who said that? a rep, a clerk, a tech, who? okay, even if it was someone with "inside info" they would be one of a thousand ive been reading on these boards for months saying when it was coming. It was supposed to be december, then late december, then early january and it just keeps on going up until this pitiful thread. it will come when it comes and the only official date i will go by is the one verizon and/or htc establish.
[Droid Eris General] lbuch79:
Doesn't the incredible come out tomorrow? Thats the only reason I thought it MIGHT.
[Droid Eris General] gzu36c:
I will guarantee the update will not come out tomorrow...
[Droid Eris General] WalkingTaco:
and what if it doesnt? nothing. just another misinformed youth on the internets of today.
[Droid Eris General] gzu36c:
I'm misinformed?
[Droid Eris General] seanmcd72:
make it stop! :(
[Droid Eris General] WalkingTaco:
It would seem that way unless you can explain yourself or your sources. If you're right i'll eat my words but I'm 99.99999998% sure you're full of ****, or like I said, misinformed. It's not an attack on your personally, you're just the umpteenth person I've seen claiming the exact same thing.

Cheerio
[Droid Eris General] gzu36c:
I'm not taking this personally, because I believe you just may have misread my post.

I said I would guarantee that the update is NOT coming out tomorrow.

So you are saying you are 99.9999999% sure it is?
[Droid Eris General] WalkingTaco:
I completely apologize, you are right. I did misread and am a little embarrassed. You are right though sir, it will not be out tomorrow.
[Droid Eris General] gzu36c:
No need to apologize. Simple misread. Happens to all of us. To be honest, I went and re read my post 10 times to make sure I didn't make the mistake, because I wouldn't put it past myself.
[Droid Eris General] seanmcd72:
/facepalm

This thread is on the failboat down the 2.1 River!
[Droid Eris General] JoeyRev:
from somewhere i read,it was said we werent goin to get the update due to the release of the HTC Incredible taking over and being the newest with 2.1..dont remember where i read it.but patiently we are waiting for this release,hope it does or at least tell us if/and if its goin to come out or not for our phones,would be nice;)
[Droid Eris General] TDianna:
Well it's the 29th @10:30 and still nothing! LOL.......Not gonna hold my breath!

:mad::eek:
[Droid Eris General] DjCalvin:
They never release updates on thursday.. who's smoking crack?

and We will NEVER get the 2.1 release, VZ has better things to support with the incredible.

Sad but true, I would love to be wrong.
[Droid Eris General] drew630:
I think you are mistaken. Why would they not release 2.1? Its on HTC to come up with the update, Verizon just tests it before they release it. Supposedly HTC is releasing 2.1 for the Hero on sprint this month which is an older phone. I think they will upgrade us, as promised, when its ready. VZ always updated older Blackberry's when the new OS updates came out even if the phone was old and replaced. I think DjCalvin is just speculating.
[Droid Eris General] DjCalvin:
Drew630: we are ALL just Speculating.. nobody but VZ knows wth is going on with the release. HTC builds the rom, Sends it to VZ, VZ tests and tweaks, releases it to the userbase. Consider VZ the black cloud of engineering.

Here's my thinking:

VZ oficially said that we would get 2.x in the 1st quarter of 2010 (back in decemeber of 2009.. or was it late november.. never the less)

1st quarter came and went with Nothing from verizon, not a peep.. (OFFICIAL.. not a tech's word, or 1st level support's scripted response)

Verizon still hasn't officially said "woops, we missed 1st Q.. maybe 2nd Q" Had they said that, I can pretty much say that the eris community would be happy.. because we are hearing Something.

I love my Eris, I hate the lack of anything from VZ.

Yes you could say no news is good news.. sure.. I'd love an official 2.X anytime soon.. But I'd rather be sugar talked before screwing me over.
[Droid Eris General] false_apology:
If you haven't seen yet, another leaked 2.1 ROM has surfaced over at Android Forums, different from the first two (non-root) leaks.

Lots of bug fixes, maybe this will be the one that is released over the air soon!
[Droid Eris General] DjCalvin:
Loading up the rooted one now :)

woohoo!

