Hey guys.. new to the tilt and installed dutty's most recent hybrid rom with cube on the 1.64 radio.. noticed that when i go to the recent calls and want to get out by pressing end button.. it goes to a blank screen with the 4 icons at the bottom and cant get out unless i hit the screen and hit okay at the top.. is this a bug?
I have that problem too.... starting a new thread probabally isn't a great idea, answer is probabally burried in the original thread for the rom... but just FYI instead of pressing the red hang up button to get rid of the screen, press the "ok" button directly under it. that will close it without the white screen.
yea i tried digging through everything and couldn't find anything.. so i'll just post my questions/bugs here since i've already created a thread..
I'm coming from symbian so Windows Mobile is a completely whole new platform for me..
Hows the battery life on your phones? I've got through 50% in nearly 10 hours.. which is horrible.. but i've been playing with it all day..
Another thing i found weird was everytime i try to hit the X button on the top right to close the app.. somehow the "Comm Manager" keeps popping up outta no where.. is there some kinda hot button that makes it come up?
Also, the timestamps on my SMS is completely off.. its nearly 5 hours behind.. anyone else experiencing this?
please seemon search....all your questions have been answered somewhere in the forum..theres no way u've been digging through "everything" and havent found anything..
heres something i found in "everything"

Are you sure you have a Tilt?
10 hours of "playing all day" and you've still got 50%?
Anyone else want to know what radio he's got?

I had posted the resolution to the time stamp issue long ago! The thread is still there... I have been using these forums for quite some time and never had to ask a question as all the answers I needed were already posted.
The only exception I found was with the SMS time stamp problem. That was the only topic/issue without an answer. I tried a trick I had for my WM5 iPaq 6955 and to my surprise it worked on WM6 & 6.1. I now use UC to auto add in the reg key needed If you don't know what UC is then check the WIKI.

A cellphone can get a few days of life due to the lack of features they have. This is a Pocket PC phone. It has a large display which you might have the brightness turned all the way max while using it. So in short:
- Larger screen
- Brightness too high
- Wifi, Bluetooth, or GPS left on...
All can cause quick drain on battery! Even the type of mobile processor can cause quick drain. Compared to older Qualcomm chips, the 7200 is not too bad on battery life with the right OS tweaks.

Fido is owned by Rogers so network wise there is no difference... How are you entering the reg key? Are you soft resetting after the reg edit?
i'm on fido and it works for me
Hello there,
I'm by no means an expert with mobile phones, but was recently given a C600 and having done some research on the net managed to unlock the phone myself.
However, although the phone was working fine with an O2 prepay sim card for the past few weeks, it has now decided to have what can only be described as a 'fit' every time i try to use it.
Half the time the three colured screen comes up when i turn it on, which says tornado, and a series of numbers, and then when i can get the phone switched on properly, half the time some of the buttons refuse to work, and the other half the phone will decide to flip between the earpiece volume setting screen, the camera, and the voice command thingy, when all i am trying to do is to text my mate to see if he wants to go for a beer!
Needless to say i haven't had a beer for the last two days, and am a little annoyed about being constantly outwitted by a mobile phone, so i decided to come to the experts for help.
Thanks to anyone who can help me resolve this issue!!
thanks guys, i clearly came to the right place here!
great.
what rom did you install on your tornado?

Wow you waited whole hour and a half before you gave up to wait for an answer, LOL.
PS
Your problem is cammera button - its half stuck so you need to clean it.

didn't change the rom at all as i heard that the new one was no good, its as it came out of the factory...
however, the toggle button is now not responding at all as with many other c600s from what i can tell on the net, so i may have to install the new rom anyway and hope that solves the problem.
i have a feeling that i will have to go through the entire process of unlocking the phone again when i have installed the new rom also, i'm starting to wonder if it is worth it....but i do really like the phone so it would be a shame to give up
thanks a lot for the help, if anyone else can help please post...
thanks

25 and a half hours, but sorry for the impatience its just very frustrating to not be able to use a phone when i have no spare.
i'm pretty sure the problem runs a little deeper than the camera button but i'll give it a try.
thanks
Hey guys, work has kept me pretty busy past month and half. Has there been any big breaking news with the fuze?
A buddy of mine got the verizion version touch pro and he says there has been a fix for the GPS locked by carier issue. Has it been solved for the fuze yet? not a work around but actually solved? I still do the open the telenav run easy gps update quick gps shake my leg pick my nose and open igo and hope I did it all in the right order...
Any other major issues resolved? I'm not going to be lazy I'm gonna start reading through all the past post. I was just hoping some one might help me get back up to speed faster.
Thanks in advance.
Hi friends,
"Beautiful Widgets" was one of the first paid apps I bought for my x10. I LOVED it! It brought a whole new vision and style to my phone, what with the many clock themes and weather styles.
But recently, it's been AWFUL... plagued with bugs and force-close issues and time freezing. I even have been late for an appointment because the bloody time was stuck an hour behind and I didn't notice!
And now, the geolocation option is messed up too... it used to work fine but it tells me I'm somewhere I'm not. I went across town today and it told me I was somewhere I'd never even heard of.
I've e-mailed the dev but had no response, and from looking at the comments on the Android Market, I'm not alone on this one.
I just wondered if there is anyone who ISN'T having issues with it? I kinda wish I'd not updated it but a couple of weeks ago there were updates every couple of days. It's a shame because it worked great for me before the mass-update thing but I have no idea which version it was at before it went horribly wrong.
It was partly due to recommendations from this site that made me look at BW in the first place so I thought I'd start a discussion to see what experiences anyone else is having, or if anyone has found a way to get around this madness!
Mine works fine
It's fine for me too. The 3.xx version us really great, with accuweather.
For me, the best widget pack, and made by à french guy

