artemis touch 3.01 problem - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

hi,
people i have a problem and i think it's about rom.the problem is that with artemis touch 3.01 rom the screen isn't behaving as well as it does with original htc WM6 roms; the X button has a lot smaller touch surface and it's hard to press with your finger only...which was very easy with any htc rom.the screen IS ALIGNED and it's working propertly and sharply, only the the X's surface is too small.i don't know if it's in registry,some settings or somewhere else but if anyone has noticed it or has any idea why X button is behaving differently than with original roms please let's deal with it because it's one of very few artemis touch 3.01s bugs.
thanks

Do not post the same question in 3! different posts, this is called crossposting and you have read the rules when registering on this.
This question has been asked b4 so i advise you to use the search creatively.
But its a manner op opinion i guess too, I myself use a 3.01 rom too and have no problems with it (using the indexfinger/nail). But i also have to say that i have assigned the ok/close and close all option to a hardwarebutton and rarely use the stylus or finger for it.
Maybe you get some more specific response/help to your question.
Regards

well i had this bug with b&b too...but ill try to do sth with it.
and about those 3 posts...i know the rules but i had some problem with connection and...i accidently posted it...sorry,won't happen again

Artemis users: Help me with my bugs!

Hi fellas.
Please check out my review on this device:
http://www.absolutesurf.com/articles/dopod_p800w/
Towards the end of the review, I have listed 2 bugs found. Can you also let me know if you notice such bugs? I'm particular about the standard input bug especially. Thanks!
Secondly,
Lets say i want to use the O2's or T-mobile's ROM, is that possible? Is there a way to flush out my ROM into an installer so that I can install it back in if I were to send the device to Dopod for one reason or another?
Nice review!
I have a Greek rom so that my input panels are somewhat different than yours (Greek keyboard and I do not have the T9 phonepad input). In general I have not had this upward-shifting bug. Ocassionally it has happened when I have activated the transcriber while on the today screen...but this has been the exception rather than the rule.
A small bug that bugs me regarding the input is the long lag when shifting from one input method to the other. I have considered installing calligrapher as a solution to this problem (as it has keyboard and transcriber together)...but I do not like to crowd main memory.
Thanks
Yes, shifting between inputs does lag a little. The phonepad I'm using is taken from this forum as well. You can simply install it.
I think I gotta hard reset my device and install other stuffs one at a time to determine the root cause. Just this little problem that makes the device imperfect..
Mask, nice write up, with ref to the car holder, are you sure it can't be bent? the one supplied with my P3300 looks the same and that can be bent (it just takes a fair bit of effort) - Mike

I can confirm that I do not have these issues on my HTC P3300.
I have also mapped the mouse pointer to a hardware button. When I click it when TomTom is running, the button reverts to the default (internet explorer) but TomTom already has a pointer for exploring the map using the scroll ball! Also I do not need to do a reset upon exit of TomTom. The button goes back to mouse pointer.
Did not see the shifting input panel when I toggled between keyboard and phonepad (also from this forum)
It could be model related, or Mapking could be the culprit here

Oh my!
Yes.. it bends! Initially it felt pretty hard and I was afraid I will snap it. Thanks for pointing that out.
As for the other probs.. I willbe doing a hard-reset.. and slowly install apps one at a time, to see what exactly is the culprit... Hmmm
After the hard reset, I still have the problem on the extreme bare minimum device!
Someone help me answer my ROM question pls.. I think I wanna change to a P3300 ROM. How is it anyway? Thanks!!

About TouchFLO in Universal.

Hello.
Is there any way to obtain the TouchFLO usability from the new HTC Touch, into Universal? I don't think there are any hardware changes as to how the screen handles finger moves and clicks.
Maybe any plans on a new WM6 Rom for Universal that might support it?
If yes, would it be the whole Touch interface, including dark gray apearance, etc?
Thanks people.
EDIT: Just read about the first TouchFlo Rom (Ivan i Think), but there is lack of feedback as for the usability of the Touch feature, or the dark grey today theme/caller apearance... Any help?
there are hardware changes
Yep, the hardware of HTC touch is different which enables it to do some 'gestures' on the screen. So, all we can 'taste' is the today plugin which it uses
Thank you both for your responses. Midlet, I have user your ROMs before.
However, I don't understand what the changed might be, since "drag n' drop" finger actions are possible in Universal or any other PPC (for example, using the finger to move an icon in some other place, on "Spb Pocket Plus Today Plugin"...
Any specific info on Why "HTC Touch" is different (apart from the LCD protective material which -just a guess- may be a little more matte, in order for the finger to easily move on it) on this device?
Still, I can't figure out why a finger gesture needs extra/changed hardware. I would understand it if it accepted more than one touches at the same time, but this?...
Thanks...
hi were can i download the cab file for the today pluggin screen like from touch?
you might try this http://www.mobiletopsoft.com/board/2...pocket-pc.html but you need to have WM6 installed. You are not alone others want this interface as well. I have the same question in the Universa general forum
when i click the link it wont forward me. wats the search name of the pluggin? thanks
I think you can get an answer here:

Best Rom For Htc Tytn

I want 2 know who has the best rom from here , but i want 2 have touch flo on the rom and htc home plugin , so i wait an answer .. i`m a fresh user of the htc and of the forum ..
tnx in advance
There is no such thing as best rom since you would be offending the cooks
be gratefull and pick out which ever one is to oyur liking!
There are only ROMs with buttonflo integrated so far (turning by button presses, not by fingers) and they are fairly old. If you want finger scroll possibility and the cube you can flash whatever ROM you like and then install fTouchFlo and Slither's Flash Cube. Which is the best ROM depends on your needs and demands -read the ROMs threads about their advantages/issues - use your own head to figure out what you need. Asking this question can lead to serious flaming (because it is asked VERY often).

ok tnx ... this i want 2 hear
Welcome
pyrogfx,
Welcome to the forum. Here are a few tips to get you started in the right direction. Read the xda-wiki. Karhu came out with a really good thread on benchmarks, go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320370
And you already been introduced to some of the senior members, you have to be really careful on the questions that you ask here. As, leoiden, and Karhu pointed out, you can be asking for serious flaming, asking for a ROM that will not brick your phone.
If you read the wiki, your phone should be ok for flashing, and it won't get bricked. But, the key is to read the wiki and read the threads, then when you have exhausted all this, and you still don't understand, just ask. But, from one member to another, just be careful on how you say things, and word your questions.
Also, you might want to copy the format of my signature, as it has helped me when I would ask questions, senior members where able to get a better understanding of what I already had, so I didn't have to put into every single post.
I hope this helps.
The Best ROM for the Tytn
Hey pyro, they are right. All of the cooks are great. Another thing to keep in mind is that we are using WINDOWS mobile, which means you will have lock ups and unexplained errors from time to time, no matter which rom you use.
That said, there are some cookers who put stuff on the roms that I prefer over the others. My two favorites right now for the Tytn are Schap and ItsRight. Itsright also does some cool wizard roms.
Every cooker stands on the shoulders of others. None of them would be much without the likes of faria, vijay, and tons of others.

HTC Plus! Plugin; Problem with Touchscreen

I´ve installed the HTC "Plus!" Plugin on my MDA Compact III (= HTC P 3300, or Artemis) which makes an "Info Panel" with a big clock and a "quick launcher" available.
The "quick launcher" itself makes several buttons available which one can choose in the "today"-settings under HTC Plus! .
I made the experience, that theese big "quick-launcher"-buttons under the clock do not work as good as the rest of available smal buttons and settings.
That means, sometimes I have to press several times on one of theese big buttons, to activate the corresponding function; sometimes it can´t be activated with it. All the other "normal" buttons (which have nothing to do with the HTC Plus!-Plugin) work with one lighter pressing at the first time.
Is this a known problem? How can this problem be solved?
Thanks for answers.

Having the same problem and have been unable to find the answer. It's a cool app if only it worked properly. Let me know if you find anything
@mikej4
Hi, mikej4, meanwhile I´ve give´n up hope, that anyone answers me...
In this forum the folks don´t discuss such irrelevances
I didn´t solve the problem until now. Don´t know, whether there is a solution for it, or whether this is a bug which one has to accept.
In the meantime I switched off the "quick-launcher". Perhaps anybody gets astrayed in this thread and has THE answer for us
I use HTC Plus myself but I don't use the applauncher so I can't really answer your question but I did want to let you someone had read your post.
Does HTC Plus work on HTC Touch?
will it work with HTC Touch?.....
I don't know if it will work with the HTC Touch or not but I don't see why not,I like it as its a nice alternative to HTC Home theres just so many people using HTC Home I like having a different look on my phone.

for gods sake, why no one is helping me-how can I tweak the GPS-please someone help

Hey Guys
I am using the following
Radio: 4.49
Rom: WWE 6.5
Operator: T Mobile
I have advanced config, and I saw a thread about tweaking the gps, please can someone explain to me in detail how to do that. Under GPS in advanced config it was mentioned to set log file to No logging , but everytime i chose no logging when i restart the device it goes back to \windows\GPSlogFile.txt
it was also mentioned to delete the old and current log file how can I do that.
Are those tweaks applicable to win mobile 6.5
Look for the Cabs,Tips,Tweaks etc thread stickied at the top of this section
I really feel annoyed by when people tell me look at this or that thread when from my post you can tell that I already did that. I tried to follow the instruction on the tweaks, cabs thread, but got stuck, so please why in this forum specifically every time I ask a question I get these insulting replies.
I think I will abandon my dam HTC TOUCH pro2 and go back to HTC TOUCH HD forum since at least there I get answers. I am really pissed now.
For gods sake respect that we are at least trying to learn, and stop being rude to us, by showing us that we are stupid
I don't know what to tell you. When i got it it took a lot to get a lock so i updated the radio from the official site, installed SeaSGEE (do a search), downloaded the content, used the gps registry tweak ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Rhodium/GPS Tweaks ) and the lock is under 2 minutes (although i believe the lock time is horrible compared with the samsung omnia which was 15 seconds).
Hope it helps.

