Develop Bugs

A set of querries..

hello frnd. i have faced a few problems cooking wm6.5 roms recently. which if you find a solution then share with me asap. am not releasing newer version of my roms cause am busy with my exams and not able to get enough time to fix these bugs.
1st of all am using da_g's kitchen for wm6.5:
here are the problems i am having..
1st. i use youtube that does not require touch flo 3d. you only provided me with the oem. i open application. it loads the videos section. but when i click on any video to view it, i get an error " cannot play this video" i have tried to cook flashlite3 as well as the oone in da_g's kitchens but with no help.
2nd where can i get oem or cab for htc gesture 2. tried searching.
3rd Da_g's recording modification with wm dialer is great. but is it possible to add it to htc dialer?? although have sent him this ques but still if other could fine a soln.
4th how to change link to chome photos directry
5th i dont want date and time setting to start on clicking clock at chome. i dont want anything to happen when i click on clock in titanium.
6th the volume managers do install and work fine normally. but during call, i do not get the call volume display to change call volume. instead i get the usual system and ring volume control display and am unable to change call volume. i have tried both standard and topaz volume manager. could be a build issue but not able to fins a soln yet.
am using notification menu with buttons. could this be causing the issue.?
if you are able to find any possible solutions then feel free to let me know.

Alarm and Ringtones MP3

Is it possible to use my own MP3's as a ringtone/alarm?
Tried copying them into all kinds of directories and didn't get to choose them in TF3D

create a folder on your storage card called my ringtones (same name as the folder on the phone) put them in there and they will appear in the ringtone list

Thanks that worked for the ringtones.
Now only the alarm isnt cooperating. Any ideas?

try to copy the mp3 to your \Windows Folder

I think it has to be a Wav file, and I think there is a maximum file size too, but I am not 100% sure.

Well thats a step back... my S710 could do MP3's no problem :-/

Oh well at least on the kaiser I think it does have to be WAV, and they are both wm 6.1, maybe it is because the S710 runs wm standard, or maybe th touch pro 2 does play MP3, but then again I did say I wasn't completely sure....

Have a google for KaiSoft MP3Alarm, it will do the trick for you, and allows you to browse to any file.

I got myself Klaxon
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-klaxon.html
Supports MP3's FULLY integrated in TF3D. And has some bonus abilities like shaking the phone=off, snooze = turn phone over (each with feedback via vibra) etc
Its even "thumbflick friendly"

I believe the development of Klaxon has been cut off. I think you would be better off with G-Alarm (though, that too has turned to payware recently, but you can still get the free 1.5.1 version that works perfectly - at least it does for me) which has all the same functionality as Klaxon and then some.

Changing text message alert

To change the ringtone you just have to put your favourite mp3 in windows/rings (on a German phone). Doesn't work for text messages though. On other windows mobile phones, you had to convert the mp3 in wav or wma, put it in the same place and they would show up in the text message alert list (I've done it myself and it worked). Unfortunately that doesn't seem to work for my tp2 right now. Any ideas, especially for individual text message alerts?

[App][Beta] ACR – Auto Call Recorder (Version 1.1 – 22/6/2009)

ACR – Auto Call Recorder
First a Warning! This application is not legal in all countries/states. Check first before you use this software as you could get into serious trouble in some areas.
This Application does what the title says; it records your phone calls automatically. It automatically detects when you are on an incoming or outgoing call and then records the conversation to the folder you specify. It saves the call as a file in the format of [Direction] [FileAs] [Phone Number] [Call Length]
Installation:
Copy the cab file to your device and execute it but double clicking on it in a program such as Explorer/Total Commander/Resco File Explorer. You can install the program to either the device or the storage card.
Next go to your programs folder and you will see a new Icon for Auto Call Recorder. Click on the Icon and the options for Auto Call Recorder will be displayed. Once you have chosen your options click the Enable Recording button on the File Tab and close the Options Program. That’s it you are now automatically recording any calls your device has.
Options:
File Tab
This tab has a button to enable and disable the call recorder. The effect is not instantaneous as the Options Program has to communicate with the Recorder Process so when you press the button give it a couple of seconds to update itself. I didn’t include the options in the recorder process to conserve resources so this is the trade off.
The File Tab also contains a Textbox for the path to save the files to. Some example paths are:
"\" Records to the root path of the device
"\Storage Card\" Records to the root of the Storage Card
"\Storage Card\Calls\" Records to the folder ‘Calls’ in the Storage Card.
Recording Tab
The recording tab contains the setting for the file to be recorded. First is the Wav format. This is either PCM or GSM6.10 PCM is a ‘raw’ wav format that will use about 1MB per minute. I have included this format for devices that do not support GSM6.10. The other format GSM6.10 is a ‘compressed’ Wav format and consumes approximately 30kB per minute. Obviously this is the preferred choice.
Bits per channel are either 8 or 16 bits. 16 bits is the preferred choice but I have also included 8 bits for slower devices.
Samples per Second are the number of samples taken each second. This is a matter of preference/device capability. The choices are 8000, 11025, 16000, 22050, 32000, 44100, 48000, 96000 and 192000Hz. If you have a slow device then you are better starting from the bottom and working your way up by testing to see which the best is for you. If you have a newer device then it is more a choice of how much space you want to use as the higher the number the more space the file will use. Also your device may not support the higher frequencies so I recommend starting with something like 48000Hz. If you set the frequency to high you will get gaps in your recordings.
Read Me Tab
This tab contains a small readme file and some credits. No settings.
Uninstalling:
To uninstall Auto Call Recorder disable recording in the ACR options first before uninstalling the Cab.
Devices:
This programs has been reported to work on the following devices:
Samsung Omnia, Sony Ericsson X1, HTC Kaiser, HTC Diamond, HTC Diamond 2, HTC Trinity, HTC Touch 3G, HTC Touch Cruise, HTC Touch HD
If your device is not in the list there is no harm in trying anyway. Please report back any success so I can add your device to the list.

