touchflo status?

guys,
i know this question might be annoying already.
but i kept on wondering if there is anybody at all working on a proper implementation of the touchflo for the hermes.
is it possible to include all its functionality at all? i mean not just the cube navigation, but the touchflo navigation on any page of the interface (eg scrolling via finger input in adress list)...
and if somebody is working on it, whats the status, what are the probs?
can't wait to have that feature on my hermes.
regards,
trial

You only needed to ask once.
Anyway, here it is again...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328260

Yota phone on Blackstone - no ringtone

Hi, I have been a member here for about 1 month now and after much browsing, searching and lots and lots of reading I think it is time for my first post to ask for help . I have searched for and found 2 previous threads which spoke about this issue, but I never saw any definite answer in these threads on how to solve the problem (as far as I could see anyway). As both of these posts have since been closed, I have no other option than to start a new thread .
I am currently running Dutty's 3.6 (Manila 2.1) ROM and have loaded the YOTA phone app, as I love the black look, which blends in so much better than the Topaz dialer. The problem however is that whenever I receive a call, the phone merely vibrates but does not ring at all (and yes I have checked the settings to ensure it is set to ring). If I uninstall Yota, the ringtone plays again, re-install Yota and again no ringtone .)
Please, I know there where some other members with this problem - if you have manged to solve this, or if anyone else has any other ideas on how to fix this I will be very grateful.

[REF]HTC Official Hotfix Roll-up Thread
You can find links to threads discussing about official HTC Hotfixes for the HD2 here. Hopefully this will avoid several threads on the same topic and will save you some time in finding information.
Update for HTC HD2 - Digital Picture Enhancement
Update for HTC HD2 - SMS Function Update
Update for HTC HD2 - SD Card Storage Capacity
Update for HTC HD2 - Calendar View
Update for HTC HD2 - Update for CSL services HK
Update for HTC HD2 - SIM Contacts - a Radio update to 2.06.51.07 in reality.
Update for HTC HD2 - Music Stability

Update!
@all: I intended for this thread to be a general overview for users to easily move around the ROM forum (possibly reduce the amount of questions and time to find the thread you were looking for). I have not been around for a while and find the HD2 forum somewhat cluttered.
I'm looking for some input to help make this forum a little easier on the eyes. I need your help in this, but I also need you to be critical about it. I need a list of threads that should not be forgotten and should be easy to find for novice users. The kind of threads I'm looking for are the ones that contain information that won't be outdated any time soon.
Also I would like to have some feedback about the way it's setup now and should be setup. I will be closing this thread again once it's updated.
Sincerely,
12aon

Guys? Is everybody to much habituated to this thread...

Great idea in theory, and yes I agree the forum is messy. I guess the links to note are the obvious ones, but then they are already stickies in any case - these being the mskip Flashing Tutorial, *'s video tutorial, Task29 and HSPL/SSPL. Stock ROM and Radio links are also good. There is some key information needed also like "do not use a x.xx.51.xx radio for the TMOUS 1024 device or you will brick your phone". Wiki's are also great initially, but they seem to die down and don't get maintained well in my experience. Most noob's also seem to miss them.
It seems however that many users here prefer to simply start a new thread rather than search, read and then post IN THE MOST RELEVANT THREAD. No they choose to start a new one even though 5 separate threads asking the same question already exist. This mess exacerbates the whole situation as due to the clutter it's easier to post a new thread.
I must admit though, coming from the HD forum, the Leo users seem to be a lot lazier.

Hi Guys, Could anyone by kind enough to tell me what chef cooks Leo roms including E-reader tab from latest TMOUS together with TV tab ? If such thing does not exist, at least one chef that cooks with e-reader tab... NRG sstopped doing so... sadly...
Cheers. Thanks in advance..

Quietly Brilliant ROM Fixes

Is it just me or do any of you noticed how vague the descriptions for the camera, sd card and sms fix are? I mean there is nothing specific about what exactly is fixed. As an example:
Update for HTC HD2 SD Card Storage Capacity
This update for HTC HD2 further extends support of the SD Storage Capability. Taking pictures with your 5 Megapixel lens and dual LED flash can only truly be appreciated at the maximum quality, and now with this update, you will be able to appreciate how much more you can store in your 8GB or more SD Card.
What does that mean? More efficient compression of photos, or support for bigger cards eg 32GB? I tested before and after shots and do not see a decrease in files sizes of photos taken so your guess is as good as mine.
Then this:
Update for HTC HD2 – SMS Function Update
This update for HTC HD2 messaging lets you reach out to your friends and family with instant notifications. Keeping in touch has always been very important, and this update delivers just that: fast and reliable SMS messaging.
Is it a fix for the stuck sms in outbox? Again it does not state exactly what was fixed. Is it because HTC does not want to admit to bugs? Then why do we need these updates?
I prefer straight-to-the-point logs of what exactly these update does. I would have skipped the sms update if I knew it only fixes the stuck sms as I do not have that problem so why fix something that is not broken.
Maybe I am not brilliant enough to read what's on HTC's mind with these vague updates. Quietly Brilliant indeed.

any complaints/hatred , please direct to HTC .

