was iphone now Diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hello I am new to this forum as well as windows mobile. I have an original iPhone (not 3G) and while I do believe that as far as function goes it works very well. I saw the diamond at best buy and liked it right away. The smaller size and design got me. SO I now have a few questions:
1. I see an H and very few times its a G but thats only for like a few seconds then it becomes an H again. Why doesn't it say 3G?
2. How do I get flash?
3. MY googles map does not find my locaction.
4. How can I add photos from my computer?
5. what about apps? is there a way and place to add to them.
6. When I am going to return a text message it does not bring up the last text until I close keyboard and re-open it.
7. It will not connect to check my gmail.
I am a noobie at this thing but so far I love it.
Thanks,
KB

HSDPA is much faster than normal 3G so be happy you've got HSDPA coverage!!! I live in an area with mostly crappy edge [E] coverage myself... I have to go to the city to have fast 3G speeds...

H is short for HSDPA which is actually faster than standard 3G:

You really need to learn how to use a search engine dude, it takes about two second to Google for "gmail windows mobile" to get your answer:
https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78886

no offence meant to anyone, but i just laughed.
this kinda sums up the whole iPhone/Mac versus WM/PC stereotype thing in one ironic thread.
A happy-go-lucky Apple user expecting everything to be super easy and not having to read the manual because everything just works, and the tired old Windows veterans explaining that you have to think and work harder to get things to run smoothly.
(and that's the polite version of both )
You'll be happy with your Diamond (once you get it sussed!), I think it's a great phone (mostly). You should find almost everything you need to know on these forums, but you will have to search. a bit of effort pays off

You were aware that you need to select go to my location from the menu in google maps? Go over to gmail home page, not gmail itself, you will see a link with specific instructions on setting up an IMAP conection on windows mobile. Follow the instructions exactly and it will work. You dont show 3g because your not connected to it, your connected to hspda which is faster so be glad you got the coverage. Install activesync and allow your phone to finish syncing. Then select explore and mobile device in the window that pops up. Move your photos over to whatever location you want. You will move apps over to the phone in the same manner. I would suggest you create a folder on your internal storage, call it apps or whatever you want and move them there. You can then browse to them on your phone and install. There are a few programs such as.net framework that you execute on your computer with the phone connected via activesync but these are the exception rather than the rule. Most programs will come as a cab and will be executed on the phone. It pays to read up on stuff before you go hog wild or you will be asking how to do a hard reset... I just joined the WM party 3 weeks ago so I understand it can be a little overwhelming but your post is practically begging to get slammed by the do a search queens. If a pathetic old man like me can get most of this figured out anyone can.

Completed ROM upgrades, now ?s

Okay. I completed the following steps on my new Cingular 8125
1. Used Loki .2b to do CID and unlock - Don;t have another SIM to test but seemed to work
2. INstalled Cingular_RUU_Wizard_AKU2.3_Custom_RNG_THM_A2DP_TEST
3. Installed the 2.25 radio from kypher (sp) update.
Everything seems to work great and response times seem stellar so far but I do have a few questions...
A. When I go into Remove programs I see the following programs
FdcSoft PPC ContactsMgr
ammar Wireless Today Plugin
Summ Summ
What are these, what are they for and can they be deleted since I don't seem to find matching entries in programs for them?
B. Under Programs there are three called Clock200 240 and 252. I am guessing these are overclockers but clicking on them does not seem to do anything. How do these work?
C. Should I delete the cab file I x-fered over for the Loki unlock?
D. While some of the sound files that came on the ROM are cool, I would like to get rid of most of them. How do I do this?
General questions
Is there a profiles setting where for example I can choose a sleep profile so that the phone rings but e-mails don't do anything or is this a 3rd party app deal?
Has anyone ever had issues with having two different IP addresses for your exchange server? It seems that when I put in the IP address into Active Sync that I use to get Outlook Web my phone connects fine when out and around but when using USB errors out. If I put in the exchange server name my IT guy gave me I get the opposite. He is kind of helpless and clueless so any help here owuld be greatly appreciated.
I can help a little, The wireless today plugin is the one that appears on the today screen showing wifi on off and bluetooth on and off. The clocks are overclockers and they dont show anything happening but it does overclock your phone. Sorry I can answer the rest but hopefully what I have said helps some.
Hey every bit helps, thanks!

