Hi all, these PDA gadgets is all new to me so I thought I would start with something quite cheap (in case I am too thick and cannot follow)..
So I got this XDA but i can't really find any use with it.. Most webpages i come across saying that its in-compatible and also the pre-loaded MSN messenger saying that it won;t work with that version( then why on earth is that pre-installed?) also the webmessenger again is not working... nor the ICQ... So.. what exactly can i do with it??
bit fustrating really..
Sorry if my questions have been covered but doing a search and seems that everything is too techy like different ROM and things that I do not seemto understand too well..
Thanks in advance..
ms have a update of messenger which is required
to be installed because the version of messenger in the rom
is OLD
re webbrowser.
Use a new browser, ou multie or tweak2k to change broswer's 'id' so it's seen as internet explorer for compatibility.
V
hmmmm.. ok ... cheers for the info.. now the next question is.. How and what do i need to update??
which Rom can help me to browse?? Also i guess there is no way out about the messenger then.,...??
thank you
as i said ms have an update you have to run to get messenger working
if you get a newer rom it may not be necessary though
can you tell me if that update is downloadable and where??
or what is the version called?
thank you so much
it's always the last place you look

Hi,
I must say I have been pretty impressed the way this forum has been run by you fellas. I get to learn a lot of things in these pages.
I have installed the new Windows Phone 6.5. Below is the link to it.
http://rapidshare.com/files/211585077/RUU.7z
All the credit goes to MietasSR who ported this ROM to the Tornado.
I think the ROM is quite stable and is safely usable. I really loved the Zune interface ( a.k.a Sliding Panel Interface ) and so I am glad now . It is still faster than any of the Standard ROMs I tried on my device but a bit slower than the excellent Kamikadze's RC7 WinMo 6.1
NOTE:There is no camera app in this. As it is unnecessary for me, I don't care. And for those who don't know how to unlock, just press the Home key for long until you get a cursor and then use it to unlock. You can return to the classic style of unlocking ( left soft key and 0 ) by going to Settings>Lock>Display and choosing the Windows Classic option.URL
anyOne tested it ?
This ROM is in this thread with experiences .
Ok , Downloaded ,
Installed Without problem on my Imate Sp5M .
Not as Good as 6.1 ,
Speed is not also Too Good , But if Use OmapClock then it become Good,
There are some settings that After install You should Do
like
Enable Classic Lock ,
In power Option Disbale auto Device off
Etc
and i install TCPMP and i have installed the smartphone version and it is installed as PPC version ,
mean i must enable the Cursor for using it , ( can be use with hot keys)
overall this release is Compromisable , Need Improvments
The Most i like , it was Its Theme , that have a Awesome look
also The signals come 0 after every few minutes then takes few seconds to go back to 100%
Improvements.

True. This needs improvement. The work was incomplete and the "chef" MietasSR clearly specified that. its working satisfactorily for most uses. I hope anyone else could continue the excellent work that he started. I am willing to learn and do it too, just need the packages so that I can cook a new ROM. I hope I can find the details through Google and anyways this forum is of great help too. I didn't observe the signals problem you referred to.
Guys i think that most of the users and me ofcource want to see a WM6.5 ROM for our beloved Tornado
But why you have opened a new thread?

I opened a new thread as I wanted other people to know that there is already a working 6.5 ROM for Tornado. The link to it was buried in a thread which had a discussion about porting 6.5 to Tornado and multiple requests for the same. Normally there is a new thread for a new ROM and wherein users can post queries, comments and suggestions.
Hi,
I do not have a kitchen for this rom anymore. Please do not ask for this.
Best regards from Poland,
MietasSR.
please help....
i have installed this rom at my qtek8310.
installed applications at my storage card, 1gb mini sd.
problem is, if i turn off the phone, turn it on, the application is changed to white windows icon and the application is not accessible anymore.
what went wrong?
how can i correct this.
please..... i love the ROM.
many thanks!

Try removing the storage card and putting back again. I too faced this problem then I figured out it was because of loose connections. Just make sure that the card sits properly in the depression and lock it in properly before putting the battery.
How to close spontaneously.

