Hello,
Does anyone knows how to have high resolution pictures for contacts without 3rd party software?
Thank you.
No one?
Thank you
You need to have the picture on the phone then select use contact icon-existing contact if they are already in the phone book and you should be all set. If you try to do it through Outlook on the computer they will look bad.

This.
Or use Facebook contact pics!
my solution works with a little script (dont know if you can call that 3rd party app), but it works perfectly and fast, too:
found it a long time ago in these forums, but cant find the original thread anymore...
THIS IS NOT WRITTEN BY MYSELF, BIG THANKS TO THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR!!!
1) rename your high-res-contactpictures to firstname_lastname.jpg
2) place the exe and the contactpictures in a folder on your HD2
3) execute the .exe, follow the instructions

Hmm do i trust a small EXE file posted by someone with a post count of 13?
nobody forces you to run it....
btw...i registered in 2007, and waited 3 years to post a suspicious .exe that will harm you.....yeeeeessssss, that was my great plan....

Hi
I just found out I have a little problem with my camera. It works perfectly but when cleaning up after all the installation its seems I deleted some of the templates used by the cam. Now I can't do a "picture theme" anymore as I have no templates for it.
Can somebody send me one from his, I only need one to avoid that nasty error when switching through the cam modes. You should find them on you PC in the synced MyDocuments folder under Templates.
Thank you very much.
Please with sugar on top.
I got this from someone in another thread not that long ago. The originals aren't there, but quite a few good replacements...
Just extract the cab file and chuck it on!
Lovely, thank you so much. That are way enough, I only need very few since I dont use that feature at all yet and I dont want to fill my ram with such things. But since I deleted them (dont know why) switching through my cam modes caused an error that no templates are there when reaching picture theme.
Do they install into the My Documents\Templates folder?

HELLO cowboy, I had the same problem few days a go ( see my post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=28308&highlight= )
U just have to put this gif file inside the folder named Models (my documents > models >) and all will work fine...
Pay attention with file syncronisation...wt you erase on the pc folder will be erased on your Magician.
Cheers
Placido
Actually I found out it can be any gif file of those templates so you can chose a few that you actually may use someday. Those two are not really very useable, esp the large flashing one. That downloadable cab contains a few very nice that will work too.
Hi all, I am new to this forum.
I own a Dopod 900, and currently trying to get MS Voice Command to work properly with my unit. I believe one of the problem with this application is that it does not respond to command while the unit is in closed mode (the pda screen in inside). Is solution to this problem already available?
I have searched the forum but have not been able to find any solution. I apologize if I missed it, please kindly point me to that posting if there is any.
Any advise is greatly appreciated.
- Josh :?:
From what I've read so far there isn't a fix I'm afraid. It's not fully compatible with WM2005 and will just have to wait for an update from Microsoft :-(
Thanks for your reply. That's too bad. I really have high hope that there is a solution for just this one problem, as there are already tweaks for the other problems. Being unable to receive command in closed mode really make MS Voice Command very much less usable. Too bad.
- Josh
I agree, but at least it's a step up with the other voice dial (that comes it with?). Couldn't do dialling from BT headset at all on WM2003 :-(
The "closed mode" doesn't bother me as I carry the Exec round in a Krusell case, with screen up. This allows me to instantly answer the phone when it rings (having seen who's calling first on the screen).
But there are a few more annoying problems with MS Voice Command 1.5 (I have UK version) present under Windows Mobile 5.0.
This one is unique to WM5.0:
- The first is when I try to call up a certain contact by "Show John Smith", it would show John Smith's contact under WM2003/03SE, but under WM5.0 it just shows blank screen on the Summary tab. This is still a proper contact, if you go to Notes tab, you see proper notes for this contact. You can press Edit and it will be edited... BUT, meanwhile if you just open Contact app, the ones you open are working great.
GBugger...
The following coupla' niggles are also present under WM2003/03SE.
- The days of week when answering "What date is it today" (somehow UK regional settings don't even have it, so I had to enable it in registry under NLS settings) -- all are announced correctly except Wednesday & Thursday, which are sounding simply as "Wed" and "Thu" instead of proper name.
- The signal strength for 1,2,3 and 4 "units" is announced as 30, 60, 90 and 100% correspondingly, instead of 25,50,75,100 which would seem more logical here. I don't know though if it's just caused by something real or an attempt to easily convert
That said, the application is enormously useful especially with the Krusell case, because the carrying shape for Exec in this case is PDA shape with screen up; but it's protected by screen cover of the case and you can't really write on the screen without opening the case -- so voice activation of programs and then controlling them by 5-way navigation control, is really a great way of using the Exec Examples of these programs are the eWallet (ever forgotten your PIN numbers or clothes size?) and speaking date/time, very convenient when you can't look down there.
Hopefully Microsoft corrects these small errors - the WM5.0 devices are the future.