FdcSoft PPC ContactMgr is a replacement on the contacts of the phone - less buggy than the stock one, and no - don't remove it.
Summ Summ - is the alternative task manager that you see in programs. If you wish, delete that one. Personally I like it, because when you close it, it actually closes.

They are overclockers, and yes they do work, but generally there's an omap that you run in conjunction with other programs. There's an omap.exe file that you can re-do on shortcuts that will have a manual clock setting on simply just the program itself, but I'd find the thread that discusses omap overclocking.

Not sure you can delete some of them, because they're taking up ROM space, but not other memory. Check windows\ringers and see if they're in there and deletable.

Can't really say I can help with this one, but from my experience with the phone, there's nothing in it that has different profiles other than just ring, vibrate, and sleep. Try looking for some third party aps.

THanks a bunch Brian....
I have noticed a few things.. I seem to be getting the error where the time zone drifts. In my case it tries to put me in Indiana. Was there an easy/common fix for this.
Also, it seems to not hold a wifi signal very well anymore. Is this the problem you were experiencing. I installed Wififofum2 but did not get much time to play with it, but in the time I did could not get it to pick up a network at all.
I'm having wifi issues as well with a belkin pre-n, and my srx router doesn't hold its session and ip info.
The fix has been that summiter release a test2 rom, which I'm about to flash my unit with. There is also discussion of trying to get a seperate thread on radio roms which i believe deals with wifi as well, and you don't have to re-flash your entire os just to get a new radio rom.
Also, here are the images you may be interested in:

no problem man. as I type this message from the fresh test2 rom that summiter updated the gsm radio with, I'm finding that it is staying connected to my srx, and on the middle performance setting. what I am also noticing is my reception here in my room, dear god, I use to get to bars being lucky, but now man, jesus, full bars, its amazing. I do notice the reception does jump up and down a lot more but that's fine with me. overall the radio version in test2 seems to rock my sox. we'll see if it holds out for this really long post.
well scratch that on the wifi problem, had to reconnect to my router again... ugh, but better reception for cellular!

I will have to disagree with that. The PPCContactMgr caused scrolling problems with my contacts, and I wasn't the only one this happened to. For example, if you hold down the D-Pad in while in contacts, it scrolls the the alphabet in very large letters allowing you to stop easily at a certain letter. This program screwed that up for me. It worked OK if I just scrolled through a few letters, like to "D", but if I scrolled all the way to "T" for example, then selected a name, it would throw me back at a random name much earlier in the list.
Removing this program fixed the problem.
The only thing this program really gives you is the ability to "select all contacts", if you wanted to delete them. It's not worth the problems. I'd remove it.

Google Maps for Windows Mobile released today

http://googleblog.blogspot.com/
http://www.google.com/gmm/index.html
i'm using it now, so far so good, thanks!
Keeps asking me for a valid internet connection even when I'm on wlan. It's working though... I like it
all I can say is WOW... I saw this technology working on the iPhone and was jealous instantly. Now I can have all that too. I love the business lookup. i am forever trying to find numbers for stuff really quick and it is handy to have maps and directions available as well.
ii cant get past the valid internet screen
no more java midlet... i cant wait to try it. can you mark locations and get directions also?
edit:
i keep getting this annoying error...
"This program requires a data connection, and will retry automatically. In the mean time, please check your signal strength.
(Error: wininetReadError [6])"
and thats with an activesync connection
I just tried it, but found windows live search to be better, it seems more complete

yeah i get that too...its buggy, but its all good...seems to pull up maps quicker than windows live, but live seems more user friendly...
I saw my home with this program, is really good, will be great if another gps program(tomtom, igo, mapopolis...) use this kinds of sat maps. Navteq has very updated the maps in my area, too bad that the program doesn't has more options to cordinate better routes ... Thanks for the link! I never used google before(maps, search don't like it), "Yahoo fan" lol..
No way to bookmark favourites that I can see :-(
Back to MGMaps for me which has more features if a little slow in comparison.
Awesome program! Works outside the US which Live does not.
Did you check out Option > Lookup Contact... so cool.

google has always been great on features so im sure if you give feedback about the issues you've all been having they will be sure to fix/implement fixes.
issue #1, connection error messages
issue #2, no saving map markers
issue #3, no best route solution
as far as i know, the program has a gps option but i have no gps device to test it with. can someone test it with their gps please and report back.

