After having the Evo for a bit, I don't think I will ever be able to use anything with a screen less than 4 inches. I finally got a chance to check out the iPhone 4 the other day and it seemed TINY. I know the overall device is smaller, but I don't remember my 3G screen seeming that small. Same story with the Hero if you play around with one after using the Evo for a while.
[EVO 4G General] Quiksmage:
QFT. I turned on my touch pro 2 last week and my reaction was the same as when i turned my touch pro on after a while of using the Touch Pro 2. "HOW THE EFF DID I EVER USE SUCH A TINY SCREEN". I'm so spoiled now. Like seriously. How did we ever manage on a 2.8 inch screen?

Seriously I was thinking about my Touch Diamond and HTC Touch the other day. I hated typing on both of those.

You can also download them straight from the browser too.
[EVO 4G General] drmacinyasha:
Holy crap yes. I gave my old iPhone 3G to my mum, and had to load some driving directions in it yesterday. Thanks to the giant rubber case on it, it felt like I was holding a small brick that had a complimentary LCD on it that was amazingly small.

4.3" LCD is the new way to go. Ya got that, manufacturers? EVO-size is the future, not Aria-size!
[EVO 4G General] oblivion0:
Oh how I love sending these videos to iFanBoy friends. :]
[EVO 4G General] sfox8:
I agree with the sentiments about screen size. I gave my mom my old Hero and had to help her get Google Navigation to work. I was sitting there thinking how did I ever use this?! It's so small I can't believe I actually used this thing to navigate in the car!

And after playing around with my cousin's iPhone 4, as sharp as it is, it's just too small (and you really cant see a difference in sharpness at normal viewing length anyway). And yes, the iPhone 4 screen actually is a little bit smaller than the 3GS.

Is it possible to assign another button to take the picture other than the trackball button? would really love it if we could use for e.g the volume buttons to take the pictures, it would make it so much easier.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
If it helps, you can also take pictures by pressing down on the screen.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clownage:
thanks that helps but would really like the volume buttons to be able to take the photo, i hope someone can make this happen in the future :(
[HD2 General] carllam11:
First of all, I must say that this xda-developers forum is a truly great place for information and help. I have already extracted enough information here to make my htc hd2 vastly enjoyable. Thanks to you all.

I am new to winmo, and right now I have a nagging problem:

I am using the tmobile htc hd2 with the latest rom.

I installed sunglobe.cab. So I can display chinese characters in most apps and web sites fine.

I also installed a chinese beta ime from qq, and used it to send chinese text messages and emails.

The chinese characters displayed fine when I type and send on my hd2. But upon receiving it, the display is garbage characters or simply ????.

If I send a chinese email from the hd2 to my email account on PC, I can display it fine. However, if I send a chinese email from PC to the hd2, the hd2 cannot display it properly.

I read from the forum that sunglobe.cab allows the sms text to display chinese characters, but I just can't get it to display on mine. :confused:

Please help!

Thanks a lot in advance.
[HD2 General] BumAround:
Hey, check THIS thread out over at the HD2 ROM Development.
[HD2 General] carllam11:
Wow thanks

For the quick reference. I will check it out.
[Desire General] Jaa-Yoo:
How do i do this? :o

Im on vacation in vancouver, 4 hours difference from my home location. I cant find any way short of changing the default home time through settings. On winmo sence ui, i was able to click the clock icon and simply choose a new location, i cant do that on the desire.

Thanks
[Desire General] Jaa-Yoo:
Anyone? :o
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Have you tried changing the 'Set Time Zone' setting in Menu > Settings > Date & time? Uncheck Automatic and manually set the time zone.

Also check out the 'TimeZone' app from the Marketplace.
[Desire General] Jaa-Yoo:
Thanks Mas, i was trying to avoid doing it those ways because i thought there may have been a very simple way to switch between 2 time zones (home and visiting). It can be done in wimo sense ui but ive just found out that this is a feature of wimo and sense is just overlayed. I'll just change the time zone through settings. Thanks :)
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Yah, WM has this feature and seems somewhat overlooked with Sense UI on Android. Maybe there is some type of app that will allow you to achieve the same thing with a different clock widget?

