Hi, I'm on the same network and on the Text and Web simplicity tariff. Here is what I did. The Windows mobile version I'm using is wm6.5.x, with the start menu at the bottom left.

To enter the settings first click "start", then click "setting", then "connections".

First click manage existing connections, and delete the modem connection specified in here. (Not required but advised) As this is configured by the device and the setting are incorrect.

Next go back a step. Then click add new modem connection.

“Select a Modem” should be set for “Cellular Line (GPRS)” or “Cellular Line GPRS/3G”

Now click “Next” to start inputting the operator specific settings.

Name the connection: O2 (PAYG)

Access Point Name (PAYG): payandgo.o2.co.uk

Username (PAYG) payandgo

Password: password

Tap “Advanced” and make sure both tabs have selected “Use Server Assigned IP Address”

Tap “Finish” then Tap “Proxy Settings”.

Select “This network connects to the Internet” and “ This network connects to a proxy server…”

Tap “Advanced” then WAP. Server address is: 193.113.200.195: Port 9201. Tap OK

Tap Socks: Server is 193.113.200.195: Port 1080. Type: Socks 4.

I can confirm these settings work as I use the internet everyday on my Touch Pro. Hope this helps. :) If you struggle pm me.

tryin to flash DC 3.2 and its stuck in an endless boot loop (getting stuck on the htc EVO 4g screen). any suggestions??? TIA
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youngdhillon:
This is most likely caused by a not unlocked nand...did you root sucessfully prior to flashing the rom?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twerk:
Same thing happened to me when I tried to install DC without nand being unlocked. Damage control was too finicky for me even when I got it working.

I am running cm nightly now and am very happy.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herbthehammer:
When that happened to me in the past, I was told that I needed to wipe the phone, clear out the cache and dalvik cache, then flash. Our it could be a bad flash (doubtful). I had the danger thing happen on the evo with the joeykrim rom. It boot looped, even though I wiped and cleared all the caches. I dunno other than that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spencelk:
Nand is unlocked I have a few Nand backups. I've cleared everything and it still happens I've use recovery mgr and just doing it myself in clockwork recovery....

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
When I use Rom mgr to flash that recovery it says it works then when I try to reboot to the recovery Im right back in clockwork NOT ra. I've tried to manually (use of terminal app) flash ra recovery but like others it says image/file not found....

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bielinsk:
As indicated in his thread, clockwork does not play nice with DC.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spencelk:
I understood it doesn't play nice with clockwork, but at the time I was unable to get ra on my phone clockwork kept booting. I was able to get ra using the start over method, I think the real problem was with my version of hboot since that's the only variable that has changed.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Plantje:
Since I have installed the latest official ROM every now and then my TP2 gets stuck. It keeps on displaying the screen that was on it when it got stuck (sometimes it is black, because I wasn't using the device when it got stuck). The only thing left is to pull out the battery.

What could be the cause? Are more people experiencing this issue?

I have the latest version of the Dutch HTC ROM and no other programms installed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Doktor.O:
Same phenomenon on my stock machine (no tweaks, no fancy ROM) that gets stuck every now and then...

Maybe too much files in the '/windows' directory ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Toolmaker:
Interestingly enough, I am having the same issue with this. I had a problem with disappearing text messages in the past and HTC urged me to downgrade to the previous ROM version, which resulted in a non-functional GPS unit for me.

I recently discovered there was a patch for the SMS problem, upgraded and applied the patch. I discovered that the phone will grind to a halt when you have a large amount of text messages in your inbox. Removing most of the messages will speed up the phone, but will not really solve the issues with the hang up.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Plantje:
I'll try to have less sms messages and see if that works.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ultramag69:
Or go into the sms settings and save them to the sd card.... If you do a hard reset though you might not be able to access them...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] monomer888:
It's probably your SD card causing the problems, especially if it's HTC Sense that's causing your phone to get 'stuck'.

On custom ROMs we advise people to delete the Application Data directory on the SD card. Old files from a previous ROM seem to mess up Sense on the new ROM.

If that doesn't work, try removing the SD card completely. If the trouble is the SD card, you could also move the files off the card, reformat the card, and then replace the files.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] pToolman:
My TP2 locks up as described in this thread after the ROM flash. About 3weeks ago, I disabled the tabs "Weather", and "Twitter" in HTC Sense and the problem seem to have disappeared. Then yesterday I re-enabled the Twitter tab and the phone locked up last night when it was in standby. No response when pressing power button or anything. Had to soft-reset to bring it back to life.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Plantje:
I have already disabled Twitter. Still sometimes the issue :(

Perhaps it is still some files on the SD card which are causing problems.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cgonzgo:
I had been having this problem for weeks as well, I emptied all my old texts and it is working fine now....
[HD Mini General] Plantje:
My girlfriend has a HTC HD Mini. Every now and then the device gets stuck. Sometimes in the middle of a phone call. Sometimes just when it is lying around.

