yes, you can use the hands-free (with or without the headphone part) as a microphone when recording video... quality is a little better than the internal microphone but still not really good...

thank you argnom... . now i know what to search for.. :)

there seem to be some adapters for the iphone that split the trrs connector into seperate microphone/headset connectors... maybe i will try one of these... or is the wiring different on the x10 from the iphone?

edit: think i found the one i need (IF the wiring is the same as for the iphone...)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzykim:
I bought my GF an HD2 from flebay, brand new, you know the type of ad "unwanted upgrade".

OK OK I know :o

It hasn't been blocked so the account is still running OK (seller didn't like the HD2 wanted cash to run an iPhone on the account)

Problem is, after 9months the HD2 has started overheating and rebooting when using data or GPS.

If My Location tries to update it reboots, sometimes goes into a continuous reboot loop, only taking the battery out will stop it.

It gets very warm around where the sim card is when this happens.

We've tried a hard reset, no different :(

Question: Will HTC honour the guarantee (less than 9mnths old) when I'm not the original owner or should I send it to a repair centre and cough up (I guess it needs a new Mboard :( )

Has anyone been in this situation?

Have I now got an unsaleable brick?

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnerz:
I doubt it, have you tried the latest stock rom? that might change the way it runs

Or a not stock rom and radio from this site?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzykim:
Hi, thanks but I'm pretty sure it's a hardware fault :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conantroutman:
You've checked for a bent battery pin?......
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzykim:
Thanks

Yep, and cleaned the battery terminals, tried a different battery (out of my HD2).

The phone works OK if we cool it down by leaving it in a cold room for a couple of hours, but then as soon as it gets some hard usage, long phone call, data, GPS it starts to heat up and reboot again.

It just occurred to me we haven't tried a different sim in it, might try that and see if it's any different!

EDIT: GF hasn't used the phone for about a week now, now it won't get past the white HTC boot screen, just continuously looping.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] herukano:
yes they will honour it , i was in exact same situation and they told me it was 100% covered by the warranty , although the blanket email said to include proof of purchase customer service told me not to worry about it . had it back within 5 working days.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
definitely sounds like the motherboard. Same problem with mine. T-mobile bought me a new phone.

I think the warranty date period is based off of the imei and when the phone was shipped out. I would call htc and ask. Couldn't hurt
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzykim:
Thanks for the replies, I suppose it's worth a try.

I'll let you know how I get on with HTC
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cozzykim:
Fixed :D

Update:

We sent our HD2 back for repair, HTC picked it up and returned it no charge.

Motherboard replaced.

Fault described on the repair document as "MB Current leakage, battery overheat, MB replace."

Totally excellent service.

Thanks HTC we love you :)

Right now I am just using the mail app that is part of the OS on the phone. I am having issues. I belong to a lot of forums. The links in the e-mails are not working so I can not click on the HTML link. I did a search and K9 was said it did not work with free hotmail accounts like I have.

I am wondering is there a better mail app out there for hotmail? I would like it to deplay the links in the e-mail correct so I can click on them and go to my forums.

Thanks for any help
[Android Apps and Games] whatsitsnamenow:
K-9 does work with hotmail. You just have to use POP3 instead of Activesync for hotmail. Meaning you have to poll to get hotmail and it will not be sync.

I'm having an issue lately where certain system apps are spiking in CPU usage and causing my Evo to slow, stutter, and occasionally freeze for short periods.

Watchtower is showing Settings Storage, com.android.providers.settings, is consuming anywhere from 30 to 80% cpu.

Watchdog is showing Android System 30 to 50% CPU and Android Core Apps 30 to 80%.

I'm fairly confused why I'm showing those apps to be consuming so much processor power.

I'm running Virus Airbourne rc5, king kernel #11, launcher pro.

Anyone have any ideas or know of where i could look for more information? My searches have shown a few people having this problem with Launcher Pro, but nothing conclusive.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ASimmons:
So heres two of the themes I've ported lately.

Backup before you install, there might be minor 9patch issues, you might need to change your cmparts colors!... and please don't complain about something missing.

Soon I'll release a way for just about any theme to be injected into your rom with out have to worry about frameworks, roms and the other issues that arise from theme porting... this will be built off of the script I'm using now. Why not release this script? because its tricky to use and I'm going to make it friendlier to use by putting a gui on it.

These or for cm6 stable.

I take no credit for these themes only the port.

