The best way, as far as I can tell, is to use SPB backup to do a full backup of the phone. Then, install the exact same rom on the diamond that you have on the MDA Compact (read HardSPL thread etc if required). Then restore the backup from SPB backup. The difference in the hardware buttons is not an issue. In fact, I think that is the only way that you are going to be able to sensibly do it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] AndyCr15:
Okay, thats great, thanks. That was what I was thinking, but I didn't think to put the same ROM on there first. Good idea, thanks.
[Touch GSM General] wiraone:
Hi all,

I'm experiencing the above problem. It started last week when I tried to reflash the firmware to a third party firmware. The unit could power up as normal, wifi, bluetooth all working fine but not the USB. I've tried installing a utility which switches the mode from RNDIS to USB but it still failed .. hard resetting the device does not help either. Is there a way that I could revive the USB connection? I couldn't sync my contact etc at the moment with my PC.

BTW, currently I'm on Onyx Jr. 4.1.2. I could not update to any firmware due to this and I don't have microSD to SD converter which I could use to copy the firmware to the microSD.

TA.
[Touch GSM General] kngtut79:
Disconnect sync cable. Reconnect to different usb port on computer. Right click ActiveSync in taskbar. Click connections. Make sure "Allow USB connections" is checked. If above fails, uninstall usb adapter in device manager, reboot computer. It'll reinstall with stock drivers after reboot.
[Touch GSM General] computernerd:
It may happen due to faulty USB cable. Try and use another cable and on some other computer and check
[Touch GSM General] wiraone:
I've tried all that I could think off including removing activesync and reinstalling it back. I've few miniUSB lying around and I've tested many of them but my notebook just did not want to recognized the htc touch. I've tried using those cables with my wife's tytnII and they worked .. could it be the hardware problem inside htc touch itself?
[Touch GSM General] wiraone:
Tried with a new USB cable found in my newly bought GPS and if I reseat the cable properly, my notebook could recognised the htc touch. So I guess a new cable does help.. thanks all for the help.

Is there any simple util, which shows all actually available wifi networks and possibly even test, if they are open and providing internet connection?

It would be great help if you get into area with dozens of APs and looking for some free internet :)

Ranomly, my stylus won't "slide" into the slot smoothly. It gets half way in and then a lot of pressure is required to push it all the way down. I took the battery out and used a flash light to see any obstructions, but I can't see anything. Am I missing something?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] mfarlow:
I've just started having the same problem. The stylus gets very tight in it's slot, hard to push in, and even harder to pull out.

I would love to hear if anyone has found the cause of this.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] seanvree:
Yeah, it's a real BEYOTCH to pull out. (that's what she said)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Scrtcwlvl:
I figured out the cause of this when it happened to me a few weeks back.

Take a look at your stylus, you will notice that the plastic end cap can/has pulled(s) away very slightly from the metal base. This, less than a millimeter change, causes it to get caught on the stylus sensor within the holster.

Solution :

Try your backup stylus and see if that slides in fine. That is what worked for me.

No amount of playing with the sensor seemed to fix it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] casey.davis:
This happened to me my first week of having the Raphael. It was due to some build up of plastic, or bent plastic at the end of the slot. To fix it I took my stylus and kind of rotated it pushing it outwards along the sides of the stylus slot.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] seanvree:
Humm, none of this is working for me. I'm going to try my other stylus, but I'm not sure. I took a bright flashlight and shined it down in the slot and I can't see anything stopping the sytlus from going in smoothly.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Der_wahre_Phi:
there might be the switch for the stylus come out.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=432014&page=2

maybe that will help?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] seanvree:
Yeah, my stylus is getting stuck too within the first week of getting it. I can see where the sensor is supposed to come out, but it doesn't look like there is anything there, so why would it still be getting stuck?

Hi

Has anyone seen a countdown timer that sits on the todayscreen? I am looking for a freeware version.

The reason is I am off on a holiday in less than 3 months and want to know how many days and hours till I go just by looking at my phone - (without opening a program hence the today screen) I have searched the forums for a few weeks but haven't found anything yet (but that could just be my searching technique!!).

Once the holiday is up I would look to use it for other events that are coming up.

thanks in advance :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] SiliconS:
Wow, you must really want that holiday badly.

Job sucks, huh? ;)

:)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Wilsy27:
lol, yep!!

i'm going to new zealand for 3 weeks (and visiting someone out there ;) ) - going to be hard to come back after!!

