Hi All,
Firstly I would like to kiss ass to the forum for all the help it has provided me over the years. I have had many a problem solved here due to the software provided by the idiots at MS who despite telling us the world is becoming increasingly mobile are failing to deliver when it comes to their own OS. Anyways....
I have a problem I cannot solve because it may be unique - I want the SMS and Email sound notifications!!! Yes I know, the shame of it.
I was forced to hard reset my MDA Vario III a couple of weeks ago and since then, the above notifications keep switching themselves off. They work for a bit, but then they uncheck themselves in the "play sound" box in the "start>settings>sounds & notifications>notifications" area.
I have checked the registry, but not being particularly familiar with the registry settings do not want to fiddle to much.
I'm thinking that perhaps there is some registry entry missing.
Anyway, the knowledge of your collective minds would be much appreciated!!
sounds like the opera beta problem. Have you installed it recently and does it coincide with your problem?
Yep. I have. Will uninstalling it solve the problem?

Uninstalling it will solve the problem, but they have fixed it in the latest beta, so if you still want Opera then I would suggest re-downloading the latest cab from Opera's site (29.07.2008 update).
Not sure about that I never got around to it because I flashed a new rom. give it a try. you could also try downloading it again as I think I remember reading that the latest version of the beta has this fixed.
you could also try a version from here

I'm using one of these at the moment. no sign of the problem.
Another problem solved!
Many thanks guys!!
Hi,
I have 3PAYG using with Hero. The problem I am facing is:
Whenever i install any ROM which is not customised for 3 mobile, then i am unable to run skype on it. I get an error and skype closes immediately after signing in. Even I am unable to get the 3 Favorites page while using this ROM.
But when i use 3 customised ROM, then i get all the features available from 3 including skype.
Is there a work around to fool 3 while still using a non-3 ROM. I did some search on this forum, but couldnt find anything relevant. Apologies, if this has been discussed somewhere else, in that case please can anyone give me alink to that thread.
Many thanks

I've been trying to work out exactly the same. Modaco 3.2 works great as that was based off a 3 Rom. Have you tried other 1.5 ROMs as i've not yet got round to seeing if it doesn't work because its incompatible with 2.1 or whether it is in fact that there is something hidden in the ROM from 3?

nope mate, i have tried just the v2.1 ROMS and unfortunately skype works on none of them. I think there are indeed some settings (root certificates, etc)
If some of the senior member can shed some light on this, it will be great.
if you could attach the skype apk here that might help. other than that, have you tried skype lite? available on the internet[tm]

says "sorry, we don't have skype coverage where you are" when i try to log on... can't tell you more, sry.
if it's anything like the way 3 validate sony ericsson phone then there will be a certificate that you have to install to use their services.
I may not be a hero owner but this is just an idea:
anyone that's flashed a WM rom will know that when the ROM is first installed it runs through a series of tasks set out by an .xml file.
The way networks brand their phones is through this .xml file, it contains logos to replace the boot screen and wallpaper, also it contains an instruction to install the certificates to the phone.
This is because its easier for the network's techies to just create something like this than modifying the ROM itself.
This is true also for sony ericsson phones, its called a custpack.
For WM its called ExtROM.
My question is this: is there anything (remotely) like an ExtROM/Custpack for android/hero ROMS?
Josh.
Not sure if this info is any help here guys but I have a unbranded generic white hero, non rooted on stock 1.5 using a 3 simcard and I am able to download both skype and messenger from the 3 site and can use no problems.
The build number on my phone is 2.73.405.66 hope this helps

But to get the free skype to skype calls that 3 offer I'm thinking you would probably have to use the version provided by 3?
Its the main reason I haven't upgraded to 2.1, free skype and free messenger is to good to lose, but please correct me if I'm wrong here
Thanks but that's not what we're looking for, as that's skype lite which requires you to use skype credit to receive calls. What we're looking for is "skype beta on 3" which uses a special number to dial out and doesn't require credit to receive calls. The program is on the market, but that version only works with 1.5 NOT 2.1.
Although I hear that an update is on its way soon.
any luck anyone..
i think it relates to how 3 customises its phones (there should be some way in which authenticates which phones have 3 ROM)...

