2 questions pls - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

hey guys i have 2 questions for u ...i'll be glad if u'll be able to help me .
1st Q- sometimes im listening to music using my earphones. im putting the phone itself on vibrate , and then changing the volume of the song by pressing on the volume buttons on the side of the phone . i see the tab which has 2 parts - system and ringer . im changing the system only , and the ringer is still on Vib. but when i have a phone call its ringing .. am i doing something wrong ?
2nd Q- on the main screen , on the middle,there is the clock and weather.
when pressing on it , i can see 2 options :" my current location " and also the name of the city where i am. sometimes , instead of writing the name of the city ,, its writing " my current location " and i have to change it.
i doiwnloaded a fix someone posted here , but it helped me only for the weather tab , to remove th current location from the locations list.
how can i fix it also regarding the clock ?
sorry for the length i was trying to make it as clear as possibe

oops
i posted it in the wrong forum
sorry ..

Sensor and Call

I heard that the RAPHA if it is getting a call you have to rotate
the phone and it will be silent ...
But mine doesn`t work ....
Any ideas ?

Yes, RTFM! (Page 55)
what is supposed to be in page 55 of which manual peter?
The user manual, can be found at HTC's website under "support".
It should be a setting you can turn on and off, and turning the device over silences calls.

I heard if you put it face down it would silence the phone. I don't have one, but that was what i read somewhere.
That`s the text:
"You can also place your phone face down on a table to mute the ring without
rejecting the call."
But ...it doesn`t work

it's not in page 55 in all manuals
in any case the text only mentions what the device SHOULD do, not if you can turn this function on and off
so no, you are wrong
(btw works for me anyway)
hi Peter
I think you need to make a change to the registry (see point 4 on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398265)
If your next question is now do you edit the registry you need to download something like PHM RegEdit.
This worked for me

Hi - thanks again for this advice: . Switch Mute Call on phone flipped face down: HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE : FaceDownMuteRing: change value to "1" (FIXED: thanks KuKuRiKu and everyone)
But I already did it and it`s still not working !
Switch Mute Call on phone flipped face down: HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE : FaceDownMuteRing: change value to "0"
This worked for me..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2475291&postcount=1
You know it only works if the phone is face up when the call comes in? Then you turn it over and it stops ringing. If the phone is face down already then it doesn't work.
Thank you Steve ...I tried it....but ...

Other problems found in 3.04WWE

Not just "short battery life" ,that found in 3.04WWE , but also has others ...
Last week , I installed - reinstalled - uninstalled ROM ( WWE3.03 and 3.04 ) about 5-6 times, and I has experienced other problems in the following list.
1. Sometimes , Someone call me and thay said the signal cut automatically.
I felt this was unusual , so I started to examine .I told my friend to call to my phone number , they said the signal cut after call out to my number. while my phone show up Light , like it is going to show "In Coming Call" , but no ringtone , no in coming call shown up...
2. I usually set to loudest sound . But with WWE3.04 , I need to turn of sound and Turn it on again to get loudest ringtone , everytime after restart ( soft-reset ) the phone.
3.Contacts list didn't show up until I touch some alphabet order to search.
... that is what I found in WWE3.04 ...
-Thank You-
Mine is freezing sometimes when I receive a call and also the phone restarted sometimes when I'am browsing some files....
No unlock keys in rom 3.04
The only working key is the power on/off key.. You can not turn on the screen after the phone is turned off by pressing any key other than the power on/off key.. And the icon in setting " unlock keys " is no longer present in rom wwe 3.04...
yes, Generation 9 doesn't support NoKeyLock, I hope G9.5 will support it...
I think the use "unlock keys" will automatically call so few people prefer to use . you should press power after the call ifwant.
I never use lock keypad when my pda's screen is off
--------
Hope to soon have the G9.5, the G9 is complete early to continue with the G9.5 soon

Hi, I had the same problem but this happens mainly because of the SD problem for 04 roms. Please see if you have ringtones, pictures or UI like pointui or SPB installed in SD memory. You have to install all these in main memory and Point 1 is solved. Not sure about the point 2 and 3.

[Q] Multiple questions regarding android in general

I am new on android and i am quite liking my Moto Fire XT :victory:, but here are a few questions that I have.
Q1 :
Can I change the notification sound to a custom tune of my liking ? For any application ( Messaging , Watsapp , facebook, gochat) whenever i goto their notifications , i get the same set of stock options.. I have a file thats 3 seconds long , how to i set that??? does it have to be in a certain format to be set as notification tone?
Q2:
Most people say it doesnt happen , but my power/unlock button is getting harder to reach by the day. i guess unlocking it 50 times will make it go in. Is there a way I can bring up the unlock screen using the volume rocker/camera buttons??
Q3:
I like the idea of swiping to unlock , but everytime i do it , it vibrates. any way to remove that?? I have disabled vibration from setting--->sound---->vibrate----> never
Q4:
Ok here is probably the most stupid question.. but is it possible to have a different text input method?? having human sized fingers, the qwerty is too small , not a very big fan of swype , and the moto keypad is crapp..
I was using the Nokia X6 for 2 years before this and was very happy with the messaging , just like that on a phone with buttons , full numeric keypad with T9 dictionary made it a charm to type on.. any chance of having it here??
My phone is rooted , so most apps will install , running android 2.3.5
Q1. just copy your sound file to sd card/media/audio/notifications.
Q3. look for haptic feedback somewhere inside settings and turn it off
---------- Post added at 06:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 PM ----------
Q4. settings/language n input/keyboard settings/input method/phonepad. this should let you type thru 9key multitap or T9 keyboard.
Thanks for answers the first question :cyclops:
Haptic feedback is for the capacitive touch buttons I believe , its disabled already , but whenever i swipe it still vibrates.
As for the T9 , i was asking i a more proper layout would be somehow possible.. the "moto input" as its called , is very clustered... i used a banking app the other day. and the keypad they provided to type so just perfect and minimalistic
Thanks

