Hi,
I've been trying to get the MDA Vario to vibrate when I get a new Email message, but it will very occasionally do it and the rest of the time it doesn't. I have ticked vibrate in Sounds and notifications, but its still abit hit and miss.
Can anybody help ?
Thanks in advance.
Ash.
Any chance you could maybe let us have a few details such as what ROM version you are using, any apps you use etc.. I'd have a look myself but It's hard for me to see your phone from here.. :wink:
ROM Version : 2.21.2.6 WWE
ROM Date : 3/9/06 <---- American format
Radio version : 02.19.11
Protocol version : 4.1.13.09
ExtROM version : 2.21.2.109
I have got Pocketbreeze / Pocket weather / TT Navigator 5.21 / Resco 2005 Explorer.
The problem seems to be if the Backlight is on, then it will vibrate. If the Backlight is not on then it will not vibrate for new email, but will still vibrate for new SMS or voice calls.
Im not sure if this behaviour is by design or by fault.
Any ideas ??? I REALLY want the unit to vibrate for emails as its a really good function.
Ash99
OK - I have just tried some tests on my Wizard. With the backlight on I can receive text & email and both activate the vibration function.
With the device in standby (backlight off), a new email notifies and vibrates but does not take the device out of standby. A new SMS both vibrates and turns on the device.
I don't run any of the apps you listed. Have you thought about upgrading your ROM?
MMMmmm ..... Interesting.
I've got the latest T-mobile uk ROM installed that was released a few days ago.
I wonder if there are any other users that have this same issue ?
Also does anyone know of any registry tweaks thsat might help.
Anyone ?
The problem wasn't fixed until AKU 2.3 (maybe 2.2, I don't remember).
In that case ....... What AKU version has T-mobile uk just released ?

I believe it's 2.2, but not sure..I can check for you when I get home and let you know.
Not sure what they released but you can check yourself by going to settings>system>about and looking at the build info. Mine says 14955.2.3.0. The 2.3.0 bit at the end indicates that you have Aku 2.3
T-mobile UK - AKU
The latest T-Mobile UK - Build is 14847.2.0.0
AKU 2.0 - they are a little behind....
but it is certainly a stable build (for me anyway)
Charlie Grillo
Yep, mines 14847.2.0.0 and T-mobile UK took for EVER to release this update, So the gits will prob take another few years to release any other update.
I might have to look at other ROMS. Any suggestions ?

We have noted some strange locking up of our Xda II's over on the MTekk forums requiring a hard reset. We have a number of threads running at the moment but the main one is here.
I have been in touch with Spb about this and they inform me it is actually an HTC and MS issue. Below is their email response.
Hello David,
We do our best to fix this problem ASAP. We work hard with HTC and
Microsoft now on this problem.
But this problem occurs not only with Spb Pocket Plus but with other
programs too.
We have feedback from HTC and Microsoft about that (sorry, I cannot
disclosure more
details since it is information obtained from our partners).
So I am not sure we will be able to fix it in Spb Pocket Plus - probably
HTC will fix it in their ROM.
Spb Pocket Plus does not use any undocumented functions that can cause
such behavior.
Probably we will disable running Spb Pocket Plus on these devices at all
until HTC fixes this bug in ROM
Pocket Plus 1.x is not available online now but I can send it to you if you want via e-mail.
If you bought Pocket Plus 2.x and can't use it, you can always ask for refund.
If you have any questions, please, don't hesitate to contact me.

It appears as though this issue could also be happening with version 1 of Pocket Plus on the 1.66 ROM (and some 1.72 ROM's too).
Thought you guys might like to know. Generally I find Spb products to be good, but it appears as though Spb are being blamed for this issue. I think this email help point the finger in the right direction.

