If you're going onto t-mobile, then buy direct.

that way you definitely get the both. MPD may not put you on the right contract.

And besides, T-mobile are doing better deals direct i believe...
[Desire General] oldmortality:
They did do better deals until they upped their prices! I might just wait and see if they drop them back down when they get a proper amount of stock..
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
didn't realise they had....thinking about it though, they did the exact same thing last august when i got the hero, and a couple of years ago when i got the Athena...
[Desire General] ardsar:
Can anyone tell me how to switch of the DTMF tone on dialling?

THanks

PS - I'm a newbie when it comes to android - got bored with WM.
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
DO you mean the keyboard tones? DTMF tones are something else entirely!

when in phone press menu and look in settings for keybaord tones.

but be warned, when you turn these off, DTMF tones will also be disabled and your voicemail will stop working, because you wont be able to select menu items when you call automated lines like voicemail.
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
and yes i know i said they were different things entirely, and they are, it just for some stupid reason, android has linked them together!
[Desire General] ardsar:
Thanks for that. I've turned them off and can still access the menus within the vodafone voicemail service. Just found them annoying especially when in work!

Best to do for now is to install "Startup Auditor" or similar, and prevent it from starting/running during phone use.

[General Questions and Answers] rahlquist:
I have tried several and all let the phone ring before identifying and blocking the caller, has no one found a hook to get in before the ringing starts and hold of a ring until the caller is identified?

Thanks

Have you tryed Magicall?

http://www.mobiion.com/magicall.html
[General Questions and Answers] rahlquist:
Nope will contact them next. I have tried all the free apps out there and even registred one that I didnt find a demo for until its too late. All of the let the phone right for about 5 seconds, not exactly what I consider "call blocking". I contacted the one I purchased and here was their response.
[General Questions and Answers] rahlquist:
I have to say Magicall works! Not a peep or vibration from my phone on a blocked call coming in. Thanks for the tip!
[General Questions and Answers] rsacipher:
Does Magicall work on 6.5? I have been using Call SMS Blocker but if I am on a call when the blocked call comes in it kills the radio and puts the current call on hold. If I can quickly get back to the call status screen I can take the call off of hold if not it disconnects.
[General Questions and Answers] rahlquist:
For me my rule doesnt fire when I am on a call, but you should try the demo and find out for yourself. I am very happy with magicall.
[General Questions and Answers] ftgg99:
Yep, the two best ones are made by the same company:

Root Call Blocker (for general use):

https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.rootcallblocker.beta

Call Master (for advanced users):

https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.blacklist

These are the only blockers that completely block everything without turning the screen on. Need to be rooted though.
[General Questions and Answers] Xenous:
I have used Root call Blocker(Rooted user only) and its the only app where the calling party does not get to hear "User busy" which might give an impression that you intentionally disconnected the call. On the receiving end the phone will never ring.
[General Questions and Answers] f(android):
+1 for call master, after a couple of duds, this one was good for me. not too advanced.
[General Questions and Answers] jigabop:
"SPC" or "private SMS & call" has a blacklist feature that will block calls and texts from numbers you put in to it.
[General Questions and Answers] Torin_93:
Been thinking about one of these myself. Hmmmm

Can anyone say "Crazy ex-girlfriend"?
[General Questions and Answers] rahlquist:
Hmm I use afirewall https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lianyun.afirewall.inapp nowdays (this question is a couple years old). It works quite well, it also requires root. It also does not turn on the screen when performing a block.
[General Questions and Answers] Anand MKO:
Whare can I download Magicall.. Because your link doesn't work. Plz tell me.
[General Questions and Answers] dgaud007:
In case anybody else was having the same issue, where you can't set the custom forecast date in the newer 6.5 ROMS with Cash Organizer 2007 or 2008. The solution for me was to disable the HTC custom Date Picker:

To disable the custom date picker, DELETE or RENAME this value from the registry:

HKLM\SYSTEM\GWE\Commctrl\CustomDateTimeCtrl

Thanks to lpaso for the registry list.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the.nebular:
I have the WiFi analyzer app and think it's wonderful, however, it does not display the noise level and thus doesn't display the SNR which is a bit more useful when I'm using the phone to test my DD-WRT range.

hello people

I have tried using driks rezo icons in hdwalls to create a new slider but to no avail and wondered if anyone could give some guidance. I would like to either use those or Matt Jacksons devotion slider but I am not sure how.