.NET Compact Framework 3.5 Redistributable
Versions:
1.2 Available Here
1.1 Removed - Should be able to used by most non English roms.
1.0 Removed - First version. English only.

[App][Alpha] ACR – Outlook Import 2007
[App][Alpha] ACR – Outlook Import 2007
In typical XDA fashion you get not one but two for the price of none!
This is an application for Outlook that runs on Windows and not the PDA. Start the Application and put the path you used for calls on the device in the textbox and click the Import Calls button when your device is connected to the PC. It should then precede to imports all the calls from the device to Outlook under the contact used on the device. If it can’t find the contact it will store the call under ‘Unknown’. You can then use either the journal to look at the calls or open the contact and look at the ‘activities’ for the contact. To play the call just open the item and click on the link in the item.
WARNING! This program is far from finished. It’s only for those that don’t mind things going wrong. Also the program deletes all but the lastcall.wav file off the device when it has imported the files.
Anyway if you’re feeling brave and ACR is working for you then please do post any problems you might have if you try this.

It works on my Rhodium!
Thank you very very much!

I'll give it a try. Do you have some screenshots that you can post here?

Doesn't work with German ROM
Unfortunately, your program doesn't seem to work with German ROM. It always gives me a "directory not found exception", even if I use only "\" for the recording path. Maybe there are some language specific symbols hard coded? (For example, "Storage Card" is "Speicherkarte" on German devices).

Opps sorry I forgot not everyone in the world uses English roms. I can make you a German version pretty quickly if you can post the path for \Windows\Startup\ in German. I'll look into finding this path automatically via code in the next version though. Thanks for that.

\windows\startup in German
The equivalent to "Windows\Startup" is in German ROMs probably "Windows\AutoStart" (but there is also a folder "Windows\Autorun").
Thanks for your efforts!

Sorry I obviously can't test this. I look through the code and that was the only English string I could find. The installer adds some registry keys but I don't know if they would stop the program. Try this and if it doesn't work I'll get onto it tomorrow.

Not quite
Now, it accepts the path, but when you actually try to record a call, you get an "Unexpected Error in ACRBase.exe". So there seem to be some more issues...
I will be waiting patiently for an internationalized version, though

It doesn't go in italian rom too. When I start application, even if I dont' set directory where to save and leave the default directory, I get the error message "directoryNotFoundException". I've tried to look into the registry but I don't have found anything to change.
Any tip ??

gr8 work
is it support 2 way recording ?

This is one of things I missed most since I left my Palm OS Treo 650 for a Windows Mobile Touch HD. I was using a program called CallRec then. That program provided many advanced features including encrypted storage and very good noise filtering. You might want to check their site: http://www.qmobilsoft.net/Products/products.html.
Anyway, your program will probably fill the gap somehow, thankyou. I will try it now and report the results.

I just tested this app with a few calls and it works very good. Thank you very much.

it works with miri 6.5 Ver 16.1 - thank you for this app

crash
the application allways crash after call ends when i am calling numbers with files' chars unleglly such *123 or name such David C"F.

Doesn't work in spanish ROM (1.56.41.1) either.
The path is \Windows\Inicio
To store calls i created a new folder in micro sd named:
\Tarjeta de almacenamiento\Llamadas
By the way, one question: does it record every phone-call or onle the ones we wish?
Rgds,

NOT working with Italian ROM
Do not works with Italian Rhodius Rom. Is there any possibility to fix this problems ?

How to silence camera?

Is there an easy way to suppress the sound effects when using the camera?

Doh! Sorry - I just found it on the 2nd menu options page of the camera app...

Where? I'm blind?
Call me stupid, but I don't see the sound options in the Camera settings. I too am looking for a way to silence the camera sounds when taking pictures.