I'd like to know when this one was compiled.
[Droid Eris General] T.C.P:
let us know when u load it up
[Droid Eris General] DjCalvin:
Been running it or a day. rock solid. Working on my own rom using it as the base.
[Droid Eris General] TDianna:
2.1 Leak NUMBER 3!

Been up and running all day here...so far...so good! Very fast!:D

EDIT: Nevermind....issues with bluetooth...
[Droid Eris General] dbnaruto:
I don't think that VZ is going to release the OTA 2.1 and they are trying to be very quite about it. And I also think someone (if not everyone) at HTC is sympathetic to us and has been leaking update builds that will never actually get out. This is just my speculation based on VZ's marketing practices, the release of the Incredible and rumor. And to me this is a little saddening : /
[Droid Eris General] synaptyc:
lol... this is silly IMO.

HTC could care less about a community of Eris users. They sold the Eris form-factor eons ago and have moved on to other devices. You must remember, HTC has anywhere between 20-50 devices in the works at all times. They don't have time to ponder on the end user of a single device beyond its release. If updates fit within the "build structure" of a certain generation of devices, then the updates come to fruition. If not, then it is up to the independent development community. To my understanding, Android was built with a minimum hardware specification list. Every Android device must fit this criteria and currently does.

Now, Verizon is in the same boat with update obligation. There really is none beyond the device's release. If I bought a device with Android 1.5 installed that is all I am entitled to no matter what a customer service rep says. They just want to make the sale and retain customers.

I could ramble on and on about who is guaranteed what from whom... but that would probably fall on deaf ears and waste everyones time.

Verizon WILL release the 2.1 update to the Eris. No doubt about it. They have many revisions internally and leaked. When? Tomorrow for sure. (i actually have no freakin clue, but everyone else is saying "Tomorrow" so i will too! :rolleyes: )

No time left to blab on this matter... I have to refresh the forum pages of 5 Android sites to see if the official OTA 2.1 update has been released!!! :D

~have a great day!~
[Droid Eris General] TDianna:
I was on the phone with a tech from HTC yesterday and he told me that he does not when it's being released.......who knows...
[Droid Eris General] Shahaed:
just quit praying and root you goddamn phone,

And when the OTA update comes, then go to it.
[Droid Eris General] gasolinev8:
If anyone's still interested, Verizon has a "Software Update: DROID Eris by HTC Coming Soon!" notice posted on Eris support site with a .pdf listing enhancements. Looks like the same software as V3.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] XITruthiX:
Use RealVNC, it pwns remote desk
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Jay321:
where do you get realvnc from
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] garfchong:
where can i download realnvc?

is it a freeware??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Clinch:
I too have been trying to figure this out. What I found out is that for remote desktop, you need to have windows vista/7 Professional. Windows Vista Home will not allow you to have your computer controlled from your phone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] XITruthiX:
Yes its freeware

This is the link to the viewer and server for your PC

http://www.realvnc.com/cgi-bin/download.cgi

Now I must say im using XP, I HAVE VNC'd into vista and win7 PCs using the view on my tp2. However on one machine running Win7 I couldnt get the PC to recognize the server app. As of right now I simply use the wifirouter on my tp2, connect to its network and use the assigned IP to log in. RealVNC also allows WAP logins but I havent messed with it simply because I dont really need to lol.

In any case, here's the .cab for our phone attached.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sirphunkee:
I believe the reason for this is that the "Home" editions of Vista and 7 don't let you join a domian (that's one of the things M$ wants you to upgrade for), which as I understand it is necessary for a remote desktop connection.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] MooGoo:
You kidding me? VNC is a mess compared to Remote Desktop.

With RD, you get the closest thing possible to having a full fledged desktop computer on your phone. And it is pretty damn close.

Honestly when I'm at home and my phone is connected to the wifi network, more often than not I prefer to use it as a mere dummy terminal interface to my main computer.

