1) Open registry editor

2) Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications

3) There will be a lot of GUID entry folders. Find the one that corresponds to the notification you want to alter. When you open the folder, the (Default) value, if set, is the name of the notification that corresponds to the control panel value.

4) Change AvailableOptions from 11 to 15

5) Hit start->settings->Sounds & Notifications->Notifcations

6) Scroll to the notification type you just changed (for me, "TouchTwit: Mentions")

7) The box "flash light for [x]" will no longer be greyed out

Great find. Definitely worth mentioning. This is the kind of stuff we need on here. Thanks for the submission. :D
[HD2 General] rawhide85:
reignzone- I would like to know if it is possible to increase the vibe alert intensity on the TmoUS HD2? I did a search and was not able to find anything. I switched from a Razr V3 which had a strong vibe alert. Also, I successfully flashed to HSPL2 and just waiting for a stock rom to flash new rom. Thanks

Can anyone walk me through dumping my stock TmoUS rom so I can post it here which will provide everyone a way to revert to shipped rom?
[HD2 General] Reignzone:
Well, in terms of vibration intensity... that is usually application specific. The system vibration alerts cannot really be tampered with as far as I know. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. There are applications, "modded" applications that provide various system tweaks that can alter the vibration... but not too many of them are focused on something so "simple" as vibrating alerts.

As for a system dump, that would be excellent. Post in a few other threads in this area, and I'm sure you'll find people that would be glad to assist you in providing that for us all. :)

reignzone- When searching for a way to dump my rom, ondraster replied with this forum:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=581715&page=78

Maybe one of you can figure out how to use this program. Good Luck

i installed dusk theme on my tmous hd2 seems to be working fine. i think it even fixed a problem i've been having since day one where it doesnt come back from sleep. so far haven't had to soft restart. i also installed a few other files from the uk version and they seemed to work ok. also all the registy tweaks work fine.
[HD2 General] Reignzone:
Good stuff guys. Again, thanks for additional feedback.

As for Dusk, yes... I've taken quite a few bits and pieces from that theme and used it on my STOCK build. For instance, the retractable slider themed with Dusk features.

I'm so glad we're finally moving this T-Mobile USA forum along now, it needs more attention from the EURO threads.
[HD2 General] aceo07:
I can use my HD2 to watch any videos from my file server. :)
[HD2 General] Reignzone:
That's pretty sweet man, pretty sweet. How'd you manage that?

I don't mean to toot my own horn here, but I just installed and tested quite literally, every transparent home tab slider from the guys at PPCMods.

And needless to say, each one of them worked, flawlessly. Also, they all look just gorgeous. But after testing "the look" of most all of them... I fell in love with the Colorful Stickers icons. Simple, HUGE, and great design.

Finally, the clock fonts are phenomenal as well... check those out too. :D
[HD2 General] davidrh:
Watching videos from the file server...

Pretty simple - just get the HTC Networking add-on or (I use) Resco Explorer & its network client. Wi-fi up, point it to a file share with your creds, et voila! I find TCPMP and/or Core Player to be tops for viewing.
[HD2 General] kable:
Awesome, Was hoping for this. Nice find!

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelo147:
But i rooted my N1, but i am completely happy with the way it is now and i dont want to flash a custom rom on it, so what can i really do now, for instance would i be able to install wired tether and have it work? or do i need to install a custom rom for that

I am just wondering if there is any benefit of your the N1 so far without having to flash a custom rom
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuerillaZhou:
yes, you should be able to install wired and wifi tether. but i would suggest giving other roms a shot, if you dont like it. just do a nand restore
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inhuman5000:
can you still install apps2sd with no custom rom?

also newb question. doesn installing a custom rom after root give a noticable perfomance boost? like feeing up more ram and rom as well?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuerillaZhou:
most custom roms have the himem enabled, so that will double the available ram for you to use. and apps2sd only works well with the custom rom they came with

i am running cyanogen, and it works really well, better than stock for sure.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelo147:
But when you go to the download page of wired tethered it says i need a rdnis enabled kernel and i dont think the nexus one comes stock with it, but thats mainly just a guess not an actual fact of knowledge
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
:-) I don't blame you the N1 already performs great even when it's stock, but since you're already rooted, I suggest you flash Amon's recovery, do a nandroid back up, and try out the available ROMs, you will get everything the stock ROM has and A LOT more, it gives you more memory, speed boost, battery savings, and the option to save aps to SD. If you aren't happy with it you can always restore it. :-)

I'm running Enomther's ROM right now, and trust me you wont get disappointed.

