[Touch HD General] orangecrush:
I JUST ordered a Touch HD two nights ago. No sooner to I happen to log onto HTC's site and I see the Diamond 2 is going to be released. (3G version for the US)

For those that have the HD, are you happy with it? I bought it because I don't care about 3G, in fact, my present Diamond Touch is set to only use EDGE.

Any thoughts? I may just sell it before I even open it.

Thanks,

Mark
[Touch HD General] mouki_9:
or you can always return it? Most countries have a return policy. Within 7 days you can cancel
[Touch HD General] ceanth:
I was due to order my Touch HD at the end of month but now im not sure whether its worth waiting for the new Touch Pro 2.

Anyone know when its due for release?
[Touch HD General] Snuurtje:
if you got the diamond (its not coming out just yet) a new HTC phone will be announced in < 3 months anyway. So why bother not buying one because a newer one is coming out. Thats always the case.
[Touch HD General] Behold:
Im happy to stick with the HD for a year until something REALLY spectacular comes or at least something new thats not been seen before. I have no doubt we will get somewhere with the HD as it is and i have no issues with the standard ROM for most use. its purely videos that suck.

Im waiting for WM7 for starters.
[Touch HD General] 69reichertm:
I send my back because with the new devices the old ones get noe updates anymore

perhaps once in a wile a bugfix for one annoying error

nothing more

to get new features - sell htc device and buy new one

hail to the economy crisis

nobody has learned yet to keep customers happy
[Touch HD General] orangecrush:
Well, that's wierd. I checked out HTC's site and the Diamond 2 isn't listed???

Wonder what happened to it?

Mark

Ahhhh, there she is.
[Touch HD General] ahmarchi:
i find it hard to believe there will be no wm6.5 for the HD..... i mean the specifications of the touch pro and diamond 2 are the same as the hd. 528mhz 288 ram.....
[Touch HD General] orangecrush:
3 factors are swaying me to stay with the HD.

1) 3.5 audio jack.

2) talk time is better on the HD.

3) Dutty has already had his hands on it. That's worth it right there.

Mark
[Touch HD General] Psygnosis84:
it's smaller screen size so that's one big fault already and as others have mentioned with no 3.5mm, it's all bloody proprietary stuff and you know how hard those are to find.

Stick with the HD, it's still the better phone IMO, that's why you pay the premium price on it though.
[Touch HD General] d.cortez:
the USA will be the last in line getting these devices... i'll have my HD (and hopefully some leaked official versions of 6.5) to keep me happy until a NAM 3G version is available toward the end of the year. i like what i'm seeing, just disappointed the USA has to take a back seat on releases... life goes on... :)
[Touch HD General] shagratt:
Stick to the Touch HD , you will not be disapointed. I have stock ROM and its working flawlessly. It's fast and the screen is amazing. I use it for video and picture viewing. And sometimes for music (I hear the new devices dosnt have 3.5mm jack, so forget them!)

WinMo 6.5 dosnt seem so important...What changed? IE7 ? use Opera instead, its better. File Explorer? Use Resco Explorer or Total Commander (i use this one).The home screen? SPB Mobile Shell 3 will be out soon using 3d (smooth effects) and will be far better.

WM7 will be cooked by some romguru on this forum when its out. You can bet on it! :)
[Touch HD General] orangecrush:
Thanks everyone. Sounds like I will definitely keep the HD. Like I said, I don't care if I use 3G anyways so sounds like a winner for me.

I appreciate everyone's input.

Thanks again,

Mark
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
According to HTC's website http://www.htc.com/www/product/touchdiamond2/specification.html , the screen is only 3.2 inch. It only supports HSDPA for Asian and European countries (again) - same as Touch HD.

