Hi,
I`m now roaming and I have really big problem that my HD wants to connect all the time to the internet. I want not to use data here and the comm manager doesn`t help me at all! I disable data there and 2 minutes later its again acive!!! Hey, its much to expensive for me!!!! In Germany (my home), its no problem, cause I have unlimited data plan, but not for roaming, so please, could somebody help me? Cause right now, I just shut off my phone, I cant afford the data for roaming! By the way, I have Flexmail, Spb weather, palringo and other programs that use regularly internet, I dont want to disable all these programs.. I just want a possibility to cut all data at once, isn`t that possible? Please help me... Also I think a ghost connection wouldn`t work, cause I want to keep all my connections. Is there any possibility?
Another minor problem, nothing to do with that: I changed some time ago the start menu to small icons, now I really want the default menu back. I searched and searched and searched, and I really can`t remember where this option was, so, could you please tell me if you know where I can change the start menu beck to default? (the large icons with the top 5 bar in a row....)
So, thats it. But my really big problem now is the roaming problem, my phone is now practically useless to me!!!!!
Thanks for your support!!

Anyway, thank you very much!!!

my location only updates when a wifi network is near and found, but it must not be connected to.. its strange somehow, i know. but if a wifi network is near, it works like a charm.
As far as i have tried, you don't even need to have a wifi network near, you just have to have wifi turned on. It's actually quite a bother!!
What i have done is disable my location (i got the cab from Dutty) and just select the city manualy. I don't move around too much so it's not a problem

hm strange, it only works for me (on different roms) if i have wifi networks around me and not, if i only activated wifi.
but doesnt matter.. its strange like it is.
MyLocation may be recovered (by design) using GSM BTS position triangulation or Wi-Fi or GPS. Looks like Manila is able to use only Wi-Fi
Please note that GoogleMaps works even if wifi is disabled (of course with come data connection for example GSM+ActiveSync).
So, if GoogleMaps can work, why Manila is not able to find MyLocation with GSM+AS?
Current behaviour makes not able to synchronize MyLocation (including my location weather) using for example a cradle connected to PC.
I hope there will be some fix for manila.
This is a well known issue with a lot of the latest builds. Unfortunately for My Location to work you need to have wifi turned on, even if you are not using it. Simply done though. Just turn on wifi but do not connect to any wifi networks then update weather using GPRS. It should now work. Then turn off wifi once you are finished

... because earlier versions of manilla doesn't have MyLocation feature
Does someone know, does that issue appear on source devices from which OS components are took (ie HD2)?
I have the same prob. updated radio but that didn't work. I tried the suggestion on the wifi and it works fine! Although I was connected to my wifi network. I think it just needs to have the wifi on.
but why does it need that wifi? can't someone fix this? ( i know i ask quite a lot)
Since our roms are took from another devices, are users of Leo experience the same issue?
I would also like to use My Location over data connection and I've already created a thread in the "Blackstone General" section ("Possible Manila My Location fix??") nobody is able to give me an answer though
I'm also interested if this behaviour also occurs on HD2

MOD EDIT - No need for 2 threads running on same issue. Thread in link above closed
MOD EDIT - Thread moved. As much as I would like to see this issue resolved, I feel it would be better suited in General forum instead of the Rom Development forum
And there's a 3rd one here.

I tested that and it works. I think we finally have the solution.
Indeed it works!!
my system: EnergyROM 28002, radio 1.17
Did anyone try the advanced configuration tool on HD2 and can please tell if it works?
I am not sure about trying it because I've read that some not compatible programs can disable sound or bluetooth on device...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418151
i've tried it and works fine to me, check out BsB Tweaks 1.6 too!
Thanks for answer
I am using BsB tweaks yes, I just wanted to know if it's smart to install advanced configuration tool which is not compatible with hd2, at least it's not confirmed it works...
Well, it crached mine
Well, I tried it yesterday and it totally messed up mine Leo.
I was getting tons of Application Errors and HTC Sence simply wouldn't load.
Had to do a Hard Reset.
Before actually making changes I have exported them using AdvancedConfig, but even restoring those did not solve the issue.

What version did you install?

