Hi All,

I totally agree with amienzero... first of all we should know what we want. Buying a WinMo & then wanting a android on that.. that too for free & then people start bashing the poor developer.. If it wasnt for captain Krtek we would even have a hint that android could be ported. Now since he doesn't have time & i really appreciate captain's clearness here, think he could have just stop responding what would have we done then....

Please don't think like this.... Android on a winmo is a challenge & ask anyone (even htc) its not easy. If we get it to work, it would have been great, but if not we still have WinMo 6.5.x.....

If you really want an andriod buy an andriod phone, also prices have gone down...

For Captain...... I really appreciate your time & work here captain.. really thankfull for that.

Regards,

HD
[Touch2 ROM Development] Captainkrtek:
Thank you Im glad someone understand, my life is a real jumble of work and writing now a days, back in the summer when I offered to do this project I had tons of free time, and when we ordered the phone it came a month later which messed up this project a bit as my work started to kick up with new projects. by now I have had no time for anything in my life, i get home from work and write for hours on end for XDA plus coding and testing for an app im working on with a few others. Im sorry If i have let you down and I can understand the anger but this project became to much for me.

Sincerely,

Steven
[Touch2 ROM Development] rakesh_4utoo:
I don't know why people are so much crazy about Android, WM has it's own place ,more all of us have the WM6.5 and that also can be upgraded to WM6.5.X which is latest. I loved my WM 2003 se edition in Mini O2 ,loved my WM5 in Gene,then WM 6 then after 6.1 and now 6.5 and 6.5.x.

I know android is a very good OS but i have a lot of friends who wants WM ported to their Android Phone, Human expectations are unreachable,

The people who have WM wants Android and who have Android wants WM.:D:D

But i love my WM6.5.5 and if this project will be successful then all credit will to CK.

Thanks

[Touch2 ROM Development] Chriss1983:
The opinion of rakesh_4utoo I can only agree, Windows Mobile has its advantages. I can visualize myself not the Android can be ported completely to the MEGA, who want a full support should buy an Android phone ...
[Touch2 ROM Development] seafoodmix:
rakesh how can I get a WM6.5.X upgrade for my phone?
[Touch2 ROM Development] leoccl86:
In my place of work, I have no choice but to get a NON-CAMERA 3G phone which is the T3330... If someone is to be so kind to upload a CHS WM 6.5.5 ROM, I would gladly stick to WM =)

Else, I think Android is the way to go... Unless we can flash Windows Phone 7 to our HTC Mega? Which I feel is more tougher than flashing Android right?

The HTC Tattoo has almost same specs as our HTC Mega, wonder why ours can't be flashed with Android? Could we just get their ROM and flash to our Mega?
[Touch2 ROM Development] Captainkrtek:
Not that easy haha, I wish it was
[Touch2 ROM Development] leoccl86:
I really wish I can help...

I just need to know the basics...
[Touch2 ROM Development] bornotty:
the htc touch2 stock rom is much better than any of the custom roms present here.. but the the cooks are surely trying hard.. :D
[Touch2 ROM Development] kinsoon1234:
captain why dont you try GEN Y-DualBOOT......use tattoo rom and mega original rom......should try it...
[Touch2 ROM Development] leoccl86:
If I'm not wrong, GEN Y dualBOOT requires your device to already have installed Andriod i.e the files already present in the storage.

I think that's what Captainkrtek has been trying to do? Not very sure.
[Touch2 ROM Development] HAKA:
Just sold out my Phone!! it was a piece of sh*t!!!!
[Touch2 ROM Development] boki999:
:):):):):)

Same here!
[Touch2 ROM Development] :
Captainkrtek this is funny:

irclog. netripper.com/ ?chan= htc-linux&month=9

so you just got a free phone to play?

I want one too, instead of messing on my own mega, which i need to call chicks.
[Touch2 ROM Development] Captainkrtek:
Look John,

I came into this project unexperienced in Win Mo, I admit that I was working with other devs on this too as this is not my area of expertise, and i made the other people involved knowledgeable of that fact. Im an Android dev and some of my work has been featured on engadget. As I quote from my original post:

When I recieved 200$ I decided if we dont order this now itll never get here, so I threw in 100$ of my own. The phone came from europe and after a long process it got here in september. by then work was starting to pick up on my end.