It is Professional.
This version is of an earlier build and misses on a few areas.
Look for MeitasSR's 23016 build 6.5 ROM in this forum.

Can any of you programming masters port the Exult engine to work on the HD2? I love Ultima7 and Part 2. They had it working on PocketPC Window Mobile 5. If any one can get this working e.g the right screen res and get the mouse in sync...it work make my year
They have all the source files on there site:
http://exult.sourceforge.net/index.php
Any help would be great
Cheers

would love it !!!
i dont like it. sorry m8 , i preffer FirstPersonShooters, like Warrock or Combat arms..
Ive changed the res so its running 800 by 480 which looks great. But i cant move with the right click I can double click but thats all....
You dont like U7 wow. I live in that game for years
http://exult.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ExultAndroid.apk
If anyone is still interested.
Is this a working version? Does this require a certian version of Android? I'm on 2.1 still and Exult just FC's immediately on startup.
I have the same problem. I installed the Exultandroid.apk from Exult's website, and it force closes immediately. I have a myTouch 3G Fender running 2.2.1.
I can't find anything on any forum that would constitute "troubleshooting" if anyone could help me figure out how to fix this, that would be much appreciated.
Exult Android ForceClose FIX!!!
This is the forum for the official Android releases. The first post has an install guide. That should help anyone having an issue with this App.
(Note!!! You must have a copy of Ultima7 Blackgate, just like the original Exult)

Hi guys
I really like this forum so I just had to register!
I got a Vodafone 845 with Android 2.1 I'm wondering if this phone can handle the new 2.2 Froyo version and if so is there a rom for this phone, anyone heard about it?
I see alot of upgrading and roms and tweaks but none for this phone
So I just had to ask
Thx for any possible reply or information or even tips to improve my experience with my phone and also on this forum!
Hello,
I am thinking this is a fresh phone, so we need give some time for the gurus
You can find cooked rom for this phone. You know: google is our friend ;-)

I read somewhere on a blog that Vodafone 845 aka Huawei Joy will have a Android v2.2 (froyo) update, but it's still in the making.
I'll say this, if they don't do it, that would be a clear mistake on Vodafone's behalf. Because, although V845 is a ****ty product (in marketing standards), it's also the flagship of Vodafone's "brand" right now. And that says a lot of a multinational company like Vodafone...
Hi there,
I searched the web for like an hour now and was not able to find any information about the 845's GPS ... Can you please share any information about it? Which chip is it? Trying to find out if it has a better chip than the iPhone 3G!
Thanx,
Dennis

Wallpaper Issues
Hey guys,
I'm having the same problem with my Joy 845. Everytime I set a wallpaper and go back to the home screen it gets englarged and blurred, which really annoys me! :/
So IF anyone out there could help me with this issue it would be awesome!
Thanks
Try "Wallpaper Set and Save" app from Android Market, that should sort it:

Hi there
I've got this toy as well, but after a while something wrong happens. When it starts, is loading very slow and when I have to confirm touching touch screen ... nothing happens... or is like touch screen isn't calibrated . So my Vodafone 845 remains on that screen for ever. I can use "Emergency dial" and "Change Language" with the keys under the touch screen. Tried to reset it with restarting and pressing "volume up" key, reset was successful but when it restarted got the same problem. Any solutions?