Hi,
I have installed ACT v3.3 on my brand new HD2. I also used this program on my Touch Dual and I especially liked the function where you could automatically let the data connection quit after a certain amount of time.
However after enabling this setting on my HD2 it does not seem to work. Do you guys have any idea why this is the cause or do you have any suggestion for another program which does the same trick (quiting data connection after X minutes).
Hope you can help me out with this one. Thank you in advance

I think it needs netcf 3.5. Did u install it too?
Yes I installed that too, without it ACT won't even launch. But I installed a spanish netcf 3.5 on a Dutch phone. But I don't think that will cause any issues.
Tried and tested. Works okay. I only needed it to disable threaded SMS, CAB Warnings, and Task Manager refresh rates. I guess you would be fine as long as you won't edit seemingly "outdated" tweaks, i.e. Touch Flo 3D as they now call it Sense.
Point in fact, ACT should only be editting registry entries, and display entries it finds. Which means, theoretically, it should work flawlessly for everyone pre-WP7, but I guess that's not the case for some here...
Hello everyone,
I just got my Hd2 few days ago and there is olny two things pissing me off with that phone.
1st is the wifi, that is disconnecting shortly after the screen goes black(battery saving i suppose). I listen to the internet radio over wifi and it stops after screen goes black. Is there any way to keep it on all the time?????
Second thing is the divx support. I have a divx 0.93 program on it bot i doesnt have all the codecs in it. What is the best divx player out there?
Many thanks in advance folks
wifi during standby can be enabled with BSB Tweaks. its a modding tool with many features.
for playing vids i would say best is CorePlayer....
DN41
thanks for replying i found many interesting options in bsb, includimg one responsible to keep wifi on in standby. i switch it on, phone asks for reboot, turns on ans that option is switched off again. Same story with startup animation, it never switches it off. ??????? is there reason why that may not work?
Its because that registry entry reverts to default whenever you reset the device.
With a reg editor go to HKLM - comm - bcmsddhd1 - parms
In that folder there should be an entry called htckeepwifionwhenunattended
change the value to 1 and your sorted.
Hope that helps.
Or use this CAB - this is the same thing like conantroutman advice you, but packed to installer.

Thanks franq thats very handy, does the cab need to be used after a reset or does it keep the setting permanently?
Forget about that weird cab, god knows what it does.
BSBTweaks wifi during standby option indeed doesn't work.
Better to use WifiNoStandby, install once, and that's it. No need to do anything again.
For divx; CorePlayer is the best option out there.
Dude hello!... This cab IT IS THE SAME like WiFiNoStandby. You think what a profit for me or anybody is posting suspicious stuff? Wake up dude and start think more like you talkin a bull ****s.

Hello,
This is my first post and require some expertise.
I'm new to all this, so if I could get some help.
I did a search and could not find an answer to my following problems.
#1: I am hoping that someone can help me find my answer with a constant message that pops up and stating that "Windows Live Hotmail is temporarily unavailable. Please try again."
I have Hotmail as my email and I have installed the Core Cell Series ROM...not sure if that has anything to do with my problem.
I have full four bars "H" reception and WiFi is also connect...no problem with internet.
I have the Send/Receive email automatically unchecked within Mail Setup.
I can't figure out why I am receiving this message every minute!
#2: How can I delete/remove the current Windows Live in order for me to install Windows Live 11 from Marketplace?
#3: Tried to install CoOkie.HomeTab v1.8.5, but Editor not functional...why?
I ended up uninstalling it and kept CHT v1.7.1.2.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
William
#3: Did you use CHT editor v1.8.5? It worked for for me along with the CHT 1.8.5.
I installed v1.8.5, but when I go to edit the program it isn't possible.
On the home screen I go into menu and CoOkie's Home Tab Editor displays an error screen: "An unexpected error has occurred in CHTEditor.exe.
Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information"
Details displays:
CHTEditor.exe
NullReferenceException
at
CHTEditor.CHTEditor_MainWindow.Check Version()
at
CHTEditor.CHTEditor_MainWindow..ctor()
at CHTEditor.CHTEditor.Program.Main(String[]
args)
Can someone please explain what went wrong and how can I correct this?
Please more suggestions!
Thanks.
when i installed cht 1.8 mine too didnt work with the menu - cht editor, but in start menu it worked fine.
Turns out there is a mistake in the registry (well, there was for me, worth a look)
get a reg editor and browse to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila
find
CHTE.Path
and make sure there isn't a double \\ at the start.
It should read
\Program Files\CHTEditor\CHTEditor.exe
mine said
\\Program Files\CHTEditor\CHTEditor.exe
get rid of the extra \ and it will work.
Cookie also recommends you remove 1.7 before installing 1.8. (i think, not read the thread in a week.)
CHT problem resolved!
I reinstalled CHT Editor 1.8.5.1 and now it is working correctly.
The 2 other issues are still a current problem.
I'm now receiving this following message: "Voice Command has quit due to low memory. Close running programs and try again"
I do not have any programs running and I have not selected the Voice Command function.
Can someone please explain.
Now that CHT v1.8.5 is installed, I am unable to change the main wallpaper...there was no problem with CHT v1.7.
How do I remove the previous CHT v1.7?
Help please?
Still looking for some assistance regarding the pop up message "Voice Command has quit due to low memory. Close running programs and try again"
According to running CleanRam program 271.23 MB Current Free Memory.
I do not have any other programs running.
The message "Windows Live Hotmail is temporarily unavailable. Please try again." has resolved itself and is no longer appearing.
Thank you samsamuel for you response!
Thanks!
Sorry to be so persistence, but I need some assistance with these issues.
I have cleanRam & Clear Temp and run these programs often to clear up as much as possible.
I have read that going into the Task manager and closing some of the tasks will help, but I don't know how to go about it. Once I have opened the program, I don't know what to do and which programs can be closed.
Can someone please give a step by step guide on how to do this?
Thank you.
Advise needed.

