Found it on eBay. Local T-Mo store was supposed to have on but girl never went to look for me after she sold my brother a phone. She said she thought they were glued. But like I said I read on here of an older HTC model having all the same outers just no inners. Tracked it this morning. Should be here tomorrow morning. As long as it has screw holes I can make it work. My old silverhousing is 3 yrs old. I take good care but 3 yrs is 3 yrs. Will let you know.

Sad to report

Yeah I am sad to say that my dummy phone came in the mail today. It was an EPIC FAIL. The only possible salvageable parts may be the keyboard. And that would be with some modifications as I do not think the buttons are transparent. The back of the screen where the LCD would be is solid black with the image printed on it. And the screw holes are different. I might be able to do something with it but I doubt it. It has none of the needed posts to place wires and circuit boards as the OEM. It was worth a shot though. I want a black DASH but don't really want to pony up the $100 or more for it where mine works fine. Its just ugly in silver. Calculator like. Ah well. So there ya have it. The dummy phone is a no go. I would post pictures but why bother. Anyone know where I can find an all black housing that is NOT clip on or a case? I can find the silver crap but not the black ones. Well thanks if you can. Sorry to be the bringer of bad news. :(

too bad to read, friend.

i'm checking everyday @ebay and I've found an HTC branded one for $29... I'll keep looking
[HTC Excalibur] phatmanxxl:
too bad i came to late, i would have told you dummy phones are not the same housing as regular phones, i tried it with several sprint phones when i worked at radio shack, they are made differently.
[HTC Excalibur] slipknotfn:
Yeah well its ok. My kids can score a cool spy toy now. I just want a black housing. I HATE the silver crap. I would take a red one with the silver crap but all I have found is green, pink and orange. Still looking though. Was worth a shot. Lesson learned.

Is there an app which can play AVI files?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] lodger:
i think i will bump this as this is a most have and a down side to owning a hero !
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Sergio PC:
Forward the notion.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] heartyparty:
I'm with you on this. Not being able to play .sci is a real pain.

I've also put some .mp4 files on which haven't played either for some reason. Does anyone know if there is a specific format for video on the hero? Is there a specific converter anyone is using ?

Cheers,

HP
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MercuryStar:
Using something like Handbrake to convert your videos should work. If it has a setting for Apple iPods/iPhones just use that.

Or, it should support the following:

- MP4 container format

- MPEG-4 AVC (also known as h.264) video, max 480x360@30fps (try main profile, try disabling CABAC and B-frames for more reliability)

- AAC (AAC-LC) audio, 48khz suggested sample rate

- Keep overall bitrate low, try from 800kbps to 2000kbps
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] dipje:
like most mobile devices, ofcourse there is a limit on the codecs supported, and what levels and settings in the codec that work.

In the current state, all / most clips that are _above_ the native resolution won't play at all. And as a quick rule: H264 @ level 2.1 will work, maybe some 3.0 stuff also works, but I don't know.

Basicly, make sure the MP4's you have are iPhone compatible but 480x320 or lower resolution and the Hero will play them fine.

Any video converter tool (handbrake / Megui / Mediacoder / commercial tools) wil work if you give them the iPhone preset.

About playing AVI files, nobody has written anything yet. Don't really know why people didn't jump on the bandwagon for this kinda of thing. Mostly some sort of ffmpeg-based player will appear quickly on a platform. Maybe it's the java development thing.

Anyway, convert your video's to iphone compatibility at the moment and they should play fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] MercuryStar:
Keep in mind that AVI is an older, inferior container format to MP4, and the MPEG-4 ASP (DivX) codec often used with AVI is inferior to MPEG-4 AVC (h.264) usually used with MP4. So you aren't being ripped off in terms of quality or technology. They just neglected to support the older format. Hopefully apps can bridge the gap in future (apps with native libraries that is, not the virtual machine). Given the lower system requirements, I'd say that it would probably be capable of playing an AVI/DivX file encoded up to 640x480x30fps (my old Nokia with a 369MHz CPU can come close).

For best results, however, use handbrake to convert from the original, or from your existing AVIs, to a nice ipod compatible, 480xsomething pixel MP4. Go direct from the original to MP4 (without AVI in between) for even better quality.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] felikz:
however, still after converting that video lags all the time (closed all apps either)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] dipje:
Did you update to the latest firmware? The original shipped firmware has a known issue that the video 'stutters' every second or so for a bit.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] felikz:
ah oaky, this might be the problem... waiting for donut released officially by htc for hero

Hello..

its my first time to use windows mobile i have HTC diamond WM6.1 original htc rom..

my diamond shows :

ONLY! 6 MB free of 80.3 MB in phone Storage

and 1.7 GB free of 3.67 in Internal Storage

is that normal ?

i think the problem with the phone storage !

only 6 MB free !! thats really too little and slows my phone down!

although :

- i install all programs on Internal 4GB Storage

- all camera photos and all music on Internal 4GB storage

i dont know why its low space and i dont know how to clean it !!

any help ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] biomy:
no any fix.. ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] supersanj:
right click the storage using file explorer on your PC. Click search.

In the search criteria specify all files (including hidden files) over 1MB or 1000KB and hit search. See what files come up. Delete unnecessary files or move to internal storage if files required.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] owziee:
Try clearing the opera cache and/or the google maps cache if you have an older version of google maps which stores the cache in phone memory.

