Asian font support

Hi,

has anyone been able to display chinese characters with this ROM?

I followed the standard procedure (editing the registry, ecc.) with no success.

Please help!

thanks

Julie

EDIT: I managed to install them. Forget about messy registry editing; find (google) and use the following CABs instead:

1d_M2D_mingliu.cab (Traditional Chinese)

simsun_2_50.ac3.cab (Simplified Chinese)

they will change registry setting automatically.

bye

Thanks

I upgrade my german t-com MDA2 (HTC Himalaya) from PPC2003 to WM6.5

I upgrade with your ROM, install the "ext_rom_unlocker" to get 30MB free space and install the "GermanInputForWM6".

I´m a totaly n00b to WM but with all the infos from this forum it was done in one afternoon.

Thanks to aeroflyluby and all other helpers to make it possible!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnD:
EDIT: 4questions :P!

Hi guys. I just installed the 2.2 update via OTA, but now i got "3 little problems". Since i didnt find them via search buttom, i'd like to ask them here.

1.- Most settings are the same as before (2.1), but for example, Google Talk changed my nickname, from my name to my e-mail. I know there was a way to change it, but i dont find the way to...

I know people can change my nickname, so each one sees me with the nickname they want, but the "default one" was my name and now's my e-mail :P

2.- Facebook events + brithdates. Is there a way to disable them? I got all kind of connections from facebook disabled.. but dont find this new feature so i can disable it.

3.- Flash. I found on market Adobe Flash Player 10.1. Wasn't it supposed to be enabled by default? I mean. Should i install it? Is it better than default? I dont understand anything since i read that 2.2 came with default 10.1... but there's an app, from Adobe.

4.- Is is recommended to do a hard reset after updating? I mean. I got all apps from 2.1 installed. And since I update, none of them were removed, etc. Do I lose some speed or something if i dont hard reset? Maybe Hard Reseting + Reinstalling ALL apps make my device to run EVEN smoother and faster than it does. (It goes faster now than before with 2.1, but maybe...)

See you soon and thanks for all!!!

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve228uk:
I actually haven't been able to change it myself.

In Calendar hit Menu > More > Calendars and untick it from there.

I believe HTC have just included this in their ROM.

I quick off-and-on again or battery pull if it slows down should suffice.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnD:
So 2.- Solved 100%

Still need help on:

1.-

3.-

4.-

Since 2 is exactly what we needed and 1,3,4 are things that you believe. Thank you very much !!!

w8ing for more answers :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgrec92:
3 - included as default in the official rom

4 - always recommended when installing a new system, if not this could lead to bugs and performance issues. The official froyo is also odexed there's a chance your apps may conflict. if you have the time to hard reset then it's defo recommended.

don't know about the google talk thing though sorry.

3. and 4. answered

1. is still missing :P

I may be about to buy an HTC Desire on Vodafone IE, and I was wondering: if I root the phone with the goldcard method, will it become unlocked so I can put SIM cards from other networks in it?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] th3:
Not so.

"Root" just allows Su privileges, additions like custom recovery and the ability to flash any update, such as ROM, radio, etc.

"Unbranded" removes the network carriers ROM changes to a plain HTC ROM. For this you basically go through a method which enables you to flash the stock HTC ROM.

"Unlocked" opens the SIM lock your network carrier placed on the device using a [purchased] code.

The three are separate processes.

Root access via the Unrevoked method is extremely fast, stable and simple. And root has many benefits, even allowing you to take screenshots, remove default apps you don't want, theme your phone fully, save backups in forms of snapshots to revert to whenever, and so forth. The data is all there in ample depth if you search and spend a good few days reading.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FunkTrooper:
So there's no way to unlock the phone without getting the phone network to do it, or paying some third party to do it?

If a third party can unlock the phone, then surely the process has been cracked/reverse engineered, right? Doesn't that mean I should be able to do it myself for free? Has anyone figured this out? I mean, if other people know how to do it without network approval, surely anoyone should be able to do it. All that's needed is to generate a code... right?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fred Newman:
You can unlock your phone there are a few good guides on the forum. I suggest that you read carefully the first sticky post in the desire android development section titled ( [TUT]Complete upgrading guide(root, unroot, flashing ROM & updates) and also the second post . I didn't need to carrier unlock however the process seemed relatively simple.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxmeister:
It isn't about "generating" the code - the 3rd party unlockers have gained access to a database of codes, so it isn't about cracking or reverse engineering anything.

Buy a code - job done!

Dave
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FunkTrooper:
So... somewhere on the phone is stored the status of whether or not the phone is locked to a certain network. Does anyone know where this data is stored? Can it be modified without the need for an unlock code.

