Which phones out now run Windows Mobile and have dual processors? I saw one like 8 months ago, back in early 2008 that had dual PXA270 520mhz processors, which sounded pretty cool...any more development since then?

thanks,

*bump*

anyone?
[General Questions and Answers] stephj:
The TI OMAP850 (Wizard) already has two cores in it, an ARM9 and an ARM7 core.

http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/wt...lateId=6123&navigationId=12000&contentId=4679

But here's the catch, you can't get at the second one. It is driving the GSM/GPRS part of the phone and can only be accessed from the main core running WM via the RIL (Radio interface Layer API). You cannot reach it or change the code it is running. The original XDA had two separate ARM chips, again one for PPC and one for the phone.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
You should install this using the internal method.

Just grab the .nbh file and rename it DIAMIMG.nbh

Put this in your Internal 4GB storage.

Soft reset your device and immediately press the Vol. Down and back button and a grey screen will appear. Vol up to install. After, don't forget to hard reset your phone.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] robsterr:
hey you

thanks for your quick answer

but it isn't working if i soft reset the device and press vol down and back (the arrow which is pinting to left) it doesn't open a menu!

do i need a special hard spl? or do i something wrong on the reset?

i just don't get te screen, it's just starting normally :(

really strange!

thanks in advance
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
No, a special hard spl is not required. Any one will do. You are probably not doing the procedure quick enough. Try again.

When you soft reset get your hands immediately ready to press both (Vol. Down + Back Arrow Button). HOLD this until you see the grey menu and follow the instructions.

And make sure the DIAMIMG.nbh file is in your Internal Storage (4GB)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] scottwilkins:
On my phone, the vol-down + back-button doesn't work either. It just resets the phone as normal. A vol-down + enter-button does move it to the hard-reset screen though, then an up-arrow finishes the hard reset, but not loading the DIAMIMG.nbh file. Maybe they removed the vol-down + back-button? Or changed it somehow?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] razorbud:
Make sure that your internal storage is FAT32, It wont work if it is anything else
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] LandyMan:
When you get to the grey screen, it tells you to Press the power button to update
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] scottwilkins:
Yep, fat32...

Doesn't work, and the text is not there either. :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TheCuriousOne:
I also think it's important to change the name .nbh before you transfer it to your phone, at least it was for me!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] scottwilkins:
Well, I figured out one mystery. For my model version, it's not vol-down + back-arrow to get into the SPL screen on power up. It's vol-down only while powering on the device. Go figure!

Still stuck with no ability to install Hard SPL though :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
ALL MODELS SHOULD BE THE SAME>>

Basic Info.

(Soft Reset and press Vol. Down) = Get To Bootloader

(Soft Reset and Press Vol. Down + back-arrow) = To Install Radio or ROM form Internal Storage (must have DIAMIMG.nbh in first before flashing)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] widemouth31:
To confirm that there is no confusion. The "Back arrow" button is the one above the hang up button. NOT left of the middle circle button

So press volume down, Back arrow and then with your third hand, press the reset button with the stylus. Continue to hold the Vol Down and Back Arrow until the image install screen appears. (about 2 seconds)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] scottwilkins:
Sorry guys, no the back-arrow button plus Vol-down does not work. Vol-down alone does. The new phones are different, I'm almost 100% positive they are. The stock SPL was version 1.95 which I've not yet seen here. And, I can't seem to dump any of the ROM (and now can't dump the SPL, BUMMER!, but that's another issue...)

But vol-down + enter + reset does give the clear memory option, with a slightly different wording on the reset screen that what I've read here that it should be.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
Well so far your device seems to be the first out of the gate that reacts this way.

Sorry to hear!

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Hajima Ichiro:
I'm really sorry if this has been covered before, but I did search via Google and couldn't find anything.

Basically, I've disabled TF3D, and I use Pocket Player for my music (in spite of the skipping sound), so I don't need HTC Audio Manager. Normally, I'd just leave it alone, but I found out that the weirdness I was experiencing w/ Pocket Player (real laggy, freezes)was caused by HTC AM. I'm assuming because it's trying to generate a database/extract all the album art from the 10gigs of music on my phone. I can kill the process w/ Task Manager, but it comes back whenever I start playing Pocket Player. Is there any way to disable it for good? It's a pain to always have to kill the process before I listen to any music. And if possible, I'd like something reversible.

I'm running the stock ATT ROM on my Fuze.

Thanks in advance!
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
I'm starting to lose the will to live at the moment as i've got a bit of an issue with using my phone on the o2 network at the moment.

I'd be really grateful, therefore, if the folks with a Touch HD on O2 could do a quick test for me to see if it is just a handset problem or an O2 issue. The full story is outlined below, but you don't have to read it and can skip straight to the test at the end if you want!

My phone worked fine for 2 weeks and hasn't worked since there was a local network outage on o2 on Thursday of last week. After this, the phone will only work when i'm in a 3G enabled area and won't work when i'm in a 2G area (a bit of a pain as i live in a 2G area).

