[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] coolmarkoo:
google voice just routes calls that u dial from ur fone say you wana call your friend joe from gv so mines i have it set up to ask me every time i dial a number either to use google voice or not so after clicking joe i would click use gv then it will call a gv number to connect you with your friend joe and its complety free i have only had data service when i got my g1 and then deactivated it. and use my fone using wifi for free texting and i have never payed for texting since i have it blocked. check this website out and youtube for tutorial that explain how gv works. www.google.com/voice
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bangsters:
yup it routes it but not through data. i tried turning off my internet and gv still works. try it o yours and let me know if you can still use gv even without 3g or wifi. and please check your phone bill if you the call gets deducted from your minutes. from what i saw with with my tmobile usage, the gv calls show up.

thanks

EDIT:

I think i get what you mean by free... google voice in itself is free. but then it uses your phone's minutes. texting goes through your data plan (if you have unlimited data then it's free, if not it goes against your bandwidth usage). thanks again
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] coolmarkoo:
i dont have data plan all i have is wifi and i dont have any texting from tmobile either and my minutes is not effected by gv i basically use gv to call my friends that have at&t and thats only if i am conected to wifi other wise i have to use my tmobile minutes. when i try to make calls without wifi it tells me unable to connect. hope i helped

Is this possible? I hate how the taskbar looks in Sense. Is it possible to modify the taskbar in sense to look like one from Launcher Pro?

Unfortunately, I think Launcher Pro is choppy compared to Sense.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] lzlaxhacker:
You can change how the taskbar looks a little bit in Sense, but you can't modify it to replicate the functionality of the Launcher Pro taskbar.

FILES HAVE BEEN RE-UPLOADED WITH PROPER ICON FILES CONTAIN RESOLUTIONS FROM 256x256 to 16x16.

The files should also now work in XP, if they do not download the version posted by PsychoCemia here

Thanks for reminding me down8

Here are two icons I wipped up for my phone that I thought I would share.

This will change the drive icon and names in "My Computer".

These might not work in XP as they are 256x256 and PNG based .ico files.

If anyone wants these made for XP, send me a PM and Ill remake them for XP.

Each zip file contains an icon file and autorun.inf file. Unzip the contents of each zip and put the files in the appropriate drive on your phone. The next time you mount the drives on your computer the icons and drive names will be changed.

Drive name - Droid Internal

http://www.mediafire.com/file/dntcbn0k13iwhw9/internal icon.zip

Drive name - Droid SD

http://www.mediafire.com/file/suk4a7pxdwq2r6k/SdCard.zip

If you want to rename the drives to something different, you will need to edit the autorun.inf file in a text editor.

If anyone wants to change the icon itself I have uploaded the photoshop PSD file below.

I've been using a setup I made for my mac. I don't mean to hijack your thread, but I figured it would be helpful to put mine in the same thread.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] hurrpancakes:
That is pretty nifty. Thanks! Looks great
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ritalin:
No problem, thanks for the addition. Feel free to use the PSD of my files if you want to edit yours to show the internal and SD based storage on your HDD icon.

PS I know Linux uses PNG files for their icons, so people can just use the png images in the OP. What does Mac us for its icons? Is it a proprietary format?

EDIT- Guess I should have downloaded your file before asking the above question. :ºp

So do you HAVE to make the PNGs in each size for it to work on a Mac? I thought it would scale the 256x256 icon to what ever size is needed.

BTW if you would not mind, it might be helpful to write up a little walk through on whats needed to get the icons to display properly on a Mac in case any one wants to try their own. I know Google is our friend, but I like making this place friendly too.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ritalin:
Glad you like it. Try blowing the view size up, the icons can go up to 256x256. Then again you maybe like me and like to see space left on the drives.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bahnburner:
It really depends on how you're changing your icons, but it's usually a .icns file, but luckly OSX allows you to copy and paste icons from one file to another.

I'll update my icons with your internal/external icons as soon as I can. I've been busting my chops working on some MetaMorphs this evening. I'm finally done with those.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] subnormyle:
Very Cool, Thanks Man.

For some reason though, I can download all files but the internal zip.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] down8:

Unless hurrpancakes's screenshot is poorly compressed, I much prefer the Android icon I've got. I like the idea though.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] hurrpancakes:
Yeah, I have the icons at a smaller size, when you increase the size they're very nice looking.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] down8:
One needs to embed all sizes into the .ico file to get good visibility at all sizes. The icon I have is thus, and looks good from 16x16 to 256x256.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] m3ta1head:

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] PsychoCemia:
So, not to steal OP's thunder, but I went ahead and made the XP-compatible icons using his great template. Wasn't hard, but figured I'd save a couple people the trouble. Thanks again, OP! :cool:

Again, just extract each to the proper mounted drive. :cool:
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] m3ta1head:

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] SXUsr:
The Market, or search the forum and read other threads that were started asking what to do with your newly rooted phone.

thanks the lord my phone i freaking awesome now i got this apps called easytether for android my mobile broadband has the speed of 7.2 mbps wile my SE x10 has 144.2 mbps wen i connected to usb... wahhhhh so f....king very fast...
[XPERIA X10 General] saltorio:
PdaNET works very well as well. Was using it on my X10 before rooting and switching to Barnacle. Used it on my old WinMo-based iPAQ before that.

