Sorry for the "1 Post Wonder" thread, but I have an issue with my HTC Trophy 7 running Mango.
I updated using the "plug pull" method, and pretty much everything works as I expected, except I don't have turn by turn voice navigation.
I still get the old turn by turn interface, but the voice navigation option is missing from the settings panel.
Has anyone else encountered this and is there anything I can do to fix it?
Thanks in advance..
P.s. I searched the forums for this issue, but didn't see any other helpful threads, so if I missed it, sorry >.>
EDIT:: Just read the pinned thread at the top about device specific queries.. If a mod could move this thread to the Q&A section, that would be much appreciated.
What version of Mango are you running? Make sure you updated to version 7720.68. You might have to perform the disconnect trick again.

Thanks for the reply albertleao,
I am running 7.10.7720.68 - So that would appear to be in order >.<
I have been using text to speed for messages and such, so all of those features are working
Having read around some more, I also tried changing my country in Hotmail to UK, tried changing all my phone settings to English (UK) etc, still no joy :\
Is there anything else I can try, or does my phone just not have it?
I guess the next question is, are there any official help contacts I can use.. I.e. HTC?
Bump!
Anyone got any information on this issue >.<
Hi
flash a unlocked rom an install the patched Navigon
you can find it in this forum.
There is also a way to use it with Australian maps.
And you will have a good offline Navi with all functions you need
I hoped this post helped

Hi folks,
Does anyone have information RE: the release date for WinMo 6.1 for the HTC s640? The Touch got its update a few weeks back, can we expect the same?
Telus is promising an update for RevA capability, I assume this will come with 6.1.
Im interested to know as well, been waiting.. and waiting... and waiting and getting very tired. When will we enjoy the upgrage?
Pretty stupid we haven't seen an update for the S640 yet! Telus doesn't even have any 6.1 Smartphone Standard devices... something that I find awefully wierd considering their promotion of WM devices and smartphone in general. This is seriously stupid. Even the old crusty S620 has the WM6.1 upgrade kicking around for it!
ya, new update came out.
and it's a wm6 update.
lol
nice telus.
I just installed the update on my phone. GPS still doesn't work for me; a Telus rep told me it would be included in this update.
No WM6.1 and no GPS. I am very disappointed by this.
quick update... I was able to get GPS working on my s640 using the instructions/apps found in this post: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36639
When using the GetSPC app on your phone, enter your HEX ESN in the top input box, push the left key twice until you don't see a cursor, then click the middle button. There is an "invisible" go button that the s640 doesn't display in this app... it should generate your SPC in the lower box.
I'm able to use both Gmaps and Live Maps w/ GPS now.
Enjoy!
I can verify Tatusmi success with his GPS, I updated my s640 via HTC's website, and followed along the instructions from the link he provided and the SPC program (after figuring it out it was case sensitive).
Good work Tatusmi, a feature that should have always been active now works.
I got the above to work )for a telus s640(. (although I lost everything on my phone because my activesync was messed).
But the HTC update to 3.0 worked great. The GPS enabled instructions worked flawlessly. I got google maps to find 10+ gps signals and was able to find my location.
but, I can't get TOMTOM to work. Won't find the internal GPS
NAV4all just sucks.
I am working on Garmin mobile XT to try it out - but I keep getting stuck with it triing to find a bluetooth unit. And it doesn't give the option to choose internal or com port or nothing.
any ideas?
nevermind, I got garmin to work.
Just couldn't get it to work automatically with some card id or something.
had to open garmin. go to settings -> about -> and the cardid is listed there.
once that is good, everything shows up properly.
I can write WM6.1 rom for s640. My ICQ - 731889 - write to me.
strik3r, I don't use ICQ anymore... can't you post here or use PMs?
Glad I could help you guys with the GPS!
I dont know about anyone else , But id be more excited to see Android on this device then 6.1 .... dont get me wrong winmo is a good plat. But Android would be killer ..
Ive been doing a little research .. and the Htc Vogue has a android version running and you can fallow the few steps to get it running with haret . well kinda .
Anyway just curious to know if anyone else has had any luck with linux on this device or anyone willing to help getting linux running on this device .

I've received confirmation from telus that they're not going to upgrade the Iris's rom. apparently there were compatibility issues, but i don't buy it.
I think someone should do this themselves, much akin to what seems to have been done in the other forums to other phones aka the 620. I'd do it but I really have no idea where to start.

