It's Christmastime so Im posting a topic on peace and love...
I was originally planning to post a topic on whether there's such an application for the Univ where you can schedule your SMS... I had this app on the P9 and surprised my friends by scheduling SMS to them to send at exactly 12midnight..Was planning to do this later for Christmas.. but works great on birthdays too.. I wish I had that for my Universal/Dopod too. Then it got me thinking that it was like comparing an ex-boyfriend to a current one.. and it lead to me this topic...
Whew, what an intro!
Anyway, I wanted to ask if you guys had the same "feeling" too. This forum is probably dominated by guys and I wanted to know if my feelings are way overboard already. You see, I "love" my dopod. It's a gift from my husband so I dont think it counts as an affair. But i treat it as a really special thing. I handle it really gently. I almost broke into tears when a drop of water almost seeped through the speaker. I look at it once in a while. I dream of wonderful apps to install into it. I always compare it with my old P9 (now being used by my hubby) and tell it, it's far more superior. Sometimes, i think it smiles at me when I say that.. haha. I spent hours looking for the right case. The first one I found was too hard, the other one, too snug. When I found the right case, I still didnt think it was the best for it but at least it could serve its purpose. It's the last thing I see when I go to sleep.. It stays on my left while my hubby's on my right at night. It's the one who wakes me up in the morning with a soft gentle voice. I smile whenever I open it. I just love it...
Scary huh? I think my hubby's the same way with his xbox and gamecube coz Prince of Persia is the last he sees at night.. haha.. We are one weird couple, arent we?
Anyway, Im rambling here.. just wanted to know if you had the same way for your universal.. and how do you "love" it?
And also if anyone could tell me if there was an SMS Scheduler for the universal, that would be great too!
Thanks!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Angelica, i think you just managed to alienate even a few of us freaks with your degree of devotion!
When I'm programming, i can't sleep for hours mulling over unresolved issues. when my better half is talking to me I find myself phasing out and wondering how to make a better today plugin or somesuch. it's getting scary... but i digress:
Universal - it's beautiful but I barely use it, because i'm always just developing for it, not using it... i haven't installed any customisations yet (except vjlumos). i use my magician as my phone.
however, universal is a beautuful multifunction device. love? hmm. maybe not. but certainly the occassional lust! damn htc have too many devices coming out to settle down as a one phone man
if anyone has a spare Atom (i know not htc) let me know.
re sms app, if you don't find one, let me know. i used to take good advantage of the p900 sms scheduler for sickies at work, so i could sleep in

Let me start with wishing you guys a merry christmas!
My craze for the Universal started back in Aug, was thinking of getting a PPCPE for my work since I'm always on the outfield and seldom in the office.Was at that time thinking of buying P50 until a good friend of mine send me a link of a picture of Black universal :shock:
I start talking about it ever since.Call the local telcos and even ask some of my connections on news when universal launching in my country.Was so excited when I got rumours that O2 launching the Black beauty!! Then came the sad news that O2 not launching any HTC product in Asia as HTC wants their Dopod subsidiary company to monopolise Asia.What a thud on my head! Duh! :evil:
Then I decided to get a set from UK. search everywhere try to contact long lost friends whom happen to study in UK am getting sleepless nights and even nightmares...yes can you believe this nightmares!! Then a good samartian whom I came in contact with in UK. He help me making my dream come true. I am really greaful to him.I'm now in possesion and a proud owner of an Exec. The set have not leave out of my sight since! Msn,surfing,documents editing, send/receive emai-l free WiFi is everywhere here...too many" friendly neighbour "if you know what I mean.
I would to say thanks to Vijay555 for making my dream come thru

