Hey! Got a HTC touch diamond.

Yesterday i plugged in my phone for the first time to my computer running windows 7. It started syncing and stuff automatically. Once completed, all my contacts were gone from the phone, and there are none on the computer (its *****ing about that i dont have any software for the contacts, so it cant back them up or sth, coz i dont have outlook installed)..

The thing is, in my pim.vol file, i can see the contacts.. but they aren't on the phone. What to do?

Cheers

Hi,

I was playing around with the new (fast, fast!) global search from froyo and noticed that when I type a whole word that might correspond to a business (e.g. restaurant, bakery) I get an entry for it. The funny thing it even shows the rating and the phone number, and when clicked gives me the option to call, show on map and even add to contacts!

How crazy is that? Did you know it?
[Nexus One General] garyo:
Mine doesn't do that. Is there a preference or something?
[Nexus One General] nDrg:
It only does it using the new google searching widget. It works pretty well actually, even in a little village like mine :)
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
Yeah it's a great little feature, will come in handy for sure.
[Nexus One General] The Jones:
All I can say is, wow!
[Nexus One General] maedox:
Doesn't seem to work for me in Norway.
[Nexus One General] frandavid100:
I think you have to check an option in the privacy settings for it to work, but you don't need the search widget: pressing the search button in the home screen gives the same results.

Anyway, does it happen to you that the results it gives are farther away than other existing ones? E.g. you get a bakery two km away, when you know there is one at a hundred metres and it appears in the maps too.

I searched for "Pizza in Palo Alto" and also "Pizza" and whaddya know? Ummm... nothing. It doesn't work for me.
[Nexus One General] frandavid100:
It doesn't work that way, it doesn't do complex searches (e.g. you picking the place). The second try should have worked, though. If I search "pizza" I definitely get a local result.

Here's a screenshot I took last night, I just checked and it works for "pizza" too:

[Desire General] Dunbad:
Ive been using this browser since I got the phone, and it is by FAR the best best browser ive used. Better than the standard browser, dolphin hd, skyfire easily. Its very fast and great to use. But has anyone noticed issues with this last update. It appears to be fine on reinstallation, but within a couple if hours it struggles to render pages and gets gradually worse slowing it down completely.? An uninstall and reinstall gets it back speedy again, but them it just repeats. I clear cache, etc exit and go back in, but it just sticks until I uninstall it. The writer has been great in getting back to me etc and had updated the browser many times improving it, but just want to know if anyone else had noticed this?
[Desire General] JCLB:
What happens when you kill the process or reboot ?

I will try this browser.
[Desire General] poldie:
Sounds a bit crap to me. And it's still better than the Dophin one? In which way? I'm unlikely to ever pay for a browser, but i'd be interested to know why you think it's an improvement. Dolphin is really fast for me - hard to see how it can be much faster, to be honest. Bookmarks are fairly easy to use (except it's a pain to set the homepage - you have to cut and paste it into a sub-sub-sub menu, but you only have to do that once, so it's not a big deal).
[Desire General] Dunbad:
This is better than dolphin hd because it (was) faster. Alot faster. Honestly it creamed along compared to dolphin. Also I like the pin zoom of x scope. You double tap the screen, then slide left or right to zoom in or out. Single handed zooming and holding the phone very handy. Download youtube videos (which I think still exists on xscope, but not on dolphin. Updates came in thick and fast and it was a great browser. It maybe still, but for some reason, its just slowed right down before stalling completely eventually. But I was trying to confirm if this was just me or my handset. My other browsers work fine load fine etc. connections good, just slowed right up for me.

I guess it can be perhaps abit complicated at first when you use it, but once your in, that thing was zippy as hell!
[Desire General] Dunbad:
An update came through on this. And its fixed.

not sure what was up with it, but its back.
[Desire General] th3:
It's a good browser, but requires a payment = unappealing to most. It doesn't offer enough over the free browsers to make it appealing to the masses. It has its small niche though.

The single tap-slide zoom is an incredible usage idea. The browser does have other polishes on it too, no doubt.

I didn't have the issues you were having with it.

Yeah, that single pin zoom comes in handy. PinCH zoom is no good if you wanna browse the net and have a cigarette at the same time!

once the evo root is released to the public will it be possible to use google nav with turn by turn voice?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyleblakepeters:
Not sure if I reading this wrong, but isn't all 2.1 devices available to using Google Nav with Turn-by-Turn voice navigation?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lil_wayne99:
i assume so. but from my understanding sprint blocks the voice part so u would have to look at the phone to get the turns. i wanna be able to just put the phone on car charger and lay it down and have the google nav lady tell me the turns as there coming up. like with sprint nav.

Wow, thats the first I heard of that, and totally lame. Hopefully that turns out to be misinformation.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keishou:
Just to clarify... The Evo does have Google Navigation with voice turn by turn. Root is not needed and Sprint does not block that functionality.