I use 2.12.50.2_2 with TMO works great in my area, give it a try, you pretty much can change radios all you want and will not hurt anything else, as long as you stick with a x.x.50.x.x radio ..
umm if you dont use voice command
dissable voice comand in settings/menu/all settings /personal / buttons, and you should be good to go!? lol i never got that but i have disabbled long press send key for voice command

Dragion, I'm in Providence and having great results with 2.11.50.20. Battery is good, signal is great.
Thank you for all the replies!
jiggahj,
I actually need to use voice command with both my BT headset & BT handsfree in my car...disabling it is not an option for me.
watcher64,
I went into CHTeditor and changed the wallpaper mode to "Regular" and still was unable to change it...not sure why I can't do this?
watcher64 & mikeeed,
I would like to try both of your suggestions, but don't know how to go about it.
The ROM I currently have came with the radio 2.10.50.28_2, so I haven't changed it. I'm currently have been getting better reception lately with "H" connections when I turn off the wifi...plus wifi seems to be more stable.
My battery last all day, since I charge my HD2 each and every night. I have both BT & wifi on most of the time...I've never went below 20% even with heavy web surfing.
Should I stick with this radio version or try the ones you guys suggested?
I would need to be directed in how to change it and I would greatly appreciate the help in doing so!
Please keep the suggestion coming...!
Dragion, try this to get your wallpaper back:
Remove the data found at HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\HomeBackgroundPath (don't delete the key, just the valuedata)

That's an entry in the registry in your phone, you'd need a registry editor to be able to make the change. There's several free ones available here, I personally use PHM Regedit. However, if you're not familiar with doing things in the registry it's something you'll need to be very careful with.
@watcher, even though he's trying to make the change in CHT (as opposed to using an HDWall cab), that reg value can still clear up "stuck" backgrounds where the image won't display at all...doesn't always work, but it might be able to clear this up.

Agreed , but I was just not sure what he was NOT seeing was the sense background, it does not change when you change the wallpaper from the home settings, if you have CHT installed ...
Thanks guys for all the advice.
watcher64,
Yes, I'm only trying to change the wallpaper on the home screen.
I had no problem changing it with CHT 1.7...only with CHT 1.8.5.
Nothing is selected in CHTeditor.
I did not install HDwall cab...unless it is part of Core Cell Series ROM.
I manage to change the Today screen, but nothing else.
Lock screen & Home screen are both the same.
The background with 1.8.5 is black with weather.
sirphunkee,
I do have PHM Regedit installed, but don't understand the process on what to do.
Can you guide me step by step?
I'm wondering if the Core Cell ROM conflicts with CHT 1.8.5?
Thanks again for the help.
