Hi all ...

This is my first post here and I like the whole idea of custom roms etc.

My question is the Phone button behaviour which is rather anoying, for sometime

I find myself dialing someone by mistake!

What I would like to happen is rather view the contact first and see all the

options (like phone no, e-mail addrress etc) first and decide if I want to phone, e-mail the contact instead of the dial being the default option.

I hope this makes sense, as I think there are many people who have this issue with the Phone (Dial) button ;-)

Thanks.

hi im new to HTC HD2, i have the australian version which im guessing is the europe version, i was wondering when i try and install a rom wheather i have to change the name of the ruu_signed.nbh file, ive watched all the youtube videos i could and on some of them i have seen the named changed to LEO.... so im sort of stuck, any help would be appreciated cheers frank:confused::confused::confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
only need to change name when using sd card to flash.

By 'australian version' do you mean telstra version? which isn't the euro version, but roms work the same.

1 - run hspl3

2 - choose 2.08.hspl (not 2.08.0000)

Once you have applied hspl, you dont need to do it again.

3 - flash your rom.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frank1308:
thanx champ, not sure if its a telstra version, ive bought an unlocked 1 from ebay, just doing all the research i can before it gets here, ive flashed fones before i had an LG Veiwty use to flash the **** out of it, ive downloaded about 6 roms im gunna go with the kumar rom 1st i think, ive got all the stuff i need HSPL ect, just wasnt sure about the rom name

Also what radio should i go with if it is a telstra version i know theres alot of choices any help appreciated cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pongskie:
Just do HSPL first. Then follow the instructions on the threads of the roms that you want to try. You'll never get lost mate. Goodluck to your flashing!;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
radios are hardware independant, doesnt matter which you flash UNLESS you happen to get a tmous (t mobile usa) hd2. You can tell if it is a tmous, because it says t mobile beneath the earpiece. If it DOES say t mobile there, then you need to be careful what radio you flash.

Do you know if there is a application that can allow us to change our desire's MAC address?

I know it can be done on the Hero through fastboot, but as there is no unlocked boot loader for the Desire it's not possible.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daelyn:
Which MAC address?

The WiFi MAC address

should

be accessible through ifconfig just as any other *nix derivative. Try it, but you need the ifconfig binary first. I found the ifconfig/iwconfig etc binaries compiled for android somewhere and they work as they are supposed to via terminal emulator.

HTC Sense

First of all I would like to thank for your new ROM. I don't see any new ROM for a while. I come to check forum every week. I have one more question about HTC Sense. Can we install in this ROM. I saw it in almost very new device. But I don't know how to install in HTC Advantage X7510. Could you please advice how to do? Thank again.
[Advantage X7510 General] Vico100:
Thnxs for your coment :)

Unfortunately HTC Sense only works on the Android operating system.
[Advantage X7510 General] Liebertkind:
thanks...

can you put a 1% increment driver in this ROM?
[Advantage X7510 General] Vico100:
What do you mean? what is that for?

If you mean the battery, the dll has 1% increment icons in it.
[Advantage X7510 General] Liebertkind:
I can only see 10% battery increment in the status bar, how can I change it to 1%?
[Advantage X7510 General] 456654:
Hi Vico,

first of all thanks for your work.

Release is fast but:

- Screen is not to rotate, neither with GSEN nor with Gyrator

- no chance to work with REALVGA (showthread.php?t=327830)

Damn... - I really wanted your ROM :mad:
[Advantage X7510 General] Vico100:
Thnxs, yea unfortunatly I can't do much about third party software.
[Advantage X7510 General] Liebertkind:
Hi

Why can i not see the % in 1 but only in 10? please help !!
[Advantage X7510 General] Vico100:
Because there is not modded battery driver. I don't know how to do it either.

Ive attached the stock dll

here

so it just has to be modded now.
[Advantage X7510 General] ThePaytonTeam:
hi Vico,

is there a fix for the x button to really close programs. i've searched the forum and can't seem to find anything related.
[Advantage X7510 General] Vico100:
Xtask works well, just adjust settings.
[Advantage X7510 General] peppi.nl:
You can also use: (close running programs with the q menu)

QuickMenu V2.8.410.1610.CAB from this topic

You can place the Q button in the middle of the screen. (tab view, 'show q on taskbar')

Woks very well on this release.

Oh, and disable the battery icon or you will be having two of them.
[Advantage X7510 General] rjstep3:
thanks so much for this Vico - very easy to load, and a pleasure to see WM 6.5 on the x7510.

I am getting a lot of out of memory messages - especially with voice command which tells me every time I boot that there is not enough memory. Actually, there is tons of memory.

