The pictures and videos tab

Go to the pictures and videos tab.

Go to albums lower left.

Go to albums again on lower left and this wilol bring up a list of all of your pics and videos on both device and storage card.

Click the one you wish to play and from there it will use the HTC player by default.

Ugly route, but it works.

Tried to watch transformers 2 earlier today. About every 5 mins the video would pause and the top and bottom bars that show menu, and connection and battery.

It didn't break anything. I could resume the video but i got annoyed with the constant breaking of immersion.

Anyone got a fix?
[HD2 General] 10332007:
How many things are running in the background while you are trying to watch the video? If you open anything even if you click okay or back it is most likely still there in the background until you end the task. Get too many running and the whole phone will bog down.

[Nexus One General] rimrocka0834:
Hello All,

I just recently purchased the AT&T nexus one and I just want to make sure my understanding of my question is correct or not. I have noticed that when I am at my house and if I have 3g enabled the signal bars next to the 3g icon are somewhere between 2-4 bars and are always fluctuating, But if i enable the option for use only 2G networks obviously the H or 3g icon disappear and the EDGE icon shows up but the signal strength is at a full 5 bars all the time not fluctuating. It was my understanding that the signal strength bars were completely seperate from the 3g or 2g icons. I thought that the signal strength bars represent my cell signal and whatever icon showed up was the data coverage in the area but they aren't related? Is this correct or is it that the signal strength bars represent the signal of the 3g or 2g?
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
The signal strength bar represents the 2g or3g signal strength.
[Nexus One General] jerrycycle:
Both of you are correct. To make calls or text the signal bars are need to use data the icons are needed.
[Nexus One General] rimrocka0834:
But you don't make calls on 3g or edge. So I don't understand why the signal strength bars are lower when on 3g as opposed to edge unless its wat the first Guy said. And that doesn't seem correct cause that's basically saying my cell service is worse and I would have a higher chance of getting dropped or no calls at all when I am on 3g as opposed to edge.
[Nexus One General] jamiefly:
not sure about your networks but on every other 3G network you make both call and data,,,:confused:
[Nexus One General] gsvnet:
A couple of notes here:

- All you're seeing here is that 3G service is weaker than 2G/EDGE service at your house. Perhaps there are more EDGE towers around you than 3G-enabled towers, or EDGE runs on a lower frequency such as 850MHz that penetrates through walls better.

- If your 3G service completely drops out, you should fall back to EDGE during the call. There shouldn't be any interruption, but there's a small chance that the call will drop when this happens.

The latter happens to me on TMO all the time if I go into weak 3G, and I've never had a dropped call or issue because of it - so really, as long as you have solid EDGE service, phone calls shouldn't be a problem for you. Note that when you fall back to EDGE, you can't use data while on the call, but if you're still on 3G, it's possible to do so. You can of course combat by this by just using wifi.

Now, on the other hand, AT&T's 3G network is overloaded in some markets, so you may have a dropped call because of that - but that's a different issue altogether.
[Nexus One General] rimrocka0834:
gsvnet thanks a lot! Cleared up everything I was wondering.

[Networking] AlainL:
Hi,

I got a problem that makes me crazy.

I leave in Switzerland, near the border with France.

As in Switzerland GSM transmitter have lower power than in France, my HD2 switch very often to french network and don't come back to home one (even when home network is stronger than french one).

In phone settings, I set "network selection" to Manual.

But phone seems to ignore this settings, and as soon as home network is unavailable, it switch to roaming, without asking ... And never come back to home network till roaming network is unavailable too (which is rare, due to stronger power).

Any one got an idea why manual network selection is not working ?

For your information, I always had this problem since I got a HTC with WM5/6

(got it with my Touch and my Diamond)

Another option could be to completly disable roaming (any way can be used), and when travelling, I can switch roaming back on.

Is this possbile ?

Thanks

my configuration is in my signature
[Hero CDMA General] scirio:
I loved that Android 1.5 on my stock Hero let you sync whichever contact groups you wanted to your phone (from your Google contacts of course). I use groups heavily and this was perfection. The groups of people I need to talk to rotate each month so I just either check or uncheckmark their sync preference.

I just installed DamageControl v1.0 and my only group sync options are pretty weak:

- Only Contacts with Phone number

- Google (meaning all "My Contacts")

-- Show auto GMail contacts (meaning show all contacts, even the automatically created ones. Garbage)

- Phone (locally stored)

- Facebook (no thanks, dont know them that well.)

Way to step backwards. Please tell me this is fixed in the DamageControl 2.0 Sprint Leak.

[Hero CDMA General] energizer1389:
Lucky you. When I go to people, groups and press menu, all I the options I get are: "Add Group" and "Delete Group". I have 25 different groups. I hear people like you talking about group sync options but Ive never seen them. Am I missing something????. Im running DamageControl V1.
[Hero CDMA General] scirio:
So you go to the People app, select the Groups tab, then click Menu and you don't see a 'Sync Groups' button?

Which ROM are you running or are you stock?
[Hero CDMA General] energizer1389:
Im running DamageControl V1. Yes all my contacts are in Google and being synced. I have no idea whats the issue with the group syncing on my phone.

