[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedysilwady:
lmao theres a lot of kangbangin over here o.O;;

but thanks to everyone who enlightened me about this topic through all the kanging taking place, and thanks to anderweb for his awesome launcher!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedysilwady:
eek! i honestly dont like the home button idea. maybe you could make the launcher similar to the sense style launcher, by replacing the dots with a slider like sense has and making it look like a pull up tab with a button in the center to bring out the app drawer, and at the center just above the button you could pull up on it (like a regular launcher) and itd show the previews...a lot quicker and easier to navigate through the screens than your current launcher if you ask me...maybe i can draw up a concept and put it up here...
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnderWeb:
Yeah, a concept would help to clarify that amount of words... :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedysilwady:
Tonight ill make something really quick and dirty to show my idea. Basically its like your current launcher, with no dots, but it has a slider instead like htc sense ui, and on top of the app drawer opener (in your case the square nexus icon) you can have a pullout drawer on top of the nexus icon that shows the preview screens. Anyways ill draw it up tonight lol
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnderWeb:
Have you tried my latest beta? I've done what i posted previously... needs more work, but it's a start point :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedysilwady:
no i havent ill check it out in a bit.

here are 2 crude concept launchers i made:

In both concepts the center button serves the same purpose as the nexus launcher icon [::::] touch it to bring up the app drawer. the screen indicator is right above the center launcher button.

in concept 1 you slide the tab above the circle to pull out the home screen preview.

in concept 2 you slide the the left tab up to see the home screen preview, and the right tab to bring up 4 or so apps like some modified nexus one launchers have that replace the dots.

i hope i explained it clear enough lol. what do you guys think?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnderWeb:
That's a good idea! Loving the concepts. You definitaly should move it into my launcher thread, cause my next plans fort it includes some of your ideas and maybe there we can get more feedback than here...

Good work mate!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedysilwady:
thanks! sure bro, i wanna make a few more pics based off of concept 2. (since concept 1 is pretty easy to visualize the tab opened. and when im done ill post it in your thread.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedysilwady:

Currently I have a Verizon TP2 running WM 6.5x, I cannot sync with my college exchange server for my email. (error security certificate on server is not valid) I have spent countless hours googling and forum searching

I did notice that when I was running verizons wm 6.5 I was allowed to sync, after selecting "yes" on the sync anway question box that popped up. Apparently this must be 6.5x issue. No matter how many 6.5x custom roms I flash they all have this one problem in common.

Anyone know of a work around tor 6.5x?

You are not alone with this problem, see http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=6118508 and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=662178

So it seems to be a wider problem :-(

I wrote to HTC support 3 times in last 2 weeks about this problem, but till now no response from them. Maybe you should also send a question to HTC about this issue.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] JEANRIVERA:
any one with a new solution?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] danielo:
I wrote to HTC support but without any reasonable answer or solution :-(. Maybe you should do the same and everybody who has such a problem. that should be a way to create some pressure on HTC.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Labarum:
Yeah I had this problem too... 3 things... Find the "QuickGPS" update... settings > location settings... htc location service (checked) and turned on, google location service turned on.

then if all else fails try this .cab from this thread on HTCPedia

This will usually get the weather working which is a sure sign GPS is working!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] JEANRIVERA:
is there something similar to this but for AT&T since that file has T-mobile settings
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] outerdepth:
Hey, Tried It

So I am not sure how to turn on google location service. So, I don't know if that is still causing me to not update location.

I did install your cab to main memory and soft reset the phone, but I had no luck.

I am running an Energy 23557 Sense 2.5 cookie home tab Apr 14 Rom. Please, please help. I have seen this my location work 1 time. I have absolutely no idea how it did and cannot get it to do it again, any help is GREATLY appreciated.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] outerdepth:
Update

I am a moron, I have been avoiding flashing a new radio, cause I am weird when it comes to things I haven't tried before, but now my location works.

I flashed the 4.49.25.57 radio for T-Mobile and now my location updates perfectly. Thanks to all that have put up posts on this site.

