[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hugoabpeixoto:
Hello,

I've searched through forums but i wasn't able to find any that asked for this. I'm looking for a replacment part for my diamond, the from home , call back panel.

since the plastic is coming out... I would like to buy a new part, do you know here i can find it??

Best regards.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] natanp:
if i understand you right, you mean that the plastic protection is peeling...

just buy a screen protector that comes with a protection part for this area.

just like this one on ebay - http://cgi.ebay.com/3x-LCD-Screen-Protector-FOR-HTC-Touch-Diamond-P3700-NEW_W0QQitemZ320492259683QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item4a9ed3c963
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] hugoabpeixoto:
I've found this, but i really don't understand if i can make it on my own...

I can see a lot of techie people getting very upset about what's been revealed about WP7S, and I'm starting to think that although I too was initially a bit ruffled, much of it really doesn't matter.

1. No SSD support

I always buy the biggest SSD I can, shove it into my new phone, and promptly forget about it. I can't recall the last time I upgraded to a bigger SSD without upgrading my phone at the same time, such is the rate of progress. Indeed, the iPhone, with its internal memory, always seems to be one step ahead of SSD-capable phones. My HD2 has a 16GB SSD, the iPhone has 32GB of memory. 32GB SSDs aren't even available. I never, ever take the SSD out of the phone once it's in there. So for me, removable memory just isn't an issue.

2. Multitasking

I thought I needed this, but looking at the apps I use on my HD2, I can only see one that really genuinely need multitasking, and that's Palringo. As far as I can tell, chat is going to be integrated into the Panels thingy so I probably won't even need to install Palringo anyway. Pausing apps when I switch away from them will be just fine with me.

3. Marketplace

I've never developed my own apps, nor do I intend to, nor do I operate in a corporate environment. Downloading apps from a central marketplace will be 100 times easier than having to trawl through Handango etc for some frankly pretty ****e apps to try to find decent ones. At least the apps in the store will have gone through a vetting process. I just hope Microsoft aren't as draconian as Apple in what they reject. Also, when downloading an app I won't have to choose between speed (install to memory) and space (install to SSD). I will get BOTH without having to decide at all. Sounds good to me!

4. Inter-app communications etc.

I don't believe WM6.5 apps do that anyway!

There you go, flame away - I for one will be much happier with a WP7S phone than I have been with WM6.5.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] vangrieg:
You are very wrong here.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jim Coleman:
Let me rephrase then - I don't believe any of the apps I use do it.

Cash Organizer

Pocket Informant

GCzII

KeePass

Palringo

TomTom 7
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] hyellow:
I don't like the idea that i have to install apps through marketplace, unless the downloaded apps could be saved on the internal/external storage so i can manually install it again if i have to hard reset my device if nescesary.

Imagine you're on vacation, somewhere across the border and suddenly you need to hard reset your device because... because you just had to.

now... installing apps through marketplace requires an data connection, wich of course, you don't have (besides wifi) if you were in another country. Or you'd like to pay for data roaming.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Ganondolf:
there is no external storage so without a pc u wont be able to put your info back on without a wifi or data connection which would work like myphone does now. not sure how u would put your apps back on without re downloading all of them from marketplace.

saying this im guess the phone is less likely to go wrong and will be very similar to how a iphone works.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jim Coleman:
From my own perspective, I never keep copies of the cab files for my apps on my phone anyway, so that wouldn't help me. Nore have I ever had to do a hard reset on my HD2 (except once for the dreaded lock password issue, now I don't use a lock password). Plus, as there IS NO SSD to store them on, it's kind of a moot point.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wmserver:
I don't like that Marketplace is the only way to install app.

That means MS can potentially shut out competitive product like google map, search etc. This is getting more like apple to me.

Also, if not SD support and no USB Device mode, it's a no go for me.

I'd like to store photos, music and even pc apps etc on my SD in case I need it.

Plus, should your phone become bricked, good luck trying to access to all your content.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jim Coleman:
Microsoft have already said they will allow all competitors' apps, and I hope that will always remain true. Regarding USB file transfer, have Microsoft specifically said it won't be supported? (I'm not sure)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Ganondolf:
ms has said u cant use wm7 as a usb drive, they also said that bing must be used for search, not sure if it must be used for maps too.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ramdroid77:
I think you still access photos, music etc. with the new media sync application (forgot the name). Indeed it seems to be a major feature of WP7!

