[Hero CDMA General] mrinehart93:
I don't know what you guys are talking about. My keyboard (modded XDA version) is blazing fast. If you guys really, want, I can post a modded version that I made of the new DamageControl ROM up here... Please note though that I DID remove quite a bit of stuff from it... such as Voice Dialer, Voice Search, all the HTC widgets except for clock, weather, and search, all the Sprint apps, etc. Pretty much, it's just an extremely slimmed down version. Oh, and the keyboard is black with the vanilla lockscreen :)
[Hero CDMA General] noobmodder:
Normally, the LED will blink green for notifications, orange when plugged in and charging (green when plugged in and battery full), and blink red if the battery is at 15% or less.

As far as the keyboards go, like I said, I have used the default HTC keyboard without voice/smileys, as well as the AOSP (plain android) keyboard, and both lag badly in landscape mode. I haven't tried Swype, and honestly don't plan to. It just doesn't interest me.
[Hero CDMA General] noobmodder:
I did notice that the HTC messaging app seems to be a little slow as well (showing the spinny Loading wheel for several seconds every time I open a thread). Where did you find the stock android msg app? I'd be willing to give it a shot...
[Hero CDMA General] lv2bll:
if you disable vibrate on press for the keyboard that helps ALOT
[Hero CDMA General] noobmodder:
I forgot to mention that vibe and sounds are off. I have auto correction on, but that's it. I thought i wasn't able to type fast before, now I *really* have to type slowly and deliberately, otherwise I can easily get 5-7 words ahead of the phone (and I don't even type that fast on the thing lol)
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
I am talking about the trackball....that doesn't light up.

Nope. Already have it disabled and it's super slow compared to the pancake rom I had from flipz.

Using the stock one or handcent make it both really slow and annoying. Really do not like this.
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
Can you just possibly post the keyboard?
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
It says in the features of 2.1 from flipz...

Handcent also has an option on making it light up. So unless I am totally not reading both things correctly I would think the trackball would light up.
[Hero CDMA General] danknee:
Before the latest leak the trackball light didn't work at all. This new leak has the light working and it is linked to the light sensor (doesn't light up in a bright room).
[Hero CDMA General] noobmodder:
Ohhh...for a while there were issues with the trackball not lighting up at all, like...period. Now the trackball will light up as it needs to based on the light sensor. Go into a dark room, or hold your finger over the light sensor (black area just to the right of the earpiece) and roll the ball. It should light up. If you are in a light room, it won't light up. It's a new feature in 2.1 as opposed to 1.5, where it would light up every time it was touched, regardless of the light conditions.

As for handcent, the options for changing the LED color and trackball lighting up are for other phones that support it; the hero does not. The hardware isn't capable of using the ball as a notification light, and the actual LED color can't be changed.
[Hero CDMA General] Leukay:
Credit goes to Darchstar, as I got this from DarchVanilla. If you're on DarchLegend v5 make sure you remove Mms.odex from system/app. Otherwise just push
[Hero CDMA General] noobmodder:
Awesome! Thanks man, I appreciate it! (and a tip of the hat to Darchstar as well)
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
That is good to know.

It says in handcent that it is for the hero and another phone so I would assume the hero is capable of doing it unless the author is wrong. O well.

Now to just speed up this damn keyboard.
[Hero CDMA General] noobmodder:
That would be the GSM hero in Europe, off which the sprint hero is based; apparently that version has it, but for some reason it's not on the American version.

As far as the keyboard goes, using the android messaging app posted by Leukay a few posts above works like a charm!
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
Bastards! haha

I will have to give that keyboard a try once I get home. I just install the zip in recovery or I push it through adb?
[Hero CDMA General] noobmodder:
Just push it through ADB. It's not a keyboard, but the stock Android messaging app; it replaces the "Messages" app, but works pretty much identically. The only thing you lose is that the first line of the message doesn't show up on the lock screen, since it's not incorporated with sense, but personally I can live with that seeing as I'm now able to actually type messages correctly. I'd keep the APK handy, as you have to reinstall it each time you flash a new ROM.
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
Hmm I thought it was only the keyboard. I really like handcent so don't know if I will be switching. :(
[Hero CDMA General] noobmodder:
Well, I have the default HTC keyboard here you can try, again just push it through ADB. Although, this didn't make much of a difference for me, it was the msg app that did the trick.
[Hero CDMA General] Hot Karl:
I have observed the same thing, a slower keyboard after the 2.1d Fresh root.

