What resolution is your device? What firmware did you install?

Mekede have M6 Pro 3D firmware for 1280x720 screens and they have M6 Plus 3D firmware for 2000x1200 screens.

You need to install the correct firmware for your resolution.

As for the DVR not working, what model is it? Not all DVR's are compatible with the 3D firmware.

This post lists the DVR's that we know work with the 3D firmware.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
Thanks, I will try the M6Pro 3D ROM although the APKS in the Plus ROM has the proper resources for the 1280x720 screen.

For the Camera, mine is one of the supported cameras in the post (Screenshot attached).
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
I don't see your model on that list?

There's only 1 720p camera on the list and it looks the same as all the others. Yours appears to be the older type.

It's only ADAS DVR cameras released in the last roughly 12 months with a new chip inside that works with the launcher.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
Yes, It is actually like one of the models in this link from the post that you pointed out in your previous comment.

If so, Is there any way to make it work ?

I tried to delete the stock App and download the one in the camera but also not working, it used to mark with the previous Rom, Checking for updates from the app I installed says that there is no update, but actually, there is an update that I used to download after installing the one in the camera.
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
If it's the ankai DVR software here is the updated apk that the preinstalled app on the DVR updates to when installed on other devices.

On the M6 3D I use the apk that comes with the Mekede firmware.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
Thanks, I will try it and let you know, but is there a way to make the camera work with the stock App ?
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
It needs to be the new preinstalled app for the 3D features to work.

The app contains a bunch of hardware ID's that are compatible.

It's discussed here.

If your DVR is too old /contains the older chip then I don't think it will work.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
@j0hn83 & @Clandaries

Thank you, I installed the correct Rom and now it is working as expected, I thought the one I installed at first was universal.

For the DVR, the APK you @j0hn83 provided worked which means if no one could mode the new App, my old camera won't work with the 3D launcher features but only with the App.

Thanks again.

Can anyone confirm if the back mic switch is working?

I’ve installed latest version (Jan 9 2024) of this firmware and front mic is always on, no matter which option is set.
[FYT Android Head Units] Clandaries:
Yes it is. Tried it last weekend. When you install the external mic, then you can switch between internal and external mic.
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
What firmware are you running? My internal mic used to turn off with the switch but an update broke it and now it's always on.

Seems to be the case for lots of other people also.

Edit: i must have been testing this with the external mic disconnected. See my correct observations in post #177 below.

[FYT Android Head Units] marjanoos:
I've checked again because I've tested before without any additional microphone connected and I've expected that there won't be any voice recorded.

Today I've connected additional microphone and I found out that only one mic (connected) is working.

But in the end switch in the settings doesn't work at all.

In other topic I've written about issue with Bluetooth reconnection. I think I've reproduced the issue.

So if my iPhone would lose the connection because of being out of range, won't connect again by itself. If I restart the device, then HU reconnects.

Can anybody with iPhone check that?
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
I've checked my setup again and this is the behaviour I see.

With no external mic connected the internal mic is always on and the back/front mic switch does nothing.

With an external mic connected the internal mic is always off, the external mic is always on and the back/front mic switch does nothing.

That's exactly how I would design it. Not sure what the point in the switch is unless it behaves different on other firmware.
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
Remnants from the past. You see more settings that are not really "useful" anymore.
[FYT Android Head Units] marjanoos:
I would rather use one of them as noise canceling mic, same way it has been introduced in mobile phones since 10 (or more) years
[FYT Android Head Units] marjanoos:
I have tested also Android phone and the result is the same.

Hello,

just to tell you that i installed TRUETERM dictionary and it fits perfectly the Advantage/Athena screen.

It is a free software and give the possibility to translate several languages.

It perfectly fit my needs.

Thanks Giancarlo
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] vqscorpions:
most of the dictionary fit athena screen.

i also use some very good dictionaries as: MSDICT and MDICT which contains not only English - English but also France.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kdskamal:
I've just posted a review of ASUS P552W. It felt to me that I should do a post of how badly the Qualcomm 528MHz processor performs against the Marvell Tavor 624MHz CPU which is there in the ASUS P552W.

True, you can easily ignore the graphic aspects as SPB Benchmark is not optimized for the Diamond's GPU, but you cannot ignore the results which measure the processing power. Here are some screenshots that I used in the review

and here goes the screenshot for graphics

I cannot believe the Diamond performed so badly in the benchmark test

Read the full review of ASUS P552W
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Smaniac:
I don't understand why people seem so proud when they think their phones suck. This is not the first thread I've seen about it, and it won't be the last, I'm sure.

