I know what are you feeling bro, but I've some notes:
1) You're in a wrong subforum.
2) Maybe I'd start wipe the whole phone.
I get no idea what's truly happening here. Maybe others can help. Sorry.
Aku tahu apa yang kau rasakan bro, tapi aku punya sejumlah catatan:
1) Kau ada di subforum yang salah.
2) Mungkin aku akan mulai dengan wipe (menghapus, software) keseluruhan ponsel.
Aku tak tahu apa yang sebenarnya terjadi di sini. Mungkin orang lain bisa bantu. Sorry.

caller2picture

hi,
does anyone has "caller2picture" ?
I have the trial version and I want to buy the full one, but on "pocket gear" I've seen a post of a user that bought the full version but he's still unable to assign more then 3 pictures.
Can I thrust them and buy the software or do I have to forget it ?
Thanx
Arog

http://www.ppcw.net/forum.php?forum=3&thread=1047393751&area=&story=&page=1
I've used the trial version with more or less success, especially displaying a chimpanzee picture when my collegues tried to phone me :lol:
I've got the full version and it works fine. I've got about 10 pictures assigned to contacts.

Oh, please, give me a break... We're doing our best to create a fun experience for everyone. And besides, what hidden about the policy of removing warez trading?
http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=859
This is not acceptable at all.... Xchange man those ppl are receiving us as their guests and why pay them back by insulting them??? 2 days ago this site or this forum has reached its 500 user and all of them are considering themselves as one family sharing and learning and teaching. Please reconsider your attitude as we all are here friends and one happy XDA, o2, QTEK, SX56 (forgot any?) Family...
Thanks for the ppl behind this site thanks for the members in this great forum God bless us all.

I have to agree with XDA developer Peter Poelman
come on xcahnge - $14 is not a lot for software... that is damned useful...
and entertaining, and intuitive. Instead of moaning why not just develop your own version of the software and distribute it as freeware?
I mean if it cost several hundred pounds and you used it three times you'd have cause to grumble.
Dont forget that programmers have mouths to feed - and being a software developer is as worthy a job as a train driver or electrician.
(Apart from Solicitors & Estate Agents)
I am none of these by the way, but I know plenty of programmers!
Dont forget that we need people like this to develop apps for our phones to make them "far more functional" than our friends nokias, or motorolas are.
Hold on a minute you dont like paying 14 dollars, but you have several hundred dollars worth of mobile phone!!!!
Just try it out. add three pics for your best friends and if you like it then just BUY NOW!

xda site
hi all
this is a great site and i normally log in daily i used to have a nokia communicator but the xda is a lot more usefull and the only real website for the xda is my-symbian.com and that started a bit like this site but turned very quickly into a forum for selling software and not really intrested in the people or the product it would be s ahame for this to happen here there is loads of free software out there try downloading bear share and you will get loads of games. anyway keep up the good work on the website.
regards kevin beecher
So... what about sharing the serial!!!!
caller2picture is pants..
I only wanted to be able to select different ringtones... caller2picture adds its bloatware crap and removes another useful feature <sending an sms from the contacts> (or has nobody noticed?)
nobody has made a program with a little box that lets you do the same thing?
hmmmm

It is useless, because it is generated depending on number on your Register screen. And that one is probably calculated from your name/or other unique parameters of you xda.
Hi!
Anyone got similar problem. The pictures aren't showing themselves regularly and consistently. They pop up many times less than they don't. Suggest anything, guys? :?
What is frustrating is I bought the full version, but it will not work with WM2003PE.

The program does work with my ppc2003. Anyway, you have to remove your sd card before the installation since the system will automatically install the software to sd card even you choose to install on the default location. The Picture2Caller does have some bugs when installed to ppc 2003. That is the software fails to work with all contacts. Anyway, if you feel ok with this, go ahead. Cheers
I want to agree with Arzeb,
This is an AWESOME site, complete with smart helpful people. Please keep up the excellent stuff that gets done here.
xchange: please chill.
THANX to the rest of you.
Hal.
Tried installing it again withot the SD card, still does not work. What happens is, it does not retrieve the contact's name, and phone numbers.