Anyway, why are you including voice command, which I think is the single most irritating program ever invented? I never use it, please leave it out especially if it is going to cause so many problems.

rjstep3
[Advantage X7510 General] Vico100:
You can disable it, just go to settings and untick it, then soft reset
[Advantage X7510 General] rjstep3:
another question this time concerning the keyboard.

I am trying to type using the keyboard. But a strip comes up at the bottom of the screen trying to guess the words I am typing. More to the point, the keys do not work as they should - so Shift calls up the account picker, Fn doesn't work with the number keys to produce symbols, but pressing CAPS does produce 4 pages of symbols.

How can I turn this off and revert to just the vanilla keyboard without the added "help"?

rjstep3

BTW this is a great ROM, I am really enjoying the more finger friendly 6.5 on this big screen. Keep up the good work!
[Advantage X7510 General] peppi.nl:
Weird stuff. I had that problem on the very early 6.5 releases.

The origin of the problem was:

There has been a topic about how to fix this problem. (xtep's solution on the second post is the easiest)

September? Not that far off. I already have an HD2 which works like a charm so I only want it as a new toy. I'm not desperate to have it now.

No kidding!? :rolleyes: I don't want to pay for it. That's the whole point of a contract - you get the phone for free.
[Streak 5 Accessories] flumps:
erm.....no

it may seem free but infact the price you pay for your contract and the length of said contact includes the cost of the handset.

i brought my streak from dell. i get unlimited everything on a month by month contract for £15 p/m. which means i can cancel at any time. if your locked into a 18month "free phone" contract and decide to leave you have to pay the remainder of the contract plus the cost of the handset. you end up paying allot more in the long run with one of those contracts
[Streak 5 Accessories] Ruudfood:
That's if you decide to leave. I won't be leaving.

Plus at £20/m for 18 months which is what I currently pay it'll still work out cheaper for me at £360. Now compare that to your £450 plus £15/m for 18 months and I'm winning. :p

Hi there,

I have two questions concerning Android:

1. Is it possible to partition a, let's say 16GB sd card, into two of 8GB each? So that one I can use for WM and one for Android?

In this context, my second question: Where does Android, if I start it with HaRET, the apps save when I download apps from the store? Does this information interfere with Windows Mobile if it is not saved separately?

Thank you a lot!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] aussiebum:
Kind of. If you look around the other android device forums, you'll see stuff mentioning "Apps2SD". This basically is a 600mb ext2 linux partition where all your apps would be installed (haven't bothered but will probably do this next!).... an absolute must for 2.1 Eclair users, less so for 2.2 Froyo rom users since there's an "official" App2SD solution. Don't think there's a specific way to separate the two yet.

Any apps you are currently installing in Android are getting written into the data.img file.

Finally, if a Mod is looking at this thread, can we have a "HD2 Android General" forum for Android-HD2 specific questions? This Dev thread is getting messy.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lamajstro:

I have an orange network locked hero. After getting tired of waiting I attempted to debrand by installing the generic HTC rom ...

RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver

With the idea of installing and letting the OTA update occur...

So i installed goldcard tool created and image. and then installed the htc image.

2.1 is now installed but have the network locked message.

I considered trying to unlock via one of the vendors on ebay, but decided it probably wouldnt work so decided to roll back to the orange rom.

By mistake I ran this update which i believe is the HTC 2.1 update

RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_3.32.405.1_R_Radio_63.18.55.06P_6.35.15.11_release_signed

Now when i try an run the orange uk 2.73.61.66 release I am getting an error message 140 bootloader version error.

The phone isnt rooted, is there any way I can roll back or unlock 2.1. Am i going to have to call orange an confess?

Is there some kind of cvar/mod/hack/.. to change the default orientation from portait to landscape?

In AOSP only ofc.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m0jo:
no ideas about that? :/
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
You could try putting your phone into landscape then turning orientation off.

That is the only easy way I know of to keep it that way, if you use a widget then you can easily turn it back on when you want to change back.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m0jo:
it goes back to porttrait immediately when disabling auto-rotate. (via a homescreen widget)

any further ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m0jo:
shouldnt there be a way to do so since the motorola droid has everything in landscape when hw-keyboard is open?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m0jo:
can some dev please give his opinion on this please? :o
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
just wanted to add that after trying landscape mode for a while, I think it would be annoying as the default or only layout option since it requires two hands pretty much for even the most simple use.

portrait allows thumb (if you're talented) or index finger (if you're flexible) single handed tapping usage.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m0jo:
i prefer landscape mode in all situations. i always hold my hero sideways but dont want to wait like 2 sec for it to turn around.

so again, is there a way for doing this?