I dont't know, do you uncheck tick in USB to PC? Do not do it.

ROM doesn't constains uboot. You can flash it but without low level format

(i don't test).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] notpeny:
I've flashed and tested this rom for one day, it seemed draining battery power even when the P350 was powered off during the night. I got rid of it. Anyway, thanks for your work.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Ham3r:
PLK version of R1 is uploaded.

of course, battery drain still exists (i need working power button, suspend is changed to unnattended).

it's possible to change, just change that:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Suspend]

"Flags"=dword:200000

It fixes battery drain, but device doesn't can wake up from suspend via power button, just via SD (ejecting or inserting).

Sorry forma Crotone.. I've t9 enable and I'm from Italy :-)
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
APPS2SD is implemented, as is Chrome2Phone.

Not sure what you mean by mail interface though, but Gmail has been improved.

FRF50 probably isn't the final release though.
[Nexus One General] anstosa:
Like Rusty said, no this probably isn't the final release but it's damn close. As discussed in other threads, a lot of that stuff is from the "beyond Froyo" part of the keynote. For example there is speculation that the Music app is from a early Gingerbread build: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=686469.

Apps to SD is implemented completely, it's just up to developers to add a couple lines of code. The OS won't move apps until that API is implemented so it knows, if it can or should be moved.

The cloud to device API is also fully functional. There are working Chrome and Firefox extensions: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=686570

The new desktop Market with music purchases will likely come at the same time as the streaming music software, which according to Simplify Media's blog, should be within three months, I'm guessing around the time of the iPhone launch.
[Nexus One General] audiobastard:
Indeed, I think that there are going to be minor updates to froyo coming soon. Especially considering the simplify media isn't available yet. Maybe that will just be software and not require an app... i dunno. But Andy Rubin did say that the simplify media technology "is in froyo." So, there you go. Take it for what its worth.

[Nexus One General] greymarch:
I bought the Nexus One last February, with a two year Tmobile account.

I attended the Google I/O conference last week, and Google was kind enough to give me a Sprint HTC EVO 4G! The EVO comes with one month of free unlimited calls and unlimited data. On June 20th I must get a paid sprint account if I want to keep using the phone.

I live in Phoenix, AZ.

Now I have to decide which one I want to use as my primary cell-phone. If you were me, which would you use as your main cell-phone, and why? The Nexus One or the EVO 4G?

- Greymarch

I write about the Nexus One, and other smartphone tech at my website:

http://www.greymarch.com
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
You'll be paying $350 I believe if you cancel your T-Mobile contract, so that's probably not a good idea.

*AND*

You can sell your Evo now on Ebay for $1200.

The logistics of the situation (regardless of the phone comparisons) make it a pretty easy decision imo ;)
[Nexus One General] norazi:
evo is superior hardware but u are at the mercy of sprint for OS updates (they said froyo wouldnt be available till after 2nd quarter of 2010 at the earliest). the nexus ones main advantage over any other phone (including other android phones) is that it is not tied to any carrier and gets updates first.

the main advantage that the evo has is the 4g which is not available in most areas... also, from my tests, tmobiles 3g+ hspa is about on par with 4g wimax in speed (i have clear's 4g wimax service on my laptop.. so alot of 4g's speed advantage is negated by early tech and low coverage and its a HUGE battery killer (my netbook goes from 8hrs battery life to 4hrs battery life left when i turn on 4g)

so personally i would keep my nexus but yeah the evo still has the better hardware.... so if u want the better hardware and dont care too much about early 4g coverage and dont need android updates asap the evo would be better
[Nexus One General] subramanianv:
Evo has a sweet package of hardware, nice camera, HDMI out, 4g WiMax (if it is available in your area) and a larger screen.

But, Nexus one is going to get the 2.2 Froyo first and it might be months for it to be available on Evo, if you are not rooting it.

I would say use Nexus One until you get FroYo on Evo.

PS: Until Nexus One gets GingerBread ;)
[Nexus One General] greymarch:
e

I opened the packaging for the EVO 4G, and I have been using the phone for the past few days. Also, there are quite a few attendants of the Google IO conference who are also trying to sell their EVO 4G. It is no longer selling for $1200 on ebay. Not even close.
[Nexus One General] greymarch:
On Saturday I installed Froyo on my Nexus One. Very nice OS upgrade.
[Nexus One General] Paul22000:
Even still, if you switch from T-Mobile to Sprint:

A) Pay an ETF to close the T-Mobile account.

B) You keep both lines open and pay $50-$80 times TWO per month.

I'd probably choose the Evo, but it just doesn't make sense with your contract.
[Nexus One General] attn1:
Definitely dump the Evo for $1200 (or what the market will bear)

Use part of that cash to buy out of the T-mo contract

Now free to sign a new contract - or not - or buy an Evo outright once it's commonly available, with money left in your pocket.

For the record, N1 will get my vote over any other phone on the market.