TV Remote Controller v.5.5 for only $5

Hello
I got the software and the serial number for it as well. :idea: The software works like a charm. I have tried it on both PPC 2002 and WM 2003. I use the xda 1(does not work with XDA-2) and the range is limited to 6 feet but the fuctionality of the software more than covers for the range limitation. It can be downloaded from the following link:
http://www.pdawin.com/TVremote.exe
:idea: The software also has an exceptional voice recognition capability. Has a built in capability with 30 devices and can be programmed to be compatible with 30 more(In less that 2 mins). For complete summary of the program visit
http://www.pdawin.com :idea:
:idea: The software is for $14USD at pda win and i am giving it for only $5. Buzz me if u want the serial for the software and i will contact you with the payment details. :idea:
Why does it not work on the XDA II?
I really would like such software
I've tried to different ones a while back and they never worked. The plan was to flick the channels while pretending to update my diary! Confuse the hell out of someone!
The people at pdawin are working on some sort of program for the xda 2. it will be out soon. I hope.
yeah people say that the ir in the xda2 is not an default ir like the one on xda1 so it dont work with the remote programs but since ir is ir it should be possible to make one which works on xda2
but that dont solve the issue i had with the xda1 as a remote which was that it's max range was 30cm which dont make it all that remote
of cause i cant say if the xda2's ir is stronger
Has nobody else noticed that this person is asking for $5 for the serial number to software that normally sells for $14, shouldnt the revenue be going to the software author?
I have tried VITO Remote for IR Emote Control and VITO Oscilloscope to display IR waveforms and neither works on the imate/XDAII - the developer is still working on it
Call me a nerd but I think a IR remote on the XDA II would be pretty cool. Esp for changing the channel while you are out and about :lol:
Call me a nerd but I think a IR remote on the XDA II would be pretty cool. Esp for changing the channel on 'other tv's' while you are out and about :lol:
Are you the software creator just selling the software direct ??, otherwise it isnt right that you are charging people $5 for a hacked serial number
Well you'd have to be silly to send this guy any money me thinks.
As far as I can tell there'll never be a working tv remote software for the xda 2. Though it might be possible to use any other if u replaced the actual IR hardware itself.... anyone had any thoughts on this?
Sorry u guys were right no money for the damn thing. Just send me a mail and i'll give you the serial no.
P.S.
I don't know about changing the hardware. Lots of warranty problems and personally i don't want to take the risk for a 5ft range remote control. But it would be fun to try it on a damaged unit though.

There are many of us on this forum who make our living as software authors/programmers. Stealing software like you are advocating simply encourages us to take our development efforts to another platform. That results in another handy program NOT being written for PPC.

I totally respect your opinion but having said that the software should be available to people. You know once it happened that i wanted to download something and had to make a donation for it I was ready and then tried to do it but paypal didn't work I contacted the author and he never replied so i looked for some cracks and finally got them.
:?: One othe thing I am getting so many requests from people for the serial that i am thinking about posting it on this forum :?: What do you say :?:

@Addicted: Not if we just share our experiences with different vendors/shops using the "right langauge". Sharing experiences is not a crime, declaring someone bad causing damage to a business may be a crime. So share both good and bad ones.
But based on my experience, these kind of threads loose their meaning after some time when they become really long. Look at thinkdigit.com forums (if you are a reader of the popular technology magazine Digit, or if you even know about it), there are many such examples. Ankit can tell you better, he is also a member there like me.

And thanks to xda, i can't go beyond HTC

Bye mini pro...

