With the Xion 2.2 I felt like the reception were weaker than with the 2.1. Was that just my subjective feeling, or were there different radio versions?

Is the radio version in Xion X1 different from the 2.2?

And as allways, I love your work!

when I install Spb Wireless Monitor (latest ver) TF3D won't launch any more.

Even an uninstall won't help. Reflash is the only way. Bug @ Xion or bug @ Spb?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] smaberg:
well it's well known that touchflo and spb don't work well together. so it would seem likely that its not my rom that causes this.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] d12bn:
OK can someone tell me the benefits to changing to a custom ROM. Is it really worth the effort?

Thanks for your time and advice
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] band27:
Even when HTC upgrades there ROM's, they still don't compare to a cooked ROM. No, not all cooked ROM's are made equally but the generally benefits are as follows:

• Speed (have been proven to be faster)

• Customizable OS (can change basically everything from visual, functionality, programs within the OS etc.)

• Radio's (the ability to change your Radio's (GPRS, GPS, GSM, Bluetooth, Wifi) This allows for potentially finding the best reception with the most efficient battery life.

Once you have read enough, you begin to believe. But once you begin to flash, you no longer begin, you've become. What that simple means, is that yes, it's worth it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] caudex:
above post is totally true.

Imagine your Diamond is a new computer from Dell, HP or something. You will never use the original OS that comes with it, since it is bloated etc. You will always install a clean OS.

Same thing with cooked roms, this is the clean OS. You will get a OS which is customized and tweeked to give maximum performance. Although cooked roms arent all made the same, however look around, most of them will perform better than HTC Original Roms

There was a post on here at some point from someone needing a new glass screen for their HD.

Since I'm not sure if it's against the rules, I won't put a link on this forum but I will say it was on ebay.

There was a glass screen replacement and some other brand new replacement hard parts.

Anyway, hope that helps.

Hello everyone, I'm new to xda-developers!

I have a T-Mobile Dash with WM6 [Standard] Official. I would like to know before downloading WM6.1 Final by Kavana if there is an update or a mod that will make Myfaves and Hotspot work with the Kavana. I use Myfav's and I was informed that it will not be usable with Kavana.

I also have read many posts on how to upgrade but all of them aren't all in order. So I was wondering if someone can help me by posting the exact procedures on upgrading to the WM 6.1 Final by Kavana in the order of procedures it needs to be done. I'd hate to mess up!

Hi guys. Just upgraded from an original Touch to a Diamond. Before I start setting it up, I went to HTC's site to get the latest updates.

I love cusotmizing my device with themes, pic etc, but I am not into flashing cooked roms (yet).

HTC has 2 rom upgrades on their site. One from like July last year and one from Jan of this year.

When I enter my S/N it says my device does not support this rom???

I have a Diamond P3700

The current rom is Rom Base 1.93.422.4 Dated July 18th 2008

Radio 1.09.25.23

Am, I missing something? Was the January 09 update not for some Diamonds?

I know when you flash its like a hard reset, so I want to have the latest official rom on my device before I start putting in all my info.

Anyone have this issue???

thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Nightcookie:
Mike,

if you got your device from a mobile operator or have a "branded" phone (T-Mobile, Vodafone, Verizon, Orange, whatever), you'll probably have no access to updates from the HTC website. Operators make some changes to the ROM (themes, settings, applications) so they reserve the right to select which updates they make available to their customers. (Booooo.)

In that case, the only thing you can do is ask your operator (visit their website) if there are any updates available.

You'll have unrestricted access to HTC's updates only if you have a "free" device.

N.

FYI : Bell is currently working on a ROM version with HTC guys. It should be out somewhere during this year. (I hope so, because the ROM Bell gives is really retarded)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] SayKyo:
I have a unbranded unlocked phone and have the same problem. Support replied that the 2.03 ROM is not yet available for Eastern Europe phones (my case by the looks of it). No info on release date for us though.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] angler:
There is a new Touch Diamond ROM posting in HTC website here:

You may input your serial number to see whether this new ROM suitable for your device or not.

upgrading ROM

my experience with upgarding via HTC website.

i have a HTC Artemis + HTC Touch Diamond, both came with English WM OS.

Bought both in mainland China though they both imported, Artemis via Taiwan, and Touch Diamond via HK.

when i tried to obtain latest ROM via HTC HK website last week of Feb 2009, basically i could only download the RUU 2.03 CHT_CHS ROM. i was not allowed to download the English language version of the ROM. Here's HTC explanation.

The two phones were shipped via the original HTC agents in both countries with HTC CHT (Traditional Chinese) ROM's. Even though i bought both phones in mainland China with English ROM's. (Obviously the store or a supplier on the mainland had flashed the English HK ROM's).

Basically HTC's view is that flashing the ROM's with any other ROM outside what it shipped with OEM voids the warranty (if one is not careful, one can also brick the phone too!) LOL

Interestingly this means that my new phones were void of warranty initially anyway the day i bought them, since i bought them from the dealer with English version ROM (official HK English ROM), though both phones were meant to be CHT ROM's. If i sent either phone back to their respective HTC service depts. artemis to Taiwan or Touch Diamond to HK, i would have been out of luck claiming warranty!