I assume this data isn't stored in any place that would normally be overwritten when rooting the phone, such as where the recovery partition or the system partition.

Have done several rom flashes on unrooted Desire in past and justwent to put another one on but cannot open the windows.bat file when the red exclamation mark is on the phone. I have always gone through it swimmmingly but this time round, nothing is happening. I can get the bootloader screen but not really much else. I have tried the cable in a different usb port in case it may have been that but still no joy. I notice when it does the very initial boot thing, it says wrong image. I have also tried booting the phone normally but it gets to the loading screen then goes blank and if I press the wake button it still shows the boot screen.

Any ideas?? I think the phone is ok, looks like a software problem and I havent the foggiest how to get round this:(

I tried to install the new 2.2 that was released today but there was a script issue so reverted to Pirate Rum rom 2.2 as I was using it before but this time around it hangs on the screen.

[Desire General] talhamid:
I know this must sound like a super-noob question, but there's a simple reason for that : it is from one:-).

I have run out of space on my 8 GB card so I am thinking of upgrading to a bigger card. Here are my questions:

1) If App2SD+ is there on the ROM, does the phone ask you where to install the app or it goes automagically into EXT partition?

2) I want to make a bigger partition in a bigger card and will do it via ROM Manager. Do I just copy the contents of the older card and paste it onto newer and everything will work fine?

Please answer, my life depends on it.
[Desire General] diggedy:
I just upgraded from 8 to 16 myself. 1 : automatically, 2: yes that worked for me

best thing is to pre partition the card before putting it in your phone, do a nandroid backup with your old card in, put the new one in and restore, if im not mistaken this deals with the ext partition files and then just copy all the files onto the fat32 partition from your old card
[Desire General] hensk:
not worked for me ,I was copy to PC old cadr,have nandroid but I have A2SD+ ext part

& problems ..stock with HTC white logo ,after that I make full wipe/factory reset

& after that instal the LeeDroid rom /put again ROM manager & make ext 3 partition/

after that Titanium backup & Desire functionality was back again
[Desire General] capone5:
hi there i have auraxtsense rom and and i have an old sd card with app2sd i bought a new card for my desire 8gb class6, and my phone stuck on htc logo screen when i put new card inside
[Desire General] philje123:
As said above you must re-partition your new card first!

I have just done this yesterday so this is what I did:

1. Nandroid backup

2. Create EXT partition on new card with G-parted Live

3. Copy contents of old SD card to the new one (just the FAT partition visible in windows etc)

4. Put the new SD card in the phone and boot into recovery

5. Restore nandroid backup (copies all the apps back onto the EXT partition)

6. Reboot!

I can't see how you could have any problems by doing what I did. The phone will not have any problems as all the old files are exactly as they were.

Phil
[Desire General] capone5:
how to create ext partition with gparted?
[Desire General] philje123:
You must first resize the FAT partition and then create a new EXT partition in the newly created space.

This may be helpful as there are some pictures:

Hope that helps.

Phil
[Desire General] sh500:
So the Nandroid backup is not saved on to the SD Card?

EDIT: Ignore this. Wanted to know if it was on the FAT or ext3. I'm guessing on the FAT so nandroid backups would be included in the transfer.

What is the best tool for copy the entire contents of a memory card? I know Windows is a bit funny, stops the whole process if it finds an error, for example
[Desire General] philje123:
Yes if you copy the files over before the nandroid then the nandroid backup is included.

TBH I just used windows to copy them all and had no problems.

Phil
[Desire General] KotDroid:
One question - can the ext partitions have different sizes when restoring with nandroid?

Example - I have 1 GB ext on old card and now I'd like to have 2 GB?
[Desire General] madd0g:
Don't go larger then 1.5GB on a ext partition. Nandroid restore doesn't mind if the partition size changed, until the restored size is smaller then the new capacity.
[Desire General] mistake37:
You sure can, I just did it today, old ext2 w/ 512MB on 2GB card, now 2GB ext3 on 8GB card. Working just fine :)
[Desire General] madd0g:
I didn't say you can't, I stated that it's not recommended by the community to go more then 1.5GB. It was in all a2sd how-to's I've seen, has to be something about errors with the Market and app installing.
[Desire General] dimeotane:
From what I understand the only advantages to APP2SD+ is that you can plug you can mount your card via USB and use your apps, and widgets can be installed on the SD.

Source

This doesn't seem worth it for all the work reformatting another partition. If your card is upgraded to a bigger size why not use the normal method of installing apps on your SD? Why bother to partition with Ext+ as well?
[Desire General] KotDroid:
Hmm, because it is what custom ROM requires?
[Desire General] Nitin985:
It's actually bigger than 2gb :)

ROM dutty's WM6.1 WWE

ROM date 06/07/08

Radio 1.65.16.25

Thanks in advance for your help,

[HD2 General] me:
I have ordered a HD2, should come in a couple days.

