unreadable internet - General Topics

Probably a basic question, but in he last few days my internet seems to be corrupted/set up wrong, all I get is the headings, and a serie of boxes and "0's" how do I change this?

First of all it would be great to know what device you have

Sorry touch pro 2, appreciate any help on this.

What explorer are you using?
Have you tried to install any other app that perhaps is bad behaiving?
I use opera mobile and works great!
If nothing else is helping perhaps a hard reset could help.
Anyway, consider doing a deep read here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Raphael
Good luck,

I am using opera, but I am getting the same problem with IE.

Im having the same problem on the TP2 with tmobile uk. I think its to do with the google mobile view for web pages. If I go directly to the page rather than searching for it its fine. Give it a go and let us know!

I think you are right, funny though until a coupe of days ago it was no trouble, could google have "upgraded" something?

Not sure what I have done, but it is now working ok.

Now stopped again, it does seem to be Google causing this, anyone recommend another good mobile search engine?

works for me.
Can access the main website but the forums are dead...
I can't even get to the main website. Keeping my fingers crossed for an update, perhaps they are simply too incompetent to publish an update without bringing the site down We can always hope can't we?
UPDATE: I can load it now. It's the same as always. It looks like they have temporary network problems, so don't hold your breath for an update
I can't access either the main site or the forums site.
I didn't know they were still working on this UI! Last time I logged on, it was a dead forum except for a few straglers....
i was on there yesterday, now the site won't work for me...
Site is working today, 4/10/08 for me. looks like it should be working for everyone.
No new updates to their program sadly.
Yeah its working, i think they have changes there hostings coz it is loading quite fast now.
okay, it works again... but why should we care anymore... i believed that there would be something new coming, but now it seems that PointUI will share SCLPC's Fate as there has not been a new version out of that one either.
Guess it doesn't pay off to do something for free for the community.
yea this sucks. i want something new and fresh and cool for my phone. Anyone have any ideas on something. I've used iPhone themes before, tried the S2U2 things, used the Cube, used Pointui, used Spb Software. Anyone got any ideas on something cool for our phones????
There is a response from one of the developers today in the Support and Bug fixes forum.....
Forgive the multuple posts.....
PointUI is alive http://www.pointui.com/home.aspx
ans it looks f%^*kin awesome....
Wee. Let's revive. PointUi is dead. Getting nowhere >.> I so want the new pointui it looks slick!
It would just be nice if their forums actually were accessible half of the time... It's usually down it seems.

YouTube Tab? ...

Is there any YouTube Tab out there? I have searched and cannot find one....any ideas?
thanks in advance...
I think this would be nice, however I have never seen anything about a stand alone YouTube Tab. I wonder if someone could write the program to add the tab like the guy did for the Facebook Tab.
I searched for some info on how to make a custom tab, but I cannot find anything related to developing a tab.... any ideas?

hey thanks, but that is not what I was talking about....I want to make/find a tab for youtube (like the tabs on the slider, you know-the home, message, mail, internet, weather, settings ...etc,etc.. tabs?)...I also have youtube 2.6 BTW...
so I hope someone can help me out here, I am willing to put in work -the only problem is I cannot find the resources ?.....
+1 great idea
I think the guy working on the facebook tab found that HTC had done alot of the development work themselves and had hidden it away. Atleast thats how it reads. So maybe this isnt such an easy thing to do

Same here buddy, would be nice but doubt we'll se it happen any time soon..
yeah, I agree that it does not seem easy...seems like too much b$ just for something so simple....i dont know, I am not a newbie to programming, but this is like a whole other world of programming (or w/e you will call it)...
in theory: I would need to put a place holder for a new tab OR take an existing one and change it... have that tab point to/open up the YouTube executable and thats it!...
in practice (it seems): I would have to recompile/decompile/edit multiple manila files...? which even that is sounding much more easier than actual 'practice' of this theory...
any ideas?
this is such a great idea it would be very nice if they could figure this one out
it'll be even better if the dev's could skin the YouTube app a little so that it really intergete in sense
i really hope somewone is workingon this
sorry for my english hope ya'll understand my idea
greetz
this is a very difficult project for a very small gain.... to be honest - it may not be done at all, I would very much like to do this, but I think I should put my time towards something more significant...

Someone PLEASE upload Blackboard APK

*Crap- I posted this in the wrong section... Can an admin please move this to general
I am a Verizon user, and from what I hear, only sprint users are privy to the new Blackboard Mobile app on the market... I didn't even know that Google differentiated between providers as to what they are allowed to download until today... Anyhow, if someone could upload the Blackboard Mobile apk, I would greatly appreciate it. I know other Verizon users are also looking for this and I'll gladly share it with them also.
If you don't know what Blackboard Mobile is, it's an online classroom environment used by universities so students can see assignments, download notes, and upload homework - The app is free to download, but is, for whatever the reason, restricted to Sprint users only.
Thanks for your help!

Let me know if it works for you or if you need anything else.
I found my school on it... they haven't enabled the mobile part of BB... ghetto.

