[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] KukurikU:
i guess i am lucky with my diamond AND my athena. if i want to dl/read my e-mail i am using athena, in my car, calls and gps also athena (i wired the headphones output to my car stereo aux in). diamond is when i walk or i am really on the field. each ppc has his time and use..hehehe..still i very rarely download email or surf when i am "out". besides i always have my trusted laptop with me, a very nice source for recharging the smaller brothers or replace them with his powerful wifi. i think i don't miss a thing in the "mobility" field.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jorlin:
@KukurikU:

Hrhr... I see your point.

I am a doctor and I do not take my laptop to work on a regular basis and I like using a PPC to quickly check some offline database for drugs etc.

Having the chance to check mails without having to go to my office is not the worst thing if you work all over the hospital. That's the same for checking RSS feeds or some easy stuff on the internet. I think this could be nice... and I just cannot take more than one device with me while working.

And that is more or less the same for GPS. If you are "on the go" you really want it to last a little bit...

As said before, even if this is not on a regular basis, you just do not want to run out of energy when you need it.

And honestly because of that I really appreciate that HTC is launching the PRO to address the different needs of customers. If I would work at one office place the whole day, I'd get a second charger and could just charge the Diamond in the middle of the day just within the reach of my hands.

But fortunately I do not have a job like this ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] naser404:
Ok, After a week with the DIamond, heres what i think.

The BAD:

1- Battery sux big time, barely a day ( WIFI,3G,Bluetooth=OFF).

2- Performance of the TF3D is not that great, especially opening sms's & emails.

3-A Lot of compatibility issues with your best Appz, some of them wont work.

4-Chrging with usb IS S-L-O-W & the phone does get hot.

The Good:

1- I love the TF3D, it eventually grows on you,just needs some tweaking to speed things up & maybe customize it a little.

2- I love the G-sensor, with time software developers can make wonders using it, example : Flip the phone now to silent.

3- About freaking time to have a vga screen, no way im turning back to QVGA.

4-Hardware is awesome, 528Mhz, 192/256 RAM/ROM and with modified rom, i see a great potential for this phone.

5- Ohh browsing on this phone is great, using the smart wheel, u can enlarge & its great, like an iphone.

-----------------------------------

If i was asked to weight it all in, i would still keep it & just wait for some roms.

If you didnt buy it yet, wait for the Touch pro, has a keyboard, 1300Mah battery & fullkeyboard.

I got the Tyt-II & actually never used the keyboard but i like the saying that goes " I'd rather have it & not need it then Need it & not have it".

Its a phone that has great potential but needs some time.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Jorlin:
I am wondering if all the reviews that are out right now have the final rom (/the rom update that caused the delay in shippment of the first batch of Touch Diamonds)...

If not, we might see some differences and hopefully improvements on some of the issues that people report.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] gohbkt:
For 1 week playing with my Diamond, so far never hang and everything looking good! :):)

--------------------------------------------------------------------

ROM Version: 1.35.707.3 WWE

ROM Date: 28-5-08

Radio Version: 0.93.25.NS26

Protocal Version: 52.26.25.09H
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] danwpeters:
I have thought about this too, I'm hopefull, that this is indeed the situation!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] marisa4755:
Regarding battery, I will get a second battery (normal, not extended) and the cradle that charges the device plus a spare battery. If I run out during the day, I will just swap batteries. Most days I won't need it, but it will be there if I do.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Flexer:
Mate, seriously.. wtf? :)

I read that review... That guy likes the phone! It has several shortcomings, but it's obvious. As several people said it already, with that thin a phone, especially a WM, with SO MANY features, you're bound to have some compromises.. And this phone still rocks!

Secondly.. Check the coolsmartphone website.. The guy had it for a week (same as your reviewer), but he made the review into a video-blog! SEVERAL HOURS of pwnage video with the diamond! Obviously, it's not perfect.. but you get an almost full overview of the features..

Seriously, some people's expectations are waaaay high =/
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] whistler-nl:
To be really honest i'm not under the impression the Diamond Pro will last that much longer (im not an expert but i think the battery of the Pro has 50% more capacity or something close to that) when you use your phone with the screen on most of the time that one will be empty before the day is done allso.

It's an improvement of 50% offcourse but i dont bet on it that one will last a day and a bit longer.

