I find that when you "close" program with HOME button, it will go to background and enter S - sleep state, but wil have higher priority than other programs in background (400 instead of 500) and CAN USE some cpu cycles. For example program called Network Monitor. When you run it.. it is showing graph of network speed. And when you enter HOME button, it will disappear, but through task manager you can see, that it is still using 5-7% of CPU constantly. I have read in thread about task managers, that programs in backround don't use phone resources... this is not really true. (yes programs, i don't speaking about services. I'm speaking about network monitor GUI, not service!)

But trick is, when you "close" program with BACK button. What happen? Program goes to background and enter S - sleep state, but program priority is now normal as in other background programs = 500. And in case of network monitor, now it don't use any CPU cycles.

This is not only about Network Monitor, some other programs closed with HOME button uses CPU in background too, but not constantly and only around 1-2%.

So if you can, close program with BACK button. This is little impractical of course, because BACK button have in programs another - back function, and you will need push it more times.

Hi im about to embark on a new project and am considering wordpress as a method of getting it online quick and easy. Is there a good app that will allow be to add posts and images from my phone?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pedaah:
The only one I really know of that works well is called Diarist 2.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jimsteach:
Thanks I will give that a go, was hoping for something touich friendly but will try it. Has anyone tried Shozu or CellSpin

shozu doesn't seem to have HD2 support, either does cellspin.

Please could you help me configure diarist for wordpress, i cant find any instructions anywhere. I have just tried Photospin, it does work with the HD2 and its nice and simple but you cant do upload pictures and text in the same post, only sperately.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruffruff:
Hi all,

I have been using WM devices for many years and have recently switch to Android, HTC desire. When it comes to Android and Linux, I can be considered as a complete noob.

I have read Paul's thread on rooting but am unsure on the following items:

1. After the root process, my firmware will become root 1.15.405 with superuser, is this right?

2. If I flash the desire with the original HTC 1.19.707.7 firmware, my device will become unroot, is this right?

3. How can I have a rooted 1.19.707.7 firmware? I prefer using this version due to the inbuilt Asian support.

Please kindly advise.

Thanks!

Can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruffruff:
no one care to advise?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myth1001:
I'm new to Android as well.

But, yes to your 1st question.

After following the guide by Paul you will get 1.15.405 with superuser.

The device will be unrooted once flashed with an original HTC rom.

I'm not sure how to have a rooted 1.19. But if you want support for pinyin, you can either use a Modaco Custom rom and include HTC CIME, or install Google pinyin from the appmarket.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruffruff:
hi bro,

thanks for sharing your experience. Now i am clear on the first 2 queries.

As for the last, can some kind-soul-experts advise?

I always build my own personal rom for each windows device. For android, I am also very interested to get my hands dirty and build my very own personal version. Please kindly point me to the right directions.

Thanks!

This is a modified "fullscreen" HVGA version of Six6Sicks's Iron Man animation, it comes in 2 flavors: landscape and portrait.

All credit should go to *Six6Sicks*!

Landscape version

Portrait version

To install:

- download your flavor

- put the zip file on your SD card

- boot into recovery

- apply update from SD card and select zip.

To remove:

- adb remount

- adb shell rm /data/local/bootanimation.zip

Enjoy!
[Android Themes] opasha:

[Android Themes] SG_Shadow:
...amazing!

This is an awesome boot animation. I know I'm going to sound lazy for the next remark, but can someone make a flashable version of this? I'm at work and don't want to wait until I get home to have this boot animation. Thanks in advance!

been searching the web for an app for for my desire that will allow me to take notes and also record signatures (draw) as part of the same note. then be able to save under my own file name and email as a doc or pdf.

Used to use Notes on windows mobile and need something similar

Have tried note everything which almost does it all but will not allow for text/paint notes to be part of the same note

Anyone know of anything that will do.

Thanks
[Desire General] wallaceram:
same case

same case as you!!! recently moved to android and i really would like to import my old notes!!!

let me know if you get something.

If if i can not import i would like something similar...or maybe it's the moment to forget the f** windows mobile forever!!!

Cheers

[Desire General] usticm:
notes app

The problem I've got is that I have to use my phone to record customer visits, and hence the ability to record a signature as part of a text note is critical.

otherwise I have to continue to use my windows mobile :( to record the visits. I really want to bin the palm and use my desire :p

There must be a developer out there that could combine these features, if windows mobile has it why doesn't android. I had the same issue with my iphone as well. Someone cold make a killing here if they got it together.

As I said earlier, Note everything almost does it but not the combined note!
[Desire General] Rob Pomeroy:
You want them to enter a signature on your phone's screen, without a stylus? Not sure how well that would work... I was thinking maybe you'd have them sign a piece of paper and then your could photograph it. Not very slick though...
[Desire General] usticm:
Finger signatures work fine, try it on Note everything using a paint note. Its quite novell and customers that I experimented on before with the iphone were positive. Yuo can also get a stylus to work with the desire
[Desire General] Rob Pomeroy:
MaplePaint might be worth a look.

QR code:
[Desire General] usticm:
Its not bad, but the instructions are poor and cant work out how to apply text. it doesn't allow you to email, but I guess if I can find where it saves the files I should be able to add as an attachment?

I guess you are trying to install the russian version, right?

What you showed on the above screencapture is an Uk-version of the X2.