Really, MS should have had this wrapped up ages ago. So disappointed. I want a device like the Exec, but with Voice Command fully working and A2DP sorted, and it's a shame I still can't get all this.
I was so used to the VC software on my JAM, shame the Exec is giving problems.
And I'm tired of tangling my headphones up...
MS, sort all this out already.

Copy the outres.96.dll into the windows folder and the contact will display correctly.
I'm sorry, but no, it doesn't work for me. Same effect as without outres.96.dll. And yes, I made a soft reset after copying it to the windows dir.
So the next question now is: how to remove the file again?
If I try to delete it, Resco Explorer says "Cannot delete file 'outres.96.dll'. The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file."
If the file is useless, then I want to remove it from the device. But it has been blocked by another process.
Thanx in advance

I had the same problem but saw the answer on a forum somewhere. After you have installed the dll and do a soft reset as it reboots for a short period it does a security check on the new dll and asks whether you really want to install it, if you answer yes then you will find the blank contacts screen problem is fixed. If you take your eyes off the screen at the end of the soft reset you will miss this security question a it defaults to No after a few seconds. Hope this helps.

I have answered 'yes' to the security check. Nevertheless the dll doesn't work for me. So I want to remove it now, but I can't because it's blocked by some process.

I've copied the file gnassel suggested into my Windows directory (using the explorer on my desktop pc).... rebooted the exec.. and voila.. it's working like a charm now.. My voice command shows the contact when I say : "Lookup XXXX" or when i call someone, it confirms the person and shows his information just fine. Norte I am usin the u.s. version of voice command 1.5.
Thanks gnassel !
This is a reply to my own posting above.
I did the soft reset using an application called 'psShutXP' (maybe someone knows it; one use it in order to switch off or soft reset the device). Voice Command's contacts mask doesn't worked.
A few minutes ago I soft resetted the device using the "original" reset hole. And voila: Voice Command works as expected!
So there seems to be a difference between "soft reset" using psShutXP and soft reset using the reset hole.
Sorry for the confusion. THE FILE OUTRES.96.DLL WORKS!
By the way: What exactly does outres.96.dll?
Best regards
tomestos
Many thanks gnassel, it works great..
The file was from OzVGA
Thanks for drawing attention to it and posting it, or I wouldnt have know..
Take a thanking damnit
Guys, where do I put the outres.96 dll file again? If I am using File Explorer there is a "WINDOWS" Folder from the very root with a lot of files. Is that the folder I am suposed to put the oures.96 dll file or just leave it outside in the main root?

Thanks everyone. I thought for a while I have to plug it in my computer too.
Ok, yesterday I've played a little with the Social Network Engine and I've finally dioscovered how to get it to work...
Prerequisiste: have HTC album installed...pretty obiousvly. Then..
1) Install the cab extracted from the Blackstone (I've found it somewhere in this forum, can't remeber exactly where: sorry to the author)
2) Extract the SocialNetworkEngine archive and copy it into your SD. Then move all files into windows folder (using totalcommander, resco or similar). Theese files are part of the oem pack of the original app.
3) Extract the last one archive, that contains only the provxml file, and copy it into your SD. Then open Advanced Configuration Tool made by Shaps, select "Menu" then "Import provxml".
4) Softreset.
That's all guys.
PS: I've got no time to make a cab now, sorry again.
sorry for my dumb question, but what exactly is "the social network engine" ?