One thing I did today was re-install "SetCPU" and that seems to make a difference, its not blazing fast but at least I can leave on the haptic feedback and its doing a pretty good job of keeping up.
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
Just really like the features handcent has so I don't know if I want to use it. Thanks for the files.

On flipz new rom it says to not use setcpu...I wonder why.
[Hero CDMA General] troyboytn:
Because the HTC power manager built into the kernel does the exact same thing as SetCPU. Using it might have adverse effects.
[Hero CDMA General] Sina702:
For me, I had keyboard lag on the HTC_IME, but when i turned off haptic feedback and also the autocorrect and grammar checks, there is no lag whatsoever for me in landscape or portrait mode, and i hardly make any mistakes when i type.
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
I don't really want to turn the autocorrect and grammer check off because I type too fast and do make errors. :D
[Hero CDMA General] kashb91:
dont know if its been said before, but if you turn off the option to disable key previews it works a bit faster. may just be me.
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
Turned it off and it's still too slow for my likely. Guess I have just got really quick at typing with my thumbs.
[Hero CDMA General] azr6:
So I got an app called smart keyboard pro and it seems to make the keyboard quicker. I might also swap from using handcent to using chomp (or wutever the best text app is) and see what happens.
[Hero CDMA General] mountaindont:
i notice a fresh wipe and flash always fix my keyboard lag. using regawmod.

hey guys I'm pretty new to this and just got a htc hd2. i wanna know if its possible to put Android on it and how. if anyone could give me some detailed instructions i would really appreciate it.

i searched the forum but didn't really find an answer...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] egzthunder1:
Wrong section of the site. Go to the HD2 section of the site.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1wayjonny:
From the market place, possibly blocked from the US market place search. It was there before but now its gone.

Could someone download it and post the APK or link?

Thanks
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1wayjonny:
** EDIT **

Nevermind found a work around form Spotify.

http://m.spotify.com

Then click link at bottom for manual installation and it downloads the APK to SDCARD.... Perfect!
[HD2 General] nick310:
Has anyone else noticed the slow browsing speed when they are using Opera version 9-10 on 2g/3g TMOUS. I get about 700-1200kbps as opposed to 3000-7000kbps when using either opera mini, internet explorer, or skyfire. It works pretty decent on wifi connections, but when it's turned off, the speeds will drop down big time. Is there a fix for this?? Is anyone else having the same issue?
[HD2 General] fallenmonk:
My I.E is even slower. Takes a minute to load a page. My Opera is not much faster. It's ridiculous. My orbit2 is faster.
[HD2 General] cgrec92:
I get full HSDPA and can only get 190kbps.....

id kill for the speeds youre getting ;)
[HD2 General] nick310:
what I do right now is use opera mini or skyfire when I'm on the mobile network, when I'm using wifi, I used opera 10. I just wished I could use opera 10 for all scenerio since it's soo smooth in rendering pages.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Los86:
I have a Nexus one and was actually thinkin about going back to a G1, i've heard you can overclock the G1. I used to have a G1 but didnt like the battery life, anybody know if this was improved when its rooted?? Thanks in advance..
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
LOL I love the G1 too... But I wouldnt switch back to the G1 even if they give me 2 of those :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
that's like saying "should I go back to a pentium 3 or keep my i7 computer?"

