2% from 4am when I unplugged it; to 7am when I finally looked at my phone. Smartwatch is the only app showing up. Wifi on. With Ring and YouTube notifications showing on my phone. ****ing fantastic.
[Google Pixel 4a 5G Real Life Review] shinigami777:
battery between 100% and 98% takes much longer to discharge. I suggest doing night standby tests when the battery is below 98%. for example: phone disconnected after full charge and the first 2% can give over 30 minutes SOT.

The battery in standby is much worse than in the Pixel 2 xl. It stays at 1,2-1.5% per hour. On the Pixel 2 xl, it was mostly below 1%, typically around 0.8% per hour. That's almost twice more.

Polaris Radio ROM 1.58.25.28 is reported to be available with some TIM (Italy) devices shipped. Can anyone give some feedback on this radio ROM version ? Has anyone dumped and uploaded it already ?
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] angelearth:
Didn't work for me.

My assistance-returned Polaris came with this radio installed and I experienced nothing but lockups, reboots and drops on each and every incoming call.

A real nightmare (btw, my provider is TIM). I reverted to Murata 1.58.21.23 and suddenly the phone started to work flawlessly.

Also, my rom *was* 1.40.408.1 ITA; I stupidly did not save it when I switched to bepe. If anyone less stupid than me can post it somewhere... you never know... :)

This question is what you have found is the most stable and feature full (or otherwise, e.g. simple ROM to add your own options) ROM that you use day-to-day.

1. Touch Surface 6.1 Public beta

2. ShadoW 2.0 TE

3. ShadoW 2.1 TE

4. Blue Elves ROM V5.0 (build 19521)

5. UC2.0 ultra clean concept rom

6. C66 @Series WM6.1 ITa V2.0 & V3.1

7. Throttle Diamond I multilanguage

8. Your original provider ROM (or provider upgrade)

9. Latest HTC 6.0 ROM

10. Latest Dopod 6.0 ROM
[Touch GSM General] !Aman!:

i don't use any of the above mentioned ROMs :D
[Touch GSM General] colonel:

Tnx.
[Touch GSM General] colonel:
I should have combined the Dopod and HTC latest and put another line for self-cooked.

Also should have had two other lines for PDAVIEt and Other

unfortunately POLL limited to 10 options and the HTC Touch is just so well supported :)

[Touch GSM General] Charusen:
Can I suggest that if someone is using a ROM that is not on the list, post a link to that ROM?

This way we have the opportunity to try a ROM that we might not be aware of?
[Touch GSM General] Noonski:
Also it's unfair to have Cesare's rom up there as it's language specific which doesn't make it a rom that a lot of people would test.

Maybe it's a Genius rom but only Italians know that.
[Touch GSM General] colonel:
On reflection the categories should have been modified to be within the 10 limit:

1. ShadoW 2.0 and 2.1 should have been merged into one option

2. HTC, Dopod & Provider Original should have been merged into one option

then the following should have been added:

8. PDAViet

9. Self-cooked

10. Other

Unfortunately one can not amend a poll once posted. And this one has some momentum so would not like to redo now. However a redo in a months time would be a good idea.

What is clear is that Blue elves and ShadoW are the most popular.

I would expect that when Blue elves 6.0 is released it will further punch into the lead.

Interesting nonetheless!
[Touch GSM General] Noonski:
Dude ;)

These Roms have been out for months and downloaded by many.

Looking at the download numbers your predictions might be off.

But PDAVIEt also has a great and fearsome fandom.

But swift coming back to Elf Hmm, last thing i heard he was busy with getting that horrible Diamond Phone up to snatch and with the rate of changes going on that will keep him busy.

Unless i have missed some posts on the Blue Elves thread last thing i heard him say was that he was not planning on making a new Elves.

But in numbers it's logical that Elves leads. More stable and more apps.

And people seem to like black.

But it does look like Graphics isn't always the deciding factor.

Works from the current version of

Edge, too (Chromium-based). Between that and the increased availability (especially at Beast Buy!!) it has actually become a rather sneaky option/backup phone (which is why I am looking at it - in either black or white - to my 3a (in Just Black)).

I have two queries.

I use T-Mobile's towers, and am in the Washington, DC suburbs - where 5G is normally available to T-M customers. Are Tracfone users considered T-M users for 5G purposes? (I am aware that Verizon purchased Tracfone - further muddying the waters.)

Otherwise, how is performance compared to the Pixel 3a?

