Questions about Fuze after ROM Upgrade - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Greetings
I essentially just received my new Fuze (which I'm gathering is the at&t version of the Diamond) and upgraded to the new Rom. All is working well except I have a couple of questions
1. Where is the FM Radio application? I can't find it under programs or anywhere else.. am I missing something, as it supposedly was part of the ROM upgrade (which was successful)
2. Device lock.. Mine simple doesn't. I cant find any app to lock it, plus if I set the disconnect button (hangup..end..etc) to lock the device with a long button press.. nothing happens... I am completely unable to lock the device? Again am I missing something here?
3. On some applications, using Opera.. if I try to log in and there appears to be a java app to do the log in.. pressing sign in (after filling in the user id and pwd) doesn't do anything... It worked fine on my prior phone (a Samsung Epix ) and works fine on my pc?
Thanks for any help

Just to be clear, does your device have a qwerty keyboard?

Yes it does have a slide out qwerty keyboard..
I just realized that a device lock on this phone is unnecessary, so i take back that question.. .. stupid question on my part

headset issues plus a few other questions

Hi all,
I have just purchased a t-mobile ameo and have so far unlocked and upgraded to wm6. I have a BT bluetooth headset which I have linked with my device and is saved as wireless headset BUT when I turn it on, I am asked for a passcode (there isn't one!) and as a result, I can't use it.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Phil
Hi again, you seem to take the same way I went with my Ameo...ROM, BT problems, contacts problems etc. ;-)
The passcode to nearly all BT devices - if not stated otherwise in your headset manual - is 0000, type it in and try.
Under settings/connections/bluetooth there should also be an entry "security" or so which states "authentication (passkey) required", if you turn it off (not recommended), it should work without a passkey.
Hi again Will,
I've checked all that, security is turned off yet it still asks for a passkey when I turn on the headset and try to make a call. When I first connected the headset, I tried 0000 but it is rejected?!?
Oh, while I have you...
I've just installed tomtom 6 and am having a few issues:
1. Tomtom is listed on the today screen but will not load from there
2. it doesn't appear in my programs folder, I have to go to file explorer/my device/program files/navigator/tomtom
is there anyway to make it easier to access? It's not a problem, just a chore.
Is there anyway to get running programs option on the today screen? it was the on the lower left option before I unlocked etc...
Cheers again for your help and patience.
Phil
You should also try 1234.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. headset: then it should be another passkey, depending on your headset vendor, maybe you can find more help there, sorry.
2. TomTom: seems to me that it wasn't installed properly or maybe you've loaded a Today-skin that doesn't work 100% with it?
...first try to add TomTom by looking in settings/personal?/menus (it should be listed there, otherwise the program is definately not installed properly) perhaps you should then un- and reinstall it (my first TomTom6 worked immediately on a Dell Axim X5)
3. Running programs: are you referring to taskmanager which shows running applications/processes? I'm not sure if it is present in an official ROM (I'm using MichyPrima 5.1), search in programs for it, if its there you can then add it to today or start menu via the settings.
Hey will,
I'll try the new code tomorrow, my "copy" of tomtom looks like it doesn't install correctly so I'll have to try another. When i say running programs, it's the section of memory which tells you which programs are still running in the background.
By the way I'm using spb which has helped with certain customizations.
On a separate note, has anyone tried installing shadow of legend (mmorpg)? I wanna give it a try BUT it either won't copy across or freezes my system.
Cheers Phil
Did you try 1234?
1234 worked!
Thanks bud

New tilt with WM6.1

I recently called in a warranty for my tilt due to a broken screen. They shipped a new one, and low and behold it had 6.1. I didn't think I could mess up my phone by installing a theme .cab that was made for a different version of windows, but I did. It rebooted five to six times, and after that it would either stay turned off or on. When it was on, the touch screen was unresponsive, as well as the hardware keys. I called the insurance and they said they might have sent a defective phone [didn't say anything about the .cab file hah], and now I'm back where I started.
I'm scared if I install old .cab files I will have the same situation.
Will the KaiserTweak.exe still work well with WM6.1?
This might be a little far fetch to hope for, but will this theme work for the tilt: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366521
If not, am I able to use old themes for the diamond without being stuck in reboot?
Another problem I've found is I'm unable to edit the windows of my phone folder on my computer. I'm wanting to do some heavy changes, and it's easier to navigate on my computer. The error message I get when I try to copy/paste clock images is that I don't have permission to edit the files. Is there a fix for this?
I ran into the same problem as you at first. I ended up using the HTC Home Customizer to set any changes theme wise and that did the trick. As for the Kaiser Tweak, it does work with 6.1 and I have used it quite a bit to unlock some of the limitations of the Tilt. Another option would be to use the Advanced Configuration Tool, from Julien Schapman. It seems to work pretty good too and works well with 6.1. For the locked file problem, I have not run into it much, you could try and use MyMobiler to remote to your phone so you can use the mouse to move things around. Hopefully that helps.
I found the black theme I was looking for here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364541
I still have the "cannot copy "'HH_HOME_0':Access is denied. Be certain that there is enough free storage memory, that the destination is not write protected, and that the file is not currently in use" As well as unable to edit it from my computer.
It's not in use because I disable the HTC home plug in, so it's not showing up on the today screen.
Same deal, i had 6.1 on the new one, and it took some doing to get hardspl to take on the phone. Also the bloatware just kept coming back no matter what i did. The window on the bloatware reset is like 1 second now w/ 6.1. It loads it so fast.

