I've uploaded the file - the url is: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0fykWxF7kIIczMxeWx6ckhDTW8/view?usp=sharing

Folks, I have just captured the UK OTA - the file is called Blur_Version.21.11.56.peregrine_tescogb.tescogball.en.GB.zip and is 414MB in size. If someone tells me where, I am happy to upload it. I tried to install it, but since I have replaced the stock recovery it fails. If anyone can turn...

Loney, Things that aren't working for me: * Launcher 7 settings can't be altered (changes don't "save") * apk installs are hitty-missy. Sometimes moving an apk into /data/apps and rebooting will work, other times I need to install it again by clicking on it in a file explorer. * Fast mode app...

Hi Loney, Installed just now and all seems well so far - well done! John

UK Nook glowlight running software V1.2 Folks, just to let the Brits know that this kernel (build 166) installs and works perfectly in UK glowlight nook's running V1.2 software. John

Replacement Kernel Folks, Just to let you all know I have managed to install Guevor's kernel (build 166) in a UK glowlight and it works fine - multitouch is working, the glowlight switches on and off, etc. Fast mode might work, but to be honest I can't really tell any difference! After lots of...

My experience slightly different: Nov 10 - boots and is running fine on my UK OneV Nov 11 Boots, but sticks at "Wifi turning on" as reported above John

Sadly, there has not (to my knowledge) been an update for the Glowlight. I spent a while hunting for one last night. John

Curses, foiled again! The US nook glowlight has no downloadable firmware..... grrrr

Well that's pretty straightforward :) the language is called "English" after all! <grins, ducks and runs> John

Anyone tried "downgrading"? Hmmm, is the implication from this that it might be possible to "downgrade" to the US version of the software in order to root the device and gain the benefits of full access to android? I don't know about the other UK owners, but I have no intention of ever buying a...

Further to my last... if you copy the 2 "tinynoot" zips into your root directory then if you get stuck in a boot loop you can simply boot to clockwork recovery and then do a factory reset rather than a full restore. You need to reinstall tinynoot but it's better than starting from scratch. John

Hi Guys, Another new UK owner here. I'm no dev, but I am an incorrigible tinkerer. Just to save anyone else the trouble, don't bother trying to copy apk's into the \data\apps directory and reboot to install them - that just gets you into a boot-loop and you need to do a full restore! John

I have bluetooth permanently on and usually get 6-10mA in standby. John

I emailed Vodafone to tell them that signal strength in my home area had declined. I didn't think it would do any good, but at least I got a good laugh out of it. Have a read of these instructions: <Quote> Please perform hard reset to get better network coverage on your phone. To perform hard...

The whole issue with needing the hard-spl is that it allows you to upload and flash a home-cooked ROM that has not been signed with a HTC-authorised certificate. No certificate=no flash, so even if the bootloader is hard-coded (which I don't think it is, since it can be upgraded) we can't do...

even if you sync wirelessly your phone uses the activesync settings to dictate how it deals with your exchange server - have a go at changing the settings and see if I'm right :-) You can add folders by going to Menu...Tools...Manage folders. Hold down the stylus on the folder that you want to...

Try changing the "options" for email in activesync - you are probably only asking it to synchronise the last few days of mail. John

You could try unlocking the extended rom and then deleting the carrier.pxp file that is in there. That would stop *any* configuration I think - but htat might be more of a nuisance if you end up roaming. (This is a GSM-specific answer by the way. Don't know about CDMA) John

Actually they now use a "Hall Effect Switch" which does exactly the same function, but without the moving metal contacts. Hall Effect chips are about the size of the head of the match in your picture! John

My pro is rock-steady - I've only ever had crashes when larking about with new software. Much more stable and responsive than the 750 that came before it. John

Active Call Plugin I've got the active call plugin working on mine. I copied the relevant registry entries across from my 750 and all the dll's that were referred to in the registry. John

I unlocked the ext ROM using the cheetah unlocker tools for the Treo 750. There is around 14MB, with about 5MB free, but I ended up locking it again because it broke Windows Live Mesh (it has the same flaw as Outlook in that it assumes the first writable area after the main storage is the...

I've installed "Wei enterprise's USB to PC" as all of the usual suspects refused to work. This one works - but only intermittently. There is a conflict between these and the Palm programme that installs activesync. I have made it work by keeping an eye on the phone screen and "cancelling"...

