quickgps?

hey guys, just started working at att and i requested the tilt as my company phone. well i got it yesterday, but i am completely pda/smartphone illiterate..
and i have been skimming over this forum but it minus well have been written in chinese...
so i read that quick gps is already loaded on the phone? i went through file explorer and couldn't find it anywhere... did i over look it?
also, the phone seems really laggy... from the screen switching from potrait to landscape... and there seems to be alot of lag in pressing the numbers on the touchscreen.
i've seen all the rom flashes and such... but is there a dummy guide to flashing the rom? do i download it onto my comp then move it over using active sync? does it matter what folder i put it under?
sorry for the stupid questions, but i tried my best to read through the threads but i couldn't seem to absorb anything...

mail me your phone, ill put quickgps on it and whatever custom rom you want..

couple of things
first off, try advanced search for the kaiser thread
second, coming from att might get you banned here... seems anyone that mentions xda on att forums gets banned
(i for one have been happy with the customer service)
there are plenty of guides to flashing, but basically you need to be careful. hook up to active sync and install hardspl, it won't look like anything happened so verify that you did it. then you're ready to flash your rom of choice. I use XDA Live, just keep in mind that flashing is risky and so you need to read read read... I'd stick with the stock rom for awhile anyway
quickgps is under programs BTW
this thread might be deleted just on the principal that there are a hundred like it

thanks for the info....
didn't know there was so much animosity between att workers and xda people...
i just work there to pay the bills and put food in the mouth... hopefully some of you know where im coming from...
also, to get my today screen to look like this....
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
not really interested in the bee in the background but more the layout of the today screen... im guessing that would require a rom flash? it just looks so much cleaner then the standard today screen...

To make your screen look like that, background excluded, all you need to do is to fing HTC Home cab file and install it. You do not need to change the ROM. Search... grasshopper...er bumble bee

Check your PMs... probably best to conduct the newbie stuff outside of the general population.

Touch HD tab that I wouldn't mind on my Touch Pro

Reading up on what may become my next device. Saw an article referring to the HD having a Stock tab. This would be a must have for myself!

knowing the community, give it time and it will be ported

Yes please, would love to get that on my TP

Digging up an old thread here, but what ever happened to the stocks tab? You guys made a new Calendar tab from scratch... is any one working on porting the stocks tab over?

rpm,
can u link to the calendar tab for the TP. Thanks.

Here ya go: http://tinyurl.com/788s6n

Sorry rpmccormick but that was pretty lame.... you can google all you want but it is still hard to find the correct file... and there is no clear process listed anywhere around.
I would love to see a cab that can just add the stock tab.. with very little effort.
Thanks,
SoBBie
PS: all it seems I can find is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=499355 and it says that I have to use some other minilla hd or somethin.... I just want my stock HTC Fuze with a stock tab. currently I am using TickerTape which I found in this forum but would love to have it integrated into a tab.

You cna get a beter Stock tab with the TP2 Manila port form XBMOD. Just look for a Raphael ROM with Rhodium Manila or instlal the cab form here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493531
IT also brings many mnay good features.

Juju,
Great!!! Thanks I took my time and got it installed and working! I love it. Only thing is the Stock tab does not look like the one above. I kind of like the perspective view of the chart and the way it looks like the contact and email tabs. Is there a way to get it with that view?
Anyway, thanks again for your assistance with this. I do love the new Manila skin!!

Alphabet in music library

Hello,
I'm wondering if this would be possible..
In the people tab you have this nice alphabet at the side of the screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Why is there not such a search think in the music tab / library?
If someone can make this for me / us.. I will donate
Now when i want a song that start with the Z in need to scroll all the way down.. and that takes too long
I also send HTC a email about this

Nobody?

Yeah i agree, this would be very useful. Going through the tracklist at the moment is a pain.
Anyone have any ideas ?

I have a response from HTC in Dutch
They said it would maybe get solved in WM6.5
And the guy said he has send the request to the developers of HTC.
I send him a email back with the message WM6.5 won't solve it because it's a problem in TF3D.
And now i'm waiting for a response back

ill also donate a little bit. if it works.

Nice
Too bad i don't know how this stuff works.. so i can't give it a try
But if there are any developers who would like to help us.. We will donate

I would also like to see this implemented!

i have lots of MP3 on my Topaz, in TF3D it takes about 10-15 seconds until it shows up (I guess because of the album pictures).
If I want to browse through the tracks it takes a lot of time to get to the Letter where I want to go.
This would be great!

I'm having the problem too that it's shows up really late..
And i asked HTC if they could make a .cab file for it..
They only sad they had send it again to the developers
So probably no cab file but maybe in the new manila versions
I hope they can do it
EDIT: I've send a email back and waiting for a response at the moment

This feature would be awesome. It should be standard in every list in TF3D.

New response from HTC...
They don't know sure it there is coming a cab file or it will be build in the new roms...
They only know that the guy has send a request to the developers..
So maybe a developer here can make a cab file for us?

[Help] New to this, some counseling please. :)

Hi, guys!
After much waiting, begging and whatnot, I got a brand new, used Qtek S100 from a friend of mine.
Now, I've been messing around with the ROMs, and got MA_DT_WWE_DutchRetail_11200_550_11200_Ship installed.
Now, what is the ROM you guys advise me to install, to better make use of my Magician?
Of course, I'd like to not have problems with Blutooth or the camera, so what is the most stable release available,
not needing to be the most recent?
Thanks all.

Hi, simurgh.
I've tried out all cotulla rom releases and i think that the "HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O3" is the best upgrade for your Magician.
of course if you wanna try windows mobile 6.5 you're gonna have to give up your camera 'cause current release of WM6.5 has its camera removed.

Thank you, Dante.
That table is just class.
I believe it really is the best option.
I'm also wondering how the configuration of sms/mms/calls go.
Any help on this as well?

"Voice Call" and "SMS" don't need to be configured.
Non of these Roms supports "MMS" configuration but you can install "MMS service pack" on WWE_03, I didn't test this service pack on other roms but i think it should work as well.
You can download "MMS service pack" from here:

Great! Now just to figure how to get my SIM contacts (solved!).
ROM installed and running nicely

Windows Theme

Hello All!
Before some of you start blasting me, I have searched and Googled everywhere for a 2.2 ROM with a theme that might be simliar to Windows Mobile 6.5. I like it because it has a clean look with the missed calls and appointments available for the home screen. I thought I saw one ROM theme once that had one very similar to the WM 6.5, but after searching everywhere, I couldn't find it. If it is out there, please point me in the correct direction? But if so, I am actually willing to pay for a theme similar to Windows Mobile. I am currently running VirusROM with SENSE. Thanks for your help!

thread title contains the word theme.... common sense would dictate that you would post this in the themes and apps section of this forum.

Sorry, I clicked on the wrong section. By the way, there is no need to be a prick. Like the first responder, all you had to do was leave it to what he said.

I made a Windows-ish theme but it was for 2.1, might work on 2.2, all you can do is try it.
It was my first attempt ever at a theme, so it wasn't anything spectacular. I'll find you the link.
Edit:
Here is the thread.

Ack: to each his own Android's homescreens can be set as simple or complex as you want.
BUT look for "Zune Home" in the market. That may be near what you want.

Honestly, I think what I am really looking for is a widget for the home screen so I can see the information similar to Windows Mobile 6.5 (Missed Calls and Mail/Messages). That is all I am looking for. I'd love to be able to use my SENSE ROM. I have even tried Executive Desktop (or whatever it is) and e-Today, but they didn't quite fit what I was looking for (although e-Today was close).
Thanks!