any ideas

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Pablo84:
I was hoping for something less time involved, but that sounds a bit cheeky bearing in mind how much time some of you guys put into the mods!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] horrorview:
Yeah, I can only imagine. All I'm good for are icons and wallpapers. As far as getting the HD Walls slider thing to work, well, I came up goose eggs on that, sadly. Shame, too, as it is a REALLY easy interface!! I wish someone could come up with a tool that would allow you to make those sorts of changes (including taskbars!) in a nice GUI as that :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Pablo84:
it's made more frustrating by the fact that it's like the last piece in the jigsaw. Only need to sort sliders out and it's nearly looking like the phone i'd like. although....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] horrorview:
I'm currently working on a Fallout theme and have the wallpaper, slider icons, and some of the app icons done. I just need someone to help me mod the clock and make my slider icons work and I'm golden! LOL. I'm going to post and see if anyone wants to volunteer and we can put the components for the theme up on here as a group effort! :)

that would be nice have to get the fifties ring tone to go with it, always an oblivion man myself.
[S740, S743 ROM Development] bill48105:
Hello all,

Since jockyw2001 was so nice to release Rose hardspl I spent the time finding official ROM's to test them out. In the process I extracted the radios from each & did a rebuild with pof's yang 1.1 using the following process:

1. Grabbed yang 1.1 from XDA
2. Extracted yang to a folder
3. Extracted RUU_signed.nbh from an official ROM exe file into yang folder using winrar
4. Opened CMD & went to yang folder
5. Ran yang -X RUU_signed.nbh (To extract all files)
6. Ran yang -F REBUILT_RUU_signed.nbh -t 0x301,0x200,0x600,0x400 -f 00_GSM_0x301.nb,01_SPL_0x200.nb,02_MainSplash_0x600.nb,03_OS_0x400.nb -s 64 -d ROSE***** -c 11111111 -v 1.00.000.0 -l WWE (To test SignMaxChunkSize. If rebuilt NHB is same size as original then we're golden otherwise I would have tried 1024 per the instructions)
7. Renamed 00_GSM_0x301.nb to GSM.nb (This step may not be necessary but I wanted to be safe & was pretty sure the original filename was GSM.nb)
8. Ran yang -F RADIO_RUU_signed.nbh -t 0x301 -f GSM.nb -s 64 -d ROSE***** -c 11111111 -v 1.00.000.0 -l WWE
9. Copied RADIO_RUU_signed.nbh to folder with CustomRUU.exe, renaming it to RUU_signed.nbh
10. Ran CustomRUU.exe to flash to phone & test, confirming it went on OK, had signal & radio version matched

NOTES: I set version to 1.00.000.0 to hopefully make it obvious this wasn't a full ROM but the fact it's 22MB should be pretty good indicator. I set Device ID/model to ROSE***** so it should go on any Rose. CID was set to 11111111 as shown per examples in yang instructions. Language was set to WWE although not sure that matters.

These radios are all from official shipped rom's that I found on XDA without anything changed other than using the procedure above. I tested them all on my S740 (installed & made sure I had a signal with TMobile SIM but no further testing was done) but USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. I can't be held responsible if you bork your phone or lose your data. The included CustomRUU.exe shouldn't require a hard reset but I'd highly recommend you backup just in case.

Here are the radio files:

S740RoseRadioAsia_12.23.30.06H_0.24.30.24 7.92MB

S740RoseRadioEurope12.23.30.06H_0.24.30.24 7.92MB

S740RoseRadioOrange_12.29.30.09H_0.29.30.22 8MB

S740RoseRadioRus_12.23.30.06H_0.24.30.24 7.92MB

S743RoseRadioBrightPoint_12.29a.30.12H_0.29.30.33 7.95MB

Hope these prove useful to someone.

Bill

With a little help of jockyw2001 I'm soon uploading non-brand us rom and hopefully u can extract it's radio and add it to your list ;)
[S740, S743 ROM Development] bill48105:
Soz, shout out to sasiskas for posting up 2 of the roms I used. :D

Yeah that would be cool but I've not been able to do radio from dump yet.. I did a rebuild of a Touch Dual NEON rom from a dump awhile back and it wasn't too fun but once you get the process down it's not so bad I suppose but it was rom only, no radio.
[S740, S743 ROM Development] Jerry-S:
Hi Bill, thanks for your continued efforts.

