[myTouch 3G Slide General] Jerzeeloon:
I picked mine up already and Im impressed by the speed,but the touch screen is dare I say too responsive,when hitting the harware keys at the bottom of the touchscreen it somehow always does something on the touch screen not intended,and swype always picks up the wrong letter,I swear you barly hover your finger over this thing and it senses touch,kinda anoying,other then that my only complaints are that I set up my faves and after reseting the phone I had to do it again.I like the ui and the sense widgets but could do without the bubble icons and the bloatware,I mean for having 512 internal memory only 130 was available to me stock,and after puting about 7 apps on it's already down to 100,I mean christ my original mytouch is running 2.1 with 20 apps and I have 250 mb internal left without apps to sd.Hopefully some roots this and I can remove all the tmobile crap that you cant even use over wi-fi anyway.plus 2.2 is supposed to open twice the memory and add apps2sd support.the camera could be better,but all in all the phone is very fast and responsive so I wont complain too much,but will take some getting used to as I still love the original mytouch and it's lightweight design and the touch response seemed perfect.2 more complaints though is the slide out keyboard,not a smooth transition,feels kinda roughopening and makes a horrid noise,and the 4 row querty will take some getting used too,and the battery cover removal is assnine I can see it breaking easily.well thats all for now,will share more if I find anything intresting.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] chrisinaz:
Picked mine up today. Not sure if I like the Faves app on the phone, but I'll play with it and see.

Only thing I'm noticing is that I get "The process com.htc.bg has stopped unexpectedly" message about every 10 minutes while messing with it.

Im still adding apps to it, so I'm not sure how it will react once it starts getting loaded with processes running.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
the faves widget is fine but the app itself is kinda hokey, not terribly practical.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] guitarfreak846:
I've had mine since early April and still LOVE it :)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] kingofyo1:
I would pick it up if there was some way for me get it at the 129 price.. I already have 2 tmobile lines, mine, and the wife's.. dont wanna pay any more a month than I am arleady paying, I dont see the need to IMHO.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
My lord... your punctuation is terrible... :)

I am thinking of grabbing one this afternoon. I also have a pre-req of a physical keyboard, so being with T-Mobile has made me stick with my G1 for this long. My only gripe is the number keys do not have their own dedicated row like the G1, but I can probably get over that.

I also am just looking for a stable phone. With the G1's limited internal memory, I was left to rooting and hacking it up, and it's all getting on my nerves. I am ready for a solid working stock phone that also has a physical keyboard, and this looks to be the one to use. It even has a 3.5mm audio jack to boot!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] slobatch:
Picked mine up today, as an early upgrade from my busted G1. SUCH a good call. It runs smoother than I ever expected, the browser blazes, and the only gripes I have are the weird bubble icons and the actual Faves app.

Also, much to my surprise, Flash is installed and working on the phone, though most of the video websites I use don't work. However, being able to see the full national geographic page load on a mobile device... well, let me tell you, it's refreshing. I can't wait 'til they release the Froyo update.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] chrisinaz:
Might be a stupid question here, but does anyone know how to change the wallpaper for the lock screen? I feel like I've tried everything.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] slobatch:
It's pretty simple, but you have to do it through myModes. Hit the menu button while you're on your home screen, then go into myModes. Select "Change your Mode" and while you're there, you have options to change your wallpaper and lock screen, as well as whatever else.

Good luck.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] Viper87227:
I was gunna pick it up today, but the lady on the phone told me if I hold out till the 26th i'll hit my 18 month period on my contract and it will drop $50 in price. Gunna wait till then, my G1 still works.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] chrisinaz:
Thanks slobatch. I think that's about the one place on the entire phone that I hadnt remembered to look at until you mentioned it.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Just got mine. The Genius button works pretty well, but I've never used voice recog stuff ever since it's been around on phones, so not sure how much use it will get.

I do like it's speed. Just trying to get the feel for it currently, but so far I like it.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] chrisinaz:
I've been about half and half on the voice recognition. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Really picky about some things
[myTouch 3G Slide General] rebelbanker:
I use Dragon dictation for voice input, and for those of us to speak the Queen's English well, it works. Awesome!