TYTN 2 Freezing/ Scrambled screen

Ive had my tytn 2 for a little over a month now, and I've noticed something when I'm using the phone for heavy texting. After a while, the phone will more or less freeze. The chime stops sounding for a new text, however, the phone continues to operate, and will recieve calls. Also, when the alert stops sounding, if I close the text messaging and return to the today screen, the screen is all scrambled. I have done a few hard resets now to try and clear the problem. I am going to be unable to return the phone to the place I bought it from, as we had a disagreement over the last phone I purchased through them(long story). The touch screen still works on the today screen, and if you know where to push, it will still open programs, just everything looks like snow....
Now, I have WM 6.1 on it(factory rom) ROM version 3.29.422.1 WWE, the ROM date is 05/20/08. The radio version is 1.70.18.02. The phone is used on a T-mobile affiliate(IWireless) network. The techs there are idiots, and I don't think they could dial with this let alone tell me how to fix it....
My previous phone was a T-mobile MDA, which I did love. I know about using different ROMS, Im just not sure how/which one to use on my TYTN 2. HELP ME PLEASE!
anybody have this problem too? it is getting incredibly irritating. I called tech support last night, and the people that I talked to had no idea what I was even talking about. It almost seems as if there is a lag in the programs. I occasionaly get a screen that is telling me that tmail.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. i let it send the error report, but the text program stays open.
Any help would be appreciated!
have you tried to reflash to the factory rom?
Can you warranty it with HTC?
Sounds like a harware problem -- specifically the cable that connects the keyboard is either loosly connected or damaged.
Try to get service directly through HTC -- but if you can't you might want to open it up and see if the cable is seated properly
im not sure it it is a hardware problem, as the phone will go skitzo on me even if I open the keyboard and leave it open. it usually would only do it when im texting, but it did it today, when the phone was on silent, I switched it back to on, and read a text message(did not open it), and when I tried to close the text and return to the today screen, it froze up again, and I had to do a soft reset. im really thinking its a software issue...
I would try to reflash, I had a ROM on mine that had the same problem, I did a reflash and never had the problem again.
Is there any way that I can do the reflash and still have the pre-loaded settings from my carrier? I'm thinking that I can't, but is there a place that I can be pointed to to get a copy of how to do the re-flash? It's got WM 6.1 Professional on it, and it is a branded copy(maybe part of the problem?). Obviously, I need to take some time to write down all of the settings for internet and such...
Are you talking about the network settings or something else? Most ROM's have a connection wizard that will setup network and MMS settings.
mostly the settings for the mms messages, and the internet settings. when I flashed a new rom to my mda, I had to manually put them in, the auto wizards wouldn't work.

Device Lock question, locks when using the device - argh - help please

Hi everyone,
For security purposes I need the device to autolock when I turn it off. I do this with the windows 'lock' set to 0 minutes (and a simple password).
I use the HTC stock rom 5.05.405.1 WWE.
Works like a charm, BUT... when I use my device, on the internet, play a game and so on, the device usually does not recognise it's being used and goes into lock mode.
The Elite RC3 rom seems to have a fix for this 'lock', as it does recognise I use the device, and it doesn't lock it when I am busy.
I don't want to use RC3 (stability issues) but I do want the improved lock behaviour.
Does anyone know how this can be improved?
I tried a bunch of device lock tools, but none do what I need. I need a simple lock when switched off. Windows mobile provides it... it's just annoying that it fails to see user activity.
Any help is appreciated!
Cheers,
David
Hi,
Does anyone have any suggestions? Apart from moving back to Elite RC3 of course...

AC's S2 unlock
Hey, try AC's slide 2 unlock.. Great proggy and very customizable
i use the latest versio of touch lock pro works pretty good fo me so u can give it a try. just do a search for in on the forum and ull find it
Hi,
Thanks for the suggestions, but for security reasons I need it to be password protected... that's why I would like to stick with the WM6.1 device lock, or move to another tool if it has decent password protection (that you can not read from 20 feet away like some gesture lock things...).
Thanks again. If I find a solution I will post it.

clock problem

Hi
Hopefully this isnt wrong section, if it is i apologize
problem:
after i installed official rom from htc page (did that when it was released):
RUU_Diamond_HTC_FIN_2.03.414.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship everything seemed to work "fine".
but now my htc acts weird, if i look clock time on my htc it shows wrong time and is behind hour or 2 every.
only fix for that is if i turn off phone and then turn on again.
is there a fix here for that (custom rom etc) as only softwares ive installed are RDC and Garmin Mobile XT.
another question: is there a way to lock applications from starting in the middle of phonecall, usually when i end up call i have to close n+1 applications that have been opened during call (good side of touchscreen )
also tried to search suitable roms for my htc, but wasnt able to find as i reside in estonia and have to use finnish rom.
