Almost sold my HTC TP2 but SOMETHING told me to wait .. Problem was I was not happy with anything about it except the quality and feel ... I have been using the iphone for over a year now. got so used to that who interface. Someone said try the SPB Mobile shell .. I did .. had an old version from I don't know how many years ago .. Didn't do it for me ... then I went to see what the latest looked like .. WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT .. After than I installed the idial pad and the icontacts freeware and my phone I believe is going to pass up my iphone. I will be passing that to my son. There are a few apps that I will miss but I might find a replacement if I keep looking .. The most missed will be the program for looking at my eBay auctions and second is something called Glucose Buddy .. iphone just makes things so simple ..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] tp2thc:
gladd that u searched and did some mods and u love your phone. cuz i do to.:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Purple Drama Llama:
Hmm... why did you get the tp2 if you had an iPhone?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] theonlynickleft:
DOUBLE POST .. hmmm .. how did I do that ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] theonlynickleft:
I bought it because I like windows mobile .. I don't like paying to put music on my phone, I don't like paying for ringtones... on too many occasions I paid for something and it got lost ??? I don't know how, but whatever was just GONE and couldn't get it back... ON and ON ... I wish WinMo would react to touch a little better, more like the iphone, but it is close enough.

ALSO: I am a gadget-a-holic. I saw one that someone had and just had to have it ..

You're.gonna love it a little more...try these two cabs...

yes, I can count...got a little carried away...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] sirphunkee:
hey telegraph, I know all those cabs except one...could you give a brief description of the HTC small menus cab? I think I know what it does, but want to be sure :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] telegraph0000:
It makes the menu in file explorer all fit in one screen...stock and some roms make the menu finger friendly, where you have to scroll up and down to see the rest of the menu options.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] theonlynickleft:
At the risk of sounding like I should have my phone taken away from me and replaced with an old Nokia or Motorola .. Is there a ROM that would transform this phone into an iphone sort of ?? What I miss the most is that with the iphone there is no digging. There is an icon for settings and the rest of the icons are applications .. I like that because I feel lost every time I pick this phone up .. Yesterday I had to go somewhere and didn't want to have that, "how do I ??" look on my face so I put my sim in my iphone and left my HTC at home ..

Every Sense 2.5 rom offers you today screen with roll-up-applications-on-a-screen (specially Cookie`s amazing Home Tab + editor), plus every important notifiaction on a screen. If you don`t wanna change your rom, you can install Iphone today, it gives you exactly same screen interface like Iphoney - no digging, just taping and you getin` there.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] theonlynickleft:
Thanks for the iphone today skin info. I installed it and I am tweaking this and that .. I know windows mobile people hate hearing "I love my iphone." But I will say this .. I HATE THE FACT THAT I LOVE IT .. but I miss all the other bennys that come with owning something OTHER than the iphone .. I am now happy to have the best of both worlds.

Lately my eyes are getting older [ I AM NOT THOUGH ] and I have a hard time with windows mobile, especially making calls while driving. So don't get me wrong people .. I love Windows Mobile. I love HTC phones .. I hate Apple ANYTHING .. but I not only WANT but NEED the big icons etc that I have on my iphone .. I hope to be selling my iphone or giving it to my son if he still wants it, in the near future .. He is actually talking about getting the HTC HD2 I think ..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] lilchicano:
well i know that you can increase the text size but i myself never really did check to see if it did work since i can see but go under settings -> system -> screen. then go to the text size and adjust it from there. not sure if it would work or not but hope it does do the trick for ya :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] DeathmonkeyGTX:
You can configure SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.3's home screen to be almost a dead ringer for iPhone. I understand the thing about picking up the phone and feeling lost, but only when I'm supremely inebriated, sleepy, or trippin' pretty hard. I got SPB set up with 3 pages of quicklinks for 95% of the things I do with my phone. I like to leave the stuff that can temporarily bork the phone in a place that has to be dug out to find...

There is also an exact shell replacement that mimics the upcoming WM7.
[Click Themes and Apps] havok123:
Was feeling in a transparent mood the other day before i made the lock screen..

Note : the black settings come from a theme I hope to release soon.

INSTALLATION

**Disclaimer**

I am not responsible for your phone, or anything that happens to it. Ever.

This apk has been pulled straight from my phone, and its working fine.

(stock rom,black skin installed,clear lock screen,custom skin, rooted)

Have a Nandroid backup

Have a Goldcard

Have recovery

Backup your original apk

Notice: this apk uses images from the Skin: Black , if you do not have it installed you will now have a black notification menu. For maximum colour-compatibility install the black skin first.