A good PMP - wonderful in fact - did everything it said on the tin - except make and receive phonecalls.
95% network unavailability - when a 6 year old Nokia E70 didnt bat an eyelid and never dropped signal.
And they call this progress. Come monday I will be getting a Samsung Galaxy Pro and if that goes the same way then its contract go bye bye time and sayonara to my current provider.
Might I suggest that it would be a better use of peoples time on here to ***** at SE and other phone manufacturers regarding their equipments inability to provide simple and reliable phone services - than the current trend of - umm, I cant get a new .x.x update within 30 seconds !?! *ultrawinge mode: on*...?
People seem to forget that a smartphone is many things - but first and foremost its a phone - and in cases of extreme emergency, the ability to summon help, for whatever the situation can be the difference between life and death. The car accident victim you stopped to help isnt going to care about what version of An-drone you are running on your phone - and what happens if you are a woman alone and in trouble... woo hoo, look at that signal you dont got.. and the lives that are at risk because of that.
Stop wingeing about updates, and start wingeing about products released to market that dont fulfil their primary function...
A smartphone cant be that smart if it doesnt work as a phone...
Hello Jemmauk,
It seems that you overreact a bit. There is a rather large community of mini/mini pro users here that use their devices in daily basis and haven't reported bad reception. This is NOT a common issue.
Have you checked, if your mini pro is defected in any way or if there's something wrong with your provider?
Also you could be more polite against all of us, that seek the peak of performance from our phones.
No one is forcing you to be part of something that you don't like or support, plus, malicious criticism has nothing to offer to anyone.
Regards, D_d
Tons on people on this forum and outside of it use it to make phone calls without any problem, one of them, you, has problems.
Clearly it's the phone's fault.
May be you should just use public phone boot from now on... It's guarantee no line interruption..

Hello, if you have found problems with your phone, you should have tried to contact SE and report the problem. There is a posibillity of faulty device.
And after all no one forced you to buy a smartphone. There are a lot of simple device that they don't suffer of signal problems.

My phone works perfectly as a phone for at least three days if I just use it as that!
BUT, we must realize that a "smart phone" is a micro computer that you can actually make the call.
Unplug the charger cable to your notebook computer ...... How long will it take before it dies?
A maximum of three hours? Remember that you are complaining about a phone that can handle much of what you do on your computer, and keep it alive, almost half of the day!

[Xiaomi Mi5] How my dream phone Mi5 became a nightmare for me!!

How my dream phone mi5 became a nightmare for me!!​
Mi5 was my dream phone, I had created a post at miui forum...
But 10 days and mi5 became a nightmare for me!!
I had fell in love with speed and beauty of the phone, with hybrid case it look so cool. People were jealous of it. But happy time ended soon...
Don't go for looks, they deceive you...
And what do i need to say about build quality, aluminum gets dent on simple force. You have to use super hybrid case.
The mi Protect Scam
I called the Mi Assist for activation of mi protect, but it wasn't activated even after calling 5 times. When I went service center, they don't have any spares parts for the mi5 phone... Why the hell you sell mi protect when you don't even have the provisions. Funny thing was mi assist marketing department, called me to insure my other devices... I always said first activate for what I paid for... Mi protect is a scam, indeed.
Just a hype, no global stable ROM for Mi 5
Mi 5 is your flagship, how come Xiaomi team are so lethargic about global ROM. If you can't be loyal to global users then why you made fake claims and why Xiaomi released the phone for Rest of the world.
The Amount of defective Mi5 phones are too high....
My camera had defect, home button wasn't responsive to soft press, over heating,I waited with hopes for updates but i lost mind when physical defect were discovered in camera. Im freelancer which demands me to use front camera for live assistance. My assignments are international (European) so phone is the only way of getting connected anytime and anywhere. Clients started complaining about white dots on my videos and phone heated too much while live assistance. It made impossible for me to continue and which spoiled my ratings.
I immediately went mi service center, thank god engineer at service center confirmed the defect in phone. The engineer tested for water damage and physical damage. After confirming device problem, he issued fault in device memo. Which helped me to request for replacement. It was luckily 10th day, from the date of purchase... Finally, successfully request was submitted.
Bluedart guy came within an 24 hour and picked up the phone.
The replacement product was also defective!!!! Xiaomi dont have any polices for get a defective replacement!
BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE.
I'm without a phone and also I sold my iPhone 5s for Mi5!! You can refer my post where I mentioned about selling iPhone 5s for Mi5. Thought iPhone wasn't great but going for Mi 5 was a mistake.
Spoke to customer care of mi India but they are hopeless and clueless.
They kept me on hold for asking trivial information, which wasn't related to my problem. Just for the sake of passing time. They keep on hold and after coming back from hold they speak as if they are talking for first time. Im fedup of the harrasment. I even said to deduct shipping cost and refund me the balance amount but they are so rigit.
The service which mi india provides is a pure harrasment.
I wish mi.com had refund policy and I move away from this hell. I'm disappointed and without further loss... im sure mi phones are having high chances of being defective as only lower variants are available which are unsold stock of china.
I can't afford this to be repeated.
But let's face it, Mi won't give refund.​We all have to learn something from here. And beware of the mi policies and services.
There are too many problems in Mi5. Xiaomi need to fix what it can via software updates, ASAP. Also, this is a honest review for mi 5 which will help many buyers to know the real face of mi5 and mi. Only the engineer at service center was indeed helpful, I accept that. No doubts about other products, but people need to know the honest reviews not just fanboys flaunting just cause of getting forum credits at miui forum. Cause we build expectations from it and get disappointed.
The miui forum has hardly any use, just legal spammers for credits. When its time to help, they turn deaf ears. Very few helpful mods, which are hardworking....
Hope this helps users before making decision for Mi 5and also an eye opener for Xiaomi...

