Exchange from 2.0 to 1.6 - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Is there any way i can get the exchange client from 2.0 and some how put in on 1.6?
I just can't use the new Hero 2.1 or 2.0 due to lack of features and no bluetooth. I know they are working on them but 1.6 is just stable and runs like a champ.
The reason I would like the exchange from 2.0 or hero 2.1 is becuase of the certificates and how it works with them.
My work email requires certain ones and it gets hung up alot with the exchange on 1.6
It worked perfectly with the one on 2.0.
Any suggestions? Thanks guy.

MSN on rogers branded HTC Dream

Hey all, I just got my HTC dream on june 2nd and am switching from a sidekick lx. Note that I'm in Canada. Love this phone, but one deal breaker is the lack of an msn client. I tried some of the client available on the market, but connectivity sucked. I read somewhere on this forum that after the 1.5 (cupcake) update that an msn client was added. Our canadian htc dream came with a different version of 1.5 and does not have the msn client. My questions are this:
1. Is there anyway to get .apk for this application that you lucky americans got with the 1.5 update? If so can someone direct me to it?
2. Is the connectivity better than hi msn and meebo? Both of those suck if I'm not wifi connected.
your wrong. cupcake is the first version with no defult clients other than Gtalk. The old ones has an app called IM and it had MSN. At least the 1.1 does.
Thanks for the clarification. Is there anyway to get a good msn client on the g1 without root?
The US (T-Mobile) Cupcake build has the IM app with AIM/MSN/Yahoo. It has been ported to various other cupcake builds as well, most based on JF 1.51 (cyanogen's seems most popular right now).
I have yet to see it working on a rogers or HTC build.
The built in IM app also uses SMS instead of data, which many people dislike. Connectivity is also questionable, and from my experience, similar to any other app since android automatically shuts off background apps when memory is needed.
From my understanding, you will probably need root to get the IM app. Unless you can adb remount and push on an unrooted build which I don't think is possible.
Thanks for the info. The text message usage is very undesireable. Geez... who thought that would be a good idea?? I suppose i'll just hope and pray that hi msn or some other market download gets better. Thanks so much for the clarification, i thought i was missing out.

2.1 Mail.apk

Can anyone help me out here?
The 2.1 work Mail app seems to be the only one that works really well for me. I'm wondering if it is possible to back port the 2.1 work mail.apk to Super D 1.8. This is the best build i have found for speed, well that works for me anyways. Is this possible?
The 2.1 has an SSL certificate option and this work best i have found with Lotus notes.
thanks.
if someone could point me to the apk i would appreciate it.
Anyone have a suggestion?
Tried K-9?

rom question

hey all I have a question is there a rom for the G1 that has the interface and features of
MDJ_FroYo_HD_v._4.6_MDJ_S78.0
thanks,
Reg
Way to make your question as awkward to answer as possible...
The ROM you're referring to features the 'new' HTC Sense, built on Froyo. There are Sense ROMs for Dream, but only based on Eclair (AFAIK, there are HVGA froyo sense builds but no one has ported them to Dream yet).
So you can get something similar, just based on Eclair, without the new Sense features... oh, and it will run like molasses.
sorry wasn't really sure how to put the question and that is the same rom I jun on my HD2 so i figured it would be easiest just to include the rom name.
Are there any downsides to going back to Eclair?
No native Apps2SD, things don't seem to run quite as fast. Nothing major, it's just outdated.
thanks that is what i needed to know
I have a quick question about G1 rom(s) as well, and don't think a new thread is necessary- I hope yonu won't mind if i use his thread..
I bought a G1 for my sister- she needs only facebook, youtube, some internet, texting, calling. The G1 is from rogers and it came with android 1.5- I immediately installed the newest cyanogen (6.x) on it by following the official cyanogen wiki. Now, however, the G1 is sometimes slower than my X1 running android. That doesn't seem right. Is this a normal cyanogen behavior? If yes, is there some light rom that is fast and stable? (it has to be froyo, as she needs facebook notifications.)
Thanks!

Pretty much, it's an old device. Your X1 has the same CPU as the G1, but has 64mb of RAM more than the G1.
Try the ezterry's Froyo MyTouch port, it's a port of the froyo build that was released for the mytouch3g (same hardware as G1). If that doesn't satisfy you, you'll be looking at going back to donut (1.6).
Thnx for replies.
to AdrianK: Is donut faster on G1? I always though that JIT makes Froyo the fastest android.. but I guess that works only when there is enough RAM..
to traumatism: Not sure here, but didn't it say in the marketplace that the notifications (by that I mean info in status bar about new message, comment etc showing up even when the fb app is not running) are available only for android 2.2 and up?

2.2 keyboard on 2.1

Hi, I'm wondering if any of you gotten the android 2.2 keyboard to work on the hero with 2.1 installed. I am mostly interested in this because I want to use the microphone for speech to text...thanks for any information you have! (I currently also have an Evo and the speech to text works like a charm, save a lot of time.)

finally contemplating getting rid of WM but have questions 1st

i have a bell htc touch and have been running NFSFANS ROM and a 2.2 version of android(can't remember which one i tried many) but for the last while android has become unstable, randomly locking up or resetting.
is this common? because it never happened on my warm donut build.
could it be less stable because its running from the sd and not nand?
im afraid that if i switch to android only il have a complete unstable POS just because i want android 2.2 or better
thats why ive kept WM despite hating it because if there was a problem i know it will not crash on me making a phone call or something.
im also a lazy bugger and like that WM can be controlled by my PC, i do this to type longer SMS's and such is there a way to do that on android?
anyway im indecisive what build of android should i use? and are there any downsides to going pure android that i should know about?
and what app should i use to backup my contacts, sms, call history, etc. and is there one that works on WM aswell so i can merge my WM stuff with my adroid stuff and then back it up
thanks
I am running SuperFroyo and it's super stable. Maybe once a week or so it will freeze up but that seems better than WinMo.
I have not got in to sync with a Windows machine, but it does sync just fine with Ubuntu. The Google Voice works well for dictating texts and that's what I mostly use, it's pretty accurate even with my (mild) drawl.

You can use "Funambol Sync Client" to sync with both android and windows mobile. You can also try gingerbread instead of froyo. The latest Gingerbread build is more stable to use, and also for the freezing part, you can overclock your processor to about 520Mhz (for complete stability) but I got it up to 550Mhz for more speed especially when playing games. Hope this helps.
is there a way to go nand without using windows?
if not is the stickyed guide " Easiest Step-By-Step Android Tutorial for the Vogue (NAND Method/Internal Memory)" actually the easiest way?
i ask because its older thus potentially out of date
if not i have a question
step 6 is "Download the latest NBH file that begins with "voguimg-240x320-..." (needed for all Vogue Android ROMs):"
but the latest one is voguimg-240x320-2.6.32-froyo-14-01-11_14.nbh and what if i was planning on running on trying a gingerbread? like Scoot CyanogenMod 7.0.2 RLS2 does it matter that the nbh is for froyo if not is that the best nbh to use?
thanks
I've been running Android on my device for more than a year now. I reflash every few months to one of the new releases to keep the device fresh and ensure that I have the latest bug fixes.
The device isn't SUPER stable, it crashes probably once a week but other than that, it's fine. I use it in my 2010 Kia Forte and it bluetooth syncs the address book.
I recommend it.
+1
i seem to have gotten it installed on nand
im running Scoot CyanogenMod 7.0.2 RLS2 but i noticed when i tried to download a
.zip file it mentioned that i dont have a sd card when i do
why wouldnt it show up and how can i fix it?
thanks