Also note that I have changed the pull down tab located at the bottom of the screen shots, I felt this was more appropriate for the theme.

Instructions

push the apk to system/framework

reboot, you should now have a transparent notification screen
[Click Themes and Apps] HTCDevil:
Thank you man ;)

Can blank (transparent) part of slide be refilled with black color :D

p.s. havok, will you do a white skin? So we'll have black and white :D
[Click Themes and Apps] Ihaveatattoo:
Does this work with Gingerbread?
[Click Themes and Apps] yatindroid:
Which file you changed

Thanks
[Click Themes and Apps] havok123:
I'll make this for gingerbread, i think its called status background (or similar) inside framework res .apk

Transparent status bar

Hi havok

I tried for transparent status bar in res frame work.apk (puting transparent file ) but signing creates problem phone don't start

I have Android signer java application

may be HTC sign different

what i do ?
[Click Themes and Apps] havok123:
you can avoid having to sign the apk files again:

1. extract file you wish to edit

2. edit file

3. open apk (NOT extract) using zip manager (e.g 7zip)

4. drag edited file into the correct folder in .apk and replace

5. file should then be ready for adb push. no rezip or re sign needed
[Click Themes and Apps] yatindroid:
please edit for me

hi havok

I use 7 zip but don't work phone stuck at booting

I m uploading a file

replace it frame work.apk /res /drawable-120dpi/statusbar_background.png

please edit & upload working frame work.apk

Thanks

I want to make the notification bar transparent so my wallpaper goes to the top edge of the screen.

how do I do this? this appears to be the lockscreen?? maybe I am calling it by wrong name. running 2.2 on TP2 the white bat at the top that has the notification icons and the network battery time info.

I want to make "that" transparent. if the wallpaper does not "go" to the top then I want to "skin" it to match the wallpaper.

I can't use metamorph since that requires busybox and busybox does not work with my build.
[Click Themes and Apps] pochopsp:
use online kitchen, the instructions and the kitchen are here: http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
[Click Themes and Apps] nerys71:
Hmm First "CAN" I use this at all.

I am not running an android device "per say"

I am running a windows mobile 6.5 HTC Touch Pro 2 that has android running "ON IT" (from the SD card)

so would this even work for me?

second it says transparency of the notification bar requires Ginger 2.3 I am Froyo 2.2

if I can't make it transparent can I simply replace it with a non transparent bar (I will clip the appropriate pixels from my image and make that "chunk" the notification bar. IE simulate transparency. it will only work for one wallpaper but thats ok.

I don't see an option for this ?
[Click Themes and Apps] iambabydoll31:
Hello

Where can I find the system/framework in my Galaxy y? Does it need to be rooted? I really want to have a transparent status bar :)

And were should I put the attached data?

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Stevemann:
I used to have a control that could manually select profiles; Car, Home, Work etc. It also switched to Car automatically when the carkit was connected. Maybe it wa in WM2003 or WM5. But I can't find it in any WM6, 6.5 ROMs.

Can someone post the cab for it plz?

Thanks.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Chef_Tony:
the lack of profiles in windows mobile is annoying. any crappy 10 year old nokia phone has several customizable profiles, wm still doesn't. while i haven't thought about it in ages, i have to admit, if anybody has a nice app for that, i would use it as well, especially if it supports hardware changes like you say. different profiles for car kit, charger, BT handsfree... would be nice.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Stevemann:
That's odd that no WM had it - maybe it was bundled in an Operator customisation then (e.g. Orange or O2)...trouble is I've blown all my old ROMs away!!

Anyone up for building a neat Applet then?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] egzthunder1:
Have you all tried something like SPB Phone Suite? I think this comes with this option.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] CodeJACK:
I purchased one of these as the housing i had was getting very messy :o

http://cgi.ebay.ie/FULL-HOUSING-KEYBOARD-HTC-TyTN-II-2-P4550-P-KAISER-/180496072719?cmd=ViewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a0667800f

DONT BUY THIS KIT !!!

The item was listed as new but clearly most of the parts were used.

The biggest problem I had was with the front face plate.

There is a few gold "connectors" that have to be melted in the plastic.

I had to break these out of my old case and used a soldering iron to put them into the new faceplate.

There was also the gold screw holes! these were a real pain.

Again they needed to be broken from the old case and then gently heated with the iron until they melted into their respective hole.

Maybe this is what I should have expected but it would have been nice if they said a little fiddling was required for fitting.

