Hey, i'm completely new to forums in general, and i could use some help. i have an HTC Touch Cruise on AT&T, and from the home screen i'm supposed to be able to get the weather for my area, but it keeps saying that the information cannot be downloaded. Friend of mine has a tilt and his works just fine. Any assistance i could get with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

Is your area on the list? Are you able to connect to the internet otherwise? Have you set up everything for AT&T?
Ugh, I just removed the HTC Home Plug from my TC.
Search the forums, there is a thread specifically for setting up your city, it involves you editing the .xml file, it's quite easy.
Deleted!
Duplicate.
HHC (HTC Home Customizer) is a nice tool as well

I have the same problem.
My TC will download the weather on WiFi but not on a normal 3G connection...
Any Help?

Crazy week at work means I won't be able to flash my phone any time soon (I forward work to it). But I'm curious of a few things when someone does flash their phone.
If you use any of the following apps, do they still work?
- CHome Weather 1.2 (NRG MiniWeather)
- CHome Configurator
- Tasks Panel
The same app unlock method is reported to work, that's good news.
Help, I upgarde my phone to WM6.5, but my original OS was in Spanish and was from Telcel company (Mexico).
It Change the layoout of my keys, my applications, etc.
How can I remove ATT content and remap my keys layout to spanish?

I did the upgrade. Not much to get excited about. It doesn't bring much along with it at this time, except for maybe some bug fixes.
CHome Configurator works... sort of. There is a minor glitch in mine in that it hides one of the collapsed panels, but shows it when it is the main panel. Its kind of weird, as it is just a blank space placeholder in that one slot. Its like the panels are overlapping or something, maybe. And it seems to slow the phone down, as well. Like its thinking about something, constantly.
I'm trying to figure out how to get Titanium like the non-touch HTC guys have. That actually looks better, I think. (If anyone has a link, let me know?)
I Just flashed mine, will try to udate on what I notice besides the new orange startup/shutdown windows logo and a beep.
So far what I have observed (will update as I come across them):
_________________________
1. Seem to be running slow even after formatting and rebooting.
2. Contacts now display their pic while browsing in the contact view. pretty cool
3. Phone will remember the last contact highlighted unless you quit the program in task mgr.
4. Can now create groups using contacts.
5. Can't *SMS* or MMS to more than 10 contacts at a time, even while using PowerSMS. WTF?! Hopefully I put in a weird setting somewhere, anyone know how to bypass that limit for SMS?

nice find! I am now incented to get pictures of all my contacts...
The sending SMS 10 contact limit (even with PowerSMS which worked on 6.1) is killing me!!! I browsed the registry and didn't see anything obvious. This blows!!!!!!!!!

As far as I know you cannot delete those settings but you can disable with the modaco nodata program, then load the settings for Telcel and works fine.

The best way that I have found to unlock the GPRS is by finding UAMgr.exe in the windows directory, create a shortcut to it in My Documents and click it to run it. Choose menu, tools, then choose unlock gprs. you should now be able to change the settings and also add connections.
Hope this helps.

Great tip thanks a lot
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know what happens to the i637 Jack after WM 6.5 upgrade in regards to being locked to AT&T?
I bought the phone in the US, convinced AT&T to unlock it for me and I am now using it overseas with the local Wireless Phone Provider. Will the phone remain unlocked or will it lock back to AT&T after this upgrade from WM 6.1 to WM 6.5?
Thanks

SIM unlocking stays across ROM updates.
Question!
What happen if during upgrade your phone disconnects and not turn on? Do invalid warranty? Is there a way to repair it?
*.bin files ??

Do you mean that I will need to call AT&T after I upgrade to WM6.5 and ask them to unlock the phone again to be able to use other SIM cards in it?
I guess I just don't understand how the provider can "lock" the phone so no other SIMs can be used on it.

once unlocked, it stays unlocked after flashing a new ROM. There is no need to get ATT to do it again.
Anyone figure out the 10 contact limit for sending SMS on WM 6.5 for the Jack yet?
I upgraded my i637 to WM 6.5 this weekend. All is good except for the annoying delay on the home screen when the phone goes to sleep.
When you press the power button to wake the phone up it takes a good 2 seconds before the clock is shown. That did not happen under WM 6.1
I saw a fix for the WM6.5 Lockscreen Delay http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=527219 but it did not do anything for the screen wakup delay on the Jack. Any ideas or suggestions would be very helpful.

