Is there a way to get an icon in the statusbar when my bt headset is connected? I know its possible, and I'm not sure if my phone is supposed to have it or not.

I have not seen anything in the stock OS/software. You have to go to the control panel and see what is connected in the bluetooth settings.
I figured it should be possible. Ive seen it on an AT&T 8125. I'll keep searching...
I used to have it on my treo 700w with WM5.0 I liked seeing it there, but on my 6800 it only displays it in the phone screen. Let us know if you do find anything out about it.

I just want to warn everyone the 2003 rom has many problem, since it is an internal development version. Here is the bugs I found right now.
1.Maybe it's not a "BUG". It miss the Wireless Modem which many people asked for a long time.
2.I tried Windows Media Player and Pocket Music 1.5, both can't turn off the display, which means you have to leave the display on when you listen the music. If any one can turn off the display , please tell us, may be I got some software conflicted.
3. 2 "Power" Logo on the setting menu, but the have different content. It looks like one is the new power setting tab, but it didn't provided some old fuction in the old power setting tab, so O2 kept the old one.
4. The SIM Contacts (Sim utility provided by PPC 2003) is horrible.It has NO fuction except copy the SIM card address to the phone.
5. YOU MUST NOT install Batterypack 2003 on the phone. It looks like working after you install, but your machine will never boot up after a soft-reset except hardreset the phone. (It is PPC 2003 / Battery Pack 2003 problem, not O2 / HTC's fault).
6. You will never know if the current signal support GPRS or not. It will not display the G logo in the "signal bubble".
Please add the list if you got any problem with the new rom.
If the bug I listed can't stop you install the new rom, go ahead :twisted: .
Moreover, it's not an official / final version rom, if you want stable rom, stay with XDA SE 1.1 rom.
Sorry for my horrible english~

Not a bug. it was a feature added by xda-developers.

