[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgeono:
hello, is it a common problem? or is there a problem with mine? Not actually very hot, but hotter than the room temperature
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snowman75:
I have the same thing, especially if the handset is charging through USB from my laptop.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgeono:
I don't recharge from USB as I've read that it is bad for the battery. Again, not very hot. Also slightly hot when using UiFi for a very long time, or playing a lot. I guess it's normal. Being used a lot ... :-? I don't know, just asking
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snowman75:
Hi georgeono,

I can't remember how to disable charging on connectivity to the PC. Can you please point that out to me?

Many thanks,

Ayman
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snowman75:
Hey, I already found it. Don't bother yourself :))

It's Settings -> All Settings -> System Tab -> Power -> Battery Tab
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Overloaded:
And why would charging through USB be bad?? :confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgeono:
well, to make a good charge, you should leave the phone 5-6 hours (even though the led is green, I let it even up to 10 hours (charging at night)). When at PC, I don't think you all the time keep the phone pluged. In order to make a good charge, the battery has to be nearly empty (new phones work well without this waiting, but still, in time ... you see the differences). And I don't think anyone waits for his phone to be empty to connect via USB. :D.

I previously had an SE 850i (4 years used). Always charged when battery was empty, charged about 6 hours, and now, in stand-by, the battery resists 10-11 days. That is something ... 4 years!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTSpawn:
It's normal,the battery heats up when under heavy use/if charged. It's nothing to worry about;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgeono:
Thanks. Had the same opinion, but still asked. never know ...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilipL:
Hi

This is a myth for lithium rechargeables :)

Lithium type batteries do not mind when they are charged, and topping them up is perfectly fine. Topping up little but often is probably going to extend the life of the battery if anything and not reduce it, why? The biggest killer of lithium type batteries is heat, and giving it a charge from nothing to the maximum means it gets opportunity to get very warm which ages it, whereas lots of little charges will not up the temperature nearly as much.

Also another myth, you can't damage lithium batteries by overcharging them, this is because the current is stopped when they are fully charged as if it wasn't they would explode!

Lithium batteries also have a use by date, and as soon as they are made they start to age and reduce in capacity, so you are better off using and abusing the battery to get as much from it as you can, as age and heat will probably kill it first. :(

Regards

Phil

My device is very hot when charging... Much hotter than my Touch Pro2 gets
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hellboy1970:
i experienced a few times that my compact V (topaz model from T-mobile) freezes while using navigation software in the car, meanwhile charging... When i took my phone from the holder, it was extremely hot! After holding it in front of the airco for a while and restarting, everything worked fine again. Anyone else with the same problem?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr-Fly:
I found out, that using GPS uses the battery extremely.

It drains with about 300 mA, while normal usage ist at <70-80 mA and standby even a lot less.

Additionally I found out, that the device becomes sluggish due to processor-Usage of nearly 100% (while using gps).

That might be what you are seeing.

Regards Thorsten

talking about GPS usage, when ever i'm on iGo when i minimize it to make a phone call, it doesnt connects. i had to exit iGO n wait a while before it is available to dail. or a quick soft resets solve it.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Lord_Kang:
Hi guys..Can someone enlighten me on how to install themes on diamond 2??

Thanks!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Lord_Kang:
Ahmm..anyone got offer any solutions??

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] milton009:
What kind of theme? TFL3D or 6.1?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Lord_Kang:
i'm sorry.What's the difference??

Those themes for diamond is different from diamond 2 right?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] yys21:
can i know where did you downloaded your themes?i downloaded mine from mobile 99 but after running it in my td2 it only changes the colour of the upper bar.that doesn't seems like a theme to me
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] milton009:
1.When you disable TFL3D from Today list, you will see the WM theme on Today,this kind of theme will use *.tsk file.just download it and put it to the "My Documents" flooder of your Device.

2.TFL3D themes will have two way to change it, some of them use Manila file,you have to use Total comment or Resco explorer to copy this kind of file to the "window" of your Device.

or

*.cab file, it just like you install a program,but you must install it to your Device.

3.Don't use Diamond theme for D2, it's not work,and someone said the Touch pro2 theme can be use, but I never try it,and you can try this

[24-6-09][v1.1] Give TF3D more color...,

it's good for me.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Lord_Kang:
Is the program Total Comment and Resco explorer available in the forum??I did a search but unable to find.

Thanks!!

Regards,

SajiB
[Sable] nihonjin:
I have the same problem. It use to work but then it stopped. But it stopped before i put any of the roms from here so it is not because of any cooked rom.

If you find a solution let me know. I have looked and cant find any solution hat works.
[Sable] Lasker1:
I had exactly the same problem. Hp replaced my device on warranty. Now its fine.

