I have decided to open a Questions and Answers thread on this section of the forum. This is a good way to keep the number of new threads with questions down to a minimum, which will make new threads essentially for people that are contributing to the Magician. This includes, but is not limited to, people that are providing the following:
- Roms & Kitchens
- Programs & Apps
- Fixes & Tweaks
- Skins & Themes
- Tips & Tricks
I would like to request the help from other members to keep the thread in order and in check. This will have the added side effect of creating an ever self updating knowledge base that will far extend the content of the Wiki. This will in turn save us from having to answer the same question a billion times...
Please refer to the Wiki first before asking any questions though! It can be located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Magician

But now I can't synchronize to outlook, it seems that active sync can't recognize the device... Any workaround about this?
Thanks

No, usually the rebooting-by-itself problem on the Magician is caused by loosed contact on the back cover, you need to put a small piece of paper in order to prevent the device from rebooting alone.
Use activ sync 4.5
hallo... I just took my magician out again... it's not working since 4 years ago, when I, as a terrible dumb man, made it poweroff while installing a radio upgrade.. now all I get is the boot screen and in few seconds it goes to black screen and USB 2.0 (or something similar) on the lower side of the screen... is there anything i can do to make it live again?
Hi everyone, can someone please advise me on the smallest/fastest most naked rom for the Magician?
I used to have a Russian rom which I set to English and this when fully tweaked gave me 42Mb of free ram and I used this for some time (mainly as a backup sat nav)
Anyway over the years I saw the newer roms and decided to try them but the best I can achieve now is around 32Mb free.
I don't care which rom or even if office etc have been removed I just need a really striped down naked rom for my 64Mb Magician.
Anyone please, and I have tried to look but there is sooo many pages and I have tried quite a few Cotula roms.

Hello to all!
After I've upgraded my Magician to 1.13 I recognized my screen disaligns after 5 minutes of use. The I've downgraded to 1.12, but the disalign still stays. After browsing the forum I've recognized that much people have the same problem too. Some guy says that you should downgrade your ROM, or take the unit to the HTC European Service (if you have guarantee).
After browsing in the registry, I've found a regkey about Calibration. I modified it, and now the machine runs good, without disaligning.
So the method is the next:
1. Open your favourite Regeditor (Resco, Total Commander etc.)
2. Open HKLM/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/TOUCH/
3. Open CalibrationData You will see coordinates.
- The first coordinate is always x coordinate, so that is the horizontal
- The second coordinate is alwasy the y coordinate, so that is the vertical
- The first number pair (ex.: x,y) is the center point
- The second one is the upper left
- The third one is the bottom left
- The fourth is the bottom right
- and the last one is the upper right
My screen calibration is:
474,498 814,773 814,228 119,228 119,773
I hope it will help to guys who has the same problem.
If someone finds better calibrate coordinates, pls post it.
Cheers,
cheers for this , I have the same problem and have tried many different tweaks with no result.
My co-ordinates were different but then I was getting a mis-alignment problem I will give your co-ordinates a go and report back.
mine has no issue or whatsoever. working fine since...
my coordinates are:
502,498,862,771 859,223 138,229
hope this helps...
Never got no problems with it.
Coordinates are:
499,503 861,774 856, 231 148,223 142, 773
What a great discovery
Mine is a HTC Charmer (MDA Compact 2) on WM5. My data is very different
1928, 1960 3308, 617 3296, 3316
(WARNING! THIS IS NOT Magician configuration!)
can u tell me more in details pls coz i have the same problem. I must align the Screen oftenly
u wrote : Open your favourite Regeditor (Resco, Total Commander etc.)
Where can i fin this programme ?
pls help. Tks
i found the total comander and do wat exactly wat u say.
But the my problem doesnt solve
calibration data 2020i alpine
i have resive one devise with problems in alighn screen first my thought was that the problem was at rom and the extrom that was missing after lot of trying and with resco registry i found that the calibration data was missing pls pls if any one can help me by posting the coordinates of that device QTEK 2020i
Why don't you ask in the matching topic?
hey guys can you make a permanent fix for the disalignment bug of xda mini?
i have this problem...but i got a solution on this topic,but the problem is when you hardreset the ppc its going back again the problem unless you tweak it again in regeditor...
can the rom developers include this tweak for the upcoming cook rom for xda mini so that the screen disalignment can be fix...
thanks
to HyperMalac:
so, the solution is to change the coordinates with yours?? hmmm ok i will try it.. i (and my friend here) have the same problem. i thought this is LCD problem and cannot be fixed unless u change the lcd (as 1 of the member said) thx~! i'll let you know~!
not working
i have to constantly align my screen and even putting in the coordinates..it still doesn't work. I will be sending it back to the repair centre sooon.
dear all,
I want to ask how to open the registry in the WM2003?
I've installed the Total Commander, but after that I still confused what to do next.
many thanks
Open TC and open the "folder" named: \\. this \\ folder contains the registry...
NEWS:
Finally I've took my Magician to the HTC Europe Service Center...Waiting, for solution....Will post the result
Cheers
hypermalac....
so the reconfiguration in registry do not solve the screen missalignment problem? Coz I've try, but it seems no result, only the frequent of screen become missalign is decrease...
any solution for this?
Well, the registry modding, only reduced the misaligns, for me too. I saw somewhere on this forum that this problem is hardware problem, but I don't think so. Someone said, that the touchscreen has a factory malfunction. Anyway I'd took it to the service, an as soon as I get it back, I will post, if it's solved the problem, or not.
Cheers
@HyperMalac:
well, when u get ur mini back from service centre, ofcourse it will be fixed, no more sreen disaligned, for sure..
now, the problem is, why this happend to many people (from different countries) ?? can you ask the service center while they keep your mini : what is wrong with xda2 mini lcd?? why this disaligment happend? how can we avoid this?? how to fix (without send back to factory) etc etc.. please ask, if possible, ofcoz... thx alot
FYI, this is not the only problem that many xda2mini from difference countries get. other problem is after take the battery out for only 5 secs, you will get HARD reset. the backup battery is not functioning~! happend to me~! then sent mine to factory, they fix it but strangely, they change the MOTHERBOARD~!
ah, i think someting is wrong with HTC.....