The keyboard was also not as the picture is. It was a chinese keyboard so I just used my own.

All in all it worked out well and my phone looks spanking new but its not really a worthwhile mod given the cost and hastle. :rolleyes:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] byron0318:
I was also planning to buy that housing but had a second thought about the keyboard. my original keyboard is all black and doesnt have the white numpad.

thanx for the advice :)! ill try to inquire from other seller.

how about this one?

http://cgi.ebay.ph/FULL-HOUSING-KEY...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20b0bf01ef
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] pozabi:
A few days ago I received the same housing from the same vendor and is all ok. Mounting screw is settled and the exterior is not damaged.

Before ordering I contacted him and sent a picture of my phone. When he confirmed that everything (including keyboard) is identical, I ordered. I got the body and I get happy.

I think you had bad luck
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] CodeJACK:
Maybe its bad luck but eBay rules are pretty straight forward.

I was not sold what was listed in the pictured and it was not new (item had marks from use where case slides apart and also scratching.)

The keyboard was not the one in the picutes. I actually have a full black KB but wanted to go with the white panelled one in the pic.

What I got was a chinese all black KB. Useless to me.

Anyway, i got my phone rebuilt and its looks new and works great. It took a little more fiddling than I would have expected and the KB was wrong.

I left Neutral feedback for the vendor because I felt I got what I needed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] byron0318:
codejack:

sorry to say but it is really a bad luck. lets try to be careful with items like that and inquire every detail of the item we will buy. thanks for sharing pal :)

thanks for the tip. ill try to send a picture of my unit when i buy a full housing so that everything will be clear to the seller :)

Dear colleagues,

Can you send to me a link or a manual about it?

[HD2 General] Smith2001:
Evening all, just installed the Artemis 11 ROM today. Love it, very smooth however it seems that the new feature by HTC to show the notification of a sms sent that stops there until its read and deleted is annoying.

Does anyone know how to remove or at least set a 5 second auto close on it maybe?

thanks for any help

I suppose you realize that the admins on the Sprint forums know just as much as the front line tech you get when you chat or call them right?

It's still slated for first half 2010 (according to the sprint forums), but the last post on twitter said early first half 2010, which would technically give them about 10 days.

They ARE still planning to push out 2.1 to the Hero and Moment.

Now that we have the 2.1 roms will it really be that big of a deal when it comes out other then for the people on unrooted stock.
[Hero CDMA General] dirkyd3rk:
who cares about the official update i have given up on phones that sprint are responsible to update lol, sprint sucks i am seriously considering going to verizon these days, verizon has always had the best phone selection, more smart phones than any other provider out there, just so freakin expensive is the only problem :(
[Hero CDMA General] DanWalker:
I want that damn update just so I can have a ROM without the audio loss that keeps happening! I can't get away from it no matter where I go.
[Hero CDMA General] Nanan00:
Sprint is the undisputed king of dropping the ball on updates, had the Hero not been rooted before my 30 days was up I would have gone to Tmo.
[Hero CDMA General] djorijun:
I kind of care because I would like to see an Official 2.1 ROM, this leak doesn't let me send emails from exchange just reply.
[Hero CDMA General] captivate:
Your title is a little misleading...

like another member said before me, the admins did not say that. all they said was they don't know..
[Hero CDMA General] jonnythan:
No one at the BAW forums has come forward and said "this update is not happening May 7."

This is very telling because in the past, they have directly refuted most of the rumored dates.
[Hero CDMA General] Jus10o:
Im guessing you didnt scroll down and read post 9 when the ADMIN said

"I can officially (no, really) state that it is NOT going on Friday, May 7 2010.

When is it going? Sorry, no one has that information for publication.

I can confirm that we are continuing to test the 2.1 build for both Hero and Moment and we are committed to delivering the update in the first half of 2010."

IM definitely not sayin he is right or saying he is wrong.. Only showing that an admin actually did say this. Some people i guess cant read.
[Hero CDMA General] troyboytn:
Will England (Wengla03) at BAW is usually well informed on these matters and was always forthcoming with info on Sprint's last red headed stepchild (Instinct) in the past. I trust his info over any other "leak", though I do hope he is wrong.
[Hero CDMA General] Jus10o:
Its really funny over there on sprints forums.. Someone made an off topic "joke" post and everyone joined it and was just talking. One of the admins got her pantys in a bunch and actually deleted peoples post that were off topic. Yet there was no topic but joking. She locked the thread for it starting to get off topic. Even wengla the admin joined in and said something before it was locked. Its like all the admins over there are so desperate to get action and constantly delete and end threads.

