[myTouch 3G, Magic General] intruders:
One day i was found that my magic isn't charged fully - charging level is stuck at same % (say 66%) although charger was plugged in during all the night.

Beginning from this moment the phone doesn't detect battery level correctly and don't charging up to 100% nor when it is on nor when it is off. For example it can show me one value but after reboot shows differently another value (for example was 46% but after rebooting is 8%, or in some cases battery level can be even more, than before i performing reboot - say was 22% but after rebooting is 78%).

I'd tried wipe, erase system partition and re-flash rom, flash another roms - all without any luck. So i decided that my battery is died. But when i got a brand new battery (from another just bought magic), i got the same issue as in case of my battery. Also another magic works perfect with my battery.

It appears that problem in the phone itself? Anybody got the same issue?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] luminiz:
Me too....
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] adavis159:
did you try wiping battery stats (from recovery)?

I'm not sure if this is supposed to done from a full or empty battery though
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] TheForgotten:
That is what i waa going to say, but I'm sure it doesnt matter what level your battery is when you do this aslong as it doesnt die during the process. Anyways you could have a faulty phone reading the levels wrong if changing roms and doing this doesnt work.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] intruders:
I found several similar cases on this forum but no one answer that actually explain what and why it happens.

In my case i got this issue after performing battery calibration procedure. Maybe is just coincidence, i don't know.

Yep, of course i tried do this from recovery and manually deleting battery stats file - both with no luck. Also during rom flashing battery stats also was erased.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] intruders:
Tried un-root my phone by flashing Android 1.5 from MT3G - issue isn't disappear. After a week maximum detected battery level is falling down and i can't get even 40% of charge. Now, two weeks later, maximum charging level is only few %. Damn it :(
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] Scavender:
So I have figured how to do this, YAY, finally. without reinstalling OS.

You will need:

VMWare

WinXP installation disc (or image does not matter)

Artemis_USPL.zip archive

Activesync installation

Okay Install VMWare, make new virtual computer then install Windows XP on this computer.

Transfer all needed files to this computer.

Install Activesync

Connect phone, then connect it to virtual pc

run CID unlock

This should bypass problems with usb drivers in WIN 7 (VISTA) - 260 CONNECTION PROBLEM
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] reethu:
I think it given a hardware problem

This USB driver for windows 7 ..
[P3300, MDA Compact III  upgrading etc.] Cause:
Thanks alot for sharing that driver! I didn't want to install a virtual computer only because of a not working driver. Finally my problem is solved.

But with Win 7 64 bit I still had to overcome the problem with the unsigned driver. I tied lots of things and finally got your unsigned driver working using this program:

"Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider 1.3b" you can find it on ngohq.com

Note: Read the installation instructions from the link above, it explains how to enable the Windows Test Mode and how to sign a system file.

Now ROM updating using Windows 7 x64 isn't a problem anymore. :)

Thys stuff should be pinned.

Hi all

I'm looking 4 a new phone since my Touch II stopped working. I'm interested in Imagio. However, I've read many topics complaining Imagio's battery and RAM issues. Could u advise me on this? Are the issues solved? Can new ROM help?

As ur usage experience, how long does the battery last after fully charged in normal use?
[Imagio General] mmarsh665:
Hello, I'm a pretty new user to the imagio myself but if you install the app "regedit" and edit a few values (they're around here somewhere, I can't remember off the top of my head) it froms from 75+% to 40%. As for the battery, Ive had very good battery life, its ran a few days with active use without a charge and never died on me.
[Imagio General] truongpa:
So some registry editing could help with the battery life? My normal use is fone (40mins/day), sms (10-15 sms/day), abt 1-2 hours of wifi/3G, reading stories (1h/day). Can the fone live for 2 days?
[Imagio General] mmarsh665:
No, the regedit helps the memory usage stay low.

I've had a look for you also, and there isn't a 'Camcorder.ink' file in there. Just 'Camera.ink'.
[HD2 General] kam333:
Thanks for confirming im not the only 1. :)

@airwater9

i see that you've edited your (slightly questionable) initial reply, hey im not a petty man so may i suggest 2 things...

JWMD isnt difficult to learn as you prev' said in your pre-edit post, just install - select icon you want to change - then select the icon you want to use instead - Job Done!

or if you are using a custom rom, try posting on that forum as other people should have this icon/ shortcut (.lnk), however if its stock, try posting your rom version, carrier, etc maybe someone else with the same rom will have what you are looking for.