I will report back here if i can find something similar.
[HD2 General] praveenkv1988:
Hi,

Currently I have Energy ROM installed. It has the basic facebook application. How can I install the latest facebook application from microsoft so that it replaces what I have now. Also, I need the MS facebook application to be in the home slider tab.
[HD2 General] spencer911:
I downloaded mine from the MS marketplace and it installed over what I have for the home slider app there is a cab floating around the forum just search for it.
[HD2 General] praveenkv1988:
Searching. Not able to find it. Can anybody give the link?

If you get double facebook icons you can always delete one of the icons with total commander.
[HD2 General] praveenkv1988:
After install, it didnt change the facebook application on the slider.
[HD2 General] ddgarcia05:
Did you change it yourself like it shows in the video?
[HD2 General] mohankrishna:
Facebook from microsoft is different from the facebook shown in the manila(sense).

manila version comes with the minimal functionality and UI. if you click on something it will try to open the Facebook on your default browser.
[HD2 General] praveenkv1988:
All I want to do is to change the facebook in manila with the microsoft facebook
[HD2 General] Dracothearies:
Same...

I have Enery Titanium installed... when i download the .cab file, instead of using the app like it did on shipped rom, it opens facebook in opera. I would like to use the new facebook app that microsoft put out.

[Droid Incredible General] x1208x:
no he works for them, he is trying to get people to use the trial so that they will buy it after it expires. Because he knows a lot of people come back to xda to check to see if their is an easier way to root for unrooted incredibles. I don't think this belongs in the development. if anything it should be in the app section.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alias_neo:
I was using my 16GB with fat32 - rest/ext3-512MB/swap-64MB.

I was previously running the stock recovery that came with unrevoked and it would not nandroid to my 16GB card but worked with a 4GB. I wasn't sure if it was the partitioning or the size.

I have now changed my layout (using Gparted in Linux) to fat32-rest/ext3-512MB. I have just installed the ported AmonRA 1.7.0.? from the Dev forum here, that one also won't backup my NAND nor NAND+EXT. Does anybody know if there is a solution? Do I need different partitions types, sizes, order? Different recovery that will support it?

Anything appreciated, thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A|ex:
I am not too sure which order you did it in but the order you wrote them from left to right is correct.

fat32

ext

swap

There are no specific size limits but the common setup is 512MB or more for ext, 32MB / 64MB for swap andfat32 is whatever. When i created the paritions on mine i did it via command line and followed on each partition so there was non break or space.

I had issues with apps2sd and nand backup due to me initially messing up partition order and sizes.

2. Go to menu click 'Add Call' and call the other number

3. Merge the two

Is it not possible to put someone who is calling me on conference if I am already on a call?

[Windows Mobile Software Development] kkroo:
I really want to port a small tool to be able to run my magic jack on my HD2. There is a really small and simple tool called MJMD5 that allows you to use your magicjack with any SIP client.

I have the source code for linux, possibly it can be compiled using cygwin for the HD2?

ftp://ftp.bauer-power.net/misc/magicjack/mjproxy.c.tgz

Also, there is a tool that works with windows, but there is a incompatibility with the GUI that isnt allowing it to run on my HD2, a small tweak should fix it.

ftp://ftp.bauer-power.net/misc/magicjack/MJMD5.zip

I am completely new to mobile software development so I hope someone could help me get this working!

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kkroo:
Is nobody willing to even put me in the right direction?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] zzxq:
The source code is for a linux console app; you can't port that easily to WM GUI. You'd need the source code of the Windows exe. To my knowledge, there is no Cygwin version for WinCE yet, or were you referring to cegcc?! It could probably be ported as a console app anyway, but I assume that you want the GUI.

And using a console on the HD2 is somewhat problematic, as the OS has console debug output. I would not recommend that for user programs.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kkroo:
Yeah, I am referring to cegcc. I am not too concerned about the GUI, I just need the functionality, and this program doesnt really need a console, but just needs to be run with certain parameters which is possible with WinCE. So, does anyone know how to compile it for windows mobile?