I received my Diamond last thursday and i'm still in the 'playing around' phase so i have'nt had enough time with the device to tell if the batterie will take me through the day. There have been rumors at it's launch there might be an option later on to upgrade the batterie to one with the capacity of the Diamond Pro so we'll have to see if thats true (some reported the device would have a sd slot allso so i wont believe anything unless i have seen it available in stores). I did see there are seperate batteries available so that might be an option allso (not my preference but it might be an alternative).

We should wait a little while to see what htc can do in future updates of the rom and maybe they will offer replacement batteries with discount in case the device really does'nt cope with average usage for a day? :rolleyes:

Regarding the ROM versions this is mine:

ROM Version: 1.35.404.4 NLD

ROM Date: 05/30/08

Radio Ver: 0.93.25.NS26

Protocol Ver: 52.26.25.09H
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ceevee369:
THAT needs to be blamed on HTC using extensive marketing tools each time for new devices. They dit it with the TytnII and now with the Diamond.

After two weeks of using my tweaked Tytn II and optmized ROM on the Diamond, I only can confirm tha the TytnII outperforms the Diamond.

Yes, there are good things about the Diamond - size - VGA - GSensor (probaly hidden Video Out) though it does not comply with HTC's "WOW, look at me " publicity. I would give it a fair 6/10 based on my findings

I'll keep it and await a Dutty ROM I guess to revise my current perception :)

last thought... it is rather a masculin appealing Girly phone :p
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mr_Ray:
And so does pretty much every other company with every other product in every other industry. Good Marketing is all about telling blatant lies. Honest marketing is all about telling a lie that stands a chance of being confused with the truth if you ever get taken to court over it.

Seriously, who is naive enough to believe *any* company about it's own products?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Flexer:
Can't agree more :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] KukurikU:
ouch!:p going to send it back!

btw, what is the mucho type? :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Aqrab:
one week with diamond

bad thing:

1- the device get hot when charging from USB ( but charging with the device is off no problem )

2- TF3D buggy (like the icon getting black)

3- only one hardware key to set (dispointing)

4- igo6 and miomap 3.3 not working :( (igo8 works but no map for my country tell now)

good thing:

1- i like its VGA screen compare it with the touch dual QVGA screen the touch dual nothing

3- 512mhz CPU :)

3- the camera is perfect its better than the touch dual and p3600 i dont know why you guys dont like diamond camera the only problem with the camera that when you record video in a dark or night its like you record 5 frames in a second and the same thing to touch dual
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Mr Farmer:
you could use AE Button for that
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ceevee369:
Video out seems confirmed ! Some good news after all

OK, I might give it a bit of a longer live if what I read (and what is now where confirmed yet) is true:

A Video out cable is foreseen - see last line on the below Cradle - charger link.

At leastm the Cradle looks decent :)

[Android Head-Units] André BMW:
My android head unit doesn't seem to be able to autouconnect to wifi. Here is my settings:

I use an iPhone iOS 13.1 with bluetooth connection. That works fine as its autoconnects when turning on the head unit. To engagen the phones Wifi I have to toggle the "hot spot on /off " on the phone as the head unit will not fint it otherwise.

As I understand the Iphone doesn't seem to be able to connect as the hot spot setting changes to off in the same time the Iphone autoconnects to a Wifi-network.

Any workarounds?

Im thankful for all suggestions.

Greetings from Sweden
[Android Head-Units] 007matman:
From what I understand, an iPhone needs to be on the WiFi Hotspot screen to be able to allow other devices to connect.

I'm sure it's a security thing. However, it is annoying if you're trying to use the device as a hotspot. Android doesn't behave in this way.

I'm not an iPhone expert so maybe others will have another idea. My thought is to either purchase a dedicated hotspot (they make some that are also OBD readers, offer keyless entry, etc) or switch to an Android device.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modaifallah:
The device already has treble with oreo vendor. Why no GSIs boot? With and without: magisk, permissiver v4, dm verity, decryption, flashed from TWRP or fastboot.

I paid to unlock the bootloader, now it's useless
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nation888888:
Hello, I have been searching for the bootloader unlock for this phone. Can you please tell me which service you used to unlock the bootloader. Since then I bought the phone I had been trying to unlock, I had to buy another Chi phone Oukitel K9 and have been using several GSI's and have figured all the issues

I have tried dc unlocker didn't work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nation888888:
Solved. GSI wasn't booting due to kernel and boot.img. You have to use erecovery back to the original and start over. Re-install TWRP. Found the latest works; https://github.com/phhusson/treble_...queak-arm64-ab-vndklite-gogapps-secure.img.xz

I am unable to pull the boot.img from the GSI perhaps there is no boot.img for Magisk. Also, I'm having issues with chrome and edge freezing, (using Fentec browser). Also the backlight is dim.

