What color RESET BUTTON was yous guys' phones? Mine was red.

I'm definitely going to go right bac to my last set up (in sig) because that was working awesome. And I hope it breaks again so i can get the G2! BIG LOLLERS!

If you were on TMOBILE and losing or having connection issues, definitely check your APN settings. The default ones are not for TMO.

hd2 loose touch

Hi.

I have the same problem, but i found that is not software related, because i been using android and winmo for long time and only start having problems 2 months ago.

sometimes i get it working, by just switch of and on, others by reseting, and sometimes also in windows mobile is not working.

i think this can be hardware related (some connector problem.)

i will try to disassemble mine and feedback later

Kind regards from Portugal
[HD2 General] asasdeportugal:
hd2 loose touch

Hi. Some new Hints.

now more often I get touch issues in both OS (win Mo and android) so its not software but hardware. Sometimes i try to move the display by inserting a plastic between the housing and display and it works, so it means its a connector issue, but I haven't yet disassembled it.

Does anyone know how the display is connected? is it by a foil? maybe its dirty or damaged
[HD2 General] 11PCX:
I was having similar issues so I started researching on how to replace the digitizer as that's what I thought I was going to have to do. I rebooted and removed the battery and repeated that a couple times and mine started working again. But as far as replacing it, if it's a T-Mo USA search "How to Replace the Screen on Your HTC HD2" and there's a good guide and it's pretty simple. Sorry but I don't have enough posts to link to it. If it's not a T-Mo then it has to be soldered.
[HD2 General] siarka:
Go to seller, send to warranty
[HD2 General] URIDEM3:
Ive been searching extensively on this issue, most are saying is hardware which I think it is..best thing to do is send it back if under warranty! i bought mine thru private sale and just only 2 WEEKS of owning it touchscreen was totally unresponsive! this happened when I was on it playing games most of time while plugged to the wall charger one night..next day, was just stuck on the security screen and couldnt slide it to open! someone also said that this phone overheats alot if its on android (like mine) and somehow affects the digitizer and the red button to fail causing the infamous touchscreen freeze..so for those unfortunate like me with no warranty, I suggest replacing digitizer and see if that helps? im waiting for mine to come so we shall see! cheers

MOD EDIT: Tethering instructions at post 11 onwards :)
[Focus General] Ren13B:
The chances of this happening without 3rd party socket support is extremely low if not impossible. Until Microsoft allows sockets tethering will have to come from Microsoft themselves.
[Focus General] jdgay22:
i though that that the phone would be capable , but that there would be no support or apps unless the cell service requested
[Focus General] Ren13B:
That rumor turned out to be false. At launch WP7 will not tether but I'm sure we will see an update within the next couple of months that will add it. Since updates come from Microsoft directly I don't think carriers can block it.
[Focus General] naplesbill:
I wouldn't say that carriers can't block it. If you look at the iPhone, it was blocked in the carrier settings on the phone.
[Focus General] alcheng:
Also, the carriers has a way detect you are using the phone as tethering or web-browsing, if your data plan doesn't include tethering, the tethering feature means nothing.
[Focus General] oneimunky:
Doing some research to upgrade from my dumb ass x10 (was my in between phone) and found on Optus Australia site that Omnia 7 can be used as a tether, so I'm guessing that they are not blocking it.

But hey who knows till I get this next week bundled with an Xbox Kinect - woot.
[Focus General] Ren13B:
There's a 99% chance that the site is wrong. WP7 does not support tethering of any kind right now.
[Focus General] oneimunky:
Yes I know wp7 does not support tethering now, but it will.

Optus have decided not to charge for the service like some providers do/will and I like that :-)
[Focus General] wildbilll:
I tether occasionally with my ATT Tilt running WM6.5.

I am about to receive my Focus this week, and I am confident that there will be the ability to tether this phone soon. History is on my side. In the meantime, I will pop my sim card into the Tilt if I need to tether.

The iPhone was a locked OS at first, the jailbreaks came soon, as did tethering.

As far as ATT being able to detect when it tethers, I doubt it.

In the past, the theory was they could detect the user agent string for the web browser as "not a mobile browser" but since the WP7 browser is a full browser, I see it as a simple matter for the tethering app to replace the user agent string on the fly, so the data stream appears to be for the bundled browser and not a desktop browser. Your laptop will browser will give you a normal experience on each page.

ATT has a money clamp on the data usage anyway, so I doubt they really care that much since as you would hit the 5 GB limit of the laptop tethering plan, you would have paid $65 ($25 for 2GB+$10 for 1GB+$10 for 1GB+$10 for 1GB). They have lost nothing.

Ok so here is my question

I just got me a Lg Fathom

With WM 6.5.3

Most of the apps, themes and what not are for HTC phone

So my question is very very simple

What can I do to my Lg Fathom?

I want to customize it to make it look hmmmm not so default looking

I see many things on this site but I am very unsure what I can and can't do

Please help me

Maybe link me to a few things that will help me in learning wm6.5.3

I am currently also thinking about buying a Fathom. Since its the only available 1Ghz phone with keyboard and headphone connector (no radio and with that not TMC data for navigation though).

But yes...what can you do with it. Ist it possible to run Android like on other HTC phones? What about underclocking the CPU in standby like nuedynamicclock, i suppose it wont work with the snapdragon?

Falthom support

Have you tried looking over at the other place?

(ppcgeeks) is one of the few sites that will help the unfortunate owners of this fine device.

I was able to use a program called quick menu (found here, I think).

