is there way how to overclock the XDA? I was able to install the JS Overclocking Software, but the unit hangs when set at 236 mhz.
there is a link trying to look for it.......I read about this......hmmm! :shock:
overclocking is possible, but whenever it goes to suspend it hard resets the device (at least it did that for me)
i strongly disrecommend it...
Again I have to ask, is it worth the instability, and possible damage to the unit for a few extra Mhz? I will never understand the need to overclock. Would your really notice it?
Yes, if you have several apps running, you will notice it, but I don't think it's worth doing it...
Hi,
I'm experiencing some very noticable lag when it comes to switching applications; especially when the XDA is turned off and a phone call is received.
From my own testing, when I call my XDA from a landline telephone, it rings twice from the landline phone (or so) before the XDA even powers up and then switches to the phone application (which can sometimes take two or three seconds) - by this time, the call has been routed through to voicemail because the call wasn't picked up in time - Argh!
To help speed things up a bit, I make sure that there are only a few applciations open at any given time, but I'm thinking of running the JS Overclock software that is available at http://www.pocketpccity.com/software/pocketpc/JS-Overclock-2001-1-12-ce-pocketpc.html - has anyone else used this, and if so, what did you think of it?
Thanks,
I use the overclock program, and have NEVER experienced a problem with it.
Generally, I'll leave the XDA default. If I'm running a program that needs more horsepower, I'll crank it up. If I think I might be away from a charger for a long time, I might crank it down to save the battery.
Works very well for me.
I'm getting a Hurricane soon.
Why is there like no traffic in this forum?
maybe cuz there are only 3 ppl who have it yet
I just bought one off eBay. Should be here in a few days. I hope someone figures out how to do a WM5 upgrade on this device. If not, it is still a cool phone.
I have one to. I even got tomtom mobile working It involved a regedit tweak, to set the screen from 130 pixels to 138 but it does the trick haha
But... It's got a t-mobile rom in it.
So I want another rom or a rom update. This rom freezes up sometimes when i'm being called, it just keeps vibrating and the buttons don't work anymore. Thus, I'm looking for either a qtek rom, or one from orange or the imate or something. I hear that qteks roms are the most reliable. Is this true?
When anybody here has got some info or something to help me out, it would be very very very greatly appreciated. If i can help anybody out with additional info, just drop me a line!

With WM6, I had matched my bluetooth earphone with prophet,then I can see the BT headphone symbol on dialing menu.However, if I reboot Prophet, the connection will lost,when I making a call, it won't auto connect to my BT earphone(the WM5 rom did),I have to open setting->connect>BT rematch it to use my earphone.
The problem also happens if,
1.First build connection between phone and BT earphone.
2.Take away the phone only(far enough to let them unable to communicate)
3.Take back the phone and make a call. The BT connection won't re-connect untill you re-matching it.
It makes me very inconvience, thanks a lot if someone can help me to fix it.
Thank you!
I have the very same problem in all of PDAViet's roms. After soft reset the bluetooth partnership setting is gone (although the symbol of the paired device is still there..) I have asked for a fix several times but no one seems to care.. Very strange that only a few people seem to make regular use of their bluetooth headset....

Why do you complain so unsympatically? Remember that you flashed your device yourself. Nobody forced you, nobody let you pay for the software. You downloaded all by yourself a file that a smart person somewhere in Vietnam or Thailand or Russia or where ever, has put together becourse his hobby is to fool around with his PDA. That same person was so friendly to let the whole world join in on his party.
But don't complain when that person don't like to spend his time on your problems, for as far we know his doesn't have a BT headset at all and isn't interested in that functionality. It will become a whole different piece of meat when you had purchased the ROM, but you haven't....... did you....?
Cool...
rondol1 - I like your thinking, my sentiments exactly.
is there anyone can help?
Same sproblem with other bluetooth devices
I think it is not just a BT headset problem but a BT stack problem. I'm using a BT GPS and I had to re-pair GPS and Prophet each time I use (althoughit seems like it is already paired)
It is irrelevant maybe but similar problem exist on e-mails. I create an account for my email provider, download e-mails, but after a reset it looks like my e-mail setting are gone (have to re-configure it) But even when it seems settings are gone I can see it on my today plugin that I have such number of e-mails ( I can get to see them)

I did NOT "complain" about the problem not being fixed so far, but about the missing reaction of some of this community when I posted the question about the status of this problem on new ROMs several times (which this forum should be there for) and there was just no answer at all. Because I do not want to flash my device with every new "release" only to find out that the problem is still there. I am indeed aware of the fact that not everyone is using BT functionality and that a new OS manually adapted to an "older" device is something that cannot be free of issues from the beginning.
Any change on this behaviour with the new PDAViet ROM 4.0.0.0.6 Touch? Anyone tried?
Same problem
Thanks for All and for every thing they did to make prophet for WM6 but this bluetooth problem is really killing me also every time i am using my car bluetooth i have to pair
Same problem in all rom's
Have tried almost all rom's, same problem.
The problem seems not to be releated to the diffrent BT stacks. Have tried different. Also it is not related to the BT devices. Have used Handfree. Stereo headset. GPS unit. Serial ports on remote PC etc. All have the same problem. Works when paired. Then after a soft reset unit are still in the BT list. But they have all have to be re paired to work.
Surely have something to do, with the units loosing most, or some of the settings after reset. Its an anoying problem, which we all will have to look into.
All the new rom's are nice to have, and to play with. But if we wants the rom's to be good for regular and daily use. We sure needs to fix this problem.
I will start to do my own little investigation, trying to fix the problem.
The problem is the same in all rom's. So if its solved in one rom, I'm pretty sure its solved in all roms. (99% sure , I think)

I know why this is but so far I havn't figured out how to solve it.... the problem is that settings are stored in the ram and not the rom... the way we need to get it to work is have the regestry moved to the extrom and that way it can be writen to directly without having to keep the regestry in the ram..... this can be done but I havn't fully understood how this is don't because I've been trying so hard to figur uot the X button problem... but I'm reading up on how to do that

Thats correct. Seeting in RAM are lost, and there by Bluetooth pairing, email settings etc. Now knowing what causes the problem, some one clever, sure will some up with a solution. Will try to se if I can contribute with anything.