One concern I have for the design is the presence of the zoom slider directly below the screen. I think many users are going to touch it accidentally and cause unwanted zooming in/out effect.
[Touch HD General] Psygnosis84:
I think the price will be the best thing about this. The original diamond was around $AUD800-900 released here so if it's the same price then my brother is considering it.
[Touch HD General] CorruptedSanity:
Before getting the HD, I was a happy TyTN II user. Sure I wished for at least VGA and a larger screen but I was content (with the technology back then). But when the super sexy HD came out with WVGA and faster performance I was interested but the lack of keyboard held me back till I found out I could manipulate the screen to horizontal for any "serious typing" since the landscape keyboard was almost the same size in length as the physical keyboard. Now with FingerKeyboard (the black & red) I am completely satisfied. I gained light-weight and thin and able to type.
[Touch HD General] tuηay:
I was in same posison, I seems to HD too :cool:
[Touch HD General] Beards:
Unquestionably it would be the Touch HD.

.... and why ~ Well because it is here right now.

I don't follow the 'waiting game' camp of users.

I need technology now. The HD gives me all I need and some.
[Touch HD General] gadgetuk437:
Ask yourself,

Do you need a new phone now?... or are you prepared to wait the 3 - 6 months it'll take the TP II to hit the shelves?
[Touch HD General] gellofish:
Just had a look on the HTC site ... that pro 2 looks gorgeous. I am very happy with my HD but I am now a little annoyed. Got another 18 months to wait!!
[Touch HD General] nurotic:
Yup HD all the way. You can't beat the 3.8 screen. The battery life is brilliant. I'm yet to be convinced that the 1100mha battery on the D2 will beat the HD.

the only thing im really interested in is the TouchFLO 3D V2.

The intergration into WM6.1 is sweet. I'll be holding onto my HD and wait for the TF3D V2 to be extracted from D2.

Big-up to Dutty and other cooks out there.
[Touch HD General] Insaneboy:
Imo HD is better than Diamond 2:

1) Bigger screen

2) 3.5 mm jack

Come on HTC, i thought you've learned with the HD - always go with the 3.5 mm jack!!
[Touch HD General] jetjockgordo:
I see this comment quite often but I am confused, I convert my DVD's using DVDCatalyst www.pocketdvd.ca using their "HTC Touch HD HQ" mode (and up the quality to 900 Kbps) and playback using, yes, Windows Media Player looks as smooth and sharp as can be. I have converted a couple dozen movies with this combo and couldn't be happier. Even action is smooth with almost no tearing/pixelating. Coreplayer doesn't seem to want to play nice with the HD but the TF3D player and WMP works very well (albeit not the most user friendly). If you want to convert any movie to watch on the HD then try that combo out.

Regards,

Gordo
[Touch HD General] syqe:
what's the fuss? diamond2 is just like the hd, but worse. oh right has a zoom bar.
[Touch HD General] johnpatcher:
I guess it won't work within all programs, and at least Opera provides such a functionality on a software base, so I don't think it is really useful.
[Touch HD General] stoolzo:
drivers

I dont suppose these new versions will have the chipset drivers we all need as well, another batch of underperforming handsets that all look nice but are sh!t.

F*cking HTC make me wanna Puke, I love my HD but it could be soooo much better....!
[Touch HD General] Wavac:
If you know WHY you are buying a phone then there is no need to upgrade all the time.

And HD is a lot better than Diamond 2 and Touch Pro 2 for MY needs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nerdstrap:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2AOukFSz5o

-widgets

-flexible engine (open development of widgets?)

-hardware accelaration support (will my mogul run faster?)

-facebook integrated into contacts!

-multiple home pages

-professional and lifestyle (huh?) layout

-kinetic scrolling

-fully customizable (themes supported?)

This can tide everyone over until 6.5! Way better than TouchFlo (IMO).