We are kindred spirits!
My obsession started at about the same time too.. I was saddened by the news that O2 is not releasing it in Asia.. Emailed them too... and they said I ought to settle for Atom. But I was dead set on the Universal as it really was the "universe" for me. I had a picture on it on my pc and it was my constant piece of motivation at work.. haha..
Finally got it and it really was a great device. Sure there are some bugs but I have accepted the fact that there's no such thing as perfect in this universe, much more in my Universe. And I believe in Kaizen.... continued improvement... I too, would like to say my thanks to Vijay for continuing to improve this wonderful device. Hats off to you.. and to us lovesick puppies, let the love continue!
Its almost Xmas day. Merry Xmas everyone, and especially for you, Angelika. I'm smiling when I read your posting, we can even talk about 'love' even though this is a techie forum. That's really great!
I have the same 'feelings' so that I reply to this posting.
My first love was not the Universal though. It was the XDA, the very first generation. We call it T-Mobile PPC here in the US. Its the best device I ever had in my life, and that's true even until today. It works almost in every condition and places I go everyday: office, car, airport, home, and at night it sits right to my bed. And yes, it does wake up every morning.
Then I tempted to replace my XDA with a XDA mini. Because we don't have XDA in the US, then I got one branded as i-mate JAM. Main reason was because its smaller and has bluetooth. After using it for 2 weeks, I wrap it as a gift for my dear little brother.
Since then I had plenty of pictures of the coming Universal. Could not wait until it was released. I read the review about it a lot, I imagined holding it, etc. Then I was so sad when they said it might not even come to the US as no wireless provider wanted to carry it. etc etc.
I bought it when finally it was here available in the US though it was so expensive. Even though its 3G does not work here. Even though we could not use the video conferencing feature. Even though ppl reported many bugs. But I show it proudly to ppl and talk about it everytime somebody asks about it.
After using it for a while, I found it really delicate. So that when I go to work I would prefer to carry my XDA instead. And when I got home I will use my Universal. May be its not that delicate as I said, but the point is that, I do not want anything happen to my Universal while I'm bringing it around. Is that 'the love' I feel for it? Nah... I'm just kidding.
Btw, last nite I dropped my Universal when I was sitting in a restaurant, and on my way home, I kept telling myself not to carry it out anymore. I did not cry though when it dropped, but I did inspect the detail: no scrath, SD card was pulled out due to the bump, and I think the swivel mechanism is a bit lose after that. May be just my feelings.
It took me few years to reach the point when my XDA handles everything I need it to do perfectly in all scenarios: when I work, when I play, when I drive, when I travel, when I sleep, etc.
In the case of this Universal, though its a pretty device and far superior to my XDA, but today, it still cannot handle all scenarios correctly. For example, something really funny I have everynite, my Universal rings me up every 12 AM because there is an All Day Appointment I set for the next day in Outlook. My XDA never does that to me and they're both synced to the same PC. If I think the same as you, Angelika, then I should believe the Universal tries to get more attention from me. Ha ha ha..
I love my Universal but my first love still my XDA. And my XDA will remain the best device I ever have.
Universal + "Love, Peace" = :shock:
Universal + "Cute" = :shock:
Universal + "oh chooo chweeeet" = eiyuuuuuu :shock:
Universal + "its muh byabeeee" = :shock:
XDA-Dev + (Any of above) = holyyyyyy helllllll no wayyyyyyyy!!!
"I think my BULLDOG kicks some baddd ass!" - Yeahhhhh!!!
lol
Cheers and merry christmas to all of you
S
I love my Universal as much as I love sheep........
Merry Christmas everyone
I am missing my XDA Exec as it is having some repairs hopefully it will come back all fixed
Merry Christmas and lets hope we have a little more Peace on Earth in the New Year
argh2000: how are you getting on with it? everything ok? you still want some more to complete your harem of Universals!? will email next week. Love the forum btw, coming on very well.
i've got some new releases coming next week, and for all you VGA universal lovers, I had an idea for a new app you might find useful. news next week.
angelica, have you tried vga yet? and did you get your launcher sorted?
v
I keep it charging on my bedside at night with the screen turned on. Sometimes I leave it with a movie "The Incredibles" playing till the next morning.
Yay! It's Christmas day! Although I got my Christmas present days ago, Im still very happy about it..
Vijay555, Im really looking forward to your new release... Im sure it's a great app again. Ehem....Could it be the sms scheduler I've been searching for? Either way, I know it's still something great. Ive installed your PhoneTools and I have them in my Today Screen but I seldom use it coz I still need to edit the messages I send anyway... and it's still defaulted at +1234.. Cant seem to edit it.. I uninstalled Clauncher and just stuck with SPBPocket Plus...
cktlcmd, wow! What a way to maximize your universal.. Im tempted to try the same thing..
dreamtheater39, I know I'm so faaaaar away from the techies here in this forum and the universal isnt probably meant to incite any cute or mushy feeling from anybody, as it is cold as steel. But hey, cant help it.. i really get this mushy warm feeling whenever I look at it. Now, aint that some kind of passion too? I bet most of the techies here have the same passion for a new program or when deciphering a code. I guess to each his own... But hey, I bet I made you smile, didnt I?
Confucious, sheep? Then, are u a shepherd?
Merry Christmas Everybody!