Hi djwhyte
This is some strange stuff as I've been running Pocket Plus 2.0 for a few months and have recently installed 2.1 (just for the hell of it I think its only a VGA update from what I can see)... but have not had any problems on my XDA II before, hear are my details of my device if this helps:
ROM Version: 1.66.00WWE
ROM Date: 02/20/04
Radio Version: 1.08.00
Protocol Version: 1337.18
ExtROM Version: 1.66.165
The only thing I could think that I MIGHT be doing diferent is that I do not use the today screen pluging (I use all other features like repeating allarms and task mannager!) At the begining I did use the today screen and do not recall any problems as well I've taken it off because my today screen was getting to cluttered with other software I am running.
Not sure if this is going to help you but have to tired installing Pocket Plus with NO other applications installed after a hard reset? It might be a conflict with other software or even a totaly other product causing the problem? Not sure hope this can help you!
Regards
Fudge!
Pocket Plus 2 is installed in my wife's XDA2 with 1.66rom. its almost 3 weeks now and so far no problem. my XDA2's rom is only 1.60.
Hey thanks for info guys.
I will have to try without the today screen pluggin and see if makes any difference.
Boybi, your wifes Xda II which is on the 1.66 ROM, does it have the today screen plugin enabled?
Dave
is the Today Plugin the one where you can put battery and memory bars, and put some icons? if yes, then its enabled.
i too am having problems with the spb pocket plus v2.1 using xda2 with 1.66WWE ROM version. i get hang ups and the unit would do a hard reset. good thing i always do a backup of the contacts and appointments!
aside from Pocket Plus, what other Today Plugins can you guys recommend?
I was wondering what was the lockup caused by. I uninstalled the SPB GPRS and SPB Pocket Plus and now it's ok. No more lockup. I had to hard reset, but couldn't initial find the problem until the trial expired, weird. I guess that's why I bought it.
I find GPRS monitor is OK!!
I have a feeling the Today plugin is the cause as I have had no such crashes since I installed it again with the today screen disabled. What part of it I don't know though.
Boybi, which icons, sliders does your wife have enabled on the plugin?
One thing to note on this, is that SPB update their software silently and don't tell ya about it.
So get the latest build of PocketPlus and try again.
Cheers
my wife's XDA2 just locked-up today! can't turn it on even using soft reset. so i think its really the Pocket Plus! now i disabled the today plugin.
Ooooh Sorry Boybi, I hope I didn't curse you but that sounds like the lockup.
I have been running sweetly for three days without the Today screen plugin for PP2. How long did your wife have the Today screen showing before it locked up? Days? Weeks?
Cheers,
Dave
Possible LOCKUP?
DJWHYTE,
im using pocket plus ver 2.1 on a 1.66 ROM XDA II, just installed it 24 hours ago, no problems so far.
All featured ITEMS enabled, Today Plug-in, File Explorer enhancements, Pocket IE enhancement, Looping Alarm, etc..
Im very disturbed by what I just read in this thread, although I have experienced 1 LOCKUP, it happened while SPB Pocket Plus was NOT YET installed.
Can anyone please advise HOW LONG was the average time FROM installation of pocket plus DID the LOCKUP occur? and what your POCKET PLUS version and ROM versions are?
Certainly would put most of us at ease.
Cheers

With my previous 1.66ITA it worked for about 3 months without troubles (PP 2.0 first and 2.1 later) .
After the upgrade to 1.72.04ITA no chance to install it anymore; it freezes and the only way out is hard resetting. :evil:
Spb team says that they are working on it... hope so, otherwise I will claim for my money back. :evil: :evil:
My experience up to now is that PP is white or black: it works or not, at all. In your case it works, so I would not worry too much... :roll:

Good, now I can sleep better knowing my XDA 2 will still turn on tomorrow when I wake up. Thanks DAVE.
Any other observations out there?
I may DREAM better if there are, hehehe.
my wife's 1.66rom XDA2 runs with PP2.1 for 2 weeks without any problems until yesterday.
maybe other apps?
boybi,
pre,
maybe another app caused the lockup? you havent installed anything new in those two weeks? may i please know what your apps are?
mine are:
1. pocket plus 2.1
2. my calendar
3. pocket zen
4. flash player activeX
5. morphgear
6. calendar plus
7. pocket translator
8. pencil box
9. calc98 and aidem calc
10. betaplayer
11. SB check notifications.
12. vbirthday
just want to know for comparison AND app finger-pointing.
thanks.
I too have had the problem
Ever since I installed the Spb PocketPlus ver 1.x and onward I have had that problem. It occurs rarely but often enough to annoy me (1-2 times/month). It seems to make no difference if I disable the Today screen. I have removed it now. I don't have much other software on it, except for Destinator 3 and a painting program. I won't return to PocketPlus until the issue is solved.

The italian localized 2.1 will not work on the 1.72 ROM, to make it works you need to install the 2.0 and after it the 2.1.
No problems at all

the memory card i have ordered for my wife's XDA2 just arrived that's why i haven't installed a lot of programs in her unit.
This really strange, clocks went back on Sunday(located in UK)...my imate JAM dutifully notified me of this and adjusted my clock....my JASJAR did nothing, still on old time....all settings, Regional & Time, the same....even more peculiar, I then Activesync via Bluetooth to my PC (PC auto updates daylight savings so is on right time), synchronises fine but no time change on the JASJAR....I check settings on Activesync and "Synchronize Pocket PC Date and time upon connection" is TICKED!! Is there a setting on WM5 to tick adjust for daylight savings time? Can't find it anywhere. Anyone else had this?
Yep, same on my Exec. Seems like a glitch in WM5
my jasjar changed automatically, no problems here at all.
Flubster
Nope, mine didn't update the time 'til I plugged it into my laptop at 8am this morning (I use a slightly more pocketable phone at weekends!)
No problems for me either with my O2 Exec. Updated overnight on Sunday morning. Turned it on at 8am and there was a notification on the Today screen telling me it had changed. Didn't need to sync it.
My XDA exec didn't as well. My BA did anyway

Didn't work on my Exec. Standard out of the box ROM.
My JasJar automatically updated with no problems (by itself, not connected to the PC.) I'm still on the standard out of the box ROM.
Not a universal but my BA with WM5 updated ok in the US
My Exec didn't update either- anyone smart enough to work out why some have and some haven't?

