Video Call
Just the feature that i'm waiting for to make this WM6 upgrade a complete upgrade for HTC Universal. Please make it happen! Thanks!

Hello,news for videocall?Thank you
maury

Video Call Is Working With Me
Well good news
i dont know how i did it .. but its working anyways
i upgraded my universal to "Jwrightmcps" wm6 and i was so happy with it. but then i was dying to watch TV on my mobile so i wanted to downgrade to the original WM5 (i got it from Imate official site)
but also no luck. it stuck in the middle of upgrading the Radio when i tried to restart it. it showed me error and took like ages to load saying NO GSM
then i played with the files from here and there and tried to reload any Windows mobile OS just to get my universal working. and guess what..
Its now WM6 with 3G
YES 3G
it shows on the operator name "UMTS Etisalat" and on the top bar it shows 3G instead of G.
so i believe its something needs to be played around with the new OS a bit more attention i believe.
now i have
RADIO 1.13
ExtRom 2.01.08
ROM 2.01.08
Let me know if you need anything.

What on earth has that got to do with video calling working?

Just got the S730

I just bought the HTC S730 today
Where is the s730 forum here?
I have tried like a crazy person to get the 'built-in' gps to work, but i cant even find one satellite :-( Perhaps they have disabled it in the Rom...
Cant wait to hear from other users who have bought the final version of this phone and if they can get the gps to work..

Could you upload your HTC Home screen? I think a lot of users (including me ) are waiting here for this. Would you be so kind please?

As soon as I have time we will research it. If the hardware is really built in we will get it going some time (it *will* take time tho)

Got my S730 a few days ago. Loving it so far, except...
Couldn't find any satellites with Google Maps so the GPS does indeed appear to be disabled in the final ROM. I hope someone finds a "fix" for this soon. ;-)
Also, I can't get BlackBerry Connect 4.0.0.76 or 4.0.0.84 to connect RIM. My subscription is enabled (works fine on my BB Pearl) but I can't get a PIN on the S730. If anyone has managed to get this working, I'd love some help.
Cheers

I would be happy to. But i have no idea how to extract it from the phone?

Go to Application Data and the best is you copy the whole Home-Folder and upload it.

Here you go
Hope you can use it...
Can someone btw tell me how i can get more appointments to show in the HTC Home Screen?

Thank you very much! But not working on Vox, there are some missing files in system and plugin support.. I think the clsid is different from the Vox's one and it will be more difficult to make it work.. It only shows appointments I will do some researches
And your question - I tried to find it inside of xml, but not there.. HTC made a configurator to modify HTC home on PPC, so maybe for smartphones it also will appear.. I guess

GPS seems to be in HTC S730
I got my S730 today. Have tried with Efficasoft GPS Utilities for Smartphone v2.0 and Chartcross GPS Test Version 1.04. Both programs finds 0-1 satelliets, not enough for positioning, but there seems to be a GPS. But whay can't it identify enough of satellites?

Off course, if someone explains how to do it i will be happy to do it.

*If* the hardware is indeed enabled, you might want to extract drivers from a Kaiser rom. Whether the hardware is indeed present and enabled is hard to determine from the unclear statements in this thread...

Please explain how we can verify if the GPS hardware is present and enabled? I tested with Google Maps and adamwasta used a number of other tools, so what can we do to make it less unclear for you? Thanks.

HTC TYTN II ----or----- HTC s730
Can someone please help me decide between the HTC Tytn II OR the HTC S730? I am a heavy texter, sometimes check email, and want a fast phone. I'm worried that the HTC s730's keyboard is not comfortable -- can someone that uses it give me a heads up on how comfortable/good it is? Is the WM Smartphone's UI annoying? - i've been using pocket pc for a long time & I just want to know if its difficult to switch to a standard smartphone like the HTC s730? Thanks in advance for your feedback & comments - they are all much appreciated

Hmmm i havent tried yhe Tytn so i cant compare the two phones. But i had a Touch before i bought my S730 and i must that it was a step in the right direction text-typing-wise... The s730 is not as good to type on as an Nokia Communicator (imo the best phone for typing), but it's pretty good. And its great to have two options for typing : numeric with T9 and the qwerty inside...
About the smartphone ui....Grrrrrr it is a little bit annoying.. I hate that the settings are so locked. You have far few options in the settings compared to the PPC interface. But then on the other hand there are some features that works better on the smartphone than on the PDA.
All in all i am a very happy little piggy with my S730. I would not trade it for any other phone on the market.

I am also pretty happy with the S730... i used to have a vox and a wizard i must say I keep going to press the screen on the s730 because i was used to ppc but im sure it wont take long for me to get used to it..
one thing battery for me at least seems to be an issue.. fully charged at 7am this morning I had 1 bar left by 11am... Martin is your battery life the same?
the keyboard on the s730 is excellent very good i am already beginning to become a gun on it.. as for the kaiser my friend has one they are way too big for me i guess you need to ask yourself do you want a phone with pda features or a pda with phone features?