[myTouch 3G Slide General] MrOtsKrad:
The Voice so far has not failed, its seriosuly has to be the best voice controlled app ive used. Its been dead on in calling, and hicupps a tiny bit for text...which is all ive used it for thus far.

Gripes?

The sides the the keyboard are edged, they really should have been rounded (I can see myself taking a dremel to it lol), it gives it a minor uncomfortable feeling, but Im also comming form a Cliq (its leaps and bounds from that phone) so my hands are prolly still "formed" to it.

The phone as mentioned before...is a beast...and he potential it has once its been rooted is going to be fantastic. Now if we can just get a dev to pry their eyes from their noobN1s (thats right mikey, im lookin at you :P) and take a look at it. :D The bloatware and stuff isnt much concern to me, because it will be taken care of once its rooted.

What would set me nice till then is a docking station, and a slim gel case..other wise..to me, its the best android phone w/ a keyboard tmo has to offer.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] simplyTravis:
I picked one up this morning and I am glad I did. They nearly sold out before I showed up (20 minutes after the store opened). Right now I am in the process of reloading my music and CoPilot software while my fiance is napping. She is beyond tired of me testing this phone out today haha!

Mini-Review:

So far it has been very swift and almost too responsive. The phone part of it is very well done and the "linking" structure to hook up your social networks to contacts is very intuitive. Faves....meh. It has potential but I'm not seeing it yet. There isn't too much "bloatware" that concerns me on this phone that I have run in to. The keyboard is GREAT but I can see the concern in regards to the alphanumeric section of the keyboard being confusing. You get over that after a few emails though. My only gripe at the moment is that the market has been really slow and wonky but the same thing happened when I bumped up to 1.6 and 2.1 with CM5 on the G1. The market should be smooth in the next day or so. I'm sure the influx of everyone redownloading their paid apps is not helping. Ok, sorry for the randomness but I just thought I would throw some thoughts out.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
i have to agree about the faves, bloatware and the 'odd' keyboard lettering....i also experienced the market being slow though i must say, the 3G has been 'blazing' in nyc...using the speedtest.net app i've consistently hit speeds well over 2 meg!!!!!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] chrisinaz:
I honestly think I'm looking forward to root just so I can remove some of the crap that came preloaded on this phone. It's ridiculous how much junk was included with it that I'll never use. You can tell Tmo had a heavy influence on this one.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Um, so is the option been removed for the auto period inserting feature? On the G1, hitting the Space bar twice automatically inserted a period... I REALLY liked that feature...
[myTouch 3G Slide General] marty22877:
i went to get mine today at walmart for $148, found out i'm 2 months before my 22nd month which gives me a full upgrade, so i went into the t-mobile store to see what they could do, they told me they could sell me the phone for $247 with a 2 year extension, so i asked the woman if i wait 2 months after being with t-mobile for 10 years i'll get $100 knocked off my phone, she said yup and there's nothing i can do about it. so i called 611 and the woman there told me the same thing. a bunch of BS if you ask me. a 10 year customer has to wait 2 months to save $100, almost made me want to switch to verizion..,..
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
auto period is still there, tested on the hardware and software keyboards.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
Mind telling me where to find the option?
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
sorry, don't know if there IS an option as it just works on mine.....very strange that it doesn't work on yours and i'm sure you don't want to reset just to see if it 'cures' the problem.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
What the hell... I decided to send my buddy a text message as he is ordering the phone, and I was specifically *****ing about how it won't auto period, and sure as ****, it is doing it now... very weird.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
lol, look, it's borked.....oh ****, at least it was a minute ago ;)

that's ok, i've already had to reset mine as the 'my device' and 'my account' apps weren't working right...if i clicked on 'my device' the my account app would open....damned bloatware crap!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
I'm hoping to get rid of the Sense crap as soon as it's rooted.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
i was considering getting the HTC Legend as it's only $90 more for an unlocked one here in the city......but then it has NO usable 3G bands in the US, which doesn't matter all that much since i'm moving to an area that doesn't have Tmo 3g...but at least it wouldn't have all that tmo crap pre-installed and it's a really nice looking phone.....the slide is ok looking though a bit on the cheap side...very plasticky.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] chrisinaz:
For what it's worth, it doesn't feel like a cheap phone at all. Feels more solid than my g1 or cliq ever did.

