Hello Guys,
First I just want to say I love the forum, read many threads on here last night and despite being a total noob to flashing, developing etc I thought I'd have ago and flashing my G1.
Well it went well, love the new software, but I have one problem - I can't download from the Market place - whatever application I choose to download just stays as 'downloading' but nothing actually comes down - my data connection works just fine, with normal internet browsing working normally.
I wonder if anyone could make a suggestion - please find my phone set up data
HTC G1/Dream
Firmware 2.1-update1
Baseband version 62.505.20.17H_2.22.19.26I
Kernel version 2.6.34-cyanogenmod
Mod Version CyanogenMod-5.0.8-DS
Build Number EPE54B
Thanks again!
Also noticed that despite inside the notifications menu, I have the LED turned on - when I receive a text the light doesn't flash?
Thanks
Ok, thats one problem fixed - the issue with downloads looks like a Marketplace issue - so that's all good!
So, just one other thing - when voicemails or texts are received the light doesn't flash - even though I've got it set up correctly in the settings....
Anyone else with this problem or have any tips?
The notificaton LEDs only work when the screen is off. You really don't need them when it's on.
Sure, but even when my screen is off and I get a text the LED doesn't blink.
Try checking that the missed call LED is checked under call settings.
All of a sudden without doing anything at all, it's working now - very odd.
This new OS is pretty Juicy on the battery, but not sure if its the fact I've been getting to know it all day.
A bug found by the looks of things - none of my contacts will save?
I've added the same person 3 times and it says saving contacts but when I got back in to contacts it isn't there .......anyone offer some suggestion(s)?
I've tried to synch with google and nothing happens - why doesn't the contact save to the phone or SIM? I'm not overly interested in storing contacts on Google - the standard firmware for the phone stores them on the phone/sim - where in the settings does it dictate where a contact is stored to ?
Thanks
Solved, the contact wasn't displayed as some of the boxes under contact settings weren't ticked - why on earth would I want to "hide" my contacts?? Oh well ......thanks

Hi People!
I simply don't know what to do. Somehow, my SMS sound disappeared -- too, there is no blinking, no vibration, nothing. can please somebody help me and somehow tell me where the error could be. it's set right in the alerts dialog, when i do a preview there, it works. but a new sms seems not to launch the alert. i remember fiddling around with the regkeys that manage the messaging accounts - maybe there is a naming error?
any help is greatly appreciated...
thanks a lot,
keep posting

Try to go through:
Start - Settings - Sounds and Notifications and then set the sound/vibartion as you like.
thanks, but ..
.. i already tried that, like a hundred times ..
the problem seems to lie elsewhere, as for example in the SMS account name.. fiddling around there may have caused this problem..
BUT i am planning doing a rom upgrade, so the problem will be gone, i think..
btw, is there a generic (HTC, german) ROM version that includes the internal gps-chip? my version: 1.16.407.2 and external rom: 1.16.407.101
Solution found on www.pocketpctweaks.com
as i pointed out the problem started after tweaking my messaging accounts. i now restored them (from a backup i intelligently did) and my sms sound is here again. the "ActiveSync" and "Hotmail" Accounts need to be there in order to have a sms notification ......
\\HKLM\\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\
this is _not_ what i call good programming ..
I don't know if anyone else has encountered this problem, but it seems to me my SMS/MMS manager is messed up. I had a SMS conversation with 2 contacts and they received all my messages at once, 3 times.. I also received several errors at once "message could not be delivered, stored as concept" (needed to press 10 times OK). I received a MMS but couldn't download it (mms worked perfect with my previous phone). I sent 3 MMS's, but only the first one was received. When I try to open "sent items" my manager "blocks" (and does weird things when I keep scrolling down), but I can go back to the other folders. Is it normal that every message I sent is stored in Outbox?
Another q, how can I display "time" in my topbar? I know it was possible with my P3600, but since HTC Home it's a bit difficult to find this (non-existing) option.
Thanks.
I don't have this problem with my Snap - I have an unlocked HTC-branded device (not obtained from a network provider), OS details as per my signature. You?
To get the clock to show in the Windows Mobile Standard icon bar you need ClockOnTop.exe - there's no facility to put the time and date there otherwise (as you could with Windows Mobile Professional).
See here.
Thanks, I got the clock installed now.
I also have an unbranded HTC device. ROM: 1.19.404.1, Radio: 3.45.25.30A.
So you can access "sent items" without a problem? And your outgoing messages, are they stored in "Outbox" or "Sent items"?
I did something wrong during the first setup of my device:
When asked for my internet connection, I pressed "cancel" since my internet provider wasn't listed. Therefore the setup of my device wasn't completed and that's why my message system was driving mad. Probably also the result of receiving a few messages before completion.
I performed a hard reset, chose a random provider and everything's working fine now!
SOLVED!

