HTC Connection Setup for Pocket PC v3.1 CAB

Thanks for the pointer. I downloaded a few of Dinik's skins for keyboard cabs, extracted the files & will play with it.

*****

I think I found the solution for the ROM that sets automatically the carrier's carrier's network, Data connection, SMS & voice mail, etc. thanks to a pointer by olyloh6696 to a cab cryptically named miROM_HTC_Operator_Settings.cab by mirolg here. I renamed it HTC Connection Setup PPC v3.1.2016.2829.cab & attached it to this message.

I like to play it safe & wanted to test it properly so what I did on my HTC Tilt 2 GSM:

Formatted the phone with Task29 neatly included in Nega's ROM exe.

Flashed the ROM & did not install or tweak anything. Restarted phone.

Copied cab to memory card, installed program, turned off phone & inserted SIM.

Restarted phone & HTC Connection did it's magic: my country, Costa Rica, was in the drop down menu & it automatically setup properly my carrier's network, Data connection, SMS & voice mail, etc.

Et voilà!

Edit: Note that the HTC Connection Setup for Pocket PC has an updatable database of worldwide cellular providers settings! If one can't connect to the web with his phone then connect to PC via ActiveSync and then update. Start > Settings > Connections > Connection Setup > Menu > Update Database. Make sure that Enable Auto Configuration is selected while there.

Thank you very much. Those two posts of yours saves me alot of work! Thanks again!!

I've been trying your kitchen, and I have a few questions.

Whenever I cook a rom, the start menu is messed up. It opens with a scrambled background image and dragging icons is like having a frozen app in the background, all the text copies constantly over anywhere it touches and the icons do the same, making a very hard to use start menu.

I tried cooking your WP7 rom without changing any settings and still had the issue.

The WP7 menu works fine, its only the start menu that has issues.

Oh and I get a security popup, I guess I need to disable security warnings in the kitchen.

edit:

Is there any logic to the send button fix being to install a different taskbar? Aren't they unrelated?

How do you edit the links on the WP7 start menu? (the one accessed by hitting ->)

Are any of the apps required? I have no use for over half of them.

Bluetooth Fix, Free RAM on Taskbar & Disabling Weather Animation

I noticed that when turning on Bluetooth there was no indicator on the taskbar which is important for me . The solution is this small BtIconNotifierDusk.cab here: DUSK (G/B/R) Taskbar & BLACK Theme & EXTRAS for a dark Dusk style or this	Bluetooth Icon Notifier.cab for the traditional Bluetooth logo in... blue if connected to an other device or red if not but turned on (and eating battery for no reasons): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3837900&postcount=5

To answer my question above, it's Xtask that shows the free RAM data on the taskbar. You can remove it or move or replace by a strip, etc. Check the Xtask Wiki to see everything that this neat app can do.

The weather animation enabled by the ROM's default on Home really eats memory & slows down the phone. Just add Quicklink >Toggle Switch > Weather, turn Off and after that you can remove the switch and the animation will remain disabled. Maybe that setting & the toggle switch already on Home could be the default in the next ROM?

What the CHT weather toggle switch does is change this value in the registry so you can do it manually if you are not using Cookie's Home Tab (CHT):

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

"Home.WallpaperMode"=dword:00000000 (enabled) >>> automatically changed to: =dword:00000002 (disabled).

Note that I have now 104.27 MB :eek: of free RAM @ the present with some other tweaks to be described in an other post. :)

In fact it's 106 MB but the Whip2Snap app to make the screen captures uses about 1.9 MB. Nice app BTW, you can choose the file type, naming & save to memory card if you wish.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] negamann303:
New Rom Releases! Many fixes/updates all in first post.

Thanks Joe for your help! Didn't see those questions you asked, glad you figured them out :)

Make sure to enable a start menu option in the Tweaks- system section. If you do have one selected, Then it's something else (maybe something added?) And make sure to choose a theme (dusk or WP7 only options for now)

The send button is in a .dll that also effects the taskbar icons strangely. I'll have it all fixed in the next kitchen release.

Okay, I've read countless threads but only one states I must first flash my phone to Metro PCS at a certified store before going through with the rest of the process. I went to my local corporate Metro store where they informed me they cannot flash my Evo. I would appreciate any help and all input, I am doing this for a friend and told him I can most likely finish it by tomorrow.