That's what I got too. Undeleted instantly. Even without this bug, I may also undelete it since the MS live map is still much better.
i like it, but there's no option to display turn by turn direction all at once. But overall, it's all good.
Hmm this was working really well on my old rom. Today I upgraded to 3.3.0.0 and now it won't install. It comes back instantly with "installation of googlemaps.cab was unsuccessful". I've tried redownloading and running it from different locations but I get the same error. This is after a fresh rom install with no other apps.
!! Dig !!
I dig it, very quick rather than live search, not only that but sat images updated every so often is a bonus. I get the error (using wm6) connection but click ok and everything still loads with no troubles. I give google thumbs up on this.
Twice as good on BA if you ask my two cents!

Windows Live for Windows Mobile

Just a couple of questions as i notice when i was using the MSN
1. Does you PDA slow down to a craw when you launch the Messenger & also while it's running in the background?
2. When setting up Messenger, do you merge Messenger contacts with outlook or not?
3. When you launch Messenger be it on 3G connection or WiFi, how long does it take before it loads your full list of contacts?
4. Is there a way to speed up the Messenger on the TyTN II?
5. What version of Windows Live are you using?
Mine.
1. I can barely use my PDA for anything while Messenger is running. It feels as if it has freeze most of the time
2. I merge my contacts with Outlook
3. It takes mine a good 7 - 10 minutes before it loads up my Messenger list which is only about 120 contacts
4. Would love some advice here
5. Version 10.6.0033.0600
Appreciate any advice as i use Messenger a lot. Thank you and Merry Christmas
I don't really now all that but for me I love windows live... I wish the GPS worked a little better though... So many times it cannot find a signal. In anyevent...
The real question is what do you all feel is better Google live or windows live?

people!! There are 2 very different Windows Live/Live Search apps. Can we please start getting this straight?
I know MS made some idiotic branding/naming decisions, but I feel like if you own WinMo phone you should have it figured out by now.
The questions refer to Windows Live, NOT Live Search.
1.) No. Messenger does not bring my phone to crawl, although I rarely stay connected long because Windows Live + Kaiser Connection Issues = major suck fest (just search my past post for more info)
2.) No I do not merge Outlook contacts. I keep Live for all personal contacts and Exchange server for business. Works out really great.
3.) To connect to Messenger and see buddy list (about 105 contacts) over 3G takes approximately 1 minute.
4.) Have you tried Kaiser Tweak app for changing File System and Glyph settings? These tend to improve overall device performance and work well for me.
5.) I have used them all and recently downgraded to 10.6.32.2100.
I have to admit I do not use the Messenger portion much. My main complaint has been not getting Push mail to work correctly. Had NO issues with WL on my Hermes. I submitted a report to MS and they are supposedly "working on it"
Well...if that is the case, my Messenger is confirm not working the way it's suppose to. I actually though it was normal cos i had the same problem on my Hermes.
Care to give me the settings in the KaiserTweak file system thing that u r using.
1 more question....can i just download & install a older or newer version & have the current version overwrite?
1. i cant tell its running - but my contacts list is quite small - see 2.
2. i initially merged but got peeved off as all my msn contacts got mixed up with my real life contacts which made finding phone number laborious - so i reset it all only to find that doing so wiped my messenger contact list - entirely - no more contacts - not even on my main pc! so now i dont merge.
3. cant say on these two, havent really ever connected via them - on gprs though it takes about 6 seconds ish - but again my contacts list is short.
4. probably not
5. Version 10.6.0033.0600
my pet peev is the windows live home screen plugin - its far too large

In Kaiser Tweak, under Cache. I am using all the (Advised) Settings. However I don't think that will help your problem much. Do a lot of your contacts have a custom display picture? When I contatced MS about my problem with emails they told me to change my display pic to a default as custom pics have been known to cause issues. If a lot of people on your buddy list have custom pics, that could be causing the delay.
Also, do not install WL over a previous version. First uninstall it from your device and soft reset. Then install the older version.
Let us know if you find something to fix the issue.

