Home button is cool if you happen to only touch the end call button and never anything else. I personally called a friend and sent 4 blank texts to someone, don't ask me how....

Home button will cause as many problems. Notification bar coming down is the best way I've found....
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Avalaunchmods:
an even better way. hold the menu button down.

the keyboard is a great shield.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] doojer:
I will try that one. Seems like it could work, thanks.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] muppetman462:
Well, google is my friend, i don't know why I doubted ye...

Screen Suite does it for me. The app is $1.99, but it has a setting where it automatically locks the screen on calls.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] chfields:
A bluetooth headset negates that problem completely......
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] doojer:
How do you like it? I found it and it seemed kind of bloated with a lot of features I don't need. Does it eat up memory/power?

I am interested....
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Nanan00:
I don't get why you guys are having so many issues with this, my phone screen locks at the default of 30s when in calls, it has done this as long as I have had the phone.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] doojer:
Mine usually does. Unless it thinks I'm pressing things with my face, which keeps it awake.

That is... if my face doesn't end the call by the time the 30 seconds is up. My guess? It's probably the shape of our faces? :confused:
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mrcharlesiv:
I just try to hold the bottom part of the screen away from my face. Once the screen turns off I've never hung up on someone.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] doojer:
I do this too. It's very annoying.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] pipskicks:
Hmm another good one! Any keyboard presses do anything nasty? I'm on swype but I wonder if hitting the mic button on the hacked keyboard would do anything annoying.

Thanks for the tip!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] muppetman462:
My main problem is when my wife calls, and wants to talk to my son. His face is a lot smaller, and well, everything get screwed up when he uses the phone. As for the program, it does have a lot of features, but all I did was have it set to auto-lock on phone calls. I still have my default vanilla lock screen.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jonnythan:
Lack of a both a proximity sensor and dedicated screen-off button is this phone's single unforgivable flaw.

I will never again buy a touchscreen device without at least one of these.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thankyousir:
that's cool

Screen Suite

there is an app in the market called 'screen suite', not free but i think it only costs about $2.00.

Anyways, it uses a slider lockscreen (like the iphone) it automatically overrides the htc (or modded if applicable) lockscreen and becomes default lockscreen(only while the app is running of course which it starts with the phone and only exits when task kill it)). It will also bring up the slider lock while making a call, receiving a call, and during a phone call. Variations of when it comes up can be found in the settings.

works great for me, never have to worry about my ear disrupting anything and the fact that it also locks while making a call is nice.

I have found it to not affect the speed of the phone, nor any battery loss. It does on rare but occasional instances where you will have to slide both the original lockscreen and screen suite's lockscreen both, but no harm and it only happens once out of maybe every 30 lockscreens if not less than that.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tseidel:
Im sure everyone has found this by now but there is a way to remove the huge end button on the screen but only if you rooted see this thread

On my old Rhodium TP2 there was a feature to automatically activate speaker when placing phone face down. Is that possible with HD2?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Err... yeah. You just place it face down ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dolby71:
LOLLLL

didn't know that
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ma6inista:
It never worked for me for some reason. It could be disabled but I can't find the setting to turn it on. Anyway, I am planing to do a hard reset this weekend and see if that feature is back.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
I can only assume it will be there after a hard reset, as it's something I've used countless times and have never had to enable it. (I seem to remember reading it in the manual too!)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] daigoro64:

Working on Axlor.

Weird this, ive always wanted it!

and just never tried it :confused::D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] alex fung:
that's strange. the feature is documented in the HD2 manual, so it at least works on all stock ROMs. If not, approach HTC support.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] bravo261:
i'd say if it doesn't work, its something related to a flashed rom and a setting more than anything else

Turing On Speaker While Facing Up More Useful

I would rather somehow have the proximity sensor turn the spearkers on while the phone is facing up because it would be nice to multi-task and take notes or update my contacts while I am talking to that person/business. For example, a business gives me an RMA so I would have to edit my notes for that contact and enter the RMA number. I can't do this while the phone is faced down.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] JonFolse:
yea the speaker function works the same on mine as on the TP2 :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Tung_meister:
Is there a setting or reg key that I can change to enable this? (doesn't work on Artemis 6.0)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kurika:
Maybe it's too late and you already found the solution but here it goes for other people:

To turn the

HD2's

speaker on do one of these:

1 - Long press phone button (furtherest left)

2 - Turn it upside down

3 - On the call screen slide down & press the speaker's button

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] sike222:
hey guys,

I got asphalt 4 for my beloved hd2. It plays ok in career mode until i get about 30% through. Then the game just crashes. It basically just disappears?

One minute it is racing fine then the game simply stops and i am back to the clock screen on the phone. If i access task manager it no longer shows the game as running?

I have tried chainfires great hd2 driver and that has not resolved the issue. I tried uninstalling the game and installing it direct onto the phone, instead of the storage card, still i get the same thing happen. Sometimes just before it stops you can see a couple of horizontal lines appear where the car is. Also it seems to happen when the car crashes with another car. Maybe too much info for the graphics card?

