[General Topics] AshMa:
I've only read the first few posts so I don't know if this has already been covered. I've been with Windows Mobile since day one and I loved it until I tried Android on the HTC Evo a month ago. BTW' I had (still do) the HD2 which I bought on a T-Mobile 2-year new contract. I flashed the HD2 with Kumars ROMs (the best ROMs for WM right here on xda). I did a lot of tweaking and installed over 130 apps on my HD2 (both paid and free apps). After an hour with the Evo, I was sold on Android and now I just have to get around to putting my HD2 on ebay. BTW' the HD2 will not be updated to Windows Phone 7 if nobody else has mentioned that here.

The HD2 is nice and slim and feels very solid just like the iPhone 4G (I'm currently testing the iPhone 4G as of yesterday, while waiting on the ATT and Verizon Galaxy versions to come out). The HD2 is a good phone and if you flash it with a ROM like Kumar's, things are pretty good on it but don't looking for the best of gaming on it because the newest and best games aren't there. Also a lot of apps won't be as nice as what you can find on the other OS's. Furthermore, a lot of older WM apps are not easy to use on the HD2 because of the lack of stylus support.

The Evo is as close as you can get to having an HD2 running Android so in other words the Evo would almost be like having your HD2 and Galaxy together. My Evo has been good but it had the raised screen issue (as well as a dead pixel and yellow streaks on white backgrounds). I wanted to just get it exchanged but Radio Shack has been all sold out. So I decided to try the iPhone which I had to jump through hoops to get it mailed to me.......

The Galaxy has a nicer screen technology and looks better so I keep reading. But from what I can see of Samsung, I think I like HTC Sense much better than TouchWhiz. Plus the design looks much better than any of the Galaxy designs as far as I'm concerned. Evo or Galaxy = good choices. HD2 = a dead OS that you'll be happy with for a minute and then you'll regret not having a newer OS.

That was my two and half cents plus tax :p
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavensblade23:
Is there some way to manually, permanently, flash new versions of Clockwork Recovery as they're released? Does flashing a new custom recovery actually require the unrevoked tool if I've already flashed an older version, or can I download it somewhere and just update from zip?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doug piston:
the only way to reflash recovery as of now is with the unrevoked tool. the newest recovery seemed to be needed for the new CM6 test to flash. could have been operator error as i was intoxicated at the time. i had a rant about flashing the new recovery in irc last night about it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BossMafia2:
I dunno, I got the latest recovery through rom manager, it installed and the version number in recovery reflects the update
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMK83:
If you use rom manager to flash it won't stick. Pull your battery and reboot into recovery. Vol down + power and select recovery. That will display your flashed version.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BossMafia2:
It's displaying 2.0.2.1

EDIT: You could also do "adb reboot recovery", for those of us who aren't really fans of doing battery pulls. I feel like every time I take that cover off, I'm weakening the plastic and one day I'll have to duct tape the damn thing together
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryoojin83:
No GMK is right, flashing from ROM manager isn't permanent (i.e., its not actually on the recovery partition)

Notice when you enter the recovery, it looks like its flashing something...

I verified this when I installed CM6 nightly. I had the 2.0.2.1 'flashed', but after I updated to CM6 it was suddenly back to 2.0.1.0
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] photonmedia:
Does anybody have that latest recovery image available for me to download? I wanna try something....
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Refot_Sirk:

To hold you over, we just shipped a small update for 2 that allows you to choose a recovery.img to flash: http://unrevoked.com/recovery
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Studmf:
Just updated 2 incredibles, thx
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nfcrockett:
Just seen that, update does allow you to choose a recovery and also updates to ClockworkMod 2.0.2.1 automatically.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
Only problem with that is, Koush has not released a persistent clockwork recovery image ;)

The zip file downloaded via rom manager is not just a single file.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdmba:
Update Released

Koush has posted v2.0.2.4 for the Incredible; so if you wanted to test unrEVOked v2.1 Reflash, you now have your files ... good luck!

