Hello

Anyone experienced with such transmitter?

http://www.blueunplugged.com/p.aspx?p=135842

Will it works on wm 6.5? does it require some software installation or setup on my HTC Mega?

Are there any good cheap replacement you can recommend me? I would like to have charger for my HTC and be able to listen music from htc's windows media player via card audio

thanks in advance
[General Accessories] Rudegar:
think they are a bit confused

htc devices don't use miniUSB connectors

they use extUSB which is miniUSB plus audio pins

if it's extUSB then it will work with anything which send audio over the audio pins

a phone a stereo a guitar

it just receive audio and makes the audio into fm radio no software or operating system requirement
[General Accessories] MusX:
extUSB is compatible with mini USB I think so if it works on mini USB so should works on extUSB too, right?
[General Accessories] Rudegar:
mini usb is a purely digital serial interface which a pda require usbHost support to use

most don't support that and that mean they can only be used by other usbHosts like a pc

extUSB is normal miniUSB but with analog audio connectors on the other side

extUSB cables work with miniUSB conntors and the other way around

but if the fm transmitter just use the audio part then connecting it to a device which have pure miniUSB it would not work

like my belkin fm transmitter just have a 3.5mm minijack and will transmit any audio which is feed it

so if you have a miniUSB connector and not a extUSB and the fm transmitter require extUSB you can't use it

unless your device support USBHost and you get drivers for the device

it should be in the spcs of the device if that is the case
[General Accessories] MusX:
I saw transmitters like that but I would like to have charger with transmitter together :D

My HTC Desire has a serious issue with battery life. Although I shut down most programs and connections, the battery lasts about 3 hours only. Also I have noticed that the phone gets quite hot on the back by the micro SD card. Do you think that my phone is faulty?

I posted the same question on,

http://www.htcdesireforum.com/htc-desire-troubleshooting/desire-overheating/

but not many inputs, does anyone else got the same issue?
[Desire General] supasye:
mmmm 3 hours? i think its faultly.. my one last more or less a day with normal usage. gets warm when i use it a lot.

There are many tips in this thread and how to identify which application is using the most battery, and which are causing the device not to sleep correctly. Its a long thread, but worth the read.
[Desire General] Whiterin:
If it is only lasting three hours no matter what you do, and it's getting THAT hot, then yeah... I would say there is an issue. Maybe it is shorting out somewhere. I would take it back if I were you. It can have poor battery life under VERY heavy use, but that's still pretty extreme... and I have never seen my battery get above 39c.
[Desire General] cbanbury:
I had this last night, but only while I was charging the phone. I pulled the battery & it was around the microSD that was hottest. Took it out & replaced n rebooted...haven't had any problems since.

Doub't the microSD caused the problem but might be worth a try. Either that or when I rebooted I didn't start the app that caused the overheating.

Does it overheat if you just do nothing with it when u reboot?
[Desire General] coolfx35:
So far it doesn't happen, I will keep you guys posted.

thanks for the help.

Hot Battery

I received my HTC on Tues night and within half an hour the palm of my hand was burning inside and yet still not healed (Thurs AM). P10 of the safety guide says this is nonionizng radiation (sounds unhealthy). I believe that the aerial is just beside the SIM and card slot and holding this next to your palm is warned against in the manual. Bit strange since that is how you would hold a PDA. However, I informed my service provider (Three) and they said it must be a fault so are replacing (with new apparently). Slighlty concerning however I will reserve the option to refund until I see the new handset. I might add that I have HTC's XDA Guide for bus. and that battery also gets very hot, but not as quick! Why put an aerial next to a battery, the combination of the two, I beleive is casuing heat issues.
[Desire General] StrongOneX:
my phone gets extremely hot ! sometimes up to 56 degree C !! and suddenly it reboots!
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
56c?! That's probably the highest I've heard of? What are you doing when it gets that hot, charging?
[Desire General] StrongOneX:
My phone was charging, WiFi was ON and I was browsering the internet, then i watched a movie. suddenly it started to smell like pommes frites. The phone was lying on a sleeping bag ( which is air tight and works like a heat shield ) and seriously it almost went flame on! lol
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
I would seriously reconsider your usage when charging. The highest mine has gotten was 40c. Just take into account that the bottom of your screen will also get near that temp, so be very careful :)
[Desire General] berre:
reached today 49,5 °C by simply navigating and charging via my car-charger at the same time... battery-status showed status "overheated" :confused:

is this normal?!