EasyTether Lite is available for free on the market. Otherwise, it's $9.99 for the full version. If you're proposing sharing the full version with people, that goes against forum rules and this thread should be deleted.
[XPERIA X10 General] junexyz:
?

Dude i haven't yet shared the apk!! Get it ..... O:-) ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] bcool15:
its giving me 4mbps MAX on att california, but u say u gettin 144mbps damn etisalat is fast
[XPERIA X10 General] sardelich:
hm...144 :D
[XPERIA X10 General] egzthunder1:
@junexyz

saltorio is correct. If you are willing to distribute the free version (also found in the Market) it is perfectly fine, but offering/requesting the distribution of a paid app (the full version) is considered warez and as such, it is strictly prohibited under XDA rules. If you will not upload the apk that you are offering in here, I can only assume that you are distributing the full version, and not uploading it to avoid getting caught.

I am closing this thread and will reopen it only if you are indeed trying to re-distribute the free version... with the author's consent.

Thread closed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] tubagod101:
I have an ATT Tilt 2, approx 7 months old. I was running the EnergyROM, but I forget which one. This morning, the battery died, I plugged it in too charge on my laptop. I got a dialog box that said the charging power was insufficient to run the device, and it turned itself off. I let it be for a while (hour or so) then tried to reboot. It would not respond to the power button, so I hit the red reset button with my stylus. It booted, but not successfully. The phone got caught in what I can only describe as a loop. It would start the boot animation, then fail. It would stay turned off for a few minutes, then spontaneously try to boot again.

I held down the reset button again........nothing. Power button.......nothing. So then I tried to wipe it, using my micro SD card. I was able to get the phone into bootloader mode, and told it to apply the update by pressing the volume key. However, it still loops, except now it goes into the bootloader, except there is an error message in the bootloader screen, buried under the text. FWIW I am using the Olinex HardSPL.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated

EDIT: This only happens when it is plugged in. When it is on battery, it is completely unresponsive. No power button, no reset button, nothing. All i get is the amber charge light
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rr5678:
That means the phone is NOT charging the battery. Did you try using another USB cable? If so, did you try another battery? If you tried that too and it still doesn't work, that may mean that the charging circuit is dead and you will have to either get that one repaired or get a new phone
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
Try charging it from the wall plug. Your laptop port is not putting out enough power. Let it charge until the green light comes on.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] star2gates:
Can the charging circuit be replaced? Can i repair it my self (buy parts on ebay)? Would you happen to know much will it cost to repair it from AT&T?

I'm sure I've missed this somewhere in my search, but no threads about this seem to really answer the question: what is a PRI and what does it do?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c0t0d0s2:
PRI = Product Release Instruction.

Ok, that basically means it controls specific CDMA configuration options (frequency options, tower options, etc) but not ones that are specific to a subscription. Therefore having a VERIZON PRI on a sprint phone could possibly work, but would cause weird problems.

Hey dudes...I have a couple of questions about issues I have run into when trying to theme the deodexed official version of Sense 2.2 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=740667). Issues are mentioned below:

#1. Where is the lockscreen located in Sense 2.2? It used to be HTCLockscreen.apk but that is no longer where it is located.

#2. When trying to theme the pull-down tray and make it transparent, it doesn't work and becomes a black box (difficult to explain). If someone could post a patch of fix for this that'd be phenomenal. I believe Nexus users faced the same issue with the pull-down tray when they first received Froyo and were themeing it - there should be a patch somewhere on the forums to fix it, but I'm not sure where it is at the moment.

If any of you know the answer or solution to either of these issues, then please let me know. Also, you guys can use this thread to discuss any issues you all are having with themeing the new official Sense 2.2. It would be good if we could all come together to solve some of the issues that we will face when themeing 2.2. Thanks!

Their are 3 files - 1. lockscreen_arc 2. lockscreen_arcglass_bottom 3. lockscreen_arcglass_top.9

Question#2 - Can't help you their lol. .
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteelH:
I have attached some files for you to help mod your lock screen. Credit to Konikub for creating them.

They are located in com.htc.resources.apk as michd43 said in the \system\framework\com.htc.resources.apk\res\drawab le-hdpi\ folder.

You can use these PNGs to replace the ones in your com.htc.resources.apk, you can replace the files with WinRAR quite easily as it can read apks.

:confused:whats the whole point of FLASH. i want to do that to my phone but what will it do to the phone. can someone explain to me about FLASH.
[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
Are you talking about flashing a ROM? If so the point is to get the newest or most stable build of WinMo.