So does anyone have any ideas? Also i do not know if it is connected or not. However, today also opera browser started doing the same thing?

cheers for any advice/help.

[Hero CDMA General] d0nc0l0:
handcent??
[Hero CDMA General] thedudejdog:
short answer: no.

hand cent and other messaging apps just read the messages out of the stock app.

if you remove it then you won't get any messages. but nandroid and try it, don't take my word for it
[Hero CDMA General] flipzmode:
You can turn off all notifications in the stock app and use handcent. It will show up in your app drawer but other than that it's like it's not there.
[Hero CDMA General] d0nc0l0:
im getting 2 notifications on my device. i desable the notification on the stock app but still shows up.
[Hero CDMA General] sdotcarlisle:
in the stock app make sure in menu/settings you uncheck auto retrieve as well as received notification.
[Hero CDMA General] d0nc0l0:
i did. i was reading in this forum that it was the beautiful widget
[Hero CDMA General] flipzmode:
If you have everything turned off in the stock app then yea, it's beautiful widgets giving you that notification.

Is it possible to store all sms and mms on sd card?
[Android Apps and Games] thefoss:
I've been searching for an app that will allow me to designate specific contacts or groups to override silent mode. For instance, I love sleep. I don't get enough of it. BUT, my girlfriend or boss or family need to be able to get a hold of me, so when they call or text it will notify me, even in silent mode. I believe Blackberry's have a feature like this.

this gave me the idea

http://forums.crackberry.com/f99/can-i-assign-contacts-override-silent-398899/

Ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] bluekgt:
There is an app called auto ring that will do that. I use it for the same reasons
[Android Apps and Games] thefoss:
Just tried it. Perfect!
[Android Apps and Games] malicious85:
i use foxyring, lets you set sleep hours, auto silencing, emergency contact list that can ring thru sleep hours with special ringtones. It can even do location based audio profiles. want your phone to auto switch to vibrate when you walk into work? it can do that. It even audio samples your current environment and adjusts your ringtone based on the ambient noise in the area you are located.

:D
[Android Apps and Games] jmbode:
I love this app, but I wish it could do something else though, and having a hard time trying to search on it.

Just like Auto ring allows for certain contacts to override the state of the phone, I would like certain APPS to be able to override the state of the phone, for example, I would like my weather app to send its notification sound when weather alerts come out, regardless if the phone is on silent or vibrate ...

Sorry for hijacking the thread ...
[Hero CDMA General] noonanjs:
Has anyone figured out how to turn off the option of sending text messages to land lines in the contact page? This is the only thing preventing me from switching to a 2.1 rom. It is just really frustrating when you have someones work and home phone numbers and have to sort through three messaging options to find their mobile. Any help would be great, thanks

I am guessing this is something that will be fixed when sprint puts out there release. At least I hope or I will be sticking with 1.5

Can anyone asnwer some questions i have with the google sync for email contacts etc

2) is there any way to set a limit to the email download - ie 20K per message? It currently appears to download the complete message.

Thanks
[Desire General] dpk:
1) I'm pretty sure it doesn't.

2) Not sure, sorry.

I use HTCs email app, I find that it's much better, plus it handles push email as well.
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
1) it is going to be something similar yes, it is after all push mail in that app. i doubt it is specifically exchange, but it'sgoing to be something like it.

2) no.

as for htc's own email app......oh hell no! but that's just my opinion.
[Desire General] D-fens:
1 - Yes

2- Yes - open email client, press menu button, klick (***) more -> settings -> Send and recive -> on the top is what you are askin' .

Hi all

Ive had my htc hd2 since nov on Vodafone

ive been through all the official rom releases right up till 1.72 just released on voda

but nothing has changed and i find it boring just waiting on these little fixes

I have HSPL installed

all i need is the best version of WM 6.5.3

Please please please be kind enough and point me in the right direction of good rom experience

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
As people look for different things in a rom, and as we all install our own little tweaks and apps, the experience can be different for each person. Go to the threads at the top of the forum listing as these are the most current/popular and read the last 10 pages or so of posts - that will give you an idea of bugs being experienced. Look at the screenshots on the first page and then try a few for yourself to see what roms best suit your needs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] unque1:
okay i hear you

