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...
-tj
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....

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...
-tj
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

Hi everyone, what do you say on the new T-mobile's homescreen for HTC Shadow device (http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2007/11/01/shadow-homescreen.aspx)?
It would definitely be worth having it on other phones, do you think it can be done?

As far as i know it is for Windows Mobile Standart (Smartphone) only, but can not be sure until i try it
Sure it can be done. The only thing you need is dumped T-Mobile shadow ROM. If you can get that, you can get the homescreen.
What i wanna know is if there is a reg edit to get the to take myfaves away from the first tab on the home screen so i can see the date and time there instead like in the first picture. That would great.

As written in linked article, myfaves are only enabled on T-Mo SIMcards, others see the clock instead, which is great. Now, where to get the ROM?
Let's just hope that someone will dump their phone's rom
To all shadow users: Who can dump their phones rom ?
I'm not sure how to dump my rom, but I hope someone figures it out because I hate this my fave on my homescreen. I would also like to keep the neo interface but be able to add my own apps to it...I wish I knew how to help..g
Clock instead of MyFav
Take a look here to get rid of MyFavs. I haven't tried it but the person who posted it did. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343000

Worked like a charm thanks for the link.....g
If you're not on a MyFavs plan, can you still use the MyFavs on the interface as a poor-man's photo dialer to five numbers of your choosing?
May be someone could help Gottifour to dump his rom? I don't know how to do this for sure..
Indeed... A dump would be really great!
What do you guys think about the ever growing eyecandy that is being used in all different mobile devices? Is it doing something good for the usability or just eyecandy that blinds the user?
Greetings from the Netherlands,
Peter Vrenken
How about some pointers to instructions on how to dump a rom for those who might be interested.
How about this...
Try using this tutorial on the xda xiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoDumpRom
as far as I know, you can use itsme's tools for all htc devices. Sorry that i can't try this myself on the shadow. I have the t-mo MDA and an ancient mpx200
If anyone gets this to work, please post the dump online
I think it helps to create Neo to ather devices =)

well mate if it new it prob locked put in a diffrent providers sim card and if you can,t access it its locked then you my friend gonna need to do a lot of reading on how to unlock it
call at&t and tell them your going to europe and need to unlock the phone for use there. (mentioned somewhere in these forums) I didnt try this myself.
When i called they wouldnt give it to me (code) till i owned the unit for 3 months i think. Total bull****. And i work for Lucent. Didnt matter.
Good luck
Are u Serious
man there is a sticky at the top of the page that walks u thru how to unlock ur phone in less than 20 minutes easy as making ridiculous threads in the kaiser rom dev. forum... and a unlocked sim has nothing to do with the brand new phones locked status
oh no !
prepared to get flamed !

Hello I just got a One S yesterday. my old phone is a HTC HD2
I found the PDF of the users guide for this phone but as I am reading, I dont see the options they are talking about on my phone.
for example.....if you hit the apps button from the home screen you are "supposed" to be able to find something called "show Me" and "transfer" but I dont find this stuff.
my main issue right now is trying to find a way to transfer my contacts from my old phone to the new one. and no my contacts are not linked to google or anything else.
thanks for any help or comments,
Nicole
I don't undrstand why ud get such a nice phone and have to read the user guide loool u had the hd2 wats wrong with u lool anyway apps are organised alphabetically transfer will be on last page swipe right and there is also a search function u can use top right corner on all apps
I can't remember seeing show me but it must be there I've removed alot of stuff because of leedroid Rom what do you want to do ill help u out
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
thats the odd thing, from what I see neither of those exist on the phone. not on the app list and not when I search for them.
Should be ;/ check your boatloader are u unlocked ? Where did u get It from? When u set up phone the last step is transfer why didn't u do It?