But seriously, I messed around on my old G1 yesterday and now I wonder how I lived with it. :D
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jz9833:
the rooted g1, and i'll even do you the favor of taking that n1 off your hands.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r34p3rex:
This :) Except, I think I could put it to better use :p
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dudebro:
Why would you go back from a Nexus?! I was messing around on my old MT3G that I gave

to my dad (unrooted for him) and the screen is so small... it's also pretty slow.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoungAceAtlanta:
I dont know why you would go back to a G1. the only reason i would go back is for all the cool roms that they didnt have when i had a g1. would be great to just test em out.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FaJu:
I've had my Nexus for exactly 4 hours and 6 minutes. I would not go back to my Dream/G1 if you paid me to.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masse1369:
Rooted Motorola StarTac. Amazing. I think that Cyanogen actually broke the code to go from Analog to Digital. :p
[Desire General] xspyda:
Anyone else noticed their Desire getting extremely hot? Noticed it when connected through Tmob UK HSDPA - haven't noticed at any other time but then I have only had the Desire a couple of days and have used it mainly on WiFi.

I noticed the bottom of the handset was getting VERY warm, as was the screen! Turned off sharpish and it's been alright since but then I haven't been on HSDPA again, only WiFi.
[Desire General] sonandreas:
i thought it was just mine, also gets quite hot during charging as well.
[Desire General] radovanky:
mine too

hi, mine is very warm too, not only during charging. Battery gets hot after about hour, using wifi, installing, etc..
[Desire General] xspyda:
not just me then, that's a relief. Come to think of it I had just installed a few apps. Wondering if one of those could have caused it. It really was uncomfortable to hold and quite worrying!

Considering a hard reset just in case.
[Desire General] mojavaid36:
Got my desire yesterday...and I've been using it non stop...and its hotttt!!!

[Desire General] gogol:
Hmm, I have been using it all day long as well ... but on Wi-Fi ... also played some games for couple of hours.

No hot .... Slightly warm yes, but un-notice-able.

I turned off almost everything:

- No auto-update

- Bluetooth OFF

- Animation off

- Always on off

- GPS off

Am I lucky?
[Desire General] killyouridols:
My Battery is (apparently) running at 40.7C, and its not even warm to touch, God knows what yours may be at! :D
[Desire General] patasenko:
The cause may be the HSDPA, i remember when my S730 was getting really warm when connected through HSDPA, but when 3g or wifi was connected.
[Desire General] xspyda:
I dont think it will get too hot on wifi .. seemed to be just when I was on hsdpa. Not been on hsdpa since home tonight, only wifi and its not noticeably warm tonight.

Will see what happens tomorrow I guess. Maybe I should get a temp monitor ready!
[Desire General] hassan:
Mine never gets hot over wifi, i've been using wifi only for about 10 days as i used my 1 GIG data bundle. It does get bit warm while charging and as soon as it charge to 100% then its cool as ice.

Generic one from CPW.
[Desire General] MomijiTMO:
Welcome to smartphones :p. They all get hot these days, especially after an intense data session.
[Desire General] xspyda:
lol, I have used a smartphone since they first became 'smart' in the days of the c500, and trust me, none I have had have ever got as hot as this did today!
[Desire General] OnlinePredator:
Obviously wern't as smart as your desire..... All my HTC's with big processors and integrated GPU's have got hot after long sessions. I'd say that the 200mhz processor wouldn't get very hot........... compared to a 1ghz processor.......
[Desire General] hmsq:
mine got really hot today, only noticed it after taking it out of the table, it then switched itself off, I actually thought phone went kaputs!

removed battery and left it for a few minutes to cool down and after switched it on no problems!

noob question

HSDPA is not same as 3G?
[Desire General] _Dejan_:
No.

HSDPA = 7.2Mbit/s

3G = 3.6Mbit/s
[Desire General] th3:
Doesn't get even luke warm for me under any usage scenario... around 30c is max I've yet seen under videoing loads with WiFi and a bunch of other things running. Had this for 2 weeks now.

Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
[Desire General] xspyda:
Was just pointing out that I've used smartphones for some time, not necessarily making a direct comparison. Same processor as the HD2 though and that never reached the blistering temp my Desire seemed to reach yesterday.

Odd, not done it since, even on hsdpa so perhaps it was a hungry app after all!
[Desire General] dr_s:
Mine getting hot everyime I use 3G data connection. even 10-15 mins and the back will be hot, getting hotter with further use..... :mad:

Normal our faulty set:confused:
[Desire General] RaptorRVL:
I think it's quite normal they get hot. Also depends on how you use the device (what kind of connection etc) and how good the signal is.

