[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zuzler:
Hello everyone,

I hope I posted my first question here in the right area (if not, shame on me :rolleyes: )

In the next few days my HTC Touch Diamond will arrive from Vodafone. I do not know if this is just in Germany but my last phone from Vodafone, a Sony Ericsson W810i, also had a "special" Vodafone-OS on it. On the W810i I was finally able to look up all the necessary information myself to make it a Vodafone-free phone. But as I read through all the available Wiki's, FAQs and other threads I am starting to see that this might be another level compared to what I have done before.

My questions concerning my new device are whether there is a possibility to change the "Vodafone-red-theme" to the original one which you also can see on HTC's homepage. Of course, the whole device should be in its original form, not just the theme, whereas the Vodafone-Services (SMS-Gateway and all the other service numbers which are needed to use the device). I think it is possible, maybe it has something to do with a "ROM-Upgrade" or so, as I have seen in a FAQ around here.

My other question is, of course, how to do that, what tools are needed etc.

In short, I need you to provide me the right link to a tutorial since here are so many and I do not know which one to take (and I do not want to screw up the device).

I hope that you can help me, if I accidentally posted this thread in the wrong forums might a moderator please be so kind to move it to the right section and notify me of my fault.

Thanks in advance and greetings from Germany (or Bavaria, to be more exact :))

We'll let you off!

Yes, you are in the wrong section... you should be in the 'Diamond ROM development' section, but everyone is allowed one mistake :) (Except, myself... I have infinite mistake allowance!)

My device was vodafone branded when I got it, and that's the first thing I wanted to get rid of too.

First you need to 'Hard SPL', which unlocks the device so you can flash any ROM you wish. Then just flash your required ROM. I would highly recommend AZTOR's X2 Ultimate. He has the philosophy of keeping the ROM as close to the original stock ROM as possible, only better, stronger, faster... like the bionic man (I'm showing my age now!!).

Everything you need is in this tutorial. I followed it to the letter, and now my device is everything it should be. It's always very nerve racking the first time you flash your device, but what ever happens, there's some sharp wizard in this forum with the knowledge to get you out of the brown stuff... have fun :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zuzler:
Hi grahamkdt,

thanks for you reply. I already thought after submitting that it would have been better to post this in the development area. I will contact a Mod immediately to solve that.

Thank you for the recommendation about the ROM, but there is still one problem for me:

Should I upgrade the "Radio" first, since in the tutorial you gave to me it is step B. Or is this just a prerequisite to not breaking anything? Are there also different versions?

Regards,

Zuzler
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] liamhere:
thread moved

now we are all happy ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zuzler:
Wow thanks, I also contacted tnyynt for that :-)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] grahamkdt:
Can't remember...

I can't remember if AZTOR's ROM's include the radio. It might be worth flashing a radio first from here. I use Radio v1.09.25.23 (Quad Band) (52.51.25.26H) - no issues at all.

Or, you could ask AZTOR if radio is included in his ROM's if you're really concerned. Personally I'd just flash one first anyway...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zuzler:
Ok, I will ask him personally (just seen hes from Germany, too - might make some things easier)

Thanks again!

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ke5in:
Hi,

On DCD's roms can the internal aGPS be addressed on an explicit COM port (in other words, NOT addressing the aGPS through the windows-managed interface)?

I have a program (MGMaps with Esmertec's VM) that is not able to use a GPS through the Windows-managed (GPSAPI.dll ) interface. It wants to see the GPS over an explicit COM port.

Right now I am using VZW's MR1 rom with the Valhalla hack. This hack allows me to use Google Maps perfectly, but I can not use MGMaps because the GPS hack only interfaces with programs through the GPSAPI.dll.

If DCD's roms expose the aGPS data through an explicit COM port and not exclusively through the windows-managed interface then I will be able to use MGMaps.

Thanks.

(PS: Yes, I am aware that under windows-managed GPS you can set a COM port through which programs can see the GPS but this does not work for what I need. I really need the GPS on a native COM port.)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jacksplat:
short answer: yes, you can explicityly use the port if you use a custom rom with a gps enabled radio
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ke5in:
thanks .
[Touch HD General] jenshamren:
Hi i have a problem with davideucks rom. It kinda messes up my volume control so its really laggy and it changes song when i press volUP twice.. any1 know what 2 do?

edit: rom version is 4.5
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
I don't know if this is due to davideucks's ROM, because I was using stock ROM and after a while I also have this problem. The problem was not there when the ROM was first flashed, but after some applications were installed it is there. The first press brings up the volume, and I expect the second press to change the volume, but instead it seems to send a up arrow key signal.

I thought it was AEBPlus, but I did a fresh installed of stock ROM, at which time the volume was functioning perfectly. Then without even AEBplus, the problem came back after some applications were installed.

Have not identified which application is responsible yet.:(
[Touch HD General] xmsnx:
Maybe it would be helpful to post this in david's rom thread? You may get a fix from him that way.
[Touch HD General] itje:
it would be better if you guys could ask this in the correct thread, and not starting new threads about issues.

If everyone started new threads about their issues/bug reports, then this forum would become the famous needle in a mount everest sized haystack (some ppl consider it to be allready..)

cheers
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
Why not simply change the title of the thread to describe the problem. I think it is a problem for other ROM too, so it may not be appropriate to post it in the Davideuck ROM thread.

To confirm, why not do a hard reset, and test the volume rocker to see if it works before any other software is installed?

Edit: I just flashed Davideuck 4.5 and found no problem with the volume control prior to any other software being installed into it. I'm insterested in this issue because I need to resolve this problem too on the stock ROM.
[Touch HD General] VizagDude:
There is no problem with Davideuck's 4.5 ROM. I have used it for a while with NO problem at all. Its really fast and Stable. I have been waiting for his V5 for a while now and just flashed another ROM.

