[Windows Phone 7 General] Windcape:
I like how it seems to be tied to the Zune/Box account-system, so it's basically shared content between the two platforms, if it'll be relevant (Mostly thinking games here, as Zune isn't available in Europe *grr*).

It's a long business orientated talk, but I think it it's worth a watch for anyone who's interested in making money on their applications.

The part about we get five free applications on the market per year is also pretty good solution to counter criticism against not being able to distribute applications outside the Windows Phone Marketplace.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Helmore:
Zune will be available in Europe and many other parts of the world before WP7 launches. I expect Zune to go worldwide in September.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Windcape:
Got a source?

But it sounds damn nice. I'm already in love with the Zune Desktop Player, and wouldn't mind paying for access to their media-collection, specially because current alternatives in Denmark quite terrible.
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
I know Loke mentioned it in that session. It's been mentioned in lots of places though. Although it's important to note that movie/music subscription/purchase details and availability will vary by country because of the copyright restrictions and various laws in various countries.
[Desire General] peewster:
I'm wondering how i can check which app/app's uses my battery power most.

Just put my Desire away for 1 hour, and even in standby mode i'm losing +/- 5% per hour. I don't think this is normal, so if somebody can help me find the problem i would be really thankful
[Desire General] rolfd:
On your phone dialler press: *#*#4636#*#* then tap battery history. Tap other usage, then choose partial wake usage. This should show you anything that is running while the phone is in standby.
[Desire General] peewster:
Ok, well not much. I only see the android system is running and my dialer one.
[Desire General] rolfd:
Do you have decent network signal? A poor 3g reception can cause battery drain. Other than that, if you don't have anything preventing the phone from sleeping. I'm lost!
[Desire General] peewster:
Well my 3g connection is not really strong, but it's terrible either.

Maybe i'll reflash the rom or try another one, and see what happens.
[Desire General] rolfd:
A lot of people swear by Pays 2.1 roms and their battery life, so you might want to test one of them.
[Desire General] peewster:
And i just got used to the speed of 2.2 :)
[Desire General] rolfd:
Lol, you are not the only person reporting high battery drain on a froyo rom. Nekromantik was also having this issue. He said that 2.1 was much better.

I've tried about every rom out and am back to 2.1 for now.
[Desire General] peewster:
Maybe i will flash 2.1 back. First i'm going to look for the pay roms you talked about.
[Desire General] rolfd:
HERE they are. I've tried and like the Brave Soul version.
[Desire General] peewster:
Thnx, downloading now.

Last question. Is there a very big speed defference with the 2.2 roms ? I only know that the linpack benchmarks where amazing with 2.2
[Desire General] rolfd:
To be honest, I don't play games etc on my phone so I don't really know. As far as day to day usage goes I notice no difference in browsing, emailing, texting and calling.
[Desire General] peewster:
Sometimes i like to play games, just to kill some time :)

Flashing v2.0 now.
[Desire General] peewster:
I think my battery is just broken. . .

After flashing it went from 100% to 95 in 3 minutes, when istalling 3 apps.
[Desire General] Gerigo-Greece:
Had the same problem with the 2.2 ROM. Battery was going very fast. Reflashed Pays 2.1 and everything is better.

Besides I think the Pays has a lot of widgets already in.
[Desire General] peewster:
So which one do you use. My battery is still running backwards.
[Desire General] Zappza:
Try to wipe your battery stats and put the phone in the charger over the night. Before wiping the battery stats i suffered from a big battery drain aswell, but after wiping it improved.
[Desire General] peewster:
Thnx for the tip, i will try that tonight.
[Desire General] hensk:
I have Defrost 0.9d last frYo but after i lost my

3G settings as well mms/internet/striming &

cant find that settings I unrooted phone

& after 1st day noticed battery extended work with 2.1 original ROM

& I`m still on original 2.1 ROM, with disire camera&video .
[Desire General] Gooner4_1998:
How do you wipe the battery stats?!

-------------------------------------

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire General] rolfd:
You do it when your phone is booted into recovery.
[Desire General] ephumuris:
Ok so i flashed Pauls Froyo rom r18 and my phone hung at the white htc screen for ages. Now i can't use recovery to go back as i have no trackpad, i can't flash a standard rom as i get error 131 with the utility even though i've used my goldcard loads before.

