Java driving me bonkers!!!

Hi there,
I'm quite new to this site and also just recently got hold of the HTC S710. This is really a kick ass little phone. Like a kid who got a new toy i started installing application, one of them Mxit (www.mxit.co.za/wap).
The 1st thing i realized was that i could not use the backspace key, (the 1 with the blue arrow on it) to erase mistyped text, I had to go to the Menu, Scroll up until I got "back" and the letter got erased, i had to do this for every single letter.
Then I installed Dr. Gonzo's Windows Mobile 6.1 v1.1 Rom. It just got worse, the Mxit application got shrinked somehow and didn't display full screen. but i had my backspace button working But still, its quite annoying not being able to have it in full screen like on my Nokia N80 which i had.
Then I installed Dr. Gonzo's New_Guava ROM v.1.0 OS: 5.2.1623.18129.0.4.5, and it runs like a dream, right about until I installed Mxit again and the application got shown in full screen but it cut off my last 3 contacts including the functionality of an inline editor (shows a bar at the bottom on the live chat screen to enter text) but I can not see this bar because its somehow getting hidden behind my Start Menu.
I read a few posts, and came to the conclusion that its got something to do with my JAVA. Right, i download at least 10 different versions, each and everyone doing exactly what i mentioned above.
If anyone can please help me get this sorted out I would be forever grateful. Sorry for the long post, but I had to describe whats going on.
I'm awaiting replies from anyone who can help me
Thanx...

I understand what you are saying.
This is a problem with the Jbed version for Vox.
I was hoping that some other Java version(other than esmertec) might resolve this. But I have no time to try that now.
Have to finish my exams first.
If you can find the IBM J9 or old Tao Intent versions, do try that.

Goodluck with your exams, hope I can get this sorted out before you finish your exams, he he, I really need this too work.

Hi there,
Does your inline edit work, can you see the bar where your suppose to type your text in and is your Mxit fullscreen is it being cut of at the bottom. Oh and do you use the blue arrow key, does it delete text, cos mine just closes the application completely!!
What JAVA version are you running...!?
Thanx, i'm busy testing some other versions right now, so far not so good. Will keep you posted as well.

Okay.....so has anyone got to test Mxit on the Vox...?! I just received my phone back after being sent away for repairs, took about a month!!!!
But now it s back
Anyway, this morning I flashed the VoxRomNEO_v0.8 onto my phone and WOW this is truely an amazing Rom!!!
Okay, back to this thread, I installed Mxit again, hoping that by now I can have it running fullscreen and hopefully be able to see my last 3 or 4 contacts at the bottom but no luck. It is still the same, I'm tired of reading thru Midlet Bibles and all that jazz.......is there anyone out there who could possibly test this and give me some feedback.....please...!!!

Hey everyone,
Okay so this morning I flashed the WM 6.1 (96 dpi) version for the Vox, and guess what, Mxit works, I can see my contacts at the bottom and my inline edit works like a charm. The only problem I got is when I pushed the Blue Back Arrow button (which i normally use to backspace with) it closes the application.
So now my question, did it work because the ROM runs in 96 dpi, or is it the Java version on the phone which is Jeodek Build ID: 20070425.1.1....?
I'm could not get the version downloaded anywhere, but i did find some with heap size fixes......crossing my fingers that it works!!!
Will keep you guys posted....

Hello again,
Okay, so I got my Mxit to work, fullscreen, being able to see all my contacts including the damn inline edit bar at the bottom....
Now I have 1 problem, can anyone tell me how to change the key mapping of the "Blue Arrow Key" on the front display of the VOX.
What happens is, i use it as a way to backspace and delete text. But everytime i press it, it ask me if i want to close the Java application....
Can anyone tell me how to fix this please....?!

AT&T Fuze (Raphael) ROM Cooking

Hey well when i got this phone from HTC, it came with the at&t bloatware on it. I originaly flashed the htc firmware without a radio. Worked fine other then they keyboard drivers were weird since AT&T thought it would be a great idea to change up the keyboard.
So (Unless someone did this already and i didnt see it in the wiki) im cooking up the HTC Firmware with AT&T radio and drivers. anyone know where the keyboard drivers are? i have both ROMs extracted ready to go.

