Ok, i cant flash my Orange branded Touch Pro 2. SOOOOOO....

I have searched for the absolutly best way to get the ultimate performance from my device. Whether its the Orange ROM (WM6.5) or some wee glitch with my phone, ive had issues. I find Sense slow and buggy and have been plagued with freezes and having to rest several times every day. Battery performance has been poor and in general a fantastic machine just wasnt cutting the mustard (even went back to my Kaiser for a while).

The problems seem to be common enough tbh.

Anyway with just a few differences my machine has become the chalk against the previous cheese. A hard rest and forgetting about Sense was the start. Ive replaced it with SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.5. Combined with obvious backlight time adjustments, and a few 'Advanced Config' tweaks, my Touch Pro 2 has just become a different machine!

Much more smooth and resets just arent necessary.

Ive sacraficed Opera for the latest Opera Mini. More than adequate for my purposes and the interface is actually handier to use for people whos internet access is concentrated on just a few sites/ forums.

Im not on here advertising SPB by the way, just what ive found myself!

Unless you are a massive super user, i dont find the need for OCT or the like. I use MSM most of the day, regular Opera Mini, heavy SMS and occasional Word Mobile and find hte above arrangement brilliant.

Has anyone else any suggestions in the same vein that can help even more?? I am, and im sure most users are, open to minor tweaks. Flashing is a no go.

Q
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SpinalRemains:
I prefer CHT with OCT. My device absolutely flies. When it begins to lag a bit after using more than 5 apps, I just CleanRAM custom. Works like a charm. I have found that the device will work at maximum performance when installing everything to the Storage Card. Having all the RAM available for the OS keeps it faster for me. It seems that there is a performance difference when you have 70Gb as opposed to 50Gb. CleanRAM really is the greatest thing for this device.

I tried SPB Shell a few months ago, but I think CHT is much better. Theres way more customization and I find it easier to navigate. You just put your favorite apps in 3 pages. The Shell had things needlessly in different locations and into sub categories. It just didn't suit me.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SilentlyScreaming:
lol

-==-=-

I was trying to use a modded HTC Home plugin with HTC Home Customizer but ran up against too many problems, so I've returned to Sense for now. I'm hoping to flash a new ROM sometime soon, once I've reinstalled XP and 7 on my PC (I've only got Vista left as running normally, and dislike it too much to rely on it). I've also installed SPB shell on my wife's Acer e200, so was considering it, but I want to finish running some tests with the graphics drivers available here, with sense vs. sense turned off and some minor media playback issues first.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] uncleswoop:
oh, i should have said. flashing is pretty much ur only way to improve what you want.

soooo.... if flash is a no go... new device maybe?

i'm confused, i want install last froyo rom, but i don' undestand that rom....

now i have JPK rom with lagfix OCLF. I don't undestand what is voodoo, i know that OCLF after some day is no longer efficient as before-. is there some lagfix permanent ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lalaca:
Thread belongs in Q&A. Obviously.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsungleak:
I dont think you'll fix the lag permanently... Vodoo is for eclairs if i am correct, dont know if it works with 2.2's.. Use OCFL by Ryanz if you need. But tbh atm with JP6\JPM i am not even using lag fix.. dunno maybe is just my particular phone, but i havent got any lag even in my stock Eclair 2.1.. neither in JPK and now its even better in JP6.. must be luck or something.
[Captivate General] ewingr:
All of a sudden my Captivate is opening and closing my app drawer multiple times, and the phone vibrates as of I am hitting the button to do this.

I am on Cognition 2.16.

I have read that multiple vibes means that FVs are happening, but with the app drawer opening and closing like that, I'm not sure that is the case here.

Any ideas? Of something is FCing, is thee some log I can check?

I'm afraid I may need to do a completely fresh re-load.
[Captivate General] Main Target:
Not sure if this is related, but when i first got a captivate the home button was hitting itself and you could see the home button dimming as if it was pressed.

All apps would close themselves, since the home button was being pressed.

Related? I am unsure, but the vibrates are suspect.
[Captivate General] ewingr:
Did you find a resolution?
[Captivate General] ewingr:
Whatever is going on with this thing it is killing me.I'm out of town now, but when I get back, I guess I'll have to try a complete refresh, with a master clear. Doesn't seen anyone has any input, do this must not be a very prevelent problem.
[Captivate General] ewingr:
If anyone is paying attention to this little saga :p....

