Having had my DHD for a week (very happy btw) I've now got an odd problem with Locations.

Today I've started getting a notification

"Map update required"

When I click on it tells me "To use online map services, you must have the latest version of the map. Please download an updated map and try again. Tap Download to update United Kingdom, Ireland"

Clicking download just produces "No matched map - unable to find any matching map. Please download this map manually."

I can't find either of those maps then in the list to download them, presumably because they are already installed.

If I add another map then that country appears on the update list as well.

Any ideas? Anyone seen this before.

Same symptoms here.:(
[Desire HD General] Pie1862:
Newbie here,

I've had exactly the same issue. Decided to try downloading Netherlands map just as a test and that seems to have installed OK (3D buildings etc.)

Hopefully it's just an error soon to be corrected.
[Desire HD General] lostboy42:
Hmm. Seems to have gone away all on its own after 3 or 4 hours. Maybe a non-issue after all.

Not device related but coverage issue :rolleyes:

[Windows Phone 7 General] jackson741:
My highscore before the update is 31614 but since the update ive only been able to get 30414 and 29969.

[Windows Phone 7 General] bluejuice1:
My best is 43 000 (on the latest release).

Those damned purple ones get me every time!
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
if you bounce a view times on the same purple one the next will come real close to the one you bounce on :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
I never played a game but this one is for me really addictive , its so simple that its cool and I mean real cool :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
39919 , I can kill my self :mad:

I want to have the 40K :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Yeah, but if you are unlucky and get a section with the disappearing white ones right above the purple ones you cannot just sit (or rather jump) there waiting for the next purple one to appear directly above your head. ;)

My current highscore is 41469 (12/02/10) Bought this addictive game yesterday. :)

After 58.564 (12/06/10), as of today my new high score is 91.114 (12/08/10) :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
LOL , how on earth did you do that ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] digime:
I just made 61119. Intense.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Haha, I don't know. I was happy to reach 60k and then I just kept on jumping. ;) It appears that the difficulty does not increase anymore once you hit 60k. In fact for me the hardest part is somewhere between 40k and 60k. I have no scores in the 60, 70 or 80k range, but I just managed to achieve another new personal best:

97.572 (12/09/10)
[Windows Phone 7 General] digime:
Out of interest is that with the updated version? The update definately made things more difficult.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
That was with the older version. I just updated to 1.6 today. However, I did not notice any difference yet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mod Monkeys:
Hi guys,

nice to see that you like the game. The new update 1.6 didn't change any gameplay aspects, it really was just a fix for some issues ingame.

One question: does anyone have issues with saving the highscore after the 1.6 update? I received 2 messages concerning this problem.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
I didn't have problems , but I didn't get a new high score (place 8) and that worked.

is it possible to make a verification mechanism for hight scores ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mod Monkeys:
Ok I found out that it's a problem with the German date format! If you live outside the US DO NOT UPDATE! I will send in a fix today, but it might take some time to get validated!

An online highscore and verification system is currently being planned.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
your the man :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] lumpaywk:
only just got this game so will play for a bit before posting my top score lol nut just wanted to say how great it is :) top game though to make it perfect i would recommend a quick graphics update then add achievements as a live game :) could co for a sort of angry birds styling. this is only my opinion though an as it is this is a brilliant and addictive game.
[Windows Phone 7 General] digime:
Yeah, sorry.ni hadn't noticed the 1.6 update. I was refering to the earlier one.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Hey,

I haven't had any problems with saving highscores after installing 1.6. Although I gotta say that I have set everything to English on my WP7, because the German language on a phone (or any other technical device) just sucks big time.

An online highscore system would be awesome. Also what would be nice is if we had background makers in the game for every entry on the highscore list, not just the highest score. I mean not as big as the "New Highscore" marker, but rather a smaller text on the side stating the date at which this height has been achieved before.
[Windows Phone 7 General] WCFields:
My Omnia 7 uses a german date format and there is one quirk with the scoreboard: the last (10th) rank is not updated properly. Mine still stands at a mere 2.619 points, while the ninth is already at 47.714.