Strange thing is, I've tried a few WM6 ROM, but never had any problems with lost emailsettings. I use it a lot, and just as everybody, I have to do a soft reset, once in a while...
So, the RAM storage as you describe isn't lost in all cases but also written to ROM.
As for BT I only use my gps-receiver and even that one only now and then It seems t work fine, but to be honest most of the time I've flashed my Prophet between several times....
I've the same problem with BT : always working with BT GPS, always loosing my BT Headset (try with 3 differents Headsets ...).
Be with devellop's team for correct this probem, and not with guy who critic this post without an BT Headset .... This is a forum and the critic is here to help the building of a 'very good' and more stabe as possible WM6 Rom ...
All together for the future ....

try change your battery or just pull out your battery overnight, i'm sure you will experience this problem. Sometimes on my phone when battery goes below 50% if I reset will loose setting sometimes. Just annoying but i can live with it.
The only way to keep your bluetooth, wifi and email settings all the time without worries is to use WM5.
If someone wants to try the bug, just soft-reset the phone while connected to the PC via activesync.
I guess that you will lose your settings (i'm not 100% sure because I'm now using WM5).
okeee.....
That are things I didn't try indeed. But at the other hand, what hould I want to do all that?
Tried the battery-change right away. Everything is still in order, no settings missing, time and date still as it should, email working as it allways did.
I did shut down my device first though.

You might be one of the lucky ones then. I believe majority of us looses settings at various times. what model specs are your device do you have anyway? is it new when u purchased? the reason i asked cuz somewhere i read there is a "button cell battery" might be a wizard thing not prophet devices.

I did buy my S200 new, without any branded OS, that means straight from Qtek. It's a G4, other specs Im willing to tell when you can precise what you want to know.
But... I don't want to be arrogant... when I read the many bug-reports I get the feeling that a majority don't use their device as it is supposed to. If you imagine that it is a small device with very limited hardware specs, it's not hard to understand that it isn't as foolprove as your desktop computer...
But again, it's just a feeling I get by reading many post, I also know that some of you have serious issues that cannot be explained from maluse point of view.
hey, i have a uk htc hd2, i have had it since last march 2010, all has been good, no problems(love this phone),it running standard ROM 1.72.110.4, radio 2.15.50.02_2
my earpiece speaker has stopped working(was fine yesterday, now dead) i have done a quick panic search, i wondered if there is a test code, diagnostic menu to test the speaker? if its broken, can i replace it my self?
i just want my phone working again, as when i make a call ppl can hear me i cant hear them
any advise, help would be great guys
ps my case has a strong magnet clip that when closed rests over the earpiece speaker, could that have damaged it?
I encountered the same problem - calls connected OK - people could hear me - I couldn't hear them....
Phone was returned to Jersey Telecom for repair and I've just received it back after 7 weeks ! ! !
HTC Touch Pro2 loan phone drove me nuts !
Hope you get better service
Regards
hey, quick update found a replacement earpiece on ebay, from hong kong, i know could be risky
i did find a dis-assembly video on you tube, was going to post links but i ant allowed too newbie yet lol
still tempted to fix it myself, feeling brave
i still couldnt find a text code or menu for the earpiece to test it, anyone got any ideas?
no one able to help me out, bit disappointed
no theres no audio test codes/modes.
Before you start taking it apart, you have done a soft reset and a hard reset, right? (my external stopped working today, no obvious reason, but a soft reset fixed it)
hey, thanks for your reply samsamuel
i did do a soft reset, and a hard reset, but no luck sadly
after the hard reset, recovered to an earlier spb backup i had, but still......
i thought htc would have had a test mode etc, but if they dont, then i cant test to find out definitively if the earpiece is the issue
does anyone know a good site for spares(for earpiece). i can only find ebay and a part from hong kong, not sure if it will be as good at the oem earpiece.....
hey, not sure if its any help to anyone, but i replaced my ear-piece and my phone is sorted now just though i would update my progress.....
through a dis-assembly video i found on this forum, and the ear-piece coming from hong kong(off ebay), my phone is sorted
and its not all that difficult to repair
one tip, try use a small glass sucker, to help you remove the LCD screen/digitizer
Hello! Why am I posting something about a quite old phone like this? Because I like very much the Blackberry phones but I hate their OS, so I have never bought one before. But now, a friend of mine gave me this HTC Cha Cha, which is in perfect shape. I also have an S4, so why am I bothering with it? Because, as I said, I like it very much and I want to use it with my second number.
I've managed to root it. It works perfectly. One thing though: the battery life drains very quickly. When I gave it a closer look I found the culprit: the dialer. Apparently it gets stuck and it uses more than 90% of my battery. This is a serious problem. I've looked it up on Google and I found that this is a known bug. But I haven't managed to find a good fix for that.
What can I do? I have disabled the "quiet ring on pickup" , the "pocket mode", and the "flip for speaker", but it didn't work. I charged my phone completely, made a phone call, and the issues still persists. What else can I do? Would another dialer app solve the problem? Is there a good custom ROM around that I can flash?
I would really appreciate your help, because many of you have a lot of experience. Thank you!