I have posted here to take the attension of the kernel developers

i have an idea taken from how CyanogenMod to fix this problem , in CyanogenMod auto backlight manager there is an option to set a constant backlight level when the light sensor is not working so when the light sensor is not reciving light or the light is too low to make it work , the manageer decreases the backlight to a certain level so that we don't get bright screen in dark conditions after deactivating the camera or tho ,

just like this

when the sensor is reading zero light or not working it adjust the screen backlight to 40 automatically so screen dims light automatically , that is why we don't see backlight problems in CyanogenMod ,

can any kernel developer kelp with this

Hi all,

I recently bought a T-mobile SGS and live in Norway. the seller said it is unlocked and using *#7465625# confirms it, everything is off. However, it doesn`t connect to any of the service providers in my country. I`ve tried several different providers without any luck. with android 2.1 it said "your sim card does not allow a connection to the network" when I tried to connect manually. I installed 2.2 (Froyo) and now it just says "unable to connect to network". I have no idea what to do!

Do I have to change the product code? currently it is GT-I9000HKDTMU.

Will it help unbranding it?

Please help!

[Networking] Gordon_Jeffries:
Make Sure your phone company has the same frequencies that the phone allows. I bought a T-mobile version first and brought it to Canada to use on Rogers but i found out that the frequency for the radio isn't compatible with Rogers service.

For your T-Mobile SGS your frequencies are as followed.

GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS1700, UMTS1900, UMTS2100 / CSD, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA, HSUPA

If the phone carrier in your region doesn't use these frequencies then it wont work. Simple as that.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
This might be old news to some, but after going nuts trying to get slacker to play through a full song in the car, I installed real signal a few days ago to see what my data signal was up to. Turns out that my evdo signal would fluctuate between full bars and none without moving the phone. And it was even worse while driving. so last night I finally downgraded my radio to the second latest (instead of the latest). Now my evdo bars are consistent, and slacker doesn't stutter and skip anymore while driving - the handoff seems smoother. People talk about finding the radio version that works best for your specific evo, here's proof that it's not always the latest version that works best.

If this is old news, feel free to let this thread die, just thought I'd throw this out there.

Are you running a rom based off the 3.70 ota? I thought I read somewhere that users were having some issues with that radio and the newest software. I might also be making things up in my head. :p I've been considering flashing back to the 09.01 radio cuz of pretty sluggish data speeds, but it seems there have been alot of complaints about slow data lately. So I was also thinking it could be on Sprint's end of things.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
I'd noticed a drop in speeds myself, but like you said, so did a lot of people. For me it wasn't the slow speeds that was the big deal, it was that it had trouble staying connected. Trying to listen to slacker in the car was frustrating - if the song began at all it would stutter while buffering - this would happen more than half the time.

btw, still runnig 3.29, I'm waiting on mikfroyo 4.4 before I change to 3.70.

I've been having this problem on and off for a while, mostly I believed it was related to something getting corrupted when I restored my apps to a new Rom with Titanium Backup.

I am happy to say, that after scouring the web for days, and trying a lot of wrong information, I finally figured out how to fix this.

It's real easy. All you need to do is remove any *.apk files located in the /cache directory on your phone (did not even need to remount- though I did it as root just in case).

I never did figure out why only some apps will have this problem or how the problem first comes about, but I have successfully done this twice and have since been able to install/update files that had this error before.

Update (3/3/11): OK - After scouring the Internet for over a month I finally figured it out. My info above was only part right. The problem is specifically with ROMs/Kernels that move the dalvik-cache to the /cache directory (HTC puts it in the /data dir).

In any case, when it's in /data, it is using app space, and therefore you usually run out of app space and know about it. However, because this is in /cache, you don't really know what you are using. As you load up on apps, your dalvik-cache grows, and since these apps need the .dex files in the cache, even if you clear your cache, it will just get re-created.

the /cache dir is also where the apps are temporarily stored while downloading from the market. So....

1. If you are getting immediate download fails, that means that your cache is so full that you don't even have space for the temp file.

2. If you get "Invalid Package" that likely means that there was not enough cache left to install the .dex files (the download is also taking up some of this space).

Unfortunately, the only way to fix this is to either remove some of your apps, or move your cache to your SD card.

HOWEVER, I found this great app on the market called Link2SD, that allows you to only move select apps to the SD card, and you can also move the dalvik-cache files associated with these apps.

see this thread for specifics: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10711328&postcount=1

it lets you select which apps to move. You will need to create a new partition on your card, though.

