did the calendar colors actually change. i cant place what is different. its a trivial change but i was curious. also hoping they would jazz it up more
the best calendar change is that the google calendar is set to default instead of the local phone one.
nice 7 and 17 are what I was looking forward to getting fixed.

Has anybody else found annoying bugs so far? Here's the ones that I've run into:
- Address Book server sync overwrites changes that you've made from the phone (haven't confirmed this one, might be my fault somehow)
- Multimedia volume slider plays your ringtone once you adjust the volume, but plays it at the volume set in the ringtone slider (not the volume that you're actually adjusting)
- Browser bookmarks list has a lot of trouble keeping site icons straight, it just kind of randomly shuffles them around to the wrong site as you load different bookmarks
- AOL Instant Messenger app shows weird behavior, not sure if it's a bug but it is definitely difficult to use in its current state. Locking the phone prevents messages from showing up, then on unlock they stream in all at once, and if you go too long without checking in on it the program will be terminated but your screen name will not be signed out of AOL's server
- There doesn't appear to be any way to set a vibration for notifications like Text Messages or IMs
- Some apps (MySpace Mobile, specifically) do not account for their process being interrupted when the screen rotates and the current action will be cancelled or the program will freeze.
Overall great phone, I'm really extremely impressed with it as a whole so far. I'm amazed at how fast my internet connection is on EDGE, my old Dash was technically on the exact same connection but took 5 or 10 times longer to load a full web page. Even without 3G the web browsing experience is comparable to using my desktop at home.

Awesome, thank you! Weird that the option isn't available in the same place as setting the vibration function for the phone. Has anybody found solutions to any of these other problems?
Thanks
That fixed it for me. Thanks..its so Funny because Ive been messing around with my phone for 2 days and Just found this answer...Thanks
Android will get it wrong sometimes on sms threads when the sender is not in your contacts.
I noticed yesterday I received an sms from [email protected] and deleted it. Later an sms from +1913XXXXXXX. When I pulled up the my sms folders later, the newer, undeleted sms from the 913 number said it was from @domain.com.
(and the two are in no way related.) I did a reboot and it still displayed the same.

When I plug my G1 into my iMac the computer freezes and I need to do a hard restart. Is anyone else having this issue? My updates are current on my iMac and all of my other phones work without any problems.
when i play music and i turn of the screen, there is a jump every 15 seconds
here's an email bug...
Go to craigslist.org. I wanted to ask a seller a question. When I email from there, it gives me 2 options, to use my pop 3 email account or gmail. If I use gmail, it takes off the craigslist.org extension and replaces it with gmail.com. If i choose to send with my pop 3, it just opens a blank email without the email address. I try to copy and paste the address into the sending field, but it won't let me. I use craigslist a lot, so this is a bit of a pain...
Otherwise, lovin the G1

Hi all,
I'm experiencing some issues with my HD2, and so far they haven't been solved by HTC. I doesn't seem to find a "known issue list" per ROM, but may be I'm overlooking somehow. please let me know if there are answers to the following problems/ questions:
1. I cannot influence on the default display order of first name/last name when I sync my contacts with outlook. it always saves the "wrong way around"
2. when sending "long SMS" (text over 2 messages) the second one rarely arrives at the recipient.
3. the SMS forwarding option from the SENSE UI does not work properly: it suggests to forward the last message from the conversation modus, although I selected another one to forward. when I press "ok" from the status menu and try again, it works fine.
4. the SMS conversation modus of the SENSE only shows me the last 25 messages. when I delete some of these I get the older ones back one by one, filling up till 25 each time. I don't want to be cut after 25. Is there a setting?
5. The twitter peep app. refuses to pop a sound when a new tweet arrives, although this is setup in the sounds settings
6. Where can I set that I don't want to keep all the old tweets until the end of times? I would like to drop history older than let's say 1 week.
7. What happened to the "post time" of the tweets older than one day in the peep app? I want to keep seeing those!!
8. When I use the Google search bar from the SENSE UI, I get a nice results list. When I click these results, I go to an internal Google page that holds the main text of the internet page. at the bottom of that page I can click to go to the actual page. How can I set it up to go immediately from the results page to the actual internet page?
9. On my device it seems to be impossible to connect a bluetooth car kit headset to my device. It recognizes 20 phones that are in cars next to me but not my headsets (only tested with nokia devices).
responses much appreciated. other issues: more than welcome, but please check your ROM first.
2nd attempt
On point 9. Go to the settings tab and then click "menu" and "All Settings".
Now go to the bluetooth icon and make sure your phone is discoverable.
I had this same issue trying to pair my phone with my GPS to use the hands free functionallity.
Make sure you turn off discoverable mode once the devices are paired.
Good luck.

1.
You have to save each contact as firstname and then surname. This you do when opened a contact, edit, then scroll all the way down to the bottom. Press the big button "MORE". Here you can "Save as" and choose first name, then surname.
Yes, from what I know, you must do this with every contact individually. When it's done, you should be able to sync and they should stay that way. At least this is what I've done, and it works for me.
1. There's a cheap app in the Marketplace called Contact Changer that will display all your contacts how you'd like.
5. Yep that's annoying. It makes the alert noise when it updates but not when you get a new tweet. Odd.
8. There's a permanent setting in Google settings to change this.
is there any fix for No. 4?