Below is the link for the page that shows all the newer radios. After much thought and listening to others who have flashed new radios. Everyone needs to do this. The stock radios SUCK.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Are you still running the original tmobile 6.1 ROM? I certainly understand if you are (I only recently stepped to 6.5 myself)...but the .57 radio is the one that comes standard on the tmo 6.5 upgrade, so most tmo users probably have it already. However, I've heard of the .57 giving the same improvements to Tilt2 and custom ROM users as well...so for any GSM users wanting to try other radios, that is proably the best one to start with.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] outerdepth:
Yes Sir

Yeah, check my sig. I am running a newer Energy ROM and it doesn't come with the radio we're talking about. But, yeah, this IS totally the best radio out there, hands down, if you are a T-Mo user at least.:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Did you happen to notice any improvement in your GPS reception after you flashed the new radio? I'm suspecting that the reason the new radio cleared up the my location issue is because of better GPS performance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] outerdepth:
once again yes sir

I noticed a dramatic improvement. I don't have the lag behind issue. Not that it was much when driving, but now it's basically non existant. My google maps, bing, trapster, weather radar, all of them find my gps signal 100 times faster than before. It's truly amazing to me how much difference a new radio makes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
I'm glad it's made such an improvement all around for you, that rocks!

You may have seen it already, but make sure you check out my thread about the cab I found to fine-tune GPS for tmo users. It sounds like you may have it dialed in ok already, but this is just one more way to help get optiumum results ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jelmah:
I think I found the sollution for this problem.

1: Go to settings tab

2: Go to more

3 Go to connections

4: Click on connections

5: Click on excisting connections

6: click on edit

7: Click next

8: Delete the name of your portal (portalmmm or something like that, it ends with mmm, thats what i remembered)

9: click next

10: click finish.

Now just update your gps using quickgps, and if all is well, the gps should work again!

Goodluck!

Android is not based on a registry system (not like Windows, and Windows mobile) Android is based on Linux kernel, which uses files system.

regarding the off/on... is your reception low or fluctuating? maybe its just that the reception is very low, how many reception bars you get

Had similar on mine. Could make calls, but no one could call me without getting various error messages.

T-Mobile sent a reset / update to the sim card and it has been fine since.
[Desire General] farnsbarns:
try shocking the phone...

just remove the battery without shutting down.

if that doesn't help try doing this during a call.

failing that try it again but this time, after removing the battery, remove the sim, power up. kill it buy pulling battery and then power back on.

Hey all,

I need alittle help, And yes I looked but nothing is giving me a clear answer in my searches and doesnt seem to be helping me find a way to do this to test things out.

I have been really annoyed with the 2.5 HTC Message Bug/Lag/Error/Whatever, and I have been searching thru the EU rom for hours/days, and I wanted to try some things out, but I've run across a problem. I am testing out possibly seeing is maybe the problem is maybe xml pages, so I want to play around with them and find the association as to why hitting the send key loads the msgs instantly while not doing so takes forever to load. I have a spare tp2 to do testing. But when I try to replace xml pages, it will deny me from doing so. for example, I was trying to replace the htcMsgbox.xml but everytime I try I get this error:

A system file name "htcmsgbox" already exists replacing old file with new file, I say yes, then I get this msg: "Cannot copy "htcmsgbox" access denied.

Obviously its a system file and cant be replace by normal means, so my question is how does one replace these files? I tried total commander to try and open the file to edit it, but that failed too. So can someone tell me how it can be done if at all? I even tried going into the bootloader to see if I could replace files, but that didnt work too, and searching here unless you hit the right keyword isnt giving me an answer.

I guess my question is how to replace any system file be it XML or exe, I know some can be done by disabling Manila, but how of the others?

Thanx for the response.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
I believe that the only way to get at those ROM-locked files, is to open it up in a kitchen...and even then I'm not sure that everything is accessbile
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] AngelDeath:
Would the SDKCert cab allow me to replace the XML pages? I would think that when you reboot the phone and go to the home screen the Msging app isnt loaded so why would the xml pages be locked from being changed, when there is other xml pages for other apps in the system not loaded and you can alter them? I am not a programmer right off the bat, but I noticed little stupid things which knowing how Windows works would cause programs or aml pages that would normally seem okay because it runs, window would run it slower because it cant translate something that didnt even have anything to do with the mail xml page or the program, and I found a couple of xml pages that have these stupid errors and thought of replacing them to see if that could be the case, I can copy them off the phone fine, but I cant replace them to test my theories out.

Help!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
You generally can overwrite ROM files with the same file name in the same directory. If you want to modify a file, copy it to your storage card, change the properties to not be "read only", then copy it back to the former location.

