stock quotes

Hi,
I'm looking for HTC software (with windows mobile 6) that seems to be like 'stocks' (popular real time stock quotes monitor available to Iphone). Anyone knows anything like that? I need to monitor Brazilian Bovespa stock market index.
Thanks.

Did you even bother searching before you made this thread? or were you hoping for someone to just hand you what you're looking for? Is not that hard and it took me about 30 seconds to find some info on your app, by just using google . Start here. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...or+windows+mobile&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=

Yes, I tried search, before post this thread, i've found many softwares for pocketpc, who didn't work with htc excalibur.
I'm looking for freeware stock software, who works with HTC Excalibur (Windows Mobile 6).
I think maybe anyone in this forum, already have the same issue, and can help.
That would not be the objective of this forum?
Thanks Anyway

Quick yes or no Question.

Hello everyone. I'm thinking on buying HTC magic, i've been reading a bit about the Hacking to run new roms. My only objective was to run apps, or unoficial apps. Do i need to hack the HTC in order to run them ? I couldnt find awser of this question i hope someone can help Thank you,
Regards

A) Your question really doesn't make sense.
B) This is the HTC Hero forums, not the HTC Sapphire (Magic) forums.

well first of all, you posted in the hero section.
about your questions, hacking is too much of a big word. better say rooting.
depends on the applications you want to install. majority of them you wont need to root your phone for them to run. there is an option to enable 3rd party applications in the menu itself. however, some applications do require rooting of the phone, for example wifi teetering, bluetooth sharing...

oh sorry i made mistake :\ but i think it would be the same.
i'll try formulate. I wish to download a pack of apps from the internet. I do not know if they are signed or not (not even know if android has that protection as windows mobile has ) . My question was if i can install those apps on the android oficial OS from HTC.
I Hope it was better formulated the question. Thanks again!

For example. i'm downloading this collection of apps: h**p://isohunt.com/torrent_details/148986681/android?tab=summary
Will i need to root or it isnt necessary? What kind of apps need rooting? Or this kind i do not have to worry about.
Thanks =)

from the list you quoted, you dont have to root your phone for the vast majority of them. rooting is required to access proteccted files of the system from your phone

alright excelent. Thank you for your kind help =) I was becoming interested on the iphone but after i saw android, kind of blocked my eyes. the system is great hehe. Thank you again =)

But downloading pirated apps is a good way to get your phone blacklisted & banned from the Android Market.

i don't support piracy, especially not when it comes down to apps for a few $$... but i neither support divulgement of false propaganda.
so please explain how my phone is going to be banned from the market, this is the first time i hear of this?

oh how is this detectable so far? why are they banning people from it? wont they loose money that way? If i dont root my phone, most apps i have on this list will work, in that way i wont get blacklisted? Thanks

Missing apps in the Market, this will repeat and forever (April 23, 2010)

UPDATE:
As of April 23, 2010 HTC Desire users can see / buy protected apps from the Android Market !
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know, this has been discussed again and again.
We have to wait until Google finished finger-printing the phone firmware and added it to the Market. Something like Google should certify the phone firmware to be able to use the Market.
Granted, no problem with that ... if Google can do it very quickly.
But how long???
This will be a long wait ... or VERY LONG WAIT
Take a look from the official Google Android Market forum support:
Even the HTC Legend is still having this issue (which was released earlier)
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=683d89c4f4fd4593&hl=en
After more than 1 month, it is still not fixed !!!
And this is for HTC Hero:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=3529bae358433fcd&hl=en
Started on July 22, 2009 ... Until March 2010 ... Or is it still till now??? Probably on certain firmware from certain mobile operators or whatnot.
I really cannot believe Google screws this great Android platform like this.
Think about the next firmware update, from Google or HTC ... We will AGAIN get this issue ... Then wait again very long.
I am really mad and hate this. The phone is nice, but this? Do I forced to find "elsewhere" (pirated, cracked version of Android apps)?
If one of you guys is capable of writing a good professional article or blog regarding this issue, we could spread the voice all over the internet / twitter / facebook / blogs / news so Google could "end" or "fix" this.
Because this is unacceptable ... will REPEAT (every firmware update) and FOREVER
PS: This is repost from AndroidForums.com by me.

It's staggering really. Particularly like google Earth. I can't get that through the android market!
This should be fixed....

will a rooted desire solve the problem?

I think so, since at that point you can change your phone "ID", so the market thinks it is a nexus/G1/X10 etc etc.
If there si a phone with full access to the market, you change your ID to that one et voilá...

how about changing from a T-Mobile ROM to a generic one?

I'm have a desire with the same issue, running the latest generic firmware. I have to source apps I can't find on the market place elsewhere. There really needs to be more urgency put on the finger printing process by Google!

