Can someone with an .edu address that has signed up PLEASE hook me up with an invite? I have been trying forever to get google voice! I have a google wave invite as a trade off for a google voice invite. Someone please pm me!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] seyer0686:
I just (a few weeks ago) downloaded voice from the market and it let me create an account. Unfortunately it doesn't give you invites. I think the .edu promo might end up being the same way.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] neotrunks014:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] roberts0o0:
If you have an android phone and a gmail you can create a google voice account right on your phone. ive done this on a few and its worked everytime.

simply dl the app and create an account using your gmail, it will automactilly create one. no waiting for invite or requesting one..

you have to do it from your phone because once you create the account it checks your phones settings to make sure the phone number is valid and has not been used.

im kinda posting this quick so if you have questions feel free to PM me
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] squeezmeloud:
Tried everything... still no luck, still looking for invite

I have tried everything, I signed up for more storage on google, tried the .edu "trick", tried registering straight from my phone and nothing so far... does anyone out there have an google voice invite they could share?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gunnyman:
It's my understanding that with 2.1 you don't need an invite to GV anymore, just sign in. Does that work?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] CarbonKang:
if anyone has any left and a wave left i would LOVE to have one. :)

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] gomorrah:

[HD2 General] JayJayW18:
I have a problem with sms ringtone.

When I receive a sms, it only vibrates and will not stop vibrating.

the way I stop it is to press the volume button to "vibration" and then turn up the volume again.

Anyone who knows this problem or knows how to solve it?
[HD2 General] TT Vario 2:
Hi,

I have this problem if I try to pick my own sounds as an alert for sms, if I choose one of the inbuilt default ones, the problem goes away.

So I Installed some cab, for customizing and then removed it. But now before sense starts the background is some image.

I cant find out how to remove it, or fix it back to normal.

Anyone know how? thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mcall_r:
hi ppl,

I am now on my fourth hero through orange UK, having had the previous ones replaced due to.faults with the phone's earpiece.

I am aware that orange's policy to offer a different model replcement after the third replacement, so I am thinking, if my phone breaks again(which I could just make up that it has), what model are they likely to allow me to choose from?

Will it be from the same price range as the hero or will they allow me to choose from something like the desire since its the only other phone that orange offer that runs on HTC sense? (which is why I chose this phone anyway). obviously I wouldn't settle for a tattoo.

any advice from people who have been offered a different model through orange care is much appreciated. also any ideas on what I should say to tie them down to giving me the desire?

thanks a lot

Aaah, Orange, who are replacing my Toshiba TG01 for the 3rd time tomorrow. When I called in I got disconnected loads of times, and eventually got through to sales (who were the only people to pick up inside 10 mins), who then put me straight through to a CSR. The CSR was absolutely useless, barely understood English and was trying to follow a script ("my phone doesn't turn on" - 'ok, can you go into the menu and reset it' - "..."), and eventually decided that I didn't own my own account and refused to help me any more. After repeatedly asking for a manager I got put through to a supervisor and got into an argument with him because although my charger and handset were faulty, Orange would only replace one at a time, would only provide refurbished kit (the failed unit was a damaged refurb device) and I would have to call back for the charger replacement. Eventually I gave in, and the replacement was dutifully shipped to the wrong address.

</rant>

So I wrote in an angry email, and a few hours later one of the email support team called me back. She then agreed to provide a brand new handset, charger, case and battery, and mentioned that if you had more than 3 replacements inside the first 6 months of owning the original device then Orange would offer you a replacement model of a different type and equivalent to what you were replacing. However the models they offered were really nowhere near the TG01, so I am taking a new one and selling it.

As for your case, I would suggest you write the email support team a very detailed explanation of the problems, including dates and so forth, mention the sales of goods act, and at the very least get a factory new Hero you can then sell towards the cost of a Desire. It is very unlikely that Orange will replace your 10 month old Hero with its latest shiny new super-phone at no cost. This is like asking BMW to replace a problematic 1 series with a brand new 7 series.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] cauli:
@mcall_r: If you manage to get a Desire out of Orange do let us know, but I don't rate your chances.

My wife had a similar situation with Orange & a Blackberry, replaced at least 3 times. In her case, on possibly the fourth replacement, they couldn't even offer the same model due to lack of stock. She got bounced round between various people & the only thing that came across consistently was that all they'd offer her was inferior old junk. Some of the staff were exceptionally rude, particularly when she got upset at one point. There was more chance of Santa dropping off a replacement phone (& no it wasn't Xmas), than of these people offering her a replacement that was at least as good as her faulty phone.

