But that's only available on a few cooked ROMs, not on stock ones, and that feature on those that have it usually doesn't work on the Kaiser... The best thing is just to search for the numerous threads about mass storage, lots of infos and hacks there to try as they will work or not depending on the combination of actual phone hardware and ROM version. But the easy, albeit payware solution is CardExport.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] samgt13:
Yea that is right. the first rom I had was able to do mass storage, all the rest either didn't have it or i didn't work. i just use a memory card reader if i want to listen to music from my SD card.

Hi there,

unfortunately I dropped my Toch HD last weekend on rough ground, the housing ist completely scratched at the corners and looks awful. The lucky part is that technically it still works perfectly and the display/screen is not damaged.

So, I'd like to replace the housing and I've already found some replacement parts on the net (e.g. here for USD 80... i know, quite expensive but for me it's worth it, cheaper offers always welcome though).

The real problem is that I couldn't find any instructions to do it and no hints whether any special tools are necessary. The forum search only delivered rare information. With a proper instruction I would dare to do it myself, but without I'm afraid to damage the device.

So has anybody got a detailed instruction or experience changing the housing?

would be grat,

thanks in advance,

regards jan
[Touch HD General] tkolev:
Isn't this what you are looking for?

http://htcdriver.com/index.php?page=htc-blackstone-touch-hd-service-manual

And congratulations for not damaging the screen, because this is what happened to me (see the attachment), and amazingly everything works :eek:.
[Touch HD General] hausen:
Thank You, exactly what I was looking for...

...however, it looks much more complicated than I expected... have to toke some time to analyze the instruction for which steps are necessary for changing the casing only without complete disassembly... not sure yet if I should dare it...

but, anyway, thank you again!

regards jan

P.S.1: has anybody tried it yet and have some experience to share?

P.S.2: I'm not sure about the "plastic stick" shown in the disassembly part... whether it's really just a flat and bit flexible plastic stick or if itr has any special tip...
[Touch HD General] geower:
try, it's easy

I did it on a P3600 and it was not so difficult, just take your time (at least one hour).

Read everything carrefully before starting, prepare tools and clean your hands :)
[Touch HD General] gellofish:
I also dropped my touch hd and dented the front bezel. I have bought a complete replacement housing and tools required for only £25 on ebay.

I have read the service manual and it doesn't deal with removing the lcd screen from the bezel. I read somewhere that it is a complete unit and you can't detach it easily:(

The new case is still in its box until I can find more out. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
[Touch HD General] abubakar:
Yup it isn't as easy as it looks. The manual lacks details as it only tells you how and where but did not elaborate more on minor yet important details.

I bought an antenna cover from ebay to replace, and boy, removing the cover was not easy at all. I used to take apart my other phones all the time and HD is the most difficult one I've done. I ended up breaking the small plastic sockets (that clicks the cover firmly into place) of the original cover. Luckily I have a new one to fit back in. Originally I wanted to replace the whole housing myself but I stopped after the antenna cover until I get a video of how its done.

So anyone? Kindly? Any videos please? XD
[Touch HD General] superseagull:
still no videos out there?

not looking good for us as i still can't find any video tutorials out there so im assuming that its super hard to do :(

please can anyone assist?
[Touch HD General] abubakar:
lol i chickened out eventually. and im still using my not-so-perfect housing as im reluctant to change it myself while being too stingy to pay a pro to do it.
[Touch HD General] Eufeion:
Hay all,

I'm new to using an HTC "Have The Blackstone" I got the phone yesterday and love it.

But I have a few questions I cant find an answer too in the manual.

1. Can I changed the sound of the Alarm (Alarm Clock Sound)?

2. Can I change the Text Message recieve sound?

3. In contact if I copy the contacts from the SIM is there a way to only show the contacts

on the handset and not on both the SIM & Hadnset? (like on the Nokia Phones)

4. If I buy games from Handango.com will they work on my handset & how do I installl them, active sinc?

(UK Handset)

5. I've seen a Blackstone running Spore that was ment for a Diamond, I presume sofware for the Diamond is

compatable with the blackstone?

6. I know in some cases you need to go in to the windows folder, how do I get this up?

7.Is there any apps I should use?

Any help would be great

Thanks

:)
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Have you actually read the manual? Did you read the wiki? Did you search at all before posting this thread? Did you read the forum rules?

