Guys, I have an S5 running Cyanogen Lollipop and Philz Touch 6.26.2 as the recovery. I was experimenting with flashing a new camera .ZIP earlier today but BEFORE doing so I used Philz to create a backup. The flash of the .zip for the camera went wrong and ended up prompting the phone to hang on...

Having been a very proud HTC Desire owner for almost a year, I upgraded a month ago to the Desire HD - at first I loved it, despite being massively larger it seemed like a superior device. But now, a month on I'm charging the old Desire back up and preparing to transition back to it, in my...

Guys, I've had almost every HTC since the early days of the original XDA, I then migrated to a Blackberry Storm2 for a short while but now back in the HTC camp and the proud owner of a Desire. I am with Vodafone and have many apps installed ('Stocks' and 'Footprints' for instance!) that I...

As a forum owner myself, I appreciate the need to fund the site, however adding a sponsored advert between EVERY SINGLE POST within a thread is just ridiculous. It devalues the forum and makes printing a page very frustrating, as well as simply reading a page!! Please please reduce it to every...

Guys, I'm trying to get my Kaiser to VPN into our Linux based IP Cop VPN server, using a certificate that has installed fine. I enter all VPN details, the phone connects its 3G first, then attempts to connect the VPN - on our server side logs we can see the connection attempt, authentication...

Its rare that I would make a post like this but I just wanted to advise anyone else looking for a speedy efficient rom to go checkout Garmin's DK7 - having used almost every HTC pocket pc since the very first XDA, this is the first Flash that I've been happy with! The rom is speedy, great...

Guys, I've always had HTC phones, since the original XDA - back in those days there were perhaps only 3/4 cooked roms available and so the choice was fairly simple. I'm looking to flash my Kaiser with a rom that's speedy, feature packed and has something particularly snazzy about it!! I've had...

I've had HTC/XDA's for the past 7 years, starting with the basic XDA through to the XDA2, XDA2s, XDA Exec and currently the XDA Hermes...but they just ain't that cool anymore - I used to enjoy using them, they were original and the OS was swish but now they're slow, cumbersome and just not that...

I want an IPhone but can't get one, so would like to turn my Hermes into something that resembles the OS/animations/smoothness, but from what I gather, most of the current mods merely change the Today screen with little otherwise effect? Am I right here or is there a mod yet that really changes...

Guys, I have searched but can't find any results - my keyboard is just naff, I've lost my full stop (due to the key getting trapped when opening/closing) and now my T button doesn't work unless I press it incredibly hard. Anyone know how easy/hard it is to remove and perhaps check for dirt...

Guys, I've gone 'Black' v3.00 and love it, lightening quick compared to any other rom that I've tried so far. However I just cannot seem to get my MMS settings in there. Schaps's rom was the only rom I've flashed to that catered immediately for MMS with all settings included because it...

Guys, Been testing the various roms available for some time now, XDALive, Black, Schaps etc but just can't find a single Rom that allows the phone to function as its supposed to, i.e. Fast, efficient and usable. XDA Live and Black appeared to be great at first, until I installed TomTom and a...

Guys, Since upgrading to WM6 Black Edition v2.00 my vodafone MMS is no longer working, the phone seems to connect to HSDPA automatically spontaneously but it then downloads nothing? Nor does it download the initial text telling me that there is an MMS to download? I've tried reinstalling the...

Does anyone else find that with the Hermes, you'll be tapping away in the text messaging panel when all of a sudden the keyboard just tops working? The onscreen keyboard still works but it takes a reset to get the keyboard working again?

I bought an original pack of 3 brand new stylus from the O2 store, I've used the one but having sold the phone I no longer need the two brand new spares still in their original packaging. I'm looking for £6.50 for the two which INCLUDES shipping. If interested, email [email protected] p.s. If...

