no case!!??? omg....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akash_84:
There was a MASSIVE thread on cases with the HTC Tytn2 if I remember correctly

Voda for instance used to give you one but orange didn't nor did HTC original etc etc

This did the same with HTC Diamond...no case with my genuine one but a few networks did give it

And now I am sure the same will be the case with the Topaz/Diamond2 because we have already seen one user on here posting pictures of the box containing the case/pouch.

I have ordered a belt pouch and sock for it now - not sure which one I will use but I think it was good HTC did not give me a pouch - I am convinced it was the pouch that caused some scratches/paint removal on the original Diamond because of how tight the pouch was causing the diamond to always rub on the way in/out
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuanes:
They really cut down the cost of the box the TD2 is coming with not like the previous Diamond you got a nice plastic box with the shape of a Diamond. About the pouch they didn’t ad it either with the diamond but also that they don’t give you a memory card with it, like the Touch HD or other phone companies.

The fact is that you really can see where they cut down the cost to make it a little cheaper for sale.

Like the box for instance and the stylus also isn’t magnetic anymore:(.

But that doesn’t say the phone is bad. Personally I think it’s the nicest phone that’s released in ’09
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackleung:
What bluetooth stack it's using?

From the rom, I found it using Broadcom stack instead of MS one.

Do you have an A2DP headset? What's the sound quality? Does it have the A2DP dropped issue after phone call which happened on all the HTC device w/ MS BT stack? Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Juggles:
UK retail exactly the same

Except manuals and plugadapter are English of course!

Got mine a minut ago:

No shiny charger :(

No shiny usb cable :(

No pouch :mad:

But the phone is beautiful :eek:

Where can i buy the originel pouch for the diamond 2:confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjangoBE:
I got mine to. I was the first in Maastricht ( for the people of holland, i gues they know wich city i mean :) )

To bad there isnt a sock or something, and it is a big bummer that they didn`t include a 8GB memory card. I will buy a card of 4GB cause that will be sufficient for me...

The D2 is beautiful though... The looks exceed the looks of the D1 by far imo. And the touchpro handles quite easily. The ringtonevolume is increased a lot ( something that really bothered me with the first diamond )

Overall a really good phone and worth every penny ( eurocent :) )

I would like to report Phase 1 of 2-way recording has been successful on the Touch Diamond 2!

I tested it with the standard Notes program which has limited recording functionality

On dialling my voicemail and playing it back, it has recorded clearly, the otherwise

I will be testing once I find a decent program, properly with something like Vito Audio Notes

Got mine this morning too, not allowed mobiles at work but still sneakily played with it all day!

Using it at the mo to write this, my Elfin is now banished to my gadget drawer.

Would anyone be kind enough to tell me the screen measurements? Height/Width? can't seem to get my head around 3.2 inches and can't see how to convert WVGA into anything.

Also, is there any way to make it so that things like the People, Photos etc. pages are set to default to show all contacts or all photos rather than the "slide over me" single views?

And finally, if you don't mind answering, do you have to go via Winmob to create/reply to a text or can it all be done in Touchflo 3D?

Many thanks! Quite jealous of you all playing with your new Touch Diamonds ;)

Mine came a week early!!!!

Ordered mine from Expansys yesterday, was told to expect it in a week only to find it turns up today!!!! Experience so far is very good, it is much faster than the TD1, feels solid and well built, shiny back is still a fingerprint magnet though!!

Speaker is loud and clear, phone reception is good, etc.etc

Reveived mine 2 :D its indeed incredibly fast comparing to the TD1
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyrohunter:
I have a question for all those who already own the TD2.

Is the speaker quality good enough for playing songs? And is it loud enough?

I have never had a HTC device so I can't compare.

I just had a Nokia N95, N97 and a Samsung I7110 but the speaker quality of those was good enough.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cfvilela:
Got mine today as well :D

I didn't have much time to play with it and since it came with no microSD card, I didn't install any software yet.

As said by many of you, it feels much faster than TD1 :)

TD2 versus Trinity

I have had mine about a week and find it is not a suitable upgrade to the Trinity. I use this primarily for work and it is not used much for multimedia, etc.

Major problems:

1) The handwriting recognition is horrible. I am an expert with the block recognizer and take all my meeting notes into it. The error rate and the level of pressure needed to get anything is problematic. I assume they designed this device with other input methods in mind as the primary. I actually bought this because my Trinity has been used hard and the handwriting recognition is now poor. On this basis alone, this was a bad purchase for me.

