[Galaxy S I9000 General] terrorblind:
hi guys i need your help with my noob problem...

in some weird way my SGS isn't able to find my sim contacts even though they are there.. i can see all of them when i want to write an sms for example or when i punch in a phone number.. but the contact list is empty..

Ive tried to look in the settings to see if i aciddently unticked something.. but it seems that the phone/andriod doesnt have an option to switch between phone and sim card..IE im not able to point the phone to my sim contacts

This is my first android.. old htc diamond/nokia user :)

Anyone know how to solve this crazy problem :)

Thanks in advance

-TB-
[Galaxy S I9000 General] navmanyeah:
Open up your contact list and press the menu button > display options > tick SIM. It should show your sim contacts now.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] terrorblind:
Hi

Thanks for the reply

but i dont have the option to choose SIM, just phone, facebook and Gmail

[HD2 General] markjevans:
I have just purchased a HTC HD2 handset and was wondering how I can upgrade my Manilla Sense from 2.5.1921 to the latest version 2.5.2016.

Any links to such downloads with instructions would be great + any tips on pre-required additional installs.

My current phone setup is:

OS 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)

Manilla 2.5.19211619.0

ROM version 1.66.707.1 (76641) WWE

Radio Version 2.07.51.22_2

Protocal vesion 15.32.50.07U
[HD2 General] leewenxu:
Hi! I'm no expert but all I know is you cannot upgrade the manila version like any ordinary means. That means there's no CAB file to install for the upgrade or upgrade it online. The chefs usually cook take the latest ROM and take the necessary parts then cook it into a ROM. So it means you can only have the latest Manila by flashing the lastest ROM. :D
[HD2 General] morpheus1982:
Hi,

I am on the O2 1.72 ROM and my Manila version is 2.5.2012xxxx.0.

Just out of interest, what is in Manila 2.5.2016 that you require?
[HD2 General] markjevans:
I am just interrested in having the latest version of Manilla on my new shinny toy.

Do you have any links to ROM's that include the latest version of Manilla for the HD2 and any caution to advise.

Cheers,

Hello,

I would like to be adviced about the choice of a new mobile. At the moment, I got the K750i, it's a bit old and I would replace it soon.

That phone would be for a professional usage :

--> Wi-fi

--> Sync with Outlook / Gmail

--> Possibility to add lots of free apps

--> What is the best OS ? Windows Mobile or Androïd ?

Thank you :)

windows mobile =more apps!!!

android=less beauty,less apps,more games

or htc hd mini:o
[General Questions and Answers] ohyeahar:
I see from your previous posts that you have an HTC Touch 2. But it's just not responsible to recommend this device. The OP didn't mention he had a tight budget. That would be the only reason to get a Touch 2. It's WinMo and it's not even the best WinMo device.

The only WinMo devices worth getting is the HD2, Diamond2 and Touch Pro2.

But seriously, Android is the way to go...
[General Questions and Answers] agos123456:

i already know that touch 2 is not the best windows mobile phone......i just recommended the good things thath the phone has for some help....i never said that is the best windows mobile device

Asking what id the best OS will become hard to reply as it must be a matter of personal preferences.

On my opinion WM is far away better.

So I can recommend WM/HTC devices:

The best/fastest: Leo

The best with hardware keyboard: Rhodium

[Desire General] dave7802:
I am Running DeFrost,

And Yes its amazing!!

But a question that i cannot find a straight answer too,

Is there lack of Widgets for FroYo or is it the Firmware?

Or

Is it as simple as an App that needs downloading and installing and you gets your Widgets?

I miss just a couple of Widgets, One is my Emails

I had my Live and Gmail on 2 Different Pages on the Home Screen,

And Some Toggles, (Oh and the odd Clock)

Now i know i can do the Toggles easy with switch pro widget and extended controls widget

But what about my Email Widget :-(
[Desire General] benko286:

[Desire General] cq.dude:
Can someone explain to me how this "car mode" or "car home" app is supposed to work? Say, music for example. It's either mount your SD through USB, or plug in an auxiliary cable. Am I missing something here? It's not like on an iPod that u can plug in your USB and play music, right?
[Desire General] crozuk:
To my knowledge the car screen is simply a front end to allow easy access to apps when the phone is sat in an in car holder?
[Desire General] DanTehManUK:
I feel the same :D
[Desire General] jimlad:
Indeed, its a few apps you need with very big buttons :D
[Desire General] AndroHero:

[Desire General] crozuk:
Thanks, I'll stick it on my wallchart.
[Desire General] cq.dude:
hahaha I guess it will become useful when i get really old!