Love the game! The animation when you achieve a new highscore is fantastic. It would be motivating to have something similar with ranks 2 to 10.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mod Monkeys:
As I said, do NOT update to 1.6, 1.5 indeed leaves the last spot of the highscore with your worst score, but that's what I wanted it to be. I changed that to something with 10 top scores and 1 "Fail" aka worst score because many people thought it currently is a bug.

1.7 is in the review process, but it will take some time. Changing the Date-Format to US-Standard works as kind of a hotfix and fixes the bug until 1.7 is online.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Yeah! I just managed to get to 100k! :D

101.219 (12/12/10)
[Windows Phone 7 General] lumpaywk:
34369 people should only post real scores how sad is your life when you have a make it up
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
34369 people? What are you referring to?
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
LOL , "34369" is his highscore , and after that he thinks that you lie about that score of over 100K :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
lol wtf? :D For what reasons should I be posting fake scores here?! :confused:
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
your on the first post :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Cool, thanks :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
actually it is really frustrating :) your lowest score is higher as my highest score :D

+/- 30k is real complicated for me , my highest is 46K and I have one with 45K
[Windows Phone 7 General] lumpaywk:
I guess I owe an apology to freedee I didn't see you posted the actual score and saw the 100k and just thought omg its started but it turns out you just a bouncy bird legend.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Haha, no big deal.. just keep on trying and you'll get better and better. At first I though it would be very hard to get to 60k, now I've more than doubled that.

Just topped my highest score again:

126.569 (12/13/10)

It would be really nice to have an online score table directly on the device. There must be plenty of people out there with with higher scores, they're just not here on xda-developers. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
LOL , 150K and I update the first post for you:D
[Windows Phone 7 General] banjuu:
First of all: Hi. I'm new here, but since a while reader here in the Windows Phone 7 section.

So, it seems that you need an opponent...here I am ;)

My best score is 124.314. Not yet 1st place, but I'm working on it :rolleyes:
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
wow , the first to hit 150K is on the first post :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] banjuu:
Made it!

154.369 :D

I'll upload a snapshot later.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
where is the snapshot :) I need to update the first post

and the first post is updated half :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Wow nicely done. Good to see there is some competition. :D I'm still struggling to get past this 126k score, haven't had much time playing lately though...
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Guess it's time to update the first post again. ;)

196,219 (18/12/2010)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
:D ,just look at the first post.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Thanks. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
on prob , but you need to make a 200K now :)

I still didn't get higher as 47K :( , I need to play more I think :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Haha yeah, I hope that someone else posts a 200k score though, for motivational reasons. ;)

47k isn't that bad. Just keep on trying and you will be at 100k in no time. I can tell you that the difficulty does NOT increase any more once you get past 50k-60k. From there on it's just a matter of how much longer you can keep concentrated. The situation where I failed at my 196k score (which took almost 20 mins btw.) was a situation that could have easily occured at 30k as well.

Thanks for keeping us entertained! Personally, I'd wish for some statistics in Doodle Jump style.

BTW: my best score is now 166.639, which sounds ridiculous since the second best is only 61.919.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FreeDee:
Yeah, statistics would be really cool.

[Windows Phone 7 General] WCFields:
Wow, I just made it to 305.219! My hands are still shaking...

FreeDee where are you we need some 400K screens :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mod Monkeys:
Congratz to 300k!

By the way, version 2.0 is on it's way. The approval might take some time due to christmas.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:

[Windows Phone 7 General] WCFields:

[Windows Phone 7 General] WCFields:
Ah, my stab at fame! ;) Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 General] comeradealexi:
wow whats the course like when your at 300,000!?
[Windows Phone 7 General] WCFields:
It's not much different from 200.000, or 100.000! Like FreeDee posted earlier, difficulty stays mostly the same once you pass 50 to 60 k. From then on it's a matter of concentration.
[Windows Phone 7 General] lumpaywk:
I was forth but now 8th on the global scoreboard though that won't last lol
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
wow, I guess my 20k just doesn't hold up...