So, your Diamond sucks? Then sell it and go to another forum about your beloved soap phone.

And by the way, the benchmarks you posted have nothing to do with the processor. File system speed <> processor speed.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Arju:
i hate to see people flame devices.. well all the facts were cleared out for a long time ago and to constant bring it forward is too much.. well developers works with what they have and not with what they don't so if an application works better on a asus than a diamond it doesn't mean the following appp can't be tweaked to run as great as in the asus.. well i have a touch pro and i guess the specs are about similar to diamond and i agree with Smaniac.. the benchmark do not have anything to do with the processor...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kdskamal:
I'm not saying that I hate my Diamond. It is my primary phone and I love it. BTW, processor is involved in a lot of things if you observed the table correctly. Hardware wise, there is not much difference between the two devices. Both come with 256MB ROM and use 128MB RAM with the P552W being just 100MHz ahead.

May be it is how one company codes the drivers properly and one company does not
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kdskamal:
And no where did I say that I hate the Diamond. I said how badly Qualcomm processors compare to Marvell processors
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Sergio PC:
:rolleyes: I agree with you guys.

Entering the site and all I see is: "diamond problems", "problems", "slow","bad preformance" etc....

Personally the Diamond is the best phone out there (HD to big even though ill get one heheh)

Dont forget this device is fairly new not even a year old.

But I also have to admit, that with the specs it has it should preform much better.

Greets.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Arju:
well we all or many have seen the possibilities of overclocking older htc devices so if someone figgures out of it guess the possibilities are huge.. a friend of mine have an old htc touch gsm version.. i managed to overclock it from 200 mhz to a little above 300 mhz.. well yeah it might drain once battery alot but if you underclock it will make your battery last very veeery long.. we underclocked it to 100 mhz and got around 30 minutes to 1 hour more battery.. well that was a long time ago.. i hope there are similar possibilities for the htc devices which are hot right now sooner or later.. hopefully soon lol.. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Davey101:
Interesting review. Very good apart from some of the spelling! :D

I agree with some of the others - it looks like the Diamond's main trouble is the file system. does anyone know why the file system is so slow?

As for the graphics benchmark, the Diamond is VGA so it's doing at least 4 times more work, right?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] peterbonge:
Second: I think you are right!

First: Maybe because of your second assumption? Don't you think that all other things are afflicted if more power is needed for the graphics?

If these assumptions are correct the comparison of this review is absolutely meaningless! And this applies to most (if not all) comparisons I've read here in the last time!

In addition: The used benchmark software:

- is 3 years old

- doesn't officially support WM 6.0 or 6.1

- is not optimised for VGA
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] RaptorRVL:
Well, cut the poster some slack. His opinion is based on the benchmark. And when looking at that I can imagine someone is surprised about the huge difference. How the difference feels on the device is something else. But he has a point imho.

Sure with all the complaining here I can also understand why people act a bit hostile to posts like this.

But let's just face it, the Diamond is not really fast. When I compare the speed of, for example, tomtom on my Diamond and the tomtom speed on my yeeeeaaaars older Qtek s100 it's quite a difference.

From the Touch to Polaris and now the Diamond I have always been a bit dissapointed by the speeds. But I wouldnt want to trade my Diamond in for a s100 for sure! And I don't think my Diamond sucks at all. But the speed is.. well.. only bareable.

And now we see benchmarks against the Asus phone, and the feeling of slow speeds on the Diamond does seem to reflect in that as well. VGA or not, the Diamond is just slow. And I don't think it will be that much faster anytime soon.

The Asus is a phone I'm really looking into and want to give a test run soon. And perhaps it could replace my Diamond and perhaps it cannot. Who knows.

I don't feel the least offended or attacked by the OP. And he doesn't say the Diamond sucks at all. He was just amazed by the difference in speed in the benchmark. And so am I :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kultus:
OK guys...I will tell you something... diamond is good PPC but should be so much faster with marvell processor in many ways like GPS navigation, watching videos (not only in purchase must coreplayer with QTV) etc,...so why you just confess it...we are all victims of HTCs finnancial policy and sadly I have to say not only HTCs...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kdskamal:
What spelling? :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] o2neouzr:
the only things being compared here are file system and graphics processing. If you mean processor as CPU,then this has nothing to do with CPU.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] deuillevent:
Hello

I was thinking that even if the CPU was great, if the file system is slow the Diamond CPU will be waiting for data... and thus be slow.

So even if the benchmark seems to show File System benchmark (I'm not a benchmark specialist) I guess it must have somehow some impacts on the global speed of the Diamond.