Its great to see you love your universal soooo much! I wish my girlfriend did so too Instead she says 'you and your stupid gadget obsession' She's really sweet and shares my 'high', but i sometimes go overrrr boardddd (if you know what i mean!)
You all have fun & merry christmas once again
San
angelika: are you using ilauncher? go to my phonetools page on my site, and there's a subpage talking you through how to set up for that app.
i'm not working on the sms scheduler, but it's easy enough in principle. if you can't find one elsewhere i'll start, but next week will be busy with new release VJAccioPhone (that's not the _other_ idea had for VGA universal!)
hope you guys & gals are having a great xmas, best wishes from a very
wet but delightful italy...

Hey Vijay555, how is your holiday in Italy going?
My Exec is great, after upgrading the rom and plus some tweaking,it's flying :wink: well maybe I'm abit to exagerating.. but i love my set
Looking forward for your new applications
Holiday in Italy is going well but looking forward to being back in the uk now! the free time is giving me too much time to think of new apps.... too many to program, i'm going to have to start programming full time!
The universal app will hopefully improve life for VGA thumb usage.
Another for general WM5 use bringing back a missing feature hopefully. No more details till I know if I can do it. Hopefully shortly I'll also get my blog going to discuss ideas, progress and general programming & improving/hacking the PDA
VJAccioPhone is a program I finished coding just before the holiday that had kept me busy for quite a few late nights. I've not released it yet, but search the board to find my 'preannouncement'. Hopefully it'll be very useful for us idiots carrying $1000 phones! Proper news next week...

ps while waiting for a table in a restaurant in florence yesterday I met a guy who asked about my phone (magician) He'd just bought himself a wizard. i felt embarrassed sounding so passionate about the phones! Freaks we are, one and all....
Hi Vijay! Merry Christmas too! Wow, what a way to spend your vacation--- still thinking of wonderful apps to share with us..
Your new app looks promising! If only I had the technical know-how, I'd be helping out too.. but then, Im a mere mortal, waiting for blessings from techie gods like you..
Im not using ilauncher. I've stopped tinkering with you phone tools.. Needed to rest for a while to clean the slate and reflect on where I went wrong that I still couldnt make it work like I want to..
dreamtheater39: Good thing, that was a joke.. I was seriously thinking non-geeks like me are not allowed..
Merry Christmas!
Thought about this a bit more.
I have a "love"/"hate" relationship with my XDA Exec. The hardware is great (keyboard, sceeen and all the wireless connectivity) but the software seems incomplete and on some areas very poor quality (why memory leaks on a device in 2005? memory management is not bleeding edge tech!). I really think if HTC could double the user storage and available RAM this could have been a device well ahead of its time. It is the first of a new genertion of wireless PDA/mini tablets. I really want to carry around all my business data (2/3GB) on this device, but the need to reset it a few times a day doe snot make the Universal a reliable business tool. Perhaps we'll get some fixes in the new year.