Thanks for the upload! But the program itself is still restricted to sprint phones... The apk installs, and the app opens, but when I chose my school, it says that I am not on a Sprint Device and refuses to load anything... How restarted.
Thanks for your help though! Maybe some genius programmer on the Verizon side knows how to fool an app into believing I'm on a sprint network..

You could possibly trick it by shutting off your cellular connection and use wifi... not sure though.
Good luck, bummer it didn't work out.
I didnt even know this existed either, hoping my school enabled mobile also.
just like the iphone version.. still doesnt work with my school either.. whats the deal JUST ACCEPT THE FREAKING APP UNIVERSITIES
should i go ask tomorrow? hahha
wow, nice find! My school hasn't enabled it either though. What can you do with it?
Just a thought. Try loading a Sprint PRL. That may do the trick.
Awesome thanks! My school uses blackboard and I never thought to look for an app for it.
This is great. Downloading now
Edit: It crashes all the time on me. Not stable for my Evo
Why would anyone want this? It has a 2-star rating on the Market. It looks like total trash.
I read about this coming months ago and then forgot. Thanks for reminding me!

If you go to school, or your organization uses blackboard its actually quite handy my friend.. only reason the review is so low is because its sprint exclusive. So people try to use it, can't, and rate it bad. What do you want in a blackboard app, naked women and free drinks?
It wasnt working on the evo, emailed dev and they fixed it within a day. it works now and it works great, id give it 4 or 5 stars definitely worth it.
Alot of school's havent activated this, I asked my school about it, and they said they haven't added it because they haven't got the site where they want it, feature wise, before they add it. Even though I doubt what they do will have any effect on this.
And yeah, the bad ratings are because of all the people ranting about it only being for sprint.

Problem with Bing

Yesterday I tried to use Bing to get some local info, and I got thise trash.
The client update link is visible, but if you pres it you get the same "update?" BS.
So... Microsoft, if this is your attempt to funnel people toward WP7 BEFORE it's as usable, or *customizable* the current versions of WM devices, then by all means go f**k yourselves.
I'll be a Droid user if this is the game they want to play.
With that being said, if anybody has a useful work-around that DOES NOT involve the incredibly ****ty m.bing.com site then by all means, I would appreciate it.
PS:
If this is the wrong forum, i apologize. but i'm looking for help on this one if possible.
try all options
Well I never liked bing and use the google maps preloaded with my device. What features are you looking for that google maps doesnt have, then people could help you out better. Most people dont use bing except for movie listing part.
i use bing

It seems by your theme that you're still using WM6.1. You may want to update to a 6.5 ROM.
I'm just preparing to swith into Android. I'm pised off with that WM crap... ;/
Moved as not Software release.
I had been using it mainly for local searching, movie times, and gas prices.
And yes I am still rocking an old WM6 ROM on a Kaiser.
But still, why just stop supporting it all together? That's pretty disloyal to the same people who have been loyal to them.

BING app stopped from working
Hello Sean D,
I have encountered the same problem with the Bing app running on my at&t TILT. Have you gotten any more feedback, how to correct this problem? Like I mentioned, I'm running a TILT w/WM v6.1 and I'm really not in any mood to go thru the 'possible' upgrade to v6.5. I'm not a graet fan of bing, but the mobile app was perfect for getting info when quickly needed. I will not run the browser version.
Regards,
Rick H.

New MMORPG in Beta

I searched the forums for anything like this and couldn't find anything so I am starting a new topic.
I came across a new Android game that is under beta testing called Runes-MMORPG and from what I have seen, it looks really neat. They need tons of testers and people that will report bugs in the forums.
You need to register in the main site and register in the forums. Note: They ask for a lot of information like your home address; no SSN though After you register in the main site, they will email you some instructions and a link to download their Runes.apk file.
Here's the link to their site:
http://www.runes-mmorpg.com/
Here's a link to sign up to the site and be able to play:
Registration Page
I, unfortunately, can't play it myself because I have a TP2 and the Android port for it is still under development, but I still want to know what you guys think.
Let me know!

I just found out about it like 3 days ago. Too bad I can't try it out any time soon.
watched the video on the site...doesnt seem too exciting anyone play it yet?
I'm registered and downloaded/installed the game a couple of weeks ago, though I haven't really messed with it much.
I found it a tad confusing, so I need to read up on it to better understand what's expected of me.
Anyone else have tips/advice/suggestions?

I very much share the same opinions, Installed it a few weeks ago but stopped playing it for a while because I was a bit confused ons ome aspects..
in the official website last time i checked, FAQ isnt working yet,,
no online manuals/game guide can be found
in the map view, it doesnt show where you currently are..so I cant remember (or maybe im missing something?)
in the spellbook it deosnt clearly say what spells you already have and what you still need to unlock..
i cant explain it that much now, since I stopped playing but the UI seem to take time learning..anwyay, Im not uninstalling yet since this app looks promising..
im in, playing now.. not quite what i was hoping for. going to remove, was hoping will be more 3D action like runescape kinda game.
i beleive it has potential though.