While in a phone call she can still call, but nothing further!

She has the original dutch HTC ROM installed and no other programms.

The only thing left to do in those cases is to pull out the battery.

Any ideas?
[HD Mini General] bart3385:
What version is your ROM? Have you tried checking for updated ROM for you country in HTC site?

I don't know the exact version. But I just checked the website and the last one I have installed is the last one that is on the website.
[Vibrant General] Homotechual:
So I just noticed there is no calendar or music widget? What do you use or is there a way to get them?

Sent from my Samsung Vibrant.
[Vibrant General] vud911:
You get them the same way you get other stuff you don't have. You get them off the Internet/Android Market.

I use MusicMod for my music widget. I don't use calendars so perhaps someone else can help you there.
[Vibrant General] disturkis4u:
I don't use a music one because it's built in to the lockscreen if I'm listening to something. For calendar I use android agenda widget
[Vibrant General] the3dman:
Here is the stock 2.1 music player with widget. Just transfer the apk to your sd and install.
[Vibrant General] romanonly:
I use the widget on the lock screen. Why clutter up your home screen + waste resources when there's one already built in to the lock screen?

Another great option is "cubed" in the market. Best player IMO, but there's nothing wrong with the stock one.

Calendar widget, I don't know. Never really thought about it! I agree, it should have one built in.
[Vibrant General] All~G1:
For a good calender widget find "jorte" has tons of options.

Catchin' the VIBE on the XDApp
[Vibrant General] theanalyst:
The daily briefing can be used as a calendar widget if you use google calendar.
[Vibrant General] ultra spikey:
How do you get the music widget on the lock screen?
[Vibrant General] Broken:
Pure Music Widget and Pure Grid Calendar are both great! Pure Grid is like the HTC Sense calendar.
[Vibrant General] the3dman:
It should come stock on the vibrant open your music player and start playing a song then when you lock the screen it will be on the lock screen when you go to unlock it.
[Vibrant General] ntellegence:
I also use the controller in the lock screen. Instead of a widget they put the quick controls in the notification put-down. You just have to open the music player initially.
[Vibrant General] scmurphy13:
I use the Calendar Clock widget. It's ok.
[Vibrant General] Dallasalien:
doubleTwist is a good player and has a widget.
[Vibrant General] southpaw773:
when my phone is unlocked i drag down the notifications panel when music is playing and there are music controls. also in lock screen mode you can drag down a little window pane while locked with music controls (phone remains locked).
[Vibrant General] Wolfhound.exe:
The player in the notification menu while the phone is locked is no good for people who like to lock their phone with a pattern. doubleTwist has a good widget, but only pause and skip forwards buttons, no skip back. And I have as yet been unable to make the widget background transparent...

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] futureshock:
Hi there,

i had the idea of using the internal ROM as a "ROMDisk" (ramdisk) like to mock a SD Card...

so it should be possible to have the fullspeed of the ROM and don't need to hassle with the problem of driver lack if there should be anytime a solution to boot/flash directly to NAND ?!

i searched the Internet and also xda-devs and didn't found something similar before...

just found a normal WinCe Ramdisk (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=382944) but that didn't really do the job what we want... (just RAM to ROM and didn't show up as SD as well...)

what are you thinking of this?!

Devs ?! maybe any solution already i missed?!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Beefheart:
It would need to work at hardware level so this is a non-starter. There is no point in having an application in WM that makes the internal nand appear as a memory stick as it would be killed, along with the rest of the services and applications, as soon as haret is executed to boot Android.

[Desire Themes and Apps] bwfcmadlad:
Just wanted to know what your opinions are on goggles as a business card reading tool. I have read some great reviews about it yet i have tried at least 6-7 different cards and not once has it picked up all of the contact details on it. Has anyone got any advice or tips that might help with the accuracy?

Also, does anyone know how to add a contact field to someone for their personal website address? All i can do so far is put it in the notes section

Thanks in advance guys :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] Tiznom:
For your second question, it looks like you have to do it from a computer. I've added contacts' home pages, and for those I have the option to edit it. For contacts with no website, there is no option using the phone to add or edit one. Looks like you have to do it when logged in to Gmail on your desktop.