i have the same problem too I have a qtek with stock rom loaded....and the free ram slowly drops....and after a couple hours of use, its down to 10-15megs of free ram even with all apps closed
Hope they'd fix it soon....!
Another quirk...using it as a phone is crazy without the bluetooth headset...you need two hands, and complete attention to pull off the "Answer the phone" maneuver :x
Otherwise, its just awesome

Hey guys,
Wow, never intended to be gone for what 6 months! Looks like I've got a lot of catching-up to do.
The Rom Kitchens have taken-off, awesome.
First there was Big Storage, then along came Bigger Storage (reclaim the Ext_Rom), fabulous.
WM6 is in full gear, what more can I say?
So I guess many here are wondering "What the heck happened to you?"...
The home purchase at the end of March when off without a hitch, got sick the week of the move so that was less than fun but we got in and I spent more than I had imagined furnished and stuff.
Then, just as I was getting ready to return to XDA, I found out that my Step Mom has cervical cancer. Cliff Notes: she was in a coma for 3 months due to an infection she caught at the hospital, we made a few trips to Savannah to be there for her, thought we were going to lose her several times, now she's stabile and recovering but it's a race to recovery so she can get back into chemo before it gets any worse.
I apologize to everyone who contacted me without response. I'll be around the board now but not a frequently as before.
Kyphur
Big welcome back - folks here have been asking about you. Sounds like you have had / are having a very difficult time. Glad the move went well but sorry to hear about your step Mom.
Cheers
Mike
KYPHUR!
It's great to have you back with us. I'm really sorry to hear about the poor health your step mom was/is in. I hope the best for her.
Well, you've missed a good bit here. Some great, some not so great.
But, catching up shouldn't be too hard for you. It's just good to have you back onboard.
Kyphur!
Welcome back. Admired your very early work on WM6. Convinced me to finally go with a cooked rom. There's been a lot of chatter on here -- didn't know what happened to you. But am sure as hell glad to see you come back. Now get crackin on a pre-release of WM7!
Anyways -- prayers for step mum. Here's to a speedy, full recovery!
Welcome back...
Back just in time for the Kaiser. Are you getting one?
all the best to the family, and welcome back
Best wishes for ur stepmom from Holland
Welcome back man, best wishes to the family
I've got to keep the Hermes for at least 1 year (so through Feb 2008) before I can upgrade again! Besides, we only just got these things running up to speed!