But I also use my phone as USB stick, using it for non-media stuff, which I assume won't be possible anymore.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] gogol:
I experienced once incident during holiday to Spain, this is real story.

I was using TomTom and HTC Kaiser. All of sudden, the TomTom application stuck, I could not interact with it ... except hitting the soft-reset hole.

After soft reset, all content in my sd card gone, including the TomTom map.

I really hate that situation because I rely only on my TomTom :(

Lessen learned, I always keep second SD card on my bag during holiday which contain exactly the same.

So there you go, I think SD card is required.

The thing is, I am willing to sacrifice without SD Card. Probably the above incident was caused by "bad" sd card. With internal storage, probably it will be much more reliable. Ok that's fine.

But ........................

I want a way to EASILY store my files (big files) on the phone. Files like software utility etc. That's handy.

With no file manager ... and no sd card slot, I cannot picture this possible easily.

Probably I could use Zune software (ala iTunes)???

But that will defeat the purpose of having those files available all the time. Because other PC might not have Zune software!

Hmm, using email to transfer file? Yeah right, 3G is still slow compared to direct copy from sd card ! And imagine when roaming to pay data connection.

This is what I really dont like about WP7 ...

I can live without multitasking and side loading, no problem with that.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] gogol:
I remember yesterday, when someone asked Joe Belfiore ... "Will there be Mac support?"

His answer was something like "You dont need PC to be able to use Windows Phone 7 Series" ... "Try to not use PC" ...

:(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jim Coleman:
Hmm, it'll be a shame to lose the USB drive functionality, but I only really ever used that to load cab files onto my phone (which will be moot as marketplace will be the way to get apps) from my work PC, but I can live without doing that, especially as I shouldn't have been doing that anyway (ahem).

An advantage of using the Zune software to put files onto the phone will be the inbuilt compression and media format conversion though, which will be nice.

I should add that I carry a 32GB memorystick around with me (it's on my house keyfob) and use that for pretty much all my file transfer needs. My phone is so stuffed with mp3s that it has virtually no free space on its SSD, hence it's pretty useless for file transfer anyway!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] gogol:
Yes Jim, I think I must think the same approach.

At this moment, I also carrying 4GB super small micro sd card on my pocket.

I think I need to find one as a key-chain.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Shasarak:
Satnav application vendors often distribute their maps by selling you an SD card with the maps pre-installed on it. How's that going to work without an SD card slot? Are people going to download several gigabytes worth of maps over the data connection?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] vangrieg:
The way it works for iPhone is pretty straightforward - downloads over 10MB go via iTunes (you can choose to download everything this way, BTW).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] gom99:
double post
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] gom99:
I really don't understand this no SD card thing. If I interpreted the post where I read that information correctly. It's not even that there are no SD cards allowed, it's that they don't want removable SD cards.

I think they said the vendor could have an unremovable SD card if they chose (behind the battery). I'm hoping I mis-interpreted this, I see little reason or sense in having SD card support but making them non-removable. That would just further upset me about that :).

But I guess isn't not that big a deal since there's no file management on the device which is an even bigger problem. It's almost like they're trying to alienate their business clients.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] asadk:
You think iphones don't go wrong?

Anyhow as far as I can work out most of the new stuff in WP7S compared to WM is lame and actually relates to loss of functionality, with only the potential for easier development being offered in return. If useful apps materialise then maybe the damage won't be that bad but they are sacrificing everything for potential gain.

The fact is though that windows mobile grew on PDAs, and I think most people who want a WM phone want a PDA with a phone attached to it, with the feel of a "PC" in your "pocket". WP7S seems targeted at a completely different consumer who just wants a phone with a flashy touchscreen display. The thing is iphone does that perfectly well already. I don't see anything I want in WP7S, and there's nothing that has been described that I can't get elsewhere in an ordinary (modern) phone. It had better be a better product because I doubt there would be any customer loyalty between 6.5 and 7.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] vangrieg:
Well you obviously understand the no SD card thing - there's nothing you could do with the card in WP7S with no file system access.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] mazzarin:
Speaking of no SD card, will WP7S include a feature similar to Nokia's User Data Preservation? I'd hate for OS upgrades to require a task29 with no 'independent' memory.:rolleyes:
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] sm3rtlag3l:
No copy and paste! Does it really matter?

For sure it does. Just like SD cards, file system access and multitasking.

