test build of froyo on the Droid? hopefully it's not final version since it doesn't have wifi tethering!!! and also the launcher with shortcuts

oh btw, anyone looking for Swype for MS can find them here. It rocks!

Anyone have problems with bluetooth? I can send files to my PC but can't receive. Could the bluetooth dongle be a problem? It works both ways on a k750i
*I'm using a Cliptec bluetooth dongle btw

u can check at Setting > Language & Keyboard > Select locale.

I flashed to UK firmware alr~~
planned to flash back HK firmware to update the version, but all data will be cleared.
Donno it is worth for flash it to update
*
I'm having problems with the FB app after updating. Not sure if the update affected FB, I'm assuming it is since this is the first time it happen to me. I can refresh my notifications but can't load the news feed & profile section. Doesn't work on both wifi & data. Restarted phone also still can't load.

Can't find the chinese language option too. Maybe my update didn't go thru properly

Quite a lot of people is thinking to letgo of their N900 for Milestone... hmm.gif

Before I considered Android, I actually planned to buy N900.

Oh, BTW, does everyone get affected by the "acoustic sound" when calling or only a certain number of people? hmm.gif

I hope it is really the software glitch that caused this.

As reported a few pages back, there's a small update for HK sets which fixes the crystal talk issue.

Ya its a bit pricey but considering the fact that it can protect a much more pricey thing, I'm willing to spend. Good thing about the case is it has rubber layer inside it to absorb the shock and also prevent scratches from inside.
The downside of it would be the size n weight of the phone. When I show it to my frens, they thought its a gps device. But for me, I rather think its a brick tongue.gif

I would probably buy this if I didn't have the Moshi pouch already . Epikcase is not that big but it tends to scratch the phone doh.gif Oh well, not surprising from a cheap product laugh.gif

I think 2 guys reported that the gold color tint of the button peeled off d. Just unlucky perhaps, mine is still fine

Just to share my observation, I noticed Android phones with HTC Sense UI have less hidden menus as compared to my Motorola Milestone.

I was comparing my Motorola Milestone with my colleague's HTC Legend. For example, with the Motorola Milestone, after u install the bar code scanner, u can share your phone contact as QR Code. But for HTC Legend, after installing the same Bar Code Scanner app, he still cannot share his phone contact as QR code.
*
Weird, shouldn't the app work the same regardless of phone? Maybe ur Barcode scanner version & his are different? Probably ur friend didn't update the app, thus missing a feature.

@HK owners who have recently updated the fix that adds Chinese locale (that supposedly fixes the alarm & random reboot issue too), is your build number still SHOLS_U2_02.31.0 ??? or is it SHOLS_U2_02.34.0 ?

If I'm not mistaken the latest build should be the latter one (2.34). Although I've updated mine thru the PC, it still shows 2.31 & I didn't have the Chinese locale option in my phone.

Can anyone confirm it's 2.34?

Finally rooted my phone. Uninstalled some unwanted apps, enabled Market access & overclocked to 1.2GHz stable drool.gif

Have u guys heard of LinkPush extension for Chrome? It's like the feature in Froyo where u push any web or map links to ur phone. Download the Linkpush app and install the extension, it works! biggrin.gif

From a full charge yesterday morning, i did some light browsing (lyn, fb, email) on edge connection, few sms and calls, now the battery has 70% left. For me that is acceptable.

Btw, I always disable data connection when not using it.

Use only 30% batt for 24hours? Wow. did u OC ur cpu or run at stock?

Maybe u can ask the developer for help. leave comments in Market or look for his forum if there's one

QUOTE(kyleee @ Jun 10 2010, 03:43 PM)
power+ X button on ur keyboard(slide out keyboard)

this shd b work..press long long..dn let go..once u let go..u have to restart..if still cannot..

power + D-pad up button

only this 3 way..so either 1 will suit ur phone
*
As far as I understand power+X & power+D pad up is to boot into bootloader only(diff bootloader diff button to press), not recovery. Recovey is power+camera then volume up+camera

QUOTE(WLFung @ Jun 10 2010, 05:20 PM)
Latest 2.1 HK Firmware should build SHOLS_U2_02.34.0.
And I just flashed the HK Firmware yesterday.
This morning, the Alarm was working correctly. (Standby Mode?)

I think you update wrongly for the HK Firmware.
It should be done manually if you downloaded yourself not through Online Updates.  smile.gif
*
Yep I manually flashed to the latest already. Alarm used to delay for 2-3 minutes b4 this, now it's fine. But I noticed the music skipping issue is back!!! doh.gif

is the way enter boot loader.

power+ X

or

power+ D pad up

is for different version of device.

I'm pretty sure the ones I mentioned are right, coz I recently just flashed a new SBF(done in bootloader) plus did a nandroid backup(done in ADB/Open recovery). Maybe there are other ways to boot into recovery too

thanks, but my settings just came back after I turn on & off airplane mode.

Just noticed that my Internet & MMS settings are missing, as in I can't see them but I still can connect to the net. I think it's related to the Market Access which emulates other country carriers to access the full Market. Coz after toggling the airplane mode, I can see my APN settings again plus I had to re-enable the Market Access.