Guys, When using the on screen dialer I have to wait for the phone to catchup with me, I can't just tap the numbers in quickly - is there a tweak to get around this? I donb't want to turn off the sound effect/tone as I use tone dialing a lot during banking calls etc. Cheers, Ash

Just trying to unlock my Exec using the brilliant tool by BuzzDev - I rebooted into serial mode (which changed to USB when I plugged in my USB lead), I ran the flash utility and it stated that it was going to check the device. After this process finished it said it was going to start, although...

Just flashed my Exec to the latest ROM version from the O2 website, since doing so the thing seems a bit nippier and the latest TomTom went on without problems!! However...very frequently the screen kind of 'melts' into a red haze and then turns white! A Soft reset corrects this and all is back...

Guys, I've setup a partnership between my PC and Exec, when running syncronise though its not placing ALL of my Outlook contacts into my PocketPC, certain contacts (nothing special) just aren't put onto the phone. Whats going on? Also, I want to upgrade my roms etc, am I right in assuming...

I've got an Exec which I've had since last November. Its got a fair few apps on there, and will be annoyed to have to put it all back on after a rom upgrade, plus my contacts, hence I've refrained from upgrading... ...but the speed of the thing is painful now, and I'm thinking perhaps its time...

It did work, but something happened and now it doesnt!? I've reinstalled the Exec_Connections.cab file that someone nicely posted, I select Basic etc and it runs through the procedure. When asked I select UK and PostPay and it then reboots my Exec. My O2 Active connection seems to work fine...

Hey guys, I'm now using a Universal (loving it!) but had an XDA2s (missing its speed, efficiency, size etc etc). Trouble is, just sold the XDA2s on EBay for a measily £165 and annoyed that I've misplaced the Stylus just at the point of packaging the thing up ready to ship! I don't suppose...

Guys, Just got this GPS to go with my Xda Exec, it seems to work fine and is a lovely little unit, but only functions correctly when using with SirfIII compatible software? Any software that doesn't have Sirf support doesn't seem able to switch the GPS into its NMEA mode?! Any PocketPC apps I...

Here's my comments after just over a week of use so far (O2 Exec Corp install with GBP Weather, IPToday, MagicButton installed) 1. Frustratingly slow when typing text messages, when using the inside keyboard there appears to be a delay between pressing the key and the letters actually appearing...

XDA Exec in Corp mode Starting my Inbox for text messages from the Today page is taking 4 seconds, I miss the speed of my XDA2s...am I missing something!? My Today Screen is virtually empty as I have virtually no plugins running in an attempt to get this thing running smoothly!? Once Outlook...

Since rebooting my O2 XDA Exec into Corporate mode, I seem to have no GPRS nor 3G setup as neither will connect to send MMS messages - any ideas?

I have searched here but can't find the answer anywhere but... - O2 activated my Sim card apparently 24 hours ago yet my new 3G sim still isn't working in my XDA Exec - therefore I'm assuming the salesperson took the Sim Card serial number down incorrectly. Today the sales girl on the phone...

Received my Exec today, thanks to EVERYONE that has provided Reg hacks and advice on this excellent forum. I've got the following questions... 1. I installed the Reg hack to reduce fonts from 900 to 700 and it appears to have taken effect but ONLY on the dropdown menu when within File...

Hi guys, Recently installed the latest ROM offered by O2 onto my XDA2s, having firstly been incredibly frustrated that I'd lost all my txt messages and installed applications, I have since found that the phone locks up almost daily now - it particularly seems to be whenever switching the phone...

Hi guys, Got a problem really, have my home PC setup as a kind of home cinema, i.e. the PC is upstairs, got a DVI cable routing to my projector, and using the Logitech Di Novo keyboard/mouse with the Bluetooth Hub - all works brilliantly, BUT I now want to use a webcam and mic to chat to my...

Hi guys, I currently have a Nokia 6600, from the factory its video recording software is naff, however I simply downloaded some new software that upgraded its recording time etc. I have an XDA 2s arriving tomorrow, just wondering if there's anything out there that'll allow 30fps recording, or...