I also received confirmation from Telus that this phone would never see WinMo 6.1, nor would any of their other existing WinMo Standard devices.
The line they gave you about compatibility is bull though, I called HTC about it and they said there is absolutely no reason why this phone can't run 6.1, it has more than the minimum required hardware.
I'd love to see a cooked version of 6.1 for the phone, but I also don't know where to start. I also don't use ICQ anymore so I can't seek out striker's help. Andrioid would be neat too, I don't have any experience with it... but anything is better than tired ole WinMo 6.
Well what a pissoff. 6.1s so nice. Makes me angry I didn't get a touch
IT WORKS on TELUS S640 with GOOGLE MAPS!!!
Thanks for all the information , I could not locate the driver that was listed in c:\windows\system32\drivers so I found drivers that work. Awsome, thanks everyone. Just a side note to take the phone out of diagnostic mode just ##3424 then hit "send" (same as to put into diag mode).
Confirmation on S640 GPS
i just want to confirm, so the s640 tweak for the gps, worked for telus s640.
i just need to confirm that once this is done, i would be able to use google maps to get my location using the internal gps of the phone or how ?
cause right now i am using a bluetooth gps to get navigation on my winmo. with out having to do anything to the Registrer or any other tweaks.
can you please confirm

I am wondering if you could help me in getting garmin to work on my S640, as i too am having problems with TOMTOM and GARMIN ?
do you have the REVA update for your phone?
and what have you done so far to get gps to work?
I haven't had my hd2 for too long so im still on stock rom if that helps any. i recently deleted ny mobi tv app by mistake. i then re downloaded it from this very forum. it installed, k restarted my phone and all was well. when i open the app i can view a channel if i hurry or i get an update message. there's no other option but to update or exit. the problem is, overtime i update and restart my phone and go to the app,it like automatically disables my 3g and says that i should enable ny connection in order to start the initial setup. any way to get it to stop asking for the update? or to stop the app from disabling my 3g? thanks for reading help would be appreciated. *by the way, sorry for the lack of some spaces. i just typed this on my hd2. i think the space bar should be more sensitive than the other keys
Moved as not software release.
oh ok. i thought that an app would be a software release. im not understanding all of this. but why move it and not offer any help.
Hi!
I downloaded the new Windows Live Messenger and it works like a charm. The problem is every 5-10 minutes it tells me my connection is lost and it´s trying to reconnect, however the connection had never been lost and it never reconnects. Also the interface becomes glitchy, the soft buttons dissapear, so instead of having a frame around close(when you press the top bar) you only have the word close and touch x taskmanager doesn't have any X's anymore to close applications, only a soft reset fixxes this. Palringo doesn't give me this glitch but I don't like the user interface that much.
Any help?
Thanks!
happens here too its annoying

I hope there will be a fix soon because I really like the UI, it's great to work with.
msn has been suffereing this issue for MONTHS!!!!!
You're not the only one. I'm on Telus Mobility with the same issue, funny thing is... It actually happens on the diamond and touch pro now on the STOCK ROM!
So it's clearly an issue with the MSN service itself.
They better fix it because i miss it dearly!

Have you guys looked in the Marketplace and downloaded the latest version?
I recall a post or two previously that were solved by the new one.

I have the latest version, installed it yesterday and the problem is there.
I created a a post in the microsoft forums and it seems updating the radio fixes it but ive just given up and waiting for the nect rom update with the added radio.
Ill dig out my post later.
Radio fix? but I never use the radio application so how is this the cause of the problem?
Bump...........
Any help? How about that microsoft post? Can't find it on the microsoft forums.
Same probs here for already 3 months or so, my Touch Pro also have this problem!
Wtf are they doin at MS ;/
All mine have the same problem.
If I'm not mistaken I've read somewhere that flashing to a new Radio Rom would fix the problem. I'll try this out and let you know how it works out.