Good Luck!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inhuman5000:
sorry another question.

If i decide to root. could i backup all my current apps and recover them once i root. I have mybackup pro and will i be able to just run restore apps in a custom rom with mybackup pro?

And with rooted phones, all over the air updates by google must be manually installed right? instead of ota right?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rjhay22:
I'm not sure how backup pro works but I think it'll restore your aps coz that's what its for :-p also when you flash a new ROM, the first time you open your downloads list from the market, all the apps you have installed from your previous ROM will be available for download. Note that this only works the first time you open market, so make sure you don't exit the market until your done installing all, or you won't see them again. :-)

Yes you wont get OTA updates when you're rooted, but this is not a big deal since the devs update their ROM as soon as Google releases an update, often, they even get the leaked versions and incorporate it in their ROMs, so you'll be running the updated version of the N1 way before the stock N1's get it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] setzer715:
This is actually incorrect. The kernal needs to be updated to be able to use ether of the tethering apps. With the stock rom, there isn't much you can do with a rooted phone. In fact, its almost a waste to root unless your going to run a custom ROM. I use and trust Enomther's ROM's. VERY stable and capable of using tether apps, apps2sd, has the hacked kernal that allows the full use of the 512Mb of RAM etc. etc. Check it out here.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inhuman5000:
thanks alot man.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigacgomez:
Not sure about backup pro, but I think it should do what you need... atleast thats what ppl have said... i personally never used it..

Most cooked ROMs disable OTA updates... but if u hv stock rooted, you will get the OTA updates, but it'll most likely disable root if a new boot image is part of the OTA...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martin0285:
Daily people post about this. Why un-lock the bootloader (thus VOIDING your warranty) to keep a stock rom? Makes absolutely no sense. Cyanogen and Emon are trusted people that WILL NOT RELEASE ANYTHING THAT WILL BLOW UP YOUR PHONE!! There is a disclaimer for idiots that may not pay attention. If you follow directions you will never have a problem. If you end up with a problem (bootloop or alot of FCs) hop on #cyanogenmod on freenode IRC. Those guys are always willing to help you through problems, Even noobs usually.

Hardware defects will happen on stock just as they will custom ROMs. So don't waste your time un-locking, if you don't plan on running a custom ROM.

YOU CAN'T BRICK YOUR PHONE FLASHING CyanogenMOD/Emon ROMS!!! ONLY RADIOS AND SPL's!!!!!!!!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michaelo147:
dude chill there questions i rooted my g1 and i thought it was a fun experience and i just bought a nexus one and i wanted to see if i could root it, but i really enjoy the way my nexus one runs now, its all i wanted to know
[Touch HD Android Development] fstluxe:
Dear kernel developer glemsom,

First of all Really thanks for all the hard work in the kernel !!

There is a question what really isn't clear yet:

on the other (Official) android devices it isn't possible to beyond the real 528 MHZ they can only use the PLL1 to reach the 768 but with no success.

so the question is ho did you did this so that we can use custom frequency's?

That would be really nice to do with the other (Android)phones ..

I hope someone can clear this up.

Thanks.
[Touch HD Android Development] maaz_talha:
very thorough and academic. pleasure to read. good study. only fault i could raise is that you shouldn't claim a difference is statistically insignificant, unless you have the statistical data to back it up (which should also be documented).

EDIT: just realised you were quoting someone else's work. guess the feedback doesn't completely apply then. thanks for bringing this info to us :)
[Touch HD Android Development] gaaten:
Indeed this would not only be useful on android, I believe that No2chem(nuerom.com) got stuck with pll1 at 768 as the only option for overclocking. I believe he used android code to figure this out (if I remember one of his post correctly).