I have an unlocked Treo Pro that I use in hte UK on Vodafone. The "beacon" lights up on mine when I have voicemail, but unless you're in a darkened room it's very hard to see! Would have been better with a good old red LED rathern than the white one I think. John

Some screenshots Hi folks, A couple of screenshots of 96dpi on a Treo Pro just to show you what it looks like. If anyone wants a particular view showing, just ask. John

I will try and put some screenshots together tomorrow. I have been running RealVGA at 96dpi for nearly a month now and have *never* switched back to 128dpi since installing it. The only faults I notice are the lack of icons for SMS messages in the threaded view and the compacted battery icon -...

Hear Hear!! Let's get cracking - in every sense! John

Slide 2 Play Hey folks - A_C has updated Slide 2 Play and it now works with the Treo Pro! Mine is running in 96dpi though - your mileage may vary. John

Works fine on Treo Pro @ 96dpi A_C, Thanks for a quick fix! This app now works fine on a Treo Pro at 96dpi using realvga. Treo Pro is now the finest phone around! John

Treo Pro has full GPS Hi NM8, The tro pro has full GPS and does not need a data connection to work. It does however use an internet based service to download ephemeris data for the GPS satellites to speed up getting a fix. I use Tomtom and TGPS software on my pro and both work aboslutely...

Well you could try the Treo Pro. I have just upgraded from a 750 (which was great) and it is a really cool device John

Hardware or software? If you're looking for a hardware update, then the Treo Pro (also known as the 850 internally) has been released and works on GSM networks. In the US there is the 800w on CDMA. Software-wise, there has been no official update to WM6.1 - but there is a very good "cooked"...

Palm "Special Sauce" add ons Folks, I am probably in a minority, but I can't stand plain-old Windows Mobile's phone screen and dialler - I much preferred the Palm flavour as found on hte Treo 750. If you're of the same mind, then the good news is that I have managed to install the...

Ext ROM on Treo Pro Folks, I'd just like to report that the Cheetah/750 extended ROM unlocking tool works on the Pro! Read and write access is available and programs can be installed to it. Cheers all, John

I share your pain! hi, I'm with you - I hate the standard WM dialer. I've just upgraded to a Treo Pro from a 750 and I am not enjoying the experience. If you got anywhere with your request could you share it with me? Thanks, John

Treo Pro Forum Hi, I'd like to add my voice to the request for a treo pro forum. It's the successor to the 750 and it's made by HTC - seems clear to me! John

Akachay, If you have done this: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Cheetah_Upgrade and it is not working, then you need to install the hard-spl. Instructions for this are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334100 Does this help you? John

You need to disable the "Active Call" today plugin. It is "invisible" so you will need SKtools or similar to do it. This will also remove the palm in-call enhancements. hope this helps, John

Hi folks, Does anyone know if the Uni has an accessible UART (hardware serial port) anywhere on the motherboard? I want to physically connect to a device that needs serial access. I'm happy with level-shifting from 3.3V to RS232, which I assume I'll need to do - just need ot know where there...

It doesn't work properly on my Universal - I usually run it in RealVGA mode, but even in QVGA it doesn't appear right. The display seems to be doubling the pixels and the touchscreen response is way off. It works perfectly on my Treo 750V though, which is my main phone so I can't complain too...

This is a great ROM Ranju, many thanks for your excellent work. I have had 7.7 on my Uni since it appeared on the forum and have not had any problems with it whatsoever. Keep up the good work John

Screen lock - usually works for me Hi, I have the 6.1 version from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374381 and the palm screenlock works fine. It occasionally fails to activate, but a re-boot sorts it out. John

I had the same problem with mine. I eventually solved it by playing a hot-air rework blower over the radio chips, It's a bit of a drastic job, but it worked for me. Here is the background: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1757576 John

Registry entries My registry shows the following entries: DLL \windows\ActiveCallPlugin.dll Enabled 0x1 hWnd 0x7C07AAB0 Options 0x1 Order 0x2 Selectability 0x2 Type 0x6 Hope this helps, John

Orange voicemail Dixter, you need to install some extra settings to get Orange voicemail to behave itself. Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36422&d=1175546095 Works for me :-) John

www.sparkfun.com has some great tutorials on hot-air soldering and reworking of surface mount components. If you do get a rework station, I recommend a lot of practice on some dead gadgets before you risk your uni! Best of luck with it, John

Summoner, a rework station is a hot-air blower used for soldering the very small components found in mobiles and micro-electronics. It is possible to melt all the solder under all the pins of a chip at the same time and if you use a little flux to prevent it ixidising when it melts, you can get...
