Hi All
Looking to get a HTC One next week, and just have a few questions:
1) Can I change the colour notifications of the LED for different notifications i.e. email and text etc? Been told the LED will not support apps to change colour.
2) Is there a good desktop dock/charger?
Cheers
1) it only has red and green LED, so no
2) so far I've only seen this one http://www.gadgets4geeks.com.au/product/htc_one_m7_cover_mate_desktop_cradle (also available on ebay)
Great, thanks very much. I'm from the UK, so having trouble finding that dock!
So I can set say green to text messages, and red to emails?
Also, what are the best screen protectors?
Thanks again
Here is an eBay link to the dock:

No you can't change the colour of the led for certain notifications I'm afraid. Green is for messages/emails/etc (and when fully charged) and red is used when charging.
As for the screen protector, I don't know much about these since I don't use them personally, but a lot of others seem to like the Spigen one ( http://www.amazon.com/SPIGEN-SGP-Protector-Steinheil-Crystal/dp/B00BUF7EI0/)
Thanks for this info, much appreciated.
Shame about the light, I've got used to the different colours!
Has anyone used this dock? Quality?
Any tip for first powering this on and setting up? Also, my Blackberry has a find my phone function, anything similar on these?
Thanks again for taking the time to reply.

No problem, glad I can help
there was a whole thread discussing that particular dock over here.
Setting up is really easy, you can add some accounts during the first boot setup menu which automatically pops up, and then you're good to go. Then all you need to do is go to the Play Store and download the apps you want and plug it in your computer to get your music and photos on it (and other things if you want to)
There are several find my phone apps available in the Play Store, and many anti-virus programs come with anti-theft built in. Htc used to have an official find my phone service, but I think they abandoned it.

I am looking for a very simple stock market ticker that would display on today screen, nothing fancy, just enter the symbols and it would show as a ticker, perhaps 1/4" in height.
I wish the HTC Today Plugin had another button very similar to weather that would display some stock market information.
That would be great, but it should also have a good collection of settings for updating... such as always update when (otherwise) connected or to initiate a connection...
The ticker should show the quotes age while market is open, then show the close price... (Maybe an option to connect for just that?)
I have been searching the internet to find such an application but no luck, the only thing I found was here http://www.magnifoca.com/ but they only make the software for a smartphone, take a look at the ticker, that's exactly what I am looking for, no bels and whistles.
I'm interested in a stock ticker too.. any news on one?
I am surprised with so much talent out there that nobody wrote such an application, like I said magnifoca has one but it's only for smartphones, I e-mailed them couple of times but no response. There are many such programs for PC's and I am sure it's not that difficult to port it to pocket pc's.
Have you tried that Smartphone program on a Pocket PC? Some Smartphone programs run fine on a PPC.

Very cool!!
I just installed this on my Kaiser and it's a keeper. Can I join development on this? I would like the background to have an option to go green or red on each update if the price went up or down.

Yeah I would like to have a red and green indicator, that tells me if it fell or went up
I have a question. Is It possible for someone to make a program that will automaticaly switch the today screen programs that are displayed. Sort of a Work set up and an enertainment or night setup.
during the day I have a big clock and the Today Adgenda that takes up my whole screen for work. I have other today screen programs and wall papers installed, but I have to manualy change the setup back to what i need everyday for work. There are great today screen wallpapers and apps. and I JUST WANT to be able to use some of them..
AM i Being vain and just wanting a flashy Today screen? Hell Yes
I did search and all I could find is a theme and wall paper switcher and the ringer program
Thanks for looking
That idea is so good that i´m sure someone has been thinkin´of it.
Maybe some of those autoprofile progs can do that.
Good idea! Anyone?
software development and software issues
Should I have posted this thread in the software development and software issues section, for Kaisers?
it would be great to have something like that... sort of like an apprearence profiler
Hey fellow forum users,
I recently (read: last tuesday afternoon) got my Diamond. And I am kind of lost.
First of all, my internet doesn't work. Tuesday begin of the evening it did work. But at the end of the evening and today it hasn't worked at all. @ the dutch vodafone site there are specific things you need to fill in which I did. However it still doesn't work. So I will be giving them a call first thing tomorow.
Second of all, my music. When I plug in my Touch Diamond on the computer, I see this map "content" I click on it and I see "music" so I put an album in there, but there is no music on the phone. Does it have to be converted? because I didnt find a converter on any of the cd's I was given. The same thing with my video. I put a movie on it for testing, but can't find that anywhere on my phone either.
Further I have some requests,
- I am looking for a transparant clock (the white part transparant) so you'll see the wallpaper better.
- I am looking for a way to change the bottom bar.
- I am looking for the best way to use my gps receiver (like a program or something).
- A way to simplify my contacts, I find it very annoying to have all this info. I just want to keep their names with e-mail, mobile phone numer and home number.
- A thing like that weather tab, only then with the time. Don't know if it's out but I find that a really funny feature on the iPods. Perhaps with those huge analog clocks showing the time of 6 countries in the world
Thanks in advance,
Dennis
p.s. I'll be using this topic if allowed for some further questions and am looking forward to any advice given.
p.p.s general advice on what to do with it for easier and better use of the device is very very much welcome.
p.p.p.s I have these programs on my phone aswell, as a .rar file still though if that matters (he said not), someone adviced me to put them on:
- Mortonscript
- Diamond TF3D Config Setup
- Automatic Wallpaper changer (no use for this yet but I really liked the background he was talking about that changed to the time it was, so like a sun during the day and a moon during the night).
I am completly lost at the moment. Gonna study the books that were packed with it I guess. Any help is appreciated.
1000 times thanks for anyone who can help.
(and hope this is allowed)
anyone that can help?