well, then you can search for "keyboard" on play store, most of them aren't free though
Would any custom rom be having such a thing ??? Is there a section here where i could request a rom or something like that perhaps??
OK got that fixed... what i needed was NumberPad Keyboard

How to silence a call (not cut it) ?

[2 deep breaths]...
Okay, I have searched it but there was no answer corresponding to Atrix 2.
A call is coming and I want to silence it. I will not cut it because I dont want caller to know that I deliberately cut his call. In E71 there if I press right menu button, i can silence all calls (which stops vibration + ringtone in between). How do I do it for Atrix 2? This is not for all callers, I should be able to decide whose call I want to silent at that particular moment.
I dont want temporary/workarounds like keep it in silent mode/press volume button all the way downwards, etc. Thanks.
Press power button. Silences the call and locks the screen with out hanging up.

Just Press the volume up button once when you are getting a incoming call it will silence the ringer.
Next time, instead of starting a new thread please post your further questions in this thread only, we would love to help you.. but instead of starting a new thread for each question, put all your questions here.. no offense or no ill intent, just to keep the site clean

Question:
I dont know who deleted my post which said that my screens automatically shuts off. So i adjusted my screen timeout to 1minute. But still the screen turns off after 5 seconds. This is very annoying because I keep my phone on table, reading something on it, and suddenly the screen turns off after 5seconds. Help !

Perform a factory restore it will resolve your issue. Go to settings/privacy/factory data reset.

I am thinking of simple things first, make sure that you are not on maximum battery saver mode. Go to settings --> battery and data manager --> battery mode --> select the performance mode..
See if this solves the problem.. if it doesnt then let me know if you have installed any battery miser kind of apps.

Ok, will try that. Meanwhile, other issues:
1) I downloaded the facebook app. But it never logs in. It keeps on saying "loading". Similarly, when I try to sync social networking app/widget, youtube doesnt sync. It says "youtube sync failure". Why is that?
2) I recieve an SMS containing a mobile number. In E71, I could select the number and save it to a contact. This is not possible in Atrix 2. When I recieve an SMS containing a mobile number, there is no option to save it. This is the basic requirement of an SMS. Any ideas?

Pattern lock?
Is there a pattern lock feature for A2 like in case of galaxy s2 and iphone? If yes, how to enable it? All I have is number/passcode lock feature. In IPhone, the passcode is 4 digits and after that we dont have to press enter key, but in A2, i have to enter passcode and then press enter key (which is too much of extra pain).
Settings --> location & security --> setup lock screen --> pattern
Just dig into settings you will find everything you want.

Pattern option is "disabled by device administrator".
I see what is happening here. Since I had setup my phone to use my office email, i have having such problems like screen automatically shutting down and inability to use pattern lock !!
Thats my best guess.

yes, that is because you are now forced into a corporate security policy. No way around that unless you stop using your office exchange account on your device. an easier way is to forward your mail to gmail, and setup a way to do this over https. This is all on the gmail site, so don't ask how to do it in here.

This should have been the first thing that you posted, little info like this my friend is vital..
Android gives you freedom, use it and start exploring.. it doesnt mean that people here dont like noobs, everybody here started pretty much as noobs, i still consider myself a noob. But what everybody expects here is, do your bit before asking questions.. explore the your mobile, search the web, even then if you cant figure it out, then search the forums even if you cant find it then post your query.
No offense and sorry if i may have hurt you..

All u hv2 do is to PLAY with ur fone dude ....
xplore everythin .... make mistakes (only when u hv powerful tool of flashing back ) ... try each n every settin
mistakes make u learn faster (not @all intention of lecturing u :laugh: )
So I installed a new sandisk 16gb card microSD card yesterday (after formatting it first in PC, then in phone) and put some songs in it. More problems started:
1) Randomly, the phone says "no sim card". I have to restart the phone to get my sim card working. This is frustrating.
2) When I woek up in morning, the phone was dead. Something drained the battery to 0%. Why?
3) The notification was automatically set to some random song. Why?
Have you tried taking out the memory card.. see if it solves your problem.. though few things are strange in your case, but take out your new memory card out.. and pls dont ask why because there are already ample threads on "class 10 memory cards not working with A2"
