I am using Dopod C720W. I updated ROM to Kavana 18. It 's impossible to install Skype in my device. Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
why wouldnt it install? it should install effortlessly and just log ib with your skype id and go, i use skype on my dash just fine
Additional useless question...
"My Dash doesn't work anymore!!! Please heeeelp!!!!"
ok so whats wrong with it?
hard reset the phone
hold 2 soft keys for ten seconds at the same time and then press power button while still holding soft keys, follow on screen directions after that

nope. in fact, when i place that "test" call (the one your voice is recorded and then you're supposed to hear it) i can't hear anything..
I've tried Fring, Skype's own program, and then finally, Iskoot .
I found that because iskoot for skype actually connects you using your telephone's minutes that it was alot more reliable and better voice quality than a data connection.
I don't think there would be much success with Skype's program over an Edge connection. It 'might' be ok over the WIFI though, except it would probably drain your battery.
Anyone else? Do you consider Skype or Fring's VOIP useable or more of a novelty feature?
I'll probably revisit these again though once I have a 3G phone, and battery life's not as much of an issue.

Hi everyone,
I've bought an LG KS20 few weeks ago, and I've found it had important problem. In fact, it seems that I'm not the only one to have noticed this problem (French forum here).
Details :
During a phone conversation, the screen always shut off (so that you don't click on it with your cheek), and generally the microphone also turns to MUTE MODE. In fact, I can perfectly listen to my friend, but he can't anymore!! I have to move the joystick, or click somewhere to EVENTUALLY fix the problem.
This issue randomly comes up during a conversation.
Some people says they brought their phone to the seller, sent it for repairing, but got it back with the same problem.
The request :
Are there some phone genius that could have a look on it? Is XDA Community more able than LG Electronics for upgrading ROM ?
Thank you very much for your services.
i have same this problem
Well, I don't have a LG KS20 but I have a HTC Kaiser. Both phones are a bit similar, even having the same chipset. Kaiser did have this "feature" of turning of the screen during a call, but that would not mute the mic.
If you are brave, check it and see if there are registry keys like this:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\Sleep
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastDormantDisplayDuringCall
Try disabling them, setting their value to zero. Hopefully your device will not sleep while you're talking.
I took this from KaiserTweaks, maybe it works for your phone too. And be careful not to mess up with anything else on your registry .

No finally i've create the registry rules but nothing: there is alwayse the same probleme during the conversation!
The micro look like to turn off ....
Up!
Some news about this problem?
thks
I think that we have to keep our phone busy.
Try to run the media player in the background with a file continuously
Any news guys;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
hey guys,
my green answer call button doesnt seem to work. i'm wondering if its the rom or the phone. it still lights up but doesnt respond when i push the button.
any suggestions like a button tester program?
kind regards,
jason
Are you having any problems with any other keys?
If its just the one you can break your phone down and check your connections and see if anythings loose or damaged. Make sure to go to the Wiki and check out the guide on how to properly take your phone apart.
everything works except for that the green phone button
Starting to wonder about malfunctioning buttons posts
I myself posted a thread on my malfunctioning power button . I am getting the feeling that certain apps and tweaks are causing some of these malfunctioning hardware buttons to happen. Not exactly a scientific point of view, but I think lots of this button malfunctioning (no matter which one), can eventually be resolved by HR or as mentioned in another post, Clear Storage. I myself, within a minute, pulled out my SDMicro card out for 15 seconds, took off Quickmark application (last app or cab put on my system), and my power button turns on/off as it should. I had to resort to SR's when I had my problem..........................
Latest: Found out that my main problem was NOT any of the above,, it all seemed to occur because of a buildup of Notification Queue's,, so check that out... I think that those queue's can be a source of a lot of problems
cheers for that suggestion.
softreset doest fix it so i will have to resort to hard reseting.
lucky the vodaphone version has the 3G phone button and i can use that to get to the dial pad but it then assumes my calls are 3G which are annoying
has anyone got any suggestions then?
i flashed K's new rom and still my 'Green Answer Phone' button doesnt work.
thanks in advance for any help

i had a similiar problem when installing a different dialer via cab.
i would suggest to either install a naked rom (like pandora naked) or one of the older roms (like schaps v3.x).
do not install any other cabs and see if the green button is working.
i flashed pandora naked rom and it still doesnt work.
any one have any other suggestions?
if not will i have to take the phone apart :S?
the Irda doesn't work at all, when i install a program to use my tytn as a remote for my tv, and i try to clone my remote i get an error saying "Irda port being used by another application"
and it wont communicate with over devices via Irda. other than that it works great...does anybody know a way to fix this problem?
p.s. tried other roms, Irda works fine, so it's not the phone.
please help this lost soul!!
thanks!
sorry, posted in wrong area! rookie mistake! forget about it!
A general rule I follow is not to use too many .cabs as certain apps and tweaks can cause some of these malfunctionings to happen.
You cant be installing cabs for everything on your phone. Do you really have so much space in your phone?
hey guys i thought this was a thread about getting my green answer call button working again!
seem like more of a hardware problem to me. you can still try checking for bad blocks, flashing another radio, but that all may be futile. look up the disassembly guides in the wiki. mikechannon also has some stuff on that, if u click on his sig
Hey u guys! Ive got a major problem on my tytn. I have a Crc's 10.something last ROM (WM 6.1) and a big BT problem. Ive got it "on" in the comm manager, "on" in windows, both beam options on and that option "allow other devices to see me". Well the problem is that the other devices can only see me if I have the PDA on! I mean, if it is in standby mode, other devices can't find me! It becomes a big problem when I turn on my BT headset and it cant find the phone =(. Is there a way to solve this? maybe editing something on the registry?
try installing schaaps config and turning off all the power save settigns
nothing m8. No can do! everybody else can find their Hermes in standby mode?
anyone know a registry tweak for this?
Solved by removing those saving power options in advanced config