Then we could run our blackstones at 692 mhz in Windows mobile. I am currently running android on 692(did the tests in setcpu so it actually works) :)
[Touch HD Android Development] Geeba:
Soooooooo after reading this I cant really see if there is anyway to overclock the Blackstone in Windows? - another few Mghz would be great!:D
[Touch HD Android Development] sschrupp:
I think the key point of that quote is this:

"What's actually happening here?

The kernel is being told by the CPU frequency table that it can set CPU frequencies that it doesn't support, and thus, the kernel "thinks" it's on a higher speed, but in reality, it isn't. No actual frequency changes are occurring beyond 528MHz. Though "BogoMIPS" in /proc/cpuinfo was previously believed to be a measurement of CPU speed, and not calculated from what the kernel thinks is the current CPU speed, we now know that it's a derived rather than measured value. Thus, CPU frequency scaling applications, which rely onthe values the kernel provides, will be fooled too."

That's stating that there isn't any overclocking happening.
[Touch HD Android Development] fstluxe:
Okey maybe your right but if i do a long benchmark wit setcpu i get 17000 MS(milli second) with 528 MHZ and 9600+- Milli second with 692 MHZ.. so its really working.. thats the strange point.. so its working but HOW? with BogoMIPS?? and if i try to go beyond the 692 MHZ the phone Hangs so the frequents is really higher..

It would be nice if the kernel Developers can ensure this question
[Touch HD Android Development] fstluxe:
this topic can be Closed.

I now know how the overlock has been done.

ITs done by the kernel + Like this (19.2 x (0x25) = 710.4MHZ (0x25 HEX=37 Dec)
[Touch HD Android Development] terrorizernl:
so how can we overclock the blackstone

i'm a noob so the most above is chinese for me

i use android and mini terrors ravage rom

mini terror works great but android a little bit slow

so more speed would be nice
[Touch HD Android Development] g3rm0:
Overclocking can be done this way:

1. open startup.txt (it should be located in the root of your sdcard)

2. find the line that starts: set cmdline

3. add acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=600000 to other parameters inside quotation marks

4. save and close the file

5. you are overclocking to almost 600MHz (31 * 19.2MHz = 595.2 to be exact because it must be an even multiplier)

NOTE THAT THIS MAY DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE. YOU'RE DOING IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!

BTW. My Blackstone won't go higher than 633.6MHz on recent kernels and IIRC it could go higher before :(

CAN IT BE UPGRADED TO WINDOWS MOBILE??

does it support windows mobile to be installed on it??
[Desire General] jayshah:
Even if it's possible, I don't think "upgrading" is the correct term.
[Desire General] raydm:
he might means wp7S
[Desire General] mhewitson:
Why would you buy a brand new Android phone and even want to change the OS - astounded!!
[Desire General] MasDroid:
I think he means "porting" to WM. I am also wondering if this would be possible to port to WM7S with this device, although, strict hardware chassis requirements would be required (Back, Start and Search button on all Windows Phone 7 Series devices).
[Desire General] A|ex:
I didnt think it was possible to run WM on an android phone, i always thought that android on WM was only possible
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Currently, there is no way of installing Windows Mobile on any Android phone

But you can install Android on Windows Mobile on selected devices.
[Desire General] Shane2:
Porting WP7 to the desire would be a downgrade, not an upgrade. WP7 is going to be even more watered down than the iPhone OS, and a trident based web browser... no thanks
[Desire General] RaptorRVL:
Oh dear, getting deja vu feelings here. Let's say it's a recurring topic when new Android devices come out :D And every time the replies are about the same lol :P
[Desire General] crasher:
WP7 offers classic mode

If the news is true and not an April Fool's joke, WP7 will offer a classic mode download once it's launched and we will be able to run all wm6.5.3 programs on it, similar to WinXP mode on Win7. This will be a good reason to port over to WP7 right?

Edit:

Oh well, after doing just a bit more googling it appears to be just another joke.
[Desire General] patasenko:
I actually believe it would be easier just to make kind of Windows Mobile emulator or virtualization, something like wine on linux to run wm classic software on android rather than porting to proprietary platform
[Desire General] brummiesteven:
WINE exists for desktop linux but it's been developed on for years. I'm sure something is possible it's just a case of who would want to adopt and code such a product. And anyway, I think if something was attempted it would be to emulate iPhone apps on Android not WM apps.
[Desire General] ash99:
I couldn't believe the title of this thread. WHY would anyone want to do this ?