Go to the ROM section and start reading the stickies. If you have a T-Mob HD2 you will want to pay particular attention to what ROM you do flash. There are two versions of the HD2, the European version on the T-Mobile version. The T-Mob version has a full gig of internal memory and a 1 gig processor while the European version only has 512 of memory and a smaller processor. If you make the mistake of flashing the wrong ROM onto the wrong phone you have an expensive paper weight.
[HD2 General] elpirruris:
yeah im talking about flashing rom. does this help the phone on working fast?
[HD2 General] sike222:
yes it does.
[HD2 General] d33f:
Sorry to correct you, but the Tmous has also 576MB RAM instead of 1024MB RAM, the European version does have 448MB RAM default, but after flashing a Tmous radio the ram can be unlocked so i has also 576MB RAM. I think you are meaning ROM instead of RAM

For me it's the RAM / Random Access Memory that counts since it's the memory you need to use in operation in contrary to ROM / Read Only Memory which is only needed to store your OS/Bootloader etc.

And cpu wise they got the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 8250B chipset/cpu running @ 1Ghz.

Ow and TS, if you are asking yourself what a FLASH is ? please don't try it if you got zero knowledge/understanding/informing yourself about flashing (be it pc,psp,hd2 etc.) that won't be such a good idea
[HD2 General] Faelok:
Take a look at these threads:

Flashing a ROM (International HD2)

Flashing a ROM (TMOUS HD2)

Flashing a new Radio ROM

Complete HD2 guide for flashing (Video's included)

It's a lot to go over, but if you are going to flash your device I highly recommend you know what you are doing. A mistake can mean a very expensive paperweight.
[HD2 General] Faelok:
To answer you question on the "whole point" thing..

There are several reasons one might want to flash their device.

I flashed hspl2 at first because I didn't like T-Mobil's lame pink pre-bootscreen. Then more recently I flashed a new Radio ROM.

Many (perhaps most) people flash "cooked" ROMs built by other members of xda (or themselves) which include their favorite apps, tweaks, themes, lockscreens, etc. already built into the ROM. Custom ROM's can also include updates to the Winmo OS.

Another reason is to change the Radio. The Radio ROM (not the FM radio) is the software that controls how your device handles data and phone connections.

Many people, including myself, flash a different Radio. Personally, I have found that my battery life, signal, and data connections have dramatically improved after doing this. You might also need to flash a new radio if you are going to try out the new(ish) android port.
[HD2 General] Wil Badger:
Ya sorry for the mistakes. Thought for some reason the Euro version had a smaller proc as well. As for the RAM-ROM thing ya just wasn't thinking as I typed.
[HD2 General] elpirruris:
thanks for the information guys. i have alot of reading to do. so u guys recommand for me to flash after i read the information???
[HD2 General] TheATHEiST:
Well what ROM you want to flash solely depends on what your wants/needs are. I personally prefer a clean 6.5.5 build (finger friendly/start buttons on bottom) and my current ROM is Cloudy 1.5

You will first need to flash HSPL3 before attempting to flash anything else. This will protect you from bricking your phone from a bad flash and also enables you to flash your phone from SD Card instead of USB cable and PC etc.

Once you have chosen your rom just stick the nbh file (rename to LEOIMG.nbh) onto root of SD and boot into loader.

Read all the needed info before attempting anything.

Is there a way to tweak the Captivate radio to switch between the 850 MHz band and the 900 MHz band or turn it into a quad band UMTS handset that can be used as a world phone?
[Captivate General] radi0chik:
no. If you want the 900 band, get the Vibrant
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
What part of the world would I need 850 that doesn't have a carrier on one of the other 3 bands?
[Captivate General] onfus:
850 is where most iDen phones operate - hence you would need 850 in markets where the operator owns "850" and plans to re-deploy. Lower frequencies yield better coverage and iDen usage is declining.
[Captivate General] ua549:
North America! There are many places in the US and Canada where 850 MHZ UMTS is all that is available. AT&T is migrating UMTS from the 1900 band to the 850 band. Venezuela requires the 900 MHz band and Europe is moving in that direction as well. Right now I carry two handsets when away from home.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] gjbnh:
Welcome Abroad! I too am a USCC dude. The TP2 is a great little phone. One of the problems that exist at this moment is many people are having major problems "Unlocking" the phone, which allows you to the "flash" the various custom roms, which replace the one that USCC put on the phone. The problems appear to be sporadic, and have to do with the fact that the unlocker program has issues, and is NOT very well supported. Never the less, if you can get the unlocker to work, the CDMA custom roms are plentiful and you should be able to try several of them out to find one you like more than the stock one. Begin by reading the unlocker thread, SEVERAL times to really grasp it (many users run into problems simply because they do not read!!) and you can find several YOUTUBE postings about how to flash a custom rom. Take a week or two to do this, ask questions about anything you don't understand, and somebody will help as best they can.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] justinl895:
So i need to unlock the phone before i am able to load a new rom?