Think Google have their dummy out as the Nexus isnt doing too well lol
Seriously though. This is bad. The iphone/pod does so well because of the apps. Microsoft are doing so badly because of the apps. Google dont shoot yourself in the foot.
Its sad as I told my mate today that the android just lacks big named titles then I go on cryket and there are some cool titles Gameloft & EA but not found on the marketplace when I search.
Really is a pity we have to wait so long.

Knowing HTC they probably won't release many updates for the Desire anyway, unless they've realised that in order to sell more units they need to provide fixes!

Hahaha, don't be daft now! When do HTC ever really fix issues? Thats why we all love xda so much.

This won't help ... I am using generic one
This issue is silly ... I cant support Android platform by spending money on apps. I want to do this to support Android developers so they will be happy and encouraged to develop more better apps.
If I am a developer, I will be really mad ...
Some apps are in http://www.slideme.org , but not all.

This guy is making work of the market problem. At least for the Legend. So let's hope this will also solve the problem for the Desire.
Otherwise we have to wait for root acces and alter the build.prop file ourselves.

As far as I can gather, he says nothing specifically about the market problem, he's just saying an OTA is underway for the Legend that should fix that phone's specific problems getting apps that need access to the camera.
He says nothing about the missing protected apps, and nothing about the Desire either.

Just got off the phone to HTC:
Apparently there is a ROM update to fix this in the works which will be released in "the next four weeks". She was quite adamant that it wasn't just a Google thing...
I gave her a list of apps that I couldn't download and she said she'd pass it on.
She did say that the more people that call up and report this the better. It then lets HTC know how much pain its causing.
Get calling!

Oh boy ... 4 weeks??? I hope HTC will roll out a very good list of patches!
If it will include "Flash 10.1" with hardware acceleration, then I will forgive them (HTC and Google)
Google IO conference will be on May 19 - 20.

I wrote an article about it as suggested and its up
http://www.rcrwireless.com/article/...121/htc-desire-has-android-marketplace-issues

We should spread this out.
But, why do you only mention "unbranded" ??? Because this issue happen on ALL HTC Desire devices released till today.
And also HTC Legend ... and some HTC Hero still.

Good. Thanks for the article.
But I have one of the first T-mobile Desire's bought direct from T-mobile (1.15.110.11) and I still can't see protected apps like Tapatalk, Google Earth, etc. So the problem isn't restricted to unbranded phones as your article suggests.

[Q] Tips on creating a ROM

well, i decided im going to try and make a rom, and since im a beginner, i need tips and advice on how to. is there anything important i need to know? where do i begin? any info from any developers are welcome, and please. no flaming

only one bump, i promise

yea i've wanted to im have asked a couple people and the best advice i got was to
1.)download the android sdk from google
2.)download some roms or themes and to look in them and see what files are in there basically learn the files that make a rom or a theme.
3.)download a image manipulation (Photoshop, Gimp) these are the best i recommend Gimp its free!!!!
4.) WinRAR this you will have to buy or get the trial verison some computers come with this installed.
that about it thats as far i got.

Download 7zip because its the easiest to use (on windows, ubuntu has it built in.
Know the basic drivers and functions
DONT GET UPSET IF YOUR BUILD FAILS (easier said then done..i know, i made some RoMs in my day)
Know what you want- you should always know what you want before thinking about touching a ROM. If you like DE-Sensed, then know what parts to de-sense.
Know what the apps do- some apps are nonsense (like city ID, footprints, etc) and some apps make the phone usable (like a launcher), so never delete a main app off the phone without replacing it with a similar app (if i deleted sense launcher and replaced with launcher pro).
Push yourself to do more- if you ge t bored with making DE-sensed roms, try to build from source. I can always help you with that, as i have written up a giude on it and have done it many times.
and the number 1 rule:
LOVE YOUR WORK!

thanks for the info guys, this is really gonna help!

Your welcome...if you need any help, I'm always on xda or twitter
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App

Poll, how many apps do have you installed today ?

How many apps do you have installed on your wp today ?
(Note, this is not a poll to see how many you have had at one point, or how you don't need apps because of x, or need more apps because of y. )
Also, what are the top 5 apps you have installed the os did not provide enough functionality for ?
(This is also only a top 5 list, not how/why/when.)
Hopefully the requests for specifics will xut down on chatter and only provide the data for others to see. PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REVIEW YOUR FAVORITE APPS, OR EXPLAIN WHAT THE APPS ARE USED FOR. ANYONE WITH GOOGLE IN FRONT OF THEM CAN FIGURE THIS OUT FOR THEMSELVES.
Thank you for your data.