I got it. Just reflash in Rom Manager.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
It amazes me how many folks here still have no clue (despite the MANY explanations) that ROM Manager cannot flash the recovery and make it stick due to the NAND being locked.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Imaulle:
just posted this in the other thread

here is the img

this is what you need to flash with the latest 2.1 unrevoked tool
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrynalyne:
Yeah I saw, and gave thanks. Much appreciated :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intersysx:
Reflashing in Rom Manager doesn't allow it to stick either - reverts back after reboot
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreamersipaq:
Wow... Ahem... allow me to explain! FLASHING IT IN ROM MANAGER DOES NOTHING!!! YOU FLASH THE IMAGE USING THE UPDATED REFLASH RECOVERY TOOL THAT UNREVOKED POSTED FOR US. R.T.F.M!!!!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harr916:
I was having some issues with my Youtube HQ so I decided to contact Sprint to help me fix this. While doing the troubleshooting the Sprint agent recommended, I noticed that my network connection stopped working. I contacted them several times trying to get an answer why is this occurring, but no one could give me an answer why was this happening nor fix it. I told them that my network connection was working fine up to the point the sprint agent told me to do the troubleshooting.

Okay so this is what the agent told me to do. He did a phone refresh, after that he told me to manually do a hand free activation, and at the end he told me to update my firmware. Then he went on to say that the phone would work after an hour.

Now I do not have a network connection at all. I go into my setting to connect my mobile network but I get this message "Disconnected because service is unavailable." I know service is available because I have 3 EVO's and the rest are working fine.
[HD Mini General] diogogomes11:
Hi all,

Did anyone change the language of the HTC HD MINI sucessfuly (change to a Original Shipped ROM)?

I would like to have a simple tutorial to do it.

I really need to change the language of my device... Hope for your answers.

Thanks.
[HD Mini General] moscard:
Hello,

follow the guide here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694409

- Some time, you'lll have to retry many times. It seem you have to restart the phone before flashing it, elsewhere you'l receive "device not" message.

- To find the RUU_signed.nbh file, you simply have to rename the original ROM file in *.zip and extract it.

It worked fine for me.
[HD Mini General] diogogomes11:
Hummm... but does it work to change from a branded original ROM to a debranded original ROM? As I read, to change to a Shipped Rom I should use GoldCard (which is expensive)...

I wanted to install one of this ROM's http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Photon/ ---- the Portuguese ROM.

[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
Every single version of Opera Mini 5 has its own issues on my HTC StrTrk, the Java version doesn't recognize the soft-pads and I can't scroll down to accept the license agreement.

The "native" beta works fine but doesn't allow for "keyboard" input other than numbers - which very, very sadly makes it equally useless.

So I'll bite:

Which version of Opera Mini 5 did you manage to get to work?

On what OS version?

With which Java VM?

We all know the shortcuts, what would be interesting is to know how to get them damn thing to actually run properly.
[HTC Startrek] mtiberio:
I'm running the WM6.0 distribution I got from the forum (I think), the one that has the cingular bloatware.

I had to use JbedRose to avoid the input issues and still be able to edit the selector.utf.

I used the US-English mini 5.1 jar file I downloaded from opera...

yes the native WM version of Mini 5 gave me the numeric only input problem.

yes, the native and certain other certain java VMs gave me the no accept/softkey problem.

and some of the java VMs I tried, wouldn't allow me to edit the selector.utf file, which is necessary to insert "tckmax" as the domain if you want to avoid clicking yes for internet access...

Hope this helps...
[HTC Startrek] freibooter:
That helps a lot, thanks. I'll take another look at JBedRose. Is there a version that allows installation of itself and its Java-Packages on the storage card?
[HTC Startrek] mtiberio:
unknown. not something I was looking for.

[HTC Startrek] mtiberio:
frankly, I've given up on 5. while marginally faster than 4.2, the UI stinks in comparison. I can easily single finger 4.2, 5 requires too much navigation to do the simple stuff like get to bookmarks and exit. plus when you go back, you do not go back to the bookmark page at the place where you were. PITA. Opera really blew it.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Was it working before you flashed this rom and radio?

