HTCdriver.com... help needed on mail-adresses, pls support!

oke people, i did it, registred www.htcdriver.com, tonight i will make a little site (to keep datatraffic low) and set up the site. I was thinking of making it very simple and only with FACTS and no flaming at all. it is just to get people knowing that there are issues and make it pop up fast on google.
Tonight i will start working on it, now it's forwarded to my other site in order to get rid of spam.
Any ideas here are welcome.
REMIND: I'm not going to post any illigal things on it, only facts!
cheers... René

Good work, fella.
Plenty of relevant links - to xda and to YouTube vids of the problem - would be a good idea.

HAHAHA, nice done bro.

Strange when i click the link I goto http://www.digitalpicture.nl/
btw, I'm an amateur photographer too .

Hi aksd,
You see digitalpicture.nl as it if being forwarded at the moment...

Aaah, missed that line I guess. Thanks mate.

Great idea. I was thinking about spamming forums aswell, but I doubt I'll make myself populair that way .
Hope it gets a lot of hits and rises to the top of google when people start looking for reviews and stuff before buying.

Just want to notice that you have to optimize web page for search engines to put it on top Domain name is only for people (when trying address directly or remembering it from last time).
So using keywords in HTML, linking between web pages and many other things can help.
But its good that someone at least start web pages about this problem!

off course i understand that, it will be hosted on the same domain as well. Now preparing all the text, metatags etc. etc. but the last message was that i cannot upload in the first 48 hours...
So, I'm going to put my other site offline and forward the htcdriver.com to my other site, until i have a good ftp on that one.
any other ideas of the metatags:
<meta name="description" content="problems with the videodriver on your HTC" />
<meta name="keywords" content="driver, htc, Qualcomm, TYTNII, tytn, s730, touch, cruise, mobile, ppc, ms7200, dual, video, camera, movies, playback, issues, qtv, qcamera, qdecoder" />
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow" />
<meta name="revisit-after" content="3 days" />
<title>htcdriver.com</title>
<!-- htc, video, issue --><cmt>

is the site down? I just got this:
This website is coming soon
If you are the owner of this web site you have not uploaded (or incorrectly uploaded) your web site. For information on uploading your web site using FTP client software or web design software, click here for FTP Upload Information.

Well seems we are going to do the same work twice as I also registered htcclassaction.org ...

Re
Lol, then we can link to each other
For me it's no problem, I'm just setting up a very very simple site, only stating the problems etc. etc. Just simple html, no php, only intend to inform people...
Are you planning making it more complicated?
Groeten René

Mwah, a bit. Not really complicated

Meta tags are not a big deal.
Just make sure you use proper html (h1, h2 h3, p ul etc) and simple plain English when explaining the problems with the drivers. This is more important then keywords.
May want to put Google Analytics on there also.
I'm a full time web developer so if you want any tips let me know.

Feel free to use any material that you find useful from:
http://www.htcwiki.com/page/HTC+TyTN+II+Video+Issues

Re
Site layout is done (visible on www.digitalpicture.nl), can someone check if it's ok? Don't bother the text on the different pages, I'm busy with that right now
Tnx for offering the use of the wiki, I'm sure gonna do that!
cheers

It looks OK in my Opera 9.24.
I only have one suggestion, maybe you can try edit logo to better describe problem and align it to the left. I think it could attract people more.
But content is more important than graphic design, so its also great this way!

Good luck with this, hopefully this will get them on the same page as us and release some drivers. This is pretty ridiculous in the first place we have to even do this.

vnc client???

does anyone know of a good vnc client for the t-mobile wing??? any direction would be great... thanks in advance...
bennie

by the way, im looking for a freeware client...
::EDIT::
sorry for the double post... i thought it would auto-merge...

I Googled for "Pocket VNC" and this - http://dotnetvnc.sourceforge.net/ - was the second or third result.....looks like it'll do the job...and it's free....
(There's plenty of other alternatives returned by the above search; you might want to investigate some of those too? And if you find something that rocks, post back so the rest of us can share your findings )
Mark.

i searched in the past and downloaded a few that i wasn't particularly impressed with... i guess i should have clarified my question a little more...
i did find this one after digging a little more...

Yeah, I spotted that one, but as no-one's touched it for 4 years I figured it wouldn't be up to much - the site doesn't mention WM5, let alone WM6 so I reckon it'd be pretty shaky....YMMV
I'm sure there's loads of VNC clients around for Smartphone/PPC - everybody and his dog has done a version for Windows (and I've even used a version on HP OpenVMS )
Mark.

its working just fine... in fact, i tried a few others that didn't allow me to use my keyboard and/or mouse to take control of the host... this one does all of the things that the newer ones didn't... im very pleased thus far...

Awesome touch browser

is it so bad to let other people know about it who otherwise might have missed it, and ask for their respected opinion.
i started the other thread in kaiser forum.
hope you had your "fun" with it.
will tell you next time.. NOT.
greetings

Whats your problem? I thought I had a funny post. Did I say anything bad to anyone??

zooming
from what i read and saw in the vid, no zooming ==> not that very practical

It does zoom though...anyone out there have a cab yet?

Definitely Not Awesome. Quite Lame In Fact!!!