(anyway i got my hands on the official HK/Taiwan English ROM's and flashed my phones myself... HTC have been a fat lot of use over any technical support issues i have contacted them about in the past).

Note that not all ROM's are the same, service providers and manufacturers can decide what is and what isn't included in their respective ROM, which consequently locks the phone to that ROM and any future updates. Even though one may think they are buying an unlocked phone, with no restrictions etc. how certain can you be of how it was shipped ex-factory, or the route that the phone took before arriving in store?

OP, it sounds to me as though you have a phone that had been altered somehow before you bought it, and is not supported for the upgrade ROM you want. The same situation that applies in my case.

One way to check is try downloading all the different ROM's there are on all the different HTC region/country websites using your serial number... sooner or later you will find the right ROM even you may not want it, but at least you will know the status of how your phone was setup ex factory... because if the ROM was changed somewhere between ex-factory and the store without HTC's okay then your phone is void of warranty (unless you flash it back to OEM). ;)

;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] vale|46:
sinned69 is right, you can't just go to any HTC site and download a ROM, your serial number matches a certain region and you must go to that HTC region site, from there you will be able to download the ROM. Where (which country) did you buy the phone, or do you know where it came from? If you know this information, then just go to that HTC region site.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] kosherpig:
By the end of January, I called HTC hotline. They said they'll upload East EU version next week. It's March and I can't download anything. How do you think, isn't it time to remind HTC has to release a East EU rom?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] miked112007:
No luck-

I tried downloading the newest HTC update from Feb 09-- still says your device is not supported.

I downloaded the file using a provided serial in another thread for the WWE version.

Can I use this file to flash my rom????

My diamond is an UNBRANDED and UNLOCKED version.

It's a 1.93.422.4 WWE currently...

Any idea if this will work ok for me?????
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] basilrsa:
HTC Diamond in South Africa

Although I am a member of the HTC europe club, I do not have access to the 2.03 Jan release ROM at this stage.

The reason for this is that the SA agents have still not had the ROM approved by our Network Operators, so the HTC Club site continues to post the old Rom.

Once the approval is given, HTC will post the new ROM for us to upgrade.

HTC uses the serial numbers to control who gets what ROM upgrades.

Our phones are HTC branded and not network locked. It is illegal for networks to lock phones in SA.

Ok peeps.

I am off to London for a day out with my girls doing the sites, museums and the like.

My question is, is there a decent tube planner / street map free software out there to use to help our day?

Anyone have any suggestions.

I dont particularly wanna pay for anything as I am in london once in every 5 or 6 years....

Many thanks

Neil
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] insectskin:
there´s an app called metro.

I was in the same situation somedays ago. I´ve been to London in the past week, and believe me that if you use the little map (paper) they have there in the station its pretty easy to use the tube there.

They have lots of infos in the stations. You just need to see where you wanna go, and check the map if the tube goes there. And once in the station, search the line you have to catch and last, each platform shows where to go (direction).

But its better someone that live there tell you more.

I personally think its pretty easy to use.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Cheesy Dave:
A good commercial (not free) one is: http://www.visualit.co.uk/ - I use it.

The Metro program is free and excellent but not very visual: http://www.nanika.net/Metro/

One thing I tried was to download a copy of the tube map and then view it in the album.

enjoy the trip !
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bbonzz:
there's also City Advisor here on XDA, still under development but really promising
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dubh Llas:
I also use Metro, have used it for business and for Holiday trips etc. (used it in Barcelona on holiday last year)

Cheesy Dave is right in that it is not very visual but for a free route planner that takes in the tube and mainline trains in the city it is brilliant.

For just about anything else I use googlemaps.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] andrewmpalmer2003:
google

silly but why not use google maps with the Sat Nav operational and download a map of the undergroup to nav your way on the tube.

Or is that too easy. Maybe thats just me, but I do know London very well by tube and road.

I "tested" the Visual it Tube2 application and it did not convince me to buy it. The path tool suddenly stopped working and even while it was It had very poor graphic to be useful, was really not easy to read/use. In my opinion you'd better stick with a london map :)

@Rathis

I'll be in London near camden town from 14th march, if you happen to see a mad italian trying to get a satellite fix with a touch HD in the tube you'll probably be watching me.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] kwbr:
London Tube

You can download the official map here. Trust me, the best thing is to get the map when you arrive. You can get them for free very easy at every tubestation (also at Heathrow express and connect). No hasle with your phone :) Besides that it is quite easy to travel around with the tube. There are 3 major connections (circle, district and central) they can bring you nearly anywhere within walking distance. In every cabin there is a good overview/map of all the lines.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Riceburner:
one other thing to remember is that most shops or places are very aware of which is the nearest tube station, and often the ads for such plsces will have that info clearly shown.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rathis:
You can also try the "Visitor Guide" from 3lobyte.nl it's look like something that you want.

[G1 Android Development] obijohn:
Everyone tethering (especially when stuck with Edge as I often am) should seriously check out Opera 10 for their desktop browser. It has a new "turbo" mode which uses server-side compression and this speeds up page loading by a huge amount. Basically, the page data is compressed on their end so the amount of data transferred is much smaller, which means it will load faster on slower connections. This isn't enabled by default, you have to turn it on.

Saw it on slashdot yesterday and I've really noticed a speedup in page loading time.