Hi Dennis,
I'll try to help where I can. The internet issue you will probably have to sort out with your provider. If it was working and now it isn't it the only thing I can think of is you made some change to the network config. They should be able to get it working again.
As for Music I found the best way to transfer music to the Diamond is through active sync. Plug your phone in to your PC, when prompted on the phone select active sync, then on the PC open up Windows Media player and select sync. Then just drag and drop the music you want on your phone to the sync panel and then click sync. All the music you selected will be transferred to your phone and the album art and everything if it is available will be displayed on the phone.
For the transaprent flip clock and lots more tf3d mods, look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436867
For the bottom bar you have to be more specific, do you want to change the softkeys??
I find the best GPS software is either google maps or microsoft live search, both are free, google them!
For contacts there are many solutions out there, you will have to look on your own, sorry!
I've seen world clock application but most of them are home plugins, again you will have to look around on your own..
As for the rest, you will have to spend some time reading and searching. I don't advise reading the book that came with it as it contains very little useful info.
hit me back if you have anymore questions!!! oh and welcome to the community!!!
With changing the bottombar I mean putting like perhaps the gps on the spot of the photo / video etc.
Thanks btw
Sorry Dennis, as far as i know there is currently no method for changing the tf3d tabs. You can add some but really they already exist just not displayed. You can try SSmapa to replace some of the default functions.
Hello,
First i want to thank everybody for sharing their knowledge on this forum, i bought my D2 recently and iv'e almost configured just the way i like it. I just have a small annoyance in the Calender function:
When i add a new appointment it fills in some standard values, like time begin-end 12:00h - 13:00h and 15 minutes reminder & status: busy.
Is there anyway to change these standard values? i've tried finding corresponding register values but i can't find them. Does anyone know where i can find them. Or is it in a file?
I've considered some other calendar programs, but i really like how the standard calender looks, its slick.
I also tried the app called gekonewcall
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=434760
Which is a nice program but it needs some final additions to fully replace the standard "new appointment"
Does anyone know how the change this??
I hope i'm not the only one who's so whiny about this
Thx in advance
-Drosh7
Does GekoNewCal work on D2? It says "require VGA res", is it still compatible with the WVGA???
Ok, I tried it, it does indeed work... With a white square in the bottom of the screen area due to the screen size difference
Neat app.. But the dev seems to be dead..

Yes indeed, if he had made the changes he said he would in his upcoming release the app would be totally awesome. Now it feels a little unfinished
Still hope someone knows a way to change the values in the standard calendar tool. Would really love it to be able to quickly add appointments.
Ever since I upgraded the Xperia to RAA3, the green LEDs that blink on reciept of an unread SMS message, are very dim, I have missed many text messages because of this. Other LED notifications, such as missed call, reminder, etc., are all fine, nice and bright, easy to see, but, the unread SMS is extremely dim. Has anyone else experienced this, or, better still, is this a solution without my messing about with registery items myself.
Brian (Huddersfield)
You rely on those lights to receive sms's? lol
i usually use the vibe or the ringtone, but hey to each his own.
But on a serious note, maybe its dim just because the green is a dark color in itself compared to the others the phone produces.
Hi ........
Yes, I do rely on the flashing LEDs, as, I'm often out of the room or out, when coming back, it's nearly impossble to tell if you an unread SMS etc., without actually turning the phone on.
A small CAB file to increase the brightness of the (green) LEd would be great ...........
Xperia Tweak (in sticky apps collection) lets you change the LED pattern very easily ...have mine on quick blue flashes -nice and bright
Hello Jcsxda
Thanks for taking the trouble to reply, I can't seem to find that particular cab file you mention, an you give me a link if it's not too much trouble.
Also, I recently upgraded (via the offical SE site) to RAA3, will this application still work with the later RAA3?
Thanks in advance

Hello again Jcsxda ........
Seems someone popped in there and broke the thread. If you could please post a link to LED modify prog. for the Xperia, I would be grateful, if you have the time of course.
My green LEDs for an unread SMS are very dim, the others are fine, nice and bright.
Thanks

Orelsi was being helpful -its the first link on the page he posted ... "XperiaTweak v2"
Here is the link to th edevelopper's own site where you can dl the app:-
http://www.cliffords.nu/
... Opps, sorry, I didn't realise it at the time! I can see the point now.
Finally, will it work with R3AA, whcih I recently updated to?
Thanks again.
Brian
Yep -am running R3AA myself
....... OK, thanks for that, much appriciated.
try spb phone suite which has a phone notification feature to remind you by sound or tone for any sms or missed calls on a preset time
Dull LEDs on unread SMS, other are fine!
Hi Ericmateo .......
Thanks for that, I did look at the progamme, but it does more than I need, does not modify LED brightness and will probably occupy valuable memory space.
My problem is, the SMS unread LED flash, is very dim regardless of what colour I change it to, this probably means the 'lit' duration is so short, any chosen colour will still be dim.
I only noticed this after upgrading to RAA3. This is my only gripe about the Xperia, I absolutley love the phone, having goe through all the 'XDA' series, this is certainly the best so far.
Anyone else any ideas please?

this is a specific program that is being developed to change the patterns of the LEDs easily.
Check it out. It works a treat and being updated all the time.
