O2 Upgrade 1.72.xxxx - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

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

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..

Wanted: Original Dutch MDA Vario IV ROM

Anyone?
The speaker sounds weird and very softly (yes, i tried to raise the volume), so I want to bring it back for warranty...
I guess this time I was a bit to fast with flashing my device...

WIKI is always your friend Raphael owners are pretty much smaller so much of the information you need can find it in the wiki. Good luck!

I wouldn't know why you'd want to use the stoch Dutch T-mobile rom. It sucks bigtime. I have an unbranded Dutch TP and 2 of my friends got themselves a Dutch T-Mobile TP (Vario IV) and the Vario IV rom is very buggy. It has major slowdowns, hangs en it's causing a mayham in the contacts list every time.
T-Mobile is completely unwilling to do anything about it so they returned their phones.
Crap like this is the main reason why I wanted an unbranded TP
Simple!
You can easily download the original rom from T-Mobile.nl

Our implementation of it couldn't. However I know that the iPhone can and I believe that our touchscreen is capable, but even with that modified java stack we're only getting two points of information from the driver.
All this will take time but i think will be possible,i am waiting for the multi-touch to get really going such as apps,maps etc.... having the function. We still don't have a full working cupcake or a market thats not BETA cause the market was suppose to get an update a while back. They said flash is coming? when who knows and jan 1 apps could sold where are those?. The problem is to much at one time and nothing is getting done. Only thing really getting done is the stuff that the fans like all of us are doing. :::::::::::::

Awesome G-sensor animated lock application

Can anyone port this to the HD2 ????????
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdbQAnPN4jU
wow this looks awesome !
Yet another toy... if you like this kind of fetish get an iPhone. It is the best in that area. Do not forget what PPC means.
You just can download it here: *CLICK*
Tried it and it does not work. Getting an error when I want to apply anything in settings...
Yes this looks great ,but how to download it? on developers site there is no download link ...
Ups got it
click on the title of the post.. then it will forward to the download
Hmm doesnt work.Error.....
This is what the site says about S'Skin Lock
S’Skin Lock Application has 1 setting menu to set locking time and screen backlight.
Currently they are working on Samsung Omnia only, I have tested them on HTC HD2 too but they aren’t running. If any of our readers got them to work on their devices let us know.
it's on
http://www.wmskins.com/blog/sskin-lock-new-animated-lockscreen-application-for-windows-mobiles
must have hardware detection inside, even on samsung it only work on certain model.
i would like to have that 2
i checked and it requires the flashlite_mmi.dll
it is available in Omnia2 dump OS.nb.
Dont know if it uses any more sensors from Omnia. I would like also to use this one on HD2. Any more advance ppl could help maybe?
Deleted.......
has anyone contacted the developers regarding a htc compatible version?
We can try to install the adobe flash lite 2.1. Now I can swtich on the setting button in the startMeun. But the srceen lock still can't run. >_<
NoNe said:
Whether I have sent an e-mail having asked there will be a support of other phones. I look forward to hearing. And program YellowMan, Butterfly I have started on the HD2 but G-sensor does not work in the program.
But the blocking picture is displayed also an unblocking works correctly. In Butterfly the butterfly flies at a touch to the screen as is shown in video, but the back background is static.

Which steps have u taken to make it work till now?
Maybe we could trick/hack the G-Sensor or smth.
I really don't see anything impressive in that. Actually useless to me. Just as a a guy at the begining of post said: Iphone like fetish... Nice, but useless.

Why can't we have something nice, even if it's useless?!
I completely understand: The iphone is a toy, the HD2 is a powerful device with endless productivity possibilities... But why does that have to mean that the opposite is also true - Only the iphone can have cool toys? Never understood that argument...

Bamboozling SMS Issue...

I've struggled with this issue for days now... Maybe somebody can help.
I'm dropping most of my text messages. I can successfully send them, but I do not receive them.
I figured it was a problem with SuperbadCM 1.5, because the problem seemed to begin after I updated to 1.5. I've tried downgrading, flashing after a wipe, removing LauncherPro (memory issues?)... nothing fixed it. Then I tried the latest CM5.0.8t2 on a clean wipe, no good, and even flashed an old nandroid of King's 1.5 sense rom... still no message.
What could be the issue? AFAIK everything else works.
I doubt it matters, but I'm using a G1 latest radio and dangerspl. I'm not sure if a logcat of this is possible, but I'll provide whatever info necessary. Thanks for your help. Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
if you know what rom it is from would it not make more sense to post in that rom thread and or use SEARCH to find if others witht he same rom are having the same issues and know of a fix....
have you tried a different rom? maybe an eclair 2.1 perhaps??
I've had the very same issue on DangerSPL. I'd recommend using Firerat's AnySPL Patch on Cyan's mod while using stock/Hard/Engineering SPLs.

makes sense, because the issue probably lies on a lower level than the rom. I'll try this now, thank you.
I flashed HardSPL over 2.22.23.02, then Firerat's AnySPL CM5.0.8t1. I'm still not getting text messages... Any other ideas? This is a pretty serious issue for me :/ what's most confusing is the problem occurred months after it was working fine.
If the problems still occurs, you may want to contact your service provider about this problem.

Looks like this is the only solution... I appreciate your input, thanks
What country are you in? I'll bet its the hsxpa and gprs class settings.
Also, you pretty much answered your own question in the first post, it happened after you went to a specific ROM, there's something wrong with it's settings.
It's all right. There was a time when the opposite-sex didn't want to text me back either!
Mmm. Mommys making me ribs! Anyone want some?
And HEY! Just because most of my posts are pointless, doesn't mean you can flame me!
But ehh. I'm on SuperBad and don't have this problem... hmm?

I have no idea where this post is going...
But I got the problem sorted out... Proto was right, apparently I had a bad sim card somehow and got it swapped out. It wasn't the spl or any rom.
I think I let myself forget this is the internet -_- 1/9000 people are brilliant, the rest are hostile and dumber than bricks.
OH HEALLLL NO! YOU DID NOT JUST TALK TO MY G1 LIKE THAT!
/Turns to G1.
"It's okay baby. he didn't mean it."
"You made her cry... HAPPY!?
go into terminal and fix_permissions

Did you try handcent sms? It has a workaround to an android bug that leads to sms loss when there's not enough memory available.
Yup. Baby steps. Last time this happened to me it was a network issue in my area and just had to wait it out. Any time I'm having SMS issues, I always call to see if the network is jacked up before heading another direction.
Did you not get a notification of a bad SIM? I thought these phones would have been able to detect a bad SIM... At any rate, I'm glad you got it fixed up.