I got the phone from a T-Mobile store. The guy there started up the phone to make sure it was working. I think I am stuck manually entering everyone. Now I am also stuck with all my facebook people synced on here by accident. Searched the forum and all ways to fix this don't seem to work either. Darn it. Lol. Nothing seems to be going good for me
Dowload ruu and flash it will put u exactly how it should be

The How To seems to download pdf instructions (didn't try), Transfer is a phone to phone sync.
Bell (Canada) doesn't seem to **** around with phones too much, the only thing I can tell they install is the "Mobile TV" app (maybe sympatico.ca too, I don't have a sympatico e-mail with them), which is included in my monthly plan (10 hours a month, does not add to data). HBO is 5$. It has a couple dozen channels for free (could watch the stanley cup live on it).
I can't remember anything pre-installed on my Legend when I got it either.
That's odd. So those exist on some of the one.s phones but not all. I definitely don't see them on mine
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA
I guess T-Mo removed those apps and didn't remove it from the user's guide.
I still have transfer on LeeDroid custom rom
Maybe someone smarter than me can get OP the app
But, there are some transfer apps in Play Store
I did see a setting somewhere when I set up accounts not to sync Facebook etc--forget where--
Hey sum CHOOCH told me to delete Google stuff off phone cuz they swipe pics and other personal stuff... so being a chooch myself I did...were i shuda asked you all on here what to do first!!

ROCK ON XDA LUV THIS SITE....
First of all Dafuq is a chooch???
Second, don't listen to imbeciles that have no clue what they are talking about. I've been using Google/Android for over 5 years & not once has it "swiped" any pics (or anything at all!) from my fone.
I think unless you know exactly what you deleted then the only way round this is either restore an earlier nandroid or reflash a new ROM.
In future if you want to delete vital parts of your fones OS then pls, I implore you- make a back up!!!

Sorry I just re-read your post & I've come to the conclusion your absolutely crackers, therefore I cannot help you further

I can't tell what type of phone you have, but I suggest locating that device forum using the Find Your Device field at the top of the webpage and checking the General and Q&A forums there for better device specific information. This is one of the XDA General discussion forums so is not really the right place to post this type of question.
He's got a Samsung Galaxy 3 - that was in the title and was the only thing I understood.
Sent from the darkest corners of my mind.
The title pretty much sums it up.
I like to get caught up with a few specific rom-threads when I get a few minutes at work, but last night (at work), my GS3 wouldn't load the pages properly using the phones browser. No worries at the time, I figured I'll just catch up on my pc when I get home. So now I'm home on my pc, but I still get the same jumbled up pages. I am so not happy.
I use Firefox on the pc, but tried Chrome browser, and even IE-10. Cleared cookies and cache but get the same thing on all of em. Obviously I am not the only one this is happening to, so any info is appreciated.
I'm just hoping it's all back to normal when I get up tomorrow.
But tonight, I might actually have a problem getting to sleep without my daily dose of xda lol.
Edit- twitter said something about the hosting company doing something to the network.
a suggestion.
google play has a application for these forums, if you download that, that will help fix the display problems
hope that helps

Appreciate it and I already have a themed xda app, I just really prefer the phones browser. I might only spend 10-15 minutes browsing xda at work, so the phone not displaying it properly isn't that big a deal. But it's 8am here and still not displaying correctly on my win7 pc (or the phone browser), so I'm open to suggestions or ideas or anyone who could tell me whats up with xda. Probably spend more time on xda then almost all my other sites combined,so I'm pretty bummed right now.
It is not showing up properly for me either:

yup same.
Oh I thought it was just me...
Really, no one knows why all of a sudden xda isn't displaying properly? This is really annoying so maybe a mod will check in and let us know what is going on. As it is right now, the forum is really hard to follow and is basically unreadable.
Someone please help with this
Here's the solution for anyone still needing it. Thanks to clankfu for answering my post in the Sprint GS3 MOAR thread.

Edit - Tried to edit the title from my op to show [Solved] but didn't see that option.
i was thinking last night, and i changed to the themes, and one didnt show correctly, but soon as i changed to another one, like xda clasic or something like that it was alright.
the ones that are having trouble, hope it works...
to anyone who reads this topic, if you have any other ideas or suggestions excluding theme changing, please here in this topic....
admin or mods: please rename topic and add solved on it