Then overide the start button to kill the native start menu.

This is about all one cando to gain about 45 mb of ram.

Now that L(low) G(grade) has been invaded by north korea or something, the "Updater" now borks my USB connections. You can't revert back to v5, so we are stuck with buggy v7 and data that keeps disconnesting.

Vomitrizen won't support this device even tho it's still sold on their site.

UPDATE: Emergency Download Mode Code

Since the "New & Improved" crap for an update utillity forced itself upon my PC,

I'm sure that at least 50 of us have suffered through this.

I found this:

http://www.lg-phones.org/lg-fathom-v...comment-page-1

Mauricio on 9 July, 2011 at 8:56 pm # How to enter into LG Fathom VS750 Emergency Download Mode Steps:

1. Turn off the LG Fathom VS750

2. Press “5″

3. Press “Power button” while “pressing 5 ” keystrokes.

4. Check the front LED is green and the screen displays “Emergency download.”

You can now connect your phone using the USB cable and use fashing tools to fix your LG Fathom VS750.

Caution: Remember to backup your files before flashing. This will erase all of your personal data.

And guess what, this actually works...

Just try it and see. If you want to abort the download, just tap the reset button...

Who ever wrote that bit about "pull the battery, then press a few buttons---- HOLD IT RIGHT THERE ---

What is going to happen with battery out of the unit?

You could press the Davinci Code and nothing will happen without power...

Unless you posses the "Glowing One Perk".

Pluging the power cord into a unit without the battery only prompts you to "Insert a Battery".

So, MUCH THANKS to Mauricio.

I have been searching for this code for some time now, but for some reason it finally apeared.

Now if only some developers would find it in their hearts to help us root this baby, "Oh Happy DAY".

ENJOY..

The color fix is new, not in the old voodoo kernels. The new one is sweet, just as fast as voodoo although the benchmark will tell you otherwise. Voodoo will be added to the new kernel eventually, so you cant wait it out and be just fine or flash away, follow the fncking instructions though.

[Fascinate General] ibebyi:
Not at all trying to be a downer because voodoo color looks pretty awesome, but what do you mean by "just as fast as voodoo". Are you saying that the kernel is OC'ed to be similar in performance to the stock volt/clock speed voodoo kernel, or that it handles I/O differently like a voodoo ext4 fix...

I guess what i'm saying is that your post is a bit vague and i was wondering if you could clarify.. Thanks ;)

[Fascinate General] Boushh:
SAMOLED Displays by manufacture display colors with a blueish tint. You can even see this tint in the reflection of the display when the screen is off. The Voodoo color fix attempts to remedy this. At this point it will only fix the color when the backlight is set to 100%.

Any news about Colour fix? When will it be released? This full brightess setting is pretty much useless, because - well, it´s just too bright...

hey guys,

This is one of my first few apps for android (I've already done some rigorous stuff with sensor api and whatnot that im pretty comfortable with java).The thing is, i come from windows mobile and we had this thing called RAPI, which is a thing used to comunicate to activesync from c# in the computer. Is there some sort of thing like RAPI out therer for android? How would i approach in accessing the android information/file system without placing android in usb file system mode. Is there some sort of USB I/O example from computer/phone?

-Thanks

so...any help here?
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
What exactly are you trying to do? I'm not familiar with RAPI so I don't quite understand what you need. You can access the android file system (linux based) and all, but a stock android enforces user/group permissions as any unix filesystem does.

I appreciate any suggestions and advices.

Thank You
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] stevedebi:
The stock ROMs are generally pretty bloated and prone to freezing. I would recommend that you read the Hard SPL thread, then go ahead and flash the Hard SPL. This will enable to you flash any ROM you like.

Once you have done that first step, just choose a ROM (look over the various choices in this section). You can always flash a different choice later.

WARNING: Make sure your phone is GSM before flashing a ROM from this forum!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] steviewevie:
^^^^ what he said

You've got nothing to lose and everything to gain by flashing a custom ROM - you can always try another one or go back to stock if you don't like it. Just make sure you back up any data that you want to restore (e.g. contacts, messages etc) before you flash.

All the info you need are in the stickies - e.g. the HardSPL thread for flashing HardSPL, and the "Flashing your First GSM Rhodium ROM" thread.

If you're not sure which ROM to pick, you could always just pick one of the most popular ones to start with, based on the assumption there must be a fairly good reason for those to be the more popular ones.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Goliath.ro:
what I did

Hey

I am about to flash my phone too. I also have it for more then a year ( since last September ) and i did a bit of research just for piece of mind

The most important step is Hard SPL this is so if something goes horribly wrong u can still re-flash it to try and repair the damage ( someone confirm this: there no hardware damage done when u flash , its all just software), besides its also needed in order to flash custom roms aka cooked roms.

For what custom rom to get I did the folowing: sorted the threads based on stats ( posts / views ) and looked at the most popular ones and something struck: Energy rom by NRGZ28 is BY FAR the most popular one, so it must be good for a 1st try then some new unknown cooked rom

Also if you would like to get more info I found this youtube video ( 20 mins / 2 parts ) very informative:

Since I'm new and can't post links search for " Real Time ROM Flashing " and u will find it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] redpoint73:
HardSPL removes the SPL lock which normally only allows flashing of ROMs officially released by your carrier. Without it, you won't be flashing anything, except official ROM updates from your carrier. Yes, HardSPL allows you to run Task29, which formats/wipes the memory. And in some cases this can help you recover from a bad flash. Sometimes flashing back to the stock ROM can help you recover as well.
