Not sure if anyone is following this now, anyway pocketchield works great. its made my life so much easier, no problem of random unlocking and ghost calls anymore!
[Touch GSM General] TAhsifter88:
I first off would like to start off by saying I'm in the market of getting a new cell phone, and am really interested in the touches. I'm a college student, so I really can't afford TOO much, but am just wanting some good bang for my buck, and I feel the touches are just what I'm looking for.

However, I really don't have much of a clue which I'm wanting to get. First off, my carrier is GSM (T-mobile). My concern is the number of applications or ROMs that the various touches have. For example, do roms and apps that are meant for the elf work on the Opal? I'm wanting something like the touch, but a bit faster, as I've heard many complain that the elf is a bit slow. Also, is the Opal considered the "Touch Enhanced"? There are WAY too many nicknames, and they are all very confusing for me.

Simply put, I'm trying to find a touch that can at least play youtube movies at good frame rates (from wi-fi), and run most apps or roms well. However, I don't want to buy a model of touch and realize that there are no real mods for it to "pimp" it out. I have looked around on the search, but I feel these questions are a bit too "common sense" to be easily found anywhere.

Lastly, I'm not interested in a data plan, as I'm mainly wanting to use it as a PDA (don't need push-email or internet everywhere I go). Frankly, I live in a city dominated w/ wifi, and will be covered by that everywhere I go. Without a data plan, what apps or features will I be missing out on?

I really appreciate ANY help. Thanks for everything!

Please read WIKI's for information on each device

ELF - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elf

Elfin - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elfin

Vogue - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Vogue

OPAL - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Opal

JADE or Touch 3G - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Jade

To answer your other question - most apps and programs can work with any windows mobile device - Most programs will say whether they are Windows 5 only or 6 only or 6.1 only if so. Also screen resolution is a factor for some programs vga - qvga etc..

ROM upgrading is device specific - do not put a ROM intended for Opal on a ELFIN or a ROM for Elfin on a Vogue etc....... Despite there similarities, there are differences and they are different devices.
[Touch GSM General] TAhsifter88:
Thank for the response!

I've taken a look over those wikis, and they helped quite a bit. However, I'm a bit lost with the elfin. In concerns of updating ROMs, is it the same as the Elf? There is no board for the Elfin, and there's not much data about the Elfin. I understand the main difference is the increase in RAM, as well as the jump from wm6.0 to 6.1, but I've also heard that the elf is compatible with 6.1. Would elf roms work just fine w/ elfin? I know that's not the case /w most others, but it just seems to me that the site combined the two.

Lastly, I can imagine the best place to find a list of roms is on the boards dedicated for that specific phone. Are there any major apps or features that won't function if I am not on a data plan? I tried searching, but it seems the majority have plans, and the few that do not don't mention the downfalls. I understand there is no push-emailing or no internet everywhere, but do some apps flat out not work at all w/o a data plan? Will the apps that require internet work over wifi? I know blackberry is STRICT with what they limit you on, and I was wondering if it's the same case here?

Thanks again for the reply!
[Touch GSM General] hotrod101:
Actually, my elfin only came with Windows 6.0 not 6.1. With regard to Rom's I havn't upgraded mine ever, so I can't tell you much about it but that there are some WM 6.1 custom Roms available for the Elfin in these forums. Most are linked to the Elf forum and Elfin Rom's I have found in Elf ROM threads with Elfin ROM Links. I don't have a data plan with mine - Use only WIFI as there are tons of open WIFI networks in my area. I havn't yet found any apps that dont work over WIFI instead of using data plan but I havn't tried every single app out there yet. Most apps that require internet will work over WIFI though. I check my email, surf the web, use various weather apps, listen to internet radio and Sirius radio online and even use google maps etc... all work great over WIFI. I live in Canada so (rediculous data plans here) so do not have a data plan for that reason. Would love an unlimited data plan to be able to listen internet radio anywhere I go.

[XPERIA X1 General] THE GRIZZ:
sorry to ask such basic questions but im having truble locating the answers:

1-can someone explain why the cooked or stock roms (os or radio) work fine with both x1i and xia. they have differnt hardware after all (different radio frequency support, different cameras with different video recording capability)

also

2- how come the radio rom is the same while US and europian use different frequencies . and doent the cooked OS rom need to be aware of what frequency the phone is using

3-if i flash a cooked rom that is based on the US ROM do i lose the capability of recording 30FPS ? is the opposite true also?

4- if cross flashing (cooked OS) works for x1 how how come it does not work with touch pro or diamond (meaning that i cant flash htc touchPRO with a ATT FUSE?
[XPERIA X1 General] artesea:
Because the software is built to handle both sets of hardware.
[XPERIA X1 General] fhsieh:
There is nothing fundamentally different between the X1a and X1i. The only significant differences are the different radio chip and different Qualcomm CPU, but the OS itself does not need to be changed for those differences. When you flash a ROM, you are only flashing the OS; the radio component is not flashed. Slower video recording in the X1a is just a limit of the MSM7201A chip, again not controlled by the OS.

That should answer questions 1-3.

As for Touch Pro vs Fuze, you can actually flash a Touch Pro ROM onto a Fuze and vice-versa, but the Fuze does have some fundamental differences, such as an extra PTT button, a special AT&T keyboard, and no front camera -- all of which are controlled by the OS. As a result, "cross-flashing" ROMs may have unexpected results. Some Raphael chefs now offer two versions, Touch Pro and Fuze, which are essentially the same minus a few changes for those specific hardware differences. Fuze versions may also include original AT&T branding.