I appreciate any help.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] zzxq:
OK; I'm reasonably sure that it can be ported with either cegcc or celib. I'd probably do it with celib. I have adapted celib to work with PocketConsole. I just tested my port of perl 5.8.8 on the HD2, and socket/internet functionality seems OK.

About the Windows exe, it appears to be a .NET assembly. But it may not run on Windows Mobile because it is for the desktop Framework, and not the Compact Framework. .NET assemblies can be decompiled, however. Maybe that can help you too.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] zzxq:
I don't have this MagicJack, but from what I read about it on the internet, I doubt that it can be used with Windows CE at all if you want to plug it into the HD2 directly, and the USB connector may be different as well. I don't know if that's what you want. Depending on how it communicates with its host, you may even need a driver for it. I think that the HD2 has USB OTG, but it may still not work without a driver. I would find that out first.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kkroo:
In terms of recompiling it, I am pretty sure it will work. Sorry but I am a bit of a novice at this, but how would I do either compiling option?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Software Development] zzxq:
I would use Dis# for decompiling; I just tried to decompile the exe, and that seemed to succeed. No guarantees though; not at all tested. You can have Dis# put the source files and project files in a subdirectory. Then I'd use VS2008 for compiling.

A quick test showed that the IniFile class of this program imports unmanaged functions from kernel32, which is not present on WM. The functions are GetPrivateProfileString and WritePrivateProfileString. I don't think that coredll has them, so porting would probably not be easy. This is a known porting issue; not very severe, but it's only the start. I think that ini files are regarded as legacy by Microsoft. The registry is used for settings.

The most logical thing would seem to me to contact the developer to write a CE version if the device works with generic CE USB drivers. And then you'd still have the connector problem, and possibly even an incompatible interface; I don't know how HTC implemented the USB port. This is assuming that you want to plug it into the HD2 directly. You are not clear about that, so I can't be more specific either.

[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] larryccf:
a followup to an earlier post that might save others some frustraton and headaches

i had ordered a 16GB Sandisk Ultra class 4 card from KomputerBuy on amazon (Sandisk lists amazon as an authorized dealer or "a where to buy" dealer).

Their product descript showed a pix of a class 4 card - what arrived was class 2, but a different product number as the one showing class 4.

Called sandisk to see what they'd say, and the CSR did a fancy deflective word dance telling me that what the class numbers meant yada yada, but it was surreal, he would never answer directly the question "okay, are you telling me that the NEW class 2 cards are the same read/write speeds as a class 4?". and during the conversation he did ask who the vendor was, and i identified KomputerBuy and he confirmed they were an authorized vendor.

but i left that conversation looking for an aspirin bottle

contacted komputerbuy, and as someone else described, komputerbuy emailed me back responding that "sandisk had a problem earlier with stenciling the wrong class number on their cards".

I took issue with that indicating: 1) customers should be advised of this BEFORE they've processed the order, 2) that description does not reconcile with the fact that the product ordered and the product received had different model numbers, so there was an unauthorized subsitution and 3) when i tested the write speeds, it was approximately 1/3rd slower than class 4s (ie write spd was 5.1MB a second)

now i'm dealing with their attempt to charge me "shipping and handling charges".

i went out and found an 8GB class 4 card at MacMall (also a Sandisk recommended dealer) - i actually called them, asked them to confirm it was a class 4 card, salesman went and picked it up, had it in his hand and said "yes, it's a class 4"

price was suspiciously low ($27) considering the memory card shortage that apparently exists in the industry

well, it came in today - its a class 2 as well

this time, the model number on the card is the same as the one on their website, so there was no product substitution, but having a second seller describe it as class 4 ("in his hand") coupled with Sandisk's deflective obsfuscating answer, tells me there's a shortage of class 4 sandisk mem cards, and sandisk is coordinating, suggesting, motivating sellers to distort product descriptions to move class 2 cards out.

personally, i still want a sandisk card, but will now buy it in a store, with the frigging card in hand

in case anyone thinks i'm smoking home rolled cigarettes, i've got some shots posted at http://s816.photobucket.com/albums/zz81/vze86qtl/8GB Sandisk class 2/, including a shot of the unopened packaging, a closeup of the card, a shot of the pkging model number and a copy of the vendor's web description

as an aside, newegg.com, who i trust (bought quite a bit from them), on their web indicate 10/22/2010 for expected delivery of 16GB Ultra cards (there's no guarantee they'll be class 4, but hopefully)
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] MAJED.y:
If you look here Got Sandisk ultra 16GB Class 2 instead of class 4!!.