Not sure what to do. Nothing short of a recovery with support for power button instead of trackpad seems likely to help.

Unless someone can talk me through adb commands for actually flashing?

[Desire General] tropheuz:
Hello,

I have my desire with a faulty proximity sensor, witch means that sometimes I cant hang up my phone calls :(

Is there any application that can assign any hardware button for my screen to wake up during a phone call?

I tried programs that claim to do that, but the information and action performed by the proximity sensor seems to override all programs.

can someone help me?

best regards
[Desire General] rolfd:
Does the power button not do this?
[Desire General] tropheuz:
hi,

nope :)

with an active call and proximity sensor on, I cant get any hardware button to work.
[Desire General] JohnSteveDoe:
Then no :P.

Just go to your retailer with it. If it's under warranty, they're obligated to replace it for you.
[Desire General] tropheuz:
it's not under warranty...

isnt there a way to disable the proximity sensor? I wouldn't mind if the screen stays on all the time when in call..

can someone help?

regards
[Desire General] GANJDROID:
Turn your screen timeout to 30 mins? If your proximity sensor isn't working then it won't turn the screen dark when you put the phone to your ear.
[Desire General] tropheuz:
My problem might be with the two sensors (proximity and light). As soon as I make a call the proximity sensor orders the screen to shut down and to wake up the screen I have to point a bright light...

I think the solution... if there is... is to disable the proximity and light sensor forcing values.

any help besides get the phone to repair and pay $$$$ :)
[Desire General] el93mon:
If you plugin the headset you get the screen back.

[HD2 General] HD2freaKK:
Hi there...

I Just have a question...Why the image quality in opera is soo low..in IE is much better,is there any way to incrase the image quality??

Thanks in advance!
[HD2 General] HD2freaKK:
Anyone help's...im getting nervous on zooming images and then just a blurry image...i would use IE but is terribly slow...pls help me!
[HD2 General] semihbalcioglu:
maybe you have activated opera turbo? if so, deactivate it and try again
[HD2 General] HD2freaKK:
Opera turbo is only in the Opera 10 version but i currently using the 9.7 version anyone could help?
[HD2 General] HD2freaKK:
Anyone know something about my problem? Is that normal that the image quality is so low?
[HD2 General] pettekneuz:
Should be in options as opera turbo or something similar, just try a few of them
[HD2 General] HD2freaKK:
in options there is nothing similar only cache size,java script,pop up and thats it!

It s didapointing this quality...
[HD2 General] otherworld:
I've noticed it too - and I don't have turbo mode on. Just seems to be low quality when you zoom in (normal zoom to the level where you can read the text - not magnifying zoom) on pics.

Would love a fix - I use flickr a lot for my photography but opera 10 (as I am using) often makes images have that 'jpeg saved at too low a quality' look.
[HD2 General] rumz82:
Hi Guys.

This might sound stupid, but i once heard that it was your network operator who actually has something to do with it through the data plan.....

...apparantly they reduce the image quality through the data plan.
[HD2 General] iraqisniper:
off

turn off turbo mode homie
[HD2 General] xaccers:
The way to check if this is happening is to try the image in a different browser such as PIE, if the image is clear then it's an Opera issue.

Or you could turn of the data connection and test via wifi, if it's still not high quality then it's an Opera issue.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Yes, some operators automatically resize the images before sending them to you, to save on bandwidth. Not much you can do if it's the case.
[HD2 General] rumz82:
So it wasnt stupid then! :D

Hi,

there are lots of guides all over this forum, most of them are sticky threads or links within sticky threads. There is also a lot of information in the Wiki, and then there's always the good old search button :).

Failing all that, there is a Q&A forum for quick and easy questions, or just post a little more info in this thread and someone will hopefully be able to direct you.