Don't think that is the case, as I mentioned in an earlier post, I am not using a 3 rom and have no problems accessing planet 3 and downloading the skype and messenger applications.
As I am using the generic unbranded HTC rom I find it highly unlikely to have been customized by 3!
So maybe the problem is not so much something that is missing but more likely some thing in the roms that shouldnt be there? just a thought
any thought by senior members?

Right... i'd have a read through here as it explains the issue a little more

What i wrote on the other thread regarding trying to run this on a 2.1 based rom below. Please note i've now had no problem running it on any 1.5 based rom, and have heard even some 1.6 devices have it running perfectly on a rom never touched by three, straight from another carrier.
I'm no dev, but looking at logcat, it seems the 'skype on 3 beta' crashes when trying to write the 'skype service' contact to the phonebook.
it errors trying to write to *content uri:* contacts/people/(number)/extensions as far as i can tell through my basic understanding, is that writing in that method is not supported under anything later than 1.6. It has been replaced by a new method.
I hope either some dev can workout what to change or we'll have to wait until three let it escape/release it!!! As i've worked out how to take apart the apk but lost when it comes to smali.

Hey there,
Does anyone also own a Freedom Pro Keyboard ? It works to install the ****ty Firmware but i cannot connect the Keyboard with, so that the User defined Shortcuts are unable to manage .
They (according to their FAQ) know the Problem, but their solve doesnt
work.
So my question to you guys is if you solved this problem.
thx a lot for any helpful answers
I have had nothing but trouble with Freedom keyboards - I tried the Freedom Pro, but I could only get it to do the basic keyboard functions with my HD2, no special buttons or characters. I sold it to my wife who uses it with her Blackberry without any problems at all - possibly this is an issue with WM becoming defunct, developers can't be bothered to produce proper software for the platform any longer.
I remember I had issues with the Universal 2 before that - again, it works ok as a basic keyboard with the HD2, but both keyboards actually stopped working if I loaded the proper drivers!!
Unfortunately, with the departure of Stowaway/iGo, Freedom are in a monopoly position in this market.
Bottom line - if you want a basic keyboard of a good size and ease of use, it's ok, but don't imagine you are going to get fancy features based on my experience.

Ok, thx anyway for information ..
i bought it because of the ability to define Shortcuts
i think i sell it on ricardo / Ebay ..
but i've seen some other Keyboards somewhere in a I-net-Shop.
so hopefully i will find some handy Gear
update:
is it possible to inactivate the WM HID Software ?
maybe this would help .. or try another Bluetooth Stack ?
ok again update:
maybe they fixed something, but i downloaded a few minutes ago
the Firmware (its the File for Broadcomm BT Stack, message to all noobs like i am
installed it again and , hey , it works !!
thx because i was going to be angry ....!!

Hello guys, thanks for reading this and help me. I hope you can point me in the right direction. Here is my situation: I've been maintaining a custom ROM named MasterStock, it basically takes the tweaks and improvements of another's guy ROM (chuckybean) but keeping the styling and apps of the standard stock rom. The goal is to have a nice and quick ROM with the same "skin" that comes from factory.
Now my issue comes with the Samsung keyboard, I manage to include it on my rom, and it works. But the autocomplete function does not work at all. It just does not suggest or corrects any word at all. I cannot understand what Im missing to include in my rom.
Anybody has any clue? Or can think in something I'm probably missing?
Before you reply something, I would like to please avoid messages saying there are better keyboards apps out there, and I know you probably can give me tons of alternatives to replace this keyboard. However my truly intention is to make this one to work, and give the users the ability to have a complete and functional ROM with the style of the stock version.
Many thanks in advance!!

I think there should be file with content for autocomplete. I can't remember what, and where it is. Probably /data/something. Do research, it is the same on every JB wirh TW I thing, so you can use expirience from SII, SIII users...
