Have a look at Texdro, works over WiFi and uses Java so will work on any OS

speaking of SMS via computer. Is it possible to make calls on your computer useing the desire?

TV guide

Hi Guys,is there a tv guide that works on our HDs,updated by connecting to Windows mobile,maybe the weeks programs on freeview.
Don
I'm also looking for this!
Me too, but for Bulgarian TV.
Doesn't anyone out there know of anything.It would be handy.
I am using TV-Browser.
A user called "Benne" wrote a viewer for WindowsMobile called TV-Browser Mini.
You have to install the desktopversion of TV-Browser. For the export to TV-Browser Mini you need a plugin provided by Benne.
I hope this is what you are looking for.
Best regards
here try this. I use this on my Touch Pro2 and works good, some of the menus are slightly off but still very very good. I forget where exactly I found it, I actually have been using it for almost a year on my Touch Pro and then my Imagio and now my Touch Pro2.
you could try asking the developer of OnTV
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548653
You can also try SPB Tv.
Thanks for the suggestions,lads, RKnight's one won't work on the HD but the last one is promising if I can get the listings to stay on the HD after updating as the weather does.I have asked the developer.
Don
I was thinking about developing a TV-guide for the touch HD. There are some open source XML sources out there that could be used. I went as far as getting a fully working prototype up and running on my own device.
If its something that people want I could get it get it to a release build?
Yes Please

Help! INTERNET SHARING PROBLEMS

I used to have a touch diamond 2 and it was all good with the internet sharing thing.
Now i'm using a htc desire
But today after installing the lastest version of my htc sync.
I plugged my phone in and have the rest of the drivers installed
Seems like the only thing that failed was
HTC Remote NDIS based device #4.
I did a hardreset like how the htc technician advised.
but still the same.
failed!
Please advice
I don't know but wouldn't it make more sense to post this in touch diamond 2 section, instead of the desire section? Edit: my bad, hope it gets resolved soon
huh?!
But now i'm using a htc desire

Not quite, he was referring to the TD2 as his last device so he probably has a Desire now.
OP, try to get that driver installed. I'm not a fan of stock internet sharing; this doesn't really solve your problem but I'd suggest having a look at PDANet.
man i really don't get how that website can help!

dual boot android winows

Hi i saw someware that the hd2 had dual boot windows and android.
as i use android i find it dosnt do all the things i want like tomtom, skype, divx/wmv, allowing you to save apps to the sd card etc, etc basically every thing i used my old phone for so i was wondering before i try n swap this back to a windows based device if there was a dual boot rom or somthing. thanks.
Every week at least one person asks this question. At the moment no, it can't be done. Furthermore, Windows Mobile sucks. I like hacking and modding my phone as much as the next person but can't understand why anybody would want this.
You can save your apps to sd card in Froyo. Instead of tomtom you have Google Nav, which is free. For divx and wmv playback install rockplayer which is also free. Perhaps you have a point on Skype though.
By the way the dual boot on the touch HD is not a "real" dual boot and doesn't run Android natively, it still boots Windows Mobile first and then just autoruns an Android launcher from the SD card.
Thanks for the reply i have to say i like tomtom alot more then google maps, skype are useless but i have credit on there and everyone is on it so free skype to skype calls, i am glad for the info on rockplayer i was under the impression all players were front end only and miss coreplayer as i dont wanna sit around converting vids all day ya know.
yay rockplayer rurles thank you whats the best voip alternative to skype ?
Is that the official froyo release will let me save to sdcard so if i unroot and flash back to original htc rom i can have official froyo with saving to sd card ? thats great if i read you right wares the original rom lol oopsi...
i know windows sucks but my experience with android hasnt completely impressed either. thanks for the reply and the info though mate its truly appretiated
oh and have great weekend
for voip try sipdroid
thank you i will do but if it sucks can i giv you a chinese burn ?

Fring is a video skype client. Windows is out of the game. It will take 8 min before you want Android back.

can i ask ware you sent your comment from thanks but does that mean i can use my skype credit with fring ? guess i'll go find out
I used to have a Touch HD , and ran winmo 6.5 ( rom ) and run " andriod " over the top.
It was not actually andriod :

I found sipdroid to be a pain in the arse and would not recommend it to anybody ...
Not tried fring though, I will give it a go.

You will have to root if you have not done so already do get froyo. It's easy and painless. You will also need to flash a new radio to use these roms or you will get white noise and echo on the line. There's a good selection of froyo roms now in the dev section on this board since the HTC build with Sense was leaked.
Once you have froyo you can either default apps to install to the sd card, or you can go into Settings - Applications - Manage applications - Select App, press "move to sd card"

Very new to the htc desire but have been into voip for a good few years, give 3cxphone a try for voip too. Found the sound quality really good and its easy to set up.
for navigation copilot is great. For skype you can use nimbuzz... use google or bing or ask searches... its not that difficult to find stuff.

[Q] Help re. reading / Typing Chinese in English Android Phone

Hi all, I am very new here and actually I have never used Android before. I am planning to get a HTC wildfire cos I find a good deal in Australia, I want to confirm the below questions before making purchase. Please help and thank you so much!
1/ I will purchase a HTC wildfire in Australialocal shop so that means it's in English version. I don't need Chinese interface & menu but I want to read / type Traditional Chinese in sms and browse the web etc. Can I just use android apps MoreLocale2 to read Chinese? and download to type Chinese? OR I have to download specific ROM to enable me to have those function? If so, where can I download?
2/ I've heard if I download HTC sync then I can also use my USB to browse the web without wifi, is that true??
I am really appreciated if someone can help. Thank you very much!
1. You can check with the shop. If it is built in, you can disable the keyboard. The Chinese language's file is just small, It doesn't use up a lot of space.
2. Yea, you can tether your mobile internet to your computer by using usb tether or WiFi tether.. usb tether drivers is provided by HTC in sd card.

Hello friend
I think the problem is that skype doesnt support windows mobile anymore.
I am not 100% sure but may this is our problem :/
Usually is, that after the ROM update or when you install Skype for the first time, the first login is slow - be patient 5-6 minutes. Next time go just a few seconds

Skype officially does no longer support WinMo, however you can still get the cab-package on other websites. They still support the use, they just don't distribute it anymore officially.
here is older version , which worked on my KS20, didn't test yet on my Photon. enjoy, and tell me if it doesn't work
you must be google skype for pocket pc , by me works..
if you want to use skype
just install im+

If you have to download Skype for WM, you can always use this link:
SkypeWM_v3.0.0.256.CAB
Cheers

Skype is a very stable app. no need for further support from skype
just as long as they wont block WM6.5.