8. Where are the settings for that? I have the Mobile View unthicked in Settings but still, facing the same issue.
I call this a new recommendation because I haven't seen before. It comes from an HTC service representative, and aside from factory resetting the phone and looking at app size/cache sizes (not app data) for various apps via Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All (menu, sort by size), I was still "normal." The largest app on my phone was the FiOS app at 14.6MB. After that, everything was smaller. I had 451MB remaining in my application storage, 5+ GB internal free, 11+ (of 16GB) free on my SD card, and ~90MB available in cache space. In essence he told me that the low space error message was generic in nature and could be indicative of an app running out of "space" instead of my phone running low on space.
The recommendation the HTC support person gave me to try today was clearing my browser cookie data, cache, and history. The reason we went to this step was because I had noticed and mentioned to him that, with only one window open, the browser was using ~50MB resident. This was an observation I made after looking at the Internet app resource usage numbers via the System Panel app. The odd thing is that this memory usage didn't show up in in the Settings menu. Clearing the caches is done from the settings menu of the Internet app (from within the browser app, tap the 'menu' button on your phone and then scroll down to "Privacy Settings"). Now my Internet app uses ~14MB with one window open. After doing this step, and without a restart, my issue with the low space error went away (hooray!). It's a basic recommendation I know but in the searching about this error I have not read it before and actually read the HTC was denying the issue existed. I should note that we talked about the mail app, however there was noting too out of whack as System Panel showed it as using 12MB and it had no cache I could clear.
Another recommendation I received was managing the number of messages in each of my threads in the default messaging app. Essentially the more messages I have the greater the possibility that I run into an issue of a generic message sending failure. I asked a second representative about the thread limiting feature (under settings of the messaging app) and the fact that I had backed up and restored my text messages before, and now they were not being properly managed (i.e. I had 152 messages in a thread when I was telling my phone to keep 130). The second representative was the one who was conducting my customer satisfaction survey at the end of the call. He put me on hold for (at most) two minutes and then came back with an Incredible and told me that the feature is designed to keep the last 100 messages on my phone should a cell provider decide to clear text messages from their server. He also advised me to keep an eye on Dialer Storage, and that if it gets above 15-20 MB I should clear the data. He warned me of the importance of this app as it stores some of my email account info (if I remember correctly) and text message cache, so clearing that app does not come lightly. As I stand right now my Dialer Storage is ~7.14 (with 6.84 in data) when viewed in Settings menu. Though my Messages app says it only has 824kb or data and 2.2MB of total space in the Settings menu, it stands at ~18.5MB in the System Panel app.
I've noticed that after getting one of my threads down to 100 messages (my new limit) it's now staying at that limit at least for the one thread I tried it on. So maybe the thread limiting feature does work. I hope this info helps someone else with this problem and does not have cache issues that show up readily when looking at apps in the Settings menu.
P.S. I also asked the first representative about Push Messages in the messaging app. I was told it has to do with supplemental data that can come along with email accounts that use the POP and IMAP mail types. He also told me that it's possible that some carrier messages can end up there as well.

+1 on that comment. Our developers have put a lot of time to give us what verizon is just pushing to us. My wife downloaded the update and after comparing, I still love my 2.9.2 better. She gets jealous cause I still have a better theme and several other options.
Anyone know if there's any reason to get the OTA update if we were already on the leaked release?
Right, hope this works for everyone as I can't get my FB or nav working I tried to figure out how to get sense dashboard operational.
Tested on ARHD 6.3.1 over 2 fresh installs
Run set up (main menu) or from a fresh install
When you get to the scheduled Sync tab select - Automatically sync (you can change at a later time if your batt appears to drain)
Select your wifi (for speed purposes)
Allow googles usage
accounts - Input your google one (for market etc..) and any others you want to sync such as twitter and facebook stream/contacts.
Finish
Load up on your PC/tablet/mac... etc (was that PC enough?) https://www.htcsense.com/en_GB/#dashboard/ and then log in, input your mobile number in the international format for UK it is +44 then your mobile number omitting the FIRST zero, mine starts +447624
Once your on the dashboard you'll get a map on the left with the smallest button just above it that says refresh, but don't hit that yet.
Load up on your phone htc hub (you need this btw, DL the apk from droid website if you need it)
log in using the same details as the sense dashboard site and again input your mobile number in international format as per the above step
Once it logs you in you can DL some standard aps from htc direct but... hit that phones menu button and prod the options menu
Go to notification settings and uncheck 'New item notifications' this is so you don't get bothered about exciting new applications from htc
Exit, we're done in this one and then go into the next app which is called HTC likes and do the same as above remembering to go into the options and uncheck 'New item notifications'
Here's the final bit, go back onto your PC and click that refresh button and let it sync. Mine took around 2 minutes and from then on I could see where my phone was and make it ring
Mine does all that you have just described without any of the steps you just described.
I can make it ring and see it just by logging in to the website...
That's good, but I know a lot of people could never get it working
