ChasDun:

This might sound crazy, but I recently did a hard reset to get rid of a lot of junk and it worked fine. After I loaded TomTom Navigator 7 I started seeing this problem. Someone on the Tmobile forums said that another reason is that TouchFlo loads all the music & photos you have when it is loading at start up. They said to un check the music tab and photos tab on HTC touch flo. Do you think TomTom might have to do with it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
Actually, I have both MS and Plus. I use some of the components of Plus, but MS is my primary interface. I just prefer it. However you are correct about less memory; Plus is using only the stock WM 6 interface. The biggest issue I have with mine is how much CPU time the built in WM apps (messaging, word, excel) use, and how long it takes for the CPU to return off 100% once these apps are used. And don't get me started on how those apps leak memory...

If you noticed the photos of the N1 and Desire speakers...they are located at exactly the same place, they have the same sizes and forms and they are both attached by the same joint. Still people who tried both devices said the Desire is much louder so I wonder if we could just replace the N1 speaker with the Desire's one???

Hello all

I'm looking to get a Legend on Vodafone but can see that you get Vodafone 360 pre-installed. I was wondering if this interfere's with the phone and / or apps or whether you can basically ignore or uninstall it to get a "pure" android experience.

Cheers

K
[Legend General] dlau77:
Well, I myself just got the Legend on Vodafone and can safely say... no, the Vodafone interference is minimal, like... 2 widgets installed on the default scene. But HTC have provided their own scene which is identical, but removes those 2 widgets.

I basically just ignore the 360 stuff.
[Legend General] sjaak1234:
Probably a stupid question, but isnt it possible to just flash a official htc rom to the legend to remove all the vodafone stuff? Or doesnt it work this way with android? (still on WM)

I will also be getting a Legend from Vodafone and I defenitly do not want all the extra crap providers put in.

Btw, can you remove those 2 widgets from vodafone?
[Legend General] kurtalden:
Cheers dlau77, I went ahead and bought one and, as you say, you select the HTC Scene and you've got a pretty Vanilla Android phone. Perfect.

[HD2 General] EgoMaximus:
Hi, can anyone purchase a Hunting game by BungBungame?

http://marketplace.windowsphone.com...38844f0e&retURL=/search.aspx?keywords=hunting

I can't buy it, as my country is not listed, can pay you 2.5 USD via PayPal.
[HD2 General] Archer:
Apps bought on the marketplace are non-transferable. You don't (officially) get the cab file. There is an app that allows you to change your region for the marketplace. Have a look in one of the non phone-specific forums (windows games & apps, for example).
[HD2 General] EgoMaximus:
But will it work with credit card? I've tried picking random country, hit check out but got error as my cc was not frmo that country...
[HD2 General] Archer:
Probably not, in that case.

Have you tried googling for an alternative source for the game? I'd forget about MarketPlace if I were you.

this is completely different type of game..

games of the same type, and wich works on hd2 are:

towerstrap, and resco defender (this one is low res, but works fine)

i found them on wa**z site, since i too cannot buy anything from marketplace
[HD2 General] MDA_newbie:
Does anyone knows where I could download the Lite version on the web? I can't find it on marketplace on my country (The Netherlands) neither when I set my country settings to US.

Thanx.
[HD2 General] ugumba:
Marketplace is really weird - it's like they pretend they want to sell me stuff, but they don't really:

On my phone, I, too, couldn't find the Hunting game - I've tried the Norwegian, UK and US "world views". In the US view, the Games category contained 99 titles.

Next, on the web before I logged in, the Games category shows over 300 titles. I also searched for "Hunting", and found it (!). I logged in, then Hunting disappeared, and the number of games was back down to 99. I tried logging out, but the count strangely stayed at 99. Hunting was nowhere to be found.

Can anyone explain this?
[HD2 General] azahoth:
Tower Defence from colour stone for PPC is pretty good, I got the hunting light version, the one your talking about and I think its not as good as "tower defence" you can buy it from here
[HD2 General] mmuntean2:

tower defense: 15$ be serious,

i have the same problem, cannot modify country on my account on marketplace. this is another big shhh from microsoft, i swear i will never buy another windows phone again, once in my life i want to buy something for it and i cannot because of the lack of inteligence from microsoft...

Hello everyone

this is my maiden voyage into this forum having lurked for a while since i got my HD2...