Remote Desktop + any desktop web browser absolutely destroys every mobile browser ever created. Entire web pages load instantly and somehow look exactly like they would on a regular computer! Hell, you even get Flash support (a bit choppy but it's something).

And the Rhodiums screen resolution gives more than enough room for most web pages to render without the need to zoom out.

Remote Desktop even allows you to easily transfer files wirelessly between your phone and computer by mapping a drive on it that links to your phones file system.

The only thing I'd say against it is that it can be difficult to click on small targets even with the stylus.

I do sympathize with users who run a Windows version without the Remote Desktop Service built in. RDP is probably one of the very few good reasons to get Pro or above versions of Windows.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] ah23:
Windows Vista Home edition does not include Windows Remote Desktop therefore quite obviously you cannot connect to your laptop via your phone, gotta get professional or ultimate for that.

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/...ther-computer-using-Remote-Desktop-Connection

Read "notes"

but, :D of course there are hacks to make it work fine lol it is included in service pack 1 but is not "labeled" try this

Steps to Add Remote Desktop to Vista Home Premium:

1. Download termsrv.zip here

2. Extract Termsrv.zip to a temp directory

3. Start “Command Prompt” in Administrator mode (right click Run As Administrator) it in in Start Menu, All Programs, Accessories, just right click on it

4. Run the corresponding batch file for your Vista edition (if you extracted it to your desktop then it will be C:\Users\[enter user name]\Desktop\Premium

5. Allow TCP Port 3389 on Windows Firewall or any other firewall product if needed

6. Done

(just tested on Windows Vista Home Premium and it worked fine)

(dont forget to reboot)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] MooGoo:
I guess a good place to start would be to try pinging the computer you want to connect to. You can do that with dotFreds Task Manager. You are trying to connect on a LAN correct?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] dantegl36:
I messed around with this earlier and couldnt get it to work. My pc is running windows 7 ultimate 64bit edition. I'm almost positive I had all the settings correct but I was trying to connect to my pc which was connected wirelessly to the router. Would this not work? If not how would one go abouts doing this without a lan connection? I'd love to get this baby working and am willing to be a guinea pig so that hopefully we can get a procedure together for all others :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] mokoloko:
after trying remote desktop mobile to make it work i just give up!!!

try this go to www.logmein.com make a free account download logmein software to you laptop install the free softwares !

install cab to tp2

use the two files below.

1. Install XDA first, reboot,

2. install IEtoggle, open IEtoggle, switch IE to PIE,

3.start up IE and sign into logmein.

This worked for me. the only thing is not working is the keyboard

keyboard problems go here !! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=444641 it might work !
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] MooGoo:
I routinely use the RDP client on my phone to connect to my desktop computer over wifi LAN. Although my computer is hardwired to the network.

Are you able to remote desktop to your pc with another computer?

Did you select the "Allow connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop" option in the System Properties:Remote dialog?

Could there be some 3rd party firewall software you are running that might be blocking the RDP port?

Also, I've found that when having network issues especially involving wifi, often reseting your router to its default settings, and if necessary upgrading the firmware can help.

Since about mid march, my texts never show up in the Sense text screen. I still get the little number on the tab, but when I slide to the tab, the screen in sense still shows a message from March. If I go to all messages, it's there, but I used to like being able to see it in Sense.

I did play around with turning Sense off for a while and using Mobile Shell, but I'm back to Sense. I'm not sure if it stopped working around that time or not, because I don't get that many texts :)

Any way to get it going again?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
There's a registry tweek which you can search for in the forums.. just search random things like "text notification" or "text bubble" I dont know. I know it does exist that turns the message bubble on and off. I cant imagine HOW it got turned off in the first place though.

You may just want to try a hard reset.. Back up all your contacts first though :P
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] youngWMuser:

[Desire General] PeteW:
My Desire seems to want me to really celebrate my friends birthdays!

I am syncing my contacts and calendar items from my PC. This includes all my contacts birthdays. I am using Outlook (2007) but no Exchange.

In many cases, I have between 5 and 10 duplicated birthday items in the calendar for the same person. However, when I look on the PC, there is only 1.

