HTC - where is GpsSetup2 ?? - General Questions and Answers

Hi all,
good to be a part of this great forum!
i recently bought an HTC Wildfire S loaded with android v2.3 (gingerbread). my only issue here is that i am unable to start the GpsSetup2 app which allows one to configure the gps settings in much detail as is the case with Samsung galaxy series.
also i have noticed that gpssetup2 does not work on any htc android phone which i came across.
can someone pls help me find out whats happening here? is there some other code for the HTCs or is it deliberately blocked by htc guys just to prevent fiddling...
ps: i couldnt even find it using the ANYCUT app.
kindly reply ASAP.
Thanks

bump...anyone?

HTC Touch HD remove Telstra

Hi,
I just purchased a new HTC Touch HD phone T8285.
I have realised that it has come pre-loaded with a lot of Telstra configuration. I am not a Telstra customer and I would like to start with a clean phone in the factory shipped state.
I am in Australia and currently have a contract through Virgin (Optus)
Can anyone advise how I can reset the phone configuration so that all reference to Telstra is removed and that the standard factory settings are in place for Australia.
Any help is appreciated

Hi, welcome to XDA! You would need to flash a chef's cooked rom (must have HardSpl 1st). Check out the Blackstone section of this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=453
Also, read the Sticky's!
How do I determine which one of these posts is relevant to my HTC Touch HD...?
When I search for this there are a lot of listings.....can you point me to one that might be specific for my device and location
Apologies as I am new at this....
Thanks
Scott

Scott, just click the http link in my above post and then do your search
Thanks for that I can see those instructions and will attempt to follow them...
A further question should I attempt to first use the following ROM upgrade link from HTC to see if it resolves my problem. Rather then using the previous reset instructions...
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=533
Or will this simple return me to the current state with the Telstra settings in place ?
Thanks

Hi,
Before I work use the post above to re-install the ROM on my HTC Touch HD....could I confirm the following...
- will the re-install of this mean that I will not be able to take updates to the ROM from HTC in the future
- will this process work for me as an Australia mobile phone user ?
- does the install include all the Windows Mobile operating system on the phone ready to use
Once again thanks for you help......I am new to this and want to make sure that I don't stuff the phone that have
Thanks

- You can make any update in the future, cooked ROM´s from XDA are much better than any "official" version
- It should work
- Yes
Social Web - Remove Telstra Wap Redirections ?
HI,
Dont know if anyone can help ... I have been searching the forums, but cant find this anywhere, so apologies if it is answered somewhere else.
I have a new HD2 with Telstra. I have managed to remove the locked quicklinks on the home page, and completed a few other incredible tweaks, but I just cannot seems to get the Social Web links to work when connected to WiFi - they will work when connected via Next G.
On WiFi, when I click on the Facebook icon for example, I get redirected to waprd.telstra.com/redirect?target=facebook-g ... and then nothing happens for about a minute. Just a white screen until I get a message saying "Could not connect to the remote server" . Yet, when I am connected via Next G I connect to Facebook immediately.
I have tried to find the xml code to change the URl, but I cannot find it anywhere.
Is anyone else having this problem, and if they did, was there a solution? Overall I am really happy with the phone (now that I seem to have spent about 3 days tweaking it!) and I would really like to get this fixed.
Thanks so much in advance.

hi sarah,
just wondering how did u get rid of the quicklinks off the the home screen, im not happy how they can not provide a phone in its original state!!any other important tweaks i should do when i purchase the phone??
waprd.telstra
I'm having the same issues any waprd.telstra sites will not work in a wifi enviroment. While I'm asking does anyone know hoe to changes the icons in the telstra "news and sport" or "social web" screens" ?
Hey Magic3091
Unfortunately most of those items are hard wired into the ROM. And the ROM is written to Telstra's specs. Hence the branding and all the BS
I suggest you try a new ROM to remove all of these. You'll have to do some reading to find out which is best for you.
I only just got my HD, and having seen how much Telstra stuff is there I WILL be ROMing it. I just need to figure out which one. If I rememder I will post which I choose.
Currently the MIRI rom looks like the best - new WinMob6.5 and Touch flo.

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!

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?

[Q] Unistalling Apps From Phone NOT Marketplace

Hi guys, I'm hoping one of you can help me before I go mad. I am new to Android (I'm running the HTC Desire Android build on my HTC HD2) and I remember selecting an option (can't remember if it was in an application or the phone settings) that said Remove Application from Marketplace when unistalled (or words to that effect). Anyway, I buggered if I can find it again because I want to leave these apps in MyApps list. Can someone tell me where I can get to this setting
Many thanks in advance for any help guys

[Q] Bell TV & Radio - Problem connecting to service

Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S running Criskelo v75 Rom. I recently ordered Bell's mobile variety package through the Bell self serve app. I noticed then that my Rom didn't have the stock TV & Radio app. After doing some digging I finally found the apk, but any time I try to use it, I'm thrown an error reporting a problem connecting to the service, reinstalled many times. When I try to change the account info, I'm thrown an error saying there was a problem logging in using the credentials provided. I can log in with the exact same credentials on the website.
Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it? Or am I doing something wrong? Any help is appreciated!

[help] Video call on Cha Cha

Dear All
I have just gotten the HTC Cha Cha, I need to make a video call to another device such as Nokia through 3G net work using dial pad, but it do not allow me to do that.
I think HTC has blocked this function on Cha Cha, it need some mod or APP to active again this function. So that Can someone help me to active this function, please? I really need it because I must to call to my children every 2 days. I think not only me but also many Cha Cha user need that.
Thanks alot and best regard
Orbite
P/s: Dear Admin, if have any theart about this question, please sent me to there; or this post is wrong topic, please sent me there. Thanks
you have to post this question in 'Chacha general'
sorry left out some info. chacha does not come with stock video calling function. it can be done thru 3rd party apps for now.
Quote from some others forum.
chacha has a front camera (can be used while using the camera application) but unable to make video calls checked with HTC they advised that the feature to use the camera for video calls is not yet enabled for that we need to take the help of additional software's.

Thread moved to proper forum.
Hi all
I have contacted with HTC help desk, they told to me that: many people asked them about that function, and they are thinking to open it.
Otherwise they also said that this function will be open with some software adjustment. Sothat could anyone adjust that? My thinking very simply: copy the app which support to make video-call from samsung or LG and add to Cha Cha...
All Master of Androi system, Please help to enable this function, I really need to used.
Thanks