There are no keyboard drivers. It's just a change in the Registry
It's the same change as for the kaiser -> Tilt.
I've attached the cab and it should get the job done. I forgot the registry edit though, you can find it in the very long at&t fuze thread in Raphael general.

so you need the cab along with the registry change?
does it change all the links on the keyboard or just where the numbers and symbols are?

No. It's an either/or thing. Either you get the cab and install it, or you change it in the registery.
It changes everything from keyboard to numbers and symbols to where the special keys (sms, email, etc.) are.

Hey Kraize thanks for this, will have to check the wiki later to see if there is mention of this as it will be a common question in the next week or so.

Don't thank me. Thank TarusBulba. It's his cab, I just renamed it and re-upped it.

cool thanks. New problem though:
I have the HTC box firmware(as explained above) Os only, so i didnt get the radio package. After installing it, to make sure i was up-to-date i went onto the wiki and downloaded the latest radio firmware for AT&T. It seems as if every time i put a SIM in i cant get edge or 3G signal. My house is typically both depending on where your standing and such. Any ideas?

Cool wiki updated

Okay. I think I understand your question, but could you explain exactly what the problem is? I mean do you want a constant signal on 3G or something? I don't understand exactly.

Word Completion Help

I realized that I know almost NOTHING about my phone!! My word completion is not working correctly...all the websites I've gone to say something about changing the registry values...but I have NO CLUE how to get to that, let alone change it! Please someone explain this to me step by step! I had the Tilt before this and I loved word completion! Thanks

There's a fix you can find somewhere that disables T9. That's what causes the Fuze's weird word completion. However, by using this fix to get the Tilt's style of word completion you will lose the hardware symbol key (it won't work anymore). I will upload the cab later. I think I need to download it again

I am kind of new here but I did find setting about word completion
start/setting/input/option/T9 setting
there are some check boxes that say word completion try enabling or disabling them and see if that helps.
There is a program called total Commander that has a registry editor just Google it to find it

To the best of my knowledge there is no working solution.
I tried the registry changes ages ago that turned off the crappy t9 but it fecked up the full size software keyboard, when I clicked on the numbers tab it refused to go back to the abc option and I had to hard reset, changing the reg keys made no difference.
Other tweaks ended up auto completing words even when I didn't want them to.
Hope you get lucky, if you do, please post back

here's the solution: http://www.fuzemobility.com/autocorrect-and-autocompletion-solved/

Opps
I lied- sorry- it is fixable
haven't checked the link above but here is a soluion that i had tried previously and it now works perfectly.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=526353#post526353
read post 65 and 67
This solution will require free and instant registration with ppcgeeks to download the cab file but you just transfer it to your phone, navigate to it and click on it- no need to play with the registry.

Swype from 2.07 rom required

HI can anyone tell me where to get new skype from 2.07 rom ???
thanks in advance.

You won't find anyone with it here. The best solution is to simply flash to a ROM that has it.

I have so much data on phone can't backup all of it so dont wana change rom for time being........

Im not sure where to grab the version of swype that has been extracted from the 2.07 rom... i am trying to find it myself!
The swype cab created from the version ripped from the Samsung Omnia 2 is all over the web though... google should bring up a couple of places to download it from.
Does anyone know of any differences between the two versions?

You will have to search in the underground... Extracting the software and offering it as a cab is clearly not wanted by the creators and owners of the software. Offering links to warez is completely against xda rules.
The difference between the 2 might be some more language support, and that the HD2 version was made for HD2, as simple as that. I think it still might be an option to flash a ROM which carries it on board - or, at least, as long as this is tolerated.
Maybe in the close future, HTC will bring another ROM update which offers this great piece of software. Or, as stated otherwise, Swype might decide to make a retail offer at some time. If they do at a decent price, I believe they could do great business - as seen with other products, at unreasonably high prices, you won´t sell big, but at fair pricing, you can succeed.

I cannot find the new version anywhere!
If anyone has a link or would like to email it to me that would be very much appreciated!!

Cheers!
It's also here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5679513

I had the same thing, only installed yesterday so didn't do much checking of the phone. Quite a few problem were caused by the T-Mobile version . Data connection is screwed and all email passwords needed to be reset and my Wifi password are also gone lol. Did some reading online as well and quite a few other people have experienced the same problems, some have even had to HARD RESET to get their phones working correctly, fortunetly for me just uninstalling the CAB and giving the phone a few minutes resolved my Data connection issues , will put back on the Omnia version and leave it at that for the time being.
So I advice using the newest version of Swype with EXTREME caution!!!!