[Hero CDMA General] cormie:
Hi,

I have the same problem with my HTC desire. Have been trying to resolve it for days now with no luck.

The problem is that I have NO "Sync Group" option under the "People" app group tab, all I have is "add group" or "delete group".

There's a more detailed thread on it here: androidcommunity.com/forums/f7/sync-one-group-of-contacts-only-with-android-htc-desire-34318/ with all avenues exhausted.

As you can see, I'm at a dead end at the moment and would appreciate any help whatsoever
[Hero CDMA General] 98classic:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beachdemon:
This is a weird, weird problem I can't seem to find anywhere else apart from the MoDaCo forums, which is funny because the problem started after I flashed MCR 3.2, but all the fixes in that thread aren't working for me.

Basically, since flashing MCR 3.2, I no longer get a 3G/'H' data icon in the notification bar AT ALL. In the phone status information it says I am connected to Orange 3G, but it doesn't work - using the browser it says 'no mobile connection found'. WiFi works fine. At first I thought I could just reflash another ROM/the radio again (I'm using the latest one) but nope, 3G appears to be dead. I've tried 4 different ROMs covering everything from 1.5 to 2.1 Legend dumps to no avail.

I've never had a problem like this before... anyone know of any possible fixes I could try?

Cheers.

P.S. I'm using a GSM HTC Hero on Orange.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
hold power button down, check if mobile network is activated.

the 3g/h icons become active when you have an active data session. so it is possible that your are attached to a 3g network, but don't see it because you are not data attached, only voice.

Before you guys flame and say search, I've already searched and tried the supplied cabs, and registry edits, Im wondering if there's any type of fix for this thing.

It's not hours ahead like others, but probably secs off when recieving texts, I'd send a message around say 1:05am, then about 2mins later recieve a text @ 1:05 but my text is under the new text.

[Touch HD General] fluffiey:
When something gets deleted on a harddrive it's still there. It only gets deleted when it's overwritten with something else so most of your sms can probably be recovered with a data recovery tool. Try not to add/change anything on the phone until you've restored your sms.

Hi! So while I wait for my Desire to ship (supposedly on the 7th), here's a question for those who already have the phone.

Are there any other social networks you can add to be updated in FriendStream? I know the defaults are Facebook, Twitter and Flickr - can we add, for instance, Picasa or Buzz or Blogger or Tumblr to be included in the feed?

I tried searching elsewhere but no tangible answers came up, I'm hoping some of you could enlighten me :)

FriendStream only supports social network apps native to HTC phones. They include Facebook, Flickr, Twitter (Peep), and Plurk.

Hi everyone. I had a problem with my Leo this morning. It didn't change the time automatically an hour ahead for Daylight Saving Time but I had to change it manually. I live in Italy and so in the time zone GMT +1.

any issue about that?

thank for replies

Bye
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Same here... and if I set it manually, it resyncs back to the wrong time itself... And I can't even cheat by changing timezone, it's greyed out...
[HD2 General] Archer:
Do you use the "Internet time sync" option? (Settings tab, Data services, Internet time sync.)

Mine changed automatically for me this morning, which was great since I'd totally forgotten about it and would have gone to work late tomorrow ;)
[HD2 General] pepesz:
I had the same problem :(

But this works only when you connect to internet? My Trinity changed time at 2am:) HD2 didn't...
[HD2 General] Archer:
It uses your data connection. You don't have to "connect" to the internet to do it.
[HD2 General] kilrah:

[HD2 General] MidnightDraven:

[HD2 General] cMMY69:

I think it must be a registry key.

My wife is using Freyberry's Rom it it updated fine. If I go to the clock options and pull it back to 00:59:50, when the clock changes to 01:00 I'm getting the info that the clock has been updated to daylight saving time, and the clock goes to 02:00.

I'm using NRG's EnergyRom, and if I do the same procedure nothing happens, the clock stays at 01:00. Does anyone have any idea how to fix it?

We are both using WM 6.5.5.

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 General] speed200:
I think this problem is related with Mylocation update´s.

For example, my clock is set to the current Portuguese time but if I enable Mylocation and make a weather update the clock turns back one hour.

This was since last night when hour changes to summer time.

Now I must have mylocation disable...so this is a Google´s problem related with mylocation.:mad:
[HD2 General] mcnascimento:
I´m with the same problem, but I already find the bug, if I have the dummy alarm active, p.e. the one created by g-alarm or cradle alarm, the change doesn't hapen, but if I disable that alarm the change happen fine.
[HD2 General] speed200:
So for now we cant have mylocation working like before correct?
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Seems to be OK for me now, they probably fixed it during the day...
[HD2 General] speed200:
Not here in Portugal, if I enable mylocation and make a weather update the clock goes back to winter time (-1h)

For example, right now it is 19:07 at Portugal when I enable Mylocation and do a weather update the clock turn back to 18:07.:mad::mad::mad:
[HD2 General] TheNinja:
I live in Denmark and had the problem, too. It's working now.

