[HD2 Accessories] Phenomenon:
Just wondering, but I remember reading something like that the TouchPro 2 or one the HTC devices that also had Navipanel on carkit found a cheap way to use a normal car kit that would activate navipanel when placed onto it. Has anyone been able to come up with something like that for the HD2? Something homemade? The htc carkit for it costs almost 90 dollars so I'm hoping to find a cheaper one instead.

PS I don't want a solution to start Navipanel. I know about the /windows folder. I just want to know a carkit method to start navipanel.

I cannot find the SRS WOW icon in the file explorer to edit it using any icon editing tools. Can anyone tell me how/where to find it? I see it in the start menu, but I cannot find it with File Exporer, CSMI, etc.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] obalia73:
Easy way to fix it!

Most easy way to fix it is to just move the icon to another place in your setting page! after that you will be able to change the program.

that meens your icon changer program can find it!

By the way i am using JWMD Icon Changer.

Regards Obalia73
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Matthes42:
The icon is embedded in the *.exe file
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] obalia73:
icon imbedded in exe file

even the icon is embedded in the exe file you can still change it!

that is what i have done!

Hum... the SRS WOW icon doesn't show anywhere in my device (except in Settings menu), even in the JWMD I cannot see it...

Any suggestions here!?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] obalia73:
Answer

You can't move it from settings but you canb shange the icon if you like by moving it to another place on the settings page.

Sorry if it was not the answer you wanted

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] TheInVisibleGoD:
Oh... I didn't know that we actually can move them inside the menu... :P

I already changed the icon with JWMD, but now can I add it to a quicklink? It doesn't show in the programs list...

Thanks mate ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] anhphe076:
Copy SRS WOW.lnk in windows\... past shutcut in Start menu. Rename SRS WOW.lnk with other name. Use JWMD change icon! Add quicklink!! Good luck!

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] baerwb:
I've tried a few locking programs for my Pure and none of them were quite what I was looking for. So I uninstalled them all and now my phone will only lock using the old 6.1 version locker (hit lock in lower left then hit lock in middle). I cannot figure out how to reenable the Windows 6.5 lock screen with the slider. I tried setting to "Windows Default" in the lock settings but that didn't work. I think something in the Registry has been flipped to off but I don't know what. Any ideas?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] baerwb:
(Update) Thought I fixed but didn't Re: Fixed...

...found a file to fix it here on the energyroms site:

NRGZ28 Stock WVGA Lockscreen.cab

Nevermind after rebooting that fix no longer works and now I can't lock at all!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
This is common when you install and uninstall 6.5 lock screens, it reverts to the 6.1.

The only fix I have found, other than the dreaded hard reset, is to install another 6.5 lock screen. I use Dusk's if that helps.

Screenshot attached, install Lockscreen first, then install AutoLock, this will enable autolock when you hit your power button.

Apple Successfully Patents Rectangle With Rounded Corners (No Joke)

Talking about brainless idiots I cant believe Apple have stooped this low, they must be very scared of the speed and the way android is developing, check this out,

by by Eric McBride frm androidpit.com

Apple Successfully Patents Rectangle With Rounded Corners (No Joke)

"You've read about the patent infringement claims, you've heard about the court wins and losses, and you’re probably pretty fed up with hearing the words “Apple” and “patent” used in the same sentence. We've always joked about Apple pretty much thinking they own the rights to anything square or rectangular shaped, as any product that has the potential to sell well is always accused by Apple of resembling an iPad. Well ladies and gentlemen, you’re not going to believe this, but the Cupertino company has just been granted a patent that might make take the funny out of those jokes: Apple has successfully patented a rectangle with rounded corners. I wish I could say this was a joke. It's not.

Patent D670,286, which can be fully viewed here, was issued to Apple yesterday, and what it clearly focuses on is the outer edge shape of what could be pretty much be anything. What’s important to note is the solid lines in the photo below, as they are what count. The lines with dashes are simply there for context, and as you can see from the one solid line defined in the photo, it’s the shape itself that is being protected. This may very well be the broadest patent I have ever seen, and how Apple managed to actually secure it from the patent office makes me question the logic of the US patent system even more than I already was before:

Apple normally submits design patents with at least one extra feature highlighted by solid lines, like a home button or the shape of a bezel. This newest patent however, focuses purely on the shapes of the edges, meaning that in a way, Apple now owns the right to any rectangular shaped tablet or phone with rounded edges.

