I keep both wifi and mobile enabled all the time on my phone.

Go to Menu > Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings > Menu > Advanced > Wi-Fi sleep policy > Never.

Then make sure wifi and mobile are both enabled on your phone.

That setup gives you wifi hookup whenever wifi is available, and mobile connection when wifi isn't available. You're always connected to one or the other, even when you're on the move, and the switching is seamless and transparent. ;)
[Hero CDMA General] Rustyd:
Nice tip.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA General] Aitak07:
Thanks, but isn't there a way to control and manage this.

For example, both are enabled with sleep policy and everything done like you just said.

So I am on 3G network, detect WIFI, but don't want to connect to it, due to certain parameters, like battery, signal strength, ...

Or can I just rely on the automatic switching when WIFI is detected nearby ?
[Hero CDMA General] diesel joe:
Don't know if you guys know this or not. But having WiFi conected gives you the ability to be on the phone and web at the same time.

Hi.

OK, this is my story...

I had a TP2, dropped the phone, cracked the screen. Sent it away to my insurance, and they tell me it's beyond economical repair. How that works, I dunno, as from what I've seen, it's less than £100 to repair. Anyway, they told me that they're gonna give me a cash settlement of £350.

Now, I'm looking at swapping over to an android phone. But, I wanted to know whether there was any way of recovering my SMS to transfer to the android phone...

I took a backup of the phone using SPB Backup. Have an unpacker tool that should allow me to extract the contents of my backup... Now, the problem I've had, is that most programs to save SMS from Windows Mobile require you to have the phone. Now, I don't have the phone, I just have the contents of the phone. But, it should be possible from these files to retrieve the SMS, should it not (I've not found anything, hence my questionning... But my search was probably rubbish keywords?!)...

Then, what would be the best software to transfer this retrieval on to an android phone?! I've found a few which import from xml, txt, csv, but not sure which is best, etc...

Any help appreciated :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] merci_vn:
You can try the following solution:

1. Run Spb Backup Unpack tool in PC to retrieve and export your text message.

Link: [spb.com/pocketpc-software/backup/unpack.html]

2. Run SMS Backup & Restore in your Android phone to import text message (from file created by Spb Backup Unpack tool)

Link: [android.riteshsahu.com/apps/sms-backup-restore]

Hope it can help you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lovelldr:
Many thanks for the reply... Didn't realise that the SPK Unpacker tool allows you to save the sms... Haven't had chance to play with it yet, but when I get back home from work, intend to do just that!

Thanks again for the reply... Just need to hope that the Desire Z is released soon!!! lol
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lovelldr:
Just to keep this thread updated...

Used the SPB Backup Unpack tool, to get my sms inbox and sent items... In my android device, used SMS Importer Lite program. This program can only import 100 messages per file. My sms csv file fromthe SPB backup contained over 1000 sms. So, what I did was to edit the csv file in notepad (in windows), and take 100 sms at a time (ctrl+g to go to line 100, and cut all files above this), and then past it to a new csv file. Then, edit the settingsin SMS import lite, so match the same csv file structure as the csv I Had. I then imported each file 1 by 1. This way, I managed to get all sms files :)

Just missing the mms messages. But am happy enough to get all the other messages :)

Hopefully this will help anyone else who wants help in this matter!

Hi!

I've downloaded from the Market place a demo of Touch Contact.

The problem I'm having is that when I'm at the contact tab on the HTC touchflo skin, when I click on 'All People' it just brings up the boring standard contact list.. is there anyway of editing the path as to what it launches?

Hi,

Any zeemote users? There is a zeemote driver on the market which seems to replicate the functionality of GamePro.

Zeemote JS Ctrl Input Method

It works fine with an N1/Zeemote, but not on the SGS.

Are there any known bluetooth issues with the stock ROM that might cause this?

I'm thinking of trying Froyo to see if this fixes it.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
they did include mouse and keyboard support in froyo

so chances of getting those bluetooth controller working are greater

in 2.1 mouse and keyboard are not supported
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesd256:
Ok, thanks.