I think it's a known weakness.
[Sable] sajibcy:
but i bought without warrenty!!! any chance for me?
[Sable] Lasker1:
Check if the device has some warranty left, I bought mine second hand and it had warranty left. Ups picked it up and delivered a new device after 4 days:)

i just check from HP site....and it has warrenty...so wht i can do???i live in cyprus.
[Sable] Lasker1:
Call your nearest Hp customer service they will help you:)
[Sable] sajibcy:
thanx bro.let me check in the morning.
[Sable] Lasker1:
Don't forget to flash an official rom before returning it:cool:
[Sable] sajibcy:
as ur advice i called today HP Greece...they looks to be helpful...i describe my prob,1st they give me the rom solution but when i told them that i check all this then they said they will replace that...they told me they'll email me for details and pickup from my home...so all i want to know from u that,is this the same way u replace ur 614c ???? i want to add here that i bought it as refurbished.so do u think they gonna replae it?

regards,

sajib
[Sable] Lasker1:
Yes its the same way i got mine replaced, except that i live in Sweden.

But i think the procedure is the same all over the world.

Probably they replace the unit to a new one, I think its to time consuming to repair and send back the same device.

They guarantee that it will take maximum 8 days I think.

Good Luck:)
[Sable] sajibcy:
so looks like for this prob replacement is the only solution. hope they'll mail me...still i didnt get any mail though!!! :-( every 10 min i'm checking my mail box and thinkin maybe they mistake my email add :D anyway thr is nothing more i can do except wait!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] know_fun:
i've always wondered about this because of all the posts. its kind of a rant just forwarning

i understand that the US is in a recession so excuse me if i generalize, but why use the fuze as a substitute carpc? i understand people spend good money on a pda but why not just build a carpc.

you get more functionality with more upgradability and bigger screen

a budget inspired carpc can be had very cheap even brand new is still cheaper than buying a unbranded unlocked touch pro.

just to give you guys an idea i've built mine under 500 it would have been mid 300 but i'm an audio guy so i had to get a legit sound card and went with a 8" vs 7" and keep in mind this is brand new prices. you dont even need a sound card

8" touchscreen ~150

all-in-one pc ~90

hdd + memory ~60

power supply ~80

sound card ~100

i get internet and gps because of my phone but any 3g gps enabled phone could do this.

i think a fuze attached to wires is ludacris and hateful to the phone. its a "mobile" phone not a landline lol k flame away
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] KevinACrider:
The Fuze does almost everything your CarPC does and it fits in my pocket. I can take it into the gym and still access my music, still use the internet, etc. Just in the car it's attached to a larger screen.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] norok:
If I went with a CarPC project I'd want to go all out. I have a Dodge Charger with the stock NAV. It works well but it is limited; not a touchscreen, only plays MP3 CDs with no hard drive interface.

I've played with the idea of replacing it with a 10" touchscreen for VGA movies/DVDs, pretty well sized solid state HD for media storage (for shock resistance and low energy consumption), wifi to link with my home network and download while in my garage, run Windows XP with some GPS based Navigation software, and of course have a USB port for my Fuze to serve as a 3G modem when on the road for browsing and traffic updates.

If I could link the Fuze to a touchscreen, maybe even interface with a more accurate GPS antenna, and wire it into my car stereo I would be one happy driver.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] know_fun:
i know you said almost everything so just to toss it out there. i do make backups of my cds but in order to add music to my phone i would have to either buy mp3s online or use my pc to add music to the phone. same goes with movies. of course this is legally speaking only.

i change through albums and artists all the time. i dislike wm players just takes to long to access

i can drive around and pop in dvds and watch movies on road trips.

i also enjoy listening to higher quality stereo (ya i know its a personal preference i've listened to afew mp3 player instals and i am enjoying the money well well spent)

the battery isn't horrendous on the fuze but its not above decent. i would love to be on wifi or 3g the whole time. yes we know hopping on peoples networks is a nono but still. yes i can take my fuze with me but charging and listening to music ugh power noise
[Touch GSM General] nando_666:
Hello,

I recently bought this pda that generally is called “HTC Touch Clone”, “DX Touch”, “Dopod S1”, so I really don’t know its name. Since I bought it I have been following this forum and I already found several stuff here, especially software that I now use every day.

This is a ready good phone and I really happy with it (taking into account the price that is really low compared to similar phones here in Portugal) and my only problem with this phone is the network reception that is really crappy. I was told that updating the radio this problem could be solved, so my question is does anyone who owns this phone was able to somehow update the ROM of this phone?

If so, how did you do it? Which ROM did you used?