[Desire General] GANJDROID:
Erm, no. :p

I'd consider mine overheated if it gets over 35c.
[Desire General] wickedpenguin:
Wow, thats hot. Farrr too hot
[Desire General] Harnec:
highest I've seen is 38°C, I believe above 45 is extremely hot :)
[Desire General] desi_jockey:
I've had to send mine back to HTC for "stress testing" as mine can't even get past 33°C without going into a reboot loop :(. It gets that hot just with some light use of GPS + Maps or Mobile Internet + Browsing.

Hopefully they at least replace the MoBo or possibly even the whole phone :D doubtful though...
[Desire General] RaptorRVL:
hehe, my active holder in the car is in such a place I aim the vent/blower at the back of the Desire. No overheating while navigating with the airco on! :D

But I guess having something this fast (1ghz) in such a small package which uses quite some power as well means it's going to be hot real fast.

Although I don't find the Desire -that- much warmer/hotter than some of the other phones I've owned.

I guess when your Desire gets really hot (over 40C-45C or something) you can always give HTC or the warranty service a call. Perhaps when some parts don't sit properly on the cpu (something like a cooling frame or whatever), temperatures will rise a lot. And might even cause the phone to reboot.
[Desire General] Rambo87:
Hi, I had similar problems that is very evident when i started playing games. I sent back to HTC 3 times before they finally replaced my mobo. I suggest you guys do the same
[Desire General] rasmith3530:
To the OP... Are you running with WiFi turned on? I believe that this is what caused my phone to get hot as I was driving down the highway. I pulled the phone out of its pouch and it felt quite warm. It had shut down as well. I pulled the battery, let things cool down for five minutes, then put it back together and booted up. I went right in and turned off WiFi, and everything was cool after that.

I believe that the WiFi chip was trying to hunt down an AP and the CPU ran amok, causing a lot of heat, which shut the phone down.
[Desire General] jpwjpw123:
When actively using the GPS, the phone does get very hot. It's the same when using some car chargers, but I have no idea why.

Mine doesn't get hot at all using the mains charger.
[Desire General] bigsee:
UP! ;)

Today I started the Google Maps on a windy, cool place (about 2-4 C), I powered on the GPS and after 10 mins I closed Maps, and took my phone to my pocket. About 10-15 mins I wanted to see what the time is and I noticed that the Desire is overheated, abnormally warm, it was about 35-38 C... OMG... I saw the GPS icon in the notification area showing it is ON... than I closed Maps, and the icon disappeared the phone cooled back to normal.

Is there any chance that GPS is overheated the phone or there are other mysterious things... I dunno...

//sorre for the poor english...//

Hi guys,

I am using Opera mobile 10.00 . WM 6.5 & SPB Mobile Shell 3.5, ROM by Don Salari (thx :-) )

After I do the sync (mass storage), Diamond is ok and working but I cannot start(use) Opera at all, clicking on the Opera icon does nothing, dead.

After disconnecting and soft reset it is OK till I try to sync again.

Opera is installed on Internal storage - can this be the cause as internal storage is not visible on the phone after syncing like a mass storage ?

Thanks for advices ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] stephan1:
try this:

uninstall opera, then sync and reinstall it. maybe this works... or you can go to the data explorer and then start it manually

[Desire General] Digital_Apoc:
Hi Guys,

I have been following this forum for years, but have never had the need to post til now.

Coming from a G1, I've just made the transition to a glorious Desire on a Orange UK 'Panther' tariff, from Phones4u.

One of the highlights of the tariff is fee access to their Orange Maps app (supposively pre installed), which I'm told is a semi-decent sat-nav software. But I found no reference to it, or any other pre-installed Orange crap on my phone. After spending over 30 mins on the phone with an strong indian accented Orange Rep named 'Ricky' (suprisingly better informed then the usual monkeys*), it seems I was sold a generic Desire phone from Phone4u with none of Orange's pre-installed crap....YESSS!!!

