[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fade2black101:
Totally agree with you here. What I think would be cool would be to have a developer develop a very user friendly operating system like iPhone, which works perfectly out of the box but is also very restricted which, for the average user, wouldn't be much of a problem and would minimize problems.

However, if there was an option within the settings to allow you to turn on "advanced customizations" then it would give users such as us the freedom to customise the operating system in any way we want. In a similar fashion to WM6.x and Android. At the same time it would allow more "casual" users to enjoy the system in a similar fashion to iPhone.

In my opinion it is possible to combine two different types of operating systems which could potentially lead to a big market share :P

What do people think of this idea? (feel free to disagree or tell me why it's not possible to create such an operating system)

Just my two cents now that Windows Phone 7 is out, I am going to go Android next. My Tp2 is cooking along overclocked, but I see the "cloud" on the horizon and I don't like the looks of it. I think the only way to retain control of the deviceis through Android and Open Source, not Apple or MS....

I just got a new laptop and you should see the hoops I have to jump thought to get things synched up properly with the latest manipulations of MS even with WMDC.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] StupidCid:
Doing something wrong

sounds like user error to me. No wm phone out of box other than the hd2 is faster than my tp2. :o only soft reset once a week.

My friend has a hd2 and has been joking with me about switching lately because he has no time to customize his phone. My girlfriend wants the iphone, and that will be perfect for her because we wouldn't want to make things complicated for her. but since i have found XDA i don't think i could go back to letting my carrier and phone manufacturer have the final decision of what my phone looks like and can and can't do. So no iphone or blackberry for me. android temps me every so often but no one like's a trader.... and plus i can run android on my tp2 anytime i want:P and so i wait until march when i am up for upgrade and unless wm7 ends up being less secure then they say, and custom roms and apps are available then its on to android i guess.:(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] undefined:
Unfortunately, this does look like the end to WM6~ I have liked it for these past few years, and I used to also use windows, but I gave up on Windows Desktop because I use my computer for a Webserver, and linux is the best way to go, and I am also going to want to be able to ssh into the server easily, and easily go from my computer to phone, so android is where I am heading towards, although I do use RHOBUNTU alot, its REALLY nifty to be able to run a full x-server on a phone, and that would be my ultimate phone,although I am looking at getting an HTC Shift, i feel it would be nifty for college.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] potna:
Finally, I got done reading all those posts, my turn.

I ditched my tilt 2 back in august for the evo and this change was like graduating high school for me. Or maybe like that song that says: "it's closing time, you don't have to go home but you can't stay here"

I feal silly about the way I get attached to these little devices, and I must say that I miss my tilt 2. Leaving att was also hard, I was with them for 8 years, but it was like breaking with a bad girl friend, you feel bad doing it, but you feel better almost instantly.

Anyways, I love the evo, there are less quality apps but that is changing daily. There is less to customize and I'm surprisingly pleased with that. On wm I was constantly flashing and tweaking, on android I played with flashing and tweaking for a few weeks and I went back to stock with sense. Now I just use my device. Seriously, I just use it. I'm on it constantly and I'm getting things done or pissing around with a game.

This phone is super reliable. It feels odd not having to wipe the device or flash a rom all the time too get peak performance.

There are some rumors about some phones some of us tilt 2 owners might like: touch pro 3, htc knight, evo shift.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ngpsaki:
I've been looking over the AT&T offerings, and I see very little from HTC. Are they parting company? Also, it seems that the QWERTY keyboard is going the way of the buggy whip. My son is recommending an Android device on T Mobile, but right now I'm locked into AT&T until next May.

Touch Pro 3 needs to exist

Companies that have a WM6 license can still use it, right? So wouldn't it be awesome to see a Touch Pro 3 with a heavily-tweaked WinMo 6 and a 1GHZ processor and 512MB RAM? That... would be awesome. But now, all we've got is Windows Phone 7... So sad... they killed off the Sidekick, and now WinMo 6... DANG IT, WHY DO YOU HAVE TO KILL ALL MY FAVORITE PHONES? Ah well. Android on my TouchPro2 is enough to tide me over for a long while. Hope the developers don't stop cooking Android roms... Oh, and if the 7 Pro could run Android and WM6 like the TouchPro2, I'd jump ship in a heartbeat :)

And yes, I had the first iPhone. It sucked massively. Even WITH jailbreaking, the apps were slow, then no multitasking, then I drop the thing THE ONE TIME IT'S NOT IN A CASE, and the freaking home button breaks. NEVER AGAIN, HTC FTFW!
[HTC Aria General] Erinc2005:
:confused:So I decided to delete my g-mail acct. I never ever use it... I have another email acct that is my primary...

anywho, so I tried to go onto the Market & it says my password is invalid for the gmail acct that I signed up with. It doesnt exist any longer & theres no way to change it that i've found on the Market to another email or something.

what to do?? I've searched and i havent found a solution. :confused:

BASICALLY- what i need to know is how do i get back onto Market?
[HTC Aria General] demo_guy69:
I guess the easiest way would be to set up your phone with a different gmail account. But you will still lose the apps you paid for.