All the best!
[HD2 General] kam333:
I think you're in luck, ive just been testing a new rom (cleanex core 1.20) & for the 1st time it has the shortcut you are after, ive zipped 3 files:

Camcorder.lnk for Windows\Start Menu\Programs\HTC (in this rom)

HTC_CamCorder.lnk & HTC_camcorder.png go directly in your windows folder (then softreset)

Hope it works for u

Right... its Beer time! :D
[HD2 General] airwater9:
Don't you have 2 files...one to launch the camera and another to launch the camcorder?

My Uncle gave me his old HTC HD (Telstra Branded) running 6.1

I would like to upgrade it to 6.5 but have no Idea where to start or where I can get a cooked rom from .

I found a tute on flashing the 1.56 roms but the more I read the more confused I become. There is soooooo much information on here I am suffering from information overload and I cant seem to find a really basic step by step guide or where to download the cooked roms from all the links I follow are broken.

Its very frustrating for a newbie!!

Can someone please give me a leg up!

[Touch HD General] majorassface:
Hey Darkfibre,

Welcome to the world of phone flashing! First of all it's very important to know what kind of phone is it, is it GSM or CDMA? After that, you'll have to unlock the phone in order to flash a custom rom. If you've got a GSM device, then XDA is your best friend, if you have a CDMA phone then head over to ppcgeeks.com. Each site will have detailed instructions on how to unlock and flash your phone. Then it's just a matter of trying out a few roms until you find one that suits you. Goodluck and happy flashing!!

Hi everyone.

Well I built up the courage and now its 6.5 Energy.Blackstone 21908.Sense2.5 rom.

WOW Wat a buzz when it boots up in the new rom.

Love the new ROMS its made the old HD a new phone. Now its smooth and responsive with great usability.

Just LOOOOVS the sense 2.5 interface.

Cant believe how much I have learnt in the last few weeks

You right Krook this could get adictive!!

I would like to get a pinch zoom working just to rub it in the nose of the apple buds!!

I loaded pinch to zoom but it didnt work. Is there a Rom where it works, or should I stay with opera 10.

I also run the android app on it but its a bit micky at the moment.

This **** is really exciting but HOW do you learn it all!!

I really bow to all you guys U the MEN!!!
[Touch HD General] majorassface:
Hey Darkfibre,

Pinch to zoom isn't really rom specific. I know I had a bit of trouble getting it going the first time. I believe opera 10 is still not supported but that may have changed. It works for me in Opera 9.7 build 35964. You may need to install a different version of opera to get it running. Still not really worth the effort imho but it's a great start.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandervanzijl:
It is Time (please imagine a sad song at this point)

My diamond will be replaced in a few weeks. Something that will probably happen to most of your devices.

The newer models do everything better and faster, they look better, last longer etc. As a poor lonesome cowboy it is riding towards the sunset.

However I feel that it would be a waste to let it gather dust in a drawer.

So I am looking for things to do with our diamonds.

The reason I started this thread in the rom section is because I am looking for roms or kitchens to use on these "second life" devices.

options are:

- mp3/mp4 player. An optimised rom for media playback.

- Navigation. Use your phone as a navigation device.

I am looking for fast-boot roms, that have minimal options enabled, but offer the possibility to run navigation or mediacenter software.

so what are your suggestions for:

Roms or kitchens?

what programs to use

other mods to your phone to make it work as a new device.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandervanzijl:
my own idea for navigation device:

big battery for longer life

cable for TMC reception

car holder with power connection

very light rom. radio, bluetooth, wifi might be disabled (depending on navigation software possibilities)

install TMC driver

install GPS driver (the one that recalculates your position to correct for lag)

install navigation software that supports TMC

install maps

autoboot navigation software

I am looking for your tips on ROM and navigation software that works best/fastest. using tomtom at the moment, but that does not fit the description
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] earni:
i did this with my old device, just download any of the 'light' ROM's. i had to dig waaaaaaaay back to find a WM6.1 without sense or Manila.

i just installed my iGo8 software and put it in the startup folder, now the device boots quickly. and goes straight into the nav program.

hope this helps you
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] thecrazyman64:
Like earni said, just grab yozgatgs kitchen and remove all the things you don`t need and you will have a fast ROM and of course a lite ROM.

All the best!:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandervanzijl:
I am looking into igo as navigation software.