The "Sense UI" that HTC has layered above the regular WM 6.5 UI, is supposed to be "easier to use".

I believe I have read somewhere though, that it is possible to turn off the Sense UI, and just use the normal WM interface.

I am a long time WM user, having used PPCs and phones using WM 2003, WM5, and WM 6.1. I have preferred Today Screen applets, know how I like to configure WM, etc. So for me, I don't think the Sense UI would be "easier", but something new I would have to learn how to use, while I am already very familiar with the WM interface.

For those readers who were very used to WM before getting the HD2, how many have stuck with the Sense UI, and how many have set it to only use WM? Reasons for your choice?

Does the "Sense UI" have any benefits besides supposedly being "easier", eye candy, and the like? If so, what are they?

Any disadvantages to Sense? I assume it is using additional memory, so that would leave less memory available to apps, correct? Is it more prone to crashes, etc.?

Also, on looking at an HD2 in the store, there are many icons for things I have no interest in--a Blockbuster app, etc. With WinMo, I know how to remove programs, remove items from the start menu, etc. Is it easy to remove stuff like that from the Sense UI? How?

In general, I would like to hear from experienced WinMo users, who got the HD2, what they consider to be advantages and disadvantages of using "Sense UI", and how many have kept it, and how many have reverted to WinMo?

Thanks for your input.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Personally, I am quite likeing Sense. I come from a long line of both WM Professional and Standard devices, so I know and have used more than likely 5 different UI's in my time, and Sense is laregly indeed the easiest to use. I really liked Titanium....until I used Sense on the HD2.

If you have used TouchFLO in the past, then you have used Sense...and I can tell you, don't let the horrible sluggishness of TF make you instantly hate on Sense...I for one am converted. I HATED TF. Slow, buggy, hard to use TouchFLO. Sense fixes pretty much everything that sucked about TF.

Sense is actually VERY customizable. I personally use CoOkie's Home Tab 1.8.5(?) and it lets you customize nearly every part of the Sense experience. You can change the colors of items, the location, how many quick links, the clock style, the buttons on the ribbon...basically anything.

The links you mentioned(Blockbuster etc) can indeed be changed just by tapping and holding. You can make basically anything on your device a quick link on the homescreen through CHT.

As far as memory is concerned, the HD2 has an ample supply of RAM, usually around 280MB free upon boot, and disabling Sense doesn't really gain you all that much. If 476MB of RAM is not enough...well then something is wrong. As far as processing power is concerned, I do not really see a gain nor loss between Titanium/Today/Sense.

All in all, if you want to use Today plugins, then use the standard Today screen. If you want a UI that is a little easier to use one handed, then use Titanium or Sense.
[HD2 General] me:
Thanks for the reply, Ashasaur.

I have never used TouchFlo nor Titanium, but only regular WM. Therefore, comparisons with those other UIs mean nothing to me.

I would only like to know what advantages or disadvantages Sense UI might have compared to the regular WM 6.5 interface. (As I wrote, the latter would not be new to me, having used many WM devices, including 6.1.)

How does Sense make it easier to use the phone one-handed?

In the following thread, a user complains of many crashes with Sense:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=740367

Are many users experiencing that?

By the way, if I decide to revert to the WM interface, without Sense, how do I do that?
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Ah, I see that I mis-read your OP. The main disadvantage that Sense has I suppose is expanability. You had mentioned about using Today screen plugins, and under Sense this is simply not possible, as it is also not possible under Titanium. They both use a different type of plugin. Plugins do indeed exist for Sense, but what those are and what kinds that exist I am not sure of.

To revert back to Sense is as easy, and more or less the same process as switching to the normal UI. Simply goto Start->Settings->Today->Items and uncheck "HTC Sense", then check "Windows Default" in order to use the regular WM Today screen. Simply reverse the process to go back to Sense.

As far as crashes are concerned, I won't lie...I have had several, but most have been from me doing something stupid. As far as Sense crashing on it's own, so far I have not had that happen.

In my opinion Sense makes one handed operation easier because it aggragates all your basic Today screen functions onto the ribbon. It's kind of hard to explain, but you can scroll through the entire ribbon within less than an inch of moving your finger. So basically, from the "home" tab of Sense, you could literally scroll your finger 3/8 of an inch and be at the "mail" tab to check email, then back 1/4 of an inch to "messages" to check SMS. It really is something that you need to experience for yourself in order to understand. Over scrolling will happen at first, but as you use the device you will learn just how far to scroll to get to just the right tab.