Mate, can you please elobrate??
This doesn't sound very good. Hopefully your experience isn't encountered by others
unfortunately, this seems to be the real situation with so appreciated Mi 5 at the moment.
I was so eager to read each news and announcement about it, I was waiting for a really great phone with affordable price for so long, and in the end, it seems that all of us got just a big hype around quite troubled phone.
some of the issues with the phone could be theoretically solved in the future:
- shaky video recording could be improved by pairing EIS with existing OIS
- overall photo quality could be improved by using some 3rd party app and/or different camera driver
- not-so-widely adored MIUI could be replaced with some custom ROMs after kernel source is released
- one could try to be more cautious and not brake/bend the phone
- Xiaomi support could start acting as a useful service
- useless MIUI spam forum could be closed and people could get their unlock code without a need to post >500 "great"/"awesome"/"cool" replies on the newest Mi 5 screenshot
but, for some of those points Xiaomi has to change its own policy.
that's something, I'm afraid, we will not see in at least next 3 to 5 years...
had the phone from day no such issues.

I agree, mainly, in that point. What a sh*t* forum!
Same here
I´m very disappointed too.
There are a lot of small things that bother me:
Alarm doesn't work unless you interact with the phone (even hours later)
Delayed synchronization on almost all application, (notifications coming all at once after 10 min, WIFI or 3G)
Camera focus working really bad ( tried with different applications, all of them with bad results )
Contacts or Calls stopping working from the beginning
Spotify doesn't play next song unless you open the app
Even I have problems connecting to Xiaomi Band 1s
I had a Galaxy S3 and a Nexus 4 before and these things are very annoying. I have to use another mobile to wake up in the morning....
I can't wait to install cyanogenmod.
Anyway I'll never buy a Xiaomi again, I hate MIUI and after all this I prefer to pay more and have a good experience with a nexus.
Maybe this thread should be tweeted to Hugo Barra & Xiaomi. See if there is any response.

What a surprise !
I have another big problem with this phone. After I made a factory reset the phone got locked and needs to be activated. The device is associated with an existing Mi ID account that I never registered and is completely unknown to me, as is of course the password.
I've spent hours on their forum to get some answers on how to reassociate my phone to my own ID number. So far with no sucess.