I am lookign for a simple to use screenshot app, ive tried shootme and picme and im not fond of neither of them, any others?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pseudoremora:
You could always use the Android SDK to take screenshots. Go HERE.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phrac:
I've been using drocap2, it works pretty well. You just click start, navigate to where you want to take a screenshot, then shake the phone. Stores the files in /sdcard/drocap.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GReddySetGO:
I use "ShootMe" works the same as described above. Leave it running in the background, just shake the phone to take the screen shot. Saves it on the SD card.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDSL:
Not really sure why you don't like shootme? Launch and shake..doesn't get much simpler than that really.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandam500:
Yeah I also use ShootMe and its perfect.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Haven't tried shootme, but drocap2 works great for me. Always running in the background, customizable activation methods (shake, timer, or notification bar). I use notification bar. Pull the shade down, hit drocap2, wait a few seconds, screen shot taken and saved to its own folder on the sdcard.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jadehawk:
Thank You

Shootme works great Thank you for the suggestion!!! Loving it :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gthing:
shootme is great except it makes a camera noise every time you take a screenshot which is annoying and sometimes embarrassing if you're playing with your phone while in a public restroom. :D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheBiles:
You can turn it off. Click the little speaker icon on the "Accept or Reject" screen.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GReddySetGO:
Anyone else having any problems after the OTA update?

I can no longer use ShootMe or dropcap :( They were both listed for rooted devices only, but they worked prior to the update. Now, neither works.... Anyone have any suggestions??
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobFromAccounting:
That's because the OTA update fixed the giant security hole that allowed some programs that required root (like ShootMe) be fully usable while unrooted.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] rsacipher:
I've been a WM fan for years but recently a friend got the Droid on Verizon's network and I got to play with it and really liked it.

I know I can get an Euro Milestone but don't want to give up 3G speeds here in the US.

Are there any talks of getting this phone or the new updated one on TMO?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kevin2210:
forget it man in US if you want to buy a motorola droid the only way is verizon
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Shiny_Lucario:
Yeah, it's basically Verizon's version of the iPhone (since when they released it/a short while before they released it it they made all the comments on how the Droid could do so and so and the iPhone couldn't do so and so (which of course since it's the iPhone, there's quite a few things it won't do that the droid will xD) so it's Verizon's major competition with the iPhone), chances are they won't give it up. T-Mobile gets the Nexus one though, which is a fantastic phone (with the exception of the lack of a keyboard, but you'll get used to a touch screen keyboard after a while).

[HD2 General] nazparmar:
Hi, I am having problems when I bluetooth my HD2 with the Ford Mondeo and try to use TT7.

There is No Voice from the handset.

But when I turn off bluetooth I can hear.

Has anyone had this problem or know how to get around this?

Thanks!!! :confused:
[HD2 General] thommic:
As far as I know the Ford Sound&Connect Bluetooth Modukle does only support Voice like from noemal phonecalls (no idea how to protocoll is called at the moment).

My Mondeo is build in 2007. So I have the bluetooth module but no sound&connect. Does yours normally support a2dp? Can you listen to mp3s, streamed to your Mondeo? I guess no but would be interesting to know.

In case you can hear audio (not phonecalls) at the mondeo, streamed from your hd2 this would mean its a timing problem. Tomtom is "saying" something but the bluetooth connection needs to time to come back from standby. In that case you could simply listen to an mp3 file without any sound and try it again in parrallel.

A bit hard to explain for me but maybe it helps.

Feedback is much welcome!
[HD2 General] rabthecrab:
I've got a ford mondeo (8 months old) and unfortunately it doesn't have the ability to stream audio via bluetooth.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
I've tried Missed Call, it only works for SMS, Calls, maybe GMail... Nothing I've seen in a generic fashion works to alert you when the Trackball is glowing for whatever random notification might be going on.

Surely there is a way that if the LED glows, a notification sound can be played? Any seen anything like this, or know if it's possible (within API)?

Offhand I imagine that some options like "Only play sound when screen is off" such as would be nice, as every time you install an app it blinks, stuff like that, but in general I find I've missed emails in K9, Twitter, etc, because I didn't hear it initially and it just blinks after.

Carbon Fiber Chromatics Body Skin by Phantom Skinz on HTC EVO

Also remember for the summer they have a 30% off sale on these with free shipping, how can u beat that ...

"summersale2010"

http://phantomskinz.com/htcevo4gchromatics.aspx
[EVO 4G Accessories] Fixter:
Can you please link as in where did you purchased this? Can't seem to find it.

