Hello,

I have searched this forum and others. I may have missed the answer.. I see where others have reported similar problems with Sense Home page weather not working. But have not seen a solution to the issue.

I am running

Windows 6.5.5

Manila version 2.5.2

Radio 2.23

On VZW with mightyrom relased on 5/1/2010

I noticed that "my location" weather was not updating on another rom. I flashed to MightyRom and for a day my location did update. But stopped after that. If I add a near by city (columbia, sc) it does update fine. GPS on my phone works via garmin and google maps. If I enable WiFi "my location weather" updates fine. I have removed "forecast_cache", without any fix.

Does anyone have a suggestion? If I missed the solution please forgive.

Airave will ruined it for me; as soon as I leave the house or turn off the Airave all is well, but I doubt that applies to you. Sprint confirmed this for me last night.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] orbitaladmin:
did you double-check to make sure Location service is on, not just 911? there are separate Sense and WM settings, check/toggle them all, followed with a reboot.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] djteotancolis:
try to update it frequently in 5-10 secs interval
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] three west:
apologies for the thread ressurection, but...

anybody ever find a solution to this?

"my location" weather doesn't work in my home area, but I've travelled out of the state, and it works fine everywhere else.

01/30/11 is the last time it updated in my home area.

GPS works fine, weather for manually entered locations works fine

Verizon says its HTC, HTC says its a local Verizon problem.

have done a hard reset, and even flashed a new rom, no changes

edit

This is my first TP2 (device ) i have never flashed another htc before ! :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] steviewevie:
Why have you posted this again here ? You already posted in the HardSPL sticky thread (which is the correct place), and I've tried to help you in there by responding.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tonev:
Thanks for that :) well because i saw other people post threads about their hardspl problems so i though why not someone might help me... and also i have opened a support ticket at http://support.htc-unlocks.com but there is no answer :(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] porkenhimer:
He probably post here cause all anyone has to do is read back a few pages on the main thread and read your bad advice to others. First u say donating is the fix then its not a fix now its the fix again. Stick to one answer and people might be more willing to take your advice. U cannot tell one person something and another person something else. The hard spl program is either a rip off or not well developed. I am guessin its simply a rip off or they would mention the bug in their original post. U never ever tell someone something is free and then charge them for it. The reason the tickets take so ling to get a response has nothin to do with them being busy it has everything to do with the scam. They are betting thr longer it takes to respond the more likely u r to go ahead and donate. They can't fool me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] steviewevie:
I think you need to read my previous responses more carefully. I have only ever said the same thing. Which is that donating does *not* fix HardSPL problems *except* the problem where you get the "non-commercial use" message.

Some people have tried to say that if you hit any problem whatsoever, just donate and it "instantly" works. This is incorrect. It seems that if you hit the non-commercial use thing, then donating does instantly work. Which seems to have led to some bad advice from others in the past.

I think it's unfortunate that responses seem to be so slow at the moment, and as I've said before and as others have said too, if you have a concern about this then there's a thread over in one of the main forums where users can pass comments to the mods/admins of xda-developers.

I'm just a user who had no problems with HardSPL himself, and tries to give some advice where I can to others who are having problem. It's a shame you don't seem to have anything constructive to say.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tonev:
Well a free software is a software where you don't have to give money for it and if you like it you can give donations... i am sure that many of the users will donate and i would donate to if only i had a credit card and paypal account...

For people wondering here is the email from the Rhodium Hard-SPL team:

I am sorry... but I have an market question too :o

When we purchase an app from market, are they linked to our checkout account or the primary account on the phone?

Initially I was using my work account as primary, as I need to use the work calendar. Now that FROYO supports multiple accounts for calendar, I am using my personal account as primary so that I can now use chat. However, I am not able to see any of my purchased apps. I am using the same checkout account.

[Desire General] ronaldo9_r9:
Hello guys,

I am very new to HTC phone and i managed to root my htc desire

using this guide nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/05/how-to-root-your-htc-desire

after root you can see in the picture i have App2sd enabled in pictures but my internal phone memory is still going lower. I have couple of gameloft games installed Ashphat 5, RealFootball, Gangster,heavy gunner and hawx and apps like astro, act1, documents to go.

I tried installing Darktremor A2SD version 2.7 but phone kept on restarting after htc logo so i rooted the phone again with nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/05/how-to-root-your-htc-desire guide.

My phone is on orange contract uk. I don't want to brick this phone.

please guide me to the right direction to install right rom with apps2sd+ or apps2sd so that every thing gets installed on sd card instead of phone memory. I have been reading this forum and Modaco forum for couple of days now. I can't get apps2sd to work properly so i can have loads of phone memory.