Many Thanks in advance,

Nando666
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
you cant flash ANY roms here.

Clones is not supported and you may end up with a dead phone after flashing.

Im very sorry but this is how it works.
[Touch GSM General] nando_666:
It should be possible

It is possible, since they provide one image in their forum.

Does anyone with this phone tried a ROM upgrade?
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Its risky.

If you think you want to give a shot.

I have no say.

Cheers.
[Touch GSM General] nando_666:
I know it is risky. That is why I am looking for someone with this phone that can share his experiences.

Someone?
[Touch GSM General] wnpaul:
You are not likely to find anyone here with an Elf Clone, folks at this site deal with the genuine HTC phones, not with clones.

Therefore no-one here is going to be willing to make any statements about the clones.
[Touch GSM General] nando_666:
I have seen several posts of people that have a clone in this forum.
[Touch GSM General] carlos.fernando:
trash

I have washed out my last REAL HTC touch so i bought one from china 60% off. Its came with a lot of problems. I will try flash (burn) a new ROM soon. I tell if a get something.
[Touch GSM General] enigma1nz:
My understanding is, you cannot flash any ROM that is designed to work on an authentic HTC to a clone. Doing so will ultimately brick your phone, quite a few people tried with the same result.
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Yes, Agreed.

MORAL: dont flash, unless you a ready for the support line.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] clarkill:
Hi,

Since I have upgraded my HTC touch cruise with several ROMs (included wm6.5), I have a little issue with the sound.

I tried wm6.1 and 6.5 and several Roms Radio and it behaves identical: when i'm calling the sound comes from the front speaker AND the back speaker o_O

Thus, the sound seems to be divided both front and rear and I have some difficulty to hear because the sound is very low. Before the upgrade it was working.

Anyone has an idea?

Thanks

I am going on a trip to Spain for a month and I am using the WM 6.5 mystic series ROM and although slightly more stable than my last ROM it still crashes a lot while texting.

What is the most stable WM 6.5 ROM and if there isn't should I just go with WM 6.1 ROM?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] rabinhood:
What is the most stable WM 6.5 ROM and if there isn't should I just go with WM 6.1 ROM?[/QUOTE]

All the 6.5 ROMs are unofficial and not fully complete. They're running fast and smooth, but there can always be some specific issues, especially with some games. As far as I know the most stable is the latest build you can get from Da_G, and the whole rest are build with his kitchen.

I use 6.5 ROMs for quite a long time with no major problems.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] dnieman13:
anything from nrg 6-13 3.0 rom has been great. Fast stable and reliable
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Agent Blair:
Sheps ROM is very stable with everyday basic use. But don't try any game emulators or rely on the windows lock, as I noticed it was a bit slow. He is also using the WVGA youtube (seriously, I don't know why ROM cookers can't just use the VGA one, it's the same exact thing but for VGA!) and the ROM is also using the older htc album application. Titanium seems to be ignored by Shep and only the basic widgets work, such as email, phone notifications, text, time, pictures and calender etc. Other than that it worked very well with the 1.14.25.05 radio, at least where I live for calls, texts, GPS, and email.

Other than that I haven't really found any super-stable 6.5 ROMs if you want EVERYTHING to work such as all the WM programs and today-screens. But for the basics of a smartphone, I would vouch for sheps rom.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] aceofspades1217:
I don't know, everyone just seems to be having great experiences with their WM 6.5 ROMs.

Is there something I'm doing wrong because all of the ROMs I have tried have incredibly buggy sms messaging.

[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] X2D:
I have never heard of a pandora issue with 6.5, which ROM were you using and did you try setting your internet to not disconnect after X seconds/minutes? Just trying to help, because IMO 6.5 is leaps and bounds way ahead of 6.1 in terms of usability, functions are mainly the same, but I could never go back to 6.1 and I've been using 6.5 since January when Da_G first released his leaked build.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] antoniouslj:
I don't know what SMS problem you're referring to, but I have major issues with hardware keyboard lag on every single 6.5 rom I've ever tested. The one rom that did "okay" was the special stripped Image Update test rom Da_G came out with a week or so ago. It had no camera and was missing several other modules for testing purposes, but miraculously it was the most stable 6.5 I've ever used.

I've flashed regularly since Da_G started his 6.5 rom kitchen thread, so I've seen every build. The one way to circumvent any issues would be to use TF3D2's built-in SMS (which is flawless, except for the tapping the text box AFTER you slide out the keyboard) or use something like Vito SMS Chat, or other third party sms program. They all seem to have 0 to no lag whatsoever and are relatively stable. I think the problem lies in WM6.5's pocket outlook backend.