I disabled the location service in Settings, then manually put the clock one hour ahead (so it had the correct time), and turned the location service back on.

Now it keeps the right time, even after updating the weather, receiving SMS messages, and updating the time through gTimeSync (a free program that syncs the time over the Internet).

I think it is working because this morning when I synced with gTimeSync, it would repeatedly tell me that my phone time ("local time") was 1 hour off. After disabling/enabling the location service, it had the right "local time".

I'm not sure whether the disabling/enabling or Google fixing the problem did the magic, but it works for me now (I hope :p)
[HD2 General] mamv:
Thanks for the info mcnascimento. Just disabled G-Alarm and it worked correctly.

EDIT: It's not a G-Alarm problem, the same thing happens when you use the default Windows Mobile alarm. Can you please confirm?
[HD2 General] mcnascimento:
Yes, that's right. I already tried with sence, titanium and even without any today plugin, just to test and in fact the thing causing this bug is have some alarm on the Windows Mobile, if you use an app that can define a alarm but doesn't show the information on the WM standart alarm, p.e. spb time, you see that the alarm works and even the time change fine acording to daylight saving.

Know, the only thing is to find a way to solve.
[HD2 General] mamv:
What WM Build are you using? On my wifes Phone she has build 28014 and everything works fine. I'm using build 23549 and I'm having this problem. Maybe it only happens with builds 23***.

I'm using build 21xxx, but already tried on wm 6.1 and happens the same.

Did anyone try to contact HTC support? Or Google´s support?
[HD2 General] tfouto:
why Google? What google has to do it with? i think the problem is just from HTC.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Because the location service is provided by Google, and it seemed to be causing the problem.
[HD2 General] Christian238:
I had the same problem (UK), and can confirm that it was caused by G-Alarm. I uninstalled it (didn't like it anyway), and all is fine now.
[HD2 General] robyr78:
Hi guys. I can confirm that "my" problem was caused by G-Alarm. I unistalled G-Alarm, set the date at 28 March and time at 1:59 AM. At 2:00 am a message told me that the time was updated due to the DST time. So I think I solved my problem. Thanks to all who wrote some kind of solutions.
[HD2 General] mamv:
I'm not sure the problem is caused by G-Alarm. Have you tryed creating an normal alarm, and test the DST change?

I think it's another Windows Alarm problem, and not a G-Alarm specific problem.
[HD2 General] robyr78:
yes. I restored a backup done with SPB Backup and I had some alarms set and other software installed. I tried to change date and time as first thing after the restore and it works. I have 3 alarms set and no problem now with DST. I think, even if i can't understand why, my problem was caused by G-alarm (with other win mobile phone I hadn't any problems). who knows?
[HD2 General] mamv:
I have problems with normal alarms also. Really strange.
[HD2 General] robyr78:
you're right. it's really strange. In fact I've looked at other posts where someone pointed out problems even without G-Alarm installed. I think in my case G-Alarm locked the "clock database " someway. I can't explain that in other way. So I ask you : did you try even after a clean hard reset? In that case there are some ROMS with DST bug
[HD2 General] mamv:
When using the default alarm, I'm getting two different scenarios:

1 - If the alarm is visible on Sense Homepage, I'm not getting the DST change.

2 - If the alarm is not visible on Sense Homepage (don't know why this happens), I'm getting the DST change.

When I use G-Alarm, the alarm is always visible on Sense though I'm not getting the DST change.
[HD2 General] tfouto:
is this so? what service by the way? The Internet Clock Sync isn't an HTC service? The problem seems to be in the world clock database.
[HD2 General] xavierdemon:
My HD2 didn't update the time, I changed it myself but the receive time on my SMS and email are now wrong by one hour, used a REG entry to correct the SMS time:

HKLM\Software\OEM\Phonesetting\

Added new D-Word 'TrustTimeZoneField=0'

This has fixed the SMS incorrect recieve time but Emails are still wrong. I do have G-Alarm installed, will remove and see if this corrects the issue.

Update: removing G-Alarm seems to have fixed the issue for me, will remove the REG entry now as well. Will contact G-Alarm support, to see if they have fix for this strange problem.

I've already corrected the city but it didn't work. (Thanks anyway.) If I select London, I will have the weather for London AND still I cannot sync with Birdiesync (Thunderbird 3). I get a note saying the time zones do not match.

I've tried many things. The last one almost worked: I set my location to London and deleted Lisbon from the World Clock Cities. Reset. Then, I added Lisbon through "Add city". Et voila: Lisbon came up with the correct time and synchronization worked smoothly!

HOWEVER... when I soft-reset the phone, it all comes back to previous: Lisbon has the wrong time and I can not sync!

Suggestions? Registry record? If so how to look for it?

Thanks.

This is anoying

I am too living in Portugal and I am experiencing the same problem. I have allready tried the updates from Microsoft and it does not work.

I tried disabling internet sync but then the timezone of other countries are wrong too. For instance, my home country the Netherlands, it shows a time difference of two hours wich is incorrect.

I have sent an email to HTC contactus@htc.com reporting the problem and asking for a fix. I suggest others do the same.