I'm also competing in a Half Marathon a few weeks prior, and need to know how many days left I have for training at a glance. So ideally the today app should pick up on the dates from the calender and then display them on the today screen (I think thats the ideal way...but i'm not a programmer so wouldn't know for sure! lol). I've seen quite a few countdown type programs but none that sit on the today screen (from what I can tell - want to preserve battery life so don't want it running constantly which is another reason why I like the idea of it going on the today screen and the Touch HD (or mine at least) needs the battery life preserving as much as possible - usually manage 2 days before charging - have run it out in 12 hours and less though before now....and once managed 4 days before charging....but that was without talking to anyone at all!!!)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Wilsy27:
Still no luck finding what i'm after - searched here and other forums - if anyone has seen something that is similar to what i'm looking for, please feel free to pm me.

does anyone know how to program this?

cheers

count down timer

Hi,

Try this little CAB used to use it on my tytn but not tried it on my HD.

Hope it works, enjoy your holls.

(it works on the today screen so cant use it with TF3D)

install then soft reset, then activate through settings.

regards

Jon
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Wilsy27:
Thanks Jon, just what was needed and another satisfied xda-dev customer!

Edit update:

installed and running fine on the HD so far.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] SiliconS:
Have a great holiday. Hope she's worth it. ;)

(BTW, whereabouts in NZ are you going?)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Wilsy27:
So do I!! lol

Going all over, visiting both Islands -North and South and trying to see and photograph as much as possible. Will be there for 3 weeks but the time will fly by too quickly before the reality of coming back to work sets in :(

My next task for the HD is to find some New Zealand maps for TT7 (in English of course) .....time to start another search!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ktsak:
So Jon, it works in TF3D homescreen, no need for second today ? Is that right ? :confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ahmadiyyah:
Hi

Its a nice piece. But how to go about the setting. I can't find any setting in my blackstone. Thanks:)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Wilsy27:
Hi

I set mine up by going to the Start menu (I'm not using TF3D) settings, Today icon, then the Items tab, then touch T-Day Counter and press options on the right, then just input the the date you need to count down to and press OK top right. (making sure that it has a tick on the tickbox) and it should appear on the Today screen telling you how many days left

hope that helps

Is it normal behaviour of Opera Mobile, that it uses CPU as hell? Basic page loading and browsing usually loads 100% on CPU, not to mention when you have more than one tab open. My X1 gets really hot after 10m of browsing and it eats battery almost instantly (ok, its bit exaggerated, but still...)
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
Well, I don't know the exact CPU - don't use any meter,

but bear in mind it's a huge app displaying almost 100% content of the websites which are normally operated by few times more powerful computers, including flash and smooth scrolling......
[XPERIA X1 General] Wlk:
I can understand 100% usage while loading page, but its even for moving page, zooming and so on...
[XPERIA X1 General] doministry:
Well, moving the page is exactly where CPU usage is huge too!

The whole page is in cache etc..

You need to install hard-spl first before you could update the roms found in this forum.

Before trying out other ROMs, first update the Radio to the latest one, else the 2G Diamond will not allow phone functions.

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] tvaril:
Hello guys i have just moved from HTC Wizard Thread because i have sold my old Wizard and have bought my brand new T-Mobile MDA Vario IV. Flashing, Dumping, etc on Wizard was really simple. But in Touch Pro i cant get through the all things. Maybe it is my not very good technical english or something. All i do is just reading and reading and cant get through. So I have still my stock ROM for Vario IV wich is even slower than Wizard custom ROMs, so its annoying a lot and it is still slow after i made all the registry tweaks! I would like to flash new faster ROM but i do not want to do it until i am sure i could reconstruct my stock ROM in case of some warranty isues. First thing i want to say is that i use Windows Vista Bussines x64 so maybe all my problems are in the case of 64bit drivers, but i did not find any compatibility information about all the utils.

1. I went to the thread how to dump and reconstruct Touch Pro ROM. I made all the necesary things but i cant even extract any raw file still get ITReadDisk error which i find in the thread but i did not get any solution.

2. I have downloaded T-Mobile ROM from czech T-Mobile official pages extracted the file RUU_signed.nbh, but i do not know how can i extract it. ROM kitchen did not help, or even if i can use it to reconstruct :-(

3. I tried NBHextract file but i think it is not usable for Touch PRO. I got few files SPL, 2x MainSplash and OS image, all *.nb, but i am not sure if i can use it to reconstruct original ROM.

Point of this, why i want ot do it is: I want to load HardSPL but i want to have backup of my stock SPL if i need to revert my warranty. Any help would be appreciated :-)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rsw686:
I use Calkulin's Kitchen, which makes it easy to extract the RUU_signed.nbh and rebuild it. See the thread here or download the kitchen.