Amazing

Looks Amazing. Hmm Should I get ready to remove Manilla 2D off my Omina? :confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JNGold:
Not if SPB hasn't really done away with the standard Today screen. One of the reasons I didn't switch over to 2.0 was the fact that the Mobile Shell home screen did not replace the today screen. I know there's an XDA hack for that functionality, but MS 3.0 should take lesson from PointUI and replace today completely.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SiLviO_:
this looks awesome. :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] arty:
their standard/default themes always sucked. and somehow 3.0 looks just like 2.0 just with a little tune up..hmm...after all this announcements im a little bit disappointed.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ycats:
was it announced when this would be available?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] caballero600:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JonnoB:
I am a little dissapointed. When I heard about Facebook integration, for some reason I was thinking of the ability to use chat, change status, etc... instead it is just a way to get the profile photo to the contact in your address book. Bummer.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] smilepak:
I agree. Not much better than the current version. Should've integrated a few apps would've made it more useful. new version of mobile shell might make current skin invalid too.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] friguy33:
So this is basically the same, but a little "upgraded." By not changing the overall idea at all, the same reasons I dont use 2 will be the same reasons I dont use 3. I was expecting so much more with the hype. PointUI kills this. Kills. When will they learn, keep it simple, make it customizable. Oh well.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kbshowtyme:
It looks ok but PointUI didn't do anything for me either so I'll stick with my TF3D till either is truely better.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Lokosis:
Glad to see they're trying something new since TouchFLO pretty much made me stop using Mobile Shell as it did what I needed, and it came with my OS, rather than having to install something on top.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JukEboXAuDiO:
Since when is PointUI customizable? I have used it and there is not customization built into it.

Any idea on when the beta of SPB3 will be out?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] j.edwards:
JukEboXAuDiO, you seriously must be joking right! Pointui Home not customizable? Is being able to replace every graphic in the app, being the only UI with scripting support to allow you to build all sorts of applets and things, and being able to customize the background through the entire app not quite enough customization for you? Or are you referring to the old version released 12 mths ago?
[Touch Pro CDMA] Deltatristar500:
Hi, I have total commander, and when I download files, it automatically opens zips or cab files, and more annoyingly it automatically starts to installed the downloaded cab files. Is there a way to disable this feature in Total Commander?
[Touch Pro CDMA] datawrhsdoc:
I dont think that's TC, but rather it is a function of the browser. Any chance you are using IE to download. Its default is to open files when download is complete. You need to uncheck the checkbox at downlosd time if that is the case.

-Doc
[Touch Pro CDMA] Deltatristar500:
Im using Skyfire
[Touch Pro CDMA] Deltatristar500:
Your right, I uninstalled TC and used IE to download a file, I noticed that the option to open file after download was enabled, so I unchecked it. However, I use Skyfire and I dont have an option for downloads. I downloaded a zip file and sure enough after downloading, it open the zip file. There has to be something that is auto opening zips...cabs...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] meridianblade:
Just going to preface that all of this is off the top of my head since i'm at work and the phones at home. :)

So my tilt is stuck on the bootloader screen, I never modded it and im using the stock 6.1 rom, I turned it on one day and it was on the tri-color screen. Here's what i've done to try and fix it.

Running the ATT stock 6.1 upgrade over USB: XP and Vista wouldn't even recognize it till I held [ok, power, and the reset button together] first time it errored at 14%, second time it completed at 100%. after restarting it was back at the bootloader screen.

Tried putting the official rom on the SD card: It recognized, and started the upgrade process, went to 100% saying it finished with no errors, rebooted back to the bootloader screen.

mtty: had to hold [ok, power, and the reset button together] to get vista to recognize the device. The command BOOT does not work. Can't remember the other commands off the top of my head, but following the guide I cleared the memory, (NOT the a2 or w/e command that nukes everything) it said it found a few bad blocks and repaired them I think, then I set it to load the OS and not the bootloader..

Attempted to install the stock 6.1 rom, went to 100%... stuck on bootloader after restart.

Any idea what to try from here guys?

Thanks! :-)

Hi,

Gents do you know what are the registry keys that map the 4 buttons on the Blackstone ?

Ive tried Resco Contact Manager and it did map the "call" ( l____| ) key to itself.

I would like to remap it back to Phone/dialpad ?? (not sure how it is called in registers)

Thanks

[Touch 3G General] azahidi:
First of all, while the phone is working.. BACKUP all data.

Then try this...

Hardreset (I don't see any other solution).. then RESTORE data.
[Touch 3G General] izzyzc:
If the above post doesn't work, then maybe you should have that unit replaced while it's still under warranty (I assume)...
[Touch 3G General] prankstar:
I also experienced the same a while ago. All of a sudden, after 2 weeks of using, it hung. The only thing I did was having it a day connected to the internet and loading 150 emails into the newly created account. I experienced a slower operating system, though, and the hanging of the Jade could be linked to this full inbox.