It seems that most HTC Android phones are very fussy about the routers they will reliably connect to. This could be an issue with your phone or your router that is at fault.

Try changing the wireless channel and/or encryption method on your router, as this may help.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Hello, i am trying to post few extended controls from SenseSDK from eboelzner with source code.

They all inherit SensePanelBase

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=648906

They all will work under SenseListControl or direct on form.

Controls name starting with SensePanel only work under SenseListControl.

Code may be bit dirty, but is due to lack of time. But will surely be fixed and optimized.

Right now controls do not have documentation. I am working on it to make it and will post at earliest.

However there are examples for all controls in a demo app for VB.net and C#.net.

http://sensesdkextended.codeplex.com/SourceControl/list/changesets

Controls:

1. SenseButtonControlEx (very basic release)

2. SenseHeaderControlEx (2 Different Styles, see screenshots)

3. SensePanelItemEx (4 Different Styles, inludes multi columns, see screenshots)

4. SensePanelLinkLabel (see screenshots)

5. SensePanelNumericItemEx (2 and 3 digit support, see screenshots)

6. SenseSelectionControl (under development, do not use as it is incomplete)​

I did not get much time to test. however i am fixing bugs at earliest on them.

Give feedback with a reason on how you want to use this control as, helps me a lot to develop further, and if i know how it is going to be used, then it will give me motivation too :)

Requirements:

1. .Net Compact Framework 3.5 (requirement of SenseSDK)

2. Application running without any errors using SenseSDK​

Screenshots in Post #3

I know lots of developers are looking for this controls. Would be helpful to them.

If there are bugs, post them here, and they will be fixed for sure.

Feedbacks would be great.

Will add more controls soon.

Have Fun!!

[Downloads]

It was getting difficult to manage multiple versions, and release.

So now i am using Codeplex for everything.

It has Complete Source Code, screenshots, and releases for download.

Has a compiled Dll which simply can be added as Reference.

Hi! nice work! is possibile to set font of SensePanelItemEx as "Bold"? :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Yes, in few minutes :), i will post v0.2 shortly for you.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] leen15:
Oh thanks a lot.. I'm trying to implement it, but i use c# and not vb, so i'm curious to see if i did the right things :p
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
It now has FontStyle property.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] leen15:
uhm.. but how can i use the class in my c# project? I add the SensePanelItemEx to my project and build successful, but if i try in any place to create an object derived from SensePanelItemEx i have :

"The name 'SensePanelItemEx' does not exist in the current context"
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
I dont think you can include vb version in your c# project.

I think i will have to get c# versions also for this controls.

Will try to post tomorrow which should work for you.

If you want you can create a class library project in vb for smart device, and compile, and use the dll in your c# and that would work.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] leen15:
:(

I'll wait you, very need this control! :o
[Windows Mobile Software Development] leen15:
Hi, i successful convert your SensePanelItemEx to C# with this:

http://www.developerfusion.com/tools/convert/vb-to-csharp/

So here is the working c# class :)

ps. I attach a little screenshot of the working item with Bold and Red Color :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] leen15:
An idea:

I think it would be very useful integrate in this custom item the automatic resize of the height according to the length of the text and the screen position (portrait or landscape). ;)

PS:No normal Thumbnail Support?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
There is no support for landscape in SenseSDK, so nothing much we can do as we are just inheriting SensePanelBase.

Regarding, thumbnail support, i will get it checked and get it drawn. thanks for noticing, missed it completely.

Good to know you was able to make it work.

I would also suggest you to study the code so you can understand it completely and also do changes like you need, that is the main reason i am providing code.

if you find bugs, do let me know.

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] leen15:
I'm tring to understand the code for Thumbnail support but with no result because the SensePanelItem have Thumbnail and iThumbnail support and I try to integrate Thumbnail in your SensePanelItemEx but the text don't go at the right of the thumb, i think because i've problem to manage the Rectangole in the panel.. :o

I need to have like as the screenshot, with bold support! :P

PS: i don't understand the no landscape support..