I have 16gb Sd card class 2 during apps2sd process i made Goldcard with sd card 4gb which came with the phone.

I don't want to brick my phone. what is the safe method?

Please guide me in right direction so i can enjoy desire more.

Sorry if i asked question which were asked before.

Thanks
[Desire General] myth1001:
I'm facing the exact same problem as yours. All the tests shows that app2sd and app2sd+ is working.

But, the internal memory still decreases. Till now, I have no idea how to solve this.:(
[Desire General] sruon:
Apparently it's related to the /data/data/ folder still filling, I don't know much more past this point.
[Desire General] ronaldo9_r9:
There must be another rom which has app2sd+ where application gets installed in to sd card.

I am not sure about if i should boot to some awesome roms posted here. Will try when someone who was in same situaution as me gives me thumb up to install new rom and apps2sd which works
[Desire General] foxmeister:
As has been previously said, the application does get installed to the SD card. However, any "data" in /data/data is left in internal memory.

I have Copilot installed on my Desire. It takes up 18.50mb in total - 11.23mb for the application and 7.27mb for data. If I used Apps2SD, I should regain the 11.23mb, but the 7.27mb data is still in internal memory.

Regards,

Dave
[Desire General] ronaldo9_r9:
I understand that some data gets installed on internal phone memory. I also read in these forum people are downloading google earth and co pilot big application and they still have over 100mb data left in internal memory. I haven't installed apps2sd+ i only have apps2sd normal when i followed this guide nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/05/how-to-root-your-htc-desire.

I wanted to know is there any other rom which has apps2sd+ which store majority data in sd but not internal rom.

Which rom do you think is better for newbie like me. Modaco customer R3 which has app2sd+ custom build or any other free rom in htc Desire Android Development thread?
[Nexus One General] Namuna:
Totally random tidbit here...

Was listening and reading along with the lyrics of White Zombie this morning via TuneWiki. While 'More human than human' was playing there's a section where he says "I am the nexus one...".

Just thought it was kind of cool to be on my N1, listening/reading to a song from 15years ago...That mentions the Nexus One
[Nexus One General] obstacles can kill:
Haha. You are absolutely right. As soon as I read your post's title, I started singing the song in my head. Now I've gotta put it on.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahasmb:
I'm on a Rogers HTC Dream. And since the whole 911 fiasco, when they cut off my data, I upgraded to a new Radio (3.22.26.17) per someone else's recommendation.

Although I now don't have my data completely cut off (with it never returning), my data connection still disappears randomly and chooses to only return after 5-10 minutes. This is really annoying and really inconveniencing.

Any idea what I can do to fix this? (I can't find any solutions anywhere else)

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gratton:
Is there a way with the stock rom to change the home icons at the bottom? I see many mods with very icons...would like to have them without rooting. Is it possible?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] evilkorn:
Home icons at the bottom of what? You can either use a home replacement to change icons or have root because without it you can't write to /system/ which is where the stock applications are stored.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jbrady33:
New Touch Pro 2 user (replaced original TP) Stock Verizon ROM

Dumb question - everything I see on WinMo 6.5 talks about the Titainum home screen. If I turn off HTC Sense to get the stock WinMo 6.5 stuff I see the old 6.1 WinMo Home screen. What gives?

Had this thing 2 days, like it but already thinking about a cooked ROM :( Want fast and all on one page - time, date, mail in each mailbox, upcoming appointments, missed calls, voicemail waiting yes/no.

The 6.1 style home page would be passable but the new honeycomb start menu sucks.

Anyone else not understand why the rest of the word loves these slide/flick/chase-the-icon-you-want-with-your-thumb-while-it-slides-away interfaces?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] worwig:
I have no idea why people want that.

It's there.....

It's there....Titanium< Go to Settings/All Settings/Today/Items/Windows Default. Windows Default is Titanium!!
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] jbrady33:
Thanks manbat, I see what you mean. Feeling a little out of the current fashion for this stuff - the interface that looks best to me is the classic WinMo one - no sliding around and everything on the front screen at a glance.

Not slick looking like Sense, but quick and useful (except the ridiculous Start menu). Any other dinosaur like me feel the same? :)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] antjc80:

[XPERIA X10 General] dong2007:
Let me first clarify that I'm talking about in theory :)

It would theoretically be possible to cram X10i´s Android on Vivaz?

And vice versa again cram Vivaz´s Symbian onto X10i?

I think they have both 8 mega pixels and both video recording.

Both have three physical buttons at the bottom, and not least touchscreen :).

However, the Vivaz not blink indicator.

Sry for my bad english :o.....

[XPERIA X10 General] tuxStyle:
Usually is pretty difficult to port an OS on a different phone.

Just like your windows at home, a phone needs drivers for everything and this means those drivers have to be available or written for that specific platform.

To answer your questions, yes, it is possible :)

It is doable in short time? Most likely no.

It took years for android to be ported on iphone 2g and 3g and is not ported yet on 3gs so, figure out how long will take to put symbian on X10 (personally i'm wondering who will want that. i got rid of my old phone simply because was running symbian).
[XPERIA X10 General] dong2007:
That´s right, but now Android OS and iPhone OS, us two completely different Operating systems.

I think more that you could cram a modded X10i Android OS (With S/E UX) onto Vivaz (Since they both phones are from S/E) So you just missing and create driver for Screen and processor ??.

Know that it is not equal to ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] jay_ind:
Can i install windows mobile 6.5 in Vivaz ???

Can i install windows mobile 6.5 in Vivaz ??? any !dea ?
[XPERIA X10 General] vengeance1990:
From my experience with symbian (nokia 5800) i dont think you can port an os onto it, however since symbian is now open source it my well be possible

[XPERIA X10 General] kmaximax:
Square peg round hole!

VIVAZ has just 75MB internal memory X10 has 1gb! ...even the X10 mini tops that with 53 mb more at 128mb! ... taking into consideration customizations/branding etc it could be more or less left over of the total!

It wont go!
[XPERIA X10 General] dong2007:
It would be great, if we could get Android OS on Vivaz. :)
[XPERIA X10 General] geo_saleh:
why not...

Google "jetdroid"

to see that its possible to install android on Samsung jet which is Java mobile
[XPERIA X10 General] x10Mike:
Please God not Symbian. Terrible software memories from my Vivaz experience which lasted a week before swapping out for a w995!

It was like trying to playing COD on a Commodore64
[XPERIA X10 General] Chris52:
Why not?

Vivaz has got OMAP3630 720 MHz ARM Cortex A8 like Motorola Milestone 2.

Camera driver - maybe from X10?

There are Jetdroid and Wavedroid.. So why not Vivazdroid?;)
[XPERIA X10 General] dong2007:
I have tried to make a compare... :)

But it could be nice with Android OS on Vivaz...
[XPERIA X10 General] ballubas:
I dont think you really get it, its like trying to mate a snail with a tiger:-)
[XPERIA X10 General] dong2007:
Maybe, maybe not.

X8 have 3´ screen, 600Mhz, 168Mb Ram. It has worse hardware and it runs Android;)
[XPERIA X10 General] TheFstX:
A friend of mine has a Vivaz and has just today asked me whether it would be possible to install Android. From the hardware requirements, it would be possible.

Is it possible or not? Where can I make myself smart or where there are instructions for it? He would like to flash his Vivaz with Android, Symbian so down! He asked me to make me smart and then maybe flash to be Vivaz with Android.
[XPERIA X10 General] t3rm3y:
im also looking to flash a cfw to the vivaz, my girlfriend got one and is moaning that she hates it, i have had a look and it is a pos, dunno how it got go ahead to be made. looking to get rid of symbian, (never been a fan) and put android, or wm, or anything better then what it currently has.

is there any update on this theme >?

ive got a vivaz as well and its poo. id love to have the android os on it. i was just wondering is there any way to at least update the symbian os? even if only to symbian ^2?
[XPERIA X10 General] emijomo89:
I know how to get android on the vivaz... get an Xperia Neo :P

hehe, lame joke, i know.
[XPERIA X10 General] pissat4motion:
I also had the vivaz before my x10..hated it from day 2..lol. I couldn't get past the small screen much less the symbian os my brother warned me about. Took it back well within my 30days..
[XPERIA X10 General] Lord Takyon:
I liked symbian, in the nineties lol

Symbian is just old hat now.
[XPERIA X10 General] brulexlaga:
well my vivaz improved a bit after unbranding it and installing apps like spb shell. still rubbish thou. the only reason i chose it over the x10 was the HD camera when they both first came out
[XPERIA X10 General] clawsright:
My friend has SE Vivaz mobile.. Is there any custom Android OS which can be installed on it.??

[XPERIA X10 General] egyptshun:
can we delete this useless thread?
[Desire General] franklinvv:
My Desire suffers from the following problem: whenever it's connected to AC, it will charge until 100% but then after some arbitrary time period it will discharge quickly to 90% after which it will slowly charge again until it reaches 100%. This can happen two or three times each night. This means that if you take your Desire out at the wrong moment, the battery charge will be at 90% instead of 100% which is EXTREMELY annoying.

I'm thinking that there must be other Desires with this problem, since my previous Desire (which was replaced because of WiFi-problems) exhibited the exact same behaviour. Does anyone else notice this? Or is anyone else willing to check (by means of using Juiceplotter overnight) if his/her Desire suffers from this as well? I just can't believe that the two Desires that I own/have owned are the only ones suffering from this ...