As far as I can tell .. transcriber and letter recognizer do not come with 6.5 anymore they took it out I Loved it .. but I guess noone used it. )
I have tried installing it .. on 6.5 with NO LUCK ;( If you find a way message me too !
Just found this : http://pocketnow.com/thought/goodbye-transcriber
Handwriting recognition has always been a feature of Windows Mobile that went unrivaled by most other smartphone operating systems. Admittedly, most people either didn't use the feature or didn't know that it existed. About a year ago, we did a tutorial on how to use the features of Transcriber to get fantastic handwriting recognition.
The upcoming HTC HD2 has a capacitive screen, meaning that traditional styli cannot be used with the device. Because of this, HTC has stripped out the Transcriber option, as seen below from the HD2 ROM. Also of note is that there is now only one keyboard option, which is HTC's Touch keyboard. Gone is the small stylus keyboard that we've come to know for many generations of Windows Mobile.
With Transcriber gone, will you miss it?
You don't need to take it personal and get upset.
You should at least consider that the issues you're asking about are not common....so the number of people who know or care about the answer is small. If they were common issues then you'd find many other posts stating the same problem. Do you?
If you've followed the suggestions and the suggestions don't work for you, then what more can anyone say? How much time are people supposed to devote to troubleshooting a problem that only you have?
If you scan down the list of threads, those threads that have 0 responses are either questions that are odd/unique/unknown or have been answered so often that there's a sticky with the answer at the top of the forum...which indicates that the poster isn't even trying to help themselves.
BTW: If I had the answer to your technical issues I'd offer it, but I don't.

If I read the site you linked to correctly, L3V5Y says the transcriber is a registry setting, but is still in the OS. Anyone know what registry setting would enable it?
I just checked my Tilt2 and it still has transcriber. If you click on the Keyboard icon, it brings up the options. Go to other input methods, and transcriber is one of them. I don't know of any custom roms that have the transcriber, but my Tilt2 rom has it. I haven't flashed anything to my Tilt2 yet, but will be doing so soon. I have flashed a lot of roms to my old Tilt and Fuze, but am really looking to get a stock ATT rom with the BS bloat taken out. I have yet to look at Da_g's, but will be doing so shortly.
And, by the way, I've been a member for about three years, but my post count is low because I do search for things. when I have asked a question, I typically have gotten great responses. The "go search" people are usually smug people with no knowledge, but have seen others write it, so they do too.
My GPS wakes up in <10s in clear skies when it's been on somewhat recently, perhaps 1 minute if it's got stale data.
If your GPS takes forever to warm up, there's something wrong with it. As for the registry entries, you're probably just doing it wrong. Besides, there's zero need for it anyway.

What ver of Mobile you have 6.1 ??
In Mobile 6.5 - If I goto Keyboard icon, it brings up the options. I have NO "other input methods "
sad to say .. But true
--------------------------------------edit
Ok .. I am a dumbass I installed Transcriber .. and true it does not give you the option of choosing it from the optons menu ..
However if you find transcriber.exe in the windows dir .. you can run it and it does work !
So I made a link and added it to the startup dir in windows and it works just fine now
Just a warning .. if you change to the full or compact qwerty it closes transcriber and you will have to restart it to make it work again :/

My Tilt 2 (6.5) offers Transcriber, Keyboard, Letter Recognizer, and Block Recognizer. Sorry your ROM is crippled.

I have a tilt2 and both transcriber and letter recognizer (my favorite) are enabled and the tilt 2 does use wm 6.5. i went back to the stock rom after flashing the energy rom because it didn't have it, i just prefer features over speed. i vow not to flash another rom unless it has full handwriting recognition, i for one use it a lot more than the keyboard.

Hi hykhleif
I think that you have misunderstood the ethos of this forum. This is a developers forum not a users forum. There is a "Questons and Answers" section in the General section of the forum which you'll see at the top of the main forum page. You may get more detailed help by posting questions there.
I think that if you want "user" advice generally this is potentially not the best place to look but a forum on the HTC website. I think that www.expansys.com has some good user forums as well.
I hope you get your device working to your satisfaction.
Best wishes

Mods,
Not that I am a religious freak or anything like that, not that I object to those who choose to believe in that sort of stuff...
For the record I would like to convey my objection to the tone err attitude err approach err demanding nature of the comments err are we here on this planet to serve this person err is he a reincarnated faro? I move that this thread be removed and our faro friend be given some lessons/guidance on how to communicate in a none aggressive (or pigheaded) way...
We all get frustrated... we all have people in our lives that represent a challenge... our girlfriends/boyfriends all get headaches from time to time... so lets keep a lid on the aggressive nature particularly in this our very fine forum...
PATIENTS is a VIRTUE.

simply i apologize to my tone, i was not aggressive but frustrated.