She wasn't being unreasonable. She'd have even taken an inferior phone but they couldn't offer her one with gps (though a couple did claim certain models had gps - only when I checked & pressed them they changed that to 'well it has gprs...' Can you believe it? I mean, wtf?)

The last person insisted there was nothing they could do if they had no stock; they could only offer her what the system offered & there was no way for them to know when they'd have more stock in of her existing model.

The next day she called into a local Orange shop to complain before calling trading standards. The guy in the shop was very helpful (& she hadn't needed to mention trading standards; think he was just a nice guy). He told her they'd got stock in that morning & essentially that the woman she'd spoken to the previous evening had lied to her, as she would have known stock was due in.

I know some of the employees are decent human beings & others who might be borderline will be under a lot of pressure, but as a whole, I'd not piss on Orange if they were on fire.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] mcall_r:
Oh dear,

Im sad to hear your stories about orange's poor customer service (in some departments).

Funnily enough I actually work for orange, in an orange shop, and we in retail have little to no contact with what goes on in the call centres which is why i decided to ask on here to see if anyone else has had similar experiences. Also the fact that I do not have the hero on my employee contract, only on the personal one I took out to get it.

I find that through 150 if you go through to the correct options (for instance handset replacement the options are 1,3,1,1) you get through to the nice helpful people in Darlington, North Tyneside or Newcastle, who actually most of the time know what you are talking about.

I cannot say the same about the call centres in India. Their main job is to provide support for accounts, for example adding bundles and changing service plans. They mainly read off a script and have little experience with the mobile phones themselves so do not know the ins and outs of them. Ergo them thinking that GPS and GPRS are the same thing.

So what is the email address for the email support team that I can try and complain to?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bonesy:
Out of curiosity, i am on orange with a 3 month old hero and the earpiece is broken.Is it a common thing? Can i get it replaced for free? Finally i cancelled my insurance and a day later the earpiece failed,did you go via phone insurance? sorry for the questions but i am raging quite a biit that it happened after i cancelled lol
[Hero, G2 Touch General] VaKo:
The email is a page on the site, you have to go through the pages and enter some details to it to the right team. Mark it for the attention of Misha, I found her very helpful.

Insurance or not, you are covered by the sales of goods act, so a 3 month old phone should be fit for purpose. Under that you should be able to get a replacement under that.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bonesy:
Both orange and the company i have got the phone from have said they do not provide a replacement without insurance? I have to send the phone to HTC which i have done with my magic many times,this means no phione for me fora few weeks total BS Tbh
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ajt320:
Hi.

I am using an HTC HD2.

So here's the challenge - or maybe not!

These guys (communicationautism.com) released PixTalk (see there download section), a WM application for children with Autism to allow them to communicate. The dark side (aka IPhone:mad:) have released a commercial application called Grace which achieves the same thing.

PixTalk is Open Source and the licence allows modification and redistribution.

The issue is this: I have been advised that it will not run on 800x420 screens (which is the HTC HD2). I get the following script:

ArgumentOutOfRangeException at System .IO.FileStream_Position(Int64value)

at Pixtalk>Form1.ctor()

at Pixtalk.Program.Main()

I am running it on an HTC HD2 1024Mhz with 800x480 display.

OS version is 5.2.23554.

I am running Microsoft .NET CF 3.5 (which is built into a customized ROM).

One thing I guarantee - I will be donating to the first person who can assist me as I have a 4 year old with Autism and I don't want to buy an IPhone!:)

Thanks in advance

Andrew

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] cdaubenspeck:
Doesn't sound like a screen related error, sounds more like you have a file that its trying to open and it's either missing or corrupt. You say it's open source, but I don't see the source available on their site ... do you have it or can point me to it? If so I'd be happy to take a peek.

I only have the CAB file and associated images at this stage. I have requested the program co-ordinator for the code and will get back to you as soon as I have it.

EDIT: Sorry it is not a CAB but an EXE.

I'll happily look at this once the source is available.

No donations required - I'm just a sucker for a good cause.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hebbe:
it seems that the app tries to read data from a position in the file which is beyond the filesize.

e.g.

the file being read has a size of 2.000 bytes, and the app tries to read from position 2.500.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Archer:
Or trying to read from a file that doesn't exist, and is being created by the stream object (whatever type of stream it actually is). It's pretty much guesswork until we see the source code.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ajt320:
Thanks

Thanks everyone for your great support.:D

The source code is on its way!