This won't work for any system files that are actually in use.

In your case, it appears that "htcmsgbox" is being used by the system. I think you might be able to get past this particular one by disabling the HTC notifications system. Do a search - it is a registry mod.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] AngelDeath:
Okay the notification system you wouldnt be by chance talking about the events notification for sms mms email reminders would you? And I made the change on my desktop then copied it back to storage and then tried to overwrite the file, but I did change the attrib back to read only before trying to copy it back...

Most of the XML pages used by HTC is in use

sigh....

I was looking for the same thing last night (eventually found the XDA specific version), but I did find out that the reason the full version doesn't appear is because Google haven't authorized the Desire ROM as "legitimate" yet. This means that any apps that the developers flags as copy protected won't show up, such as Tapatalk, ShapeWriter and a bunch of others.

They did the same thing with the Hero when it was first released and took them some time to fix it. Unfortunately the ball is in Google's court so there's nothing we can do but wait. :-/

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmelchert:
thanks :D thats good to know!
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feld:
I know most of you are not Linux users so let me break this down for you:

EXT2: Very basic filesystem when it comes down to it -- think of it as a Unix filesystem you could place inbetween the likes of FAT32 and NTFS. I would nearly argue that this is the modern equivalent of FAT32 (which really really needs to die). We really shouldn't be using FAT32 but lack of native windows compatibility stops EXT2 from being a candidate for this usage.

EXT2 is highly recommended for your flash card. It won't over stress it and there aren't many alternatives that are better these days unless you're dealing with raw flash, which you'd then use something like YAFFS2 or JFFS2. The flash in compact flash cards is not raw flash.

EXT3: Picture EXT2 with a journal. It is backwards compatible with EXT2 (just doesn't read the journal).

A journal is NOT recommended for flash devices. (At least when the filesystem was not designed for raw flash and isn't tuned properly like YAFFS2 and JFFS2). Do you really want your phone to write all the metadata to the journal first and then to the filesystem? That's a ton of unnecessary I/O. If it has full journaling enabled you're writing all your data twice. This is not a good idea for your phone. This is one reason why NTFS has not become a standard for flash devices: Journals on flash are bad unless it's designed for flash from the ground up.

EXT4: same as EXT3 but is a copy-on-write FS with delayed allocation (holds data in memory longer before writing to disk to be more efficient / prevent fragmentation), increased number of files and size of files (more than a phone ever could need in our lifetime), etc. Some improvements across the board but not backwards compatible with EXT3 anymore if you're using the delayed allocation. Most likely to eat more memory on your phone.

This is completely unnecessary for a phone and really does not fit your needs. I don't understand why anyone would attempt to use this unless they simply thought "4 is bigger than 2 or 3 so it must be better!"

So there you have it. I may have forgotten a minor detail here or there, but this is the gist of it.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danknee:
Nice explanation.

You left out the part about how apps load faster from RAM then they do from any sd card. :) The people running slower sd cards especially may potentially be experiencing a performance decrease due to a2sd.

I have abandoned a2sd because after I load every app that I use, (plus 10 random ones) I still have room left. Then I use the extra half a gig on my sd card for another 5 cds worth of music.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcarpenter:
I had never thought about this before. It makes a good point, flash memory dies after x ammount of Reads and Writes. Given it's mostly in the 100 millions, but it does more reading and writing than you would think it does, and you are effectivly killing the memory card twice as fast.

Good thing these things are relativly cheap. :D
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmelchert:
this is all really good to know. thanks. i spent $100 on my sd card so maybe i should just foemat the whole thing to fat32.. (its class 10) while you guys are here, what exactly is the use of swap?

Sent from my HERO200 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kcarpenter:
SWAP = Page file in the Linux world. From what I have read (This may have changed since then) We don't have the ability to use Swap yet.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feld:
You're right -- apps do load faster from RAM. However, when you're not using a2sd the applications are not on the phone in "RAM". They're in a flash chip inside the phone -- just like on your sd card. The performance should be nearly the same when you're using a2sd as it is when you're not using it.

The only reasons why a2sd should be slower are:

1) You have a cheap, slow SD card

2) The interface from the SD card to the phone is cheap and slower than the internal flash chip's interface. It was just a cheap design choice the manufacturer made.

3) The internal flash is simply faster from it being a better flash chip
