Just did this and I can confirm it worked flawlessly. Directions are clear and to the T.

Thanks a lot for this man, once my business starts making some money I'll float you a little present via PayPal, cuz this was just brilliant.

DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT USING PARAGON - USE THIS GUIDE INSTEAD

Also, Ubuntu looks cool as hell! :)
[G1 General] tubaking182:
glad this helped someone out
[G1 General] horst0815:
after my new 8g card arrived yesterday, i tried to format it and make the partitions via the rom manager app, which failed. dunno why, but it didn't do the trick. so i stumbled across this guide and it's idiot-proof :) so thx alot. did the trick and everything works nicely :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] aseem123:
My hard keys are behaving weirdly.Sometimes both the home and call pickup key act as the home key i.e whether i press the call pickup key or the home key,it exits all applications.Sometimes both act as the call pickup key.So pressing either of the two starts the phone agent.Also the touch sensitive dial is not working.Please help me out.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] twincrap:
- try softreset,

- try hardreset (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Diamond_HardReset),

- if problem still ocurs, then it could be a hardware problem, find Your warranty papers ;)

Good luck
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] AnnihilatorSC:
This occurs for me too, at random intervals.
[Touch GSM General] x86:
Hi everyone, after 18mths my HTC Touch (Elf) touchscreen has stopped working! I did a soft reset and hard reset, but now in the hard reset it asks me to touch the screen to setup Windows Mobile, however I cannot do it as the screen does not work!

There is no cracks or even scratches as I use the screen protector. I have been reading about LCD's & Digitilizers, but cannot work out which one I need..

Can someone please help me. I want to buy a kit off eBay to repair it but not sure exactly what I need.

Any help will be great!

Do you guys think US$200 is a good price for a HTC Touch Duel with no scratches, as new ? I can buy one for this price, but have never used a dual, and would love my original htc touch to be fixed...

About mine:

- 18mths Old

- No scratches or damage

- Slight corrosion on the plastic where sim card etc goes, not internally but just on the mirror type plastic there is slight green corrosion but it can clean off easily.

- never been in water or anything like that!

Touch screen does not respond to touches anymore, this happened over about 2wks.. it started to not work now and again, then it switched off automatically a couple of times over that period... now it is not responding at all for about 10 days now!

I took to vodaphone and it is out of warranty, I am insured, but it is a load of bullcrap to get insurance, and even if you do you still need to pay a premium of between $150-$275 (AU$) so i might aswell either juszt pay to get it fixed or do it myself.

Cancelling Insurance on this phone ASAP, never getting insurance ever again, only for the first 12mths if phone is over $1000

insurance is lame, and only benefits if phone is lost or stolen.

cheers any1 that can assist me!
[Touch GSM General] enigma1nz:
You need a digitizer, about $20 from eBay, easy to replace, just see Service Manual for HTC Touch. Better still if you'll get the entire front faceplate with digitizer already attached, simply because it makes your life a lot easier, all you'll need to do it connect the digitizer and assemble the unit.
[Touch GSM General] x86:
thankx so much enigma1nz, i was thinking only the digitalizer was needed, but what is the diff between the lcd & digitalizer? I mean in functions etc.

thanku so much for ur time.

I will be ordering the replacement peices, do you think I should do myself or take to a repairer. I am tech savvy, I build PC's, replace RAM etc.. so it should be easy, yea?

cheers
[Touch GSM General] enigma1nz:
LCD is the screen itself, it shows the information, digitizer is responsible for the touch function. It is relatively easy to replace, simply because the design of the device allows for direct connection with no soldering involved. There is a service manual with photos floating around somewhere, I think even on this forum. Just search for it.
[Touch GSM General] x86:
Thanks Enigma1NZ, I actually got a pdf of the dissasemble guide for the htc touch, so should be perfect, I just ordered a digitizer off eBay for only AU$13.60 inc. delivery, so that is awesome!

I got a call from my insurance company today, they want $175 excess if the phone is 'approved' for insurance, plus they kill the imei number too, i told her not to worry and I'm cancelling insurance (already paid $180 all up).... damn rip off, maybe okay while in warranty, but otherwise I will not be making that mistake again!

I will keep ya'll updated, and will be videoing me pulling apart & replacing so I will upload it 4 others too.

P.S enigma, love ur photos posted in myspace.. nice work :)
[Touch GSM General] enigma1nz:
I love Touch for the simplicity and straightforwardness of its build, I was surprised the housing was so easy and reasonably cheap to replace (I am thinking of getting mine in red...or purple...). The worst digitizer replacement has to be for 1-gen Iphone and LG Prada. Blasted capacitive screens are the way of the future though and are pleasure to use.

