[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freco:
I paid a bunch of money to get rid of WinMo.

6.5 is stuck because of the upcoming 7.

WinMo 7 sucks. Everyday at mobile news sites I see new ugly, useless applications for it and we don't even know how exactly they will look like.

Why should someone switch to WinMo? Microsoft is loosing the game (at the moment at least).

Old WinMo software

I have one great app on my old Windows Mobile device that I would love to be able to run on Android in some kind of Windows Mobile emulator.

I would easily pay for it, but something tells me Microsoft wouldn't be so eager to let that slide!

Totally...

So happy to dump WoeMo...

I was in two minds before picking up the X10 - a lot of apps on my diamond that I didn't want to loose... Sometimes you've just got to bite the bullet and step into the uncharted waters... Sure there are some great apps that I thought I couldn't do without, but I'm learning to cope, and there are a number of other apps which are just as good, if not better...

If anything, getting away from the god awful WoeMo interface for my daily phone activities is more than any app could have done.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ddewbofh:
That won't happen, iOS is locked down tighter than a nun's "private parts". :)

Hacking Mac OS X to run on white-box PC:s wouldn't have happened if Apple hadn't been so relaxed on the hardware security of the devkits. The devkits were standard PC:s, there were no custom parts at all. The people behind the crack made an awesome job and it took tons of work but in the end it boiled down to "just" a kernel extension that checked the hardware. Since Mac OS X is open source it was just a matter of time and effort.

iOS is locked down to custom-made hardware and even parts that were designed specifically for Apple. That combined with the closed OS makes a port nigh-impossible, just look at how long it's taken to get Linux running on that hardware.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] consolation:
Poti-96, you seriously need to fix your sarcasm detector, it's not working at all.

Regarding osx on vanilla PC, while initially the dev kit Macs did lead to some hacks, this hasn't been true since 10.4 days. What has enabled running osx on generic PC hardware is figuring out how to pass the missing EFI information at boot time. In fact, osx is not locked down at all, it's just not compatible with old school BIOS. The irony is, most modern chipsets do use EFI, but for the sake of backwards compatibility, there's an old fashioned BIOS compatibility layer exposed to the system. It's weird that EFI isn't becoming the default as both vista and 7 support it iirc. Do we really need to fck around with BIOS for the sake of running XP?

Partly true, but have you forgotten about things like DSMOS.kext? There's quite a lot more going on than just EFI.

I agree - Android is interesting - but on the SE X10 it sort of sucks; and I've been a Linux guy since 96. I need a phone that syncs with outlook and supports a HID bluetooth keyboard. With WM I can open the keyboard (igo stowaway) and it just works. Syncing with outlook just works. Unfortunately, I have this X10... and it just sits in my desk drawer because even Android 2.1 is sort of useless.

Well first off im new to the HTC Leo forum so... hi!

Ok I just got a HTC HD2 and I was wondering, how do you back up the contacts and their facebook links? Only I'm installing a new rom each day trying to find the best one for me which means wiping the phone and its getting a little annoying that I have to keep re-linking the facebook links.
[HD2 General] Quinny:
i use microsoft office outlook through active sync to back up my contacts, it also saves there facebook links so when you log in through data services in setting their details and facebook profile pic are assigned to your contacts.

quinny
[HD2 General] Gaz25:
ah ok, and if you don't have office?
[HD2 General] Elcs:
Microsoft MyPhone (available through Windows Marketplace) also stores Facebook link information when using it to back up.

This service however is an online service and would require use of your phones data connection to upload the information to Microsoft on a regular basis or WiFi/hooked up to PC to do a manual update of the data.
[HD2 General] Gaz25:
not to worry. Microsoft my phone does the trick just fine

EDIT: lol Elcs you must have posted at the same time as I did. Thanks anyway :D
[HD2 General] henkin:
Hi everybody.

I'm searching exactly the same thing. How can we backup the links between the facebook contacts and the HTC contacts.

I'm not only speaking about the pic, but the real link to the facebook account.

Microsoft My Phone is certainly doing that, but I would like to have an offline solution.

