[General Questions and Answers] xxThugxx @ TPB:
there is no diffrence between an orange branded Touch HD and a standard htc one, if you want to modify it just install the lastest gsm HSPL in the Touch HD section. check the htc e-club for the lastest official rom (U need HSPL first to bypass the CID check) and the latest cooked roms can be found in the HD rom development section :)

i'm a rookie and i don't know if i'm asking these question right:

i just installed cookie monster w/cht editor (all new version) and after some searching and reading here in the forum, i fell in love with the bsb tweaks offering. but after just about a minute running on my hd2(unlock); correct me if i'm wrong, but i think bsb tweaks and cookie monster installed together complicates more my device specially on "auto lock". anyone have these cab both on their device. i first installed the cookie monster and arranged everything, then after installing bsb, i have to do two times the "unlock". after some checking i found out the "default setting lockscreen" of cht editor was turned "on". i think these two cabs should not be installed together. what do you think, thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] MichelDiamond:
The .cab's install together is no problem. I would say, that the most users,who have Cookies Home Tab also have BsB-Tweaks running.

It's only a question of settings - Autolock uses "normal" Windows Lock in BsB, and Cookie added Manilalock - and if you change on both... then 2 lockscreens are running at the same time.

If you'd have two switches for your lamp in your living room,you would know,that only one switch should be switched to get light. Both would switch it off...and in case of lockscreen - the lampwould get the double power...and you know what happens to a lamp with to much energy... :)

So - if you use CHT-Lockscreen - then switch off Autolock in BsB and all is fine :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] noodles222:
Well, i have Bsb and CHT installed, in CHT go to lockscreen option and turn off Enable default lockscreen and turn on Enable CHT lockscreen.. dont understand why these two aplications should not run together..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Sentinel196:
That's an excellent explanation!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] optiknerv:
You have probably turned on (or not turned off) the standard windows lock. If you want to use the CHT lockscreen then disable the standard windows lock. This can be done in BSB tweaks and CHT Editor also has an option to disable it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] imakul8:
Thanks for answer also. I thought BSB Tweaks would conflict with Cookies Home Tab and Editor. No issues.:) These are great apps!

the reason I asked is because I am having problems rooting it per the instructions on this website.

this phone recently got sent back to htc for service, and they flashed it to the "latest" rom they said. dunno what that means.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ECLIPS3:
good news is, that you are stock, so you can root your phone.

and yes, chances are you will then have to reflash it to metropcs. but since you already did that once, the next time will be easier. if you do run into trouble, then just ask us in the IRC channel at irc.wastate.net #droideris or #erisroothelp

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
I think that he meant this one. Basically, install a terminal app , if one is not already installed, and open it. If you see a "#" prompt, you are rooted. If you see a "$" prompt and then enter the command "su" (and grant permission to the terminal app if you get prompted to by the SuperUser app), if it changes to a "#" you are rooted.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
For the Eris, there are at least 5 different ways to "root" your phone, and the most recent & easiest methods (One Click or Dummies) don't even touch the primary OS - they just install a custom recovery boot which allow you to replace the entire OS by flashing a "rooted" OS into place (or, add a root toolkit to the existing "stock" ROM). So, running "su" may not tell you much.

For most rooted ROMs, the "su" terminal/shell program and the Superuser app act as a pair - when any other app requests superuser privileges the first time, the Superuser app will pop up on the screen and ask you whether you want to allow or deny the app requesting root privileges. There will be a check-box on that screen that will allow the Superuser app to remember your choice. If you have ever seen this pop-up, then I suppose you have a rootkit installed correctly.

Note that if you look away from your phone for too long while that pop-up is on screen, the Superuser app will time out - and decide that the requesting app should always be denied.

The Superuser app keeps a list of apps that have previously requested root - start the Superuser app directly from the launcher, and you will see the list. If there is one in there that is erroneously marked as "deny", tap on that entry and select "forget". Then, the next time you start the app in question, keep a lookout for that Superuser app pop-up.

The fact that you get a "permission denied" message when trying "su" from a terminal session means one of two things, either:

- you previously denied access to "su" (or looked away from the screen, and missed the pop-up), or

- your ROM is not correctly rooted.

HTH

PS note that this thread is extremely old - it references methods and techniques which will still work, but are quite a bit more tedious than newer methods. Also, it helps people responding to your inquiry if you mention a few tidbits about your phone : what you have done to the phone,the bootloader version, the (full) kernel version, the "Software #", etc.

[HD2 General] TopOfNewYork:
I am having an issue with sense storing text messages from the same numbers under separate threads on my TMOUS. One thread for the Sim contact entry of the phone number and one thread for the HD2's stored contacts that I have imported from the SIM...Its really annoying.

In the phone tab you can easily change "View" to Contacts so that you don't have to look at duplicates of every single entry every time you enter your phonebook but when I compose a new text message there is no way to have the sense only show me the HD2's contacts. It always shows me all the duplicate entries of the same numbers SIM contacts and as well as tabs for the same contacts that were imported to the device.