Thanks, i got you added. Let us know how you went. Insurance companies are a bloody rip-off artists playing on our insecurities. I deal with them often when it comes to repairs. Makes no sense to insure after a warranty period simply due to technology depreciaton - you end up paying more in excess than the device is worth at the time.
[Touch GSM General] x86:
Yeah the phone looks fairly simple in its housing, I have played around with it a bit... I was actually seriously thinking about replacing my housing while I was in there to white, since I saw the Magic I love the whiteness! I would love a silver housing though, that is the ultimate but have only found white so far.

I will keep you'all updated here with photos 'n video with what I do change.

I was going to buy a prada actually, I think the screen and whole look is amazing, It was tempting but I am very satisfied I chose my touch over the Motorola Razr, Prada and Touch... Touch wins :)

Cheers again enigma1nz.
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
I heard LG screens lose sensitivity over time.
[Touch GSM General] jgaviota:
Hi, a friend of mine talked to me yesterday about his touch. It seems he has the same problem of the digitizer stoping to work.

Where can I find the service manual and do you know of a good place to buy the digitier? :)

Tanks!
[Touch GSM General] barlw:
There's a sticky topic at the top of this forum with several service manuals that you can use. As for buying the digitizer, ebay and dealextreme.com have them for cheap.
[Touch GSM General] jgaviota:
Thank you!

I really appreciate your help!
[Touch GSM General] sumeetpal.singh:
Hi... I need your help, I need to change my digitizer, so I want to know you ordered only digitizer or one already fixed on casing as Enigma told you ??

Pls let me know..Thanks
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Get a Digitizer and fix em on.

Is there any chance someone can write a script or something that forces the market to know when an app on the market has been installed by other means
[G1 General] tubaking182:
this has been discussed, backup your assets.db before you change ROMs and then push it back to your phone, i am pretty sure there is even an app for this
[G1 General] jairomeo:
Backup For Root Users will back up the market database and restore it after you change ROMs wipe or whatever. It can do other backups too, overall its a good app

shamelessly asking if anyone knows?

you will need to talk to the program developer about that, not here.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] perlmane:
Is the lack of ability to support the US AT&T 3G frequencies a ROM issue or a hardware issue?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] HTC Touch Freak:
I really don't know. From reading it is a hardware issue....but.... if it's like the TP2 and you go to where you can select which bands to use the AT&T bands are listed.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] perlmane:
The AT&T bands are not listed as being supported. I was hoping it was a ROM issue so that a radio ROM could fix the issue. It looks as if that is not the case. Makes no sense to me why HTC would want two different GSM based hardware platforms to support.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] AstainHellbring:
They did it with the first TP though. The European TP has no US 3g bands
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] perlmane:
I did not realize that because I am still using the Kaiser. There must be some good reason they chose to do this, but it escapes me. Anyway, unless there is a possibility for a ROM enablement, and it appears there is not, there is no need to continue this thread. Too bad! Thank you all for your responses.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] HTC Touch Freak:
It is not listed on the site but is listed in the phone itself. If I understand right the reason that it does not support tri or quad band 3G is that the processor is built with only specific bands. When the tecnology is there to squeeze more bands in with it then we will get what we want.

Or something like that.

Thanks for this!
[Mogul, XV6800 Accessories] AstarteSV:
Wow! Thanks alot, 20 bucks for an official verizon battery is a steal, some questions though;

1)how long do extended batteries last before they need a charge after moderate usage?

2)and what's the lifetime on them before they completely crap out?

edit: also, how long is the promo code good for?
[G1 General] cboy007:
So I just successfully figured out how to backup and restore all Locale (THE PROGRAM) settings/preferences/profiles/etc.

TO BACKUP:

adb pull /data/data/edu.mit.locale /locale

TO RESTORE (after wipe):

adb push /locale /data/data/edu.mit.locale

Please don't ask how to setup ADB...SEARCH if you have problems such as that.

I take no responsibility if this messes up your phone (but I have no idea how it would).
[G1 General] Binary100100:
Sweet! Will the same technique work for Open Home (or whatever)?
[G1 General] cboy007:
probably! i'm not really good with this stuff so i was really proud when this worked. but yeah you could just do

adb shell

ls /data/data

find the open home (or another programs') folder (probably looks like com.something.something)

that's to get the PATH to that folder. then do:

exit

adb pull /data/data/com.something.something /TheFolderOnYourComputer

and finally:

adb push /TheFolderOnYourComputer /data/data/com.something.something
[G1 General] Binary100100:
Openhome2 = com.betterandroid.openhome2
[G1 General] Abolfazl:
Not that much of a discovery but still a valid one.