As the logs show in that irc chat I was looking for help, and I came into this project unsure, im sorry I could not fulfill your request.

As for donations Im already sending some back, got one today that im sending back 5 pounds to the donator.

If anyone wants theirs back let me know.

Sorry John

-Steve
[Touch2 ROM Development] leoccl86:
dude, if you got a prob with someone who have other commitments, why don't you try it yourself? Things don't happen in a snap, wake up to the real world.

Captainkrtek, i've been asking, can you at least let me know what tools I need so I can pick up this project on my own? Thanks
[Touch2 ROM Development] Captainkrtek:
There was a modified version of haret I was using ill pm you later also was using a toolchain, google what those are.
[Touch2 ROM Development] oceillo:
Thanks

hi there.

sorry for my English, I hope not to be discouraged, this project is very important to some users mega.

a million thanks for trying to see if we can with android.

;)
[Touch2 ROM Development] oceillo:
.......

another thing .... is a matter of money to have android on my mega? if so

say it and donate.
[Touch2 ROM Development] zito882000:
I know this project is halted, but I remember you had some problems with HARET, if the problem was "exactly" HARET, my question is if you had seen this page:

permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.haret/1349
[Touch2 ROM Development] Geo2000:
correct link here

This haret .exe not work on htc mega. Y tested my touch2 it not work. Run haret.exe and restart device not both.
[Touch2 ROM Development] nickjf20:
RIP

RIP Android on HTC Mega

So many hopes, Bye ...
[Touch2 ROM Development] viola.lory:
When will be ready????

When will be ready????
[Touch2 ROM Development] victorkoppen:
is it dead?

is the project officialy dead , or is there still hope? (another dev.)

the captain did his best , but there just wasn't enough time :(

I'm dissapointed right now , because at the beginning of this there where a lot of people who were very enthoustiastic, is this still the case?
[Touch2 ROM Development] nickjf20:
The project was going so well, what happened to all the people in the original thread and the people who made the website etc ?
[Touch2 ROM Development] DannyBiker:
Well, consider it dead. I always said that if the port is not available or at least in good progress by the end of the year, the project wouldn't be feasible. Seems I was right unfortunately.

I'll keep the webpage up aswell as the Twitter account. You never know...
[Touch2 ROM Development] sat2madgo:
vogue and mega

Just see Vogue (HTC Touch Cruise)............

It has

same hardware

same resolution

same processor

same ram

same camera

everything same as mega (HTC Touch2)

.

.

.

android works on it.....

then why not on mega?????

the only difference is that it has wm6.1...and which is not a problem.

And if developer dosnt have time Y dosent some one continue it ????
[Touch2 ROM Development] Sash5:
Thnx Captainkrtek.!

Was really looking forward for this project. Its hardly been few months getting Mega. Will change my phone in few months. Hoping for some good news by then. :)

Thank you Captainkrtek & all the best to other devs. :)

Сожалею

Блин. Уже Mac портировали на НТС -creep.ru/interesnoe/1161041901-mac-os-x-leopard-portirovali-na-htc-shift-3-foto.html

Я сожалею что столько времени потрачено в пустую, но всеравно надеюсь на успех
[Touch2 ROM Development] victorkoppen:
Can't we put a winmo 6.1 rom onto a HTC Touch 2

and then try Haret???

sorry if i am understanding this completely wrong, but out of this post i assume that the problem is winmo 6.5
[Touch2 ROM Development] welss:
it's not winmo 6.5 problem, only haret, because lack of support for msm7225, and htc touch cruise is msm7200 400 mHz, so they are not the same.
[Touch2 ROM Development] Exsoul:
So, no android for mega? :( Has been long time since the last update and there isn't more news
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mr.Hunk:
I am using Galaxy S i9000 for over a month now and have noticed that videos getting automatically deleted from the phone. This has been happening for quite sometime now, earlier thought it might be overwritten while transferring but there on always made sure that the data is copied by browsing phone as a mass storage.

Problem persists with the original firmware (factory default - I9000DDJF3) and the upgraded one through kies (I9000DDJG4).