Please stick with me,

I have uncovered some grossly outrageous prices from 2 of the leading hd2 repair teams on the internet in the U.K.......

read on .....

well,

The day i decide to step foot into primark, i drop my hd2 and it drops less than a meter from my hand and catches the corners and shatters the glass screen....

after a slightly delirious 20 minutes of laughing i tried to use my phone.

unbelievably it worked absolutely fine! albeit with cracked glass and fine shards of glass sticking into my fingers....

so i immediately set about trying to find out where i could get it fixed online.

The first stop was TurnOnYourMobile.co.uk who quoted me just over £200 to have the screen replaced. They offered a "We'll beat the Price of our competitors" thing, and so i looked elsewhere .

Hence, next stop, Undercutter.co.uk...

According to the very difficult to use website, it would cost me £85! bargain i thought...

so i went back to TOYM to see if they could do a price match?

the answer was no....

oddly, it seemed that Mark at TOYM used to do the repairs for Undercutter and believed that Simon at Undercutter was confusing the Touch HD with the HD2 and that his quote was incorrect.

Back to Undercutter and when i emailed directly to Simon i was quoted £115 plus £8.50! still less than TOYM but a little bit more than undercutters own website stated! not a good sign!

So i did my own survey of prices of the HTC HD2 screen Glass Screen Digitizer.....

to find that the screen alone ranges from £23.50:gultek.eu/htc-hd2-digitizer.html

to £44.95 mobilefun.co.uk/htc-hd2-replacement-lcd-p23948.htm

I emailed Simon at Undercutter about this!

The fact that the screens were available for Under £50 and yet he was charging nearly £70 on top of that to spend less than 20 minutes replacing the screen..... a Whopping rate of nearly £70 an hour for the repair....

Absolutely extortionate.....

after sending my findings to Simon he sent me an email back saying

"We are not going to justify our repair prices and service further, but if you would like to use our services, please let us know."

so my advice to anyone getting a screen repair is, unless you can afford the extortionate prices, see if you can get it repaired on your insurance, and if that takes too long, try and fix it yourself.....

After my findings, I am tempted to buy a screen and repair it myself.....

But i need your advice.... Is the anyone out there who can fix my phone for a lot cheaper and at a resonable rate???

and If i am to repair it myself, Any tips or instructions on hopw to do it???

Many MAny thanks to you

and thank you for reading.

i think its ok for ppl to ask that much money for it from what i have seen its verry difficult to do.

you have to think for yourself. if you do it yourself and you destroy your phone. what will it cost you? is that risk really worth saving a relative small amount of money?

in my opinion its not.
[HD2 General] Marshall1975:
Hello

I had my screen replaced by HTC in the UK and they charged me £79 +VAT so I would say your being well ripped off mate.
[HD2 General] seeksol:
Marshall1975, who did you get yours fixed by? and did they replace it with the glass screen as opposed to a platic alternative i've been hearing about? and was it just the glass that was replaced or the LCD digitizer too?

I have a feeling it's just my glass that needs replacing not the bit underneath it.

jamieeeee, I don't think it's reasonable for people to make that much money out of customers at all, just my view but to make such a big profit out of one customer is shocking.

The reason i've posted my findings is to highlight the nature of people preying on a niche market such as us. HD2 is still fairly uncommon and these companies are making a killing bacause we are a niche market... i think it's dispicable...

Marshall, I haven't got mine fixed yet;. i'm doing my research good and proper first before i go for it....

Thank you so much

Darren
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
that is just the plastic digitizer that reads your finger, not the glass.

also, the second link is for the lcd screen not necessarily the glass. (I think im correct in saying it is a three piecesetup, lcd - glass -digitize ((or lcd digitizer glass))
[HD2 General] seeksol:
Thanks for the Info SamSamuel...

so can i assume then, that as it's just the glass that is broken that , that is all i need to replace?

My phone still works brilliantly and no touch problems at all other than tiny bits of glass...

does anyone know How crucial it is after a drop to replace the whole lot? as SamSamuel suggested, the 3 parts that make up the screen?

Simon from UnderCutter didn't appear to say that the screens i listed were incorrect? who knows. Does anyone here have more detailed information to what is on there on the market.

Surely these screens must be Official as they are HTC branded?

below another os Simons gems in repsonse to my findings of screens at a lower price.....