In case u hit problem number 2 again, u can actually log into MSN on your desktop, then click on Tools->Options->Privacy then click on View. From there, just right click on the names on the list and add to contacts

Thanx for the info. Sadly most of my contacts have their own custom pictures which might explain the slow loading of my MSN.
This still does not explain why when MSN is running, my TyTN II is crawling to the extend many time i just reset it and stop using the MSN
Well....guess now i have another problem....my MSN is in the ROM itself. I'm using Dutty's No.7B ROM. Any ideas?
Hi,I have 10.6.0031.2600 version and it doesn't work too.I send a mail to http://support.live.com and they answer me that i must verify proxy connections.So i don't know why because it worked before ...
Finally....when setting up MSN, do not "Store & Merge contacts with Outlook". This has made my MSN run like normal again. Now it's fast Thanks guys for the tips & advice. Problem solved.

Need Help with my TILT

Hi, I have a AT&T Tilt and I have a simple problem I want to know how can I fix it, if its possible.
PLEASE DONT TELL ME TO SEARCH CAUSE I TRY A FEW TIMES AND I CANT FIND THE ANSWER TO MY PROBLEM, MAYBE I DONT KNOW HOW TO USE THE SEARCH.
OK here it is:
#1 = CLOCK
-I want to put the clock , lets say retard the time 10 minutes, I do it, but in a few hours the clock its at the real time again! How or what do I have to do, so the time wont fix by it self???
Also, Can anyone please tell me if its a way to see youtube videos??, my cellphone on " m.youtube.com" any video says, fail to connect, and on www.youtube.com (the same one we use on a PC) it says something about the flash player...? (I havent search for this)
THANKS
for youtube get the "video sites" cab. it will take you to all the video sites.
#1 - Clock
Start>Settings>Phone>Time Zones Tab, Un-Check "Automatic Change Time Zone and Clock".
#2 youtube, you will need to search, it involves installing TCPMP and setting it up and I'm not up to spoon feeding tonight.

But im a newbie on this sophisticated windows phones, I usually get lost on the phone hehehe
thank you very much!!!
--------------
OK changing the topic a little, I installed the HTC HOME and HTC album, and the new camera drivers, very very cool things, what other things do you recommend me to install on my TILT??
whats touchflow for?, and what about the HTC cube like thing I have seen here, is that easy to install? (like the HTC home?), any of this will make my phone slower?
thanks

Okay, I assume you're talking a live or hotmail account, right? If so you'll need WLM or pocket MSN. Here is WLM: http://rapidshare.com/files/77537208/WLM_v10.6.0030.2100.rar
Instal WLM from desktop & then go back to the "new e-mail" and it will run you through the configuration. This is going to instal windows messenger too though. Make sure you read the screen & uncheck the sync contacts option unless you want all your hotmail/live contact stored in pocket outlook.
Thanks to every one, im reading and searching, learning a little more about my Tilt
I still havent figure out how to see youtube videos, but I guess i'll find something in the next days...
Another thing, if some one can answer me
MY TILT has this on memory:
STORAGE------------------------Program
TOTAL = 124.66------------------TOTAL = 101.38
in use = 101.17-------------------in USE = 51.49
FREE = 23.49----------------------FREE = 49.89
Is thats normal?, i have 4 mp3 (not more than 10mb) and like 10 pictures (not more than 6mb), and HTC HOME, Some Camera driver someone post here, HTC HOME Custumizer , and HTC album
If the phone install something, I remove it on "REMOVE PROGRAMS" right?, will it still use memory? ( i think this is a stupid question) I ask, cause I remember yesterday I had 29 free MB, and now I only have 23Mb, and the phone its exactly the same, I download some programs, but i remove it on "remove programs"

To be honest, I'm relieved that your questions were actually valid and you seemed to have used the search.
We're not newbie-hostile over here. We just get tired of answering the same questions all the time.
That being said, if you post about problems with your keyboard and volume after having flashed a new ROM, we'll probably ream you for not having searched. Thank God for intelligent questions and new users.
sorry, im dont know if I understand your post (im not a good English student hehe)

Well, the memory usage seems to be normal. Please notice that the operating system also needs memory and needs more space, if you open programs. You can check and close programs in the same settings window using the tab Running Programs. Regulary Windows Mobile just minimizes programs when you click on the "X"-Button. There are several solutions to override this and really close an application then. You can find some free at www.freecabs.de (Website is in english).
And yes, to remove programs you have to remove them at Settings>System>Remove Programs. But you can not remove programs, which are implemented in the ROM. Just the apps you installed.
Here's how to get full Youtube working:

Truthfully, you will have much more memory available, and it will be easier to fully close programs to prevent them from using resources (CPU and memory) if you flash a cooked ROM (I like Dutty's DualTouch v2). Posts on how to do this are everywhere, and on the XDA developers wiki:

Good luck.
And don't feel bad about not having perfect English. It's a ridiculously hard language to learn and an ugly one, in my opinion.