No, it was added in the new ROMs by Qtek and O2. Whether it's a Microsoft or HTC tool I don't know, but it's definitely not ours...
XDA developer Peter Poelman,
didn't know that. i thought it was urs.
PPC 2003
Hi all
Only autentization to VPN over cetificates is good feature for me.
Another features :?
XDA-dev ROM 1.1 is best solution
It seems the "screen toggle" bug (can't switch off the screen probelm) can be fixed by install the PocketMusic 2.0 Bundle plus the 2.0_4_3 fix.
I can see a hotkey to turrn off display with 2.0 version.
Moreover, the "auto turn off display" fuction still works on the PocketMusic 1.5 Bundle version, and 2.0 too.
It's so strange the PocketMusic 2.0 works but WMP 9.0 doesn't work.
I'm happy with the PPC2003 now. If we have to wait to long beforce the official release, will XDA-Developer release an extra SE version based on the current version of PPC2003?
It still suffers fron some sms issues, i cant get a delivery receipt, and also the time sent stamp is actually the time received.
The auto config does not work, so as a result i can't get gprs working...
(Anyone know the settings for o2 uk ?)
All in all though a good upgrade !!
i loaded the 2003 rom and only have minor issues.
1. when connecting the network says voicestream instead of t-mobile.
2. connection seems slower even with the accelerator proxy turned on. the connection used to be as high as 40k according to spb gprs monitor. now i haven't seen it break 20k.
Unit no longer powers-on when placed in sync cradle; In order to sync the unit I now have to either (a) make sure unit is turned-on before placing it into cradle, or (b) place powered-off unit in cradle, then turn power on.
Not a major issue, but certainly a back-step in functionality. Anyone else notice this?
I'm using a TMobile XDA with updated ATT radio stack and PPC2003.
To Dondi :
I have your issue too, but I didn't think it is a problem for me, since I hate the machine suddenly power on itself when I am charging it.
i guess it s even better for the screen not to be lighted all the time when plugged on the cradle
Hey all. I just installed WM2003 PE. It looks and feels great. I only have the following comments:
I have installed the ROM on my Qtek 1010.
1. I can't seem to see any MIDI ringtone support on this one (probably because it's not a final release)
2. I'm still running on my old Radio Version 3.23 and my GPRS resumes connection seamlessly after calls - which is great.
3. I've read somewhere that applications will be visible on the 'taskbar' when running, but do not get this functionality also. No worries on this though, because 'Switch' works fine with WM2003.
4. Still no ability to add custom Operator Logos.
5. Hooray for the 'Busy' tone and indication!
SPB GPRS Monitor works fine with 2003. I also wanted to know from the rest of you guys: Do you have to manually initiate GPRS connectivity after a soft-reset? Or does it pick up your default connection and auto-connect?
To killercheung and Cyberb0b: You've given me a new perspective on the XDA not automatically switching on when placed in the cradle in the off state -- I appreciate the benefits you pointed out.
Also, I did notice that when I initially loaded the Ozone beta (prior to upgrading radio stack) the GPRS symbol was being displayed regularlyand I had no problem connecting with GPRS and getting decent performance (> 20 Kbps). However, after I convinced myself to "go all the way" and also perform the Radio Stack update, I now rarely see the GPRS symbol, and GPRS perfirmance has dropped to the 1Kbps level.
Now I wonder if Ozone also updated the radio (which I perhaps subsequently "downgraded" by loading the ATT RSU). Can anyone shed some light on this?
for what i ve seen Ozone does not modifiy the radio stack, you have to upgrade it yourself useing for exemple the O2 upgrade version 4.21.
As far as i m concern using GPRS in France with Orange as operator with SE 1.1 or with ozone i have the same brandwith capacity depending on the network trafic and my position, between 10 and 30 Kbps, i use SPB GPRS manager to monitor my connexion 24/7 and see what is my data consumption day by day (it also allow me to shut GPRS off without switching the phone off).
by now using ppc2003 for about a week, i have no gprs shut down, except going out of coverage area, we poor french are not full gprs anywhere, but it works pretty good in cities.
on thing i ve notices that i guess is significant :
however it is said that Gprs connexion isn t dropped any more when an incoming CSD call start, that is true but the transmissions are stopped.
I mean i can not send or recieve data while talking on the phone line. But this is not due to the software i guess it is due to the number of channels aviable on the device usually it s 4 + 1 or 4 + 2
whereas phones like SE P800 have 6 + 4 channels allowing the to really exchange data while using CSD channel.
But nevertheless it is a good upgrade cause i do not have to kill my irc session while talking on the phone (just have to hang up fast before the irc timesout ) ).
Mmmm - just noticed this one...
My little square G for GPRS symbol no longer STAYS on the status bar at the top.
It appears as I soft reset, and find a network, but then disapears.
If I click my signal bar gauge however, the G symbol is shown there.
I know they have changed the Signal Status notification box to list Airline mode now, instead of Wireless off...
So is this another new change, or are the rest of you getting the G to stay on?
I ask, because I actually use my XDA2 on Orange UK, unlocked, but before the Upgrade last night, I still got a solid G stay on with Orange.
Thoughts or comments anyone?
I've actually never seen the "G" stay on the bar with mine, and have been thru several different roms, Qtek, I-mate, T-mobile.
It does exactly as you describe. Personally I don't need to see it all the time.
me too, ever since it never stayed on just popped up to indicate that you've connected to gprs but goes away after a while (started with a 1.52.00 rom)
Same goes for me. I always see the G appear at a start up but never have had the G remain on the screen for more than a few seconds.
On my unit after the Aisa update I can confirm the change in wording to "Turn on flight mode" from "Turn wireless off"
Ed
Aha...
I guess I have already sussed it, but can you guys confirm what type of devices and ROM's you had/have.
As i am certain as can be that my XDA2 USED to keep the G symbol on permanent, just like my SmartPhone Orange E200 does now.
But now, after the new UK ROM update, it doesn't stay on.
Now that I know this is by design, and that the initial appearance is to assure you you have a GPRS signal, and that you can check it any time by tapping on the signla bar, I have to say i much prefer this new method of informing you.
I just wanted to check it wasn't an error first - but I can happily send and receive MMS so it must be working fine.
my xda1 with 2002(org rom) dident keep the icon
my xda1 with 2003 dident keep the icon
and my
xda2 (qtek2020)(org rom) dont keep the icon
I just purchased a HTC Tytn (unbranded). I have so many questions and can't seem to find the answers. First, does anyone know a program that will update the clock with the network without doing the At&t rom update. Second, Will it hurt to do the at&t update to my phone or will I loose the voicedial function and 2nd video cam ect. Is the ms voicedial ver 1.6 worth it. So many more I'll make another thread later. By the way thanks for the forum. You all are great and I hope to learn alot.
I am on cing/att and using an unbranded tytn... i have also flashed the official att rom on it (yes, its wm5, but i needed PTT)... anyway, smartdial is there, but you will lose video calling (which att dont support anyway) but the fron cam will still function, i used atek software's cool camera to prove the drivers were still on the phone and working.. and i dont use MS VC 1.6 so i cant answer that one...
Tytn vs 8525
Shogun, Thanks for the info. I don't need the PTT. I do like the auto update feature for the clock using the network though. So far I like the phone, (I'm just starting to get used to it. Can you remap the PTT. I will start doing a lot of international flying soon and needed the unbranded phone. Does the At&t service determine the video or can 2 people with a tytn and a 3g signal just start video calling? So many questions!