If you charge your device at the same time you use a heavy data connection and/or playing a game I guess the battery will get quite warm! :D
[Desire General] Dogmann:
@_Dejan_

Sorry but what you say is wrong 3G's max transfer rate is @384kbps whilst HSDPA is an extension of 3G hence called High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) and currently offers rates between 1.8, 3.6, 7.2 and 14.4 Mbit/s. Uploads have a current max speed of around 2mbps all of which are theoretical speeds and may not be what is experienced by the user as various factors will effect the actual speed they get. Currently the most advanced handsets support HSDPA up to 7.2.Mbps and i don't know of any Networks well at least not in the UK that have even rolled out faster speeds support then this yet.

Marc
[Desire General] _Dejan_:
Hi Dogmann,

Read again what Im write...

HSDPA = 7.2Mbit/s

3G = 3.6Mbit/s

This are max. data rate on Desire phone. Afcourse some manufacturer have different max. data rates...

If Im right current max data rates are(NOT for Desire):

UMTS(3G) = DL: 3.6Mbit/s UL: 348 Kbps

HSDPA = DL: 14.0 Mbit/s (HSUPA UL: 11.5 Mbit/s)

HSPA+ = DL: 84 Mbit/s (If Im shure in Australia currently use 42 Mbit/s) UL: 22 Mbit/s(Im not shure if this is max)

All this standards are extension of UMTS(3G)...
[Desire General] :
Gotta agree with dogmann i'm afraid.

3.6 is HSDPA,

NOT

3G. 3G/UMTS/WCDMA or whatever you want to call it was a maximum of 384kbps.

Of course, the desire has HSDPA so we get the 3.6 or 7.2, but 3g is not, and never was 3.6mbps.

The desire does get rather warm during extended use, but i would certainly not call it hot...no more so than any of the other phones with big processors get really. If it's just making your hand sweat a little, it's not a problem. Of course, if the skin's starting to peel, then something ain't right :-D
[Desire General] _Dejan_:
Yes Im make mistake:

UMTS = DL: 384 kbit/s UL: 64 kbit/s

HSDPA is enhanced 3G protocol....
[Desire General] relaxed2000:
Guys I noticed that my telephone gets hot when u look at the back of the telephone right down. I dont know what component is sitting over there.

Is it just by design or should we all go back to HTC?
[Desire General] :
that'll be where the big 1ghz processor sits i would imagine.

it is perfectly normal to get pretty warm and there is no need to send it back.

If it is getting painful to touch (which i seriously doubt) then send it back. But if it's just warming up, then don't worry. All the latest uberphones get like that at some point, it is just more noticeable the thinner they are.
[Desire General] micks_address:
just to revistit this.. my phone gets quite warm when i'm browsing the net a lot... or using yahoo messenger etc.. its not burning hot.. but i would say verges on the uncomfortable to hold side of things.. would there be any long term health implications for holding it while hot like this?
[Desire General] tifosi256:
If you want to experience just how hot the phone can become, use it in the car with the car charger, constantly on with google navigation/GPS.

Just as well I bought a car mount as it's so hot you wouldn't want to hold it for long.
[Desire General] TurkzZ:
no, not that hot under any conditions, hottest it gets is when charging, noting noticable under T-mob 3g etc
[Desire General] jamfitz86:
Guys these things are stupidly powerful for the size they are. If you had shown this phone to computer designers 10 years ago they would have thought it came from outerspace.

Processors and batteries get hot when current goes through them. Never looked inside a PC?

They get hot and will know their own temp. If they get too hot it'll turn off. HTC design these things to work in 50degC environments (I'd assume) with everything on and it wont go on fire or kill you, at best it'll throttle the cpu to cool it down, at worst it'll turn off.

The iPhone does this too and they recommend that it is not used in an environment above 35degC. There is aslo a hand warming app for the iPoo that just crunches the cpu and eats battery to create heat - how thick are some people?