EDIT

As this is your first post so I've decided to help you this time only!!

1. Can I changed the sound of the Alarm (Alarm Clock Sound)? Yes, Go to Settings > Personal > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications > Event

2. Can I change the Text Message recieve sound? Yes, Go to Settings > Personal > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications > Event

3. In contact if I copy the contacts from the SIM is there a way to only show the contacts

on the handset and not on both the SIM & Hadnset? (like on the Nokia Phones) Yes, Can be done different ways. One way is through 3rd party apps like HDTweak (See attached file). Can be done other ways but depends on what rom your using

4. If I buy games from Handango.com will they work on my handset & how do I installl them, active sinc? Check compatibility before purchase and check apps thread in wiki. They can be installed either by activesync using .exe format or direct from phone using .cab, but you will most like need sync to get this onto phone first anyhow

5. I've seen a Blackstone running Spore that was ment for a Diamond, I presume sofware for the Diamond is compatable with the blackstone? Not all software between phones is compatible....CHECK FIRST!!

6. I know in some cases you need to go in to the windows folder, how do I get this up? Use file explorer which came preinstalled on phone. Its just like windows exlpoer on your pc. Windows folder is basically /windows similar to c:\windows on your pc. I've added 2 better file explorers for you to use (Total Commander & File Explorer 2)

7.Is there any apps I should use? Yes, again check wiki and apps recommended
[Touch HD General] xj650:
1. Can I changed the sound of the Alarm (Alarm Clock Sound)?

A: Yes, from the Home screen tap the clock and select the Alarms tab. Tap on the "Bell" icon, on the next screen you'll see a drop-down list of all the sounds you can play. If you copy a .wav to the Windows directory on your device it should also show up in the list.

2. Can I change the Text Message recieve sound?

A: Yes, From the Home screen tap Start > Settings. Tap Sounds and Notifications. Tap on the Notifications tab. From the Event Drop-Down list select Messaging: New text message. Select the sound you want to play. If you copy a .wav to the Windows\Rings directory on your device it should also show up in the list.

3. In contact if I copy the contacts from the SIM is there a way to only show the contacts

on the handset and not on both the SIM & Hadnset? (like on the Nokia Phones)

A: Not sure as I always keep all my contacts on the phone and none in the SIM.

4. If I buy games from Handango.com will they work on my handset & how do I installl them, active sinc?

(UK Handset)

A; Again not sure, I guess some games will probably install via ActiveSync as they will come as a windows .exe installer, others may come as a .cab, copy to your device storage card and run.

5. I've seen a Blackstone running Spore that was ment for a Diamond, I presume sofware for the Diamond is

compatable with the blackstone?

A: Check out the Software Wiki for working titles http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Software

6. I know in some cases you need to go in to the windows folder, how do I get this up?

A: From the Home screen tap Start > Programs. Tap File Explorer You should see the Windows directory in the list, if not try selecting My Device from the drop-down list at the top.

7.Is there any apps I should use?

A: There are lots of great apps for the Blackstone I personally use Gyrator (rotate the screen for most programs), Total Commander (File Explorer replacement) and Lumos (better backlight management), but there are literally hundreds. Try searching the Forum or looking through the 3 Sticky Forum threads for lots of great advice and tips.

i have no x7510, so that i cant look by myself.

can anybody help me?
[Advantage X7510 General] NeilM:
Mine is in HKLM/Software/HTC/StartupAnimationEngine which has 2 keys:

Default (value not set)

StartupAnimationEngine (String value: 1.0)
[Advantage X7510 General] xacsx:
thanks for helping.

it works, but there are 2 more registrykeys.

but you dont need this on x7510
[Advantage X7510 General] NeilM:
OK- do you need anything else from the X7510?
[Advantage X7510 General] xacsx:
the startupanimation works, but only in portrait-mode.

dont know why, i have made all registrysettings, have changed some dll's, but it doesnt work in landscape.

any ideas? maybe all registrykeys for the startupanimation?
[Advantage X7510 General] NeilM:
There are no more registry keys on the X7510 other than posted above.
[Advantage X7510 General] xacsx:
i have found a lot of threads, but it seems to be impossible, to make this working in portrait-mode.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] golightlygl:
The biggest problem I find in flashing ROMs is setting up my four email accounts, signatures etc. each time. Most other program installations I can cope with easily.