Your first question surprised me. Every day I learn something new that I can do with the phone, and that's another one. I knew that I could scan stuff with Goggles, but it never occurred to me to scan a business card. Cool. I use QR codes on the back of mine to make it easier. They work perfectly, but most people I meet don't have them or know what they are. There are a bunch of (paid) business card readers in the market but I bet they do no better than the free Goggles app. All I can suggest is get good lighting for the picture, and if that fails snap a photo to enter it in manually later. OCR still has a long way to go.
[Desire Themes and Apps] bwfcmadlad:
that makes complete sense and thanks for taking the time to produce such a comprehensive answer. :D
[Desire Themes and Apps] jnoam:
Well, I ran several (~30) read tests with the Goggles. I use business card reading quite frequently, both using an OCR program on my PC and using BCR on WinMo phone. Both these solutions do infinitely better than Goggles. Google's product would frequently fail in the OCR process (which can be due to the phone's camera or the business card quality) but it really pisses you off when it recognizes all the words correctly including weird names (I work in the far east sometimes and there are names you can't read in my phonebook) but has no idea that email:xxx@sss.com should go in the "mail" field, and it misses most if not all of the fields in all the cards I used it on. bottom line: useless.
[Desire Themes and Apps] patrickq:
Google Googles vs specialized card scanner

I can't speak on behalf of Google but I believe their intention with Goggles is not necessarily to invest heavily in deep functionality around business cards but rather to provide broad, generally useful analysis of images and as they often do, leave it to others in the ecosystem to provide more elaborate apps.

We are the authors of one such scanning app - scanbizcards - and I can attest that there is a ton of code besides just recognize the characters, to correct OCR mistakes using the business context. Don't forget that a great business card scanner should do more than just scan & add to the address book. We certainly try to do that, providing 27 different features ...

Our app runs only on the iPhone right now, sorry - BUT we have started its port to Android so stay tuned ...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] chabun:
Hello guys

I like to show a notifaction (or a notifyIcon) like cell state or the battery state?

With the Notification class in the .net cf I could just send an info text to the user and it's shown like the battery state. And the OpenNETCF's NotifyIcon does just nothing on my HD2 or emulator.

I also like to have a button next to the state to provide fast access to my app (like the Comm Manager).

Thanks

i dont usually use my camera phone, but tried to use it yesterday and was extremely dissapointed in the zoom facility. didnt make much difference at all. my old omnia seemed to zoom in much further. am i stuck with this or has somone looked at a fix for this?

did a search but got loads of android stuff come up, which is useless to me.

Mike
[HD2 General] rp-x1:
Digital zoom is always poor, it just takes a snapshot of part of the picture and increases it's size - lowering the quality of the resultant image.
[HD2 General] tomksoft:
For zoomed pictures I prefer to use Canon EOD 5d Mark II with 300mm lens :)

HTC HD2 is a really great phone. Let me repeat - phone.

The camera it has can be good for taking pictures of business cards or for some augumented reality things, but not for anything more advanced.
[HD2 General] Chastiser:
yes, i understand it is a phone! however, the camera on my ole omnia zoomed in far more than the camera i have on the HD2 and wondered if there was some sort of tweak so that the zoom could be improved. do i need to repeat that? blimy ask a question and get sarcasm.

Mike
[HD2 General] markelmes:
Poor Camera zoom.

Mike,

I totally agree. The camera zoom only enables x1.6 on the zoom which in my opinion is pointless. Given as stated earlier its a phone and not a camera, i cant think of any phones out there with worse zoom capabilities!

If there any tweak headz out there that could maybe edit the phone for at least x3 zoom capability on the camera that would be blinding!

Someone Do it'...........Please!

Then it will say loading... pc36img.zip for about 30 seconds, then says checking pc36img.zip for another 30 and go to the menu with "fastboot, recovery, clear storage etc..."

i tried the toast 2, but can't seem to get past the mtd-eng.img part.'

here's what i get. First i Hold down the vol button and press power. once the phone starts, i scroll down to recovery and press power. in recovery it says "ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1" at the top and bottom of the screen. Now i open a command prompt on my computer and type in, "recovery-windows" the phone then goes into the android system recovery, and at the bottom says "Build : not set". From here i can open shell on the computer by typing "adb shell", but when i type in the first line "cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image" it returns "cat: can't open '/sdcard/flash_image': No such file or directory" but i can ls while in a shell and see the file in the data directory and i can cd to any directory. the flash_image file is in the data director, and i can change the permissions with 755, but cannot get past that part.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmanic:
OK... I don't really know how, but i was able to finally get it to see the PC36img.zip files. i pushed the flash_image to the /data directory, wiped everything and rebooted with the new PC36IMG file on the root. it asked if i wanted to update, and the rest is history...