One thing, and this is going to make me sound very thick, but I can't get the installer to run.

It reports that it fails to initialise. Should this be run on the phone or on a PC.

lol, told you i'd sound stupid, lol
[S740, S743 ROM Development] bill48105:
Hey Jerry-S,

You plug the phone into USB & run the flasher on the computer which uses active sync to update the phone, just like flashing any ROM.

Btw, in case you are not caught up I am pretty sure your phone needs jocky's hardspl installed 1st. I say that because that gets installed the same way as these radios & if you're lost doing the radio odds are you didn't do the hardspl yet. :D

Hello

I'm new in these things, so I would like to help.

Will soon acquire an HTC S743, but has two problems. One is that language is not in Portuguese, the other is the FM radio does not work, the icon does not even appear to turn it on.

Did any of the roms posted here I solved the problem? and even now, like flashing my HTC S740?

I await response

[HD Mini General] nivi78:
It looks like some users in the Forum already got the HD mini. Does anyone know which (online) shop already have the WWE version in Stock? The only shop I found is "brack.ch" but they only deliver within Switzerland (i live in Germany).

The HD mini didn´t got too much positiv feedback so far but for me there is no alternative, since I need a software that is only available for WM6.x and Iphone. And since I want a capacitive screen and the HD2 is too big for my taste, and I already been frustrated enough by Apple products, the HD mini seems to be the only option.
[HD Mini General] rigo007:
expansys has the english version on stock.
[HD Mini General] nivi78:

[HD Mini General] nivi78:
yeah... expansis seems do be quite expensive (hence the name?). Furthermore the phone doesn´t seem to be in stock anymore.

@Frank, do you know any onlineshop in the netherlands that has the HD mini in stock and ship to other countries?

Thx for the feedback guys!
[HD Mini General] ianjd:
Clove certainly stock them and ship overseas.
[HD Mini General] Frank C:
Hello Nivi78, they seem to be on stock with several suppliers, though these are Dutch versions......

There are shops which have the English version for 355 euro but only ships in Holland.

If you want can order and re-route the phone to you.....
[HD Mini General] nivi78:
Thanks a lot for your offer Frank Caarls! That´s really kind of you. But I think it´ll just be easier to order from clove.co.uk.

[Hero CDMA General] Mistamike17:
I could've sworn this was a discussion forum about the development of the CDMA Hero. Weird.

I must be lost because these people don't want to know any of the news (which does often include rumors).
[Hero CDMA General] jonnythan:
For the uninitiated:

This is the exact same blogger who posted that Sprint officially released the 2.1 update for the Moment last Thursday and then, days later, edited the post (without any indication that it had been edited) to say that it had been leaked.

Now he has posted that the Hero update will come to Sprint on the 16th... and then, days later, edited the post (without any indication that it had been edited) that it's actually the worldwide release on the 16th and will eventually find its way to Sprint.
[Hero CDMA General] dwertz:
You are not lost, but this same link has come up like already 8 times. I believe the mods are deleting them. It is not for the CDMA Hero though, its for the GSM Europe Hero.
[Hero CDMA General] Mistamike17:
Fair enough.
[Hero CDMA General] revlayle:
Even if this is true, the subject is a bit misleading.

Android 2.1 is already out, months ago. I think all this says, that HTC's blend of Android 2.1 (with Sense UI) is finally done... NOW, that can be trickled down to carriers so they can package their own updates... meaning, if this is true, the Sprint update would not be on 4/16, maybe a couple of weeks later or something (unless they already have in-house builds that take HTC's release candidates and just adds Sprint's stuff in an automated fashion - then MAYBE, just maybe, a week delay - but this is now TRULY speculation).

And an official 2.1 will help the devs because there are some bugs still in the ROM's, but then again Sprint released the phone with some bugs.

I spoke to an official unofficially about all of the unofficial rumors about the offiicial update..

This official, said that officially, he can't say officially when the update will begin to roll out.

However, he did say that unofficially, we will all know when the official update is being rolled out. This will be the time when the official words comes from the top officials and is posted offiically.

He did say that offiically, any unofficial rumor should not be relied on to be an official update date. But unofficial rumors may become official, only when officially made offiicial on their official update date.