I'm sure these account details must be stored in an easily accessible registry key but I really can't figure out where.

Is there any easy way to backup these details (not the messages themselves, it's the settings I'm interested in) so that I can restore them easily when trying a new ROM?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Did you search? Did you try google?

Let me do that for ya

PIM Backup, SPB Backup, Sprite Backup, Resco Backup, Sashimi.......

SEARCH!!!!!!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] golightlygl:
Yes I did search. Yes I did google. I did research. and I am a responsible member of this community and respect a lot of what you and others (including myself) contribute to this forum.

I also read questions carefully before I reply. Had you done the same, you might have realised that the solutions you refer to do not do what I want. I am not interested in backing up the messages themselves but rather the settings of the accounts: servers, download schedules, logon names etc.

As you say:

Never ASSUME anything as it makes an ASS out of U and ME​

so perhaps you should be more careful before you flame. But thanks for taking the time to try and help.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Been one of those days were I seem to get constantly contacted by noobs or see posts by them all looking for basics. I'm always the first to admit it when I'm wrong, so my apologies.

In response to your query I also did a bit of searching, unfortunately with no solution.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] golightlygl:
Understandable - just didn't want you to confuse me with one of them! Thanks again for trying to help.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] frha:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dmode90:
thank you very mach, work great, nothing to sorry for, solution is real :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] str0nz0:
sashimi has a tool included, which can backup your email accounts and your settings for wireless connections. its called makisu

the best is, to use sashimi together with makisu

so rom flashing becomes very easy after setting up the application

http://www.winmo-experts.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cmalamute:
yes I'd also recommend sashimi +makisu (the latter is included in the sashimi package as well, but can also be downloded seperately). Makisu let you backup your email and wlan configurations in an xml file and restore it with a new flashed ROM. Sashimi supports many other config burdens after flashing: cab autoinstallation, registry settings, file operations and skripts. And it is working very accurate :)

PS ... but for signatures I havent seen anything in it... but will work, if the signature is file based or part of an ini-file (with sashimi)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] frha:
It would be wonderfull, if you can elaborate more and give us a sort of How-To.

TIA
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] amm009uk:
Try this...

After setting up your email accounts and before a sync, take a backup using Sprite (or what ever) but only backup your email settings. Then you can restore from this on your new ROM. I've been doing this but dont use signatures so not sure of that of that.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] e_gregious:
I've used SettingsSavior in the past. Works ok for 6.1 - bit flaky with 6.5.

It looks a bit like an abandoned project, but still works OK for email accounts and common registry settings. I don't have a link, just google and usually find it. (It's free)
[Touch Cruise General] DevaVictrix:
I cant believe ive got to not knowing which phone I have?!!

I have an O2 XDA Orbit 2.

I always thought this was the Polaris, though mine looks nothing like the one on the forum image. What I do have (as per the forum images) is an Iolite.

Is the XDA Orbit 2 a touch cruise or a touch cruise 2?

Edit: Actually my phone says its a Polaris in the Device Info. Anyone know why the case is different?
[Touch Cruise General] cozzykim:
The O2 Orbit 2 is a re-cased / re-badged Polaris with a 3M pixel autofocus camera.

IMO O2 always do a good job with the redesigns for the XDA range (case in point, the Ignito has a much nicer battery cover than the Diamond and the camera seems to be better, maybe because the lens cover glass is better as well??).

It looks like HTC have taken note of the Orbit 2's nicer case for the Iolite!!

The Iolite by all accounts doesn't have an autofocus camera?? WHAT WERE THEY THINKING??

I don't think the Iolite is available as an XDA Orbit so I guess you *do* have a re-cased (and better for it) Polaris.

I just bought an Orbit 2 S/H and IMO it's a better device than my crappy Ignito, although it has the same CPU with integrated GPS chip as the Ignito the antenna is obviously much better as I don't have the same GPS lag and acquisition problems as the Ignito on the Orbit 2!!

Oh, and I never got on well with TF3D so I'm glad to be back with the O2 today screen.

I'll miss the Ignito's camera tho' :'-(

Kim
[Touch Cruise General] DevaVictrix:
Many Thanks for clearing that up for me. I thought i'd gone mad for a bit this morning!

My girlfriend has the Ignito.