Looking on the phone under Calendar>Menu>Settings>More>Calendars, there are 3 calendars listed - My Calendar (no idea what that is?), one called my name (which appears to contain the items I have added on the phone) and PC Sync. The PC Sync is the one which generates the multiple entries, because if I untick this, all the multiple entries disappear.

I suspect the problem is to do with a combination of syncing and multiple calendars (although to my knowledge I only have one calendar on the PC).

Debating just removing the lot and starting again! Not ideal!

Any thoughts on how to rectify this problem?
[Desire General] PeteW:
Noone else?

I take it noone else is seeing this problem?

If I scrap syncing to Outlook Calendar, does Desire <-> Google Calendar work ok?
[Desire General] Bandare:
I don't have exchange at all but have found the google calender to be excellent so far. If you want more specific options for an event, you get more on the web page than in the android options. However, it's synced fine and works very well so far for me.

I'm sure that it's a simple options issue being the reason you're getting loads of birthday entries but I don't know how to help on that.

What I do like about the google calender is that I can select which calenders I want to show on my phone and which I don't. Also I have a little call tracker app that posts all my calls and missed calls in a separate calender online... works great.
[Desire General] Mark One:
what's that tracker app called? Sounds useful - in app store?
[Desire General] localh0rst:
Mark One: I use CallTrak, pretty good ...

and you might also want "SMS Backup", the same for SMS ...
[Desire General] Mark One:
Thanks - looks great. Dumb question (android noob) - how do you set it up to sync with another calendar. I have created a new calendar on the same google account but it doesn't show up as an option in CallTrak - I can only see my main calendar or UK Holidays.

Thanks, M1
[Desire General] Mark One:
No worries - I didn't leave enough time (like half an hour!) for the new Gmail calendar I created to sync with the phone.

Now working as it should. Thanks.

nice/fast/stable

It's running nice/fast/stable on my gf's hd2, but it looks a bit dated once you've tried some of the 6.5.3 roms. Are Microsoft not releasing 6.5.3 to HTC or something? It's really strange that they don't seem to want to promote advances in the OS when android and the like are getting over the air updates to their phones. Little things like the documents tab and the eReader tab from 6.5.3 (plus the fact it's just that little bit more finger friendly) make it all a bit more exciting to show off.

Gotta love my HD2 though :D Is it true you can't even change the background picture on an iPhone? :eek:
[HD2 General] MalekoUK:
There no point now with the upcomming Windows Phone 7

There's a new *PROPER* CyanogenMod release out for the 1.2 that includes exactly what you're asking for. It's in this forum, and consistently in the top 20 most recently updated. All you need to do is click...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] kbeezie:
This one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=671122

But you can't just patch it onto any rom, you have to make sure you're using the official Cyanogenmod 4.2.15.1 ROM before you can flash that patch onto it. (see the second post of that thread above). But once you do that you'll have full hardware capabilities as well as the custom kernel features CM offers (Such as wifi and usb tethering, though I would use USB tethering as Wifi drains the battery even if you got it plugged in).

[Droid Incredible General] TheGreatNanners:
I've managed to get the Incredible to install fine under Windows 7, but the ADB wont' install for me under Windows XP. Has anyone else had this issue, or am I just that unlucky today?
[Droid Incredible General] TheGreatNanners:
A fix

Hey I managed to get it working here is how:

Go to the location of your ADB USB driver which you can find in your_sdk_path\usb_driver. (ex. C:\Program Files\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver)

Open up: android_winusb.inf.

Now if your on a 32 bit install of XP scroll down to the section labled [Google.NTx86], if you're on a 64-bit system scroll down to the [Google.NTamd64] section. In that that section paste in:

; HTC Incredible

%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_0BB4&PID_0C9E&MI_01

;

Now save the file.

Now if you plugin in the device and select that directory to install the USB driver from to install it should work. Finally go to your_sdk_path\tools. (ex. C:\Program Files\android-sdk-windows\tools) and run adb kill-server, and then adb start-server. When the server has started run adb devices and your incredible should show up.