Brisbane_guy : I have not expirenced such lousy battery time as you describe. My battery last for about 2 days and i dont turn it off at night. So about 48 hours. But i have disabled BT and WIFI most of the time...

Many thanks Martin & Brisbane for your feedback I'm going to buy the s730 based on your positive feedback

You really should consider the Asus P750. It's only 130g, has 3g, gps (sirf3), wlan, bt2.0, touchscreen, WM6 Prof, 520MHz ARM, 256MB flash and 64MB ram.
On Modaco someone called it the kaiser killer.

Hi Jocky thanks for the info - however I'm a qwerty keyboard lover and absolutely cannot live without one --- any ideas on a small phone with a qwerty keyboard that has strong specs, please let me know many thanks

I took something good from my O2 XDA Flame.
It comes from wm5 device and works fine in my kaiser and Cruise. After the installation do a soft reset.

Are you kidding? This few simple dialogues are no problem even

I am from yesterday a happy Touch Cruise owner and i think you must try this for better sound in your devices.
Maybe i must try to cook something.

Just to let you know this did not work on my polaris.
I have an Orbit 2 that i haven't had time to upgraded the ROM on so its the stock o2 windows mobile 6.1 with 1.59.44.02 radio that i have upgraded.
When i installed the cab, did a soft reset and attempt to enable it said that there was an error and it couldn't load the driver. After that i had no sound whatsoever. When i uninstalled this my sound returned.
Has anyone any ideas what the problem is?
thanks

the same for me!!! some driver misssing!!!

Same here... and no sound anymore! Even after deinstallation and soft-reset!!! It's not compatible with win 6.1!
But uninstall isn't enough: I think it is the wavedev-entries in the registry! Can somebody please export his Wavedev in registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev] for me or give me all values in there? Thank you so much!!!

Okay, I did a little reasearch. Try this cab here. This will do the job for the polaris with windows 6.1

SRS Wow HD, seriously screws up your sound irreversably ALL THE TIME. When you turn off the SRS, it doesn't revert your sound to factory, it reverts it to garbage, same with when you uninstall SRS. As for using SRS, it sounds decent, but the fidelity of your sound is lost. Try plugging your cruise into an aplified system and crank up the volume. You'll notice that the sound starts to clip and degrade much more quickly than before as the volume goes up.
I used to use this program all the time, until I realised what I was missing after a hard reset reverted me to factory sound once again.
EDIT: And to the people who asked about bluetooh, yes it can be made to work with bluetooth after a registry change, however, like I said before, you don't gain very much using this program.

Speeding up the Orbit?

I got my orbit last friday and apart from having a quick mess around with a few apps like iFonz and others i have not really touched on anything.
But i have noticed that the phone seems to be quite sluggish and would like to know if its possible to strip it right down to the core and then enabled features one by one to speed it up?
If i dont get this thing running a bit more snappy i may not be keeping it for long!

It's just generally a crap device...
I'm seriously thinking of getting rid...

It depends,
If you have HARD SPL so you can upgrade easily by copying the rom (.nbh) file to mem card and it installs by itself (there is thread in "polaris upgrading" forum explains exactly how 2do it).
If you don't have HARD SPL look for guides how to make it cause without it your cruise is "locked" for installing new roms.
I bought mine with HARD SPL installed so i donno how 2do it..

find yourself a nice WM6.1 ROM, e.g.

O2 Upgrade 1.72.xxxx

Morning All,
Just a quick question to those who recently upgraded to the new O2 Rom....
The Manila version is 2012, but I can't for the life of me see any of the talked about differences (extra tabs, ability to reposition contacts etc...) At present I looks and feels like o2 / HTC have just renames 1920 to 2012.... Can someone prove me wrong?
Also whilst I'm on the line.... I've lost the home screen icon for the taskmanager and can't find (and believe me I've searched) for the right cab / tweak to get it back....
Finally, (sorry) way before o2 got their act into gear there were masses of modifications to the 2012 version of Manila.... Have these all died out?
Thanks for your pearls!!!

Interesting...
I've just sent my HD2 back to O2 for repairs (batt/charging problem)
Wanted to know, will they update it to the latest Rom/Radio/Manila?
Not sure if I want them to now....
Going to mess up my ready to go back up.... sigh... I feel a new build coming on...

I believe that they will - happened to me previously....
Does Manila 2012 support landscape? All I get a blank screen.....
I've never been so confused... thought I knew the phone well........

Very good upgrade.
Phone is faster now and the battery keeps longer.
Installed all applicactions, everything works fine

+1
Since ive had it, it hasnt slowed down at all or needed a soft reset. Noticably faster.
Can anyone tell me how to find out what hotfixes are included in the Rom so I know what I still have to install?
Thanks