I guess that even if we use a Marvell/QualComm/Coca-Cola CPU inside a smartphone if other hardware inside the device are bull****, then everything will be slow. This is exactly the same that in a full size computer. The device component quality should be homogeneous.

Maybe the flash component used for the memory in the Diamond are piece of crap, this could explain some strange behavior on the phone (like the enormous time needed to delete files in the Opera cache for instance) which does not require a lot of CPU obviously ans should be fast.

One last thing: Merry Diamond Christmas
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dannyoneill:
So the benchmarks are poo, device still works ok for me so they mean nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Is it the best phone in the world??? Proably not but for the money and what I need it for, its just dandy.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Wilsas:
As it is my 7the I just can say they get better all the time

The Diamond is my 7th windows device and when I bought it I was not ready with my Trinity P3600, just cause the 9100 of my daughter bricket was the reason why I bought it, but I must say that I never had the feeling of wanting my P3600 back, the only thing I miss is a integrated keyboard, my own fault cause I couldn't wait for the pro, but as far as performance its THE best phone I owned untill now, ofcourse there are a few things which I think could be better and I believe if HTC continue the way they do then they maid grow bigger then Nokia in the future, and ofcourse after that HTC is the biggest there will come some other phone whit more possebillitys.

I just realise that I can't compare my phone to a Nikon D3Xi and therefore the camera is just a piece of ballast which I never use , but with my camera I can't phone and if I could it doesn't fit in my pocket :rolleyes:.

I remeber my anger with the first windows phone I had the Orange 100 (can't even remember the realtype) but what I do remember the problems one by one are being solved and not in the last place here at this forum where I find a lot of dedicated and friendley people, complains about HTC? When I bought my Diamond I had some troubles with the network I didn't now that you must use best performance in stead of best battery, I contacted HTC and the wanted to pickup the phone next day, in the mean time found the problem and phoned them and send a fax that there was no need for the pickup nex day 2 times a courier at my doorbel to pickup the phone after that they have phoned me for about 7 times or it still was working, I don't believe it could be better.

Of course there are comming new phones and I don't want to say that I will keep my Diamond for ever cause I now when the next phone shows up I will get that irrisistable feeling of wnating that phone and yess Apple has discovered that smartphones pressent a big marked with lots of customers which are not like most people here who want the last bit of performance but in stead a stablephone which does what its made for and nothing more, in the mean time I am happy whit my phone and if I see the reactions around me I am not the only one.

W'll see what next year will bring I am stock for next year with my Diamond cause for the first time in my life I bought it for 18 months and just except some minor reasons I don't have the feeling yet to give this phone to my daughter ( and believe me she is looking desperate for an other phone for me :) )

My 2 cents

Happy newyear

Willem
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] RaptorRVL:
Well, for some reason my biggest issue with HTC phones nowadays is that they all seem to be slower than what I remember from my Qtek s100 (mda compact). Which is especially noticable with tomtom. Tomtom was super smooth on the s100 as far as I can remember.

Then the Touch came after a while, and that was a huge step backwards in speed. I was hoping the Polaris would regain the speed. But that was a bit of a dissapointment as well. Things looked up with the Diamond, but that one still lacks in the speed department. When looking at the specs it should be a really fast phone. But it just doesn't feel fast at all.

Sure, it's VGA has far better (and more demanding) WM 6.1 and software which obviously slows it down as well.

Maybe it's just some nostalgic feeling from the s100 (and that one had some major issues for sure). But speedwise things just don't feel as fast as it should be. Or at least how they -could- be when looking at the specs! (is a big difference).

That being said, I'm very happy with my Diamond. Even when it doesn't feel al that fast (used most of the ROMS here on xda, and speed is much better than it was originally) it's still one of the most complete phones so far. And I wouldn't want to trade it back for any other phone I've owned so far for sure!

But! This Asus phone looks really promising. If it's that much faster (e.g. speedy feeling is the same as benchmark difference) I'd be happy to trade in VGA and take the Asus. Especially when apps like TomTom finally work smooth again. And not only TomTom, but also video playback and all kinds of other apps.

But it's all very personal. If you go from a HTC Touch to a Diamond you would probably think "wtf, slow?! This thing is lightning fast!!!".
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Wilsas:
I came from P3600 and speed wasn't a major problem with it but I am shore of 1 thing the Tomtom which I have at my Diamond is by far THE fastest I ever owned and I came from a fixed Pioneer nav system where I never thought that a such small app could compet whit it and still I have with my Pioneer a fix at the moment that I connect my engine but TomTom at my phone isn't much slower it takes at max 30sec to get afix which is the time I need to fasten my seatbelt and start driving, even a long distance trip is calculated in reasonable time this was much different at my P3600 which never could make a calculation for example from my home to Madrid cause of nor enough memory for the Diamond no problem at all, the only problem which Tomtom gives me lateley is that it locksup for some reason which I didn't discover yet, its not because the trip is long which tomtom calculates it can be on any kind of trip.