I just wanted to post a big Thank You to everyone who helps on here.
Thanks to much searching and some patient people answering my questions I happily flashed my rom and was running about merrily with my Vario II running WM6.1 and it was ace.
... Till some Bar Steward stole it out of the glove box of my mates car
I am not covered under my own insurance and my mate is having problems claiming through his own... so i've stumped up my own cash and gone for the O2 XDA Serra... so i'm off to swot up on what i can do to that
Wish me luck.
And Thanks again for all the help
Wow dude, that sucks!
I know under certain policies, as long as you had the phone out of sight, they'll cover it, even moreso if the glove box was locked!
Sorry, deal with Mobile Phone claims all day everyday!
Guys let's give ourselves a break! Everyday we try to make our phones work better and faster. Searching for ROMS, RADIOs, Themes, ICONs, APPs and everything that is available out there and trying them out one by one. "Even soldiers at war know when to sleep.." This time let's share some interesting, funny, scary or any story that you can share. Let's talk about our stories with our HTC HD2s!
Let's try to have some fun while reading different stories between you and your beloved HTC HD2. Let's share not only good things that happened but also the bad stuffs, and maybe someone out there can learn something from your story.
So what are you waiting for? Start sharing your stories here!
I'm currently staying here in Riyadh because of work. Every once in awhile, me and my friends went out. We went to Khobar that day, it was weekend here so we have no work. About 4-5 hours travel by car just to get there, so we have a few stop overs just to go to the cr, buy some drinks and get some gas. On the mid-way of you trip, we have this stop over on a gasoline station, i went to the other car to check for our other friends there. Then we continued our trip. After more or less 20 mins, i started to noticed that i can't find my phone anywhere. I didn't let my friends know it at first because i thought i just put somewhere in my bag. But after 10 mins of looking, my heart starts to beat fast. At that time i only have my phone for 2 months i think, so i was so nervous but i didn't let my friends see it through me. Then i asked one of them to please call my number so that we would know if the phone was on the car or not. Then he said that it was ringing but we are not hearing anything inside the car. Then he said that a saudi guy answered the phone, at this point i don't know what to do and i was so scared. Then i told him that if he's just only joking it was not funny. Then he handed over to me his phone and when i said "hello.." someone replied from the other side. I was so scared that the guy who found my phone will not return it to me anymore. Then he told us that he found my phone on a gasoline station. Then he said that we will meet on the next bridge. After reaching the next bridge at a speed of 180km/hr, we called the guy again. He said that he was waiting there for 10 mins and he left already. He said that we will meet on the next bridge again. At this point im completely losing hope of seeing my phone again.
When we reached the said bridge, we called the my phone again and the guy said that he was waiting there for quite sometime and that he was on his way to Dammam. We told him to wait for us at the road going to Dammam, then he told us that he was going to a wedding and he was on a hurry. Then he said that in the evening that day he will be in Khobar for the wedding and he will return my phone there.
I didnt enjoy the rest of our trip because im still worried about my phone. Then as soon as it get's dark, we called the guy again. And he said that he was in Khobar that time and we will meet. I'm still nervous at that point, but my friends told me that the guy will return my phone.. blah blah blah.. Then the guy told us to hurry up because he will be leaving soon. So we asked him to give us 3 more mins and we will be there.
Then when we arrived at the said place, we saw the guy on a Lexus Black 2008 edition i think. The guy handed the phone to us with out any questions.
I was so thankful that my phone was returned. And imagine, i dropped the phone in a gasoline station but then when it was returned to me there are no scratches or anything, thanks to my Piel Frama leather case!
Since that day, i never let even a split second that i can't see my phone. I promised myself to take care of it very well. I treated my phone as if i was taking care of a cute puppy.
As of today im still waiting for my Otterbox Defender Case to be shipped. And im willing to give my very best for my phone!
That's all...
Thanks,
Pongskie
Great story, glad to hear you got it back. I'd be panicking loads if I thought I'd lost my hd2 and someone had taken it.
I was annoyed when someone stole my Sony Ericsson P800 back in the day.

Mine is a bit lame, but over the past 2 weeks myself and my wife have been in hospital with our 3 week premature little girl in nursery care, during that time the HD2 was my saving grace, being able to stay on keep in touch with friends on facebook and general web browsing, take regular photos of our girl to update my wife while she was recovering from the surgery (c-section) and bub was in nursery, post online and send to family, uploading video to youtube etc. Everything is in this phone, there is not one limitation and thats what I love about it.

Since I got my HD2, my wife was on me about getting new phone and cost. all the way up until we were out and about and needed directions and needed to look up the store we were looking for. My HD2 came in like a champ. Yeah, I know I could have edone this with most phones, but for me, I like the flexability of this phone. and the size!!! I'm 6' 8'' and this phone fits me. Finally a phone that does not fill like I'm the giant in the room. BTW, I'm the normal one!!! the rest of you are muchkins!

No understanding.
When I put the kids to bed obviously I have my HD2 just in case I need to check something.... My eldest daughter has now put a sign up outside her room "no telefon" she's only 6 still learning to spell.
Obviously my wife loved that and was thinking of getting one for the bedroom.
On a sad note my HD2 has been away getting fixed for 3 weeks (been using the old touch diamond which is still good) how they all laughed when I told them it had broke. Getting it back tomorrow hopefully.
p.s.
That's not my real name, if anybody saw this thread apart from HD2 owners we're F****ed. They wouldn't understand.
On a recent camping trip to the English Lake district,the torch came in really useful
for picking my way through the guy lines to find the toilet late at night.
Also was able to take photos and upload them straight to Facebook
so family could be kept up to date,was good to be able to use the router function
as well to run my laptop from a field awesome....

for picking my way through the guy lines to find the toilet late at night.
Also was able to take photos and upload them straight to Facebook
so family could be kept up to date,was good to be able to use the router function
as well to run my laptop from a field awesome....