I've noticed the same thing. Lame.
Also, the Home Screen is displaying the wrong softkey menu items (messaging Reply/Menu instead of Start/Contacts) periodically for no reason. Annoying. The only perceived benefit from the 6.5 update appears to be battery life, from everybody's feedback. It certainly isn't a better OS.
ok i have searched and searched on this website, so dont give me a hard time about me not reading or searching... i am running the basic energy rom (cookie i guess) july 1st 2010 version. there are plenty of threads about how to fix the mms but they dont sound like my problem AND THERE IS NO DEFINATIVE ANSWER OF HOW TO FIX IT. my phone acknowledges that there is a mms msg, and tells me the senders name (outlook sms) but it will not download. it attemps, but sits steady at 0%... will keep retrying all day long. will sum1 please walk me through this step by step, this was my first flash and i wasnt aware of this issue b4 i flashed. HELP HELP HELP PLEASE!!!!!!
oh, btw i downloaded the Disable Manila Messaging .cab, and then installed the Verizon MMS 2.5 fix.cab, to no avail... still doing the same exact thing. i tried this first, and i thought i might have done something wrong, so i hard reseted the damn thing and did it over.... same thing. tampered with alll the settings on this **** ass app trying to get it to work as well. and man this app really does SUCK. F. F. F. F. F. ANY help at ALL would be VERY much appreciated people!
yall are SOOOO helpful! THANKS...... well for future reference, for anyone that has this problem, it fixes itself in a few days.
Verizon MMS Help
Try these cabs, they should solve all of your problems, they worked like magic for me because I have Verizon too... For better and faster help w/ a CDMA TP2 try PPCGeeks!
I've never had to install any additional cabs to get MMS working on any of NRG's rom.
As long as I did the carrier provisioning for Verizon under "Tools" it has worked.
Finally got my MMS back

Can anyone please show me a thread for the Boost Mobile flashed phones like the HTC TP2 where I can get help? I have a Boost flashed tp2 on energy ROM as well and I got the mms fix cab on my phone. I can send and receive pic mail but when my hubby gets the pic mail from me, its like blank! Can anyone explain that to me? I have the Arcsoft software too which is the mms fix.
Just in case anyone needs it
This is a guide based off my experiences on how to get everything working properly on boost mobile. This is not my work nor do i take credit for it i was helped by many. im just putting it together in one place for every one that needs it. Oh and i seen all over craigslist and ebay that they sell guides on how to do this everyone that learns from here please do not try to sell this instead help out who ever needs it just like you needed it.
1) You need to have a boost CDMA account active
* CDMA, yes boost has CDMA just like sprint. ** CDMA not IDEN in other words no walkie talkie.
1.5) if you have a walkie talkie account just call boost Customer service (C.S.) and tell the rep you want to transfer your account to the cdma side
2) Call boost mobile C.S. and tell them you want to swap phones on your account for whatever reason you can make up i.e. phone broke or fell on water. Just tell them its a red phone or something and it works
3) Do not tell them that your new phone is a sprint phone they will tell you cant do it not possible. Dont get worried it will work
4) They will ask you for the phones info give it to them (if they ask u if its a sprint phone deny it all the way) then they will tell you what numbers to punch in follow that exactly the way they say.
5. Once it is done wait a few while the phone gets completely activated on their system. At first text messages might not work and data as well. just give it till the end of that day it should work but if it doesn just wait a little bit.
6. Then make sure you carrier provisioned it make sure to select Sprint.
7. Run the Sprint prl update to make sure you get data working.
** Now for the big one everyone has been having problems with MMS**
Never mind i forgot how to do that one sorry . LOL
8. On a custom rom (i use Mighty rom FF) install the Sprint Arcsoft MMS 5.0.82.79 cab that i atached at the bottom and do exactly like this
*Install the cab to your phones memory
*Soft reset
*Go to Messages
*All messages
*Menu
* MMS options or Pics/Video Options
*Servers
* Click on NEW
*Server Name = put whatever name you want
*Gateway = leave blank
*Port number leave at 80
*Server address: http://mm.myboostmobile.com
*Connect via: Sprint
*Send limit= leave at 500K
*Press done
* Under setting select the name you created and then click on Set as default
* Exit out and soft reset just to be on the safe side then your should be able to send/receive MMS
9) You should have everything working correctly from here its back to customizing however you feel like.
I added the soft reset cab also just to make it easier just install it doesnt matter either your phones memory or sdcard and look for the icon in the start menu press it and it will soft reset
Oh and foreveryone that bought the phone "flashed to boost mobile" there isnt such thing they just did as stated above. There is no flashing to boost and there isnt a boost mobile rom.
If i forgot something let me know ill add it to here or maybe someone else will. If you have any either question just ask.
Wow!! What a simple method this is. So many "third-party" cell phone shops are charging as much as $75 to $100 to "flash" these phones to boost. That's insane. Thanks!!!
Glad you liked it. If you really like it then how about hitting the thanks button instead of just saying it.
Also if you feel like your missing something by not paying i can help you with that too ill send you a paypal link.LOL
I take it back, it's not that simple. Tried many many times and I guess things are more enforced since then. Ended up paying but was WELL worth every penny. I'm loving the phone now. No thanks to this

TP2 on Boost working great so far!
Using the instructions above, I just migrated my Iden Boost account to CDMA on my TP2! The Boost rep said that since I didn't say which phone I had, she couldn't tell me that it couldn't be activated. She said if I had said I wanted to switch to the HTC TP2, then she would have been obligated to tell me it could not be done. I have been receiving SMS and MMS with no problems. The Internet works fine too! Thanks for the info! I am glad I did not pay someone a crazy amount for these relatively simple instructions!