Works fine for me too. I take it you've tried uninstalling and reinstalling?
I think most problems you and many others are referring to surfaced from version 3 onwards. Your best bet is to find 2.99 and see how you get on with that.
(PM me if you cant find it )
mine is all good too, couldnt live without it.
I was having problems too until i read that 3.xx needs to have a clean instal... did u install the 2.99 version and reinstall 3.06? I think that should remedy some problems like time and proper weather with accuweather. Something to do with different way to access database.
Hope this helps
Thanks for the tips. I do have some backups but I only seem to have 2.82...
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall but it didn't make any difference. I'm wondering if there are data files somewhere that failed to uninstall that are causing problems.
I'll have another go at it... MarylandCookie, thanks for the help, I may be in touch about that 2.99 version if this fails!
This has taught me one thing though... don't update apps instantly if you're happy with how they've been working. MUST make backups first! The only reason I stopped doing that is because I've been running out of space on my memory card with all the music and media I've been storing on there.
Thanks for the tips, I'll see what happens after further fiddling...
Here's an update:
Uninstalled -> Reinstalled from Market.
Same probs with geolocation. Can't be bothered waiting to see if time freezes again; could happen any time.
Uninstalled. Found /sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets folder. Just thought "sod it" and deleted the lot, even though it means downloading my fave themes again.
Reinstalled... and...
Geolocation still way off. NUTS. If anyone has any further advice please let me know!
Maybe you should just not use geolocation and hope the issue is remedied in future updates. I personally aren't having any problems either, maybe everyone else (including me) aren't using the geolocation option? why not just type in your location and save it?
And isn't it just constant rain in England anyways?? lol
i use Geo Location, out of interest are your settings on your handset to allow location by wireless networks or by GPS with Assisted? or all of them?
I tried it with combinations of settings, and in the older versions it's always been accurate, no matter what the settings are.
I'm in a different place every day with my work and I loved that the Geolocation feature was accurate before. Now it tells me I'm at places I'm not at, I find it annoying.
But yeah, it should just say "England: Wet & miserable. Wherever you are."
I've uninstalled it now and gone back to the stock clock. At least I know it keeps the time well...
For example, last Saturday, club I go to shuts at about 2:30am... I checked clock and it said it was about 12:30am... within 20 minutes the lights came on, chucking out time. BLOODY ANNOYING! Yeah I'd been drinking so that doesn't help but I bought that app for the pretty clocks and if I can't trust it, and the dev is unresponsive, then I just give up, to be honest! Just feel a bit ripped off now. I officially give up. For now.
Perhaps he'll fix it some day but it went from updates every few minutes to nothing for about a week. I think he's had enough!
I find the geolocation now to be more accurate for my location at home, although it doesnt seem to update when it should. I went to somewhere 50miles from home at the weekend and the location didnt change once.
Love the app though
Did you try version 2.999?
Ah. I don't have it yet... did you PM me? I must have missed it. Nuts, as I was about to go out too... oh hang on... I've got a smartphone and I'm gonna use it!
Ah... I now have 2.999 and can confirm it works GREAT! Location is spot on, time working okay so far, weather looks good... thanks!
Gods knows why the dev fiddled with it so much after this version... thanks so much for the help!
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Yeah, I sporadically get the same problem. Before v3 I had to make sure there was no space in the location i.e. city,country. Geolocation would put me on the other side of the planet. It's got better now, but time still freezes sporadically.
New update available seems to have sorted out the geolocation issues for me
Yeah, it's typical... just as I was happy with 2.999, all working GREAT (thanks to you-know-who-you-are!) I noticed 3.72 was available so I thought I'd give it a try and it seems MUCH better now.
Typical, as soon as I find an alternative solution the dev finally sorts out what has been driving me nuts for ages!
So it's Beautiful again, and the weather seems to be more accurate too... at the moment... not going to upgrade again in a hurry and may check out how much it soaks up the battery compared to 2.999.
Thanks again for the help and advice.
Honestly, I have to completely disagree.
I have never had a problem with BW since I bought it the first time.
Locator works fine, the weather is generally accurate, and no problem with the time. Granted I live in a large city, so no problems locating, but still. no problems at all. With previous versions or new updates.
Hey there dudes .i just wanna ask something bout this prob of mine now. (Well not actually prob just little issue bout my battery usage) . This thingy just started showing off my smart manager in battery section saying "Learning Usage Patterns" and i really freaked out since i just recently bought this phone last week in an online shop. (It even asked me to update twice) And when i factory reset it yesterday noon (since it lags a bit) i started seeing that thing after the boot and the initialization of the phone.. and i was in panic mode yesterday so that noon its around 6pm i factory reset it again hoping it will fix it. Unfortunately it didnt.. i did tried lookng up the net bout this issue and saw several threads here in XDA and couple of them said wait for couple of days ... and i even contacted samsung support now and they called me telling me i should wait till this 6pm (since it counted as a day) ...so i was wondering if u guys could help me asap... theres no other prob on it. The performance is smooth and all... should i just wait for couple of days? Or is it a prob already in my software?