:p
[Windows Phone 7 General] digime:
I notice your score has appeared on the online scoreboard. Did the new software pick that up? I reset all my old scores as they didn't seem to appear in the global list.

I think they should have levelled all previous high scores as gameplay has changed. It feels a bit harder to me. Not at first, but you used to get to a certain point where it got quite easy. That doesn't seem to be the case anymore.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mod Monkeys:
I have decided to keep the old scores as I didn't change much gameplay-wise. Yellow platforms can occasionally move a bit faster from 75k+ on, but I added that with 2.0 and not 2.1 - as soon as I make significant changes to the gameplay I might decide to delete older scores, but not for now. The old scores will only appear when you have entered a name for the first time, as they don't have a name assigned to them from the old versions.

Congrats WCFields to world rank 2, I'm still trying to understand how someone came up to 500k. I'm pretty sure the leaderboards are cheating-save for now so he might just be Birdy Bounce pro :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] digime:
500k is an insane score on any version. They must be a machine!
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
probably that droid robot!!! :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] WCFields:
This was actually a little confusing. I played the new version to about 150 k and was asked for my username. After I had entered it, the online scoreboard showed not the 150 k, as I had expected, but my old highscore, ignoring all other local results. Perhaps there is only one slot per player on the scoreboard?
[Windows Phone 7 General] digime:
Think I've worked it out now. It only updates the online board with your highest existing score once you get on your own local high score table.

I played a few quick games but didn't score highly enough.

You can have more than one entry on the top ten list. It should add you every time you play and make the top 10. The exception being the first time make your own high score table where you have a higher local score.

At least that how it seems to me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mod Monkeys:
You can currently only rank more than one time in the top ten when you improve yourself after you have been added to the online scoreboard. I'm not sure about what you guys would like more: should a person be unable to be ranked more than one time in the online leaderboards at all - that means that I just delete or update his last score instead of adding a second one. Or would you even like to see all the local scores in the online scoreboard - that would mean in worst case that a single person could fill the whole top10.

FYI: The guy who reached a score of 505269 did that on 2011-01-21 with version 2.0 - so he actually got it with the current difficulty! There definitely seem to be some Birdy Bounce freaks out there :)

I'm also planning to add a scoreboard list on the website so you can have a look at the top 100, top 1000 or whatever you want.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SaneinOne:
Samsung USA has tweeted the Market availability of GPSSamsungRestore, a GPS optimization app. Tweets have indicated that it is for the Vibrant and Captivate:

http://twitter.com/samsungtweets
[Galaxy S I9000 General] shwan_3:
maybe , some one using AT&T can help and upload the apk maybe ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yiannisthegreek:
Hmmmm... I assume that it is only on the market in the USA because I searched for it under the names GPSSamsungRestore, GPS Samsung Restore, GPS Restore, etc. and I cannot find it on the market here in Canada.

I am assuming that us poor Canadians will not see this app anytime soon but I have posted a question on the Samsung Mobile Canada facebook page and I will see if they answer it. I doubt it though cause they NEVER answer ANYTHING!!! :mad:

Sure would be nice if this is the "fix" weve been waiting for...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yubnub:
The apk is posted in the vibrant general forum, 1st post
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sufox:
Someone tried on Galaxy S ?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] MaelstromXC:
From that post, it says the app only restore the gps settings back to default...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] BlackDino:
Yup, gives an error saying it wont work with the i9000 model
[Galaxy S I9000 General] t1mman:
You can change the .apk to .rar and extract the content.

If you can provide the .apk we could take a look into it

Edit: it was posted here:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] BlackDino:
How would you modify the contents without the developers key?

I understand you can open the APK, but I thought that was only to remove/replace images

with some digging, i found the settings it replaces

* No. The application only resets settings to factory defaults and then writes data in setting file.

youhou ...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] thedauntlessone:
I'm going to chime in as one of those "my GPS has been working fine". Only been using Froyo for the last week so I don't know if it will get worse. However, so far it's been good.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Falconary:
Does anybody have the apk. for the captivate? Cant download it from the market
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yiannisthegreek:
Right so I think what this app is for is to reset the gps so it works and then as time passes and it gets bad again you run the app again to start from scratch so it works again... Lather, rinse, repeat...

