I'm using 3 in my HD2.. I was using the "unlimited" data plan with 500MB quota.. yes, it's unlimited, with a quota.. so when I exceed the quota, the speed goes all the way down to 64kbps.. :(

the price for that data plan is around 25k IDR (about 2,7 USD)

now I'm using the "unlimited" data plan with more quota, 1GB.. it's priced 35k IDR (around 3,8 USD).. it's the cheapest data plan in my country, with reasonable speed (rarely get more than 1mbps though)..

I use most of those quota for YouTube, downloads from market, browsing, using google maps, emails, and IM..

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if there's any apps out there that will allow us to save locations in Maps. I did some search and came across this article:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=5079

Basically Maps does not have a save location feature currently.

I'm also looking for a feature that will allow us to save directions from A to B for offline viewing or future reference.

Thank you everyone!

Ok, if I am missing something you guys can flame me for ever.

but....

go to ur contacts.. how do you call them from there?

u can edit them, get their nifty updates that i could really care less about. but you cannot initiate the call from your contacts view.

you have to go to your home page or the next page, then hit the phone tile then search in phone book at that point.

Which brings me to another point.. every touch phone I have used, even old non touch nokias let you either scroll on the side of the list to the name you want faster then scrolling through the entire alphabet, or type the letters of names to jump to them.

Both of those functions I do not see..

The more I use this phone, its becoming a glorified tile play thingy with a simple phone feature... am i missing something great here?
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
To start a call... you tap the text that says "call mobile" or whichever number you are trying to call under the contact's entry. That text seems rather self explanatory...

And to jump quickly to a certain letter, you tap any of the letter headings, and then tap the letter you want to jump to.
[HD7 General] poopilot:
Also, there's a search symbol at the top of the contacts page, allowing you to search within contacts .. or, you could press the search hard key when in contacts view.
[HD7 General] rysky007:
Thanks guys, did a reboot and then it started showing numbers for my contacts, when I first imported them, it showed their names, and profile to click on but no numbers or options to call or text them.

The scroller is a bit odd, cause if ur half way through the B's for example u have to get down to C, catch that little blue C and then select N's if that is what is needed.

Good luck doing that on the high way.

Question on email, how do you select all? on HD2, you go to options and select all and it would select all the emails listed, and easy to remove or delete.

Also how do you view several email accounts without having to go back to the home page tiles?

I run 3 diff email addies for my businesses, and really annoying to having to go go to home page every time to change which one Im viewing.

Crazy the book sais nothing of this.

Thanx

I have added my Live contact and outlook contact into my phone.

Is there a feature which allow me to filter and hide all my live contact.

I stored all my business contact in outlook, having live contact is expanding my contact list and making me confuse.. :D
[HD7 General] rob_p:
If your live account is the default account that you set the phone up with then no, I don't think there's a way to hide them at the moment.
[HD7 General] nrfitchett4:
have you read the manual or clicked on the text that shows up on first boot with tips and tricks???

If you click on people, you can click on the first blue letter/symbol to get the popup of the alphabet to sort.

Maybe you shouldn't drive and talk on your phone?

You cannot combine all the emails on this phone.

You also cannot select all messages, but if you press on the left of the message, check boxes appear and you can select or deselect messages, then delete, mark as read, mark as unread, move to folder.
[HD7 General] rysky007:
ive read the manual, the full one that u dl of of htc site,

the reason i ask is because select all in email, or select diff email accounts from eamil view pane is basic features that ever phone I have ever used has had, even old nokias that were not smart phones, HD2 has that ability.

On select all, hell every phone dating back from the old 6190's had that on SMS and email.

Just surprised that this phone does not have that, its like many basic features are missing from a release model, which to me is dumb, why release a half done product.

Im not asking for special features, but if they put out the phone in a hurry for the holiday season, at least make it competitive with other OS's.