Here is the issue, it seems you cannot get access to the Orange Maps app from a non-orange branded phone. More specifically you can not access h**p://orangeworld.co.uk which has links to download it from a generic phone. Even though i'm paying for the service as part of tariff.... frekkin Toasters:mad:!!!**

In my determination to stick it to the man, I have found what may be a solution, but do not know how to apply it to the Desire. The following thread with a non-obvious title: "How to install Orange Maps on non Orange Firmware" (google it, can't hyperlink it, as I'm a new poster), has a solution for a Samsung phone and I'm wondering if I could get it to work on the desire:

what is a uAgent and how do I change it on the Android OS? Will it even fix my issue?

Whilst the maps is a feature I want, I'm not desperate enough to cancel my contract => goto new contract with Orange phone with Orange ROM. So It'd be great if someone could help.

Many Thanks,

Digital_Apoc

Update: Ok so it seems I can't access orangeworld.co.uk via WiFi on my phone but CAN over 3g if I switch off the WiFi??? Still going the the maps page gives me "Sorry byt Orange Maps will not work on your handset...." though the desire is on the support list...

I had that installed for around a day before I flashed my desire with the generic Rom to get rid of all the orange cr4p. If I remember it looked just like google maps which is free unless someone can tell me differently.
[Desire General] JayceAndTheNews:
I tried to set it up, as it was free, on my Orange branded handset. I kept getting an error about not being able to set it up correctly; this is quite common on this phone it seems. The app itself was installed but the maps would not download/configure correctly.

I rang tech support for another issue and they told me that the phone is listed as not compatible with Orange maps, god knows why it comes installed on their ROM. So until they either update the program (or more likely enabled a flag saying the Desire can use Orange maps) we probably won't be able to download it. That said you might be able to get the apk from somewhere? May just be tech support were lying/drunk

I flashed my handset with a generic ROM to get rid of all the Orange garbage anyway and now I can't even re-install the app itself using the link from Orangeworld (You can text 'Orange Maps' to 247).

I seem to only be able to access the orangeworld portal using a gprs/edge connection, it doesn't like umts it seems. Maybe someone with it stilll installed could try setting it up over a 2g data connection?

Sorry I can't be of more help, good luck =D
[Desire General] SamE:
I used it when I first got my phone but it was pretty rubbish to say the least, google maps navigation is a much better product.
[Desire General] bedeabc:
With Google maps navigation available, what's the point in sticking with Orange Maps providing you don't download more than your FUP permits.

I hate what Orange have done to this phone. The salesman on the phone even lied to me saying that they were using a generic ROM.
[Desire General] i.a.wright:
Are you sure you can't visit h**p://orangeworld.co.uk on a generic rom? Make sure you go via the Orange APN and not through a wireless network as that is not allowed.
[Desire General] oursoul:
I'm a bit confused by this.

My Orange Desire (I'm on panther) once charged first time, I tried to connected straight to the net and the phone seeked the settings and worked without any intervention. In fact I think it did it right at the beginning when gmail wanted to synch.

A few hours later I debranded, and upon reboot.. the same thing, was all automatic.

yes this ^

why do you need to go to orangeworld anyway? there's nothing of any value there
[Desire General] chandalf:
Orange Maps

You don't say but I assume yo're in the UK? FWIW I tried the Orange App and it wasn't a patch on the updated Google Maps with Navigation. It was sloooow and poor definition. So IMHO, forget it!

The commets about only connecting to Orange World through the 3G I can also confirm, but I have no idea why they'd want to do that...?

No the point of this topic is to show that my problem has nothing to do with the wrong software settings, nothing to do with me dropping the phone onto the flour or drowning it in a drink. IT IS really a badly designed hardware and if it is badly designed you'll recall this topic soon : )

Neither of the above quotes show you are serious about trying to resolve any issues. They show that you are childish.

It's a pity that you had a faulty handset, you can either get over the fact that it was faulty, and you have your money back. Or you can become bitter and try to poison everyone else against them.

No device or product has a 100% fault-less history. Things happen, faults happen, defects happen. It doesn't make a product bad or useless. Your point has been made, there is no reason to continue posting about the same issue over and over. If you dislike the phone, that's fine... all you're doing posting about the same issue continually is wasting your time, and everyone else's time.