I'm using PIM backup which is able to save WinMo contacts, but it didn't include the facebook account links.

I have tried to save the folder MyDevice/Windows/FBContacts but apparently it's storing only the pics and not the links to the account.

It means that when I restoring this folder, the FB account links are not restored.

Anyone has an idea?

Thanks in advance :)
[HD2 General] Mister B:
I believe iMobileTools Contacts backup saves the links for facebook & HTC contacts that HTC add to contact via tagged code in contact notes.

Try it: http://www.imobiletool.com/download/imobiletool-contacts-backup.zip

Only contct backup progam I found that backs up contact photos & ringtones & restores them correctly plus supports unicode correctly.

You may also find SPB backup handy for saving & restoring contacts, mail accounts ect.

Hi All,

I have an MDA3 and recently upgraded it to wm 6.5 21630 by Sun-Dream, I now have no service for the phone.

I have been reading here on the forum to put it back to 2003 and change the phone settings.

It wont downgrade back to 2003, i can flash it all ok, it restarts, set the stylus screen then when it says click the screen to start using it freezes, I have tired 3 different roms even the official one from T-Mobile.

It will go back to wm 6.1 or 6.5 no problems, all i need is my phone back.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Mark.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] egzthunder1:
Are you performing a hard reset after flash?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Chef_Tony:
also you should make sure to remove the sim and sd card from the device for the up- and downgrading process, as it can mess up your radio and stop you from being able to make calls. if a hard reset does not help, you should try down- and re-upgrading your radio.

some users also reported that the sim card can actually be harmed during the upgrade process. give the card a try in another phone. if it doesn't work anymore, that could also be the issue. most carriers replace broken sim cards for free.

but you should try out the different methods from easy (hard reset) to the most drastic, which would be a new sim. also, you might want to compare your upgrade process to the one in my tutorials. if you did anything different, that could have caused this problem.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cephasara:
Simply as the title suggests, why does it seem every rom of vanilla 2.0 & 2.1 now fail to have such smooth transitioning between home screens as versions 1.5 & 1.6 did?

This question spans across other android devices too. For instance, when I first saw the motorola droid I was a little shocked to see it switch home screens with so much more lag compared to my old G1 running 1.6. Honestly, I'd figure something as simple as that would be somewhat of a selling point to some simple minded consumers and it really confuses me as to why Google kind of dropped it--at least in terms of combating Apple products it seems like Google kind of gave up.

I have just been assuming it was for battery conservation reasons, if so, is there a way to disable this or somehow simply make it smoother in 2.0 & 2.1 like before?

Thanks for any reply. Sorry for any complete unbearable ignorance I'm nothing more than a noob at some of these things still.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jubeh:
The background in android 2.x is now handled by a different applet, before it was part of the Launcher it self (it still is, just a different part of the Launcher rather than both being under the same window manager).

It sucks, specially on the G1. I've never seen a 2.x rom (other than my own) where the flicking from screen to screen is smooth, so maybe retrofitting the old launcher to 2.x would be idea for those not sold into the live wallpapers thing (or maybe we could make our own version of live wallpapers with animated gifs or even some fancy java)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cephasara:
Okay, thanks. Well if one wanted to push the 1.6 launcher into 2.0 or 2.1 what libs or framework would need to be copied?

Well I just answered my own question: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=645550&page=80

Except with this one you loose the eclair zoom in effect when you go into an app--I'm guessing that's part of the eclair launcher. I wonder if there's a way to implement that effect into this doughnut launcher.

Same here downgraded to 9.7, opera guys are strange in 9.7 they support pinch-zoom in ver.10 they don't...:confused:
[HD Mini Themes and Apps] akinto2006:
Actually, I find it moore convinient not having pinch-zoom on opera 10. For one thing, some pages require you to pinch zoom on specified-non-clickable areas if not, zoom gets over-done in some rare ocassions. In opera 10 you can just set the tap zoom to 100% and everytime you tap a page it zooms to where you tap. When you tap the zoom out button it zooms out. Plus the interface looks nicer. Cheers.