I just wanted something stable but with most of the lastest featured tabs

Ive been reading just now there seem alot to choose from

hopefully the installs are as simple as the normal rom updates

apologies you expert must get this all the time

try smaberg's and dutty's they both have a great rom
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
No worries bud, you can try my favourite, linked in my signature below ;). I like these roms, but as I said roms are personal to a large extent and each chef has their ardent fans all claiming that their chefs roms are the best. The only real way to get an objective view is to try a few and decide for yourself.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] unque1:
I was just considering that rom - is this a 6.5.3 version ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] unque1:
Theres also

two download vesions to choose from

Energy.Leo.21898.Sense2.5.Cookie.HomeTab.Apr.14.7z 168.3Mb

Energy.Leo.23557.Sense2.5.Cookie.HomeTab.Apr.14.7z 168.6Mb
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
The 23557 rom is a 6.5.5 rom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
23557 is WM 6.5.x

take a look here - I did cook a version of this before moving onto the Desire:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] unque1:
6.5.5 ?? okay didnt know we moved on from 6.5.3

i'll download that

and give it a go

hopefully it should be compatible on my uk vodafone HD2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
It's just a different development branch from 6.5.3. It will work on your phone - just ensure that you flash either the 2.07.50 or 2.08.50 radio otherwise the device will hang on the White HTC boot screen.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sarngate:
I have to send away my phone for repair (USB port is dying) and i was hoping to restore everything to stock just to make sure there are no problems when they take a look at it.

I'm running 'Duttys Leo Multi-Lang V1.1' ROM but i installed this way back in January and to be honest i can't even remember how i went about doing it in the first place.

If anybody could tell me where to start i'd be really grateful.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Sultan1993:
download official stock ROM from your carrier site, or HTC site, and install it by clicking on .exe file
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sarngate:
Will that remove the HSPL too ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
If you flash it via sd card. Right click on the exe stock rom file downloaded and select Extract here. Then copy to .nbh file to the root of your sd card. Ensure it is named leoimg.nbh and then flash from the card.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Sultan1993:
you can use HSPL to change it to 1.42.0000 SPL. there is an option there
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Only if using HSPL2. As he installed the rom in January, HSPL2 was not yet out, so I'm assuming he used HSPL1 ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sarngate:
The SPL is indeed 1.42.0000, im just downloading a ROM now and i'll report back in a second :o
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
I had HSPL on my phone and used HSPL2 to remove it - works fine
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sarngate:
Ok so i copied the .nbh to the SD Card, renamed it and restarted the phone while holding down the volume button but it just took me to the Bootloader screen.

Do i have to do anything specific to get it to install ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] wardh:
Did you format the sd-card in FAT32?

It should ask you to press power button or something to flash if everything is right
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Thanks m8, never knew that - one can always learn something new ;)

When the phone boots into bootloader it should identify the leoimg file on the sd card and allow you the option to flash by pressing the power button. Did you copy the file to the root of the storage card, ie not to any sud-folder? If so then it could be that you may need to try another sd card as not all cards work with this. The 2gb cards are said to be best.

You can also try to just run the .exe normally from the pc to flash the rom and then use hspl2 to change your spl back as suggested by EddyOS.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
Yeah, I didn't think it wouldn't work - just put my stock 1.66 ROM back on and then changed the SPL back using HSPL2 - job a goodun!!

Anyone wanna buy an HD2? ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sarngate:
Thanks for the advice guys, i'm off to work now but i'll have a look at it when i get home.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jigners:
you have to put custom ruu together with the .nbh file in the root directory of the card:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ClydeB1:
Not true ;), only the .nbh file

Does anybody know how can I type my SMSes on PC and send through my HTC?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
I used to do that on my N95 and it was great, but I've never seen a winmo version of the same. The closest I have come is to use MyMobiler (http://www.mymobiler.com) which gives you remote control of the phone on your PC.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Korv:
You can use i-nigma reader.

Then create a barcode and select SMS, you enter in the number and the text then scan it in.

It's pretty neat.

http://www.i-nigma.com/CreateBarcodes.html
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Or you could just post something that is 100% irrelevant to the question. Whatever.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Korv:
Excuse me?

If you install the app 'i-nigma reader' from opnmarket or find it online. You can then create an SMS message on your PC using that link I supplied. It will then create a barcode which you scan in on your phone and you press send. It then sends it through your HTC, while writing it on your PC.

It's not irrelvant whatsoever. It's an extremely good app/alternative to what he wanted.

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pashuha:

[Hero, G2 Touch General] jakethecatuk:
Just been talking to HTC Support about a problem with my Hero. I also asked them about the 2.1 update and she said (and I quote) '...the 2.1 update will be an over the air update which will be for T-Mobile and unbranded Hero's and will start on 30th April. Other operators will follow later. This is for the UK, other countries will have different release dates...'

So guys, another one to add to the mix.

Now don't start flaming me for posting this and don't acuse me of lying - I am merely passing on what HTC told me today.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tweedie:
well I guess its better news this time since its promised date is getting shorter each time they mention it (ie its not like next month or whatever they keep saying).

Not hold my breath anyway - bit the bullet a couple of weeks ago and installed villianRom 5.2 - seems to work well with a few glitch but nothing to cry home about.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Lennyuk:
I won't accuse you of lying but nothing will be set in stone until an official date is confirmed in a press release.

So I hope its true, but chances are it will get hit my more delays.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] tweedie:
Actually, quite surprise that T-mobile will be the same time as unbranded phones though. usually carrier phones comes after sim free ones.
