Hi

As you know o2 doesn't have delivery report as standard. The only way can have SMS delivery reports is by having to type *0# each time you send a sms. Is there a way to have *0# (followed by space) in HTC SMS as default?

Hence everytime you are about to send a text out, its allready there by default, it save you the hassle of typing each time and also have delivery report as normal just like other networks.

thanks in advance.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] nobnut:
To my knowledge there isn't a signature as such you can add.

You can however add it as quicktext (see menu) which would enable this to be inserted in a couple of clicks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] chris10230:
well nearly perfect

you can add a signiture

all messages => menu => settings => options => menu => signature

all done then enter *0# and it will appear each time + 3 returns.... cannot be perfect :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Fame123:
Hi Chris

thanks for reply

when clicking: all messages => menu => settings => options => menu [doesn't appear] => signature [doesnt appear] to? yup your right abt +3 returns cannot be perfect lol :-)

am i doing something wrong?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Fame123:
Hi Nobnut

thanks for reply

yep this defo does the job for only couple of clicks. will hope someone can be have add on cab file with it included. or an app which installed its over within htc sms. :-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] chris10230:
what rom have you? as its in the 1.72 no idea if its in the age old 1.43.... :) mine is stock o2 uk rom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Fame123:
its the uk rom 1.66xx (Non network branded) in other words simfree?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] chris10230:
ah maybe its part of sense build 2012 then... I know that the 1.66 roms do not have this in them. Shame as its quite a cool feature.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] spamtrash:
I have 1.66 and it is included...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hebbe:
hmm, strange.... i'm with o2, too, and i receive sms reports by simply checking the option in the messaging clients options menu :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] chris10230:
i guess yours is o2 - de. o2 - uk they never turned it on!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hebbe:
well, indeed, you're right. it's o2 - de. didn't know they handle it different among the countries :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] 4D3:
are you supposed to add the *0# to the body of the message or as a prefix to the number?

also if setting as a signature would i be correct in thinking that the "New" "Reply" "Forward" boxes need checked?

thanks

MG
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Fame123:
Hi

Yes your suppose to add *0# (# must be followe by space) to the body of the text. Meaning the start of the actual text b4 you actually write your message.

And if signature way yes New, reply, forward needs to be checked too.

Hence everytime you send a message the *0# is allready with in the text msg and you then just write the text as normal. But also receive a delivery report for the text after sent :-)

thanks in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Fame123:
Hi

So has anyone managed to overcome this problem yet for uk o2 customers?

thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] chris10230:
didnt you see the post above, its the only way, O2 just point blank do not support delivery reports. So its either that hack to do it or nothing, choose a better network [not croweded by most iphones].
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Fame123:
Hi Chris10230

Reason was asking was bcz as you know there alot of o2 customers out there and surely loads of them would have lot to see this feature on their htc hd2. Hence thought may be so sum1 may have something sorted now.

Anyways never mind we still got the signature way, its not too bad.

thanks ;-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hx4700 user:
I have my own HD2 on O2. MMS is set by default to give delivery receipt and always does. I find it a waste of time, and have switched it OFF. SMS even if set in Options to give receipt does not.

Using the signature method, receipt only works if I delete the line feeds before the "*0# ". In other words, the * MUST be the first character of the message. But getting a receipt for every message I send would soon drive me batty.;) I only want occasionally to know someone has had a message, so quicktext is probably best for me, or just remembering the key strokes required.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] otherworld:
Thanks for the *0# trick! Much appreciated :) was wondering why they weren't working. It's now nicely set up as Quick Text from the insert menu.

Cheers

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ra9na:

If I try to set the option in spare parts to make the red button "home, then sleep"...the red button now does nothing. The only option that works is leaving it on sleep.

Does it work for anyone else? Any way to fix it?

I'm running Myn's Warm Donut and the newest of all the files as of about monday.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] spodg:
Have the same issue. Pressing red button once waits for 10-20 seconds then goes home. Next press of red button sends it to sleep. So the feature kinda works, but why it waits 10 seconds instead of just going home?:confused:

P.S. Holding back (camera) button for 1-2 seconds goes home too.

My topaz does not update anymore stock quotations since a few days.

Any hints?

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Bruce Inman:
Does weather update?

If not, possibly it is in your connection settings.

If so, something may have been changed in the registry regarding the server that these quotes are pulled from.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] steami:
Thanks Bruce, kind as usual.

I finally found the reason.

The phone gets the updates of the Italian stock index FTSEMIB from the site

http://it.finance.yahoo.com/

The code for the stock index probably changed since some days from FTSEMIB.L to FTSEMIB.MI.

The former one obviously remained unchanged.

So I simply deleted it and picked up the new one.

Thanks anyway.

Hello.

I am currently trying all versions of Android mentioned in this forum to try and find a stable and compatible version that i can run day to day. Unfortunately i have not yet found a combination that enables wi-fi. The ecliar version enables wi-fi however cannot connect to anything. I am currently using Myn Warm Donut loaded by NAND method. Everything working ok except wi-fi. I have tried both types of NBH files and have tried both methods following instructions contained in the foums. I have also updated with most fixes for wi-fi found in this forum and still not joy.

Does anyone have the same issue? Is this related only to a POLA200? Does anyone have a work around?

Kind Regards

Hi,

i got a HD2 which i also use in my car without hands-free kit. If there is an incoming call which i would like to answer i have to click to take the call, then slide down and click again to activate the speakers.

This is not very comfortable and there is a more or less time delay betwenn taking the call and actually hearing you opponent.