This thread is about the "star one X2" or X2 mtk6575 phone.
It's one of the cheapest android 4.0 Chinese phone with mtk6575
As there is no topic about this phone I will start one !
1) The phone
star one X2 mtk6575 review
System
OS Android 4.0.3
CPU MTK6575
ROM 4GB
RAM 512MB
Screen
Display Size 4.0Inch
Type Capacitive touch screen
Resolution 800 x 480 pixels
Screen Color 260K Colors
It's a pretty good phone for the price (around 150 Usd). Battery last quite long, it's fluid.
I bought mine on antelife http://www.antelife.com/free-shipping-newest-x2-mtk6575-4-0-inch-screen-800-480-android-smartphone-with-os-android-4-0.html
Great website, with great customer service !
If you want any info, just ask
2) Usb drivers
I tried some drivers for mtk6575 but didn't work so I installed wandoujia
it is a Chinese program that almost recognize every Chinese phone and install drivers for it !
As I do not have 10 posts on the forum I cannot share the link but google it.
I uninstalled it after because I do not understand chinese, but it seems to be a great program, with which you can install lots of app (chinese app) that are not on the market.
3) Root
The easiest way to do it is with superoneclick !
It didn't work for me (stuck at step 7) so i used another tool that I found on these forum for the zopo 100
i had to restard my computer several time and launch again and again but it finally worked
Hope this thread can help some people
Hope customs ROM will arrive !
4) Stock firmware !
thanks to antelife.com customer service here is a link with stock IMG and some tools !!

Star B79
Here it is:
http://www.chinaphonereview.com/star-b79
I have one! I really liked, but asked to waranty switch because the GPS was not working well ... had an error 5-200 m. : (Sometimes was ok, sometimes was 200m of the place where i was ...
Someone with the same problem?
Any ideas?!
Thanks
it's not the same model in fact,
not the same screen and not the same camera
One the X2 i do not have any pb of gps
Is there any topic about Star B79
no, but b79, x310e and X2 are similar phones. So we can group them in the same topic or just create another one, as you wish.
It it is for your gps pb here is what I have :
- geolocalisation and maps work well and fast with data (3g or wifi)
- if I turn off data if have no geolocalisation but I can load the map (even with the gps off so I don't really understand)
Greaves,
Regarding 2) USB Drivers:
There's now an English-language version of Wandoujia. It's called SnapPea and is available for free at SnapPea.com
Would love to hear your feedback--I know that's been a pain point for users with Chinese Android phones!

Greaves Hello, nice to meet you!
Today I purchased this product should reach me next week!
In the meantime, I found your comments and hope you continue to add news to your phone!
Have you found any problem? Or does it? For me it is important that the GPS works perfectly, you've got to try it with some browser? I noticed you added a link where there is the possibility to update the rom already, tell me what improvements to make? Have you already tested? Aspect of your news

i've just received this great phone.
I'm satisfied with the performance, screen and the touch pad.
I just wonder is there any official firmware/custom rom available yet?
If i'm not asking too much it will be great if there is a repartition fix also.
hello,
I have no pb with the phone except that the gps needs my 3g to be on to work (I use google maps).
The link is not for an update rom but for the rom that is already on your phone. It should help to do custom rom but as I don't know how to do it I don't know if there will be any

This means that the GPS does not work offline? It means that if you install a browser such as sygict Mobile with integrated maps, does not work? If so is a big problem!

I got my Star One X2 last week, have exactly the same problem. I put Route66 (Navigaiton + maps) from andoid market its an offline navigator I just found. I put the same software on a Samsung Galaxy s2. Put both devices on the dashboard on the highway. Turned off WiFi and Data. It seemed equal for a while both were navigating the same way, but as soon as I passed a small village, the X2 would get out of track and show me in the woods or off-roads, while I was driving 130km/h, but the S2 continued just fine. It got back on track after the village was gone. Inside the town, it would jumb to different roads. So there has to be a problem with manucaturing. I just sent an request to the eBay seller asking for repair.....
Did you get any feedback on yours?

See my comment below, it works offline, but there is a precision problem.
I think its a hardware problem... i got a new unit and the problem is the same!
The solution is keep the internet connection off (gprs, 3G, wifi) and it works ok. The problem my apear again when you receive o phone call... the solution is turn The gps connection off and on again...
This is my Expirience... any ideas or solutions?

Thank you, my x2 has problems with the GPS, the wrong position 2-500 m.
In addition, each time using the GPS, after work with difficulty, almost blocked for 5 minutes. I'm going to contact the vendor for help, but if you could solve with a cooked rom and instructions for assembly, it would be great! (sorry I'm a little more than a rookie)