So far results have been great and I can finally update the 30+ apps that have been stuck for me for the last 2 months.

almost forgot, if you adb shell or use terminal emulator, you can type "df" to see how much space is left on all your mounts.
[EVO 4G General] Seandeezy:
My phone has been doing the same thing with the whole package file is invalid bs. I tried to follow your instructions on going to the /cache folder. When I went to the folder, it was empty, so I wasn't able to remove any .apk files. So now what? How do I fix this?
[EVO 4G General] sw99:
If you use a File Managemet app like ASTRO, it will show the folder as empty because you need root access to see the dir. However, if you use Terminal Emulator or adb shell (as root) you will see that there are indeed other directories, and probably these orphaned .apk files.
[EVO 4G General] rudey4:
Hi,

I'm also having the same issue with invalid package. I cleared the /cahch direcotry and still have the issue -- Is there something else i can try before wiping and starting over?

thanks

Rudey
[EVO 4G General] sgt. slaughter:
It could also be caused by the .android_secure folder on your SD card. Clearing this folder and letting the market restore them solves issues a lot ofthe time.

As always use TiBackup or something to backup all your apps first too to be safe.
[EVO 4G General] sw99:
As the OP, I can tell you that I have, in fact, been unable to fix this problem.

Initially the suggestion I posted above worked, however a couple of days later is was no longer working again.

I have tried every trick on the web, including:

1. Removing SD card.

2. Deleting the above mentioned folder

3. clearing market cache

4. Clearing all caches in recovery

5. logging out and back in to google talk.

The only thing that fixes it is a complete factory reset.

I currently have a combination of 3 errors:

1. No download at all.

2. Download unsuccessful

3. Invalid Package

some apps will still update, but what is really weird is that I am even getting invalid package on new apps (so its not a corrupt app already installed on the phone).

One last thought. Once I am unable to update an app, even if I remove it, I can no longer restore the backup using Titanium.
[EVO 4G General] sgt. slaughter:
oughta try reformating your SD card and let the phone reformat it too.
[EVO 4G General] sw99:
don't see why this is different than un-mounting the SD which should do the same thing and has been tried.
[EVO 4G General] sgt. slaughter:
na actually reformating it will fully wipe everything on the SD and having the phone do it is best always as its always better to format with the device your using the disk on the most in general.
[EVO 4G General] sw99:
Found the problem, updated in OP.
[EVO 4G General] dahauss:
Didnt solve my issue.. I had reformatted my phone and SD card and reinstalled my apps. It was working fine again but now its back to some apps update fine.. some get DOWNLOAD UNSUCCESSFUL and some get PACKAGE FILE INVALID.. any ideas.. Im on sprint lovers rom (latest)

It appears th LINK 2 SD needs a second partition that I dont have nor use with SPRINT LOVERS ROM and 2.2 .... am I missing something??
[EVO 4G General] gpz1100:
To the OP,

The program you linked to seems to be a variation of dark tremor's a2sd method (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715116). His lets you move data, cache, and/or dc to the ext partition, but doesn't (at least I don't believe it does) give you granular control over which apps remain in the standard location.

In my own use, I chose to move all user installed apps to sd, but dc remained on the internal memory (albeit, not in /data, but in the /cache partition). I figured this way, even if the sd card is missing, the phone will still boot. I won't have access to anything I installed, but whatever the rom came with will still be accessible.
[EVO 4G General] sw99:
Follow the instructions on that thread and create the second partition. You won't need more than 500mb. apps2sd or link2sd is the only way you can fix this problem unless you want to remove some of your apps.
[EVO 4G General] sw99:
Yes that's true, and I eventually went the app2sd route. However, I was trying to avoid that because of the slow speed of my sd card.
[EVO 4G General] gpz1100:
I'm not sure which app2sd method you're referring to, but keep the following in mind. I discovered this after my backup images failed to restore properly.

In the past, i'd be backing up boot, system, and data partitions. Obviously with dt's a2sd, I need to include the ext partition now. No problem. BUT, when restoring, i'd run into issues where my apps were present, but all settings were lost. After much confusion and head scratching, I tried wiping cache and dc AFTER the restore, but before the initial boot. The restore was a success now!

Apparently, with a2sd on the ext3, some remnants of cache or dc remain when backing up, even if cache is not selected. As part of any good restore, first thing is to always wipe, so now we end up with a hodge podge of files in the cache which I think causes the OS to revert all the settings back to default.

Just something to keep in mind.