actually it didn't work. the bt doesn't go off when I put the device in standby, it takes about 3 or 4 secunds to turn it off... anyway I don't know what to do...help
Have you tried reflashing? I'm using 10.8 and it has no problems at all when it is in standby and a call comes in, or I start a call from the headset while the phone is still in standby.
If it worked briefly by changing the power settings, try doing that, then delete and recreate the partnership before doing anything else, that might work more reliably.
Yes, i already flashed 3 times! But all the ROMS come with power tweaks! My radio rom is 1.48.00.10 e I dont know if it has anything to do with... Its only the BT problem, i can receive calls and messages, everything works! Im using 10.8 either!
another thread!
you are a kind of hopless my friend
whenever you get any problem on your device, and before you try to understand what kind of problem you have, you open your mouth speechlessly, and you go directly "Hermes Mobile 6" instead of "Hermes Accessories" to post a new thread and ask a very sweet sweet question
Advice: UPGRADE -or whatever you may call it- to Nokia, SE, Sagem, Motorola or any non WM based device and forget about all these problems
That's the way it is - if it in standby, BT is off.
No fixes, patches or anything will sort it as that's just the way it is.
Sorry!

Im not sure thats right because I also have an HTC Prophet and Wizard and they can both be discoverable on standby mode! If it wasn't a possibility then why should the blue led blink in standby mode?
Feel free to disbelieve me and waste your time searching for a solution.
You asked, and I answered.
What you do with the answer is up to you.

i now see this is an all hermes issue that hasnt yet been fixed.
Although there are some registry tweaks. Does anyone know of a good one to force the BT to stay on even in suspend mode?
say if I want to turn off phone radio from 9PM to 8AM, but keep Dash on to use as a PDA. .. Thanks.

Write a Mortscript to do it.
ehh, that's a bit too difficultf or me..
I think Don'tForget will do what you are wanting.
You can get it from http://dashapps.googlepages.com
Thanks. I tried Don't Forget. But it crashed when it tries to switch to Flight mode.

What times do you want it to switch the radio off and what time to turn it back on?

Bupahs, that's so nice of you. Can you set it to from 9PM to 8AM? It's just a text script, right? So I can modify it later? Thanks!
I think this should fit the bill nicely http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/Communications/SleepWell-32308.shtml
There's a pair of programs i use(d). Both by the same company. One will schedule automated events (alarms, shut-off, etc) and the other will record macros.
Essentially you record a macro (choose start at home screen) and work your way into comm manager as if you normally would, and this device will remmeber what you did.
Next you would set an autorun in the second program.
A few things i have noticed..
Doesn't function perfectly when starting in LOCK mode, so you have to fake an unlock by pressing the unlock key and Z, then just press the HANGUP button to make sure it is on the home screen
You have to leave time considering for LAG with your phone, i would give it a good couple of seconds more than it actually takes for each step to make sure it doesnt mess anything up....realize that it isnt remembering your destination, just your keypresses and pauses...
Program has a VERY AKWARD and barely legible font, so trust it!
The auto-run program comes packed with a bunch of automatically programmed alarms and events, so delete them when you install
The names of these programs are:
MacroRecorder and AutoFlight ...both are by CyberHorse i believe

Personally I like a good simple and small foot print Mortscript. Why install two programs to do what a 5k script will do?

Thanks Evi1d33d. This one works great. The only minor problem is the Edit dialog doesn't like my font. Most messages are truncated.
Off topic but does anyone know a free app that let you schedule when the phone turns on/off?
I think it's almost impossible since the phone isn't running anything when it's off.

Sleepwell is great, however, I guess I'm missing something....
I can define the hour to turn on airplane mode... how about turn OFF airplane mode? How this software knows when I want my phone back? I couldn't find any settings to it, or am I missing something
I think I got the picture... you define one setting to turn off, and then define another setting to turn on. Is it? Am I right?
Regards.

I am having a problem with calls on my gsm TP2. It started about an hour ago when I call someone they cant here me but i can here them fine. I think its the mike but idk.

If by any chance you used Hd tweaks or instaled a audiopara3 file to make volume higher it will happen that. Just restore to origimal settings on hd tweak or uninstall the audiopara3 file that you installed.
Hope it helps
I dont have any of those installed. I hard reset my phone. Put two new radios on. Flashed the original wwe wm6.5 rom and its still the same. If i slide open the phone or hit the phone u can hear that through the other line but its not picking up my voice.
Ok. Now i have to yell into the phone for the person to hear me. Does anyone know the registry hack to increase mic sensitivity?????