[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
I completely agree with this. It does look cheap and plastic like, but is a pretty solid phone. If we could just get rid of the TMobile junk, I'd like it even more.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
it does feel solid until you open it......compare it to the slide on a tp2 ...not even close...same company, carrier and the price difference between the two isn't all that great.

it's amazing how HTC can come up with sooooo many different keyboards but they are vastly different from phone to phone.....this keyboard is ok but it's very odd in some respects....why are the keys slanted? strange choice of monotone letter coloring.....i DO like the keyboard...just wondering out loud ;)
[myTouch 3G Slide General] MrOtsKrad:
Thankfully, its not a matter of if, its just a matter of when, eugene and wesgamer and 2 others I know are already on the ball with it.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] fermunky:
So, it's a bit strange, but auto period only works when input method is Touch... this affects the hardware keyboard functioning of auto period as well.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] gerelee:
hmmm, you're right.....very odd. i hadn't been using swype so i didn't notice!
[myTouch 3G Slide General] zippa71385:
psst... all carriers will do that... T-mo has an upper hand by saving you at least $20 a month I bet... but remember the squeaky wheel gets the grease!
[Desire General] ianthenut:
At the moment they are labeled as "Image/video1" etc.

is there a way to change the file name when a picture/video is taken so that its labeled as the date.

its something that my G1 used to do.

Any helps appreciated.
[Desire General] rowanparker:
+1 I would find this useful

i guess either no-one knows or it cant be done.

Hi,

First, sorry if this topic is not at the right place. This is not only for Desire but also for all HTC phones in my opinion.

My question is, what is exactly a NAND Backup ?

- Do it backup the complete rom installed on the phone ?

Or maybe I am complety wrong...

Thanks for answers.
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Exactly, it clones the ROM image and backs it up to the SD card. You can perform a Nandroid Backup/Restore while the phone is connected via recovery mode.

I have a car with the bluetooth hands free calling feature but unfortunately A2DP is not supported, so i was wondering if there was an app that can direct music through the bluetooth hands free connection....

anyone come across an app like that?

would this be the same as those bluetooth wireless headphones. can that be used on hero?

2) The keyboard button is over the softkey bar! Is another level than the softkey bar... higher than her!

Does it work???

Does it work???????????????

:confused:
[XPERIA X10 General] jensxperia:
I dont know. I have just bought one. It was only £4.95 from ebay.

Will let you know if it works.

For some reson though I have got a feeling nothing works :(

I have gonr through lots of forums and I am yet to find someone in the UK who says they have successfully unlocked their phones....
[XPERIA X10 General] dirtysnypa:
Hi, tried a rebel sim card II, it does work but not 100%. You can recieve n make calls fine on 2G but when you want to browse using network data on 3G at times you can't recieve calls.

If you want to use another network on your X10 your better using a code from eBay or unlocking.com
[XPERIA X10 General] jensxperia:
Well to be honest, I only really make calls and txt. I never use internet or apps. This phone is perhaps a waste on me....The only reason i got it is for the camera as it will be an upgrade from my SE C905 which as a good cam!

Prob should have got the Satio.....

[Desire General] jpopgt:
Hello,

Yesterday i rooted my T-Mobile phone and everything went well, today i found there is an update available for my phone 1.21.405.2.

I have downloaded the update a few times and when i select to install it get this error message...."an error occurred whilesaving your data to you sd card. the backup cannot be completed"

The phone then reboots and it looks like it is starting to update but then gets the red question mark and then boots up normally again.

I have tried 2 memory cards and i still get this message.

Anybody help me out please?

Cheers.
[Desire General] Necroman_AI:
Have you tried to disable apps and data backup to the card?
[Desire General] jpopgt:
I backed up my cards then formatted them again, i also uninstalled task killer and Memory booster.
[Desire General] Necroman_AI:
Maybe you should reset your device and as soon as finished the first configuration try the update. I don't see why it shouldn't update unless there is something wrong with your previous Rom? If this don't work try to call HTC or manually update to another Rom, like a generic one?