is it working? i have also problems with msn
Nth to do with flashing New Radio Rom
This "disconnect" problem has been happening a long long time since i had Dopod D810, Diamond2, and now HD, and the issue never gets away! I thought was the problem with network privoders over my place(HK), it seems actually not as what i thought...i see all of you here got the same issue...so MS what the fxxk, i am considering of iphone...it seems good in some way...hehe..
thanks
MS is sleeping, its a flaw well known even by Wifi will still get lost connection or updating status. It's so damn irritating every now & then need to flip through the chat windows just to refresh the connections. Unlike Android MSN it realy does auto-reconnect upon lost connection or trying to send message until the other user receives it.
Hi all.
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post, but this thread is regarding bugs on custom ROMs, so here I am.
A while back I switched from CM7 to WajkIUI, and I really have enjoyed this ROM since trying it. Recently however, I've noticed a couple of issues regarding MIUI/WajkIUI and Tasker. I've mentioned my problems in the relevant ROM thread here, and also on MIUIandroid.com, but nobody seems able/willing to help.
I have profiles configured within Tasker that will switch my phone to mute (Silent Mode) when I'm at work (based on WIFI near attribute, which is working fine). WajkIUI ROMs subsequent to 1.9.2 are unable to switch this, or indeed make any changes to volume.
I also have a profile that will switch on Bluetooth when I get an incoming call (using the Incoming Call option in Tasker). I've no idea when this stopped working, I'm on 1.9.2 at the moment, and it doesn't work here. I've tested the profile activates, and it does - but it doesn't switch on Bluetooth.
Finally, my third bug relates to the above, but not Tasker. If I switch Bluetooth on manually and pair with my headset - I can't get my headset to answer the call or to ring the last number (two things it has always done before).
Is there ANYONE who can help fix these? Are these issues solely on MIUI based ROMs, or does CM7 also have this issue - as I'm seriously considering switching back.
Thanks.
250+ views and not one response? Boy do I feel lonely now.
So, seeing as how nobody can offer any help on my actual problems - can someone give me a clue to how I go about decompiling a ROM to check the code out myself please?

Try to update to 1.9.23
Will that work? I've tried all of them up to that, but every time had to downgrade due to the problems. I got fed up of installing a ROM only to have to uninstall it five minutes later.

I think it's a bug in MIUI itself. If you check the app on market, there's a lot on Market who says so.
that's what I thought - I've an ignored thread in the bug forum on miuiandroid, hence my last question about decompiling the ROM so I can investigate myself.
My HD7 is not identifying any WIFI network and ICS shows "Internet Sharing isn't currently available"
This problem is there with wp7.8 only, its not there in previous versions...
Please help me! :crying:
If doing a hard reset doesn't fix that, then reflash the rom...
what rom are you using?
I've tried all 7.8 ROMS..
Not even a single 7.8 ROM fixes this problem..
In Earlier versions, WIFI and ICS are working properly..
Only in 7.8 ROMS, its not working
Sorry but...
That's B.S.
I'm using Dynamics V2.0 and I used ICS, and no problem with it, the same with Deepshining ROMs, they work.
Remember that the ICS option uses password security unless you don't want that.

I realise that language may be totally acceptable where you come from but to many, telling them that they are speaking "BS" might come across as being quite offensive.
there is clearly a problem otherwise the OP wouldn't have posted the question, So its not "BS" but the answer may be simple or even a misunderstanding, talk it through with them, perhaps you may provide an answer, perhaps its a device specific problem.
Just a wee word of advice, that's all!
happy new year my friends!

Dear Friends,
I'm still having this issue.. Please help me!!
I had a similar problem on my Nokia Lumia 710 after flashing a custom ROM (I don't remember which, maybe Rataplan?) but I solved it by downloading the Nokia Network Setup app from the Marketplace, which automatically setup my APN for data. I think HTC has a similar one called HTC Connection Manager, so I would try that. Hope that helps!

Dear phantomsniper,
Thanks for reply. But you are talking about Data connection. But my problem is with the WIFI and Internet sharing. My data connection is working fine. Please let me know if you have any workaround for this issue.
Regards,
Karty
That's the strange thing actually. My data connection on the phone worked fine, but the internet connection sharing didn't. After running the Network Setup app, both worked perfectly. I don't know why, but my assumption is that Windows Phones have two sets of APNs. One for regular data and one for internet sharing.
In my case, I think the ROM had the AT&T APN for regular data, but not the one for internet sharing, so the Nokia app fixed that. I've never owned an HTC windows phone, so I can't comment on how they may work. I guess it's worth a try though. I hope this helps, and good luck!
did anyone find a fix for this issue?
idk, I've updated to 7.8 (8862) and used it for more than 1 year, no WiFi or Bluetooth issues
while most users had this problem after they've updated to 7.8 take a look at this discussion with Microsoft Support
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...e/a15a3040-72e9-447f-8aaf-f1326bbf6b4a?page=6
I tried to flash an old stock rom, it worked.! but only for few hours :/
I tried to flash custom 7.8 roms nor NWA or Deepshining fixed it
well I've noticed that if you repeatedly do a hard reset for many times it works! but only for few minutes,, I'm not sure but it seems that WiFi fails again right after phone been locked or goes to standby mode.
pleeeeease, if someone have found a fix for this, or can do a workaround to fix this issue, please share it with us.
