[HD2 General] EgoMaximus:
Oh, this woulld explain it then, I have uninstalled mine :-)
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] hengelo:
Hi,

'm Trying wm 6.5 on my touch to it, but walking down to a problem of a bar in the screen, just below the task bar. it is to get away after a reset, but return again and again.:mad:

Any ideas where to look.

gr,

ruud
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] cruiserrr:
maybe if you explain which rom and so on, somebody may help you. Even better if you post in the thread where you took the rom from.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] Alex-V:
i think it´s an problem with titanium...

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] hengelo:

[General Accessories] B1ny:
Just received 4 of these with a 30 cm cable between the connectors, and none of them works. They didn't cost more than around 4$ for all including shipment, but I would still like to inform you guys. And with this bad quality, who knows to what pin they have connected and send the 5 volts.
[General Accessories] Semseddin:
I am using the following adapter for years, great quality and reasonable price from motorola.

[HD2 General] Juv3nileR3j3ct:
Well we all know that the Facebook application comes standard when you get the T-Mobile version phone. Well, there's a problem with the application off the bat, it does not load people's profiles or "walls". I can view my home page, pictures, friends but not their profile. I went to T-Mobile cause I couldn't find anything on the forums and he said to uninstall it and re-install it, so I did and it still doesn't work... anyone find out on how to fix it? Its kind of annoying tbh....
[HD2 General] XerBom:
I never tried the application that came with the phone. Instead, I downloaded the Facebook app from the marketplace, and I have not had any problem bringing up other peoples profile. In fact, if I "click" on a name, a little window pops up that says "View Profile" that takes me straight to it.
[HD2 General] digitalhater:
Can you guys see videos that are posted by some of your friends on the mobile app?
[Touch 3G General] daga_110681:
Hi,

i upgraded my HTC TOUCH 3G to WM6.5 rom 2.33.721.31(Core21895) and i notice that the 3G icon is no longer appearing. pls advice

thanks!
[HD2 General] Grantzxr:
After weeks of calling O2 and moaning on and on about the locked old 1.43 rom today I have been told by O2 we WILL finaly have a new rom (i guess 1.72) last day of march! :)
[HD2 General] shagster69:
Finally ;)
[HD2 General] MalekoUK:
We were suppose to have it 2 weeks ago...I wont be holding my breath about this...we will see...
[HD2 General] SMS92:
Unbelievable how long it's taken o2 to give people an official upgrade. Thank the lord for xda-devs, eh? HSPL & freedom all the way!
[HD2 General] yustheman:
i bet its 1.66 rom o2 are really slacking at the moment....
[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:
Any clues where it will be available to download?
[HD2 General] chris10230:
Really now so what is this the third or fourth date that we have heard. I will believe it when i see it as they say.

and yes I am pessimistic, especially when it comes to O2 and updates...

Also MidnightDraven it will be on the HTC site or may HTC Pedia, if it gets leaked....
[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:
Ahh good. thanks for that.

Lets hope it turns up then.
[HD2 General] Neville.Holland:
I doubt 1.72 .. It's incredibly frustrating dealing with them. I understand the reasons, but they don't help at all. And after all this waiting, chances are that they have only been looking at 1.48 and 1.66....... O2 suck.:mad:
[HD2 General] l3mm:
It's about bloody time too - I just hope they actually keep to their word this time

Has anyone else confirmed this? I'll try give 'em a ring after work later.......£10 says they will tell me a different date!
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
At least they might understand you when you mention "ROM" or "Update" as they thought I wanted a new phone, even after explaining it in an email with links to HTC's ROM updates.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Are O2 usually so bad at releasing ROMs? I have personally never flashed one before, but i've waited, as you all have, ages for an official update.
[HD2 General] chris10230:
Yeh they are :D

got the wrong thread a little...
[HD2 General] Beefheart:
I must be missing something here but.....who cares? I have an O2 Leo and the only time I would consider using an official O2 rom is if I was returning it for repair like I had to recently.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
Well I would like to flash my first ROM, and preferably one I know for sure will work. So I am quietly optimistic about the new ROM and the features it will have on it. Otherwise I will probably sit with the one I have for a bit longer before considering using a cooked ROM.
[HD2 General] Beefheart:
Install HSPL and flash any rom you want. Providing you follow the instructions there is absolutely no need to use a network rom, none of them can hold a candle to a decent cooked rom. You will probably never see WM 6.5.5 on any official network rom yet there are various cooked roms that offer the opportunity to experience Windows Mobile and capacitive screens working reasonably well together for the first time. Xannytech's Evolution 1.4 which I'm using is just one of them.
[HD2 General] Kalavere:
I think you have been the catalyst in my trying a new ROM, I have HSPL installed now and I am going to have a look around for a ROM to suit me.

Oh and by the way, loving the avatar, Bill is a legend! :D
[HD2 General] onejk:
any more news on if this just mightbe genuine?
[HD2 General] djingonthenet:
Good luck, t-mobile promissed us the same thing by the end of this month and we got given the original ROM (1.43) probably because they thought , nobody will know it's not an update :rolleyes:

I thought sod it so flashed hardspl and then the official HTC rom (1.66), gone from rebooting the thing 5+ times a day to once every 3 days or so (which I can live with)
[HD2 General] TheHutt:
They already released 1.72 for German O2.
[HD2 General] SMS92:
I feel for anyone who bought a Leo through their provider, like o2, and have it locked down to old, buggy firmware.

Seriously, HSPL it and flash it to something else. You might think that the custom roms here are probably unstable and not officially supported when in truth there are dozens of roms to choose from, even ones that are identical to the stock roms but with the enhancements/fixes we all want or need -- OH, and you'll have better support here with the custom roms than you will from your provider and HTC put together.

AND -- it'll only void your warranty until you flash an 'official' rom back via a microSD card.

A small risk, but absolutely worth it. You'll have practically on the spot support here from everyone so what are you waiting for? o2 to fix things for you?
[HD2 General] mike63uk:
So it's the end of the month, does anybody have any news?
[HD2 General] MalekoUK:
non non non...and I dont expect any...complete waste of time with O2
[HD2 General] mike63uk:
No sign of a new ROM, so another missed date. Why do O2 even bother giving out dates, why don't they just admit that they don't care about their customers and the quality of the phones they sell.
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
I was hoping this ROM would be available. I need to flash back to an o2 rom and remove hspl for warranty purposes after easter.
[HD2 General] chris10230:
heres a link to the 1.43 o2 one if you get desperate but also i just want an update...

http://www.4shared.com/dir/22189940/b8552fa0/Shipped_Leo_ROMs.html
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
thanks my man.
[HD2 General] Grantzxr:
O2 cs rep phoned me directly today why I was at work, very sorry sir but the new rom we promised for your htc hd2 has not passed our O2 testing......to be honest I felt very sorry for her as she clearly was well aware that O2 are a bunch of cowboys who dont give a S*** about the few customers they locked down.

Any way after explaining all the same faults over again to her and pointing out again vodaphone customers now had access to 1.66 the same as O2 customers from CPW/P4U now I am on the top of the customer complaits list but she was unable to offer any new faulse date today.

Will kep you all posted.
[HD2 General] MalekoUK:
So in other words, whatever they were doing to the official rom, they royally screwed it up.
[HD2 General] loady:
Is there a program i can install on my hd2 that will allow me to play videos accross my wireless network from my NAS server ??..none of the media players seem to let me browse over the wifi to my home network.