2) No D-pad means selecting an item and not executing it (single click versus double click on a PC) is tough. I may figure out the trick, but at this point, I am executing everything I want to select.

3) No case. The HTC case I bought turns out to be a generic and not a good fit. It is too large and yet the power button is always pushed when putting it in and taking it out.

4) The Bluetooth problem persists. I podcast some NPR stuff for the commute. The skips, etc that were present in WM 6 are still here. If you are buying this for the BT A2DP functionality, skip it.

5) It is no faster than the trinity if you use a stripped ROM and not TF.

6) The phone reception is miserable (USA/ A&TT). Hopefully a radio ROM update is in the works already. I have more missed and dropped calls than received.

On the bright side, the one really good thing that makes this worth the purchase, Skype works great. I travel internationally a lot, and in a week I often run up $600 in roaming charges. This drastically cuts it.

Web browsing is pretty cool too.

Bottom line, I will probably look to buy another Trinity and use this as a Skype phone when I am out of the USA. This is a toy designed to compete with the iPhone. Not really optimal for business use, but great for students.

I hope some cooked ROMs come out that move the focus from flashy interface to function.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bram_smulders:
I'm using this device dayly for my work(sending about 20 emails via this device a day), this goes quite good with the xt9.

Handwriting i didn't use yet, but a've always thought it was crappy:D

Why selecting and not executing? you can scroll through your files and see them without executing em with your finger, i dont mind that they dont light up green...:rolleyes:

The case is not a problem of the device... it's a problem of the manufacturer of the case.

I'm a music fan and i find BT a2dp works great with my philips sbh100 headphones, not stuttering, no skips, good quality stuff, so i dispower your statement that a2dp is crappy.

My conception of this phone is very very good, the best phone i've ever had!

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pietrucci:
Totally agree, by far the best!

Mascian releases new I780 ROM based official PDXIB1 english ROM.

Link to Garsim Blog (in italian: http://garsim.blogspot.com/2009/04/i780-rom-mascian-winmo-65-ix-e-x.html

Direct download link (latest version X): http://www.4shared.com/file/98660351/2c75bb0e/i780_wm_65_X.html

This is PDA only! If you want to have PDXIB1 phone please first download and install official PDXIB1 ROM (EXE updater) from http://fus.samsungmobile.com/i780/SEA/PDXIB1/i780PDXIB1_Upgrader_XP.exe (for XP) or http://fus.samsungmobile.com/i780/SEA/PDXIB1/i780PDXIB1_Upgrader_VISTA.exe (for Vista) and first run after installation. If you want to test latest WM 6.5 cooked ROM next flash Mascian ROM with Mirage tool.

Remember that the testing WM 6.5 ROM at your own risk​

I flash my Samsung I780 and write short conclusion:

Pros:

Based latest PDXIB1 ROM.​

Better login (loader) screen similar to Windows Vista login screen compared with the previous login screen.​

A nicer Today wallpaper from Windows 7 default wallpaper and little nicer Menu Start bacground.​

Cons (bugs):

NO INTERNET EXPLORER!

Vexing picture bug in 4-way navigator and cursor mode. This bug is worst than previous Mascian builds.

Automatic locking the screen after wake up every time. This is a huge mistake and very worrisome to prevent normal use of the phone.​

Poor logout screen such as in previous Mascian ROM builds.​

Mascian must correct this bugs on next WM 6.5 cooked builds!

LOL the way I used to hide box of mouse cursor which ruin the screen is : in the mouse function move it down to the left bottom corner of screen it will disapear then close mouse function and move to 4 way button instead then you will never see any box on your screen again :p ,

By the way, the bug of contact list while scroll down is still so it's the reason for me move back to use 6.1

Too much things in the original post "HTC Sapphire/Vodafone Magic G1 Port".

I'd like to focus on solutions to solve the market issues on 5.0.xG versions.

PLEASE : NO TROLL such as "move to 5.0.xH version, it's better, and it works". Move to another post to troll.

We are here to find solution.

Few ideas have been discussed in the original post such as vendink.apk version or build.prop.