Hey, I thought you showed great restraint, considering there is a SOFTWARE board. BTW, you know his problem....Nothing better in life to do???
Anyway, looks like this is just a crappy interface for PIE.
Did anyone other than myself read the manual?
From the manual:
"Why do some pages display incorrect? TouchBrowser uses the Pocket Internet Explorer to render HTML pages. It's a new user interface on top of an existing browser. TouchBrowser renders pages exactly the same as Pocket Internet Explorer. Pages that Pocket Internet Explorer can't handle correctly (like websites with Flash, or with complex layouts) are also rendered incorrectly by Touchbrowser. If you're looking for a browser that can handle these websites correctly, Touchbrowser is not the thing you're looking for, but we advice Opera or a similar browser based on a more modern rendering engine."

From PPCGeeks:
Definitely not a welcome product. Developers, if you want to get paid, develop real, self-sufficient software. Piggybacking on existing software is a waste of your resources.
Beware, this is not a browser. It is only a user interface a la PointUI. TouchBrowser is a UI that uses PIE to render web pages and is not likely to produce an iPhone like experience as it's website states, especially since PIE does not render tables as mobile Safari does. The company tells on itself in its own manual. To add insult to injury, there's a $14.95 charge to use the UI.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

Yeah I was quite disappointed. The site states that it uses the WebKit engine, which is the one used by Safari, and therefore it's supposed to be a better browser. It apparently doesn't if it renders with PIE.
Edit: And the whole reason why I am looking for another browser is because I DONT WANT TO USE PIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

opera 8.65 suits me just fine, haven't tried the newer release yet

I am still waiting for Skyfire

I emailed them about a trial version and they responded that one should be available next week.

wallpapers and themes and icons oh my

is there some massive library of icons, themes and wallpapers for the tilt?
I downloaded a random pinhead wallpaper but it looked all screwed up when I 'tilted'
also I have the home customization thing and downloaded all the icons and clocks and stuff, but there's really not too many I like

use the SEARCH tool..
or better yet...try GOOGLE..i heard it helps

now now. the label senior member beside you name only means that youve got 100 + posts and doesnt give the right to be a penis

lmaoo..na dude its nothing like that!
its just that its a ppc website..even if u spell theme wallpaper or skin wrong ur gonna get a million and nine things..
ESPECIALLY in google

true, but you could've at least mentioned to google mobile9.

Or it means that you've helped 100 people with legitimate questions and problems after they bothered to do even a basic search to help themselves first.

why do people in forums act like making a new post is so bad?
more text = more search results = more traffic
anyways I'm not used to windows way of doing things where you just google something and then just download files from anyone who offers them to you
which is why I thought, maybe the people who know more about the tilt could point me at a specific known-decent/good site.
excuse me for living

You are excused for living... not for posting redundant threads. lol at the "windows" way (what does that even mean?) of doing things, especially when you dont HAVE to google and download to find what you want. The moderaters of this site have been kind enough to give us a search function and for stuff like this it has, of course, been asked about and answered many times.
also,
No, more text = a more crowded message board = frustrated people leaving when searching for an answser about given subject pops up 100 threads and then user has no idea where to even start.

More redundant threads-more diluted search results-more frustration trying to find even the simplest thing.
And an astronomical task of cleaning the site up of redundant and useless posts

Website stuff?

Anyone interested in helping maintain a website intended to be a central location for all things sprint htc hero customizations. I know this has been attempted in the ROM, MOD and Theme threads in different threads, but I thought it might be more helpful to have everything more centralized and organized on its own site.
I'm thinking something similiar to the threads we have now, but presented more like a photo gallery style format.
If we don't think it is something that is wrothwhile, then I'll just offer a mirror to people that want one. The domain is:
sprinthtcheroroms dot com,
you can email me there at riggs Android at sprinthtcherroms dot com, if you are interested or would want your stuff hosted there as a mirror.
Just trying to do my part to help the community....

I have a few ideas as to how this could be accomplished. What sort of time frame are you thinking? I have a lot of experience with Joomla and would be willing to help you get an instance set up and try and help maintain it. I am a software developer by day, so I try not to spend too much time on a computer when I get home, but I think I could swing some time on weekends. As far as a custom solution goes, I am a huge fan of GWT and think that if you were thinking long term this is a possible solution, but is by no means a fast one. Most of the devs in the community use wordpress as their content management solution. I prefer Joomla because of it's plugability and it is less centralized around being a blog. As far as download management for Joomla, some of the more popular are DocMan and Phoca. I have integrated phpBB into Joomla before, but I would like to find something that is a bit easier if you would like to do a forum. I have been out of building php and content management sites for 2 years since I graduated, but the most feature rich Joomla example of my work is www.morningshowcentral.com.
I agree it would be nice to have a one stop shop for all things hero. I have found that it is very difficult to find these things because they end up getting buried in the forums. You could give an account to all the major devs so that they could post their releases, and it would be nice if we could set up a way for devs to get faster feedback on real problems yet not have to deal with trivial problems that can be solved by the community.

How's rooting going? <--hijacking own thread.

I can help, i have extensive experience in Vbulletin 3.8/4.0 If you need me you can pm me.

Ok, so I've been working on the layout of the site and such, and have the following request.
Anyone who has a FAST internet connection, can you download ROMs for me and upload them to my server? At home I only have a 3MBs/768KBs DSL line.
If you are willing I can give you a login for hte FTP for the rom folder.
I would do it, but my internet stinks...
Anyone want to do some compiling of information? I am trying to just grab posts from here, androidforums, androidcentral, etc. and clean them up (give credit to EVERYONE) just to have everything in one place.
Working in JOOMLA.
Thanks guys.