New versions of google maps can be installed to internal storage and will put the cache there aswell...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] biomy:
supersanj

i did what u said and i found alot of strange files to me, but how to know if there are necessary or not for windows !! ..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] ArtieQ:
Just leave the files where they are will you? I wouldn't be suprised if you install all your programs to main memory instead of internal storage, I'm also pretty sure you got some sort of theme installed :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] biomy:
i install all programs on "internal storage" memory not "device" memory..
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pi3ch:
Hey Guys,

It is quite good that nowadays there are heaps of reviews/comments for everything specially Handheld devices. but it make decision so hard! Once you decide to buy something you will find some Cons for your selected device!

I was going to buy HTC Touch HD, I really like its big screen and so called iPhone killer features (hahah...) but then I get familiar with HTC Hero which comes with Open Source OS (I m crazy about Open source things! once you try it you really feel freedom!). so I changed my mind!

Although Android and HTC Hero have quite long way to go, but I think it is worthy to try, since Open source application develop very fast and once a bug happen (like lag problem in HTC) a big community programmers can get together to fix it. I dont wanna talk about open source capabilities cuz a lot to say. just have look at how ubuntu and other Open source OSs have been developed and today software vendors make a copy of them in their new applications (like MacBooks fancy effect copied from Compiz package in Linux)

So I just feel that I will go with HTC Hero and my main motivation is open source OS. and the simplicity of programming in this new platform (it integrate with Eclipse my favourite IDE. I tried to code for WinMo but honestly it was quite hard for me to deal with .NET things! :D )

I didnt choose Touch HD (or iphone) just because of their restrictions and less flexibility compare with Open sources softwares.

Hope some folks find my lines interesting and motivator ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Sku11y:
I have both and since getting my Hero the HD barely gets used (Both on seperate contracts).

I prefer it because of the screen, the way it is handled and displayed and generally the OS runs so much smoother than Windows Mobile.

If (or should I say when) Android gets ported to the HD I will try it on that and see how that goes!

But I am happy with my Hero :).
[Hero, G2 Touch General] pi3ch:
mmm... I never think of that, so you mean it is possible to port Andriod for other devices? does it available for other HTC models as actual OS not simulated run on top of WinMo?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] TheBrit:
It's actually not that simple. There is an Android project ongoing for the Diamond and Raphael (Touch Pro) but it more experimental than anything. I've tried it on my Diamond and some parts of it did work but as it is now you could not use it every day.

The HD running Android and the HTC Sense UI would be awesome though :D

Edit: Android loads on the Diamond by running a program called Haret which loads some initial bits and then the phone reboots into Android. Next time you soft reset it goes back to WinMo.
[General Questions and Answers] GLO:
Hi, i wanted to know if anyone has any suggestions for downloading files.

Most times the files download and ask where i want them to be saved and whether they are to launch/install when completed.

However there are an increasing number of apps that i download but dont get the above options. They try to auto install and either fail or corrupt.

Some of these apps are Java apps, so ideally i need to save them to the storage card first then install, but that just doesnt happen.

all help is appreciated.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ftg888:
here is the googlization:

"

From August 29 onwards, will also hold large-scale outdoor activities, so that more consumers have the opportunity to experience the HTC Hero. In addition, until early October ended October 31, where to buy HTC Magic of consumers will be able to HTC official website to download the latest software free of charge (to upgrade the market value of about NT services 1,500 million), HTC to allow more users to experience the HTC "to people-oriented "design concept, specially-made mobile phones are the perfect you."

This roughly translates to, if you buy an HTC magic, you will get the HTC SENSE UI as a free upgrade when we release it for the magic. Its a way of encouraging further htc magic sales

of left over stocks considering the hero has not gone on sale in HK yet. I bought my htc magic for 4000 HKD last week. its an 32A model, very happpy with it. Considering the HERO will retail for 4400 or less it will KILL the sale of the HTC MAGIC STONE DEAD. Im running a hero rom on my magic, its wonderful. :) happy camper.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] ghoonk:
Looking forward to getting SenseUI on Magic. From what I understand 32A and Hero hardware specs are very similar, so we can expect a similar level of performance. I'm guessing they will have to tweak the drivers for the headphone jack and the 5MP camera, but aside from that, perhaps it is a straightforward upgrade :)

I got the Magic on Vodafone Spain for 170 euros + voucher points, and if only I would've came around here earlier to have a look at the posts, I don't think I would've got it from Vodafone. This is lame, totally lame, especially when Vodafone has its own hip'n'cool Android blog that lets you know about cool stuff coming out for the phone. What they never posted is that they sell the crippled version of an otherwise brilliant gadget.

Damn you carriers... :mad:

If you open Contacts directly, not from Phone/Conatcs of TouchFlo 3D then you will find "Edit Before Call" in the Contacts menu. You have two options as far as I have found: 1. Close the TouchFlo and use Start/Programs/Conatcts to open the Contacts. 2. Use one of the TouchFlo Start icons to link to Contacts. It work quite well though not for call list.

More then likely..

Ya id say the a2sd on a class 2 is probably gonna bog the crap out of your phone. The reason people recommend a class 6 is because of the speed. Class 2 just cant move data fast enough to keep up. Get a class 6 or keep the apps on the phone.

Also this is just my theory. I could be wrong.

Hi to all here you have done a wonderfull job so far. What i was wondering is it possible i saw it gsmarena site that the new htc hero is much like iphone the photos or galery and the internet browser are made multitouch. Is it possible somehow to get the drivers of the screen from hero and to make the hd as well multitouch like hero. I know that it is a very hard work and i know how the multitouch works i mean i understand very good i just am not that good a programer to make it my self. But since hd and others like daimond 2 and touch pro 2 and the hero are alike in almost everything hardware wise i was just wondering if it possible. I know that hero useses android linux and the broweser should be chromo and suports multitouch maybe some programer can make it work in Windows mobile as well.

I havent tested this but here is something that works in multitouch