The same thing happened to me, i returned the product and got the full refund, and picked another one with the "SDSDQY-016G-A11M" from amazon itself to be sure, good it's really (4) with the same serial but tagged at the back of package "Class 2" here was i think the truth about what KomputerBuy told me "Sandisk misprinted the class number"!. okay missing one tag not all the product with class 2 tags from the card it self to the serial and the package!!

the fact was the card with "E11M" is Class 2 not 4.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] larryccf:
so you have received the new one, and it is stenciled as a class 4 on the card itself?

have you tested it on write speeds? -
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] MAJED.y:
I returned it, and buy another one, from Amazon direct with the code "A11M" (4).

And yes I tested the write speed and it was 14~ 15MB and 19~20MB in read using crystal disk mark.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] 1stLaffer:
Interesting.......... from wiki.......

The following are the ratings of some currently available cards:

Class 2: 2 MB/s

Class 4: 4 MB/s

Class 6: 6 MB/s

Class 10: 10 MB/s

I have a class 4 (but it is just a generic/no brand one) and it matches the 4MB/s.

Do really get those speeds? If so I may stump up the cash for 'premium' brand.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Tehpriest:
If it is of any use I have attached a program that I use to rest with. Best done on a new card with no DATA or an old one with data backed up and card wiped. It will verify size and speed. As with anything please run this through your virus checkers first although mine have shown it to be clean and I have used it successfully myself. No install just save to desktop and double click.K.
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] Qazz~:
I think wiki is wrong, as I know that the fastest sd card (class 10), is the same speed as the slowest compact flash cards used in cameras which is 30mbs
[Galaxy S I9000 Accessories] PhoenixFx:
Quoting Sandisk:

source : http://www.sandisk.com/Assets/File/pdf/retail/SDHC1.pdf

Technically speaking you are getting Class 4 speeds, but having said that, my Sandisk Class 2 , 16GB card can reach write speeds of up to 10MB/s when copying files over USB. I just tested by copying a 600MB movie using a micro SD card adaptor, it took 58 seconds meaning an average speed of 10.34MB/s. Read speed is around 17MB/s. I bought this card last year. Don't have the packaging anymore, so cant confirm the product code.

EDIT: I also have a spare Class 2, 8GB Card which i got bundled with my Previous Nokia 5800, Not sure who the original manufacturer is, because it only says Nokia 8GB Class 2. Did the same test and got 5.2MB/s write and 12MB/s read speeds. I'm not sure about the exact speed ratings, Sandisk and many others web sites say Class number corresponds to the minimum sustained write speed, maybe if I copy a combination of large and small files filling up the entire disk , I might get lower write speeds. but right now I get more than dowuble of what the minimum guaranteed write speed. Perhaps the key point here is not the average or maximum speed, rather the Minimum sustained write speed, which means at no time it should drop below the specified speed (which might cause problems for apps like video recording) but I can't find any official documentation specifying the average or maximum write / read speeds...

I installed Extended controls and im sure it was around this sort of time it happened, but i looked up and see that the G symbol ive had for the passes 3-4 days had disappeared, i thought this wasa good thing and result of a button to switch data off, but can only find GPS button and switching that doesnt effect anything on the screen

obviously without this i cant get online on my phone so any quick help would be appreciated!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dakine:
Extended controls does have an option to make a switch for that, try making a switch widget for data connection and then flip it?

data connection, ok thanks. i restarted phone and got it enabled back. Where in the standard options and settings for android is this located then? pretty good feature to save power when i dont want my phone checking or updating itself?

EDIT:

this button on extended controls doesnt work for me, and enabling it loses my internet connectivity and i cant get it back on, fail.