Ill give them that its simple, almost to simple cant even choose normal colors for your tiles, just girly ones, or make the colors different in ways that it looks interesting, but features like select all, copy, paste, multi tasking and (in contacts list ) the ability to scroll through letter choices without having to catch a blue letter should be there. I have over 340 contacts, so if i am half way through my list of J's and I need to jump to N, i have to scroll up or down to get to I or down to K to then select one and get the letters mode, then select which letter and hope its the right one while doing it on the move. Not efficient.

[Legend General] moonwitch:
Hi,

I apologize if it's the wrong forum or if I missed something in my search over the forums (and internet).

Current setup :

HTC Legend rooted, flashed with Azure 1.0.1 (cyanogen 6.0)

Kernel 2.6.29

Baseband 47.26.35.04u_7.05.35.26L

Issue :

For some reason I can't get my 3G connection stable. eg. When I enable Wifi - 3G drops (which is set up that way), but when I disable Wifi 3G doesn't come back up. Even though the settings are correct.

I'm having a hard time getting any mobile data correctly going, it generally requires me to enable/disable wifi and reboot the phone several times.

Basically I've tried factory resets, checking the settings (config of mobile networks too), it doesn't stay in 2G mode, ... I've test with other Cyanogen based roms and it's the exact same issue. Is it possible this is due to a radio being wrong or is it possible it's actually the phone?

So:

- 2G only is DISabled

- Mobile data is enabled

- wifi off

- settings (mobile connection parameters) are correct

- tried different roms

- checked in places I know I should get a good connection (My provider is Telenet, they use the Mobistar network, my previous provider was mobistar. So the coverage should remain the same.)

I am at my wits end and do apologize if this is a stupid question, but I can't think of anything else that could interfere with this.
[Legend General] Rapier:
Have you tried to leave the 2G/3G settings by default? That is, not to disable 2G. It is anyway switching to the best it can aquire, so if you have strong signal you should get allways 3G. I never had these problems with any ROM I've tried...nightly, Azure, RC1/RC2
[Legend General] mcuppens:
Check this link, and join the others with the same problem...

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2207
[Legend General] ananthm2k5:
Quick solution : put one of HTCs widgets for mobile network on your homescreen and as soon as you turn WiFi off toggle the mobile network widget and 3G should start working again . It's a hit or miss though.
[Legend General] moonwitch:
Must have used the wrong keywords >.< Sorry. Though thank you for the link, it is EXACTLY the prob I am encountering. At least now I know it's not the rooting that caused it.

About the HTC widget : I've used it, but it's indeed a hit or miss. Best solution seems to switch to 2G and switch back to 3G that way.

Leaving all the settings at standard (and the most recent flash to the CM RC1) helped with the overall connectivity though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisa86:
Hi,

I had my G2 rooted ages ago and was using custom ROMS right up until yesterday. I'm due to get a Desire HD in the post today so was resetting phone to give my girlfriend and thought it easier if she had the Stock ROM.

So I put that back on using the official updater, back to 1.5... However I can't update it to Eclair. Whenever it downloads the update and tries to install it I get a black screen with a phone and a triangle with an exclamation mark :(

I've most definitely updated with the OTA before... could it be because it was once rooted?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyDelta:
Try going to your country's HTC homepage and download the official 2.1 RUU from there.

If it isn't there, maybe you can find it here http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Hero/

That is where I found my Hong Kong ruu.

Then, also install HTC Sync to make sure your computer will recognize your phone.

Then run the RUU with your phone connected to your computer via USB.

I recently did this and it worked perfectly.

Good luck.

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisa86:
I have found Stock 2.1 ROM on here which could be of use but now I can't seem to install the recovery image so I can install them...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisa86:
Well I have managed to root it once again as nothing else seemed to work... I then tried to use ROM Manager to install a Custom Recovery like I did before but all I get once it has flashed is the exclamation mark...

I recall last time I used this I ended up using an alternative one it offers at the bottom (RA 1.7?) but this hasn't improved the situation either...

Any thoughts?

Damn Samsung! ! !