Why? Who else has Froyo working today?
[Nexus One General] miketlo:
You can sell the evo and make up for the etf and sign up with sprint for another evo and probably make a few bucks out of it
[Nexus One General] jz9833:
I'd get the Nexus One. Early reviews of the EVO have it being slower than the incredible with the same processor. I guess the time to render images on a screen that size slows things down.

Plus the nexus will always get updates first, and I prefer the stock UI over Sense.

Also, the HD2 and EVO are just too big in my opinion. The Nexus one has a perfect feel for a phone in my hand.
[Nexus One General] bobdude5:
EVO its already rooted :) and theres a bunch of great devs who are getting it so you should see froyo on there in no time :)
[Nexus One General] johnnie93:
Ill keep the nexus one and wait for the next "Google phone"
[Nexus One General] mutantblack:
I would take evo except I don't like sprint coverage.
[Nexus One General] izmar:
Honestly, I think the EVO is just too big. And I have pretty big hands. I can fit it in my hand alright, but it's just a little uncomfortable, I feel like I really have to gorilla grip it if I want to make sure I've got a good hold. The nexus is the perfect width, and fits in my hand the way I expect a phone to.

Don't get me wrong, the screen on the EVO is great and wonderful and everything, but I don't know if it's worth being over encumbered.

Just my 2 cents.
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
I would use the nexus as the primary phone. It's perfect build quality materials and such a classy device with metal build and teflon coating. The hardware is very similar, same CPU, RAM, screen resolution, etc. I'd keep the nexus and sell the evo if given the choice. Or use evo as a web tablet.
[Nexus One General] brinox:
moneywise, this is the best choice. I also think the Evo 4G is waaaay too big for my needs. I am extremely happy with my nexus one on tmobile. And the first-in-line for the next couple updates is also a major perk for me.

On the other hand, 3G coverage is a lot better for sprint compared to tmobile. if you are at all worried about coverage, and you dont live in a decently sized city, that may be the clincher.

As for me, im in Kansas City, and we're getting 4G this summer (supposedly) and i would have definitely stuck with sprint had the Evo 4G not been a huge ass monster of a device (literal size-wise).
[Nexus One General] ap3604:
If you care about saving money: Go with the N1 (I pay $34/mo for data and voice compared to a whopping $80 minimum you would pay with the Evo)

If money isn't an issue: Go with the Evo

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] director_mr:
The downloads page for this app is here:

www dot berbible dot org/downloads dot php

I'm a new user so I cant post outside links yet (moderators maybe you can fix the link for me?)

I tested this app, and it works quite well. The app is completely free, and free to share and distribute to as many people as you want (as long as you don't charge anyone else money). There are a few translations including the English Standard Version (ESV) , Bible in Basic English (BBE), King James Version (KJV), and World English Bible (WEB). I like the ESV version, but you can install any of them or all of them and choose which translation you want to look at.

So if you are looking for a free, simple bible for your touchscreen windows mobile device (I have the HTC HD2), this is a great option. They also have install options for Palm devices as well.

[General Topics] Zd0s:
you may be thinking of course the HD2 is better because of its processor speed.

well do you really need a 1ghz processor because the rhodium apparently runs fine running the hd2 system. also the rhodium has a slide out keyboard. but i if you are thinking that i'm just taking the rhodium's side i'm not because there is some better things about the hd2 like the screen and the thinness etc.

Thanks
[General Topics] jan-willem3:
Well a lot of people form the rodhium go to the hd2. The 1 GHZ is really noticable with a touchpro 2 there is much more lag etc. Wich really downgrade the user expierce. On a rodium evrything run a lot slower. You need take care of the ram etc. In my opinion the 1 ghz it is not something extra it is really useful. For the rest the hd2 is more future proof. The populairity says enough why there are not so much tp2 users.
[General Topics] Zd0s:
but it is a lot lot lot easier to type on the hard keyboard.
[General Topics] sirphunkee:
That was exactly my concern (and it was a big one!), but I finally gave in and decided to try the HD2 for the 2-week period that Tmobile allows here in the states. I had extreme reservations about switching to the on-screen keyboard...but after getting comfortable with swype, I can say that I'm at about 80-90% of the texting speed I could achieve with the hardware qwerty, and the ease of one-handed typing and the loss of bulk MORE than make up for that little bit of difference, for me anyway.

The HD2 also affords you sooo much more "breathing room" with the increased memory and proc speed compared to the Rhodium...it really is great to not have to worry all the time about installing or running too many things at once like I had to on my TP2. I still keep it around for tweaking/testing/playing, but I can honestly say I've never once felt the need to go back to it, even when it comes to typing.

But, it's definitely an individual choice...among those of us who moved from the TP2 to HD2, a bunch are thrilled with the new hardware, but many also opted to ditch it and go back. So...try the HD2 for a little bit if you have the option, especially with swype, and see what you think ;)
[General Topics] Zd0s:
thanks thats changed my view