What issue are you talking about. From what i have read no one here stating they have a problem with their internet.
Read the guide again and look at step #7 if you still dont get it let me know.
**If i helped you in any way hit the thanks button**
Can I get some help? My TP2 has been working flawlessly on Boost since I followed your instructions. All of a sudden, today, whenever I try to use the internet or Titanium Weather, I get a message saying that "Your plan does not include wireless web or your balance is not suficient to cover the wireless web charge". I have been using the pay as you go plan and have plenty of money in my account. This problem just started today. Has Boost changed something? Or do you have any tips?

Ok I have been working on my phone for two days now and no luck so I need some help, I use to have a blackberry with the walkie talkie that I programed to run on boost but had problems getting my text like 2 days later so I decide to switch over to the HTC TP2 so I called boost switched my number to there cdma side and did what they told me to get it connected. Now Im using the same sims card that was in the BB phone not sure if that makes any difference. I can call out and receive calls but I dont have data or text. I have tried different roms, mighty, and mighty ff, now im trying engery now, and I like the looks of it so I will stay with it. OK I have tried installing the cab files that you have posted up, Im sure Im just doing something wrong but I extracted the files to the phone but I dont see any changes and I never get to the text option screens that you say to change. Could you please help me out Im about to the point of going back to the cans with strings attached phones. Thanks
Adding this note now getting " dialed #777 cannot connect" I have tried a hard rest but still not connecting.

how long has it been since you did the switch to tp2?
Just this past weekend, I now can text but no mms nor data. I cant get the Sprint Arcsoft MMS 5.0.82.79 cab installed, I have Arcsoft 5.27.34 now but cant add any new servers.
unlock first??
Probably a dumb question here, but does the phone need to be unlocked before hand? Your instructions don't mention it so I wanted to be sure.
Thanks!

Phone does not need to be unlocked if your gonna be running a stock rom. If your gonna be using a custom then you need to have unlocked so you can install the custom rom then install the acrosoft for custom rom. Hopes this answered your question

Your welcome
im on a blackberry plan right now, couldnt i just call them and switch to the 50/month plan and then update my phone on the website by entering in the ESN# from the touch pro 2. i have no idea what to say if im asked what the phone model is.
if your on the blackberry plan most likely your gonna have to do both changes at the same time ( your plan & phone).
Also in re: to what phone to tell them that you have thats already answered in the guide in the first post of this thread.
If the website is allowing to update ESN# changes then you might be able to do both there without having to call
So they tell me after i switch phones that internet will work in 1 hour.. It doesnt so today i try and ask for help. They ask me to dial ##3282# which for half a milli second goes to the edit option then goes back to dial pad. So that doesnt work, they then tell me to hit the update profile button "which is under the tv out button in system settings" but its not there.
This is what i tried using
MightyROM_RhodiumW_062010 (11400)
Its very frustrating. I tried the mR X rom and it was totally sluggish and boring.
so i said fuk it and flashed 6.5 windows on the phone instead of custom rom (and guess what the setting was there and dialing ##3282# works .. how lame is that mightyrom,..
i didnt see anything telling me to install custom cab or that my internet would not work with mightyrom..
I spent along time programing my contacts into the new mightyrom thinking the internet would work then had to delete them all when switch roms.
I went with sprint lovers 6.5.x and seems great has the one thing that mightyrom had that i wanted wifi router. And has sprint navigation too (which mightyrom doesnt and office 2010 along with tons of other options and cool bigger icons) Very pleased with sprint lover rom not sure if i will even test anything else.. (sprint lovers rom actually has update profile but also can not dial ##3282# )
you know, i dont post much on there but the one thing i do is READ. There is nothing wrong with mightyrom and the internet works just fine in it. ( i have ran it several times before myself ) as for programs go search for the cabs and install them. Doesnt anyone search on how to fix problems anymore?
dude u probably just didnt know what you were doing. If you had to sit there and program numbers back instead of having sense and backing up the numbers that already shows how much of a genius you are. Not trying to diss but just pointing out the obvious. Instead of blaming someone else try looking at your own errors cuz I never had any problems out of any of those roms
Meh, I have that ROM and it works fine. I have the PRL/Profile cab, and Office 2010 Mobile for it. Wifi router works great Mike!!!
This guy just posts crap in a lot of forums guys.