To figure out more precisely what went wrong, you need to confirm to me that you followed all steps i have explained in the first post of this thread.
[XPERIA X2 General] ikakoo:
:)

i gave my phone back to the seller because it was prototype version of the x2
[XPERIA X2 General] hertell:
I think that the hardware is the same, but with an old software.

Did you

Reset the phone

Cancel the installation of the cabs after aligning the screen?

Install the generic_ru cab?

I did this, and i had an russian x2 with the latest R3A software...

So my opinion is that you gave back a great phone!
[XPERIA X2 General] ikakoo:
.

yes i did like you but still was the same.

now i'm going to buy SE X10
[XPERIA X2 General] hertell:
I had a couple of times that the update did not work on the first time. What i did was that i rebooted the phone, and when it asked if i want to continue the cancelled update-process i answer yes. Now the phone asks you to accept a reset. After accepting, the phone reboots, and you are at stage one again when the phone asks you to align the screen. Again when finished, cancel the update-process by removing the battery.

Now install your generic_XX cab (download a fresh copy of it!).

Now reboot your phone at least one time. What you could do is paste the content of the following files (you can get to them via ActiveSync):

\windows\swVersionCust.txt

\windows\swvercust.txt

\windows\swVersionProduct.txt

Thank you for the amazing work.

Is posible get the spanish cab for the procedure ??

Regards,

[XPERIA X2 General] gtrab:
thanks hertell

since we don't have SPL yet, I suggest this thread being stickyed

Some suggestions:

1.- a spanish CAB ??

2.- many users vahe tryed and tryed everything before with no success, which means their PC SEUS SOFTWARE IS ALREADY MARKED with their current I-wanna-get-rid-of language. this prevents the installation of a new language...

May I suggest you to include anohter step into your guide:

UNINSTALL SEUS FROM THE PC and reinstall it after the lang CAB has been installed

OR

delete folder C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\db
[XPERIA X2 General] hertell:
Regarding the re-installation of SEUS, or deleting the files, i say that that's pointless. I have not done that, and i can install any of my tested languages directly without having to every time download them... SEUS can even resume nicely uncomplete downloads!

I think that the Spanish language has not yet been released, but as soon that will be released, then i'll create a new cab for with spanish language.

There is one thing that puzzles me, and I would like to know a bit more about what they mean (This is an example from the GENERIC_UK rom):

Software Id: 1230-2799

Customization Id: 1231-4909

Customization Version: R22A

What do these values mean? I would apreciate if someone could explain me more in detail, and if someone could point me to a complete, then that would be even better! :-)

If this is some kind of flavour of each specific language, then it's not a big deal for me to create a custom cab for each of these flavours.
[XPERIA X2 General] hertell:
I just added two Spanish cabs: Standard + Vodafone. With this you can change your language to Spanish. Currently there is no spanish MR2 release, but you should get the spanish previous version installed.
[XPERIA X2 General] mafo82:

[XPERIA X2 General] xwing_5:
Thank you!!

My phone is currently in Europe as i did not want to risk "bricking" it myself: better to blame someone else if it happens ;) But you have some pretty clear instructions so if I were to do it myself, I dont think that I would have a problem.

I sent this as a link for a more experienced tech to follow and make the change from Czech to English.

Unfortunately I do not know the the answers to the questions that you recently posted on your first post in this thread but as soon as i get it back I can try to find out what I can: albeit it will already be too late because it would have been changed already.

Anyways thank you again so much for figuring this out. Dealing with SE is so frustrating: "you bought the phone in Slovakia therefore it is not meant to be used anywhere else." WHAAAAA??!?!?!? Darn SE... have some product support for once.

It looks as though I will have to do this myself: the techs in Slovakia have abandoned me!!!

Couple of questions: please note that I have never done this before and I want to get this right the 1st time.

#2 Save the cab on your SD-carddo I need to create special folder or just have this as the only file on the card?

#3 Reset the memory of your phone (settings->Clear phone)

#4 After the reboot, you have to align the screen. When finished, the phone starts to install cabs. NOW remove the battery (or press the reset-button on the back of the phone) so that the custom cabs wont get installed

#5 Start the phone again. Now when you get a screen that asks you if you want to continut the installation process, click NO. The phone boots up to default windows mobile with no SE panels etc.

#6 Now install the custom language-cab you downloaded to your SD-card earlier

How do I install this custom cab? Ex: what steps do i take to locate and extract the file?

How do I know that the installation is complete?

# 7 Turn off the phone

# 8 Start the phone and keep the vol-down + power button down till you come tho the white SE screen.

#9 Start the SE Update Software, pick your X2 and click next. Connect the phone to the USB-cable when the software asks you to do so.

# 10 After a while, the update-software informs that there is a new software-update available. Just hit next/continue and confirm that the phone's data will be erased.

Does this include the GPS, pre-installed games: xtract etc. . , and any other software on the phone: windows office mobil, pre-installed panesl etc. . . ?

Thanks again for your help!

[XPERIA X2 General] hertell:
Locate the cab on your SD-car with the file-explorer, so you can save it anywhere. Just click on the downloaded cab (eg: X2_GENERIC_UK), and it installs automatically. After this do a reset by pressing the button behind the rear cover. Now start the phone again with keeping the Power+vol buttons down. Now start the SonyEricsson update software, and start the update-process. If you notice that it begins to download about 120Mg of data, then you get a new language/cab installed.

What you get is a complete, original SE installation of your desired language.
