Old version of songbird - General Topics

okay i know songbird is discontinued and barely anyone uses it, but I was trying to find an old version of it, because of it's widgets. So after using web archive and google search for almost an hour, I finally stumbled upon an old version. But when I opened it, It said oh no! sad panda! and it auto closed....I tried making a modified apk and patching it, none worked to remove that message....so I decided to consult with the elders of the amazing androids......so, what's your opinion? Can you maybe make a crack where I can use it without that sad panda crap? Thanks,
Thomas Hancock.
P.S.

i have it, but the problem is extracted from faria kitchen, which have two folders containing: - camera, - streaming video, - x-button, sap settings, and - mms
if you have long time to seprate i will attach
If you can find an old version of the consolidated kitchen (like around version 3.2) it had that version of MMS all nice and seperated. It was around 3.4 or 3.5 where it changed to the new 4.0 one (I have the 3.4 OEM package, but don't remember if it had changed then or not).
[Edit] I just checked and the 3.4 version was the Arcsoft MMS 4.0 version... Like Its Right stated, I have the one from Faria's kitchen, but its a mess. Mattk_r took the time to pull it apart in the early releases of the consolidated kitchen thread.
Yeah, thats what I saw too, but it appears that there are alot of extra files, what I would love to find is an os with it build in and use some sort of application to strip it out. you know, do all the hard work for me. lol

Software to monitor changes during install

Hi everyone,
I have spent the past few days trying to remember the name of a program I used a long time (and many ROMs) ago that would log all the changes made to a phone while the program was running.
This software was good for keeping an eye on registry changes made during installs and post-install customization of software.
Does anyone know what the name of the software is and/or a link to the CAB?
I have tried my best to look through my software folders, search the forums, and google and still no dice so now I'm turning to you all.
Thanks in advance!

You can try SKTracker. You should be able to Google it. Not free but it works great for finding changes.
Thanks for your help! I'll give that one a shot this weekend if I can't get any help finding the free one. I'm just really not wanting to spend more money on this phone than I already have especially when the one whose name I can't remember did exactly what I needed and was free.
But, like I said, thanks for giving me (and anyone else interested in the same subject) options.

Swype from 2.07 rom required

HI can anyone tell me where to get new skype from 2.07 rom ???
thanks in advance.
You won't find anyone with it here. The best solution is to simply flash to a ROM that has it.
I have so much data on phone can't backup all of it so dont wana change rom for time being........
Im not sure where to grab the version of swype that has been extracted from the 2.07 rom... i am trying to find it myself!
The swype cab created from the version ripped from the Samsung Omnia 2 is all over the web though... google should bring up a couple of places to download it from.
Does anyone know of any differences between the two versions?

You will have to search in the underground... Extracting the software and offering it as a cab is clearly not wanted by the creators and owners of the software. Offering links to warez is completely against xda rules.
The difference between the 2 might be some more language support, and that the HD2 version was made for HD2, as simple as that. I think it still might be an option to flash a ROM which carries it on board - or, at least, as long as this is tolerated.
Maybe in the close future, HTC will bring another ROM update which offers this great piece of software. Or, as stated otherwise, Swype might decide to make a retail offer at some time. If they do at a decent price, I believe they could do great business - as seen with other products, at unreasonably high prices, you won´t sell big, but at fair pricing, you can succeed.
I cannot find the new version anywhere!
If anyone has a link or would like to email it to me that would be very much appreciated!!

I had the same thing, only installed yesterday so didn't do much checking of the phone. Quite a few problem were caused by the T-Mobile version . Data connection is screwed and all email passwords needed to be reset and my Wifi password are also gone lol. Did some reading online as well and quite a few other people have experienced the same problems, some have even had to HARD RESET to get their phones working correctly, fortunetly for me just uninstalling the CAB and giving the phone a few minutes resolved my Data connection issues , will put back on the Omnia version and leave it at that for the time being.
So I advice using the newest version of Swype with EXTREME caution!!!!
I tried it after much hesitation... Had to do a new setup for all email accounts, data connection and wifi connection. But it seems to be fine now, I'll see in a few days if it stays like that.
I'm using SWYPE WVGA 3.9.10.10.5032 on my HD2 without any problems.