Anyone facing similar issues or know solution to the problem?

Please Help!!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Roy Ngan:
You sure Mrs. Hunk didn't delete for you while you are sleeping? :)

joke aside, no, I didn't experience it, but my longest stay with the same Firmware doesn't go more than 3 weeks.

I believe you might have accidentally move it out from the internal SD IMHO.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mr.Hunk:
I am sure no one have deleted any videos and I havn't moved any data too. This has happened multiple times irrespective of where the data is stored (root folder, sub folder, etc).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Adevem:
nope, data is intact on mine.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Samga:
I guess it is about videos you copied to the phone?

I've found some AVIs in \DCIM\Camera\ that I think having put to \Videos\.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
those would be in \sdcard\sd\<name of the folder you put them in>
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mr.Hunk:
I am not using any external sd card. While transferring data through kies it is saved in /sdcard/DCIM/camera and if transferred using the mass storage option in the desired folder (new created or existing) data is still lost.

Also while transferring through kies it always wants to convert the videos from mp4 format to wmv format. At times I agree or just goes ahead with copy without converting but anyways the data is still lost. Moreover its not just a file or two getting deleted, whenever it deletes it deletes all the videos at once irrespective of the folders, format etc. which leaves me clueless :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xZeDgEx:
I lost a video once. Didnt think much of it at the time.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bones221:
When I change the time zone, either manually or automatically, the times of my appointments in the calendar app all change as well.

For instance, if I travel from central time zone to eastern time zone, all of the appointments will shift to an hour later.

I travel a lot, and this has become quite problematic. Can anyone help?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bones221:
anyone?

It's driving me 'round the bend.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilco:
I do not understand why this is a problem....

All appointments are linked to UTC/GMT.

Therefore if you change timezone, your appointments follow suit.

The HD2 has the ability to work with two timezones

(windows key, settings, more, clock)

Tab time, if you set "visiting" your appointments will move in time. (because of lock to GMT)

If you on the other hand changeyour home time it will also automatically change the times. (because of lock to GMT)

The only thing I can suggest is plan your appointments in GMT time, then all appointments will automatically move to the correct time in the timezone.

What I mean:

If you need an appointment at 13:15 EST (UTC-5), and you are in Amsterdam at the moment (UTC+1) (Note UTC=GMT) then the appointment should be planned in at 19:15 (conversion from EST to UTC adds 5, from UTC to Amsterdam +1)

This is actually also the time you should make a phonecall to someone in EST at 13:15. (To rech a person at 13:15 in EST, you will need to call them at 19:15 Amsterdam time..)

Now if you move to the EST region, adapt your clock, all appointments will shift in time, resulting in the planned appointment beeing scheduled at 13:15.

The other option (if you do not like this), is to look for a second clock, which looks at the earlier mentioned "Visiting" time, without activating visiting Time (leaving allways on home time, not adapting that one to your new timezone)

Clocks Like SPB Time, handy clock ar just two apps wher you can see multiple timezones at once. (Commercial apps, quite expensive)

But there are a lot of freeware alternatives too, but then you will have to look for yourself (and WM6.5) as loads of freeware clocks are for PPC2003, wm5, wm6 seldom for wm6.5

I hope this will help you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troed:
Hi Wilco !

I am facing exactly this problem since now I use my HD2-Sense calendar as my calendar "on the go" (till now I used Google-mobile app to call up my calendar)

I am syncing now my Google-Calendar via Active-sync/Exchange and it is really annoying when I am in a different time zone that all my appointments shift in time and it would be a hell of work to register appointments in UTC and wouldn't make sense since when I look up appointments in my home place they are shifted to local time too.

On the other hand I need the local time on my home screen when in a different time zone.

Isn't there a handy way to overcome this ? Having the clock show the local time AND the calendar keeping the appointment dates to home time ?

Maybe a reg-tweak?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troed:
Does maybe anyone know where in the registry I find the coding for the calendar so that I can play around a bit ............. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troed:
Just for info: got in contact with HTC support. They answered: it´s not possible to have local time AND calendar dates correct. It´s an either - or

I mean: how stupid is THAT ?????? :mad:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] troed:
Now finally I found a somehow easy solution to this problem since HTC is of absolutely no help and won´t solve in the next 30 years :mad::mad::mad:

Before You leave Your time-zone call up google calendar in any browser, go to "settings" and switch time zone to the time-zone of Your destination.

