Recently Ive been noticing that when my phone is in standby mode, that it powers off. Usually a quick press of the power button brings the screen up, instead recently the phone reboots or powers up.

Not sure if many of you have been following threads out there about very high data usage on standby - my experience.I went from using 5mb - 10mb a day to 100mb/day.Unbelieveable.I tried searching for everything I could to figure it out - all the way from Location Setting swithed on to Facebook having a Calendar sync'ing glitch where it perpetually sync'd - never stopped.Hence racked up Mb's.The problem, I believe, for my phone was the Gmail constantly sync'ing. I guess i have a few emails with large attachments - 3-5mbs. I thought once it sync'd it to my phone, it would not reload them. I had sync on every hour - so every hour - 5mbs were used.Needless to say, i have stopped the auto sync of my Gmail its on manual now, and better yet i will just be using IMAP instead of Push email, and the problem has been solved.
I am now back to normal use of 5mbs per day 10mb on the high side.And that is with Twitter constant, internet, Push to Talk, and World War game to name a few.If you dont follow your data usage, i highly recommend you do. There are horror stories out there of people having to pay $1000 extra. I will be owing prob an extra $50.00 or more due to this issue.(In Canada here on Bell Carrier monthly limit is 500mb) I recommend downloading 3G watchdog - really good at monitoring data.Anyway, just wanted to share this story, as I dont think there has been an HTC Legend thread. And that is the phone I have.
I have a problem that every time i turn on gps and igo navigation my mobile network Turns itself on. Indicator 3g stands in notification but on home screen widget its off.

I will fix it soon, but I'll need a detailed guide on how to do it, I have seen some forums on how to do it but it doesn't seem that easy. I'll need a digitizer from fleebay & some tools, unless someone on the forums can do it?

I am pleased with the Legend, but at times things come up that confuse me somewhat. Recently a friend and I were taking photos and I thought it would be interesting to compare camera quality of her BB Curve 8900 with my HTC Legend. Below are the photos.
HTC Legend (5 MP, 2592 x 1944 pixels, autofocus, LED flash):

Is it just me or is something wrong here? (Forgive me naivety!) Also, could it be that I need to fine tune some settings or something? I hope somehow I can improve these shots.. the Legend's assumed superior camera was one of its main attractive characteristics for me!
Is there any application to restart the OS only?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Sony-Ericsson Bluetooth headset which I used for several years with my previous phone. I wanted to pair it with my new Legend, but for some reason when I press Scan for devices in the Bluetooth setup, my PC shows up, my neighbor's Nokia shows up, but the headset never appears. I thought that Bluetooth devices were pretty universal; shouldn't my Legend see this headset and pair with it without problem?

View 5 Replies View RelatedOn every phone i have had for many years now, pushing any of the buttons whilst the phone's screen is off activates the screen briefly (usually just showing the clock or prompting for the screen unlock). This is both useful for ensuring the phone is switched on but is just as useful for ensuring the phone is switched off (night, meetings, flights, cinema etc).
The only way of activating the screen to check the Legend's on/off status appears to be to push the power button. However, if the phone is off, this simply switches the phone on! This strikes me as being a completely daft design decision.
So, is there any way of checking that a Legend is off without switching it on and then off again?
(Yes, i know there are silent, flight safe, meeting and other modes...)
Should I buy the HTC Legend, or the HD2 ? I like Android 2.1 but the 1Ghz Snap Draggon Processer on the HD2 and also it has more RAM than the Legend. But the Legend just looks fantastic.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIve just come accross this app and constantly checking how it works and looking for solutions. So if you want to have as little problems as possible read first, then do stuff.Not so long time ago, iGo released their navigation for Android phones. It is a traditional navigation, in which you don't need data connection for downloading maps - they are already on your microSD card This is 10 times better than Google Navigation. I had tested the google nav yesterday on my way back home - the voice commands about an upcoming turn are said once you have passed that turn.. This means you have to be constantly looking on your phone. And with iGo it's a totally different story. It works just like a proper navigation (like TomTom, Garmin, etc.).So lets begin with the step-by-step manual of how to become a happy user of iGO navigation on your Android phone (this works also for other phones, not just HTC Legend).
1) Download the latest version of iGO for Android to your PC - http://www.fileserve.com/file/dpbJy95
2) How to install the app - from Android Market download "Apps Installer". Connect phone to your PC in "Disk Drive" mode and then unzip the iGOMyWay_8.4.2.139242_JMX.zip file into your phone memory card. Dont put it any different folder, keep it in the main directory. Disconnect phone from PC. On your phone, go to Settings->Applications->Put a tick on the "Unknown sources". This will allow to install apps that are not from andoird market. Open Apps Installer and then instal the iGO app.
3) If you need maps for your location - just look in some torrent sites for 'igo maps'. For example try Pirate Bay - The Pirate Bay - The world's most resilient bittorrent site . It is important that you download the R3 version of maps and not R1, as the R1 are for older iGo software versions.
3.1) Once you have maps downloaded to your pc, once again connect your phone to pc and copy maps .fbl files to igocontentmaps and the .poi files to igocontentpoi.
3.2) From my personal experience, you can run maps on iGO from 3 companies - TeleAtlas, TopMap, Navteq. The coverage of each map provider is different depending on country. There is no "the best map company with 100% coverage everywhere". If you need maps for multiple countries, please check the coverage of each provider and choose the one that fits your needs the best. I personally used all these providers for different countries (Lithuania/Latvia/Estonia) and at first all looked good.... But today some maps just dont seam to work. Have sent a email to iGO support team. Will keep u up to date with this issue.
4) If you need speedcamera warnings - check them here - POIplaza - Free Points of Interests (POI) for iGO, Garmin, Sygic, TomTom and other popular navigation systems. Its the best place to find ANY kind of POI in your region.
4.1)Quick manual how to get speedcam warnings running - connect phone to PC. Copy the speedcam.txt file into igocontentspeedcam There should already be 1 file 'speedcamupdates.spud'. In some manuals it says that you have to delete it, in others - that you don't. I left the update file and everything just works fine. When you have the speedcam.txt file in your phone, disconnect it from PC, turn on iGO, then Settings-> Sound and Warnings-> Tick the 'Speedcams'. Your GPS has to be turned on (and have a fixed signal at least to a few satelites) so that you could see the speedcam option in settings.
5) The previous versions of iGO are out-dated and had a few bugs. I personally could not run TeleAtlas and TopMap maps on my device. But when upgradings to the latest version (v8.4.2.139242) all looks good so far.
6.1) For those, who have a small screen phone. anonym.to - free dereferer service This data.gro file should make iGO work on phones with 240x320 and 320x240 screens. Didn't test it. You use it at your own risk!!!
6.1.1) For users of HTC Wildfire - here is a quick guide for you all! iGO for HTC Wildfire Special thanks to our mate indrek1!
6.2) For those, who have a BIG screen phone (Desire, nexus1, etc.) - you might need to use MOTONAV http://forum.ppcwarez.org/viewtopic.php?p=543174#543174 instead of iGO. Its a special build of iGO, but designed for Motorola phones. Big thanks for this program goes to biggdaniell