Had the same, but all I had to do was re-enter the passwords (and mail servers for gmail) and re-run the connection setup wizard. Now I'm fine and dandy and the software is nothing short of awesome... Supports Italian, German, French, English and Spanish; I tested all languages and it works fine
I'd say it is a crucial addition to the HD2, as I use it every day, and it makes my text input much less of a chore. It is particularly useful because of its multi-language support. I've never had any problems like those described, thankfully.
have you guys done any soft resets since the initial reset after installation? I also found the keyboard became slow to start after I played with the setting. the omnia 2 version is working better for me and with the htc skin looks awesome.

I can't believe no one else posted this...
If you overwrite the ModelID with the file provided, you are effectively telling your phone that you are now....a...tmobile hd2.
The swype keyboard has protection in it...only a tmobile hd2 will work with it.
hence why you need the modelid
now here is the kicker...
Say sprint - you run sprint tv. get an error. wanna know why? sprint asks "what phone" and your phone replies "tmobilehd2.
Same thing with prl updates...
I think you get the point...
when you overwrite the modelid, all exchange accounts - gone (sorta). Your 4 digit pin become a lockout - no pin will unlock it.
in short, bad things happen.
And this is why you always provision your phone before you set it up. part of provisioning is setting the modelid...
which is why people on mighty that forgot to provision before seting up exchange need that fix e-mails cab...
any questions?

@leepriestenator, if I don't use any provider software, I can install swype without any problem right ?
leepriestenator is correct. Thanks. As our phones are all unlock where we are, the problem is just resetting the mobile provider. It is working fine on my phone, though the phone identity is now T-mobile_Leo.
Having said that, it is a much improved version over the one in Samsung.

How to android tmobile htc hd2

Ok i may be wrong for posting this thread but i have searched for 3 days to find a app to android my htc hd2 by tmobile. I'm no expert but i've tried every site i could to find a app. That being said i'm looking to add tikl to chirp and whatever else the android app will allow me. If there are any "good" suggestions please let me know.
Next i have loudtalks which i would love to remove from the phone all together, don't ask cause i wish i didn't install. Neither of my friends have the app which makes it dumb for me to even get so please guide me????????
Look on HD2 LEO area
I found a link that had a combo that flashed Chukky on the winmo side and installed Froyo2.2 on the sd It works without errors. There is one thing that is quirky about it you have to load every time you turn on the phone into winmo then there is a android icon and you restart to android. Otherwise, when it goes into sleep mode the phone won't wake up. The other thing I found was that the flash can get corrupted if you run the battery dead. FYI. I am trying to remember exactly how I found the flash.. I think I got directed to a link that was Chukkys actual site and then from there I found the link that provided the Android. hope that helps...

[Q] Need a chat app, that is NOT palringo

Palringo straight up sucks. as of right now it has been "Logging in" for 3 hours, tried rebooting phone, checked connection etc etc.. Of course there is no visual cue that you have a message,(blinking LED) or when you are disconnected.
it sucks, i hate it, want something, anything else.
tried to get ebuddy, cant, says its not authorized or something to that effect..
is there ANY program out there (other than junkringo) that works on this phone? without having to do any mods BS to get it to work?
I take it you're not looking for MSN then?
something that DOES NOT use sms to send and recieve yahoo chat messages.
How about this. Not the most obvious thing in the world I suppose, but I thought of it...

Wow, thanks for the smartass answer an all..
but have you even tried to install it on an HD2?
hmm?
does your say " 'ymsgr-ppc' is not a valid pocket PC application"
maybe i should google it.
mmm... yea, well it says its for winmo5.. so I googled the HD2 and found it with google, it uses winmo6.5 and then googled again and could not find where it said that app supports winmo6.5.... but I did find where it said it does not support 6.1 but maybe it skipped 6.1 because it wasnt cool, or didnt use google enough... hmm
maybe i should google some more.
too bad i cant get it to work too, what with a rockin rating of 2/10 i think you managed to google up the one chat app that might suck worse than palringo..
At least I tried, which is more than you could be bothered doing.
Couple of options
BeeJive for WM 6.5 works, but is no longer being supported. It's in permanent beta and every once in a while their servers go down for a few days.
You can get the ebuddy java app to work. You need to install Mighty's Photon jBlend java app on your HD2, then you can get java apps to install fine. I don't have a link handy but you can find it on XDA.
Try BeeJive first, if it's working, it's really good.