I am SO with you on this. Very annoying!
Release notes? In general, a proper description of a bug fix should not require use of drivel like "keeping in touch has always been very important" - nor is it written by the marketing department.
EDIT: You'll be happy to know HTC just posted a new fix for the calendar view (though the download link is currently broken). Another meaningful description!
Update for HTC HD2 Calendar View
This update for HTC HD2 expands the dynamic nature of the Calendar application. Whether your week starts on Monday or Sunday, allowing you to view appointments occurring tomorrow, next week, or even next month.

I have some theories on what it might fix, but you'll get no clues from the description...

Ahhh... The great "everything is good, even if some things are terrible" methodology of HTC.

I'm starting to think that they take one week to write the actual bug fix, and two weeks to write the description that goes along with it.

Link for calendar view doesnt work for me...when I press download new site opens saying that the page doesnt exist...

Not so sure about how quietly brilliant the "fixes" are.
SMS fix: Removes auto-lock and some email capability
Camera fix: Causes phone to freeze
Perhaps there is something wrong with my phone. I'm using the most up-to-date HTC rom as well.

You got the exact same "Page not found..." error earlier this month when HTC first listed the 1.48 ROM on the downloads page for the HD2. The download was listed a day or two before the actual file was available...

Not on the HTC website any more, and neither is the 1.48 ROM?!

No hatred. Just wanted to see if I am alone in feeling that HTC is being vague with their fixes and I have directed this to HTC so I will feedback to the forum if there are any response from them.
As for getting more info from this forum, I think it would not have been necessary if HTC had made clear what was exactly fixed, because this forum can only provide educated guesses on what HTC did with the updates. Nothing like hearing it from the horses mouth.

It is still there if you follow the link in Post #3. I just downloaded it and it says this is applicable for ALL Roms. I wonder why it was removed from the main site. This is exactly what I mean. The Read Me is so vague I am wondering if I should apply the patch and since it was removed, are ther problems with it... hmmm.

after the SD update my i can now store 9862, before it was 5028

Yeah i've made this point in other threads elsewhere in the forum. The hotfix descriptions are infuriating. HTC should be explicit about what the fix is supposed to actually fix. Otherwise, how is the user-base supposed to assess the effectiveness of the patch? Descriptions for these updates should not be written like sales pitches; we've already bought the device! They should be written in a functional, technical way, detailing precisely what has changed. I actually find this issue far more frustrating than the bugs themselves. It's patronising to customers, and unprofessional.

It seems to have fixed the capitalisation issue. What it has not done is addressed the facts that (1) it won't let you start typing until it's loaded all the messages between you and that person which takes ages if you have more than about 20 messages between you, and (2) that it randomly goes over to number mode completely unprompted and the only way to type letters is to go landscape full QWERTY.
They could do with sorting this out.

The new Forum GUI doesn't work on HD2

First of all: I like this forum, it is really a good place to find and exchange informations. Congratulations to the team!
But the new layout/GUI of the forum sucks! At least, when you try to do it with your mobile device.
Usually I go with my HD2 in the forum. Normally through a Post, which I have received through the RSS Feed. If I'm interested in the thread, I subscribe to it.
But with the new layout it is not possible to click and open the thread tools. Just nothing happens.
And especially for a forum which is about mobile devices, this is an absolute NoGO!
Some technical details - I use
- HTC HD2
- StockROM 1.66.407.1
- Opera Mobile 10
- CHT 1.8
Would be really good, if anyone could find the bug.

Hi,
when i use my HD2 with Wifi, i can read the board. It needs some time to load, but it is possible.
But when i'm on the way and try to load it over GPRS or UMTS (if available), it loads only some little parts and then stops. So i can maybe read the first one or two postings of a thread.
With the "old" layout all was fine and easy. So i think, the new layout is not really mobile-campatible.
For the users it should be possible to change the layout between the currently and a mobile-friendly modus.
Greetings
Hardy

I actually contacted the Owners/Mods about this, the reply was, in a nutshell, "A mobile version is on the list, but a lot of stuff going on right now, so it is not a priority" ...
I am sure they will get to it at some point, but I did see somewhere a way to switch back to the old view ... hmmm will have to look for that again ...
EDIT: under http://forum.xda-developers.com/profile.php?do=editoptions , the very last option choose the custom skin ... it is the old version ...

Hmm. I can't recall having any issues with the new skin on opera 9.7.

Running also great here on Opera 9.7 .

I don't read it much on my HD2, mostly on the PC. One thing I hate though is the threads I've replied in don't show up as so when there's new post even though there's suppose to be a little down arrow in the thread icon. The icon does show if there are no new post though.