Does anybody have more ideas ?

here is a dump of HTTP packets transiting during a Market application request (useful siwtchers)

It was done (and failed) with 5.0.1G

It could be very interesting to view the same exchange with a working Market version such as 5.0.2H or ADP1. Anybody can do the same capture ? I used BackTrak Linux distribution to did that.

We can see an interesting string in the Market HTTP request : "location,1.0,android,android,en_US.5........g...........g:loc/ql...........1.0.Tandroid/tmobile/kila/dream/trout:1.1/PLAT-RC33/126986:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys.#2:ddGVOXszuvQlZm8K:1TxOlLJHRfpoZ92D*.fr_FR2.....F SFR .(......server.checkin....settings....location....systemupdater....android....providers.subscribedfeeds....providers.settings"

[G1 Android Development] TemporalShadows:
I've been following the haykuro megathread...so I wanted to throw out what people are talking about there.

It's possible that there is a difference between the way H and G builds are identifying themselves. We've got a dump from the G build, can anyone get one from the H build so we can compare? That's the first step to either identifying this as the problem or ruling it out. If we can rule out the identification factor it may come down to the actual vending.apk just having a bug, or maybe that specific version of vending.apk is being identified by google. Anyway, it's a start.
[G1 Android Development] koxx:
do you know if anybody try do pick a vendor.apk from H and run it on G ?

another intersting thing can be to explore build.prop (because it is really used for Market exchange) difference to be sure we can't use G market app (with H build.prop file).

can anybody post a /system/build.prop file in H & G versions here ?
[G1 Android Development] dwang:
H version of vendor.apk doesn't work on G. At least when I tried it.

here is 5.0.1G build.prop

Hey Koxx; do you have any quick way of getting your tcp-dump data easily? I'd be glad to help then.
[G1 Android Development] koxx:

Can the "new" G market application transmit more or different informations with same build.prop ?
[G1 Android Development] koxx:
easy, not exactly, but not too long.

You need a Laptop with Wifi & a home acces point.

You download a Linux distribution specialized for wifi security test (suck as BackTrak, here : http://www.remote-exploit.org/backtrack_download.html)

You boot on this Live CD.

Here are commands to log wifi packets :

ifconfig wlan0 up

airmon-ng start wlan0

airodump-ng wlan0

airodump-ng wlan0 -c 7 -w nom_fichier # 7 etant le canal wifi des echanges entre ton AP et ton G1

easy ;)

[G1 Android Development] TheDudeOfLife:
Typically...if we're talking about the old rules (no tinfoil hats) the build was identified by the market using the ro.build.fingerprint from the build.prop.

That's what we had to change to make PAID apps work in both builds.

BUT, you can copy the H build.prop to G and it doesn't fix the problem.

I have yet to see anywhere what Haykuro did to make the R2 builds.

[G1 Android Development] mrcrb:
As I said in the other thread I am sure the market issue has something to do with the market application version. With the almost same build.prop between H and G there's no difference exchanging them.

The interesting part is that G says for "build number" (directly on the phone) PLAT-RC33 (or something like that, forgotten) with the same build.prop. So I edited the build.prop many many times and tried much more options and and and.

Yesterday I flashed back to JF. Installed all my apps directly from the market again. This morning I've downloaded a new application and after that I saw the new uploaded Haykuro build which said "fixed market". I've flashed (wiped twice before and once after) and then configured (APN, wireless networks, etc.) and rebooted the device. After the device rebooted I saw the arrow-down-icon in the notification bar - the application I've downloaded this morning was automatically downloaded and installed. I was happy and thought "Cool, it's really fixed!". But: I couldn't download anything form the market (stalled "downloading file").

My guess is, that Google updated something in the communication between server (market online) and client (market application) for the upcoming Android phones and/or SDK 1.5 - so the "old" client versions act like before and the "new" client versions are somehow blocked/stalled/whatever.
[G1 Android Development] koxx:
perfect !!!!

can you give all the exchange ? with hexa values ?

and the HTTP answer from google server ?
[G1 Android Development] MarcusMaximus04@gmail.com:
sounds solid, they're probably updating for 1.5 and did something so that only version 1.5 would be effected by the maintenance, thus causing the slowdown for us(my guess this is probably just a different market application, maybe one that goes through a different server). It definitely isn't blocking downloads though as I've had 3 go through so far. Each one just took a ridiculously long time.
[G1 Android Development] koxx:
To answer, for my HTTP dump, I tried to download Useful switchers