Im just guessing here and its not the greatest solution but if thats how it works it would be better than nothing...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Oletros:
I think the app is for reset the settings to factory setting after aplying all the "fixes" we can read on the forums and doesn't do anything.

I doubt GPS can be fixed as Samsung is showing every day
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Auzy:
Exactly. Samsung have probably been receiving complaints by many people who are gps "experts", so they wanted to provide support with an easy approach for dealing with them.

I wouldn't expect new drivers are anything like that, I'd simply expect it to reset the GPS setting file.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] yiannisthegreek:
Is Samsung was receiving complaints from GPS "experts" then dont you think that these "experts" would have already stated "definitively" that the GPS cannot be fixed?

And if Samsung had been dealing with GPS "experts" then why would they release a software that would IMMEDIATELY be squashed by these same GPS "experts"?

I would like to think that Samsung may be finally listening to us all complaining and that this could even be just step 1 in the right direction to a useable GPS on this device. Wishful thinking I know but I sure hope so...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Oletros:
I think that "experts" is a sarcastic way of talking about all the thread playing with setting that doesn't nothing but changing configurations at random and only A-GPS settings.

Thanks!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gurps777:
Confirmed that it's totally unbranded.

However it would be useful for you be informed it's network locked.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvhttn:
Get it from CPW ot P4U and it'll be unbranded. I believe, as has been said, all the early ones even from the operators are unbranded but no telling what will happen in the next few months.

Dave - unbranded Vodafone DHD from CPW

PS: the above applies to contract and SIM only. Not necessarily to PAYG (was in the shop today talking about a new phone for my old man...)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JamesBarnes:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridium21:
Ok, thanks for the replies. That's great.

Desire HD ordered :) How long did you guys have to wait for stock & delivery?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panyan:
yep, mine was unbranded and unlocked from tmobile
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Daz555:
I was told by T-Mob that I would have to wait till January for the DHD. On that basis I ordered from mobiles.co.uk instead and got the phone on next day delivery. However, looking on T-Mob site now it appears they have them back in stock.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridium21:
Yeah, I considered elsewhere but they (T-Mobile) did me a good deal as an upgrade. I wonder if they are saying they have them in stock on the T-Mobile site when they haven't or are giving them to new contracts only...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyonas:
Ordered on a Friday afternoon, got it on Monday the following week but that was before they were officially listed as available on the site. Make sure you take a look at the hardware issues like camera misalignment and small gaps between the battery cover. I'm waiting until about January before I send mine off for warranty repair over it since I figure they'll have more stock and I'll have to wait less time.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeatCoal:
At risk of sounding like a noob, can I ask: doesn't unbranded mean the phone has no mention of the network at all?

If it does my t-mobile desire HD (ordered 1st december) certainly isn't unbranded, as it says t-mobile on booting and shutting down, and has a 'T-Mobile Recommends' app.

Not to mention the homepage on the internet browser was set to T-Mobile's mobile site when I got it.

Or does it just mean that T-Mobile isn't actually printed on the phone?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridium21:
Ah, as far as I'm concerned, that's branded :( It doesn't actually say "T-Mobile" on the phone too, does it? That really would p**s me off!

I've never had a 'branded' phone before, so how does one go about repairs - can you send it straight to HTC or do you have to go through T-Mobile?

Oh, and any tips for flashing a stock ROM?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeatCoal:
Haha, don't worry, its software only..

From what I can gather, maybe you can flash a custom ROM? The t-mobile apps can at least be deleted with titanium backup.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeatCoal:
What exactly is the camera misalignment issue? My camera lens isn't centered, is this a problem, or is it normal? Haven't noticed any problems with it from actually using the camera..

As for the small gaps, if you're referring to the SIM cover, I never had a problem with it after reading this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=827091 before I got the HD.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridium21:
Got my DHD today - unlocked & unbranded :D

I'm happy!