You could try emailing android market support or Google checkout support. They can transfer your purchases to a different account. Not sure if they would be willing to though.
[HTC Aria General] Anthony1s:
Yeah, when I switched to CM6, the email I thought I used previously wouldn't work so I created another. Turns out that I misspelled the first email I created, which is why I kept getting it wrong. When I installed CM6, I ended up just creating another account for the market. Now I have two gmail accounts on my phone and neither are my usual usernames. When I go to settings > accounts & sync it won't let me delete them. I pretty much have to have both emails on my phone so I can keep my apps anyway. It just sucks that both emails' login info is something that I will never remember off the top of my head.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahi58:
Hi guys.

I bought a used nexus one yesterday and the shopkeeper gave me a 24hrs period to test it.

The phone was looking good, until my nephew played some games with it; then it started to reset in the middle of every game! The problem happened more and more often, and the phone almost never were able to run a game for more than 10 minutes!!

The problem had an interesting pattern: it never restarted when wasn't running games, the first time I played a game the phone restarted after 5-6 minutes, the second time after 3-4 minutes, next time after 1 minute of playing a game, and the next time it was restarting even before entering a game. If it was a pc, I would certainly say it's a case of overheating problem...

I returned the phone and the shopkeeper said I will do a hard reset and do some software modifications (like OS upgrade) and it will certainly be OK, and he is supposed to give it back to me in saturday...

I wanna ask about your opinion:

What does this problem look like?

Is it most likely a hardware problem, or a software-OS problem? Can i hope that it will be corrected, or I'm being fooled by the seller?

Thanks a lot.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkorn:
First, always update the software/wipe before ruling out hardware failure. If it still does it, then it's hardware. There are also logs and dumps that can be pulled to see if it is a heat problem. There are also benchmarks that can use to stress the phone, as a game would, which would be another way to test the stability. If you didn't already show him, before you leave, run a game known to crash it before you leave the store.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firerock:
What game is it? What OS/Rom is your N1 running?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dowmace:
I'd bet that a wipe will fix it, but there is a high likelyhood that it is overheating from some kind of internal issue but like I say I'd see how it does after a wipe
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahi58:
Many games (almost every game we tried) caused my phone to restart, but these two were used more, both with multiple restarts:

Diner dash 2

Papastacker

I checked out the "About phone" menu before returning the phone, and it said:

Android Version: 2.2

Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9-27227-g3c98b0d

Help... :(
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaytsus:
I'd say walk away, the phone is likely defective. But if he'll give you another 24h evaluation period after "fixing it", give it a shot.

Ooops. I uninstalled a system program by mistake using Titanium backup - "Accounts and synch settinngs". In order to fix it, I extracted the apk file from the system Captivate ROM, put it it back on my Captivate but am unable to install it. It says "install unsuccesful". Anybody know a trick to get that program back on my Captivate or do I have to flash again?

How did you pull the APK out of the ROM?

As for installing, did you enable sideloading?

Thanks,

I unzipped some other roms and didn't find the whole OS ..... just a big BIN file. I guess that is the difference between flashing a ROM/PIT versus the one click restore.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] japher:
Hi,

I bought an unlock code from htcsimunlock.com today as I wanted to temporarily use a Vodafone SIM in my SIM-locked Orange HTC Hero.

I switched the SIMs and entered the unlock code. All seemed to be fine (code was accepted) so I then switched back to my Orange SIM.

Unfortunately I'm now not able to use mobile data :( I've checked my APN settings and they are all still present and correct. I'm using:

- VillainROM 12

- Radio 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.14

I can still make/receive voice calls and send/receive SMS messages. Does anyone know why my mobile data would be dead? I've heard of these symptoms for people who are still using a stock Orange ROM, but I'm using VR12.

Is there any way I can reinstate the SIM lock?

Can anyone help? Particularly anyone who has successfully unlocked their Orange Hero??
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] High__Flyer:
I'm in the same boat.. I was under the impression it was something to do with the fact I was tethering non stop last night and Orange have done something, But I'm showing a data connection, I just can't use it.

I'm getting E-Mails occasionally, But nothing else.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] japher:
Yeah, sorry I forgot to mention:

I see the 3G (and sometimes H) icon with both up and down arrows flashing occasionally, but nothing meaningful seems to be getting downloaded. Any apps that require a data connection just timeout and/or fail because of a lack of data transfer.
