Something that has been bugging me is the speed at which file are copied between my pc and my phone.

I was playing with my dads phone (The HTC Touch Diamond 2) and I noticed a nice feature, when the phone is connected to the pc it asks you to choose a connection setting, namely: Active Sync, File Storage, or Internet Conn Sharing.

If you choose the file storage mode, the phone appears as a flash disk type device with access to the storage card and files are transfered at the same speed as one would expect from a flash disk.

So my question basically is, is it possible to do something like that with my HTC Elf, I'm running WM 6.0.

Thank in advance.
[Touch GSM General] Cero92:
Almost all cooked ROMs have got this feature... However, if you don't want to flash your device, you can use apps like WM5torage
[Touch GSM General] dgcarter:
Too late I'm afraid... did the whole rom upgrade thing, got a bit carried away and now my phone is bricked, so much so that it wont even power on... looks like it was my 1st and last smartphone. :(
[Touch GSM General] Cero92:
Try to unbrick it using this
[Touch GSM General] dgcarter:
I wish I could... problem is, the phone is literally dead, and I mean dead... I push the power button and nothing happens... at all.
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Sounds like a Motherboard issue.
[Touch GSM General] dgcarter:
It was working perfectly until it restarted after I tried restoring my dumped SPL and IPL. I don't know why it would just become so totally unresponsive, its never given any trouble before.
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Oh, no wonder!

You cannot ever restore dumped spl or ipl, as you can get it from the forums.

Gold card method left.

Check the elf-upgrading forum.
[Touch GSM General] dgcarter:
Oh well, you live you learn... I was relieved to find that I still have 3 months on the warranty, and the phone is so stuffed up that I don't think theres even any way to tell that I had all sorts of funky roms on the device.

I started looking into the idea of restoring the device with the JTAG technique, but there's not much info out there re: the elf, so I thought I'd be kind to myself and just drive all the way out to Lab88 and get them to repair it.

Hold thumbs, lol...
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Well, you still had 3 months on the warrenty? Bring it back to HTC!

Dont bother to go to any other place.
[Touch GSM General] dgcarter:
I did take it to HTC... In SA Lab88 are the HTC people, lol... They used to be leaf, but they changed for some reason.
[Touch GSM General] jeremy89632:
Oh, thats weird.

I thought it should be called like ' HTC Customer Service Centre '.

Because thats whats its called in Singapore.

Hey i'm new here and I could use some help =]

First is that I currently use N95 but next week i'll get my first HTC which is Diamond, and for the first time i'll be using WinMO6.1 instead of Symbian.

So the first thing I do is research, and then I found out this place which I can already see that i'll be spending some good time tweaking my diamond, but after reading countless threads about ROMs and RADIOs and such I still don't get a few things, if you could explain it to me, I would be grateful.

1.Which ROMs are better? cooked (which I understand are user based) or the HTC ones?

2.I Currently live in israel, so hebrew is an important part of my day, so it goes without saying that I need to be able to read and write english. I Don't want the OS to be in hebrew, but atleast beeing able to read and write, so my question is, if I'll flash another ROM instead of the offical one i got from Orange (which contain hebrew), will I lose this option? and if I will, will i be able to install it again?

3.I Understand that the basic UI provided with the diamond is the Touchflo3D, but I also read something about Manilla, and another shell I can't remmember, would anyone care to explain to me about these shells? I Saw one shell that looked exactly like HTC Hero, but it wasn't Android OS, just the UI, Was that Manilla?

and my final request is this, this phone has been around for a long time , so naturally there are alot of ROMs for it and alot of tweaks, softwares and stuff like that, if someone can direct me to the most updated, trusted and stable releases i'd be very grateful!, I need the diamond to have decent battery, good signal, good music player (very important for me) and if possible, i'd love the Theme that looks like the HTC Hero OS :).

Thanks to anyone who spent time on reading all of this and I can't wait to get my hands on the diamond :)

P.S

Sorry for my english by the way.

here's a theme i made for Wisbar advance 3, goes great with TF3D.

i understand this theme is a little 'thin on the ground' but it is for use with TF3D so i have included all that i feel is needed.

i'm just doing a few finishing touches, i have used the TSowen style of taskbar that is included in most new roms and i have combined it with a previous style of mine No iDea.

The theme is very basic and doesnt include most of the notification icons. they will be added at a later stage.

Screenshots of v1.2

​

Changelog:

v1.0 Original Release

v1.1 (11th October)
- updated a few icons
- included silent/vibrate icons

Leave me some feedback... i much appreciate any comments good or bad.

you need to install wisbar advance 3, it is available for free for a trial period.

then you need to select Theme>Wisbar Theme>Menu>Install...

Diamonds on it? No wonder it's the most expensive. But if you have one, I bet you will never use it. That can be taken as collection, but never as bluetooth so it actually can't be called "Bluetooth"....

Try going into the settings and telling your phone to only use 2g networks. My phone did the same thing prior to getting 3g in my area and this workaround circumvented any restart issues.
[General Questions and Answers] Mus:
I've enjoyed the XDAIIi but it's getting too long in the tooth now.