In order to not lose my contacts permanently, do I have to save my SIM contacts externally, import them to my phone then delete them off my SIM in order to have my phone contacts (which are superior to SIM bc I can load them with multiple numbers email addresses, etc) be the only contacts and threads sense makes in the messaging app???

There has to be an easier way to resolve this? What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for the help...

I did the img update and recently installed iTag. Now the 6 screens are gone I have a weird applications slider, no android widgets, no phone tab on the home screen.

I would like to just start from scratch and put the phone back to stock.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadesdan:
I'm not sure about itag, but if you flashed the 2.1 leak then you can't go back to stock. NOt yet.

You can re-flash the .img and revert to your default 2.1, or you can go to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications and then find either Home or HTC Sence (or both) and press "clear defaults", the when you press the home key it will ask if you want to use home or sense.

[Desire General] Borgini:
Got my desire a few days ago and the gps does not work. Fails to get a fix, gps icon flashes away forever but never fixes. Completely useless. Phoned HTC several times, some technical help people at HTC say there is a problem none are working, which is consistent with the fact a number of friends who all have the same problem with their desires and yet other HTC technical help say their is no problem but mine is broke and to return it for replacement. Anyone got any thoughts
[Desire General] tarmacsurfer:
I've been quite impressed with the GPS, fast lock and holds it. A steady 12 satellites even indoors. Certainly had no problem at all with it, UK Vodafone (although it may be a generic rom, no branding at all) handset.

[Desire General] joe2316:
Something's wrong with your unit as the GPS lock (flashing to solid) is seriously fast, like 5-10 seconds outdoors, and 15-20 seconds indoors for me.

Have you tried downloading GPS Status from the market? That can help by indicating if you are tracking satellites etc.
[Desire General] Borgini:
im outside

I'm outside testing my gps, environmental factors can also be ruled out as iPhone 3gs was tested at the dame time and locations and worked flawlessly so its definitely my phone
[Desire General] pwy:
Same problem here. GPS status shows sometimes up to 6 satellites but never get a lock. :(
[Desire General] midamsax:
How do you actually see the number of satellites?
[Desire General] tarmacsurfer:
I was using Copilot, you can check number of satellites and signal strength in the GPS settings while the app is running.
[Desire General] pwy:
There are a number of free apps in the market. GPS Status, GPS Test,...
[Desire General] mouth:
I'm also experiencing poor/none GPS service and lock.

It's been suggessted that I reboot, sit still (not moving in car) outside with a clear view of sky, and then allow up-to 10min for phone to get GPS lock and download/store empherical(sp?) gps data. From then it should get a fast lock.

Going to try that today.
[Desire General] Ruxton:
I picked up my desire yesterday from T-Life Hay st Perth. I did stuff all with it all day cos i was at work. I got home, ran market, updated maps and went outside waiting for a fix. After 45 minutes I gave up. I downloaded GPS Test and it only found 1 satellite, with a weak signal,located half way between AU & US (judging by the display in GPS Test, which i understand is only so good!).

I started reading threads on it and tried everything. Hard reset, downgraded maps, nothing worked. So I charged it all night and then this morning when i woke up i took the battery out. 30 minutes later i put the battery back in, went outside and tried to fix, 15 minutes in.. nothing.

So i went to T-Life this morning on my way to work with the desire box ready to hand it back and ask for a new one. The girl and guy were a bit dumbfounded when i explained my prob, the chick went out back to talk to "the tech" and came back about 5 or 6 minutes later and told me:

- They're aware of the issue, EVERYONE is having it

- There will be a software update shortly (i asked when)

- It will be "sometime after the long weekend"

So I thanked her and left, after all if EVERYONE is having the problem, it surely can't be hardware.

Now, how many of you with Telstra desires actually have a GPS that can hold a location? from what i read this problem is ULTRA common.
[Desire General] pwy:
Thanks Ruxton, saves me a trip to the T-Life store in Sydney today. :)

Just need to be patient then... not my strong side ;)
[Desire General] Ruxton:
I'd still call or drop in at least to make your issue known. If everyone accepts it's "going to be fixed" it'll take forever. Where as if everyone lets them know they have a problem, it'll probably gain higher priority to be fixed.

[Desire General] Dinty:
i suppose this marks my return to XDA devs after quite a while (if only it was under happier circumstances lol) :)

but yes, i too am having issues with the GPS. As I mentioned in the thread over on whirlpool, i went back to Telstra and replaced the HTC Desire unit yesterday and am still having the same issue with the new unit.

I also called HTC's customer support line, where I was told that they were aware of the issue and their senior engineers were working on it, but he didn't have any more information other than that.