Stick to Android. It will fair you well.
[Desire General] profet:
easy

Actually, its remarkably simple to get your Desire to run an almost identical experience to Windows Mobile. Just put it on the floor, and then stamp on it at least fifteen times. Then leave it in the bath for at least an hour.
[Desire General] C:Sharp!:
Upgraded?!?

Windows Mobile is dead and Windows Phone 7 sucks balls, it's worse than iPhone OS.
[Desire General] nig060983:
Nice reactions to Windows Mobile!

I only had wm5 on an old mda compact ii, just got my desire with android and OMG, who would ever take android off their phone? ! :confused:
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
LMFAO!! :D

At least there wasn't any flaming of the OP this time....
[Desire General] drasifriaz:
Why would you want to port winmo-CRAP to an android phone like the HTC Desire ???????????????????/
[Desire General] losdrivare:
While I'm not a fan of microsoft in general, I have a Topaz presently and I do like both the phone and the HTC Sense/TF3D interface. I also have a collection of apps that I've grown quite fond of, apps that AFAIK don't have any Android counterparts.

In fact, the only things I'd like to improve on the Topaz is a slightly larger screen and much faster CPU. If I could have the Desire with winmo 6.5 or 6.5.x this would fit the bill perfectly.

I know of the supposed HTC Obsession/Diamond 3, but it's supposed to run WP7 and with the kind of functionality sacrifices that means (copy/paste, multitasking, no 3rp party UIs/skins) I'm not tempted.

Each to their own, live and let live. Just because you don't understand why, doesn't make it wrong. :rolleyes:
[Desire General] irkan:
Why on earth would anyone want to install WM on the Desire??

I think its possible like some of the members said, using WINE or something, but i doubt that anyone would be interested (maybe just for experimental purposes)

Made my day!
[Desire General] FloatingFatMan:
So much hate...

Y'know... If it weren't for Windows Mobile, not only would these forums not exist, but neither would HTC...
[Desire General] irkan:
true, .... +1 irony
[Desire General] leemoss84:
why does everyone and their momma have to say "why would you want to do that for? android is way better!" it wasnt a question of which is better or which one you like more, it was a question of is it possible. these android fanboys are worse than iphone fanboys!! just my 2 cents.
[Desire General] sparklehedgehog:
UPGRADE!?

Sorry buddy but that is NO WAY an upgrade! I've spent 4 years putting up with that mess of a UI giving them chance after chance to sort it and as admirable a job as HTC did with the numerous sense overlays it just couldn't solve the underlying problem that is Windows Mobile. I had Vario's, Touch HD, HD2, Touch Pro 2 etc and none of them came close to Android purely because of that software. So glad HTC are clever enough to go to Android.

Great company.
[Desire General] 400ixl:
HTC are as much a Windows Mobile house as they are an Android. They just have different phones for different OS's in most cases. For example, the HTC HD2 is a Windows Mobile phone.
[Desire General] Shane2:
No doubt, but Equally Android has overtaken WM of late, as has even the (shudder) iPhone. WP7 is a good start towards getting it back on track, but at the moment, I don't think replacing Android 2.1 + Sense with WP7 would be an upgrade for the Desire
[Desire General] dannstarr:
LOL - seriously?

My friend, you need a map.
[Desire General] alan090:
this is an obvious troll

if you want winmo then buy a htc HD2 its the same specs pretty much but winmo

htc desire and legend and anything else android will not be running anything but android for some time - I do not think there is even a big enough desire for someone to attempt to port :P
[Desire General] profet:
Fair enough mate. There's too much hate in the world.