Is there any possibility to take a call with directly activating the speakers? Something like car-mode or a simple app that allows to take calls with activating the speakers.

Thanks in advance.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Quack2:
Yes, same problem for me.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Quack2:
Ok. Just found this in HTC Offcial Webpage.

"Switch between Speakerphone and earpiece during a call

Tap the Speaker icon on the Call Status screen, press and hold the Send Call button, or simply turn the device facedown"

Don't make phonecalls while your driving without handsfree-kit.

But if you do, read manual, the answere is in it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tumuz:
In Vito Audio Notes Touch 1.03 Settings you can activate Speakerphone. But all incoming calls will open on speaker.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mydom:
@ReneD70: Sure, you should avoid making phonecalls while driving but if there would be a way to answer calls with activated speakers this would be like a hands-free kit because there would be only one click on the phone.

I checked the manual but the only thing i found is how i can activate the speakers during a phone call like Quack2 allready posted. I didn't find something how about taking a call with speakers activated.

On top of all the other things this cable does, it also forces the call to be taken through the speakerphone on pickup
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] wingtytn:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mydom:
@ldx00: thanks for that link but this is not the best solution for me i think because i don't realy want to plug in a cable every time i enter the car.

@wingtytn: I don't have a cooked rom installed on my hd2. I got the original rom installed so i don't have this "feature". So this is not a solution for me too.

@madewokherd: Ok opponent may be not the best word for that :D

The best solution for me would be a second button to answer the call or a little app which causes the phone to activate the speakers when answering the call if this app is running. How can this be done? Would be great if someone could write such a hack or app.

I see, I always plug in in the car to keep the screen active, but if you don't, I see this is a problem. However, I also have a program called audioroute which I used to route the sound to the earpiece speaker when using skype (it defaults to external speaker). You can use the program to route all your sound to any output (earpiece, back speaker or headphones). If you search the forum you should be able to find it

[G1 General] outsider787:
When there is a message (text, email, voicemail) the notification LED blinks green.

When there is a missed call, the LED blinks blue.

Other applications also use the LED (eg. Craigsnotifi blinks the LED purple) etc.

When there are multiple notifications, why is it that the notification status LED only blinks one color.

Is there a way to set it so that it blinks all the colors (in sequence) for what you need to be notified? If I have an email and missed a call, have the LED blink green then blue, and then repeat.

If there are other notifications to be displayed, add that color of blink as well.

Has an app that does this been done?

It might not let you install because it is a system app / you already have it installed (don't quote me on that).

One solution you could try is manually pushing the files onto your phone in the correct locations, if you are confident you know what you are doing. Make sure you make a backup the old ones, of course.

Hey all ! Questions for the lucky ones with Evos already in hand out there.

It's unfortunately mission critical to me to be able to sync my phone with my MS Outlook contacts / calendar / notes (appointments, reminders, etc) and so on. Not running an exchange server... Just need to be able to sync my Outlook personal data every night. It's a work thing, you see...

Anyone out there in the same situation and with experience to share ? How well and reliably does the HTC Sync software work, in general, and more specifically with the Evo ? :)

Thanks !
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDSL:
Well the website for HTC Synch doesn't even show it supports the EVO yet and it also shows it only supports Outlook 2000.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Markko:
It doesn't only support 2000, it only says the latest version (2.0.33) supports 2000 - it previously wasn't the case. :)

Also, given that v2.0.33 supports the Incredible and the fact that I've read a couple times that HTC Sync actually comes with the EVO (on the SD card - EVO owners, what say you?), I don't think it's a stretch to assume it probably works with the device... All I want to know is how well HTC Sync works and how reliable & seamless the sync is; if EVO users have experience with it, then it's ideal and I'd love to hear ! :p

I have the same issue and don't like the HTC sync tool. messes with other things. I sync the contact manually with Google contacts once a month. i do this with a CSV file. I then loaded Googles calendar sync app which syncs my Work outlook calendar to my Google Calendar.

Not pretty but works and is not phone or brand dependant:)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RN-Dude:
Google Calendar has a tool on its website ( dub-dub-dub-dot google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=89955 ) to sync with Outlook automatically. I know it does Calendar, but I'm not sure about Contacts. I'm pretty sure I've seen something for Calendar contacts.

The phone will automatically sync with your Google Calendar and Contacts.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyecon82:

That's great guys but I'm not looking for workarounds through Google Calendar - I don't use Calendar, or Gmail.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tschwenke:
I am also making the switch from WinMo to Android, here is what I did to "sync" my contacts. I am not sure what I am going to do in the future, but mine don't change much anymore (4 years of working with outlook contacts, they are pretty up to date).

Sync'd phone with Outlook Contacts

Used PIM Backup to backup Contacts

Established OTA sync with Google (selected contacts only). This will remove contacts from phone.

Restored Contacts using PIM Backup

They then Sync'd with Google Contacts.

You might want to delete all your contacts on Google first or make sure you setup what has priority for the sync in the direction you want. Only takes about 10 minutes and ALL info is then sync'd properly.

Solutions for Outlook Sync

check out the following two solutions. they are both pay to play but will allow a 14 day demo period. Companionlink is a pretty decent google sync that uses google gmail for a conduit. I was skeptical but it does a great job. Seamless with the exception of Outlook notes. It even updates all contact notes etc. Calendar and task sync through google calendar. So far works pretty good. The second program was just was released this a.m. it is from dataviz, and is called roadsync 2.0. It uses exisiting htc contact, mail interface, but uses stand alone, tasks, calendar interface. This seems pretty decent as well just not as used to going to a second program for calendar. It is about a third of the price of the companionlink alternative.
