Hello there,
my girlfriends phone (Desire pvt4) is now running S-Off with an oxygen hboot and this rom: AN-Droid 2.2.0 data++ --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426339
Everything is great (so thanks for this ROM and all the tutorials), but there is one problem left.
In the original ROm it was possible to store contacts on the SIM card, which had long names. With this ROM we can not add new/or modify old contacts. The namespace is cut down to 14 characters. Is there a way to change this behavior in Android?
Regards
Nobody out there with the same problem?
I think it should be possible to store contacts with more than 14 characters, but I do not know yet how I can activate this behaviour. Somehow HTC can do this.
Regards
*bump*
Is there really no solution for this problem?

Hey all, I've recently rooted my phone and been playing around with different roms. I was on LeeDroid 2.2F, but didnt like it so now I'm on Cyanogen 6.0.2 on my HTC Desire.
The only thing thats bugging me is the crappy keyboard on Cyanogen, on LeeDroid it had a couple of keyboards, the HTC one, and this other one, no idea what it was called but I really like it, the only way I can distinguish it to you guys is that on the bottom left it had a key to change from english characters to japanese/chinese(?) characters.
Anyone know which one I'm on about and if it's possible for me to get it on Cyanogen?
Also if I flashed the HTC IME Mod addon from the LeeDroid website onto my Cyanogen rom, would that actually work?
Thanks
There is the HTC one, the standard android one and Diopen. I think you want diopen.
If you unzip a leedroid rom you can find it in leedroid###/system/app under the name HTC_Desire_DioPen.apk, i don't know if you can just install it but have a try.
Yeah Diopen is the one I want, I'm pretty sure.
I extracted the .apk and tried installing it and it just said "Application not installed"
Anyway around this?
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 )
I have a korean english htc desire hd given ti me by my friend and since i use it here in the philippines, i have 90 sms character limit instead of 160. Any work around here? I have a feeling.it is about the keyboard and kanguage but i cant set it to like that.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
I have a same question for this, how to make it to be 160 characters?
Have you solved the problem?
I use HTC with Olleh service previously, however since I want to take it to Indonesia, I need the 160 characters....
This answer maybe old for you two but my solution is to flash another ROM. I have increased the SMS character limit to 160 with an American ROM (and it still works well in Korea). I'm still trying to figure out which setting exactly control this sort of thing in Android
i ve exactly same problem of limited sms character ie 90 only on my htc desire HD with Korean Olleh rom installed ,,,
its gingerbread 2.3.5 sense 3.0
If flashing a new rom is the only solution to this problem than pls tell me do i really need to downgrade the firmware before flashing custom rom.
and plz guide me the exact sequence of doing it as should i need to downgrade first then set the phone in s-off mode and then root the device ...
plz guide as i am new to all this ..... i ve tried to go though the information available regarding this but still i dont feel confident about doing it.
plz tell me some easy way to do all this ,, as m really confused
Regards,
BABAR
Hello everybody,
Warning: The following paragraphs (may) contain grammar errors. Please make yourself a LOL if you find one. -- A just-passed-exam Englsih learner from China.
I want to remove all the crap wares integrated in the system(stock ROM) that is modified from Desire 600 for ChinaUnicom. That's also why my phone is called 606w.
I've searched some Chinese phone forums. It is said that the system kernel of 606w stock ROM is somehow protected and that these crap apps cannot be removed even if you are an root user. Some guy posted a tool for deleting them, as an recovery like windows PE stuff on PC. But I don't really want to install another recovery. Some other guy, interestingly, wrote "It's more efficient than deleting them by using adb" in the same thread.
So I want to know if it is possible to delete them under the kernel protection and how to do it. It's better if I don't need to unlock the bootloader.
Oh, by the way, another doubt: how to change my power on and off animation. The ChinaUnicom icon really sucks. Could someone upload the original Desire 600 version, either one in Chinese or English is appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

By the way will 606w work on 600 ROM?
I also have 606w my main problem is that some of the applications crashes after I enable encryption!!!
E.g. Google Earth - crashes
Chrom (after update crashes, wthout update works)
Flash player (sama as Chrom, afyter update crashes, without update works).
etc.
Does any one know why the apps crash without any notification to the user?

What do you mean "enable encrytion"?
I just installed google service via GMS installer. Let google play handle the update stuff.
By "enable encrytion" I mean enabling the option Settings -> Storage -> Phone storage encryption.
Does any one has the same problem?
After fiddling with my 606w for a week, I'm going slightly mad. The boot animation of the stock rom is intrusive, and the chinese apps and settings are just plain annoying.
I've succesfully loaded spawns 600 images on my 606w, and on the custom roms, all of the chinese crap is gone. However, I now have no gps. I've use fastergps to set the ntp, used clocksync to set the clock. The device just doesn't see any sattelites.
I noticed a difference in the gps settings. On the stock 606w rom, the is an extra setting to enable disable agps, which is absent in the 600 roms. I guess that behind the scenes the 600 and 606 are a little more different than they appear.
If any of the xda gurus have any tips on getting gps to work, that would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.
Hello.
After upgrading to the baseband I9082LUBUBMK1:
1) Favorites contacts tab is missing.
2) Stock browser without history and bookmarks.
This issues are a "feature" of the new version or it is a bug?

just downgrade back via odin. BUT why not you try Pyramid/GENNXT rom if you need dual sim, its more feature filled. If you dont use dual sim, use one of the kitkat rom available
Actually I want to know if there is another way besides downgrading because there are improvements like:
1) Longer battery life.
2) Better keyboard.
3) now I can lock high speed network, before y just could lock to 2G speed.
Maybe someone knows some command that can be written in the address bar or some hidden setting to turn favorites contacts on.
It also can be that there is another way to achieve the same goal.
I also noticed that merge contacts is also missing but you can merge contacts selecting from dropdown list while modifying the contact's name.
Try flashing ? :/

I realized later that the phone was set to simple desktop automatically in the upgrade, that was the reason the favorites tab was missing.
In the browser now you have to press the left or right borders to have access to the commands.
Thanks anyway.