I won't be doing nightlies, but anyones is welcome to use the source to port it to a nightly, just respect the original creators work and give them props.

Further Ports:

As you guys might know I have an Evo now but I'll still stick around and help out my buddies in the Hero forums... so I can't port every HDPI theme, my porting technique isn't 100% but the script does alot of the work. The script literally takes 30 minutes to an hour to run.... so in short I probably wont or can't port every theme out there as is just not possible but some themes port very easy, if one of you guys see and issue with a theme I post here just fix it and repost it cause I won't be fixing it.

INexus:

Would something like this work on CrunchySoft 2.1.7?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ASimmons:
send me a link and I'll look, like I said this will port any rom's png over to any other rom. The biggest issue are the 9patch's and the xml edits. xml edits can be gotten around by porting to a rom/theme that is similar but the 9 ptach porting is so tricky and its never 100%, but it does most of the work and if you do see and issue in a 9 patch all you really need to do then is decompile the 9patch and fix the strechies.

Hey people.

Had a question for the smart people that live here.

When I am at home on the couch or downstairs in the computer room.i have very low signal or no signal. If I restart my phone I can see the signal bars go from full to none. My phone picks up a faint signal from hspa network (bell network) and keeps going from 3G to hspa. Before I had the galaxy s I had the touch pro on just the 3G network and did not have problems like this.

Does anyone know of a way that I could lock the galaxy s into the 3G network? I tried going to settings» network» mobile network and selecting one of the bell networks but gives me the error that i am not allowed to select the network, it will automatically choose it for me.

There's a .zip at the bottom of the first post with the battery graphics. I just really like the gauge one.

I did try to do it myself, but it's apparently just a little beyond what I know how to do at this point.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gomorrah:
It would totally depend on what ROM youre using. I use that battery meter Screenshot but I had to compile it into the framework because the ROM I'm using didnt have it. If youre using a ROM that already has a meter in the battery, then all you'd have to do is replace the images.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] egotek:
Oh like one that uses the circle battery or something similar?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gomorrah:
Yep. Any ROM that is already configured to report the battery in 1% increments, whether its a circle or a battery with the number in it, whatever. Its already set up, so all you have to do is replace the .pngs. If its not, then youd have to recompile your framework to allow for the changes.

[Streak 5 Android Development] doubleburgerbarr:
I've an O2 streak, Firmware 1.6 build 3883 the baseband ends in -EU, I'm an O2 UK customer oem version ends in 21

After much researching I decided to upgrade to 2.1 so downloaded the O2 upgrade (update-6941-21.pkg) it seems this is the best build.

Copied file to sd card, renamed to update.pkg , double checked the md5 sum was correct then powered off the phone. I'm using Linux to copy files to the sdcard.

Held down both volume keys while powering on, selected second option (update), screen went black but a light could be seen behind it.

At this stage I'm not sure what to expect, the phone doesn't appear to do anything. None of the instructions tell you how long to wait, I expected 10 to 15 minutes max, after an hour and no change I reluctantly pulled the battery, the phone booted straight up into the old operating system (phew).

Tried an official 1.6 rom 4399 build, exactly the same result.

Is my phone being treat as if it has a custom rom is one idea that I'm considering, anyone had a similar experience, anyone offer any suggestions ?.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Charles::
It's not as simple as just putting the .img file on your SD card. You have to flash a stock recovery. There's a sticky called "Complete Guide to Flashing Your Streak" or something close, that will hold all your answers.

[Streak 5 Android Development] doubleburgerbarr:
Thanks for the reply.

It's not apparent to a newbie that to upgrade from a stock rom to another stock rom that you need to flash a stock recovery, at least it wasn't to me (being thick ?).

Maybe it's just a little piece of knowledge that people who've done this before take for granted and it never crosses their mind that newcomers would think otherwise.

Before you replied I managed to upgrade by doing as you said, I flashed the stock recovery with fastboot, put update.pkg on the sd card, held my breath and lo and behold I saw a screen that allowed me to continue (I'm going to try and take a photo of this for other newcomers benefit as in all the posts I read nothing indicated what you should see when upgrading).

I tried upgrading from build 8443 to 2.1 but ended up stuck at the Dell logo, (this was an early build that many people said was better than the last 2.1 release).

Tried upgrading again (different version) and finally managed to get 2.1 on the Streak.

Now for 2.2 :)