You can upload pictures to Facebook ex. And Videos to Youtube
Youtube and Facebook options for multimedia files
bye!
ah, thanks for the informations!
It doesn't seem to work here ... I followed your instructions to the letter but cannot login to facebook or youtube afterwards ..
Youtube says " You input the incorrect username or password " and
facebook says : " There was an error while attempting to login "
I'm using Dutty's V4 Rom
Am I to dumb or missing something ?
Garf
No...don't think you've missed something (just to ask: did you made a softreset?) because:
A) youtube should work even without my istructions, just installing the cab.
B) facebook should give you anotherone type of error (something like "connection attempt...")
Theese errors seems to be related to the user/password you've digited.
EDIT:
the facebook error is the same that I had befor import the provxml I've posted here. Did you do it and then softreset?
Found it !!!
This social Networking implemetation from HTC seems stoopid ....
Guess what the problem was ???????????
My passwords were too complex or too long !!!
I had a password in with 8 letters , Upper & Lower case , Numbers and Special Characters both for facebook and youtube .... Just changeing the password to something simpler made both work perfectly
*** AARGHHHHH ***
Now I just need to figure how complex I can make my passwords without breaking the social networking again !
Thanks
Claude
Ahahah...no comment!!!
Anyhow: happy that you solved.
Cheers.
Worked perfectly
Got this up and running perfectly doing your steps exactly on a Sprint Diamond running Juicy 3.9 ROM.
Thanks!
-Mike
works on pistonrippers rom.
cheers
brilliant app, love this many thanks
Chris
I'm glad to see that it works without any poroblem.
I'm really interested to know, discover, test...if this app can be used also with other services (not just with faceboo, youtube, ecc...) but also to upload photos to flickr, or songs to myspace in example. Dunno, but maybe it's just a base and it can be "expanded"...
doesn't work here on a german rom!?!
@Herr_Knigge:
I'm sorry, but I don't know cause I've got a WWE rom.
Maybe some files (that were extracted from an international rom) will cause some "compatibility" issues with a localized rom.
Can't help you a lot on this plane.
Sorry again.
i know this might sound daft, but is there any way to use a html doc to open the Album.exe ?
one of the guys posted the following in the dev and hacking section as a front for facebook mobile,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3080511#post3080511
i like the idea and have been playing around with it to make it more usable for me, then thought about trying to include a link to the album now it can be used to upload to facebook. ive included my edit to give you an idea of what im thinking but the code is beyond me
if anyone thinks this could work feel free
I'm not an HTML expert, anyhow I'm pretty sure that's not possible.
I think the only link to an external program (without that the browser ask you for a confirm) will be made with the command "mailto:" to send an email with you favourite desk app.
Moreover, if you use opera to open the page that you've posted above, the space needed on the bottom bar to create the new shortcut will be overdrwaned by the small menu button of the browser.
Anyhow, I found this "trick" very nice and I want to try it sometimes. So I've just correct a small line of the code to erase the useless (and very annoying) horizontal scrollbar. If you want to test it, just rename the file to fbook.html then copy it into the original folder and say "yes" to overwrite the old one.
Cheers.
im running the stock rom for sprints touch pro... will this still work for me?
Think so.
Don't imagine why it should not...
Regards.
Ok I followed your step to the letter and everything seemed to work great, no hiccups during install I was even able to login to facebook with no errors. I tried the other facebook program and could not get it to login so that was good (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3125204#post3125204).
On the top my little data transfer thing is going but its going and going and going, and no picture has been uploaded. How long do I have to wait for 1 picture? I have a feeling that this is not working right on the Sprint Touch Pro stock ROM.
Is there a way for me to view the uploader (did not see it in program files), also the album seems to be more responsive and easier to navigate, is it just my imagination? Last Some of the thumnails wont populate, I have to exit and then come back in and then they appear, is this a bug in this version of the album or always there>
how do i change the contact name from Last, First name to First last?
anyone know i cant bloody find this thing anywhere!!
ive search for this and couldnt find anything, in the end i just put peoples names in the first name space only.
ah thats abit annoying
Search for Contact Changer or Contact Fix. This does what you're looking for, even better it's free & works a treat. Hope this helps.
Try this...

Saw this somewhere, maybe on here..sorry to OP, cannot find original.
If you sync with outlook
Click on the person name
say the name is john smith if you click the “file as” drop down. it will show two option
“Smith john” and “john smith” click which one you want
You will need to do this to each name
Its only 3 click with a mouse so it wont take long unless you got 500 name to change lol…….
that sucks alot.. lol

SIMPLE SOLUTION: Just download and install the freeware application Contact Fix, also called Contact Changer on this website. Install the application (click on the .cab file within the file explorer of your phone). Then open the application by clicking on the shortcut in the windows menu. When you run it, it orders ALL your contact at once in less than a second, almost instantly. It won't change the default order though, so when you a new contact, you'll have to run the app again. But it's so easy and quick!
Hi all,
I've got an app that includes a send/receive using MessagingApplication.Synchronize(). It works fine, but shows the inbox and this has to be closed manually. Ideally I'd rather just not have anything visible.
Does anyone know any way to do this?
Thanks in advance
You could use Mortscript. I have Blackberry Connect on my TD2. Every time I soft reset, I get a new email in the System folder. I don't want to bother to delete this manually, so I use Mortscript to delete it. To do this, I run send/receive (from Mortscript) and then exit the email again using Mortscript. Here is the words you will need to add to your mortscript. If you are not familiar with this program, please google mortscript.
Run("Program Files\SendRecieveAll.exe")
Sleep ( 3000 )
MouseClick 455,27
I have put it in a mortscript file for ease. If you download mortscript and then use file explorer to click on the attached file, it should work. I have tested it.
Edit - this is assuming you have put the SendReceiveAll.exe in your Program folder on your device, if not then do that. By the way, unzip the attachment. By the way, where in England is "Twatt"? I think I'd like that place, but is it wet there??

Thanks a lot for the suggestion mate. I was actually looking for a way of doing a send/receive for all email accounts. I'd got that far, but it insisted on showing the inbox while it was doing it, and I wanted it to be invisible, hence this thread.
From your post though, I noticed that you were pointing at an application that does exactly that!

Oh, how funny (where you live)!
The SendReceiveAll program is very good. It's not invisible though and it does not exit the email after running hence the mortscript.... Just close your eyes after running it and you will never know it ran at all, except you will have new emails.....