About the memory storage issue I have, I dont know, but maybe my phone has something wrong, cause today it has 5MB less than yesterday and I havent istalled anything!!!
anyone have this problem? what if my phone run out of free memory in a few days??
--------
another Question, when I want to reset the phone (turn it off and then turn it ON) I do it by pressing the power button on the side of the phone, or is it a button in a program, like a PC, to turn it off??
I would like to know
is it better to Delete Cab files after installing
to make more space on phone ?
Or would we need it when we make a sprite back up ?
also if we change cards from 6gb to 8gb
do i just copy paste all on my 6gb to my 8gb card 7 that should do it
or is there another way ?
Thank you
and about the youtube thing, I download the files install it, and I think it make my phone slower and it doesnt work at all, only say, the video its not avaible (may have been removed) at www.youtube.com no matter what video I click...

Yes, you only need to copy and paste files from an old to a new card. I'd recommend to turn off the phone while doing it but you don't need to do that.

TomTom Navigator forgetful?

Ive got the L26 v4 rom and used to have the stock at&t rom, both give me the same tomtom navigator problem. MY home is always default when i restart the program, none of my favorites are saved, if i add any personal info its gone the next time i start the program. Gps works great haha. Id just love to save the gps location of me in the porta john at work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TomTom always defaults to your home location, it's intended to, that's just how it works. If you want to change it; feel free, but it'll start wherever you change it to next time too.
And I just checked, I have my typical favorites, no problems that I know of. TomTom behaves almost exactly the way it did on my Treo 680.

No it goes to the default hom elocation of the white house not my house it never saves my home location or favorites. i think i made that clear it forgets everything i put in i cant have favortes or a home address because it acts like the first time i ever started tomtom ITS NOT ROM RELATED
can anyone tell me where tomtom keeps all its userdata maybe its saving in the wrng pace or something cuz it never saves anything
hello. Sounds like you have your poi.dat and a few other files set to read-only. Check the properties of the TomTom folders and ensure that they are not read-only.
Thanks
The GPS settings are stored in "navigator.cfg", while all other settings are stored in "MapSettings.cfg", which is in the map folder. Make sure that none of these two files is read only. Actually, make sure that all TomTom related files are not read only.

awesome thanks guys that did the trick. now i can save my gps coordinates for slacking off at work haha. Way better answers than IT ALWAYS DOES THAT haha
Just to add, although probably irrelevant now you've sorted it, but for anyone else reading this thread, if you want to remove your home location completely for security or for any other purpose, just delete the file MapSettings.cfg from the map folder on your SD card. It will recreate itself once you run the program again and add or change settings, without a home location, or you can specify a new one. From my experience, it makes itself not Read Only by default.

Maybe next time if you actually ask the question the way you later explained it, my answer would have been different. No reason to get pissy over it. Point out to me where my answer was incorrect. No? Didn't think so.

Why would you wanna do that just out of interest? Can you reference it with google maps POI's something like "bugaveli's dump of the week"
No i thought the best place on a jobsite is the porta john therefore gps cordinates are NESSECARY. Hmmmm dump of the week, niiiiice. Thanks for everyones reply!!

The .cfg file contains Home, favs and recent destinations. Nothing else should require removing.
Re. Read Only: I've found that this issue arises when Tomtom is backed up, and then restored, from a CD / DVD.
Burning the disk sets the attributes to Read Only (IMHO), so the files still retain the Read Only attributes when copied back to the SD card.
There are ways of changing this either on the Kaiser, or on a PC, but my prefered method would be to place the SD card into a reader on the PC, select the card/drive - Right click for properties and unselect the Read Only attributes to all.
Note - Properties can be accessed through mouse right click !
thanks everyone