You just copy the contents of /data/data and replace/add it after you update/wipe your phone
[G1 General] MetalMessiah78:
Thank you so much for that discovery!! Might not seem so impressive to one person, but this will be a hand saver for me. One less thing to set up after each wipe. Thank you so much again!!

Okay. I've spent over 3 hours trying to figure out what is going on. Connecting my Touch Pro / Fuze onto my computer used to work but for some reason today, after reading the gizmodo's "how-to" for installing winmo 6.5 it just suddenly chooses to not function properly.

So I plug in my phone and all that comes up on my computer is "unknown Device" and on the phone all i see is the icon showing that its receiving power and nothing else.

I'd like if it had some nice programs it's cool, but I plan on using SPB home, or I can even try 6.5 Windows Mobile interface never have.

I'd like it to be 6.5, and clean and enhanced ROM that enhances phone features.

Something like DCD 3.5ish for Titan, it removed all useless stuff, enhanced volume, removed HTC_Customizer, and that's about it.

Thanks, rock on XDA

Here is the Link to Opera Mobile's FTP Server to Download the New Beta of Opera Mobile 7 Beta 1:

ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/970b1/

I'm Downloading and Installing it now.....Will update you all soon.

______________

I installed it on my QVGA HTC Touch WM 6.1 (Build 21014) on the SD Card and

It Loads without any lag, Fairly fast. Renders and loads pages Pretty well too. No Major issues so far. Graphics and UI look pretty good. I still have to load the Widget Manager and try it out, never was a big fan of these. I will attempt to post some screen shots, but I am at work and may not be able to.

______________

KNOWN BETA ISSUES:

Browser

Opera Turbo in Opera Mobile is still a preview-feature;

Downloads don't work while Opera Turbo is enabled.

Some settings (such as toggle on/off images) do not apply when Opera Turbo is enabled.

On older WM 5.0 Devices with 480x800 resolution, switching between portrait and landscape may cause display errors. This is due to lack of support for this resolution in early versions of Microsoft's driver.

Some input method editors are known not to work well with Opera because they do not comply with Microsoft's SIP and/or IME standard. When such an editor is detected by Opera, Opera will use a known (default) input method instead. An exception is EzInput v1.5, where the phone keypad and compact QUERTY, ABC mode doesn't work, but the rest of the modes work fine. We recommend upgrading to EzInput v2.0 to avoid this.

Only support for FlashLite 3.x. No Flash plugin included.

Widget manager add-on

The Widget manager is an add-on to the browser, so the browser must be installed in order for the widget manager to work.

We recommend disabling Opera Turbo in the browser when using the widget manager.

Rotating widgets does not work properly. Portrait mode should be used when running widgets.

Widgets + Plugins (Flash & Gears) don't work.

Clicking internal links in a widget will launch the browser.

Twitter widget might have login problems on first run. If this happens, just close the Twitter widget (X) and open it again.

It's just a mess. I guess it isn't for QVGA? Anyone with a VGA device have it working right?

It's awesome on my ATT Fuze (VGA), no flash if people care, also the turbo mode seems to load mobile pages perhaps
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] EliWay:
Are you guys even using the right cab? I did a little research with the folders on the opera.com domain and got to this:

http://get.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/970b1/

Download the first cab.

I just tried it on my qvga device and its amazing. NO lag. It runs. Nothing seems messed up. Scrolling is EXTREMELY smooth, it's as smooth as the omnia versions but doesn't suffer with the auto-full screen bug and it doesnt lock up while loading as well.

Opera turbo works, though its disabled by default.

So far, i absolutely LOVE it!

I have to agree with zeuzinn, So far it's great on my QVGA Touch. The Link I provided is the only one I found.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jmitr:
The problem with NFSFAN's (and wdm etc) ROMs is their OpenGL software. Opera 9.7 tries to call on it and basically messes up. Opera 9.7 requires hardware accelerated OpenGL, if you don't have it it will run (not as well), if you have software OpenGL it won't work at all. Hope that's clear as mud.

IF you install this fix above you will replace the OpenGL (software accellerated) in the ROM. The good news is as above Opera 9.7 will now work. The bad news is the OpenGL in that package does not work on the Vogue, no calls are made to the GPU. You will in effect have deleted the OpenGL software acceleration on your phone and that will cause slowdowns with other apps and ui's that use it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jmitr:
Darn.........didn't see your post when I did mine.

For the user experiencing slowdowns with TF3D.

Yes, read all the above, Opera 9.7 uses OpenGL when available for the speed. For those of us without any OpenGL it will work, just not as fast or reliable.

Us skTools to ensure all Opera functions truelly shutddown. This was an issue with 9.5 as well untill "xda builds" started hitting these forums. If Opera is still running processes in the background after shutdown that call on OpenGL that would definately slowdown your TF3D as that requires OpenGL to work.