Exactly 24 hours after I flashed the latest modem and rom, the infamous gps bug is back in full force. Don't see any satellites, no lock, no nothing. I knew that this was too good to be true...
[Epic 4G General] drunix:
I never had a GPS bug until just recently. It worked great from factory, it worked great after I flashed the first froyo leak from firon (w/o a modem update). As part of updating to the latest froyo leaks, I flashed the modem using the guide to flash using odin/PDA setting with a pit and a tar. Now my GPS is hosed entirely :)

Others suggested flashing the modem.bin instead of PIT/TAR combo using the phone slot in odin. I did that, which just got me a "Baseband Unknown" and no connectivity. Flashed back to DK17 via PIT/TAR and I'm back up and running, but without GPS still.

I'd be interested if anyone has any thoughts on whether they think flashing the .bin should actually help or not; and further, why I get baseband unknown when I do flash the bin.

Thanks
[Epic 4G General] herzzreh:

I think the things he is experiancing is more than lag its as above mentioned upgrading can leave things slow and reseting clearing cache etc is recomended.

Turn phone off then hold down power volume up and the middle button till it goes into recovery also you could use quick boot from the market its free and it will boot into recovery if the 3 button mode doesnt work.

No it wont put you back to 2.1 but may wipe contacts apps etc but the plus is a clean start.

Hi @ all,

I'm interested in getting an Android phone next year. I've already tested some and the OS is really great, but there are still some questions open for me.

One is: Is it possible to set my location in Android manually, that means without the Google location service?

Reason is that I do not want to send my location data to Google (why should they get a moving profile of me?) - I don't agree with such spy practices...

Please do not discuss about my opinion about this, I simply want to have an answer to my question - possible yes or no, and if yes: how can it be done?

Thanks

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NeoDriver:
Hey,

Im using a Desire using RCMixHD v12 and there are options under Settings>Location. There, you can turn off using GPS and turn off using Wireless networks (Wi-Fi and mobile networks). Im not too sure if there are any others but that should suffice for you I would assume?

Also, with most applications you can set a specific location rather than using "Current Location"

Kris
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zaphod_b_1:
This is unfortunately not exactly what I was thinking about. Let me describe what I mean:

I.e. look at a HTC Desire or a Wildfire with a Standard ROM (2.1/2.2) - when you set up the device it is asking you "Do you want to activate the "my location" service?" and as description it shows "Allow the device to send your location data to Google, without this service your location cannot be displayed." or somehow similar.

What I do not like is that my location is sent to Google, because I do not know which data is sent along with this - i.e. together with IMEI and phone number they could get a moving profile of the user.

When you leave this deactivated, your device is i. e. not able to show the location you are situated at under the Sense flip clock and you cannot force it to show the location because it always asks again if you want to activate that stupid Google location service.

Under Sense for Windows Mobile (I'm using a HTC Topaz actually) you can set your location manually (via the weather application and the clock settings), even if the lovation service is switched off. The device then shows weather and time of the manually set location in the sense clock, but doesn't send it to the big G.

This is what I want to know, I hope the description was clearly enough...

Sorry for the bad English, I'm not a native speaker...

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedijackie:
FYI to Impaler, your VVM version in your sig works for those in areas where an official update has not rolled through yet.

Don't know if you are aware, but Sprint recently updated the VVM software to version T.5.1.0.48 (here in TX it was updated the last week of October). Note that Sprint CSR will not be able to help you reset it unless you are on a Sense ROM. Period.

Two options to fix on your non-Sense ROM... there is an updated .apk floating around on these boards (might need to PM someone for it). Get it and install via your file manager.

Or...

Other way is to nandroid your current ROM, then flash a Sense ROM like Fresh's most current. Then, update your PRL and Profile, then go into the VVM and press Menu and update Sprint VVM.

Then, either try to nandroid back to your original ROM and check to see if that does it (haven't tried that, but it might work)... or else... yes, you will need to pull the updated com.coremobility.app.vnotes from the Sense ROM and install the pulled .apk into your new ROM.

Hope this helps.