Can anyone suggest a modern replacement unlocked PDA available in the UK for use with an existing O2 SIM?

I like the 3.5" screen, the app multitasking and the stylus rather than a purely touch screen...

Doubling as a GPS navigator would be great too.

Something like the iPhone would be fun but it strikes me as too fiddly to do the amount of typing and word processing I like to do.

Thanks for any suggestions...

Hi everybody,

I've god a dumb question:

Each time when I receive a mail via my mobile phone (HTC Touch pro) it's getting deleted on my mobile phone when I send/receive my mails via Outlook on my PC.

Is there any hint how I can prevent the messages getting deleted?

I alredy tried google etc. and I couldn't find any solution on this.

Thank you very much for your answers.

Best regards

Uetzwurschd
[General Questions and Answers] 66mustang:
This is to stop your webmail server getting full.

Your Outlook client is the 'master'; when it polls your webmail account it removes the copies from the server. You phone just makes a local copy, and leaves the original on the server for your Outlook to download and keep later.

You will find a checkbox in Outlook so that it will leave the copies on the web-server, but you need to be very disciplined to keep it empty by regular clear-outs, otherwise it will fill up and you will find messages getting bounced.
[General Questions and Answers] Uetzwurschd:
Hi,

thank you for your reply. Sorry for my delay. I'm in a hospital at the moment.

I know that my Outlook is the master :-)

But how can I say my telephone that deleted messages on the server shall not be deleted on my mobile phone?

When my phone synchronizes first, all messages are kept on the server and a copy is stored locally on my phone. Now, when Outlook synchronizes, the message on the server will be deleted. When there is another synchronization by my phone, it discovers that locally stored copies are not available on the server anymore and deletes the local copies.

But I want my phone to keep the locally stored messages!!! There can't be the problem that the server of the mail provider overcrouds as messages are deleted everytime outlook synchronizes.

So, is there any way to tell my phone that locally stored copies shall NOT be deleted when the message on the server isn't more available?

Thank you very much in advance for your answers.

Greetings

Michael

[General Questions and Answers] 66mustang:
My German is only as good as that I learned at school and have since forgotten much of it!

This might help:

In Outlook you need to adjust the account settings (I use Thunderbird for web-mail so I can't be specific), but there is a setting that defaults to 'on' which is 'delete messages from server when downloaded'.

It's buried in Tools Accounts somewhere from memory, it will allow Outlook to download the messages but not clear the Inbox on the server so that when your PDA polls the account they are still there.

Beware, it will fill up quickly!

hey everyone ive been trying to decide since the 6th if i should keep my tp2 or get the imagio. i am a heavy texter 1500 texts a month at the bare minmum, i use my phone for most of my internet browsing, maybe 25 - 30 emails a month. also i have a 7mp camera that is usually at my house just cause its easier to carry one device and use my phones camera ( personally i have no gripe with the tp2 camera at all.) the things that bother me are the added weight of the tp2 because of the keyboard, the battery life (im constantly charging this phone) and the having to wait for the new manilla and 6.5. the imagio though is holding me off because of the lack of keyboard; im big i wear a size 13 ring and the onscreen keyboard on the tp2 is horrendous to me. is the imagios kb any better? any help you guys could offer (reasoning, suggestion, etc) would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
Well, personally I'd stay with the TP2 from what you describe. The screen size on the two phones is the same and you are a HEAVY texter (you seem to write a minimum of 50 sms a day) so I don't think there'll be a huge improvement with the Imagio onscreen KB if there is any to speak of. If you have no gripes with the camera and aren't jonesing for the vcast function I see no true advantage to "upgrading".

Hey all. I just bought a used Touch Diamond a few days ago and the stock screen protector it came with was already scratched and damaged. I can't install it without any bubbles, even with soap and water.

Do you guys have any recommendations for just a screen protector? I know there are previous threads about this, but a lot of the screen protectors mentioned back then aren't being sold anymore.

I already used Zagg cuz I had leftover Zagg but the rubbery texture kept me from sliding my thumb along nicely.

I was thinking Best Skins Ever but I believe they have a rubbery texture as well?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] boglll:
I tried both: BSE is a good product, less rubbery than ZAGG.

ZAGG protection to scratches/punctures is superior than BSE.

BSE is more user frienldy to apply.

The common problem I found is the dust which appears on corners after time.

IMHO to have the best solution is to "install" the screen protector only, not the body, and BSE has this version for the screen only, ZAGG hasn't (you have to cover sides as well). If you are good with cutter the best is ZAGG cut to fit the screen only (you need to cut it before applying...)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] hacker01:
How rubbery does BSE feel compared to an unprotected screen?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] boglll:
a little bit; less than zagg. as time goes by things improves.

ive tested every screen + body protector on the market and all are the same rubber thick as walls, spended like 100bucks on all..... nothing is good as a 2bucks screen protector.

Nothing more beautifull than a diamond without those ugly plastics, and the screen looks awesome with those cheapo protectors.