Seriously though, I asked cause there's also this "dock" setting in froyo. Something in the works, perhaps?
[Desire General] tifosi256:
Is car mode exclusively for Froyo? I'm still on a stock Desire. Is this something I will get with the OTA update or is it something to download from the Marketplace/HTC website?
[Desire General] crozuk:
Comes with froyo, is included in most custom froyo roms and will be in the official sense froyo which is coming any day now.
[Desire General] DaaT:
Funny, after today's update I haven't found it. Not looking hard enough maybe? :)
[Desire General] al89nut:
Nope, is an app and isn't there
[Desire General] DaaT:
There are several of the sort on the market, which do you guys recommend? Or is this one we're talking about a specific one?
[Desire General] sorch:
Isn't it designed for HTC's official car holder, due on the 22nd? I guess it only "activates" once you plug your phone into it.
[Desire General] DaaT:
I thought of that, but for it to be activated it has to be present, no? Unless it'll be a "surprise update" from HTC ;)
[Desire General] sorch:
Perhaps it only does so once you place the phone into the holder.

Is there a menu option in Settings? The leaked ROMs had this. (I'm not running today's release)
[Desire General] psycop:
I found something more

Add new item on the desktop - Shortcut - Settings

There you find different settings for Car Dock, Dock Settings, Unit admnistration settings

(Might not be called that, translated from danish)

So it seems that the application are there but hidden?
[Desire General] DaaT:
Good catch :)

It indeed seems that only when HTC's car holder becomes available will we see it. I guess I'll get one from the market. Any recomendations?
[Desire General] steve228uk:
Looks like you're right. One of the features of the dock is:

"Connects straight to the NaviPanel interface" which HTC describe as:

"Navipanel offers you a convenient, one-touch interface to Footprints, the Phone dialer, and the GPS navigation software when you are using the in-car holder with your phone. When you put your phone in the holder, NaviPanel automatically opens and lets you use these applications."
[Desire General] dirkr07:

[Desire General] aindow:
Having messed with the shortcuts myself it looks like you can set the phone to go in to car mode automatically when connected to a car kit via Bluetooth.

[Droid Incredible General] bagery77:
Re: Sorting Bookmarks

This will work for my needs. I was hoping maybe mine was just faulty as I dislike using apps for something the phone "should" be capable of doing. But yeah, I did buy the ad free app version. Thank you so much for your suggestion. :)
[Droid Incredible General] fiskadoro:
Yep... This bugged the heck out of me too, especially the way I had to re-sort every time I went into the browser. More annoying was the way it made the full-screen HTC Widget bookmark (which I love, and find is the best and quickest way to get to my favorite sites) always be ordered by most recently added too!

Thankful for Bookmarks S&B, it really solved the issue. Hoping any future Inc updates though will fix this issue. I did notice on the HTC EVO, which is pretty similar when it comes to browser and widgets, didn't exhibit the problem within the browser... if you sorted alphabetically it would stay like that, but it DID exhibit the issue within the widget.
[Droid Incredible General] SubMatrix:
My issue is related to this, but not exactly the same. I just recently got a replacement Incredible, and I want to transfer my bookmarks off my old Incredible to my new Incredible. I've tried to find where the bookmarks file is located via Astro but am unable to locate it. Do I need root to do this? Or am I just not looking in the right place? Any other alternatives?
[Droid Incredible General] bagery77:
Someone else will most likely chime in with something simpler. But the way I transferred my bookmarks from myTouch to Incredible was with Backup Pro. I backup everything I need on there, minus contacts.
[Droid Incredible General] krelvinaz:
I'd like to see the ability to create folders like, News, Sports, Technical and put bookmarks in them rather than just have a flat list of bookmarks.

Seems strange not to have what is a common feature in the browser.
[Droid Incredible General] bagery77:
SubMatrix, I didn't have any luck backing up my bookmarks with BookmarkSB Pro. It kept giving me an error. It would certainly be a cheaper alternative if it works. I couldn't find anything that says whether you have to be rooted or not.