In the Camera settings, go to the Advanced Options. On the 3rd page is a "Shutter Sound" option.

Just a FYI
Hey there!
Well is you have the Telus version YOU ARE SCREW like me
the option is not there
but I found that if you call your voice mail and take picture at the same time, you will get the sound from \windows\shuttersound.wav witch is quiet compare to the rom one.
I did try to delete the file but it keep getting copy over after a softreset
good luck men

I have an unlocked device so I can disable the sound via the camera app settings. But for those of you who can’t, perhaps you can try messing with this registry entry:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\General\DisableShutterSound
If it doesn’t work, place the unzipped attached file into your Windows directory. It’s just a blank wav file (created by opening Windows Sound Recorder and clicking “Save as” without doing anything).
If it still doesn’t work, then maybe you’ll need a wav file recorded with a second of silence…

Thanks but..
Thanks for the reply but that is not working.
I still wanna use the stock phone for now.. but one day I will jump the fence..
I did Try the registry change(S) .(went all through all the reg. to find out something else) deleting reg word and folders (not the greatest solution but i was trying...
had to hard reset 2 times.
I did try to install about 6 others HTC camera cabs..from tp hd etc custom software
I deleted the .wav file I did try to replace it with a silence file. but a soft-reset will re put it back
don't worry about it.. I did try and I FAILED
Canon ftw

I will look for the reg setting but if you find it before I do then you can change the sound path from windows\shuttersound.wav to windows\none and that should work. when I find the reg setting I will make a cab for it. should be tonight but if not then I will post it in the am.
Ok here is the cab. Try it and let me know. It does not silence it totally but it only leaves a small click

Sorry ...

Hello HTC Friend,
I did try your Cab file ... and I still have the "Big" shutter sound + the CLICK from telus. I did try many others "cab file" to remove the shutter without success
The "work around" I found use the windows sound file but it really not a good solution to call your voice mail and then get your pic.. ( often too Late)
I did saw the windows\******* in the past (the reg changed was done) noting happen
It look Like TELUS overlap the "windows/HTC" camera function.
What really bugging me is That I CAN'T find the "occ/wav/mp3/midi/audio" file that generate the shutter sound (w/total commander or explorer)
Is it possible that the file would be hidden in The ROM ? and Can't be change unless you move to a custom rom ?
I "kinda" scare to change my rom .. I really depand on my phone.. ( no line at home and I need it to open the door of my App) So I really need something 101% working.
Thanks for you help

I tried the cab, but it does not work on my TP 2, which is the Australian version. I have tried to play around with many reg edits but nothing is changed. Somebody in the other forum managed to modify the camerarc.dll for the Touch HD and Touch Diamond, and it worked for those phones. I wonder if there has been a DLL modification for the Touch Pro 2 version as well?
You may check this thread on modifying the DLL file on ther HTC model to silence the sound.

HTC In Call Recording Will Not Save to SD Card

No matter what ROM I run (usually EnergyROM), I can never get the built-in HTC In call Recording to save to the storage card.
I've set the option in both "In Call Recording" and in "Notes", yet it always saves to /My Documents/Notes. I've even gone so far as to create those directories on the storage card, hoping that would help.
In addition, each and every call is saved in the .wav format. Checking the AMR option does nothing (still saves as WAV).
Before you ask, I've done soft resets, hard resets, calls before installing any apps, etc...
If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it.

I don't know the answer, but have you tried this program? It does the same but you can save your calls anywhere.

Thanks for the reply. I actually posted on that thread, subscribed, but didn't see the reply.
I'll check it out today.
My only concern is that people say the other party's voice is often quiet. I'm not sure if that's phone dependent or what...

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but this is still driving me up the wall. I cannot understand how a program with an option to not only save to the SD card, but also to save in AMR (compressed) format... it'll only save to WAV.
Basically, the options don't work. I've tried other programs, but haven't found one yet that doesn't have one side of the conversation barely audible. The HTC voice recorder works great... both sides are clear, the menu option is always there... it just won't save to the SD card. I can get maybe 10 minutes of audio saved before my phone fills up. Sometimes, I have so little memory left, that I have to reboot the phone due to "out of memory" error messages.
There has got to be a way to get ICR to save correctly. Hopefully someone here has tackled this issue.

I don't use ICR myself, but it was reported as a bug to NRG and he fixed it on the newer Energy ROMs.

Wow. Great timing. I use all his ROMs anyways. I'll give it a try. I never would've even bothered to look had you not posted a reply. THANKS!

Nevermind that. I've just tried three different post 1 July ROMs... and all still save to the freaking phone, in uncompressed WAV format. This is so freaking irritating, I just want to throw my phone across the room. I don't know if this is an HTC thing (ICR is still at version 1.0) or an NRG ROM thing (the only ROMs I use). All I know is that I need this to work, or I need an alternative that has both sides of the conversation clearly represented.
Am I the only one who is having this problem??