I tried it after much hesitation... Had to do a new setup for all email accounts, data connection and wifi connection. But it seems to be fine now, I'll see in a few days if it stays like that.

I'm using SWYPE WVGA 3.9.10.10.5032 on my HD2 without any problems.

Had the same, but all I had to do was re-enter the passwords (and mail servers for gmail) and re-run the connection setup wizard. Now I'm fine and dandy and the software is nothing short of awesome... Supports Italian, German, French, English and Spanish; I tested all languages and it works fine

I'd say it is a crucial addition to the HD2, as I use it every day, and it makes my text input much less of a chore. It is particularly useful because of its multi-language support. I've never had any problems like those described, thankfully.

have you guys done any soft resets since the initial reset after installation? I also found the keyboard became slow to start after I played with the setting. the omnia 2 version is working better for me and with the htc skin looks awesome.

I can't believe no one else posted this...
If you overwrite the ModelID with the file provided, you are effectively telling your phone that you are now....a...tmobile hd2.
The swype keyboard has protection in it...only a tmobile hd2 will work with it.
hence why you need the modelid
now here is the kicker...
Say sprint - you run sprint tv. get an error. wanna know why? sprint asks "what phone" and your phone replies "tmobilehd2.
Same thing with prl updates...
I think you get the point...
when you overwrite the modelid, all exchange accounts - gone (sorta). Your 4 digit pin become a lockout - no pin will unlock it.
in short, bad things happen.
And this is why you always provision your phone before you set it up. part of provisioning is setting the modelid...
which is why people on mighty that forgot to provision before seting up exchange need that fix e-mails cab...
any questions?

@leepriestenator, if I don't use any provider software, I can install swype without any problem right ?

leepriestenator is correct. Thanks. As our phones are all unlock where we are, the problem is just resetting the mobile provider. It is working fine on my phone, though the phone identity is now T-mobile_Leo.
Having said that, it is a much improved version over the one in Samsung.

[Resolved] [Q] Transfer SMS from SIM to Phone in WM?

I've looked everywhere for the answer, but can't seem to find it.
I am having trouble copying text messages from my SIM-card to my phone memory.
Is there anyone who knows how to solve that issue? I am using an HTC Diamond with WM6.5.
Thanks a lot.
EC

Bump for visibility.

hahahahaha I had tried this for a very long time!
Seriously it too annoying!
In the end all I could do is :
put my sim in a nokia phone
transfer messages to the phone
sent them to diamond via bt!!
Sorry for the lame solution, but there is no other way!

Asus sim manager
Asus sim manager(any version) does it
Sorry dont have .exe n other related files.

Thanks.

allright, here's quickmade cab of asussimmgr.
idd, there's option to copy sim msgs into device(and from device to card) there, hmm nice.
i am not sure, if it will work for HTC devices(i've added policy to cab that should allow that), but i think it should.

Thanks

And YES, it works! I am very glad you guys helped me out!
Thanks a lot!

You can also use apps below to save the sms located on sim card & import to device.
Have done so on wm2003se wm5 wm6 wm6.1 & wm6.5 custom ROMs

i don't exactly know what you guys here are talking about...
but if its simply about copying a sms from the sim to the phone (as the title suggests) then i don't see how come no one's posted the most obvious solution i've used myself before...
just as background info to those who need to know- i'm running a com5 23569 self-cooked rom on my htc gene (p3400)
and i stumbled upon the solution to this problem you mentioned while going through one of the millions of flashes and restores we chefs go through...
all i did to copy the message onto the phone memory was open the msg to view it and then hit the left soft key to open the menu and the last option on the menu list simply reads 'copy to phone'...i tap on that and voila!! its done...
do let me know if it works coz i don't think it would be this simple and yet left untried by anyone else and requiring external apps to be installed for it to be done...

don't usually have to contend with too many messages myself...this only arises when i put my sim into a temp phone while the flashing process completes...and at worst i have 4-5 messages to contend with...
ppcpimbackup is my first pick too but i don't remember trying it out on sim messages...worth a shot though...

WOW plenty of options available! thank you guys.