I've been trying to track this issue down.

Here are the tests that i've done so far

An old but still active o2 account works fine in k750 (2g only phone) at home location

Sim card from old O2 account doesn't work in touch HD at home location

New sim card hasn't worked in home location (2G area) since last Thursday

New sim card seems to work elsewhere in 3G locations (although some dropped calls)

If you put phone in GSM only mode when you are in a 3G area you get a signal but can't make or receive any calls

new sim card works in k750 (2G only phone) at home location

Sim card from wife's orange phone works fine at home location (although it is an orange 3g area).

Conclusions

1) Phone is broken

2) O2 local transmitter is broken or no longer will 'speak' to the touch HD since the network outage on Thursday

However, i've come across other people on the O2 network with the same phone (see http://forum.o2.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=15778&start=30) in another part of the country and they are having the same issue, so this has got me thinking of 1 final test before I return my phone.

*************

The test bit starts here

*************

If you are in a 3G area can you switch your phone band to GSM only. After doing so can you still make and receive calls/texts?

If you are in a 2G area can you make and receive calls/texts?

Really appreciate any help you can offer here guys, as this is taking over my life at the moment.

[Touch HD General] vijay555:
I've got an Orange Touch HD, unlocked by "Unlock Now", and being used with a 3G o2 contract sim.

Switching to GSM leaves the phone entirely operational, and is generally advised anyway to save battery from band switching in marginal signal areas.

I can't test the 2g only problem as I am swamped by 3g where I live.

I very much expect that the phone WILL work in a 2g area as it has to have the 2g fallback if 3g fails.

[Touch HD General] fishes234:
I live in a 3G area and work in a 2G area and my phone works just fine in both, albeit the slow downloads you would expect in 2G. I'm on O2 with an HD that I bought independently of the contract.
[Touch HD General] shuflie:
Mine works just fine in non 3G areas on O2 with a recent O2 SIM, can even go from 3G to 2G and back again mid call without any problems. Haven't tried switching 3G off (bit late to be calling anyone tonight) but don't see any reason for it to fail. Have you tried a hard reset?
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
Thanks guys, really appreciate your input.

I've done all the hard resets and everything and the situation remains the same, the phone will work in 3G areas but not 2G ones, so it will be returned and hopefully the replacement phone will be okay
[Touch HD General] murph1:
I live in an area where i'm just on the edge of 3g reception and for the last couple of weeks or so I have been getting calls dropped whenever my phone switches from 3G. I can sometimes get a few seconds of talk time before it drops but if I switch to GSM instead of auto I can't connect at all.

I've had this HD on O2 since December, from mobiles.co.uk, and have only recently started experiencing this problem.
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
My replacement phone has arrived and now works as it should.

Murph1 - seems like your phone has developed the same fault as mine, so it will need to go back to HTC or get it fixed via CPW

HD TOUCH very dissapointing....any results after repair anyone?

i can tell you that i have purchased a hd touch (around a month ago) and to be honest im not impressed at all….no matter where i am i do not get full signal, i was told that this may be the lack of 3g in my area, so i took it to carphone warehouse, they changed a setting…..and i still have no signal……….i have around 20 photos and 10 songs on the memory card, and already the phone is “lagging” and glitching……….the battery life is pants, it has to be charged every night……also when starting the phone its takes at least 3-4 mins until i can touch a key and the hd touch will recognise it! really is rubbish, so much that ive returned it today for repair, hopefully it will be sorted, but i cant see how they can make the battery life longer, the software faster and the signal better???? my advice is get an iphone (the exact comment i got off of a carphone warehouse employee when i took it in for repair today) but ofcourse apparntly i cant do that as im outside of my 28 day return period….hope this helps,

joe.....oh im on o2 aswell : ( my postcode is s81 (worksop, notts area)
[Touch HD General] nhudgell:
Same problem - PLEASE HELP!?

I have a Touch HD on O2 - through Mobiles.co.uk.

It was working fine originally for 2 weeks - then suddenly I have very low "H" reception in my house (my old phone shows loads of reception with same sim card). If it switches to E or G receptions - even if I have loads of reception, I can't sent a text or call, or receive calls. I've even sat there at work, with 4 or 5 bands on E, and then tried to call myself from my work phone - it goes straight to voicemail.

So it seems that my phone will only work on "H" band/reception. Is this the same problem? I have tried contacting HTC support and hard resets..

Please can someone help?!

Thanks!!!
[Touch HD General] nhudgell:
Does anyone have any idea? Please!! It's doing my head in!
[Touch HD General] standish:
When I first received the phone I found it to be laggy and not very responsive.

I am currently using Dutty's Extreme 2.6 ROM and Radio 1.13.25.24 and the phone runs like a dream.

The device is very fast and responsive. The reception is very good and the GPS fixes in about 10-15 secs. The best thing is that I used the phone for 5 days without charging and it still had 20% charge left at the end (i did not use TomTom in this period).