Anyway, I updated to Froyo JPK, and the damn app disappeared from the market. I rooted and tried eris market fix, but it just won't show up. I did a wipe after flashing, so it's not a market cache issue I don't think.

Is there any way of grabbing the apk from the N1 I got it working on?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eagle2083:
I have a rooted, unlocked and sideloading enabled Captivate (JH7, same issue with JF6 before).

When I insert a T-Mobile USA SIM card, the phone stays forever (= more then 60 seconds) on no network[past boot animation]. Usually I get impatient (after about 15 seconds) and then manually select the network under settings, then I get a GSM/EDGE connection.

With my AT&T SIM it takes about 5-15 sec until I get a 3G connection[past boot animation].

Is this behavior normal or are there certain applications or scripts trying to prevent access or hindering access to other carriers ?

Also , with the T-Mobile SIM, under

{wireless and network->mobile networks->network operators}

I can actually make selections (automatic and manual), with the AT&T SIM this field is grayed out and just says "default". Is there a way to enable the menu so I can select between automatic and manual ?

This is for me who came back from Dubai and found my stupid captivate would not connect back to AT&T network.

I could not change the network as default setup was greyed out and phone gave continued warning could not connect to etisalat ( dubai provider).

I found out through a lot of hard searching that I needed to use samservmode then

DEBUG SCREEN > PHONE CONTROL > NETWORK CONTROL -> PLMN AUTO/MANUAL set to AUTO

That fixed it and got me back on AT&T

[Desire Themes and Apps] KBanause:
The content of /data is only visible with root rights. When using adb you should have seen /data/local.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Lucas0511:
Use Root Explorer, then you can see the /local inside /data, and move the zip to it. Estrong (free but not tested) might also work, activate Root feature in menu.

[Desire Themes and Apps] Trippy:
well to be frank I took the picture from someplace else and I just added the htc logo and made that red light effect.

But I know how to make it: If you have photoshop you cand draw the squares in 2d just make a plane out of squares with different blending modes and then you have to apply a skew until you get the desired effect.

Here's the original pick :)

Splash flasher

download the original img @ alpharev's site

seriously, you should take some time off to read the thread properly, I'm sure the OP said what you must do to change splash imgs.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Willie_Heckerslyke:
Apologies....I should've rephrased my question;

What I should have said was is there a nice and easy 'copy and paste' option to change the image (rather than using splashflasher)...as in Root Explorer like the method I used to do the boot animation :o
[Desire Themes and Apps] snark_be:
Here is the default HTC white splash screen.

Take it as attachment or download it from here.
[Desire Themes and Apps] Madeli:
As far as I know it's not possible to do it with root explorer. It must get transformed to a img and then be flashed with adb or android flasher. Android flasher is the easiest way... it makes everything for you... converts the bmp file to img and flashes. Very easy... just plug in your phone and let it do the magic ;)
[Desire Themes and Apps] Redgoblin:
Really nice and clean! :)
[Desire Themes and Apps] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Really nice. What font did you use for the text? I want to add owner information to the splash screen and the animation.

I use photoshop to make all my stuff... picture by picture...
[Desire Themes and Apps] Willie_Heckerslyke:
Thanks for including the psd file fatmabuy ;) (btw, what's the font you used for the splash...? I had to use a sub font for mine.... :rolleyes:)

I've made an alteration so that if your phone ever gets lost (or stolen), the new 'owner' will get a constant reminder that the phone isn't theirs to have....

EVERY

time they boot up the phone (coz let's face it, most peeps aren't into all this customization pallava, and wouldn't have a clue how to get rid of the boot screen that's forever reminding them of their good fortune/theft!) ;);)

[Desire Themes and Apps] Flashmaniac:
I dunno why but this tool doesnt change my boot animation....

I put it in a zip file called bootanimation.zip

am I right?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Madeli:
I had the same problem when I was using LeeDrOiD... i don't know why (I'm not a dev) but for some reason the path where the bootanimation is in LeeDrOiD is /data/local... so I had to put the bootanimation.zip in there for it to work.

Look around with root explorer in that path and see if you got the same. if so... you manually need to put the bootanimation.zip in there for it to work.

:)