I see that there are a lot of threads about problems getting it to work on a diamond. could you share how you were succesfull?

how fast does your device boot?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kimo_ig:
try McGuider Sygic navigation software!! It's nice, simple and has an easy-understanding interface with lot of features.;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Poedra13:
If you don't want to make your own ROM,you can download and upgrade your diamond with the gen.Y pxD-0 core version.It's only 36 mb and it hasn't got manila or something like that,it's a clean ROM....If you want,give it a try! ;););)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ziziok:
the gen.Y pxD-0 core version is nice, but it hasn't got quick gps. I've installed it from CAB, which I found in the Internet, but it doesn't work. Probably Diamond has special quick gps version.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandervanzijl:
I think i will go with igo, because that seems to support the TMC of the radio, with a special driver.

I think i want to add media playback support to the device.

so that would mean i need a good mediaplayer, and maybe a light weight icon launcher, so i do not have to use the windows startmenu.

what are ideas about these?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] nightly_shadow:
wow.. what a mean words.. "Old"

i think Diamond is not old enough for just 2 years only.. :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
I strongly disagree....the Diamond is the best looking device HTC ever made! but then again...i'm a woman

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c0t0d0s2:
I have a weird problem.

I originally rooted using the "one touch root" method, had 4g problems, and did "starting over". Running the latest (3.2.3) DamageControl rom.

And 4g works...

...for about 6-10 hours, then stops.

If I watch from the "4g status screen" It'll go:

scanning...

connecting to sprint...

getting IP address from sprint...

then just "hang"

If I reflash wimax, it works again.

This has happened twice now. Any ideas what the heck can be causing it?

(My MAC is not the "DEV MAC" address some people are getting, it's a 38E7.... address.)

In my searches of 4g problems, it seems most people either have it working, or have it NOt working. If there's a thread that addresses this problem, please let me know, as I habvn't seen it.

Hi Guys

Ive searched about, but cant find anything, on this.:confused:

On the X10, you have the option to hide or show number in the Caller ID section, is there anyway to hide number to all numbers

except

the ones in your address book, so they are visible to people you call, HTC had this option on its WM phones, althought the Desire didnt have this option.

thanks in advance

[XPERIA X10 General] DaHiA:
I believe its a network-related option.

Your handset has nothing to do with that unless its supported by your provider

Sent from my X10i
[XPERIA X10 General] bloke:
I dont think it is, as im using the same privider, ive been with O2 for ever, it showed up in my TouchDiamond/HD/HD2

but since I moved to Android with desire and now X10, that option isnt in there, it has 3 options, Network default, ( this shows the number) hide number ( hides obviously) , show number (shows number).

Is this an Android issue? as I dont think its carrier related... Although you do get the caller ID options from the carrier. I might Call O2 later.

[Desire General] max_carpenter:
Good Afternoon,

My contract was up for renewal couple of days ago and I had my sights on getting and HD2 but my provider discontinued it and wont let me have it any more. They only WinMo phone they had was the HD Mini which I don't like so I have been forced over to Google Android.

Now while I have seen Google Andoid and do like the UI and what I have seen of it I am a VB.NET Programmer and make custom apps for my mobile that I rely on So I am a bit stuck when I get my new phone.

Has anyone has any sucess with gettin WinMo 6.1 onto the Desire, I know spec wise it can easily handle it (alot better then my current HD1) as ultimately thats what I think I want to do...

Regards,

Max

I doubt you will ever see windows on the desire.

It's like buying a state of the art tv and changing the settings to black and white and watching a movie from a video cassette player through a scart lead with a pair of headphones on.
[Desire General] max_carpenter:
lol not quite the same is it!

I was just wondering because in the last couple of years I have seen Google Android installed on many WinMo phones sucessfully so thought it must be possible the other way round.

Its not because I am a huge MS fan (ok I probably am) but mainly for being able to put my apps on the device. I run my own company and have my own customised tools like job timing and invoice generation all from my mobile (communicating with my backend sql server) and returning an invoice (which I then print out with my in car printer :-p)
[Desire General] foxmeister:
Try looking at this thread.

It gets asked almost weekly, and is getting exceedingly irritating for many because if you'd searched for "Windows Mobile", you'd have found it, and others like it, yourself!

My suggestion to you is that if you want a WinMo phone, sell or trade your Desire for an HD2.

Regards,

Dave