Then resync Your calendar.

Once You come back change time-zone again in google calendar.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iamtimmah:
Hi.

Does anybody know of a good calendar widget? I've tried some and most require you to use their calendar application. I personally prefer the calender app that comes stock with the vibrant and would like a widget that pulled info from there but looks more like the stock widget on vanilla android.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] NoDataFound:
Im running "android agenda widget". It does exactly what i need and lets me view multiple calendars. Ita free btw
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Shrivel:
"Pure Calendar Widget" is one of the few paid apps that I have used the entire time since buying them when I had my G1 until now.

Extremely customizable and will allow you to use pretty much any calendar app.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iamtimmah:
Thanks guys, I'm downloading both right now. :)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] zephiK:
I highly recommend Pure Calendar Widget as well.. excellent application and worth the $
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iamtimmah:
So I bought pure calander widget, as well as messenger widget, very very nice. Granted theres a ton of options, too much to get into right now but so far so good. Nice way to spend the little bit of funds in my account. and the HTC sense skins are a nice touch.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iamtimmah:
*accidental doublepost, sorry.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Dougefresh91:
The one that comes with launcher pro plus is pretty good. But if you don't use LP I guess its not too helpful.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] rogerchew:
using agenda widget
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kboater:
started using pure calendar widget today.

3 questions:

-i see someone mentioned you can make it htc sense like? i dont see how???

-when i rotate screen, the widget goes blank for about 2 minutes...not like a little lag and re-draw with takes seconds. it goes completely white for about 1 or 2 minutes, then it all comes back. any ideas?

edit, 1 more question:

-what is the difference between pure calendar widget and agenda widget? pros or cons of each?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] iamtimmah:
You have the option to skin the app. At the bottom in the config screen theres the option to Continue and Skin. Thats where I found mine.

Also which launcher are you using? ADW has an option to enable and disable scrollable widgets, which might be the cause of your problem.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] courtmagician:
I recently discovered Jorte, which has a good amount of widgets and the calendar app itself is excellent and will fully replace the stock one (my preference) - but I'm pretty sure you can have it open the stock one. It can also sync with Google Tasks although it has to be done manually.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] kboater:
cool, thanks.

in LP, it enabled scrollable widgets and that has seem to fix the going blank problem.

but i think im going to try the agenda widget as pure calendar widget just slows my phone WAY down. It just slows everything down. maybe if i turn off scrollable in pure calendar and lp it will work better...
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
hi all

is anyone experience a sticky slide to unlock slider ?

i'm finding, at time, i need to slide-to-unlock up to 5 or 6 times before it unlocks.

is there anything that can be done about this ?
[Streak 5 General] MrTechie:
i was having the exact same issue, sometimes it just wouldnt work. cleaning the screen helped massively but was sometimes still there.

Im now running MCR r2 so will test and report back
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
what is MCR r2 ?
[Streak 5 General] squalllion1uk:
I use a app caller no lock as the slider to unlock is just utter **** and annoying when you have a call to answer.
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
just downloaded and installed, i like it... thanks man
[Streak 5 General] jnovello:
I use menu to unlock. Gives you the option of the slide (hate) or just use the menu button as in 1.6. Works very well.
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
huh ? really ? where is that option available ?
[Streak 5 General] jnovello:
I think I found it here somewhere. It's on the market made by Kmobs for .99 cents and you must be rooted.
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
ok, but why is the slider so bloody sticky... on a few occasion i've almost missed a call.
[Streak 5 General] cue_32:
I just hit the back button when it doesn't slide the 1st try then slide again.
[Streak 5 General] cue_32:
Monaco Custom ROM.
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
it's insane that we need to do that !

i really hope they fix it in 2.2
[Streak 5 General] futurama:
we are talking about 2.2 already? the rest of the world will be on 3 by the time dell get their arses into gear
[Streak 5 General] zero.fx:
Actually I experience he exact same issue, in fact there have been quite a few bugs since upgrading to 2.1.

So far I have found the sticky slide unlock.