I agree that the Touch 3d software was the firstone which I gave a kick and can't say I miss it.

Willem
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] o2neouzr:
the device "feels" slow because theres no 2d acceleration drivers. If it had that,this device would feel like lightning. the cpu is good,the gpu is good,the rest of the hardware is amazing. theres 3d drivers now,but the last missing piece is 2d drivers that use the gpu.

no,since data is usually put in RAM and then executed from there,not directly from file.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] grahamkdt:
Diamond...

I love my Diamond, faults an' all... just like my wife! :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Lord_BlackAdder:
I also remember my PC decades ago running DOS was very fast. And the PC then ran on much slower processor and had very few RAM. :) But I wouldn't want to trade my new PC with the old one.

I am very happy with my Diamond for its size, features and performance, especially now that I have flashed to the CT6 ROM (with the stock Manila tab). The only thing missing for me is the TV-OUT.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Wilsas:
That only missing thing will be substituted for some other only missing thing when it comes availleble :)

And things to wonder about "how its possible" will stay as the human keeps inventing.

Willem
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Carty:
kdskamal, when you made the benchmark tests on Diamond, was Manilla and other applications running?

Benchmarks vary a lot based on the ROM version and softwares currently loaded onto memory. I mean, the softwares that run currently! Obviously diamond needs a lot of processor to power the VGA screen, light sensors and lots of other things under the hood.

So in no where does the poor device that has nothing but a good processor stand next to the lovely DIAMOND!

WE LOVE DIAMOND!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Wilsas:
But we (or at last me) hate spam.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Kevbodian:
I am willing to bet you didn't go into the p552w forum (wherever it is) and make a thread saying:

Look how powerful this ugly phone is!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kdskamal:
Default ROM with manilla enabled (since this is how the device should be tested: the way it came)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Wilsas:
But it came aswell with the option to switch off the manilla of, ofcoarse its not in your favorit so why should you?

I believe that with tha SPB interface my phone is much faster as the Assus I can't test it bymyself cause I don't have a Assus availleble for testing purpose, and I don't plan to buy one in the near future, I gues yuo have a Diamond availleble so why not publish a test whit the Manilla interface disabled and tweaked? Cause the Assus isn't tweaked yet? well tweak it and do the test, or this shouldn't be a honnest test?

Use Core Player 1.2.5 with Qtv, High Quality, Smooth On. BEST FIT

Diamond: 74.80% in DD, 83.82% in Qtv.

Touch Pro: 77.99% in DD, 87.34% in Qtv.

Samsung Omnia: 134.21% (DD)

@kdskamal thanks for the topic.

These qualcomm cpus are indeed worse in performance (FPU, OpenGL, DirectDraw, 2D) even than year 2005 devices (Dell Axim x51v, which has also a VGA resolution dear Carty.)

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

@Wilsas why do you think that the touchflo3d will change much? If it's in background.. I really really think that it doesn't take any (or too much) resources besides RAM. So, the CPU is "free"

Also, if I like the TouchFlo3D, I have to turn it off every time I want to do some task-extensive job? :).

FYI, I've benchmarked the same video without TouchFlo3D (even without any homescreen plugin active) and the results are the same, below 100%, more exactly 87.73% in Qtv mode. So, no, the TouchFlo3D does/should not affect performance while running in background.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kdskamal:
I had done the test few weeks back with the Swift BL ROM(v7.5) too both with and without manilla. It didn't make much difference. Unless HTC includes the 2D drivers, performance is going to be shabby. Believe me, I love my Diamond. It is a breakthrough device from HTC which has paved the way for a new class of its own. The ASUS will be given back soon to the ASUS folks, it is the Diamond which will remain with me. I will again say it, "I LOVE IT and have no plans to replace it with anything soon". At Gadgetmix, we also reviewed HTC TOUCH HD and SE X1, but even then, I am not at all tempted to change my device :)

BTW, on the ASUS P552W too, I didn't deactivate the Glider interface.

The main moto was to test their performance out-of-box.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] RaptorRVL:
Quite an impressive benchmark there. The Omnia and p552w use the same cpu right? Guess the difference between vga and qvga are very visible here.

Must give one of these p552w's a testrun to see if it can replace my Diamond. Or perhaps be a nice addition to my already growing pile of phones :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] DSF:
Not really.. same cpu clock but different chipset