Hello fellow PPC fans i have flashed new Roms to my phone to see which one i could live with, to date i have tried out 3 of them Kostas 244 , PDAviet and i am now using ALEX Rom.

Is there any way to use a High Def Photo for contacts without that widescreen crop that is included in the contacts app?

Thank you.
[XPERIA X10 General] henh:
yea, i'd like to know how too
[XPERIA X10 General] iead1:
If the contact is a .vcf file, and the picture is attached, it should load up just fine with the picture included on the X10.

I transferred all my contacts from my old phone to my X10 via Bluetooth, and all the ones with pictures kept them when they arrived on the X10.
[XPERIA X10 General] mirdones:
The problem is that I no lonbger have my old cellphone.
[XPERIA X10 General] ukon:
But you do have them in outlook? Then you will have to extract them out to VCF or something. and then move them over the the phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] k1sr:
Yeah, I did them with my old phone too... worked a treat... I then synced my contacts with Gmail (which I hear can also sync pics) but it totally screwed everything up, and I lost half of my favourite contacts...

I guess my post ain't really helpful, except to say backup whatever is on there before fiddling around, or you might loose them all!
[XPERIA X10 General] mirdones:
But how do I extract my contacts from Outlook to a VCF file?

Outlook 2007 just gives me the option to import from this kind of file.

Export to CSV file does not gives me the photos.
[XPERIA X10 General] k1sr:
There are a few sister apps floating around - Missing Sync might do it, but basically Microsoft have locked down most of this stuff so you can't do it easily.

EDIT: Just found a some demos for Missing Sync - use that - get your contacts up, then worry about buying it if you think you still need it...

http://www.markspace.com/downloads.html

It's a pretty good program if you ask me, although I'm pretty happy with cloud syncing - I just with Sony Ericsson sync wasn't removed from my device... :( Google sync sucks. :(

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
Today my calendar has gone crazy... I only see SINGLE events WITH a reminder. I don't see it if there's no reminder, nor do I see it if it's recurring at all!

If I set a meeting that's recurring to not recurr, it'll show! And it doesn't seem to be a syncing issue, as I can create a local calendar entry and it behaves the same way.

I've tried nuking my local calendar and re-syncing it from Google, it did, but same problems.

Anyone else seen this?? It's driving me insane.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
Okay, so still no idea what the hell is going on, but I've found if I disable network time AND go in and select Eastern Time (although it was already Eastern) THEN all of my recurring meetings show back up.

I don't know if this is possibly some limitation in the Android calendar or intentional since it's very consistent, but my suspicion is that maybe AT&T is sending out dumb data for the clock today?

BTW, I've also noticed that with automatic time turned on when I look at an event, it specifically says it's in the "Eastern Standard Time" but if I disable automatic time and set it per the above, I see no timezone notices in my events.

I'm disabling network time for now, I'll revisit it later, surely this is something intended or maybe I'm hitting a bug... I just can't imagine the logic of hiding recurring events if in a different timezone, assuming this is what's going on with AT&T today.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
Hard to believe nobody else has had this problem.. Maybe I have a bad entry in my calendar. Perhaps someday I'll nuke my Work calendar, or perhaps rename it and create a new one, and manually create the new entries and see if the problem goes away..

Can any one explain me why i can't be able to install my cabs on my new ROM?

I've cooked my latest ROM for Rhodium, with the build 23569... but if i tap on a cabinet file situed on my MicroSD, do not happen nothing!

With this problem, i can't install nothing! How i can resolve?

I hope ever in you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] papo:
you removed some required packages, or made a change which cause it to not being included.

have you been playing with "Shell" package under SYS?

there is an app responsible for installing cab. it's called "wceload"

search for it on pda, if it exists there. check classes in registry too, if cab files are being opened by it.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] papo:
what it's saying? just no reaction?

try to run it directly. Create shortcut:

check security setting too:

; Disable the security warning

"0000101a"=dword:00000001

check others there too