I don't hate Windows Mobile - I had a lot of fun flashing ROMs and playing with my Touch Pro. Honestly though, I never got close to the elegant simplicity and power that came pre-installed on my Desire. WinMo (even 6.5) is an out of date OS and caused me a lot of frustration. I lost count of the amount of times I wanted to throw it at the wall in anger. Even Microsoft realised they had to start again with Windows Phone 7.
[Desire General] sparklehedgehog:
we're not Android fanboys as you claim just that we've seen the light and moved away from that $h1t3 before we become daily Rom flashers in the search of something that might actually work as described!

maybe I am becoming an Android fanboy but only Windows Mobile is to blame for that as I gave 5 devices all running WinMo a chance with 6, 6.1, 6.5 and 6.5.3 a chance and gave up after years waiting so long for a decent OS.
[Desire General] ejwkamstra:
I hope i see the light too! Mine is due to come thursday 8. Now i am on TP2 with EnergyROM. Works ok, but misses the speed and finess i am looking for. Played with the legend. Liked it a lot, but still waiting for the speed with the 1GHz snapdragon and the amoled screen. Can't wait to see the light (of the screen).

Edwin:D
[Desire General] CarpeDiemsNuts:
Now the little flaming session is over can this post be moved/removed as it is irrelevant to Desire ANDROID development.

Some of us are here because we want to keep up to date on the rooting/ROM process that needs to happen BEFORE any other software can be written to the system.

Pointless arguments take up space and clutter the dev forums, wanna have a fanboy showdown? Take it to the general forum.
[Desire General] mdalacu:
If you can flash windows mobile (6.5.5 not 7 crap) on it, this will make Desire the ultimate smart phone. One device with 2 optimized OSes for it. There is quite a lot of people tired of social networking integration and prefer wm bussiness like approche. Through haret it will always be possible to boot back in the eye candy Android.

Now i have HTC HD2 witch i have broke it 2 days ago (by mistake). Since then i am searching for a new phone. HD2 is perfect in many ways for me but it lacks rezistive touch screen accuracy (i am using vnc alot) and i think Desire's optical trackball can compensate.( i really miss the good old stylus). For now i have 3 choices :

1. buy a new hd2

2. Desire

3. Nokia N900 (but i hate Nokia)

I don't know what to do...

WM i need for a number of reassons:

- office mobile (create and edit)

- order contacts by company

- total commander

- opera mobile - best browser

- i can develop small applications using Lazarus (pascal is the only language that i know)

- IGO / Garmin as offline navigation software

If Android can provide this i have no need for WM, but since then let's find a way to flash windows mobile on it, even if this hack will be used by very few old fashion guys. :-)
[Desire General] NCFreezz:
OMG

OMG! who would want a WM7 OS on there new android phone?

That would be like installing MS-DOS6 on your new QuadCore machine..!
[Desire General] ziao:
i lol'd [filler]
[Desire General] _Dejan_:
I will be happy if there will be any chanse to change rom to WM6.5 because Android is still not so good as WM and missing some features...
[Desire General] ziao:
Seriously.. you HAVE to be trolling
[Desire General] _Dejan_:
Im serious. As I read last days this forum Im see many things which are downgrade if I compare it to my Kaiser:

-No copy/paste

-No multitasking(example browse on web copy some things put it into word, continue browsing, again copy some things and put it into same document)...

-No USB sync(I will never share my personal data with google) as I know HTC Sync do not sync with MS Outlook 2007/2010 task, notes, files.

And maybe some other things too for which currently I don't know if is possible:

-use browser with certificates(banking, cPanel WHM...)

-disable threaded SMS/MMS?

-Is possible set more than one email account? I need 3x pop3/smtp email accounts.

-Have structured outlook synchronized email same as in desktop pc(folders)

-app/pack which can work with word, excel, power point files(read&edit)?

...
[Desire General] ziao:
Theres definitly copy/paste support

Multitasking is possible, and far superior to WM imo

Dont know abput sync, might be an app for that?

All of your concerns on the bottom are there, including a full featured browser, which does more then pocketIE will ever do.

Trust me, you'll be fine, I'm sure many people can back me up on this
[Desire General] _Dejan_:
Thanks for your reply. For sync I know for one app but is not free. I hope that I will be happy with desire :D
[Desire General] Kiiv:
Still in ALPHA but I think it will be great : http://www.android-sync.com/

Search the forum, there is some other links of sync app working with Outlook.