Some times screen does not respond at all.

Unit frozen a few times and forced me to hard boot.

Also phone don't vibrate when i receive an SMS message?? <=== is this a setting somewhere i can change. can't seem to find it
[Streak 5 General] checkbox111:
It's not a bug! unless of course you have just swatted one with the streak :eek: you either have a dirty screen or sweaty fingers :rolleyes:
[Streak 5 General] neotarum:
Hi guys, I had the same problems too. With mine, I couldn't swipe to unlock - nothing happened when I tried and had to remove the battery in order to reset the phone!!

To be honest, it felt like it was a software issue than my hands being sweaty or screen being dirty as I always keep the phone in the pouch provided. Apart from that, I never had a non-responsive screen.
[Streak 5 General] yokuoh:
I have had the same problem a few times.

It is not sweaty fingers or a dirty screen...

The screen can become 'laggy' and unresponsive, when I eventually get it to unlock I restart the device and it is fine.

It is a bug.

:)
[Streak 5 General] futurama:
Missed 4 out of 6 calls due to this issue yesterday. Sort it out dell.
[Streak 5 General] zero.fx:
How did it get sorted with dell please explain? is it an software issue
[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
Do any of you guys have svreen protectors on? Make sure there is no dirt between it and the screen. Also make sure the palm of your hand isn't touching the screen (don't have this problem with the streak but I do with the evo).

I've only had this issue twice, first time with the slide to answer, took like 5 tries to get it all the way over (and over course it happened while I was spring the phone off) and the other time it was whole I was attempting to put my lock pattern in.
[Streak 5 General] wezknowles:
Thanks so much for this! I used to use No Lock but I don't feel safe without any lock at all.
[Streak 5 General] niner86:
Ill second that, thanks very much! Absolute nightmare that sticking!:)
[Streak 5 General] a042349:
I stopped using "No Lock" because I kept turning it on by accidentally pressing buttons. Also I never could get "Menu Unlock" to work when the phone was ringing. I've had a few calls go to VM because I couldn't unlock the screen fast enough.

Very annoying bug. (I'm on the leaked 2.1 ROM too btw)
[Streak 5 General] wezknowles:
Hi guys, I was browsing some Streak forums this morning and found a tip to stop the lag in 2.1 most are experiencing. This also fixed my sticky unlock slider! You need a rooted phone (but I'm guessing you're already rooted seeing as you're on XDA!).

I did this fix about 11am this morning and the slider has not got stuck ONCE since then.

I'm not sure about the rules of posting links because I'm kinda new, so if it's ok, I'll just post the tip.

First, install Root Explorer. Then navigate to /system/ and look for "build.prop". Open the file and about half way down you should see the line "debug.sf.hw=0". Go into text editor and change the line to "debug.sf.hw=1". Save and quit, then restart your phone.

I personally noticed significant speed improvements throughout the menus (especially the widget menu etc.) and as I said before, the sticky lock slider is no more!
[Streak 5 General] niner86:
Yeah ill vouch for the above fix, its sorted the lag that you can get when using the phone, the delay you get trying to pick up/hang up, works a treat!!
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
How does one root a streak ?
[Streak 5 General] wezknowles:
Look for an app called Universal Androot. Worked for me.
[Streak 5 General] abhinav919:
No need to do all dis, i was facing the same problem on my dell streak.

i just calibrated its screen and now its working fine, no issues yet.

i hope dis will work. Let me knw if it does.

To calibrate screen

1- turn off the phone

2- press and hold volume up,down and power button all three together, and wait for the phone to start settings

3- select option 3 to calibrate

Done..

:)
[Streak 5 General] wezknowles:
I tried the screen calibration the other day but it didn't stop the sticky slide for me. Plus, the lag mod is worth doing even if you don't have the unlock problem because of the speed boost.
[Streak 5 General] abhinav919:
May be, but it worked for me though..!!
[Streak 5 General] Fazziebear:
I use this app. If I cant swipe then I can use the home button. Often when I need to use this the screen wont respond anyway, but I can usually take a call.
[Streak 5 General] abhinav919:
No need to spend even 99 cents coz lock bot does it for free, avlble in market, nice replacement to stock lock screen.. Worth a try..
