[Q] No contact-picture in messages - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Because I still cannot post in origin thread, I have to ask here:
At Desire Z / Vision I'm using this ROM
Vision Gingerbread Sense 2.42.405.2-WWE Untouched (from OTA)
It really works fine, no lags as in OTA-Stock 2.3.3, but there is one issue:
In received/send text messages (original HTC Sense-Module) no picture of the contacts from addressbook is shown.
What can I do to fix it?

Porting HTC Exchange Active Sync to Froyo ROM's?

Hi. As you know HTC Desire (and I assume other models as well) has very much advanced Exchange Sync than stock Android 2.1/2.2 ROM.
HTC's version can sync calendars/emails/contacts (with searchable global address book).
My question is - can this be done?
Not that I've seen when I went to 2.2
I just backed up all my contacts on an SD card and reimported them.

A few questions about using HTC Desire on Softbank

First Question <-------- Solved!
I am currently on Softbank in Japan using an HTC Desire I received as an upgrade. I mainly bought it to tether at work and use Skype on 3G as I don't have internet, and I like to keep in touch back home.
So I rooted the phone, and installed the latest version of Open desire.
After doing so, I noticed the battery life was terrible. Reading a thread on this forum, I read a vague answer on why its being caused, and an even more vague fix. (I can't posts links)
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=781493&page=3
Is there a way to manually perform the modifications Softbank made to their Android ROM's? Except as a patch on my already installed ROM?
Second Question:
Also, though I really enjoy Open Desire, I really like the apps that came with the HTC Softbank Desire (mainly the calculator, Contact manager and the clock/weather).
If I install the updated Softbank 2.2 Froyo on my phone, can I just pull all the apps I need with the SDK and ADB.exe? Then re-install the apps on my Open Desire ROM after I flash back with my Nandroid backup?
Made my questions more organized.
thought I'd bump to see if anyone knows.
still looking.

[Q] UK HTC Desire HD with Softbank MMS and SMS guide please

Hello, I am a new HTC Desire HD owner. I got my DHD from the UK and I have it set up to use the Softbank network. I searched really hard, and I seem to be connected now. However my DHD has no MMS mail features so I am looking for some help with installing that.
I have read over in the Desire boards that if I install Jakesmod that I can adb push the mms.apk and get the mms and sms features, however I am worried if this is compatible with the DHD.
What version of jakesmod will work best with the DHD?
Are there special steps to take that apply to the DHD or can I just follow the exact Desire guide and will it work the same on my DHD?
Anyone in the same situation as me that can help?
I have fully permarooted DHD with the Revolution HD rom flashed.
If someone can give me some help I would be so happy and you would be my best internet friend for ever. ^_^
I am thinking of rooting my Softbank DHD, but the same issues I had on my Touch Pro getting MMS and SMS to work on Softbank's network have made me a bit leery of installing a new ROM. Does installing the Softbank mail app do anything? Where did you find the information to get it setup on the Softbank network?
So?...Did you guys get through. I am in the same situation and tried al combinations. Dosent work
Ok what I did was - i copied the mms8.apk file in the systems/app folder and changed the APN settings as per the black SIM (3GS and IP4 with sim adapter) settings. BUT STILL NO LUCK.
type - softbank mms.apk installation on desire hd on google.co.jp
the first link shows how to do the neefull ......
Any help will be appreciated.apk )

Some processes & Virtuous Doubleshot rom questions

Hello guys I'm glad to be part of this forum.
I installed Virtuous Doubleshot v1.0.1 :: Sense 3.0 Espresso as my first rom on my HTC Desire Z and I love it. I have some questions about a service / app which runs in the background and I actually don't find any information in google about it:
SWM-C
I see it often as a process.
T-Mobile name ID /it appears in the apps list/ - do I need it since I'm with Desire Z and outside USA?
And if not how can I remove it because I don't see it in the root manager under this name.