[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] MarioKempes:
The YouTube video is pretty accurate..
[Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers] madhits45:
Unless somehow your s10e ever shows you OEM unlocking then you have a unlocked bootloader but US/Canada models Don't and wont unless you crack that bootloader. U3 bootloader was exploited by sampwn, but since that there has been no bootloader unlock method. Hopefully lapsus$ hack will give us some hope for a u4-u6 bootloader unlock and we can jump ship to lineage. Samsung has started to slow my phone down a lot and I want the bloat off. Cross your fingers.

Hi.

I just saw notification on samsung members that they will push patch update to our galaxy phones which will somehow resolve the fingerprint issue with protector and covers.

Any idea when it is coming?

Screenshot is attached.

Hard to say, maybe in November

Tsskkk.. That's if providers don't get involved. Just like the October update, that was supposed to be very important, and was released a couple weeks ago, add always, providers ruin the flow.

It's been said for years, but Samsung needs to push all updates, and not let the providers get involved(yes, not realistic, but we're can all dream the dream), add all they do is slow down and mess up things..

Finally got the fingerprint update notification. Installed and loving it. The delay time from finger touch and opening the phone is much faster. Still not as fast but speed is so much improved.

I wonder if they can further increase the rate of which the screen pops open to make it seem faster?

I got a firmware update for the usb-c and biometrics update today. Fingerprint seems more accurate and faster. I couldn't user it before the update due to too many no matches.

I'm on Verizon and bought the phone through them. Seems Samsung is sending these updates to everyone directly.

Yup same here. I haven't even seen the update or even it mention the issue

Got the update and I'm loving it. Never had issues with the scanner before, but now it's so much faster.

Now if only they'd do something about the Tab S6 fingerprint scanner, I have so many mismatches on it that I turned on face unlock and registered the same fingerprint twice (once for portrait and other for landscape).

Got it this morning as well. You know, didnt have issues with it before but now after seeing the comments I have noticed it's a bit faster, smoother. Havent deleted or re-installed my prints since I had recently updated them sometime last week or earlier this week.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
i like how it says they recommend u dont use a screen cover lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] RockwellB1:
Screen covers aren't really needed anymore imo unless you work around bad debris like a construction site, beach, farming, etc. I eventually gave up using one on my Note 9 after trying a few and them all being junk, screen still looks mint. And now with the in-screen scanner the protectors really need to take that into account when being made. My 10+ is rocking the thin excuse of a protector that was on it in the box. It gets messed up, doubt I'll replace it since the device suffers from the curved edges that plagues glass protectors that I prefer. The protectors for these devices basically need to have absolutely zero imperfections between the screen and top of the protector, and I just don't think companies are taking the time to perfect that. I mean Samsung has been using curved edges for how many generations now... companies need to get their act together. Samsung needs to offer an official glass one as well as the plastic ones. And going with a cheap thing like the people in the UK did that caused this media backlash have only themselves to blame. Never skimp on your device protection, especially when devices are commanding the prices they are today. My 2 cents.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
I really dont notice a difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kxdaorbit:
For the same price, or even less (£3 - £5 on Ebay) those folks could have got a 'LOCA glue' and glass solution, which provides the best screen protection imho, with zero impact on screen functionality or performance.

When applied correctly, they're indistinguishable from the native screen.

My concern for my screen isn't scratching, but rather accidental knocks and drops. No need to spend the big bucks on 'Whitestone' or 'Amfilm' for the same level of protection.

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] stefr07:
Yes and I have already used gpay 3 times. So it's quite strange if nobody can have it, I know ..

Maybe in that way it could be fine for you too :

- flash a boot_patched like explain in ob1 theead

- clean cache and storage for play store and Google service and maybe do the same with gpay if you have already try to activate it

- safety patch should be useless but i activate it too

- hide Google service

Then you might configure gpay with success

So if I understand you correctly, you installed a hacked boot.img and that is how you are saying it works ?

I am on stock I do not want to install custom boot.img, root or magisk modules.

Clearing Google Services would cause my Watch to be deleted so that will not work for me too.

I guess I will have to wait for an official way/fix.