What program did you use to extract the ROM from your device? I used pdocread which worked great. Not sure if that works on Vista x64.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] tvaril:
I used pdocread.exe file but anytime i tried to dump rom i got the ITReadDisk Error, and any RAW file was not made just the first one with 0B size. Also i have downloaded the Raphael kitchen from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=411915 and my Symantec endpoint security reported Trojan Horse in RaphaelCustomRUU.exe in Tools directory.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rsw686:
Sounds like it is not 64bit compatible. Any reason your running 64bit Vista? Unless you have a need for it your not going to see much performance difference on a desktop, just a hassle of compatibility problems with hardware that doesn't have 64bit drivers.

If you use Calkulin's Kitchen you will need the imgfstools from the Raphael kitchen you downloaded. They have been patched to allow ROMs to be larger than 128MB.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] tvaril:
reason i run 64bit vista is that i have 8GB of RAM because i need to run multiple os in vmware. Will try it from win xp in vmware...
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] tvaril:
Anyway. Can i flash original ROM with all its parts shipped from T-Mobile to a device which has HardSPL applied? If i did that on HardSPLed HTC Wizard, i would have brick it...that is why i am asking.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] DarkAvenger:
I searched everywhere but I can't find. My simcard has two phone line, private and company. I need sometimes change quickly. If there is a phone on/off toggle it would be better solution. When run the toggle, toggle should be make phone off and automatically on.

Is there anybody to help?

Thank you from now..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] VerusAmos:
I've never heard of an application to turn of your phone completely... In Spb Mobile Plus there is an option to suspend your device though, even a reset option. There are other applications out there that do the same if you don't want to use the whole Spb Mobile Plus thing.

You could also use the on/off (hardware) button to shut down your phone, just hold it one or two seconds...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] DarkAvenger:
I don't need hardware on/off, I only need toggle software control Phone on/off Like in Comm Manager. A command will be enough to control Phone on-off in Comm Manager.

Why not just link Comm Manager to one of your long press keys for easy access, since it already does what you want it to ?

[Touch HD General] sk806:
Easy...

Patience....it can take some time to get an answer, and you will win no friends by posting things like this. Also, there are MANY threads similar to this already.

I do not think it is possible to have the volume keys do one thing (track change) when the screen is off and another (volume) when the screen is on, but cannot say for sure.

That being said, something like what you are asking is possible. You can use a button mapping program like AE Buttons Plus (free, google it) to map a long press of your volume buttons to up/down arrows, and this will change tracks when screen is off. You can map single press of these buttons to volume up/down. Or you could do the reverse (single press change track, long press volume). Either way, the keys will always control volume in call.

I recommend messing around with various combinations until you get what you want. Also, try a search and see what others have done.

Hi

I am not entirely sure, but if you use S2U2 to lock your HD the volume keys will automaticely work as you wanted them to be as soon as you start your TF3D player and let the focus on it in TF3D. So in other words just start the player and lock the screen. Ready to go :).

Hello!

I´m interrested in Android as well as in the tm G1.

Now the G1 is announced here in Germany for the second of february.

My problem at the moment is, that I have read and heard, that google is collecting data (everything)! So if you read the "terms and conditions", what do you think about that or don´t you care? I mean they have the rights over everything you load/send/post/get....and more!

How do you handle that fact personally for you?

Greetings!

Carter
[G1 General] jashsu:
That's just the nature of the emphasis on cloud computing. Personally my stance is simply to not conduct any business on my G1 that I would mind Google knowing/datamining. Regardless of what companies claim in their privacy policies, the very best way to 100% guarantee your data will be misused is simply to not willingly give it out. :o

Edit: also keep in mind that the (potentially) datamining portions of Android generally revolve around those apps and services which are closed-source apps provided by Google that are not a part of the Android Open Source Project. These include for example the Market, GMail, GTalk, and so forth.
[G1 General] Carter123:
ok, I get your point, but what is the G1 without Gmail/Calendar etc.

And thats all google.

Because of the poor response on my question I think that the majority doesn´t care about google´s data collecting hype.

In my eyes their acting is scary....imagine the details they know about you and many many other people....

just my opinion...

Greetz!
[G1 General] neoobs:
They don't collect any personal information. Not only that but they don't have people looking at these records. A computer does all the work, and is only used to find keywords.

Look at this site's search (the one on xda not google) it works by taking every word and putting it in a database and when you search the word it shows the corresponding posts. so post1 has wordA and post2 has wordA and wordB, and when you search for wordB you only get post2. The same concept is in place for google... except it goes one step further. The spider takes out words that are not needed. Well they have been using this for your GMail for sometime as well. It is why they have excellent spam control and it is why google is so awesome. They use the same process to check emails when you click links. Basically they are just trying to find out who uses what sites for what reasons. If they figure out all this they can better help you and the company you were visiting.

Chances are if you are on a site that is doing something illegal Google already knows it exisists.

And dont you dare make any attempts to disable any of their spyware or you can kiss YouTube apps and the play store goodbye. Its pathetic what they've done to Android and its users.