I know this feeling and this problem!
I think HTC and XDA must place a warning
warning:
Using a HTC device and be active on xda can created some damage between you and your partner!
LOL
As some of you may have noticed, I have been very inactive in the Android world over the past month or so. I wanted to take the opportunity to let everyone know what is going on.
My wife is 8 months pregnant, and starting about a month ago she has been having some issues. Nothing too serious, but it means we have to go to the doctor several times a week to make sure she and the baby are not getting worse. She is also not supposed to leave the house if possible. As much as I enjoy the playing around I do with Blackhole, my family has to come first.
The Baby could be born any time now, and I simply don't have the time to devote to Android like I used to. I will admit that what little free time I have left now goes to extra sleep (cause I know I won't be getting any for a while after the baby is born). Lets face it, I'm no Adrynalyn or Jcase. For me Android has always been a hobby, and I do what I do mostly for myself, but just decided to share it.
I do plan on getting back into things once my life has settled down a bit, and if something major happens (Official GB upgrade anyone?) I'll try to make the time to release an update, but don't expect anything from me for a while.
I want to say thank you to everyone who has supported me with kind words, donations, suggestions, testing, bug reports, etc. over the past 9 months or so since I started developing on the Fascinate, and I want you all to know how much I appreciate you.
TTFN
I hope all goes well with you and your family. And yes, Family always comes first.
Thanks for all you do for the community, you will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Congrats. And do take care.
good day. using xda premium.
We, in turn, appreciate all you've done for the Fascinate community, and eagerly look forward to a successful birth for the baby! If you wish to share pics of the little tendertot, I'm sure we'd all be excited to see them! If you do not wish to share them due to privacy concerns, we'll understand that, too. Have you decided on a name, and did you find out in advance if the baby will be a boy or girl? Again, if you wish to keep these details private, we'll respect that

best wishes to you and the (expanding) family
Indeed. Family always comes first, rest assured that we will all be here when you get back.
Congratulations on the new baby!

Congratulations, man. Hope everything goes well. Don't worry about us, compared to the family, we're nothing. No offense to anyone here, but I think we all know where ones priorities should lie.
We'll keep you and yours in our thoughts. We're pulling for ya.
Thanks so much again for all the kind words guys, I'll be glad to post up some pictures when we get them. Her name is Lilly, and we're so excited =) I'm going to be wrapped around her little finger if you believe my wife, which I do.
Just glad to hear all is well as of now. Pregnancy can be daunting by itself, throw in complications just makes it that much more stressful for you and your wife. Congratulations on the addition though and great name choice, my niece is named Lilly.
Is it a boy or a girl??
:d

Rolling the clock back a little, your work was defiantly among the top. The first rom I ever flashed on this phone was yours. As nothing stood still your work has fallen down the list but then again so has super clean. Should you ever find the time again in 18 to 20 years your return will be must welcomed.
Thank you for your works, I and many others enjoyed them greatly in their day. All the best with the coming parenting. Be sure to pass your skills on to your little ones so as to increase your efficiency in making a timely comeback
Thanks again

Hope everything goes well for you. The last month or so my GF was going in at least 3 times a week for tests.
Not sure if this is your first (I have two), but I am always amazed at how durable children are. They have an amazing ability to bounce back from just about anything! Best of luck, and enjoy your new family member.
Best of luck with the expanding family, and I will add my prayers to the rest.
This is my first kid, but I had 2 little brothers and 2 little sisters, so I'm well aware that kids are a hardy breed (much more than I am these days). Lillian is her full name, and it was my wife's Grandmother and Great Grandmother's name, and I just thought it was pretty (also has some tie-ins to Superman and Veronica Mars, but don't tell my wife).
Congrats! Having a kid is a life changing experience ...it changed mine and I love my kid to death ...family always first and hope all goes well
I'm a new user for the Fascinate
but appreciate all work and help given to us users ...
Once again congrats