Btw. no additional software installed or tweaks. At that time, I only had NoData installed and TomTom.

For some reason, when the backlight went off, the wake up hard button on the Jade didn't function either, so I had to take out the battery every time to make a call. Rediculous...

The solution for me was indeed to hard reset. Soft resets or configuration chagnes didn't work. After the hard reset, no problems anymore...
[HTC Vox] baubau646:
i tried to reinstall a new rom on my htc vox. i've done all things right, USPL 1.16, phone entered bootloader. then i tried to install the new rom and at 3% i recieved the following message: flash error.

i tried with a couple of roms, same thing. why did that happen? then i tried to reinstall an official rom, didnt work, SPL changed to 1.34, and phone went to service, new mainboard, back to orange rom.

so, why did i recieve that message? i dont want to repeat the procces without finding the reasons why it didnt work.

sorry for bad english
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dj_aleks:
Hi!

I'm kinda new here so bare with me...

i've searched without any luck to finding the answer to my question...

When someone calls me, the diamond gives me the choice to reject the call and texting the caller with a predefined message...the problem is that i have to actually send the damn message after haning up...wich kinda takes the whole idea away of having the phone doing it...

Now, is there anyway i can make the damn sms get sent without me having to actually click the send button?? just reject the call and let the phone do the job?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dj_aleks:
Come on, somebody has got to have had the same issue?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] steveianson:
Go to Settings.. Phone... Advanced (right at the right hand end) then de-select "Reject call with text message"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] dj_aleks:
i think you misunderstood me, i don´t want to turn off the feature, just make it do the whole procedure and not stop right before the message gets sent.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] harolds:
Uncheck the option to edit the text message, on the advance tab.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] vishalkishnani:
Well nobody is understanding what he is saying.

This is a good idea, infact i also wanted to do the same thing.

What we want is that as soon as we reject the call with send text button phone should directly send the message to the caller (with predefined text) without opening the predefined compose messsage and then we click send again to let the sms shoot to the caller.

I think this feature wont be possible with soft reject or hard reject key coz then it will send sms to each and every caller or even to landline caller. There should be other soft key just like "Send Text" soft key where we press it and automatically phone sends the sms to the caller.

Hope i am able to explain.

Regards,

Vishal
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] GXeed:
Reject++

If you are looking for an app to let you reject incoming calls with predefined or custom SMS and setup a reminder to return a call as well..

so check Reject++

You can:

- Reject a call with SMS, Reminder, Or Both.

- Convenient Slider on top of incoming call screen, slider it up and go with Reject++

- Smart SMS Templates with "Tags"

- Smart Reminders Scheduling Engine.

- Works with mobile screen locked or OFF

- Notifications works no matter if the app is active or not.

Check much more Features & Screenshots for Reject++

[G1 General] UnkzDomain:
Install this http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsx/ and then reboot and use the Disk Utility in /Applications/Utilities/
[G1 General] juangil:
this will not format a ext2 partition, it only allows you to mount it, your best bet is to d/l GPARTED or of you have windows in parallels use Paragon Partition Manager... this will not work if your windows is in a bootcamp partition, the other option is to use a pc (sadly hu?)
[G1 General] skri11a:
If it helps, I actually used an ubuntu live cd and installed gparted while booted to the cd... of course, i had already made the sdcard fat32 in windows but gparted allowed me to resize and format the remainder in ext2.

I've used the ext2fsx tool to partition my SD card on my mac. I don't think I had any extra software installed, and I just used the Disk Utility...

I'm also having trouble creating a valid partition. I'm using gparted on an ubuntu live cd but the sdcard doesnt like being messed with.

What disklabel are you using? [Loop / msdos / bsd etc]?

I think i've tried every combination and haven't gotten anywhere.

Also, i've read that the card class makes a difference, is this right or does it only effect the speed of data transfer?

Any help would be much appreciated!! :)

I had this once, and found an extra key under this registry entry:

Normal operation would have keys numbered 0 through 17. I had an extra one numbered 100, but yours might be some other number. You can delete the extra key (just don't delete any of those from 0 to 17). Slide off the programs tab and back to it, and I think it should disappear.