Mindblowing.

The good news is that this patent could most likely end up being torn apart in court in the way of invalidity arguments. It covers such a broad spectrum that lawyers could probably come up with quite a few ways of invalidating it, and I seriously doubt that this patent will be of any real use as a weapon for Apple.

That being said, it wouldn’t surprise me at all to see Apple try their very best to use it unfairly against others.

What do you guys think about this? Can you believe Apple was granted this patent?"

I think I will take it one step further and patent the CIRCLE and then sue Dunlop, Goodyear, car manufacturers,CD and DVD manufacturers, for patent infringement, they will have to produce square wheels,tyres, CD's etc, lol.

I think its a joke that a company as big as Apple with supposedly intelligent people running it could come up with the absurd idea of patenting a shape. they must be scared, really scared lol
[Hero CDMA General] cytherian:
Very funny, and TRUE!! (about the photo) :good:

As for the patent. Where's that emoticon with the look of blood thirsty rage?

Apple has such deep pockets that they've bribed the US patent office. I mean, c'mon... a rounded corner rectangle? This is atrocious and outright disgraceful.

I admit that the iPhone is a great looking product and the smooth graphics are the best around. It's a very competent device. But... it is OPTIMIZED TO PRICE GOUGE THE CONSUMER. First, they made it fragile, with breakable glass on both sides that will break even if you have a protective case around it (sufficient shock will shatter the glass without direct contact). Then, they instituted the greatest memory scam ever, getting you to pay $100 for 16Gb additional memory that normally costs everyone else $12 via the use of an SD card. And the new charging connector? They could have released that with the first iPhone. But they didn't... because their product marketing people figured out that this would be another revenue point for their accessories business. So, they released it a few models later, once iPhone ownership became thoroughly entrenched, so they can make even more money.

Apple is one of the most profitable companies in the USA. There's a good reason for it, beyond the eye candy products. It's the overpriced nature of their goods. And the sheeple that buy their products don't see this at all... the fawn over all that Apple has to offer and take it up the rear to be a member of the club.

So, I won't own an iPhone. I like it, but the price is utterly ridiculous and the owner constraints super annoying. Android will be my phone OS of choice until something better comes along, which I don't foresee happening for a very long time.
[Hero CDMA General] hawkinau:
Android the unstoppable rollercoaster

I dont think anything better will be coming along in the foreseeable future, the beauty of Android is that it is open source with so many different developers working on it and always looking for improvement, it just gets better and better and its happening at a rapid rate, Apple like Microsoft are at a disadvantage in that they only use resources within their companies, yes they both have pretty good products but their success has mostly been attained through their marketing which their both very good at but things are changing.

Each year the Mobile World Congress is held to award best mobile manufacturer and best mobile device, last year HTC and Apple won these two award respectively this year however one company took both awards, and that company is Samsung.

New data released by Kantar Worldpanel ComTech has shown that Android is dominating the mobile OS market share in Australia, following similar trends throughout Europe and the US.

Android is the OS installed on 56.9 per cent of smartphones in Australia, up from 36.4 per cent at the same time last year. Apple's iOS holds on to a significant 30.5 per cent market share and Spain is the country with the greatest Android reach, with a whopping 84.1 per cent.

So I think that Android right now is an unstoppable roller-coaster and Android devices will continue to gain an increased market share in the next few years and I for one am enjoying the ride.
[Hero CDMA General] cytherian:
I agree. It's especially encouraging to see a lot of European and Asian nations embracing Android over iOS. Part of that was probably due to Apple's exclusive contract with AT&T in the beginning. People outside the USA hold onto their phones for much longer, because of the differences in phone costs and fewer restrictions to move a phone from one carrier to the next. This likely gave enough pause for Android to shore up the margin from Apple. Apple likes to have an iron grip on the iPhone, placing stiff limits in many respects. I find it deplorable that you can only use iTunes with it. iTunes is fine as a music library manager and player, but mediocre as a cellphone device manager.