Allright mate
You got it solved!

Well I had the same problem and it was really screwed up, my settings were listed and applied. That night it sent my messages time after time to all the contacts I sent messages to previously. I thought there would be something wrong in the network but my operator ensured me the messages originated from my device at a +- 10 minute pace.
I contacted HTC support in the Netherlands, I was told to do a hard reset and it was fixed. I recommend hard resetting all new Snap devices upon first use to eliminate this problem. I also received a message from a fellow new-Snap-owner who had the same problem, so watch out with this as it will tear up your phone bill!
My Snap is unlocked HTC branded and everything else seems perfectly fine!
Thanks for the clockontop tip btw!
ozone unlocked
does anyone know what i need to do to add mms settings or how to unlock these settings ,when i go into the settings everything is greyed out new edit etc,i have all of my other settings done internet etc im useing this on tmobile and i have wm 6.5 onit email me at [email protected] if anyone knows.
Hi. I'm new here, so sorry if I have stupid questions.
Just got my HTC snap (two days ago) and I really love it. It's two days with 3G on with normal use and average talk, and still ~75% battery left. Awesome!
Now stright to the business.
1) Yesterday installed skyfire. It looks like ok, but, after lauching it, i see just white screen. I can go to any kind of web address, it looks like it's loaded - but screen is just white. I can see that the cursor "feels" links, but still - everything is white.
FYI: when I use IE which is installed, I see that sometimes pages are loaded, but during this I receive few warining about "wron settings in internet connection". Therefore, maybe there is some place where I could change the settings? I use 2g/3g.
2) one thing is quite annoying. When I have coppied all my contacts from outlook to phone, I noticed, that the order of contacts is way different I used to. Previously I had SE p1 with Symbian, and I could change, how I want to see the contacts: Name, Surname or Surname,Name. Now I cannot. Is there any way of fixing contacts or just to edit them with hands?
3) When I am on the contact or somth, and I push "call" (green button) I hear short beep. Is it possible to swich it off?
Thanks in advance!

I tried it for over 2 months now and I still can't get the beep off.
sorry to hijkck thread but i'm having issues using skyfire over activesync (using PC's internet connection) Works ok over tmobile 3G/EDGE but somehow i cant find setting to allow connection over activesync. is it even possible?
My HD2 has stopped displaying conversation history. When I get a new SMS I can see the 'preview' in the All Messages screen, but when I tap it I just get a blank history, with the senders name at the top. The phone is still functional, so it's not crashing, it's just not displaying any history.
Any ideas? If it's of any consequence I have Swype and TouchPal installed as additional keyboards - Don't see how that will affect this though.
Appreciate any help.
EDIT - I should say, restarting the device does not help matters, and if I switch to Traditional Mode I can see all the messages. I have the SMS Fix supplied by HTC installed, and can see the message count next to the name on Conversation Mode, so all the messages are still stored - just not viewable.
double check your phones date and time are set correctly, I saw this when i restored txts after a flash a week or so ago, and i'd forgotten to set the date.
Thanks for the reply mate. Time & date are set correct though, just double checked.
Does anyone think reinstalling the SMS Fix / patch might resolve it?
Yes it did - if anyone gets this same error - a reinstall of the Hotfix worked. Must have screwed up somehow.
Hi all,
I'm using the factory Messages program & I noticed that in some conversations (not all) my replies are misplaced.
They should be the last message in the threaded sms, but they're not.
I did a hard reset, but am still having the same problems.
Please advice,
D
Are you using a 3rd party sms app? What ROM are you using?
Have the same issue - factory, bone stock device. All my incoming SMS's are 4 hours behind, so they often show up far before my latest outgoing SMS in a conversation.
Some people recommended changing your time-zone around to adjust for the difference when I searched around, but then the rest of my phone gets messed, e.g. email timestamps are then wrong.
It's a network issue I think. I have an unlocked TELUS HTC Hero and an unlocked Virgin Mobile HTC Legend and both suffer the same timestamp problem (mine is 4 hours behind) when used on Rogers Wireless. I thought it might be an Android related problem, but my Sony Ericsson X10 didn't have the problem. /shrug
There is an app that will fix the problem though. Search for “SMS Time Fix” by Matthew Precious.
I'm using stock app. stock ROM.
Right now my setting is:
Menu > Settings > Date & time > Automatic (Use network-provided values).
I'm gonna un-check Automatic & select my own timezone see if that fixes the issue.
Will report back.
Thanks all.

Everything stock here too. Try the app posted above to fix it.
ok,
downloaded & installed the SMS Time Fix by Matthew Precious.
But now I have another problem:
When the newly incoming message arrives, it'll show on the status bar. When I pull down the bar to go to that message, I can't find it. meaning the new message is deleted automatically.
The only program I can blame is the SMS Time Fix program.
I uninstalled the program, & so far so good.
weird..