We both think its awful, I much prefer my orbit 2. Her battery life is terrible, touch screen annoying, the 3d touch flo is a bit confusing and the screen started to play up in the pub last night. It seems to open programs on its own accord sometimes too.

I can vouch that the orbit 2 is well built. I left it on the bonnet of my van and went bombing down the lanes.... it flew off at about 50mph and survived with just a few scratches. Ive had it covered in paint, cement, sand and dropped it in a puddle and it still goes on like the day I bought it.
[Touch Cruise General] sonus:
Can we get a screen shot of the O2 today screen?
[Touch Cruise General] cozzykim:
Which device do you want the today sreen from?

EDIT: Just to clarify: I went from O2 Orbit (Artemis) with WM5>O2 today plugin

to O2 Ignito (Diamond) with TF3D - The Ignito doesn't have the O2 today plugin by default so it's either TF3D or plain 'ole WM6.1

to O2 Orbit 2 (Polaris) which has WM6.1 and the O2 today plugin instead of the TF2D HTC home screen

for some reason my G1 is no longer reading the sd card. even when hooked up to windows it is not seen. is there anyway i can update through fastboot and if so how do i go about doing that. any help would be greatly appreciated. i have search all over the forum but cant find anything to help me. im lost right now.
[G1 Android Development] t4c:
First of all you should choose better topics.

Try reformatting the sdcard.
[G1 Android Development] tsalate:
ive tried that. the sd card reads fine when i put it in the computer sd reader it my g1 thats not seeing it.
[G1 Android Development] Dantehman:
Is it the origional card that came with the G1??
[G1 Android Development] akapoor:
Have you tried using another SD card in the phone? If that doesn't work - it's possible something messed up with the reader.

Although I don't think this would do anything : You may want to try wiping the phone. Ofcourse back it all up, if you want to save your apps and data.
[G1 Android Development] tsalate:
thanks for all the help but my g1 sd card reader is not reading ive tried 4 other sd i have and none work. but i forgot i did a nandroid back up like a month ago, just totally forgot so i got the .img files i needed im going to fastboot those and see what happens.
[G1 Android Development] tsalate:
well that didnt work but i feel so dumb now because i have been racking my brain and pming people to get help and nothing worked. then all of a sudden i though, why dont i just do a back up of my girls phone and flash all the files to my phone. and of course that worked. once again thanks for all the help. and if anyone out there havent done a back up i strongly suggest you do.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] PDA-Princess:
Ok here goes. Be nice, I'm new...:p

I have a Stellar in front of me (or Kaiser, TyTynII etc) which has managed to get itself into Boot Loader. I'm usually pretty good at getting these out of it but this one has me stumped, and I'm hoping someone may be able to give me some suggestions, or confirm my suspicions that it is kaput.

It's in Serial mode at the moment, showing

KAIS130

SPL-1.82.0000

CPLD-8

on the top of the screen.

So I plugged it into the computer and it nicely popped into USB mode which then let me flash it, using the file: RUU_Kaiser_O2_UK_1.82.206.1_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.32_Ship

This appeared to take, started the process, splash screen loaded, windows mobile loaded OK and for all intents and purposes was back at the factory reset (which is what I wanted). HOWEVER.....when I performed a soft reset it went back into Boot Loader and I'm now back at square one.

Any ideas? I can't install any homebrew ROMs on this, it HAS to be the standard ROM for reasons I'm not at liberty to post here (don't worry nothing illegal is going on, suffice to say, I shouldn't really be here!)

I have at least 2 others that are doing similar as well and would like to get these fixed also. All help/comments gratefully received and I apologise again if this is covered somewhere else.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] anagarika:
It seems you have not done any SPL hard flashing yet.

Did you really read the Flashing for Noob sticky ? It's there .. first you need to do hard SPL, SIM/CID Unlock, then only you can change your ROM to anything.

Please go back and re-read.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] PDA-Princess:
Sorry. Will this do anything bad to the device, only I've never done anything like that before, I've just run the ROM flash file. I've never had to do anything like you suggested before. It needs to be put back to factory as it is going to get allocated to someone - which means I then have to install a clone over the top of this.....sorry if I'm being thick. I did read the document you suggested but that resulted in me getting more confused.

If this is not the right place for me to be, please feel free to close this thread and I'll keep looking elsewhere. Cheers. :)