May be you have installed AE button app and that might be causing the issue you have described.

I second the statement that you should change the thread title to something more specific to your issue or list your issue within the original ROM thread.
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
I would have to rule that out, as I did not install AE button yet when the behaviour changed.
[Touch HD General] homer285:
Another example of newbs never reading or posting in correct threads

Encouragement from "Senior" members does not help either, this will merely encourage more newbs to post willy nilly creating more chaos and more confusion.
[Touch HD General] Matterhorn:
Could it be your own 3rd party app? Anyway, this is not an appropriate way to label a thread, if you really thought it is specific to Davideuck's rom then it should be in that thread. At first glance a new thread with a title like that makes it seem that perhaps the rom is erasing the contact database or making calls on its own, not something so trivial as was posted.

Now, let's let this thread die by not posting anymore because it is highly misleading and we all know that Davideuck is a super cook with one of the best roms on offer for the HD.
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
I have no doubt that this problem has nothing to do with Davideuck's ROM. I think the moderator should change the title to somthing like "Volume rocker problem" and put it under the Blackstone subforum.
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
Anyone else having this problem?
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
Mystery solved

The offending software is Resco Contact Manager Beta.

Once you install this software, your first press could bring up the volume adjustment screen, but subsequent press will not be able to increase or decrease the volume.

To solve the volume button problem, do NOT assign anything to the SEND button in resco.

Confirm once again that it is not the fault of any ROM, cooked or uncooked.

So in the SPB Mobile Shell there is an icon at the top for email. When I click on it, it opens "Outlook Email" for some reason. I then have to hit the D Pad over to "Hotmail."

How can I make it automatically open to Hotmail? I don't even use Outlook email (don't even use Outlook at all on the pc). I have Windows Live installed, which puts a Hotmail account in Pocket Outlook, and that is the only email account I have on my phone. The "Outlook Email" that it is opening up to is empty.

This is on an AT&T Tilt running NATF AT&T loaded 5 final ROM.

HTC Home appears to open the Hotmail when I hit the email icon, so it appears this is just an issue in SPB Mobile Shell...

[General Topics] dressanderc:
*bump

I'm having the same problem, has anyone found a solution to this yet?
[General Topics] IceFragmatic:
Try removing the email widget and then create a new one. It asks you what account you want it to monitor. If you are using the widget that shows email, sms and missed calls together, you will need to replace this with the 3 individual widgets.

Happy SPBing

[General Topics] streetglowcruiser:
LEGEND!!!!
[General Topics] ninja_unmatched:
I'm not sure if this has been solved or not but I was having same problem on 3.5.5 when trying to view my gmail. Playing around I find the widget itself has a setting to "Open messaging client" or "Open 3D viewer" I chose the 3d viewer and Viola.

How I got to this was basically getting into the widget settings, usually by just holding down on the widget icon and choosing "Default Action"

I hope this helps some people. Not sure how this would work with earlier versions though. I assume it would be the same. SPB Shell is still very much the same in a lot of ways.
[General Topics] ninja_unmatched:
Next question is how to manually tell SPB to receive emails from the server.

So I uninstalled Palringo and everytime I restart my TP it tried to start up Palringo. Any Ideas on how to get this removed?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] airst:
i get the same thing. no idea.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] mbritten:
Well, you could try a couple of things:

-Make sure there isn't a .lnk for palringo in \windows\startup, if there is, delete it.

OR

-reinstall palringo, go into settings (in palringo) and uncheck run at startup, then uninstall palringo again.

One of those should do the trick
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] mr.jaguar:
use dotfreds taskmanager (or equivalent) kill the palringo app, THEN uninstall it.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] alexeyGE:
Install Palringo again, uncheck "run on startup" in settings then uninstall it...

i had same issue with palringo about it not saving my username and password ...............i then uninstalled a program and it started saving it i guess the other program was interfering with palringo save process or something
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] ptyindian:
what was the other program?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] GideonMouth:
I had the same issue... try entering username & passuord then exit the app. I found that if you dont exit the app after entering in your info for the first time it wouldnt save.

Wow, that was scary, i was changing from JF rc30 to JF rc08 and forgot to wipe the phone first.

I realized my error the second i pressed the buttons, but it was too late and i let it do its thing..

when i rebooted i got a image that looked like a microchip, with an arrow... nothing happened. I pulled the battery out and tried again.... nothing!

Panic and chaos, thought it was the end! (i have such bad luck with technology - managed to type 'sudo chown ~/' in my terminal on the computer before etc) anyway, as i was typing my 'PLEASE HELP ME' style message my mobile buzzed into action and took me to the recovery mode where i wiped, installed an HEY PRESTO

I am sure this has been posted but I have not found it. I hate my current ROM version for my sprint touch pro and want to change it. I’m wanting to try the proven rom 2.1 but am hesitant because I can not find the OEM rom for my phone. Plus I am not 100% positive that the proven rom 2.1 will work for my phone since it’s a cdma touch pro. On the wiki page for my phone it only has question marks for a link to the OEM rom. Is there a place I can download the OEM rom in case the provenRom 2.1 does not work right? Also, my phone is the CDMA version raph800. Please help because I would like to at least format the phone back to original like it was when I bought it. It would be great if I can find another rom that is better.

Thanks!

Everything you need to know about flashing cooked roms on the HTC TP is here:http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=68&sort=voteavg&order=desc&daysprune=-1. Also be aware that you need to HardSPL (unlock) your TP before you go to flash it. The direct link to the OEM roms is here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42741. Here is a poll in a thread of different roms and what they rank: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=52651. I personaly like the Juggalo ROM.