How my dream phone mi5 became a nightmare for me!!​
Mi5 was my dream phone, I had created a post at miui forum...
But 10 days and mi5 became a nightmare for me!!
I had fell in love with speed and beauty of the phone, with hybrid case it look so cool. People were jealous of it. But happy time ended soon...
Don't go for looks, they deceive you...
And what do i need to say about build quality, aluminum gets dent on simple force. You have to use super hybrid case.
The mi Protect Scam
I called the Mi Assist for activation of mi protect, but it wasn't activated even after calling 5 times. When I went service center, they don't have any spares parts for the mi5 phone... Why the hell you sell mi protect when you don't even have the provisions. Funny thing was mi assist marketing department, called me to insure my other devices... I always said first activate for what I paid for... Mi protect is a scam, indeed.
Just a hype, no global stable ROM for Mi 5
Mi 5 is your flagship, how come Xiaomi team are so lethargic about global ROM. If you can't be loyal to global users then why you made fake claims and why Xiaomi released the phone for Rest of the world.
The Amount of defective Mi5 phones are too high....
My camera had defect, home button wasn't responsive to soft press, over heating,I waited with hopes for updates but i lost mind when physical defect were discovered in camera. Im freelancer which demands me to use front camera for live assistance. My assignments are international (European) so phone is the only way of getting connected anytime and anywhere. Clients started complaining about white dots on my videos and phone heated too much while live assistance. It made impossible for me to continue and which spoiled my ratings.
I immediately went mi service center, thank god engineer at service center confirmed the defect in phone. The engineer tested for water damage and physical damage. After confirming device problem, he issued fault in device memo. Which helped me to request for replacement. It was luckily 10th day, from the date of purchase... Finally, successfully request was submitted.
Bluedart guy came within an 24 hour and picked up the phone.
BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE.
I'm without a phone and also I sold my iPhone 5s for Mi5!! You can refer my post where I mentioned about selling iPhone 5s for Mi5. Thought iPhone wasn't great but going for Mi 5 was a mistake.
Spoke to customer care of mi India but they are hopeless and clueless.
They kept me on hold for asking trivial information, which wasn't related to my problem. Just for the sake of passing time. They keep on hold and after coming back from hold they speak as if they are talking for first time. Im fedup of the harrasment. I even said to deduct shipping cost and refund me the balance amount but they are so rigit.
The service which mi india provides is a pure harrasment.
I wish mi.com had refund policy and I move away from this hell. I'm disappointed and without further loss... im sure mi phones are having high chances of being defective as only lower variants are available which are unsold stock of china.
I can't afford this to be repeated.
But let's face it, Mi won't give refund.​We all have to learn something from here. And beware of the mi policies and services.
There are too many problems in Mi5. Xiaomi need to fix what it can via software updates, ASAP. Also, this is a honest review for mi 5 which will help many buyers to know the real face of mi5 and mi. Only the engineer at service center was indeed helpful, I accept that. No doubts about other products, but people need to know the honest reviews not just fanboys flaunting just cause of getting forum credits at miui forum. Cause we build expectations from it and get disappointed.
The miui forum has hardly any use, just legal spammers for credits. When its time to help, they turn deaf ears. Very few helpful mods, which are hardworking....
Hope this helps users before making decision for Mi 5and also an eye opener for Xiaomi...
XDA is great, I missed you.
After a long time I'm posting on XDA. I use to own Samsung galaxy grand and s2...

It's okay to complain, but please do it reasonable.
Cut out all emotional crap from your topic and try again. But stick to facts and be reasonable.
Just as example, if you wonder what I am talking about.
->"The miui forum has hardly any use, just legal spammers for credits" ... 100% your opinion, nothing more, nothing less.
-> "There are too many problems in Mi5." ... 100% your opinion.
How could the same look better.
You could say: I was not able to find any useful information on en.miui.com, as most appeared to me as spam. I was not able to find what I was looking for [ state what you were looking for in here]
And instead of the very general and 100% stupid comment of too many problems.
You could have written a: I encoundered these problems [ list of problems ], a good amount of people have the same [ link to topics, stating similar problems.]
Why is this important:
I think, you made a bad experience and would like to warn people from making the same mistake, that's very kind of you!
But you achieve more if you stay to facts and leave out emotions and 100%-pure opinions.
That way you really help people, because they can make their own judgment based on facts you provided.
... what you wrote looks like a baby crying, to me at least.
@alfay0m3ga i have solution for 1st,2nd,4th, and maybe 3rd and 5th
For 1,2,4 just go in recent app and do the opposite of clearing an app, just drag down one and you will see an orange lock on left top of it
Then you will have alarms, spotify and syncronization
For the others try to unlock bootloader and change rom with xiaomi eu one

Thank you very much. You were right and it fixed some of my points.
EU rom? is it the global? I have the Global 7.2.4
@alfay0m3ga unfortunately, MIUI over android is totally different in managing app and notification
So you need to know what to do for make them working
Xiaomi.Eu rom is this one: http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/...r-xiaomi-mi5-unlocked-bl-only-released.31231/