"Cross-flashing" is fully not possible between GSM/UMTS and CDMA phones (eg: between Fuze and Sprint Touch Pro).
[XPERIA X1 General] DavidMc0:
This is not strictly on topic (though it is related), but would it be possible to come up with a process to port roms cooked for the Touch HD over to the X1 by updating the parts that would be affected by hardware differences?

I guess as all roms are different that this would not be easy, but if it were possible it'd open up more choices for users. Might it be feasible, or no chance?
[XPERIA X1 General] fards:
You can port the XIP (core os) across and various bits of the operating system, but it can get messy. T

here's no simple way to "port" roms from one device to another.

Have a look at Itjes roms for examples
[XPERIA X1 General] ratchetnclank:
Is X1a us or uk?
[XPERIA X1 General] gtrab:
X1a is not US nor UK

X1a = "america" (US, Canada, Mexico, Purto Rico, Chile, Argetina, Boliiva, etc etc etc)
[XPERIA X1 General] THE GRIZZ:
thanks people very educational

its funny that the x1i to me seems (hardware wise) to have more in common with the HD than the x1a. since both use the same radio and cpu
[XPERIA X1 General] fhsieh:
Right up until you get to the slide-action of the HD... oh wait. :p

Hello everybody

Since I flushed the ROM of my Raphael with TiR V 10 some installations fail (that worked in first place, before flushing TiR v10) with the message:

Installation of xxx.cab was unsuccessful. The installation file is not intended for this device.

I came across this error when attempting to install: MinimoCE_0.016, Bejeweled2, Mind Sweeper etc.

So I was wondering, if this is just a registry key that causes these installs to fail.

Any clue where and what i'd need to modify to get these installsworking again?

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] tomal:
Ummm it's definately a crazy idea. We were discussing with mamaich (our guru) last year. Unfortunately it's not that simple to provide the power in sync connector, which is acting as a usb client (connector) at the moment.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] the_fish:
did you read in the thread i posted a link to? they had the same problem, but also found out that it maybe is possible to provide the nessecary +5v too, they were not sure tho, and i thought maybe zenos drivers contain the code to do that.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] tomal:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] enigma1nz:
hmmm....am I right or am I wrong?

Theoretically speaking the idea with a pin is supposed to redirect power from intake to output, however, not only Uni is incapable of supporting the output (you are essentially attempting to piggyback another device), the external support will not be possible due to pin configuration, regardless of the cable used.

Another thing, other than sheer experimentation, what would be the real point of such USB host?

STOP TORTURING YOUR UNIs, GUYS!!!! :p
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] domi007:
I am pretty sure, that the Universal doesn't support USB Host.

It did not, it does not, it will not.

Sorry guys!

To be honest:

Yes, the PXA270 chip supports USB Host, but in most HTC devices they use this feature already for something else, like: WLAN or 3G connection.

do you know what USB Host already busy? :D

it used as data call transfer radio <-> CE.

USB hub will not solve this problem easy.

also if you want attach it to miniUSB connector, you need additional OTG chip.

=> Host on universal is very hard to do, ...impossible.

Hello, and thanks all for the great work you are doing.

I have some questions (n00b here, be gentle) :)

I have finally (after 2 hours), RC33 126986 v1.41 and root access. Mainly, I was getting some "verification failed".

Is it normal to scroll all the info while is booting (white letters scrolling really fast), before going into recovery mode?

Also, do I really need RC33 v1.42? I tried 10 times to install it and I keep getting that the file failed verification. File was downloaded from several sites (just in case), also renamed several times to update.zip (just in case). I updated the radio and it was fine.

So, since I can't do it, and if I don't need it, "F" it? :D

Thanks and again, great work JF and all.

These things generally come as CAB files. You only need to transfer the cab file to your phone via usb then use the File explorer and click on the cab file in the phone to install. If it's not working ok you just uninstall the app from the phone :)

Special phone mods however might require you to transfer files manually to the phone or edit the registry file or some such. I would advice not to use such mods yet until you are familiar with your phone and how to restore it should something go wrong.

Just read around here on the forums, there are guides to everything if you just look around.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] aE3-ink:
.CAB files

.cab files are files used to install programs

.cab files are similar to what you might know as .exe files from your PC

.cab files can be downloaded directly to your Diamond with Wifi or GPRS, you can also transfer them to your Diamond using File Explorer on your PC

.cab files are not supposed to be unpacked/unzipped on the PC. Copy the intact .cab file as you downloaded it directly to your Hermes

Connect your Diamond to computer via USB cable

Make sure it's connected via ActiveSync

Open File Explorer

Navigate to where your .cab file is stored on the PC

Right click on the .cab file

Chose Copy

Navigate to your device in File Explorer

Navigate to where you want to store it on your device, e.g. \Internal Storage

Now disconnect your Diamond from the USB cable

Click Start -> Programs -> File Explorer

Click 1 -> 2 -> 3 according to the image, if you saved it on the Storage Card

Locate your .cab file and click on it

Installation will start, follow onscreen messages if any

be warned on some Devices (is a Reg setting) the Cab is deleted after Install not necessary if the install was successfull or not!!

This information is in the Diamond_For_Beginners article which can be found in the XDA-Wiki which is on the top menu.

Hope that helps.

Example: in an SMS I skip blanks after punctuation marks. Yesterday I wrote "sleep.Are" (with T9). Today I typed "sle" and "sleep.Are" was included in the proposal list.

Is there a way to disable this caching feature? I don't need it and think it's only a memory hog.