Edit: Found it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] iTouch24:
The folks at Phantom Skinz saw the review and this is what they stated:

1) The reason that we have a small gap in the side strips is that

the pieces do/can be stretched. They can be stretched to match perfectly.

Go ahead and lift one	and try it. If you need to warm it up it will

stretch much easier but you also need to make sure that you don't rip it.

2) The very slim area between the battery cover and the side pieces

are sooooo slim that most people could not align it properly and the pieces

would be so slim/thin	that they would peel off over time. With the

pieces that we include and properly installed and heated, nothing should

come off. Different phones have different	coverage, some more thorough

than others.

ALso on a side note . yes i did knock the camera off the tripod at the end .. kinda funny so i just left it in ...

That's for the review. Pick one up today after seeing how it looked on your phone, then after placing order...thought I might should of ordered something with color to go along with some of these ROM's getting made. LoL
[EVO 4G Accessories] Waleezy:
It's nice, but not worth $30 IMO. I'll probably cop if the prices goes down to about $10 or $15
[EVO 4G Accessories] Kosmos:
It was actually $20.96 for the chromatics body skin, 2 screen protectors, and shipping.

Addition: Order on the 22dn and received them in the mail today (25th). The Chromatic went on well, did take some heating and stretching to get it to cover the entire battery cover and some stretching on the thin strips. Turned out well, though not real found of the texture. The 2 screen protectors they included...don't cover the screen 100%. Will have to do until I can find a nice hard one that does-haven't heard of any yet.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] djgknight:
hi,

a little fusrated here, Ive been trying to get my hd2 (originaly purchased from vodaphone in greece) to boot into windows.

i have tried flashing all diffrent ROMS with including, with HSPL installed (all versions from HSPL2):

from SD: original greek ROM from htc site, successful once but still no boot

usb: original WWE rom and UK vodaphone updated rom (1.77), also several cooked roms with radio version 2.08.50.05 and TASK29 flashed before attempting.

Even after several successful flashes from HTC offical ROM (which include radios if im not mistaken) the phone still doesnt boot, white htv screen or silver warning sign on black backround appear.

am i making a total noob mistake here, i have in my mind followed every combination of HSPL number, radio, HTC offical ROMS and even the HTC_ELL (greek rom) from SD. the only one i havent managed to find is the vodaphone GREEK rom from vodaphone.gr

any help at all would be excellent, its been a week of sleepless nights here, i really lossing hope.

this is hell! please help.

302 error, got to 7%. do you think usb error.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xmoo:

doesnt boot either.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xmoo:
Well urs has a Vodafone CID lock.

So flash the stock Vodafone ELL rom using sd-card, or flash HTC ELL using goldcard!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] djgknight:
i though that there was no need to CID unlock if you have a version of HSPL on your device, i never even though of that.

I still cannot locate the the offical vodaphone ELL ROM (which i dont really want as it is in greek).

back to the start i suppose ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xmoo:
Well ur bootloader seems to be corrupted. So we need to go back to the roots. And then start again, so that's why we need stock rom, or flash stock rom using goldcard!

ahh, like the sound of that. it seems to make sense. ill do that now and get back to you. thanks muchly for the help btw.

should i try a task29 again? what to do if wont even boot leoimg from SD ?? :confused:

I notice that when my phone is at 100% percent (green light is lit) and I remove it from the charger within 5 minutes I plummet to around 90 to 89 but after that the battery seems to drains like its suppose to. What I want to know is:

1. Is there anyway to fix this?

2. Would getting the battery from the HTC TP2 fix this problem or is it something with the phone itself?

My current settings are: Damage Control v.3.1.2, Mobile Network Off, Wifi Off, GPS Off, Bluetooth Off, 4G Off, Signed out of Talk, Background Data Off, Auto-Sync Off, and radio set to CDMA (PRL)

I also wiped battery stats before flashing this Rom (my battery has always had this problem even before the wipe so this wouldn't have done anything). I also tried Joker's method of plugging the phone in and out 10 times till its fully charged while the phone is off and that didn't help either.

Thanks in advance to anyone who responds :)