Going with the "roller coaster" theme, I do see Android overtaking Apple more extensively in the future. Samsung and HTC have achieved amazingly smooth graphics and AMOLED/LCD display quality. Apple's "retina" display is slightly superior, but this won't be for long. What a lot of people overlook is one limiting factor: the human eye. For instance, look at flat screen TV's. Going from 60Hz to 120Hz is notably different. However, 240Hz? For myself, I find it presenting "too much" information. 120Hz is easier on the eyes while still providing lifelike clarity. Who needs anything better than that? This kind of clarity exists with retina display. I don't see any room to improve it. The only exception will be the "scroll out" flexible AMOLED screens. Imagine you have a moderate sized smart phone, but can pull out a larger viewing screen for when you want to visually voice chat with someone or watch a movie. I'll bet Apple will be the first to introduce this, but I hope HTC and Samsung can get some patents filed before hand so they don't get stomped over by Apple again. Like a patent for rounded rectangles... I'm still scratching my head on that one.

hey guys,

I tried to share some videos made by myselft on my N1, but, i realized that it's only possilble using a wifi network ! So, do someone knows if i can do something to share over 3G network ? I mean any software that trick my phone and make it believe that is on wifi!

Thanks anyway !

[Nexus One General] elusivepeanut:
Interestingly enough I found that I can upload any size video to youtube via 3g by using the seesmic twitter app. Run the application, and go into setup to change video sharing to youtube from yfrog. Then enter your credentials. From then on, when you record a video, click share and then seesmic. It will automatically start the seesmic app with a tweet started "http://www.youtube.com/********". Let automatic the upload continue in the background and once you check back and it is a solid link you know it's complete. You do not have to tweet the link as it's already active, simply copy the link to whatever means you which to distribute.

[Nexus One General] thepawn:
I'm not rooted, I really didn't feel like tinkering with the phone right now, but I'm kind of getting tired of Launcher2's performance and behavior since the last OTA... aside from the obvious bugs (forgetting which home screen you are on), quite often it takes FOREVER to "redraw" when I exit an app and it force closes 5-6 times a week.

Any prospects of them releasing a bug-fix patch? I really don't have time to play around with loading roms and then maintaining my own update schedule.

[Nexus One General] anstosa:
That's not a bug, it was changed on purpose in 2.1 to go the the 3rd homescreen when you press the home button. It does seem like a weird idea at first but it's actually increased my navigation speed considerably. Before I would forget which screen I was on sometimes and I would have to pause and check. Now I know which one it's going to be and I know instantly which was to swipe to get where I want to go. I think it was a good choice.
[Nexus One General] logger:
Yes it is. I suggest you check again.

From any home screen other than the 3rd one you mention, hit the apps softkey to open apps. Now press either of the home screen buttons, soft or hard and you will (as you say) get returned to home screen 3 or the middle one. This is fine and good. BUT take a look at the mini icons at the bottom of the screen.

They are supposed to show

** ** to indicate you are on screen 3.

However they will incorrectly show the screen you were on before heading off to the apps screen and not the one you are on now.

[Nexus One General] Clarkster:
I've heard of many people with that bug. I have it also. Only on the stock ROM. The background is also offset to where it would be if you were on the previous screen (the one the dots indicate), as opposed to being centered when on the middle screen.
[Nexus One General] AndyBurns:
I had that issue before I rooted and installed Enom's ROM, now I rely on noticing how far left/right my wallpaper is shifted to tell which screen I'm on, as I have the phone/browser buttons in the bottom corners instead of the dots.

I am looking for the following items.

3) Do HD2's have different battery sizes? I think the original is 1230, but I have seen some at 1350, but they weren't genuine and I am worried about my phone using a not official battery.

Also, I'd be careful of cases with magnetic closures. I had one before I changed to an Otterbox Defender case, and the one with magnetic closures seemed to affect the G-sensor of my phone -- when I rotated the phone, the screen wouldn't auto rotate. After I stopped using the case with magnetic closures, the problem went away.