And i remember going threw all the instinct updates.. They were at lease muchhh better at setting general times (within the week) of when an update would come out. If it got moved back they would come out and say, its been moved back, expect it on this date.

The hero update, Sprint has been just simply terrribblee at keeping the customers in the loop.

HUH? I was at Verizon before Sprint and I can say without a doubt that Verizon gimps their phones beyond belief, the droid being the exception.

For example...the VZ version of the HTC Touch Pro had literally half the hardware specs of the Sprint version.

VZ has a terrific network for sure but I left because of their crappy phones.
[Hero CDMA General] mbell75:
Where is THAT SPRINT GUY now? :rolleyes:
[Hero CDMA General] MagnusRagnarok:
who cares(yes, i got the sarcasm). I always check these threads for new useful, tangible info. FAIL. I havent found any yet. No offense to op. Im not looking for the update, just for htc to release their kernel source(so i check these threads as well because these threads could potentially contain 2.1, which has the kernel i am waiting for).
[Hero CDMA General] flexte:
If it weren't for the bluetooth issues and the facebook sync issues i would also be happy with the customized roms. It kinda sucks to have to turn Bt of and on twice every time i get in my car just to get the audio to work..
[Hero CDMA General] wadeheisen:
Oh, so I'm not the only one that has a problem with that. meh.

Whoever you ask about the 2.1 updates, don't ask my local Sprint store. Had a rep in there tell me last night (during the process of taking almost an hour to clean dust out of my phone) that both updates were already out. All I had to do was go to the manufacturer's web sites to download them. Had a customer in there pull up the samsung and htc sites and ask the guy to show her where so she could download them. He failed, but I had to refrain from laughing in his face. He still had my phone taken apart, after all.
[Hero CDMA General] mjb5406:
So where is their 2.1 update for the Droid Eris? That, plus Verizon is nothing but a phone whore... they grab every phone that comes out, including the Kin (which is getting terrible reviews) and can't possibly properly support all of them.

And as far as Sprint goes, it's not 100% their fault. HTC hasn't done the final release of 2.1 for the Sprint Hero; Sprint doesn't do in-depth testing. HTC integrates Sense and vendor-specific apps into Android, which is ALSO why 2.1 for the Eris isn't out yet. Sprint may have crappy PR, but they can't release it until HTC gives it to them.
[Hero CDMA General] piratedninja:
The admins on the sprint forums dont know anything and that "first half of 2010" date is complete BS since it never officially came from sprint.

Sprint has told us "early Q2" so I have no idea where this admin is coming up with that first half crap.

Early Q2 would mean BEFORE May15th.

I honestly don't see whats taking them so long, people here have cooked up 2.1 roms for months and yet sprint and htc still cant get 2.1 working.
[Hero CDMA General] jonnythan:
Yes, it did officially come from Sprint. It was posted on Sprint's official Twitter feed, the same place the Early 2Q announcements came.
[Hero CDMA General] OtisFeelgood:
Every 2.1 rom on here has one issue or another. How do you think Hero owners(non-rooted) in general would feel if they experienced issues like audio loss, bt problems, quicker than usual battery drain, etc?
[Hero CDMA General] Mistamike17:
Like they were still on 1.5???
[Hero CDMA General] PlagaDeRock:
Yep. Most of our community just cares about the new kernel. Dont lie to yourselves once the official update comes you'll be back here getting newer optimized versions of it lol.
[Hero CDMA General] PlagaDeRock:
Because we're all running 2.1 on optimized 1.5 kernels... We're official drivers needed to make our 2.1 run smoother. Who knows though that could be the reason its running late maybe they're having issues with some of the same stuff we are. Although to be honest I think they should just send an official copy our way and let Toast, Fresh, Damage, and Regaw and others fix it lol.
[Hero CDMA General] regaw_leinad:
ummm, no.. the kernel source wont be released with the update. That has to do w/ HTC, not Sprint.

And you're a kernel dev now lol? I thought you said you didn't even have linux..
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
honestly im beginning to think the hero will not be getting 2.1 at all. i think once the EVO ships the hero will be a thing of the past. another possibility is sprint may be trying very hard to get the 2.1 image to not be able to become root able. i know the devs here can crack anything but i have this gut feeling it may take longer to crack this time. :(
[Hero CDMA General] fixxxer2008:
all of the 2.1 roms have some issues, some minor, some major. i still think the EVO will be the only phone to get 2.1 and it will ship with it. i think the hero & moment will be left behind.