The senseSDK go fine in landscape.

I think that we can user the SizeF stringSize = g.MeasureString(s, f); that you call in OnRender function but that you don't use, and the text don't go in multiline. :p
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
I dint knew landscape was supported. i will get it checked.

If you can post a screenshot in landscape mode, would be appreciated.

Thumbnail support is already coded few hours ago, and going through some basic testing.

should be posted in next few hours.

and will look same like your screenshot.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
in the last screenshot you provided, i believe you are setting the height yourself for the panelitem?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] leen15:
Yes, it is because i need MeasureString onRender! :D

Now i manually add a \r\n when the string is upper of the width of the panel, and add a costant height on every new line , but not working good in landscape mode and in different resolution mode. :rolleyes:

See my screenshot for landscape mode. ;)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
thanks for screenshot.

I already figured out the issue for height, and MeasureString is being integrated.

Will get the landscaped support working.

Do you think in first screenshot of SMS you showed, the thumbnail should have been moved to top align, rather then middle? or should have option for top,middle,below?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] leen15:
I think that would be great to set the position in screen.

In my app i need in the list of sender this right size and middle, but in SMS that i show i would have the thumb a little small and at the top (align of the first line of Primary Text, that is the contact name ) :D

Thanks for your work i wait for automatic height of the panel! :p
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Auto height and thumbnail support added.

thanks and do give feedback.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
You are absolutely correct.

But people more use Senselistcontrol, and dragdrop controls may not work in that scenarion i guess.

Not sure though.

When my current list is complete with controls extending, i will do some reading on adding control to toolbox.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
In addition, i'm trying to use your SenseHeaderControlEx.

Where i need to paste the pictures ? Because my solution compiled without problem, but i have an error message when runing.

Thanks a lot.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Create a "Resources" Folder in root of your application, and upload all images there. Make sure in image properties select to copy on device.

PS: i am working to move all images to resources dll.

Headercontrol is left still to do that. so for now use resources folder.

Download my examples. it has all details.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
thanks for example. i now find the problem in it.

I will fix it and make your example work.

some variable is overwriting other controls variable.

i will fix it.

If you notice, if you just put 1 control, then it will work ok.

only problem starts with more control of same type.

will try to post a fix tomorrow.

EDIT:

UPDATE: i fixed the issue localy, and your example works too.

I will test it more, and update the codeplex.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Please test attached files.

replace all 3 files please.

Hopefully this will work.

AutoDialog and AutoDialogTitle will be added later.

Let me know.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] meltwater:
Thanks.

Yeah hiding is a tricky one since I can only get access to the item which has been selected (as a sender object), can't work out a way to reference and access the details within other items in the list, since sense list control doesn't allow you to get to them.

UPDATE: Spotted some potential solutions within the SenseSDKDemo...will update when I've tried.

UPDATE2:

Sorted, as long as I can work out the item Name (no problem), I can grab them from the sense list.

SenseSDKExtended.SensePanelItemEx.HTCContactsStyle3 oItm = (senseList["spItemEx1"] as SenseSDKExtended.SensePanelItemEx.HTCContactsStyle3);
if (oItm != null) { oItm.Visible = !oItm.Visible; }

Back in business!

General question, what is the Object "Tag" used for normally? Are there any problems with using them to store general data (i.e. an object which contains all the related info to the list item).

Looking forward to your next release (thumbnail resizing, text box dialogue, tool bar? etc).
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Nixeus:
Hello,

Just to tell you that on the SenseHeaderControlEx control, the Text property is erasing sometimes !

Why ?

I don't know why, but le line

"this.mySenseHeaderEx.Text="Helllo"; is deleted .

Good evening,

regards,Nixeus
[Windows Mobile Software Development] greenhacks:
Can you paste the code where you call the control?

i just need to see how you call the control properties.

thanks.