Could it have something to do with what you have regional settings set to?
My Exec updated itself. Regional settings set to "English (United Kingdom)".

At the moment after a recent hard reset, the only things I've got installed on my JJ are SPB Diary, TCPMP, and Resco Explorer (+ftp & regedit).
I'm not at all bothered by this, 'cause as I said earlier, it changed as soon as I sync-ed at home, but I am mildly interested as to why it didn't adjust itself automatically. (I've probably unticked a box somewhere, knowing me?)
At least here in Finland Qtek released an official ROM 1.6.7.1 WWE. What are situation for other brands? and countries?

Some bugs/issues noted sofar on my Qtek 9100:
- Backlight goes dark sometimes (with certain settings) in standby. (HIGH)
- WLAN turns off after a reboot.
- Process gwes crash the device and what to send an error report. Works fine with error reporting off. (HIGH)
- When keys are locked and a call is answered, then Phone application is unable to close without releasing key lock.
- Keyboard backlight does not stay on long enough and there is no way to adjust this.
- Sound quality using built-in hands free is bad.

Just bought my HTC HD in Thailand, shipped from Hong Kong with Italian manuals however the rom is 1.19.831.0 and rom date 11/27/08. Forgive me if this isn't news, I haven't seen anything other than 1.14!
After the diamond i am very impressed. Upgrades to all on screen menus but particularly the quick dialing menu on the people screen makes it almost worth using over the normal phone menu. Someone's obviously been listening to the niggles that were a barrier to immersion with previous HTC products...
No flash out the box tho despite thumb nails and previews showing on certain sites and the battery doesn't look like its as good as has been mentioned but on the whole very pleased after 4 hours play.
Amerisoft is slower than Super, QMC and SPB mobile DVD! I'm weeping for my lost childhood

radio version is 1.09.25.14 protocol 52.49a.25.26U
I don't have this info tab to find build however in the "about" i have CE OS 5.2.20764 build 20764.1.4.3
ROm 1.19.831.0 (25581) WWE
I don't know what that all signifies but the fact that when i hang up from a call from an unknown number and it offers me the ability to save to an existing contact (ala most new phones), thus saving the tedium of copy and pasting... i like!
Battery life should improve after a few charging cycles.
I really like to know what has been fixed in v1.19 ROM.
Please can you do a QWERTY test and type really fast in office word and see you get the few seconds delay/lag where nothing responds. This may be fixed in your ROM version?
why is this ROM not available for d/l on the HTC website ??
h, i'm a rom neewbie but i was wondering why the updated rom isn't a 15 something and jumped from 14 to 19 ......? i oftenly go in thailand and you know you can find a lot of really well made fake devices with WM running on them ..... i will ask a friens to check it in Bangkok
interesting
Has anybody noticed that the protocol version !!!
This rom has radio version 1.09.25.14 protocol 52.49a.25.26U
Mine is 52.49a.25.26W
Last time I went to school W came after U.
my Rom 1.14 has radio version 1.09.25.14 protocol 52.49a.25.26U
I'm confused
I bought my HD at Hong Kong a week ago and I got
1.18.832.2 (23358) CHT
11/18/08
1.09.25.14
52.49a.25.26U
and quote from www.htc.com
"Note: This hot fix can only be installed in ROM version less than 1.19.xxx.x. To check your ROM version, tap Start > "
there should be a 1.19.xxx.x. ROM verson

the major fix was the system response time.
however, if someone with 1.19 rom can check the build # of the Opera browser, it would be good. I have heard rumours that we (end customers) can only get updates to Opera browser from HTC, because for the time being it is very platform specific. ie. if you download the latest build from opera website, it will not fully work with touch HD (looks very very ugly with squished menus and such)

Hi Guys
This is my first foray into smartphone usage and am a little dissapointed with my choice of the HTC Mini HD. Here are my problems and hopefully you might have a solution.
1. When I recieve a text message and I see this on my home screen, I then press on the message to go to reply mode and then when I start texting a reply the message I was sent turns black and i cant see what im typing anymore. I then have to get rid of the keyboard and select in what I had been typing and then i can carry on and see what I am typing. This is such and annoying bug.
2. Sometimes the phone seems slow to respond. I click a menu and there is a slight delay and then it works. Is this a general windows is crap issue?
3. Is there a way to alter the default snooze time from 5 mins?
I hope you can help me out.
Oh this is an unlocked UK unbranded phone with this ROM etc
ROM = 1.36.401.1 (94538)
ROM Date = 05/23/10
OS version = 5.2.23103
Manilla version = 2.5.20131825.3

It is right, go with the ROM first and then the rest. Some of these updates you need to copy to the SD card and then install them (time, peep, audio).