Are you masochist? Then get a WP7 phone. You'll have to email files to yourself to get them onto your device. Doesn't that make you horny?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] pilgrim011:
This Microsoft iPhone OS is actually worse **** than Apple's iPhone OS.:(

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] gogol:
I am now thinking to not buy WP7 ... no copy & paste? What else?

I will wait Android with 4.3" screen size now ...

I am not giving up hope, but probably WP7.5 or WP8 will be much better.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jim Coleman:
Have microsoft actually said there'll be no cut & paste or is this just another rumour?

Regarding file system access, it's not something I need. I use the file manager, but only because I have to to get certain things done on the phone, not because I want to. Usually I use it to trawl through the phone for stuff to delete to free up memory - on WP7S this wouldn't be an issue any more as they'll come with at least 8GB built in.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] gogol:
Jim,

It is all over the tech/gadget news sites, for example:

http://www.mobiletechworld.com/2010/03/16/no-copy-paste-on-windows-phone-7-series/

It is game over now, I really hate this kind of approach.

Welcome to Microsoft iPhone 7 Series.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jim Coleman:
OK that Does Really Matter. No cut & paste is a deal-breaker for me, so I'm going to look into either iPhone or Android, and I don't much fancy either of them.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] DMAND:
If every site out there *****es enough about it, if everyone tweets about no copy and paste, Im sure that they could include it before included before RTM
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] graememk:
I've been following Paul Thurrott's Twitter during mix, and he tweeted, :"So I was told that Windows Phone copy and paste is not definitely, but that they were looking at adding this before RTM. It's not there now."

I'm Pretty excited about WP7 but still disheartened about only getting stuff from marketplace, but it would mean a far better market place, current one is poor to say the least!

Im an amateur developer and the dev enviroment looks really nice and powerful, although i have to learn silverlight! all i need now is a good idea!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] plumdog70:
How about a copy and paste app...:eek:
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Kaostick:
Unfortunately, without the ability to run multiple apps at the same time, and without the ability for them to communicate with each other, I don't think this would be very helpful..

Wondering how I can add wallpapers to a launcher... I am working on a theme and want to add certain wallpapers to the launcher..is there a way to do this?
[Android Themes] eessel:
I believe you add it in the drawable folder which is in the res folder of the Launcher.apk. Just replace the images that are in there with the ones that you find originally there, but make sure you keep the same name. Just edit the image, and not the name. Hope that helps. :) (And another themer correct me if i'm wrong)

can you add to the one that are currently there or do are you limited to a set number?

I called T-mobile and they re-send the internet settings, they refreshed me on their network etc. and it`s the same issue, I am wondering if it`s due to me upgrading to different ROMS this week :eek:

Ok I am having the same issues. I tried to install HDWall cab on the latest march 9th energyrom with WM6.5.5 and Sense 2.5. It prompted me to restart so I did and ever since I tried rebooting it, its stuck on the bootloader. tried to hard reset a bunch of times and just goes back to bootloader. Took battery out a bunch of times. Tried to flash back to AT&T stock ROM via USB. Flash went to 100% and then when it tries to restart after flash, back to bootloader. Ran mtty1_1_.42_538 on PC and then tried to reflash to energyrom and still stuck on bootloader. The weird thing is when I try to flash via USB it the current Rom image is blank. Oh and also I attached an image of what mtty1_1_.42_538 shows when running the application. Please help chefs!!! You chefs are the brains!

At the bottom of the screen it will show the USB when plugged into the PC and Serial when unplugged like it should
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rabbitshooter:
Possible fix

Format your card again but in 16bit.

Copy the ROM image you wish to burn to the root of the card.

Make sure it is named RHODIMG.nbh and nothing else.

Before trying to burn this rom, I would actually burn HardSPL again to your phone.

Then insert card and see if it will reburn your rom.

I am using a 16GB card in my TP2 without problems, but found I actually had less problems by formatting it to 16bit. And any access to the card was actually faster than formatting it in 32bit.

Hope this helps

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] WillardZ:
I think it's not a matter of capacity so much as a matter of brand. If your 16GB is from eBay you might well have a defect/reject card. I have a 4GB A-Data from Newegg that I only use for flashing. Never saw any problem with it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] WillardZ:
It seems the read can not be read in two devices. That sounds like a defective card. Get your self a 2GB (non HC) card from a reliable source (maybe BestBuy) and keep it just for flashing.
