Touch Screen not working - Touch HD General

The touchscreen from my HTC touch hd is not responding anymore.
Very annoying, so i had to contact htc in order to make use of the garanty.
But.. when i do that, they are totally reseting my mobile, so i will lose all my important telephone numbers!
So before i send it away, can somebody please help me what to do to save my numbers?
thanx

Does your device still turn on, but screen not respopnsive?
If so, have you tried activesync and sync your contacts with Outlook?

yes.. i tried no responds..
now i want to try to open the mobile myself, to look if there is a connector intached..
is there somewhere a detailed spare parts document on the net how to open this telephone savely?

I just changed myself the Touchscreen, have had the same problem.
Look on ebay for a Touch HD Digitizer.
on vimeo.com is a Video how to open the HD, but not how removing die LCD from Touchscreen. U have to be carefull removing die LCD, i brokened it and had to buy a new one.

Smashed Screen - SMS Help!

Managed to drop my Hermes today and smashed the screen
More urgently, though, I need to find a way of retrieving my text messages from the phone using Active Sync. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Neil
I use Jeyo mobile companion, but there might be others
Thanks for the suggestion. Problem is, I can't see the screen on the phone to install the app...
Ah, I see. I'm really sorry, I can't think of any other way, but maybe someone else can

How to turn on the display when an email is received ?

When i receive an new email through activesync push (exchange 2007) i have enabled the option to display the message on screen and sound notification but the screen doesn't turn on automatically like when you receive a new SMS so basically its almoste impossible know when you receive a new email.
Can i change this somehow to act like when an SMS is received and turn on the screen ?
thank you
so basically there isn't a way for that ?
Yeah, also noticed that.
Would be nice to have a solution for that.
@Work i have my phone on table and sound/vibrate disabled.
So the only way to see a message is when screen turns on.
Ok, there's the LED, but in a bright room it can take hours till u notice that.
I googled this issue a lot, no luck.
I just get sound and vibrate, no screen message.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who find this odd
I was hoping it was fixed/added on WM6 but its not
Strange that no one has notice or even make a query about this in Microsoft, i find it completely stupid not to act the same way as an SMS/MMS since nowadays i use more the email than texting.
Lets hope for someone to do something about this if its possible
this is killing me!
any hard code developer can do something about this ?? it must be a way to trigger the same procedure that SMS uses in order to turn on the screen or something.
please please for this!

You'd think that Pocket MSN would also do the same wouldn't you? But it doesn't
this is by far the stupidest thing for the WM. I really can even begin to think why they did this, who is the genius behind this idea ?!?
Hell I think its a good idea. I'd hate my screen to come on everytime I got an email! I get a lot of email so that would majorly suck!
Yesbut why not just have it as a selectable option, that would make more sense!
exactly, at least put an option for it! email should be treated like SMS nowadays. yould you prefer creamhackered not to turn on the screen when you reseive an SMS ?

Text message to contact's secondary number

Does anyone know if you can send a text message to a contact's secondary number?
i.e. if I had a contact
Mr A
Mobile: 123456789 (default)
Mobile2: 1232465933
Is there a way that I can select Mobile2 in the text message 'To' field. Currently it will only come up with the default number.
I know that you can send a message via the contacts screen.

I gave someone in my contacts list a faux secondary mobile number and when I start typing their name the Auto Complete finds both mobile numbers just fine. Am I understanding you correctly?
you can text that person through the Contacts app instead of Messaging.
Open Contacts then go to the specific contact then hit the secondery phone no.

Same here, just changed a contact so that two numbers were marked "mobile" and went to messaging, typed the first two letters of the contact name and both mobile numbers showed up for selection.
Thanks for the info, I was being a bit dumb, or rather didn't realise that texting only picks up contacts marked as mobile. Some of mine were marked as home etc...
Thanks again!
Hello,
Since this is the only place that has this problem raised on the web, I"m asking for your help. I have a htc rhodium, touch pro2.
I have the same problem that the other guy had but worse. I cannot change the secondary number to mobile. I have options for: home, company, work, car.. etc?
I cannot do it even via the contacts screen.
How do I resolve this?... :?
Please help anyone?
P.S. I know this is not the right subforum, but since it is discussed here....

You don't have the Dream, perhaps your phone don't even support multiple Mobiles as a choice?

It would seem so... ???
Although it seems very strange to me considering this is a business phone. Many people have dual mobiles.......
There has to be a solution....
I'll ask at even at the rhodium subforum....

Yes, many people have dual phones, but only one of them is meant for business.

not necessarily true..
I use both my phones for business. I divide contacts based on importance. But this is not a business discussion
and this problem means that I can send SMS to only one of those numbers, or make a new contact with a second number... time consuming
strange, very strange behaviour.
My very old nokia did not have this problem..
I really hope android gets ported to the rhodium, windows let me down again...
cheers

SMS via PC to Phone

This is the first time in yonks I've not had a PC suite! LOL.
I've set up My Phone and the Device Centre. I wondered if as in some PC suites like the ones I've used (MPE and LG), there's a way to send SMS via the software when your phone is connected?
I don't mean the desktop sms where charges are incurred via some organisation.
I hope I'm making myself understood
Many thanks.
I use Efficasoft Mobile Express on my Windows Mobile phones. Imagine it works on HD2.
i use the small and easy application mymobiler. verry easy. you can completely control your telephone over wifi or an active sync connection.

Thanks Pete.
That's a beautiful, easy to use piece of software. Just one thing though and I don't know if it's me doing something wrong... when I type a text then press SEND, it just sits in the Outbox. The only way I've found for it to get it to go anywhere it to disconnect then reconnect the phone so it goes over to the handset. I didn't realise it had done this then sat in the Outbox or its equivalent on the handset. Next time I typed a text on the handset and sent it, it send those too, albeit a bit late, lol.
Have you had any problems like this?

Same Problem with my HTC HD Mini dude.. What to do.?
Where are your contacts located ? SIM Card ? Phone memory ? or both ?
Try to keep your contacts only in phone memory, not on SIM card.
Sounds like a corruption of the contacts database. Did any of you use a syncing process such as ActiveSync or MyPhone?
I'd suggest a hard reset, then make sure the contacts are correct on the host (Outlook or MyPhone) then try resyncing and see if it sorts it.
A pain to do, but probably no worse than sending your messages to the wrong place!
i dont sync my phone at all. but maybe this is caused by PIMBackup? i did use it to transfer data from my old phone
I notice the problem on the Notifications in the Lock Screen. Often, the older or previous missed call ID will be displayed, instead of the latest missed call ID.
I hope HTC can issue a fix or update to correct this problem.

Could be- PIMBackup is not fully compatible with WM 6.5.3 It caused major SMS problems on cooked 6.5.3 ROMs on the HD2.
Once you have the correct contacts on the phone, Microsoft MyPhone is a much better option.

Sometimes I have the same problem!
HTC we need a fix!
the problem is caused by WM6.5
Same problem on a HTC clone. The problem is WM6.5: when you receive a call with hidden ID, the phone shows the previous call's number instead of telling you that the ID is hidden. I couldn't find any solution yet. Windows Mobile is ****.