I just have to agree that the fix or updated version will be available to communicationautism.com for public download off their site.

The developer has said full credit will be attributable to those of you involved in the fix. I am hoping that will be some good cudos for you guys and gals!

Where can I find this updated version

Hi,

I just downloaded the app from the site, and seem to have similar issues. This is for my autistic son. I found this thread. Can I get the updated app - also for the HD2. I do have dev experience too, so if the source code is available, and the problem is not fixed, I can look at help at fixing it too.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mike2nl:
Hi ajt320,

you are not alone here and outside this forum. I know parents with this child issue. I have donated 4x HD2 contracts to this families because they have not enough money to pay for all this. But 50% from me is a lot and now they are rich in that.

But please can you upload or PM me with the right link? I will help further this people...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] :
Hi all.

My sincere apologies for the delay in responding.

One of the reasons for the silence is work and family but I have admittedly moved to Android for various reasons and did not follow up on this application so kindly CABed up by Mike Mathson back in August.

In fact I am not sure that I still have the CAB because I am using applications from the Android market. I will look for it shortly and if you still want it PM me with a contact email.

Outside of that, thanks to the contributions to date but this is otherwise the end of this thread. If anyone else would like to take it up for WM 6.5.3 users please look through this thread.

Regards and greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mathmason:
I have had another request for this, so I will upload it here for whoever else wants it.

I have it working on my HD2... it probably wont work to well on devices with differing resolutions. As it is, it looks and acts kind of weird, though I suspect the original version did also.

One thing I noticed that may not be obvious is that to exit the program, you touch the bottom (or left it you are holding the phone in landscape mode) of the screen (just above the htc logo) and a new screen will ask you if you want to quit.
[Desire General] copiae:
I just picked up the Desire yesterday from Telstra, and she's an amazing phone, apart from all the preinstalled telstra stuff. I've seen mention of a generic rom floating about but will installing this rom work on the aussie Desire? If so, is there any faq on how to go about flashing the desire?

Thanks in advance,

I believe at this moment, it is not possible to flash to any other ROM other your default one. Not until someone has finally "cracked" the access.

[General Topics] Ms.O:
I've successfully gotten the Pandora app to work great on my HTC Touch Pro 2 phone (WinMo 6.5) following advice from another thread here, and have a device adapter for my larger computer speakers...it sounds great! Thanks!! :D

However...whenever I'm listening (at work) and connect the phone to my computer (via USB), Pandora stops working! In the Microsoft ActiveSync Connection Settings, I even have "allow wireless connection to device when connected to the desktop" selected, but selected or not, it still stops playing when I connect it to my computer. (I want to keep it connected so the battery stays charged).

So basically, I want to listen to Pandora thru my phone and keep it charging at the same time. (It charges as it's connected thru USB. I can't listen to Pandora thru my work computer, cuz it's blocked by a Barracuda filter.) Is it somehow reading my phone as an extra drive? If so, is there a way to turn this on and off as needed?

Any clues on how to fix this? Keep it simple, cuz I am a newbie when it comes to messing with this stuff. :o

Thanx!

(sorry if this question has been posted before...I couldn't find anything on it...)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Pete_S:
I've been searching for a long time (years) for a wm app similar to something I had on an old Nokia which let me see which cell I'm connected to, it's strength, and the capability to give cells friendly names. Also a realtime updated graph showing signal strength vs time.

At last the app "Nicetrack" works properly and someone also kindly modded it for vga resolution.

http://forum.ppcwarez.org/viewtopic.php?f=65&t=107293

The direct download link for the vga version:

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5UPD6I78

No instal needed, just dump the exe somewhere, create a shortcut in "\windows\start menu\programs" and run it.

Tested on my TD2 with wm6.1

*All credit to the Nicetrack developer and the guy who changed the source code for vga*
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] miro666:
Fied Test inside Windows folder is the best. No one third apps...

Regards
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Pete_S:
Fieldtest.exe is useful for a quick check of cell id and signal strength (most of the other info doesn't mean anything to me) and, of course, it's a "native" app.

But Nicetrack does so much more. It's much easier to assess signal strength when you can see it as a bar which updates at 5sec intervals (default is 20sec but can be changed) rather than a number. Being able to give cells names is also vital unless you're good at remembering cell id numbers. Together with the moving history graph you can build up a nice picture of your local coverage.

If that's what you want to do... (I obviously have too much time on my hands)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] jamesmccoy901:
The mega link has been siezed...is there somewhere else to download Nicetrack?