Not sure about the auto-update feature and working on other roms... but they should support it..
The PTT can be remapped, use a different rom, or search for sleuth's PTT fix.
The video calling is dependant on the dialer on the phone (in the rom, or installable otherwise), it requires a certain dpadmenu.dll in order to work, but if your ATT its not going to work anyway.. it is provider dependant.. and 3G dependant
I have a Samsung i900 Omnia and have a small issue. When I turn on the device the radio does not automatically connect to T-Mobile's EDGE network, left-most radio indicator displays as if not connected and the right-most indicator shows a G. I tried using GB Soft Tweak to set the radio to connect on starting the radio but that doesnt work. Can anyone advise on what to change, I presume in the registry or else where? Thanks.
Exact Problem..
i Have the same problem..
and my other problem is SMALL MMS pictures.. there is a FIX for it on HTC Phones..but i cant find anything for the Samsung Omnia...

Being a Windows Mobile device, most of the stuff that works on HTC phones should work on the Omnia (ROMS excepted).
Worth a try, especially the Network Wizard to sort out your MMS issues.
I obtained an Orange Touch 3G as an upgrade last week and there appears to be no way to adjust the wireless power on this verison of the phone. Does anybody know how to do this? There is no icon for this under the settings tab.
my girlfriend got the same phone last thursday, ive been working ever since to get the thing as close to how HTC intended as possible, orange have made a complete mess of the phone. The biggest problem is that stupid unique thing theyve put in place of the usual wifi settings. if anyone know of a way to get back to the stock HTC Comm Manager without flashing a rom it would be much appreciated.
mjashdown, if you dont like oranges version of touchflo try the iolite version in this thread , its early days but it seem to be running fine on her 3G, it also adds the footprints tab, gets rid of the orange world and replaces it with the standard internet tab and the horrible orange/brown theme is replaced with the standard blue one. like i said its early days but its running perfectly so far.
Orange Workaround?
I have complained to Orange and they are due to call me back today with a workaround for this problem.
Orange Workaround
Had a call back from Orange and the workaround was have a look on the HTC website and see if there is anything to help.
at least they phoned back,thats more than i would have expected. well phone u back it usually just a way for them to get you off the line. as for the advice,i dont know why someone wasted their time to call you back.the problem is not htcs,its orange & their crapware that have caused it.
ive searched all through xda for the stock comm manager but all i can find are themes.
Can't you just set the wlan power by:
Start -> Settings (or Control Panel or whatever) -> Connections -> WLAN -> Energy-Mode
(Translated from german phone)
unfortunaitly not, orange uk have completey replaced the standard wifi settings menus with something they call Unique. i dont know the reasons for this change but its completely useless and doesnt allow any useful settings to be changed.
only thing you can do is flash phone to another rom, I have just done that with mine and it's great, orginal htc rom is much better and faster totaly recomend doing it,
the orange unique is quite a clever thing from orange but unfortunatly they have forced it on the phone so if you don't have the service from orange it's totaly pointless and gets in the way, the unique manager is why i flashed the phone, I could cope with other things they have done but that was a step too far.
cheers
Tom
The "service" you refer to is Unique phone...it's a way of using your Orange phone over a broadband connection if you have bad coverage at home. I use it as I can't get any mobile signal where I live...from any network! The person I spoke to at Orange said there would be a fix coming soon to make the WIFI better on the Touch 3G. Hope this clears things up.
I was speaking to Orange Technical Support and they told me that there was nothing that could be done to change this and this was a feature of the phone. Was there any news about when this update will be available?
Sorry, no idea on when the fix will be availble. My one works fine, I was just having some other issues and I mentioned this problem and was told that one would be coming soon.
I think you problem can be only resolved with a new rom version..
And i don't think that Orange release a new one within the nearest time only to solve this "bug".. my guess...
If I where in your place i would flash it with the official htc rom.

seconded
unique blows big time
There is a way to access the power settings on the Orange branded Touch 3G:
1) Using File Explorer, navigate to the Windows directory on the device.
2) Look for a file called WLANSettings which is 73.4k in size.
3) Run the file and click the Power Mode tab.
4) Adjust the slider for better performance and click OK to exit.
I only discovered this today and am still testing to see if it makes my wi-fi connection more reliable. The "searching for networks" screen has a tendency to hang and I'm hoping this will improve things.
I'm holding onto the hope, however, that Orange will address this in an update and give us the stock HTC wi-fi options back.
Thanks!!!!
That is just what I was looking for! I have tried it and will see what effect that has.