I think I need to exchange my phone. I have flasted back to stock build (stock even before the 'fix' that they sent out)...and I just experieneced it do some of the wierd stuff.

I think I'll finish applying 2.17 Cognition, just for kicks...but expect it to still be problematic, and will likely return it tomorrow for a new one.

By the way, I'll add: it was generally acting like it was entering various random keys. Most often, like it was hitting the BACK key. But then it would possibly back through several things, such as opening the APPS, then closing, then reopening.

I could be in XDA app, reading a post, and all of a sudden it would back out.

Really strange.
[Captivate General] vbhines:
My second unit did the exact same thing (my first unit had borked wifi). Oddly enough, mine didn't do it either until I flashed my first ROM onto it, but then again that only took five minutes from when I first opened the box. A flash back to stock didn't help. I had to exchange my unit, and have had no problems since. If you're even close to your thirty day window, run, don't walk, back to the store.
[Captivate General] ewingr:
Got the new one. Flashing mhy cognition 2.16 to it right now. Fingers crossed.

I have a HTC HD2 phone thats been running windows mobile 6.5 and recently found out that i could run android:rolleyes: on the same phone. Of course i ended up on this forum. My only question is, after searching and reading so many threads on the different releases, i am more confused:confused: than i was at first. Could someone tell me, which is the best and most stable version that i can install on my phone? I am not an android geek so excuse that.

Can someone please tell me which release works without too many issues, since i see a lot of them like, camera not working, wifi not working, robot voice etc etc. Would really appreciate.

p.s. i have been through lots of threads and can't seem to find one that clearly points to the most stable release yet.

[General Questions and Answers] phealle:
Thanks@Chopper. But what i am asking is this: i am aware that there are numerous releases of android for htc devices which are floating all over. I just want to know which one is the closest to the real deal. I mean the device works properly without too many issues. Is there one that stands out, or they all have "issues"? So i looked around and got myself Android- Energy Froyo Stone Aug 25 - and its working great, but the camera has issues, and at times the phone does not come back from sleep mode. So, any release that has all those tiny issues fixed?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shocky2:
Are there any problems flashing directly from JPK, On samfirmwares they recommend flashing to JM8 first.

I've seen people report there are no problems, but why do they recommend this?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenF1:
I struggled with JPC to JP6. I had to flash to JM1 before I could get it working.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Intratech:
SamFirmware seems like a bunch of n00bs.

I've installed every firmware without any repartition or PIT file. Just download the firmware and if you're using Odin to flash don't load any PIT file or select repartition. I just loaded the JPM stuff as PDA and flashed. No problems. Check the screenshot for a better idea if you don't understand what I'm saying.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shocky2:
Thanks for the help, I'll give that a try but first...

One more question, do I really need to remove the OCLF before flashing? Only it keeps failing to remove telling me theres not enough space.

Nevermind, got it working, but was it needed?

I went straight from jpk to jpm without any hicups. I would recommend doing a factory data wipe once you have jpm. I did it from the phone settings then again from the bootloader to be sure.

Running well. I did have to install sgs tools and do a.market fix to get my paid app back from the market.

Many thanks, flash went well, rooted with lagfix.

Yep, did factory data wipe etc once it was flashed.
[HD2 General] relic:
I have been having these random reboots for a long time with my WM 6.5, even before using Android and I decided to finally send it to repair since it's under warranty after resetting it. But here's the thing, unrelated to these symptoms, the phone dropped once and the digitizer cracked. Not so bad, it's just one line in he middle and you can hardly see it if you look at a certain angle, otherwise the touch and lcd react fine. I am afraid the repair team will try to blame the random reboots on the crack. How do you think I should approach them with this as I know they can find any excuse to make me pay. I haven't told them about the crack yet, during the phone support the tech guy noted Booting Failure (sometimes it fails to boot up even and have to remove battery for 10min) in the description. The pick up is next week.
[HD2 General] OrionCarl:
they are twats mate, ive had so much trouble with them ,4 weeks with my phone coz they want me to pay for a screen fault. Only thing you can try is say it got damaged on the way to them, I wanted to send mine in a box, but they told me a jiffy bag!so easily damaged..
[HD2 General] relic:
what was the problem with yours originally?
[HD2 General] OrionCarl:
screen fault....do a search for HTC customer service, wont find many good ones..
[HD2 General] relic:
well to be fair, your problem is related to the screen itself. But I can understand your frustration. I called them today and they said they can't guaranty anything they have to look at the device first so I am going to write a letter explaining the situation hoping it will be taken into account.

dont expect them to be curtious, best of luck!

a) Use the 3 button keypress to get into recovery and try a factory reset

c) Use your warranty

The 3 button combinations fail to work on some Galaxy S's including mine.