As for sorting into folders or similar, I believe the solution for that is probably right around the corner. Bookmark-Tree may help something like that.

please help me.. :(

Try HP Official ROM
[Sable] EREZYAD:
try 2 go back 2 hp rom or clean 6.1 rom (clean= no 3part apps like TFLO3D..) and then take out your card

check if your device works better

if so try diffrent card &/or format it

if u get issues when the card is full then u may have a file on your card that will effect the os

also reinstalling the card good (in plase) may effect it's functionalty

if you only have issues with this one get a new card

if it is not the card u may want 2 check 3part apps that u use or even reffering attcment 2 your card using reg hack may effect the device

when u test the device always do it when it is "clean" with no 3part apps or reg hackes

only when u get it working try 2 reinstall your apps/reg hacks one by one so u will find ...

good luck

[HTC Excalibur] s_ivan10:
Hi guys,

Sorry for posting in this forum but I thought there might be some users who have upgraded from the original Dash and might be able to provide me with a solution.

So, is there any way to boost the in-call earpiece volume on the original Dash/HTC S620? I have set it to the highest possible level and I can barely hear the other party while I am having a call on the street. If I am in some quiet room, then it's quite acceptable but outside it's just a nightmare trying to understand what the other person is talking.

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:

[HTC Excalibur] s_ivan10:
Anyone? :confused:
[HTC Excalibur] Mr. Clown:
Did you search? :rolleyes:I just did a common search and found this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=426006

I hope that helps,
[HTC Excalibur] s_ivan10:
Of course, I searched, a lot actually. :)

I tried SetVolume - it can't boost the in-call volume more than what I am able to achieve with the JOGGR. And what I need is some sort of hack to allow boosting the earpiece volume (to a level above the max level available by default) so that I can hear the other person louder while having a call. Will SmartToolKit allow me to do so?

BTW, that topic is about the rear speaker volume.
[HTC Excalibur] s_ivan10:
So there is no way to do it, right?
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
Let me report an experience I had with another device I bought (KS20), but it may help you possibly as well. For that device I noticed that the sound was very low and when increasing volume it got distorted. After closely looking at the speaker (this device has only one speaker - of the normal "membrane" type) and removing the covering fabric from the top I saw the bare plastic membrane. It seemed that the copper coil part was burned (brownish look) and the whole membrane was set too much inwards to the magnet.

Looking closer I noticed that the brownish look did not come from burned copper insulation of the voice-coil, but - hold your breath - from rusted iron dust! This accumulated at the place of strongest magnetism and pushed the membrane inside. So the voice coil was out of the magnetic field and the volume was low. CRAZY!

Carefully removing the iron dust with applying adhesive tape on the membrane sticking to the iron dust the speaker was back to normal operation!

So it was possible that very fine iron dust (from the workplace of the previous owner) was attracted by the magnet in the speaker :-)

After discovering this I could better understand the poor condition of this (cheap) device.

Conclusion: If you are not hearing impaired and the volume is too low - consider the speaker broken and either repair it or replace it. The earpiece for the following HTC devices looks identical: Typhoon, Hurricane, Tornado and Excalibur.

Good luck :-)
[HTC Excalibur] s_ivan10:
OK, it's not the speaker. I just installed Fring, set it to use the earpiece for calls (not the rear speaker) and did a test call. I increased the volume to the max while having the Fring call and it is much much HIGHER than while making regular calls with volume on max.

So basically I now know it's possible to boost the earpiece volume much more than the default setting allows for regular cellular calls - I just have to figure out how Fring does it!

Any idea?
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
Are you not contradicting yourself?

- earpiece is the little speaker for the ear

- rear speaker is the one at the back for ringtone and handsfree

I don't use Fring, but I cannot remember that it can route to the earpiece.

Only solution:

1.) Hard-reset - then check, if that does not work

2.) Flash a shipped ROM and see if it works, if that does not work

-> your HW is somewhat weird/broken
[HTC Excalibur] s_ivan10:
Sorry I meant "(not the rear speaker)", I have corrected it now.

The problem is obviously software-related - if Fring can produce a volume much loader than while I am having normal calls with volume set to the max, then it's obviously some setting somewhere (in the registry?) that needs to be hacked for normal calls.

I will write in the Fring forums and hopefully some of its developers might share how they allow increasing the volume much more than the default max level that is available.

Thanks for your advices but, at least for now, I prefer not to flash the phone.
[HTC Excalibur] tobbbie:
Don't have a working Excalibur at hand, but all other OMAP 850 devices have a registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\AUDIOGAIN and lots of values below. This key is also common for many other HTC devices, so possibly search the forum for more info about it.