If you have the skills to replace the screen yourself then please have a go at buying and fitting. Some cheaper parts don’t work or last very long, so there are cheaper ones out there but don’t hold your breath for a great product.
[HD2 General] seeksol:
Also Just wondered if anyone knew of the whereabouts of the video tutorial on how to replace the screen???

and £79 wow, i can't beat that, Where did you get it done Marshall?

darren
[HD2 General] jamieeeee:
the videos are here

but its verry hard to seperate those 2 things..
[HD2 General] seeksol:
hmmmm taking the whole of the screen looks fairly simple in the video! but i'm sure there has to be more to it because of all the separate components that make up the screen....

still wiatin got hear from Marshall1975 to see where he got his done.....
[HD2 General] sutt359:
Have you contacted your network to see how much they can do the repair for?
[HD2 General] Starfury:
I believe he stated in his post it was directly with HTC in the UK.
[HD2 General] kbm:
Why not plump for HTC. Save the hassle of DIY and its cheaper than the other quotes you have?

When its all fixed, work out how much insurance would cost per year balanced against dropping it, smashing it and repeating the whole process again......
[HD2 General] seeksol:
Aha

must've not seen that through my cracked screen!

I have contacted HTC to eagerly await their response which i will post here!

Darren
[HD2 General] seeksol:
Oh I am SERIously getting insurance after this!

I also asked HTC about extending the Warranty.... will wait to hear back...

[Networking] whocaresaboutnames:
Hello everyone,

I have done some research on Google and with the forum search here, but couldnt find out if this is a known issue:

I am using WM pro 6.1 on a Samsung i780. The device has a working internet connection (Internet explorer, connection to exchange server ... all works flawlessly).

When I enable internet connection sharing and surf on the connected laptop this works for about 40 seconds to 10 minutes, then the connection breaks up. I haver to hit "Connect" again on the device and after 10 seconds I am connected again. Of course this is extremely frustrating.

I checked this behaviour with 2 different laptops, one running WinXP, another running Windows7.Same behaviour. So the problem must be with the device and internet connection sharing on the device. The connection is via USB cable, so it ought to be very stable.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. What would be the next steps? What should I try to find out?

I actually know a bit how a computer works (I wrote an even rather successfull computer chess program a long time ago :)) but this I can't solve. It is important for me, because I seldome use internet at home and if I can get this to work I dont need another internet connection (saves me 20 Euros a month!)

Thanks again!

georg
[Networking] whocaresaboutnames:
to simplify

basically I can imagine the following steps to bugfix:

- is there a debug file in windows mobile 6.1. where it writes info about the internet sharing? then I could check there why it disconnects.

- if not, is there a utility for windows mobile which maybe allows more stable connections opposed to the built in connection sharing?

- should I try updating to 6.5.?

Again: Internet on the device/mobile phone ist stable (!). What disconnects is the "INternet Connections Sharing" even though that is via a USB cable(!).

Thanks.

[Touch2 General] gabi.t:
...Me too... and I have a justification. This HTC is a 'low budget' model . I understand that people work to find a way for unlock and they want to earn some cash for this. However, I think there are plenty of more expensive models, which are owned by users who can pay more easily the amounts required to unlock.

I think they (unlockers ;) ) earn enough money from the expensive phones and that they can do some 'concessions' for the low-price models.

So please, have mercy...

P.S. Excuse the mistakes above. I translated with google and tried to more accurate on where I got it. I hope, however, to understand the idea :)

I hope i wrote this thread in the right place...

What I was wondering is are the apks downloaded from the internet phone specific or can i just run the apks into any android os phone. For instance if i download an apk from the internet, is it only meant for a certain android device or i can run that apk in the hero,g1 and basically anything android
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kendong2:
apps arent device dependant, within boundarys. different screen resolutions can cause trouble, so there might be high and low resolution versions of an app. it is scalable, but you know how it is, doesn't always work like planned.

so answer is no, apps are not specific, and yes, this is the right place ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicknyhk:
Thanks for the reply. Should have asked this earlier but so long as its for the android there shouldnt be any risk of bricking my phone right??(this goes as far as apk are concern)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B1nny:
no, a default APK cannot brick your phone, like from a small puzzle game or something..

well, there maybe some device specific apps, like the HTC battery widget, doesn't work on the Villian 5.1 sprint port, cause the famework is sprint, and the app is made for the Hero, so it simply won't install..

but there shouldn't be any problems, with default games/apps or something:D
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicknyhk:
thanks so much...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyuk:
The only real specifications come down to the OS your running as for example os 1.5 ran differently to OS 2.0 some apps won't run without modifications.

I think google try to reduce these problems as much as they can though.

Some apps have hardware restrictions for example google earth, can be installed on a hero but it wont run.

Other apps won't be visible in the market if your missing something like a camera (won't see camera apps).

But on the whole just install and see if it works :)