[Android Software Development] v3n0m:
Dear XDA folks,

a bit of a story about what the problem is exactly, and how I want to fix it:

I'm a happy owner of an HTC desire with froyo on it, which works like a charm.

There's one small problem though, my car stereo seems to be a bit picky when connecting.

My bluetooth is on, I start the car, and the phone tells me it has connected to a headset, the stereo tells me nothing is connected.

Same happens with the A2DP function, phone says it is connected, stereo doesn't detect it.

After a bit of messing around with it, I found a way to work around this, after connecting, disable and enable the bluetooth profiles (called media and handsfree in android) once, and they both work like a charm.

----

What I want to do, is make an app which checks if the device is connected to the stereo (which shouldn't be much of a problem), and then switch both of the audio profiles off for a moment (one at a time) and then back on.

Problem is, how do I switch them from my app? I've been looking at the documentation for hours, but I can't seem to find out.

The bluetoothchat sample is a great start to build a BT program I think, but I'm pretty much stuck here.

Is there someone who can point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance
[Android Software Development] v3n0m:
Nobody? I succeeded with making an app that displays the paired devices (after a bit of borowing from the BTchat sample), so that pointed me in the right direction.

Still, I'm stuck with the problem of switching the profiles/services on and off, and I'm sure one of you can help me :)

Thanks
[Android Software Development] xr4v3nx:
Hey I'm no expert but you may want to check out the app called tasker in the market, you could look into the app's codes cause from what I experienced, I see a state there that says 'if bluetooth connected...' Then you can add an event to trigger after that.it's an awesome automater app. Base the codes from there.
[Android Software Development] v3n0m:
Great :D thanks for the idea, will try that right away.

Will let you know how it turned out.

-edit-

DARN can't find options to enable/disable a2dp and handsfree in tasker, maybe I'm missing it, but so far I don't think it is there.

Thanks for the suggestion though ;)

Help?! Can't believe noone knows how to do this?

This doesnt happen on Excel Mobile 2010. The settings stays how I canged first.

Is there a fix for Word Mobile 2010? Or how can I let the settings stay how they are?

I bought a Dell Streak in the UK a month ago and brought it back to Denmark.

After installing the PC suite tool on the SD card a bunch of new processes popped up in the WinXP SP3 task manager:

TCPVBTServer.exe

After having run this OS for 4 years with no viruses I almost had a heart attack!

I did a virus scan and something got removed from the PC (sorry, I didn't write it down) and now it seems everything's quiet again.

I've been researching a little and found this thread:

What do they ACTUALLY do?

Hi,

Not sure if this is a question of a rant.

Desire about 6 Months old, been working fine but now I get absolutely no GPS lock at all.

I have tried GPS Status and gone through the menus, resetting A-Gps to no avail.

A-GPS picks up and locks on fine, perfectly accurate

Tried disabling A-GPS leaving only Satellite but nothing at all.

Nothing in Navigation, no bars at all in CoPilot.

The phone does see the GPS device, but receives zero signal from any satellite.

I have tried pretty much all Radios, and a whole bunch of Roms from Leedroid 2.2a back through the other Sense Roms, non Sense and Stock ROM

Done full resets, factory restores etc and have ran out of ideas.

I know where this will go, I will return it to non root, stock and request a Warranty return.

Orange will get it back and say, Nope...it's water damage (seems to be a common theme for mobile repairs)

There is no damage, the phone has been well protected in all the time I have owned it, rubber covers, screen protectors etc.

I work Office based so it isn't as if I am outside using it either.

Personally I think this is heat related, not water/moisture. When using the GPS it does get warm. I think too warm.

I would like there to be a plug in GPS inside the phone which could be replaced but it may be integrated which effectively makes my phone a doorstop (for what I wanted it for).

EDIT: Just looked at a good disassembly video on You tube. Yep! there is no plug in GPS unit. :(