Well, when I get it back, I'll ask your questions, if it's possible, and I hope too that the service give some solution for us, to avoid this problem (screen misalignment), without taking our magician to service.
Battery problem:
Changed the motherboard???Do you mean the hardware buttons?
Well, my magician works fine expect the sreen, so I haven't got any batt problem. But I will ask it too.
Cheers
Hardware Issue
Pretty sure this IS a hardware issue. Happened on my MDA Compact and got progressively worse.
No amount of hard resets, software configuration and ROM upgrades fixed it.
Came back from HTC good as new.
I have heard that using screen protectors causes this as it is touching the screen all the time.
I no longer use a screen protector so I'll let you know next year if the problem has come back again!
Hello out there,
since WM6 is available for my Qtek 8310 I would like to update to WM6.
After a short look here in the board, I see a couple of threads "Release WM6 .... "...
My question now is; Which release I should take? In other words, which one is the "best" ?
Thanks in advance,
Kesa
You should consider these 2
Andot PEE or HTC Edition
Basically HTC Edition is based on Andot PEE with some HTC themes and stuffs only
please apologize my bad english
So the HTC Edition has more stuff ? this one ?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321408
If yes... there's written under "removed" "office mobile" and so on... but what if I want office mobile or for instance the windows wireless manager ?
office mobile is removed coz you can install it yourself via the cab file into the storage card, saving up space on your main memory, same applies to the remove stuffs
okey understood
Well... If I take the Andot PEE version, I can install by myself the apps I want? - and install the HTC Version's apps too ?
[GUIDE] Upgrading HTC Tornado to Windows Mobile 6
Karhoe's guide to convert a Tornado to WM6 can be found at :
http://karhoe.byethost33.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21
I used this wonderful guide to convert my T-Mobile SDA to WM6 last week and it worked like a champ. Everything went well. I had two minor hick-ups that I was able to resolve with research on this web site. As Karhoe pointed out the Office cab files are included in the "Extras" donwloaded and used at the end of the upgrade process. I'm very pleased with the WM6 upgrade.
Everything seemed to have gone well using andot's WM6 PEE, but after a few hours, my backlight on my phone starts behaving badly. I set the backlight to turn off after 30 seconds, but it will just basically turn itself off after about 5-6 seconds without any type of dimming before turning off.
If I go back to power management and set the backlight time to something else, that setting will stick for about a few hours, and back to the same backlight problems mentioned above.
Anyone else have this? I followed karhoe's tutorial exactly, and everything works well besides the backlight issue.
Thanks.

Hi
I can't hear ther caller when connecting to the Blue & Me on my car.
I can connect and call via my voice but when the caller answer I can't hear anything (He can hear my but I believe not clear)
I tried this with a NOKIA mobile and it is working fine sad.gif
Note:
Blue&Me™ is an innovative in-car system that allows you to use your
Bluetooth® mobile phone and to listen to your music while you drive.
Blue&Me™ can be controlled either by voice or by the buttons on the
steering wheel, which means that your attention is not diverted from
driving and the road.
Please help mellow.gif

I hate to sound like a smarta$$ here but if this is important to you, changing the ROM does not take very long to do and could maybe fix the problem. This would have been the FIRST thing I tried after all else failed. If it is that important, you have to decided which means more to you. The rom or the blue tooth? It might not fix the problem BUT like i said, it's not a time consuming task to change the rom and try it.

Install an official HTC ROM. Then disable power save in wifi settings. Turn wifi on and try scanning for networks.
Try changing Radio version as well. I recommend 1.65 or higher

The problem is that Kaiser uses 3G which uses lots of energy. In WM 6.5 there's option in Comm Manager to turn off 3G (I can't find anything similar in WM 6.1). The internet connection will be slower, but the battery performance will slightly increase.
help me guys, i cant run setup when i use D-pad.
I want to instal android to check wifi etc.
can i have Yours solution ;/
ive instaled android hero from sdcard. but wifi still not working, the same with bt, when on WM bt was working, dunno maybe wifi is hardware problem ;/
Have you checked the rear panel of the phone where the antenna is?
check the pins they could be bent of broken off
Just a thought
They'r looking good