I already contacted HTC Customer Support and they told me that they would pass on this information to another department.
[Desire General] sruon:
It's common... even I have it.

Whether it's a security or a bug (or both!) is completly unknown at this point I believe.
[Desire General] ardsar:
This has been discussed many times, and the concensus is that it is normal. When battery fully charged, it will stop until it falls below 90% at which point it will charge again.
[Desire General] franklinvv:
Ok, good to hear that I'm not the only one. I couldn't find any complaints about this on XDA ... :)
[Desire General] franklinvv:
My HTC Hero did not behave that way, and HTC did not explain to me that it was intended behaviour either.

Also, that would mean that the battery plot is incorrect since it shows rapid discharges from 100% to 90%, such as in the following image:

Furthermore, it seems that this problem (or feature ...?) disappears on at least some devices after rooting.
[Desire General] Ommadawn:
It seems to happen to me more often than not when I take the phone off the charger each morning. It's annoying but I need the phone on, so charging it to full while turned off each night's not an option.
[Desire General] ZigmaDK:
This is usually done to exercise the battery.

I worked with developing a phone, and we did the same thing, in order for the battery capacity not to degrade because it keeps trickle charging at 100%.

So you shouldn't worry about this.
[Desire General] Smith2001:
same happens to me, however i charge it over night and when i get up in the morning uplug and it charges for another 30mins (whilst i get ready for work) and its back up to 100%/99% which i can live with
[Desire General] franklinvv:
Hm, my HTC Hero did not have this 'great feature'. I'd rather buy a new battery when this one has degraded too far, instead of having a not fully charged almost 50% of the times that I unplug it.

It would be more acceptable on a phone that would be able to go for at least 48 hours without intermediate charges but clearly, the Desire (just like most smartphones) can't do that. :(
[Desire General] tama82:
first, apologise for reviving an old thread.

but it seems that charing by usb (via pc) does not have this problem.

also, charging by ac causes the battery to discharge at a faster rate...
[Desire General] RiodaITA:
Battery falls to 90% as soon as I unplug the charger

Same problem here, plug the charger before I sleep, at the morning the battery widget indicates 100% and the phone light is green, then I unplug the charger and suddently (really suddently, I mean quite instantly) the charge indicator falls to 89-91%.

Considering the poor duration of a fully charged battery I'd prefer not to lose the 10% of the charge before start using the device.

I'm quite sure this didn't appen with 1.15 stock ROM, I suppose I'd noticed it in case...

I can't remember if this appened after FOTA update from 1.15 to 1.21

With 3.1 modaco ROM I had this problem and now even with 1.23.351.1 Build rooted and A2SD+.

I tryed different radio ROMs without results..

I contacted HTC customer support, they told me to use an app manager like Taskiller to close unneeded applications that drain battery... lol

Obiouvsly they don't know anything about this problem..

Any ideas? It really hurts me to start every day with 90% of the battery!! :)

Thanks to all!
[Desire General] .:george:.:
Hey, I have the same problem since I updated OTA version 1.21, never happened to me before with 1.15. Now when I wake up, I have fully (100%) charged battery, but after a minute or two it instantly jumps to 92%.

Any solutions?:(
[Desire General] fradekie:
Same here after the last update.

[Desire General] RiodaITA:
I've just sent a e-mail to the customer support of HTC explaining the problem, as soon as I have an answer I will post it here.

It should be interesting to do a factory reset and test with a recharge without installing any other stuff. Is there anyone who have a standard ROM (not rooted, original kernel) and want to do a try?

While I was writing they answered... They invited me to go to the nearest collection point to test another battery if available.

I'm starting to think the problem is not hardware related if other of our devices started to suffer the problem after the update..

I'll contact them again and we will see what appens.

Meanwhile if someone want to try what I suggested, it would be really apreciated.
[Desire General] RiodaITA:
Customer Support official answer.

The official answer: Send the device to us for repair. First try with another battery if you want (an if you can find another one...).

I'm not too happy to send my 3 weeks old device to them for 20 days so maybe I'll try to flash the 1.15 or 1.21 official ROM to see how the battery works. If anyone with the same problem wants to try to downgrade, please do it just to help to understand which is the problem.
[Desire General] psycop:
I am having exactly same problem, i dont think its a battery issue either :/
[Desire General] RiodaITA:
Is there anyone who rooted and "desire" (wow, what a joke! :D ) to try a Froyo ROM to see if the problem persists? I suppose it should be totally different from 1.21 or 1.23...

I feel a bit lazy at the moment :o, I've just done a good setup and I'd like not to redo it again....

Volunteers? :D
