Hey guys, just got my TP yesterday =) I compared a few units at Pda Expert Lowyat yesterday and yeah, the keyboard moving issue is there. The supervisor told me it's because of the spring system of the TP. I didn't encounter any problem with the voice loudness while talking on the phone, I think the volume is pretty loud. As for the speaker of the TP as well, it's pretty loud. I do encountered some problems while soft resetting mt TP. Sometimes a message asking me to send a report will pop out saying something is wrong with Shell32. I wonder what is that? Any opinions on it guys?

Hey guys, i found something annoying with my touch pro. Apparently the call history aint showing in correct chronological order. How do i fix that or i just have to live with it? Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

PDA Expert's software "updates" are woefully outdated IMHO

I agree with what Baron said and it's from my real life experiences as well. I asked them to install resco explorer for me and guess what version is that? It is Resco Explorer 2005. I reinstall the latest Resco Explorer myself and i might pay for it since it is really useful. biggrin.gif

Yeah, you're right. it IS deeper in the box lol.

Did you guys had the shop guy stick it for you, or do you guys stick the screen protector yourself?
*
Since i bought it at PDA Expert they stick it for me. Personally for me i suck at sticking the screen protector .

Did you use your device intensively like GPS, Wifi and bluetooth on most of the time? If so yeah itll drain the TP's battery pretty fast. If you sms at intervals and just talked on the phone then it'll last you much longer than the half day ur getting for sure smile.gif

Hey i found out a minor problem with my TP and i would like to know if any of you experienced this problem. I tested by calling my TP with my landline and when the line is connected, my TP will only start ringing like maybe 2-3 seconds. The screen will turn on almost immediately but the ringing only starts like 2-3 seconds later.

Can anyone give comments on the speaker volume during call? Is it good? I read on other websites that a lot of users are complaining that they have very poor sound/voice coming from TP during call.

I want to get this phone, yet there's no point getting it if even for the basic phone feature (making a call), it has problem (low/soft volume).
*
Hey sann, so far my touch pro is loud enough on the speaker volume during call. I didn't encounter any problem with it. The only downside is when you talk long on the phone, it drains the battery fast.

Are you using CE-Star? An unregistered/expired version will cause that problem, so you will have to uninstall it or register it.

From what i heard from the technical team of Pda Expert they say CE-Star might cause some problems with the phone. So he installed another Chinese Application for me instead.

I think the Advanced Config software does the same thing too - to prevent screen from turning off when in a call. I think it's called something like 'stop phone from going into sleep mode during a call'.
*
Yeah i tried with advanced config but it doesnt work. My screen still turn itself off few seconds into a call. i will try to search in xda-dev like Baron suggested.

newpdauser, check a few pages back, there should be a cab fix posted. if not check XDA Developer. malas a bit to search for u today lol. h11g, same case, go to XDA, diamond section (not touch pro) and u can see a sticky thread called useful registry edits or something. use that reg edit for TP shud work
*
Just tried the registry edit on xda forum and surprisingly the value in my phone's registry is already set with what they suggested. I think AdvancedConfig did it but still to no avail my phone's screen switches off while I'm talking. They also said after you turned the screen on, it'll stay on no matter what but in my case the screen will be turned off again sad.gif .

Ok after intense testing i found out the underlying problem. the screen will not be turned off until i tilt the phone like how we usually hold it against our ear. so lets say if u put the phone up right vertically the screen won't turn off by itself.

Not start menu.. I want the program to be automatically activated on starting up the phone. Erm.. the program that I wanted this to work with is Ariel Battery (the one that displays battery life in percentages).
*
Actually if you want to have the percentage battery indicator there is a better solution from XDA-Developer forum which displays the percentage battery icon each time u soft reset your phone. Hope that helps.

Hey Baronic i noticed something that you mentioned in the touch pro tweak spoiler area. the first tweaked u mentioned which uses advanced config to change files system cache to 8mb is essentially the same with the 2nd registry tweak that changes the cachesize from 16384 to 32768. On my device, after i did the first files system cache tweak using advanced config to 8mb, then i soft reset and check advanced config again and it stays at 8mb. After that i applied the registry tweak changing the cachesize from 16384 to 32768, when u check advanced config tool, the file system cache is changed to 32768. Did anyone noticed it?

Btw Old newspaper, i did apply the tweak u suggested to tweak the ringing delay but ym phone still rings after 4 seconds. sad.gif Did ur TP rings immediately?

Ask Maxis...i think TP can use Blackberry??? Here few hiccups for stock ROM TP.

- Once in a blue moon - all of a sudden in a middle of a call your TP just silence itself - people cannpt hear, you cannot hear people  mad.gif
- Theres a gap of a second or two before someones from the side could hear you (vice versa) during a call
- As already mentioned - theres a two-three second gap on the ring - still ringging after you hang up
- Not many softwares available for TP yet
- SPB Travelers works fine with TP, Mapking 2007 also better than TD - but my Garmin XT failed to get sufficient satt. Google Maps with GPS works like a charm! Can actually pinpoint me to nearest 20 meter radius!
- Volume during a call soft - can be counter with max volume setting
- Sandisks 8GB card works fine - still waiting to test 16GB
- Most of the issues i faced (for a stock ROM) probably could be address with HTC/SIS new ROM (probably before Xmas)
*
1) so far so good for me as i haven't experienced any sudden muting in a middle of a call.
2)I didn't experienced the gap thus far.
3)I experienced this ringtone delay and i will try out the file Baron uploaded on rapidshare, before that i cant confirm whether it works.
4)What you mean by softwares? ROM? or windows mobile software in general? If so there is a plenty out there.
5)I've never tried Garmin XT but i suggest you do the GPS registry tweak. After doing that couple with quickgps, my TP lockdown on satellite in no time. But take your own risk there.

That's all i could think of, if you found any problem do voice em out so we can assess the problem. tongue.gif

Hey Baron, Im glad to say that the file u uploaded did increase my ring time by 2-3 seconds. Now when its connected, it'll ring after 1 second which is excellent considering i need to wait like 3-5 seconds b4 the tweak. Many Thanks. But after i hang up my phone still rings for 2-3 seconds b4 it stop. I guess that is network lag or something.