I am in the UK and I am on the O2 network.

Hope this helps.

The 5 days test came from Dutty's Extreme 2.5 ROM not 2.6.
[Touch HD General] nhudgell:
So how does a radio really work? I think mine is actually faulty though, as it won't connect via E or G bands. Did you have this problem before you upgraded the radio and rom?
[Touch HD General] spud_work:
nhudgell, your error seems the same as mine. I would be able to make/receive calls in a 3G/H area, but it would go straight to voicemail in a E/G area.

If you are within 28 days of your purchase, return it for a replacement, if not, you'll have to go to a carphonewarehouse to send it off for repair.

P.S. i updated my radio on the phone that had the error and it made no difference at all, so i assume that it was a faulty GSM module in the phone
[Touch HD General] nhudgell:
Sounds like I need to return it then (I'm over 28 days) - so I need to go to Carphone Warehouse? Can I not go straight to HTC and use their warranty?
[Touch HD General] simonwinkler:
Another one to get unlucky

Hi all

I have a touch HD which I bought off ebay(oh dear I hear you cry !). I love the phone, but like you had the 2g 3g prob. On 2g I can make calls (if I try and try again and am patient with the long connect time )but cannot receive calls they go straight to answerphone.

I found that with a virgin sim(I had an old one that still works) the prob vanishes and phone works fine in 2g or 3g.

But with any O2 card: mine or a new sim I got(to try and fix this) and my wifes I get the same prob.

Did your phone replacement solve the prob.

I spoke to O2 and they think its a software vs phone software issue, and said that they dont sell/support that handset and I checked its not on their website.

Did the replacement phones solve the issue is all now OK??

Any feed back gratefully received !

Simon
[Touch HD General] simonwinkler:
The Story continues....

OK here is the latest.

I spoke to Spud_work & Nhudgell who had this prob and they both confirmed that

A) They had replaced the handset

B) Problem had gone and so far had not come back.

(thanks very much for the prompt response and help guys)

So I called HTC and told them this - I found someone that was interested.

He said that he will look into what the repair people say and then I can update on here.

Just keeping fingers crossed that they CAN fox this as they did for others !
[Touch HD General] simonwinkler:
Final Update

Spoke to HTC and they agreed to fix. This required me explaining about the postings on here and what other people had done. I sent the phone back and it was back with me within one week the prob was fixed. I believe that they changed the main-board. They said that they had never heard of this prob, but I pointed them here !

Anyway if anyone else gets this same prob - send the phone back ! That worked for me !:)

Having said all that I now have a new and even more unusual prob - with the back light - looks like the phone might be going "home" again !

Thats the way to do it!!!!:D

Curiosity, what apps do you have installed for keyboard, file exporer etc?
[Touch HD General] farkah:
I use the stylus to write quite a bit as the recognition is much faster than I can input using fingerkeyboard2 etc. For serious remote terminal, i use my bluetooth folding keyboard but that doesn't get much use. The stylus was the winning feature for me, something else over the iphone and others. I also use remote desktops and having a pointer is priceless.

For the most part though, i'll admit i never use the stylus with day to day messaging, phone calling etc ... but is sooo handy to have.
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Wezternator:
Hi, I dont believe this has been posted before (I sent 3 hours looking around the web now!)

I have an Orange HTC Touch Dual and want to Manilla on it using a new ROM (Is it called LILLY?)

But I can't update my Radio ROM - I can't find an update for this that is high enough, Does anyone know how to update this? (Can't do it on HTC site)

If I put a new ROM on it will I lose Windows Mobile? or will it reinstall when I turn my phone on? and will it still be usable on Orange?

If anyone has some spare time could you gather some links to get the stuff i would need to perform what I want to do(I'm sure lots of other people are confused about this too), and maybe put together a small how-to guide.

I have been reading bits and peices from all over the web, but I can't make sence of it (one thing leads to another then I need this to alow that to work, but this needs to updated for that too do that etc etc.)

My device information:

Operator Version: 25.131.1.6110

Radio Version 1.58.16.27

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
If the phomne is locked to Orange, then you will not be able to use any other ROMs apart from those from Orange. To get around this, you will need to unlock it first. Have a look and read in the CID unlock thread.

Once unlocked, the phone can be updated to any ROM and radio combination of your choice.

The official HTC WWE WM6.1 ROMs all have new SPL (bootloader) version 1.22 and radios (1.65.29.22 or 1.65.28.25) built in.

Have a look at the Hard SPL thread about the bootloader.

Do have a read about problems others may have encountered - go to the thread, and search within the thread for Orange.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] scousemartin:
it would be help for others to help you if you state what rom you have loaded original or cooked. If you have installed hardspl and then downloaded a cooked rom from here or somewhere else then you might have advanced networking selected in the rom to switch it off and allow active sync to recognise it simply click start > settings > connections > usb to pc and untick it.

If its an original rom then you will have to state what it is that you have installed also state what software you have loaded on to it ,as some software to play silly buggers with active sync