JAmes.
[Desire General] al89nut:
Someone should design a handwarmer app
[Desire General] khaytsus:
Already done, and it does car navigation, social networking, and adds a lot of fun.. It's called Waze ;)

I don't yet have a Desire (why do I come here a torment myself.. WHY) but my WM phone running Waze in the car (gps, charging, in sun) gets bloody hot.

BTW, not calling out Waze here. It's as said in this thread; typical of todays higher powered phones, radios, etc.. They're designed for it, just be careful. I run the AC blowing on my phone when I use it in the car as described above, it keeps it cooler.
[Desire General] Whiterin:
I haven't had this issue thus far with my Desire. The only time it got even noticeably warm is when I put it on charge the first few times. Even when it was warm on charge, it wasn't too bad. I have had phones get much hotter then the Desire does. I also haven't noticed any heat buildup while using the internet, HSDPA or WiFi. Just checked my phone and it's sitting at 32C.

There actually is a handwarmer on the Android Market. It basically just runs your processor as hard as it can. I personally don't want anything to do with it as it would almost assuredly reduce the life of your battery/phone.
[Desire General] th3:
Constantly using Mobile internet (HSPDA), Maps, GPS,100% brightness, TTS engine, GPS Test app, SMS as well as the Navigation app for 3 hours on a drive yesterday while the phone was sitting in strong direct sunlight, I saw the battery heatup to 44 deg c max. Very good if you ask me.

Hi guys,

Been doing a bit of searching, and can't find out if it's possible to choose a MP3 for email notifications. Could do it on the HD2 easy, and have a different tone for all notifications.

I can set a ringtone no probs, set the sms tone ok, just the email one I need a lift on.

Cheers

Darrin
[Desire General] Barff1984:
did anyone find out how to do this ?
[Desire General] Bart1981:
Not with the standard mail applications installed on the Desire. With K9mail it's possible.
[Desire General] :
of course you can do it.

Create a folder on the root of the sd card called 'notifications' (exactly like that but obviously without the quotes)

Put your MP3 in there.

In settings > sound and display, set the notification there. That is the setting that the default mail program uses.

then, to keep it different for SMS, go into the messaging application, and press menu>settings.

set the SMS tone there.

do the same in Google mail. open, menu, settings, set tone for google mail

this is extremely simple because nearly all programs have their own notification settings, and only the mail program seems to use the default one in settings.

how much more simple can it be?
[Desire General] pastypacker:
That's a workaround, which i did actually know, but it doesnt alter the fact that you have the same tone for all other default notifictions, as well as the mail notifications.....
[Desire General] v8dave:
I just got my Desire HD and that seems to work for the the likes of GMAIL etc but Exchange just has this little beep and I can't see how to change this?
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Post in the Desire HD forum for a start ;)
[Desire General] warlordxxx:
Ok to V8Dave Eddy is correct as this may or may not work with your phone you are welcome to try it but if it doesn't might be better for you to get an answer in the DHD forum..

Anywho ---- There are 2 different notifications within the system that you can set .. The first is in settings>sound>notifications --- please note this will work for everything on your phone that needs a notification -- unless selected differently by program.. Your email will now have this notification .. To ensure it works start mail menu(hard button)>more>settings and turn the notification sound on

The second is hidden within the SMS app itself so start message>menu(hard button)>notification sound.. the SMS will now have a different sound to other notifications you may also be able to do the same with other apps i haven't checked them to be honest...

Now it should play seperate tones for sms and email and you can set your ringtone differently too ..

If that fails download LED me know http://www.xda-developers.com/android/customise-notifications-with-led-me-know/ from the market That should enable different notifications for several apps in one go
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
good thing they didn't name this device the gin or something :). But seriously, I think I like that method of copy and paste ,from the Kin and Courier, for touch devices. Just being able to drag and drop several things to the corners of your device for easy access later would be such a nice built-in feature.
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
Yea, sorta like the spine in the courier videos. That would seem to be a nice and intuitive copy/paste UI.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
I'm hoping they add a spot on wp7 on their bar as well. And offer an easy way to add a spot and customize it on your application in wp7. That would be an elegant solution to copy & paste.

Seems to be already created on the Kin One and Two as well.