I'll also swing back into the Telstra store later on as well. I guess the more of us that complain to them, the more they'll realise it needs to be fixed!
[Desire General] oursoul:
GPS on the Desire is perfect here.. get a lock, even indoors in seconds, very very impressed :)
[Desire General] Borgini:
HTC told me the same

htc have been giving me different stories every day! One day it is "your desire has a useless gps chip take it back for a replacement" then I'll call again within minutes and get another saying "gps is not yet working on desire models, we will be sending out a fix" I'd love to know which is the true statement! Seems pointless my taking the unit back if they are all the same. But reading through this forum it seems people do have desires with properly working gps. On hunting round the web ive not been convinced people who say their gps is working are not in fact confusing triangulation with gps. This forum will not have that confusion so I must conclude mine is a faulty unit and return for replacement. Would have been nice, after taking the plunge with htc from apple had the customer service not been unhelpful, vague and contradictory. T Mobile were no better, when I called them the guy claimed if I can get on the internet with wifi then my gps chip must be working!
[Desire General] DaddyCee:
have used the latest version of Google Maps with Navigation and no problem in the UK with the Orange Badged Desire handset. Sounds like a dodgy handset, can you get it swapped out under warranty?
[Desire General] Borgini:
Yes

Yes it can be swapped under warranty but that could well be a wasted excercise if in fact its a fault awaiting a fix, then the new handset is likely to have the fault also.
[Desire General] hungabunga:
Just to confirm gps does work I have lock and have used it to navigate. It might be an idea to post rom versions etc so maybe we can narrow the problem down to software if that is causing the problem.

[Known Issue] Telstra (AU) Desire GPS Faulty

Just to confirm, everyone who has a Desire from Telstra (AU) have this problem (GPS doesn't work at all). Looks like Telstra screwed it up when they messed with the default HTC ROM and didn't test it.

Check the Whirlpool thread for the latest updates.

Has anyone been brave enough to replace it with a different ROM to fix the problem? I'm too chicken as no one has extracted the Telstra ROM to put back after and I was told it would void my warranty (which it looks like I'm going to need!)
[Desire General] danprice9:
I'm getting this GPS issue but I'm on the T-Mobile rom in the UK. Had the phone since launch weekend but now it won't connect to GPS. Anyone else in the UK having this issue? Reckon I'm gonna have to send my phone back?!?

[Desire General] Zilch:
Just to be clear - are you saying you bought a Telstra branded Desire a few days ago in Australia, and then installed a T-Mobile ROM on it?

Or you bought your phone in the UK?
[Desire General] danprice9:
Sorry, I bought it in the UK direct from T-Mob. It's a UK model and I live in the UK. I've never flashed the rom or anything just installed the T-Mob update that was pushed a few weeks ago. GPS was fine even after the update but for some reason has stopped working since thurs.
[Desire General] Zilch:
Must be something stuffed. Hopefully just a software issue... I'd take it back. 100% of the Australian ones are stuffed, so at least we are in good company :/

Same problem here. Can see 3 satellites but can't lock it. Signal is very poor :/

[Desire General] Borgini:
RESULT!!

Result, took my htc desire (t mobile uk) back to store and had it replaced with a brand new one. With some trepidation I started the phone up and went straight out into the street switched gps on and opened the maps and bingo! literally within seconds the gps icon showed a solid fix and true enough the map had me to within a few inches of my exact location. Perfect.

That said, I have to say htc were very disappointing throughout, I was misinformed, ignored etc. Still no reply to two of the emails I sent. Got to say, love the desire but htc have inspired no confidence whatsoever for any future purchase. Thats a shame, especially as the problem was proven to be hardware failure and was supplied to me with a broken gps chip. Not premium service by any standard.
[Desire General] snapilica2003:
Hey about these Ephemerids, how do you download them to the Desire. In winmo on my HD you had an app called QuickGPS that did this, but i found nothing about this on the Desire. Any ideeas?
[Desire General] Zilch:
Just as an update, the Australian GPS issues have been fixed with an OTA push from Telstra, or a full (Telstra branded) ROM you can download with the appropriate device serial number from the HTC website.

So far I think 100% fix on the GPS issue.

Hello Folks,

I just wanted to chime in again to offer an "offending viewpoint" about the whole Dell debacle.

I personally think that we are looking at a situation similar to Samsung's here. Keep in mind that both these companies also do business with Microsoft on a much larger front, being desktops and laptops.

At last years MWC, Samsung delcared that it was fed up with WM and wanted to port the whole Omnia series to Symbian. They even showed off an Omnia HD - and gave it all up afterwards.

IMHO, the coincidence is clear - could it be that M$ is using desktop Win pricing? What do you think?

P.S. Odd example is HP...
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
I don't really know what you're talking about, and it seems like a goose hunt to find the articles you're referring to. At the same time, I'm interested in what you're trying to say. Mind getting a few links and adding it to your post?

What Dell Debacle?

Why is Samsung so upset at MS, and they released the Omnia II with WM 6.5...it could have easily been Android?