[Google Pixel 4a 5G Real Life Review] SGH-i200:
"The Pixel 4a 5G’s audio quality leaves a lot to be desired, though. With the top speaker clocking in at a maximum volume of 78dB and the bottom firing-speakers maxing out at 94dB, the phone has a boxy and unbalanced soundstage. Like most phones, bass is pretty much nonexistent, while mids are muddled at higher volumes." https://uk.pcmag.com/mobile-phones/129327/google-pixel-4a-5g

"While the Pixel 5 hides the ear speaker at the top of the display, the Pixel 4a 5G has a grille in the bezel, like the smaller Pixel 4a, which lets the sound out. That, combined with the main loud speaker on the bottom of the phone, makes for a much better audio experience than the more expensive Pixel 5. Calls sound better, the stereo effect is better, and the experience when watching video or playing games is better. It's a better solution overall, and that plays to this phone's positioning with a larger display for those more interested in watching video or gaming.

[Google Pixel 4a 5G Real Life Review] Flynch3211:
At first, I thought that the speakers on my Pixel 4a with 5g were having issues. until I rralized that I still have the original plastic film on top of the top speaker and vibration was making the sound weird. that was until I removed the film on the top of the top speaker, and then... it was beautiful ;P

Hi,

I think it can be a solution for everyone who wants to use M$ VoIP and GPS in his Diamond (till today if you use VoIP, GPS goes dead).

IMHO problem was one file called dnsapi.dll in VoIP cab which overwrite original one in ROM. It caused that GPS goes dead.

I've removed this file from my OEM package and cooked a ROM with VoIP. I tested this and VoIP and GPS is working without any problems.

I using only OEM packages - if someone can make a cab file from attached OEM package and test it, maybe we will have a solution for everyone !

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] d3us:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] qsqa:
I'm not talking about Skype and Fring - issue was with VoIP drivers from M$. With that you can dial via e.g. Halonet from normal dialpad.

Anyone tried to make proper CAB? For chefs attached OEM package is ready to cook.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mcseven:
Hi,

Thanks,

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] qsqa:
Here you are...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mcseven:
Aaaah, thanks :) Saves me from Hardreset because the VOIP drivers wouldn't uninstall anymore... Have something in return: Here you have two CABs which do not install a dnsapi.dll, and tested them on my diamond. Works perfectly. You even dont have to reset the phone...

If feedback is positive, maybe the OP could change topic into "[solved]..."?

One tiny thing left to do: Change the ipdialplan.xml to make VOIP dial those "+1 (999) 1212 - 1212" numbers as well ^^

Thanks and enjoy,

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] iliescu902:
what gps program are you using ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] qsqa:
I've tested in HTC GPS Tool and Automapa (Polish navigation).

Anyone tried CAB prepared by mcseven?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mcseven:
I used tomtom 7, outdoor gps and mobile terminal emulator to see nmea records on COM4 directly. all 3 programs were running simultaneously and were receiving GPS.

I also tried to connect the VOIP to my asterisk, works as well, but cannot call any +1* numbers or numbers with brackets, since I dont know how to change the ipdialplan.xml in /windows...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] d3us:
I didn't know wich one of the .cab I should install so I installed both; I started with the drivers, it did nothing then I installed WM6Voip, it seemed to work. So I installed SIPconfigTool to configure my connection and I tested TomTom, the GPS was detected (whereas it wasn't with the original WM6Voip). Nevertheless, I tried to use my VoIP account over 3G but it couldn't connect (whereas Fring can connect).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] matt92:
works fine using tomtom 7 and GoSIP...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mcseven:
Yes, possibly the built-in VOIP cannot use STUN functionality, and fring can. I believe that to be a firewall issue.

However, now I seem to have that 5 seconds silence bug. I establish a connection, but 5 seconds into a call the diamond ceases to transmit voice. Receiving voice from the remote party however continues flawlessly. No Headset connected and not put into a docking station. Has anyone a similar problem or even a solution to that?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dennismdk:
I've installed both your CAB's. But i'm wondering why I can use VoIP to call? Should I have another program installed?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mcseven:
Well, yes. Use a program called SIP config (anyone you like, I use this one) to program your provider settings into the phone. Then make sure to visit Settings->Phone->"Internet" Tab and change it from "Never" to a setting of your liking. After that (and pressing ok in the top right corner) it should register with your VOIP provider as soon as there is a data connection available. If your phone places a call via VOIP, it will ring a short audible "beep" prior to connecting. I found no way to tell it explicitly "use cellular network" or "use VOIP network" for placing a call. Perhaps this will be added in a later ROM.

I believe that to be a firewall issue as well. Yesterday I went home from work and put the phone directly into my home Wifi net with direct connection to my asterisk server. Everything works fine.

Today I used another access point at work, and it worked fine as well, so if you are having trouble getting voice to the remote party it most likely is your firewall's fault.

btw I have not found a way to use the internal=headset speaker, it will always use the loudspeaker for received audio.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] unimog404:
